MR Paittirs:
.1 see its your paper, a few mornings since, in en rtr
cis OR ems Mayoralty, you give your decided prefer
' once for a "Citizons' Candidate" for that important of
and your reasons are, that they have always made
the moat impartialand able city mo;istrates. I ask,
who dore mean? Have .you re
mean? to the able,
tiosporMil and dignified administration of the pre
. etrasldayorl An answer to the above is requested by
a - PROTESTANT DEMOCRAT.
We have no hesitation in satisfying the doubts of a
6 'Protestant Democrat." In our article on the Mayor
alty,we referred to the administration of Dr J R M'
CusTOClit. Mr M'Ciintock was elected as a "Citi
zens' Candidate," and mon of all parties can bear
witness to the impartial manser in which he discharg
ed thecluties!cf the office, and the pro:Tel-nos condition
of the affairs of thissity while they were under his con
trol.
The present mayor, Vlll3ll first elected, was a party
candidate, and his political friends expected that ho
would be a party Mayor. We believe he has not ex
actly answared their proscriptive views, but whether
he is fully convinced of the evil consequences of having
the ofce•filled by a violent pasty man who is mere
anxious to please political partizans than the citizens
at . large, we have nut been informed. We would not
care much to what party the candidate belonged. so
thst he was liberal, honest and capably, and would not
let party canaiderations control him in the discharge of
the duties of hisoffice. If the present Mayor possess
ea these qualities, "Protestant Democrat" may apply
our remarks to hint, if he chooses.
It is said that Ole Bull arrived at New York on
Evacuation day; and although he by no means con4id.

SOUTH CARCILINA.—Governor Hammond, in his
annual message to the Legislature, sets down the ac
tual debt of the State at $3,495,164,34, to be re
deemed from 1845 to 1862. Besides this, the State
owes two millions for a guaranty to the Cincinnati and
Charleston Railroad Company. The governor, ad
dressing the Legislature, says, an expression of your
opinion en the annexation of Texas to the Union
might not be improper.
SP ZCIE.—Thc amount of specie in the Boston
Bank 3 exceeds their note! in Pirculation one half.—
The principal dopn3ite3 or specie are in the l'sl3r

DESCRIPTION OF THE. NEW MF.XICAN COUNTF.R
FEIT Colx.—The Mexican papers notice the emission
of counterfeitdallms, and state that the government is
institutinz a rigid inquiry into the matter. In the spu
tious coin the word licpublican is badly executed, the
«pace between the two first qylables being very great,
arid tho leaves of rtopal which appear to spread from
the earth on the reverse of the coin, are larger in the
counterfeit than in . the genuine specimens.

10A THE POST
Travellers should select Boats provided with
t Evan's Safety Guards for preventing Explosion of
Steam Bailers
IT would be well for the traveling community to
bear in mind that their security depends entirely
upon their own encouragement of boats that have or
may be at the expense of procuring the above appara
tus. And that every individual making such selec
tions is contributing towards a general introduction of
lan invention admitted by all men who understand the
r principles of the Steam En; - ine, to be a sure preventa
tive against those dreadful disasters. Yuu have cer
tainly, in the hundreds of explosions that hate already
taken place, their almost daily occurrence, and the
, thousands of lives that haye already been lost, a suffi
cient warning, and inducement to make inquiry fel. a
Safety guard Boat, and in every case to give it the
preference. They have went to an additional expense
thatyour lives may be secure. Ought you not therefore
to meet them with a corresponding degree of liberality,
and by your preference show that you appreciate their
laudable endeavors to stop this awful sacrifice of hu
man life. They do not charge more than other boat:;
their accommodations in other respects are equal, and
in marry cases superior, and as there is one leaving
Pittsburgh every day, why will you run any risk, when
it is so completely in your own power to avoid throe dis
asters.
All boats marked thus [*] in the List of Arrivals and
Departures, in another part of this paper, are supplied
with the Safety Guard.

A • TRACT consistingof one hundred and forty-six
Cl. acres of timber land, situated immediately on
the Ohio river, in the State of Indiana, between Cincin
nati and Louisville, a suitable location w establish a
very profitable WOOD YARD—a great majority of
the timber being beech and poplar. It is a well known
Net that cordwood of this kind is always bought in pre
ference to any other by steam boats. There is no point
on the Ohio river where good wood will bring a better
price. In addition to this, there is no part of the west
ern rivers navigated by so many steamers—and hence
the great demand for good cordwood. It is obvious
that this land is more valuable on account of the tim
ber, as the clearing of less than onehalf will more than
pa" the original cost of the land. The poplar logs can
be very advantageously rafted to Louisville, where
they have always brought a good price, and are much
used fur building purposes. The soil is remarkably
rich—and when cleared of its valuable timber, will suit
in every respect for all kinds of farming purposes. The
produce of the farm, by water, is within a half of a
day's reach of two of the finest markets in the western
country, namely, Cincinnati and Louisville.
Any person wishing to make a safe and productive
investment, would do well to purchase the above de
scribed property.
For further particulars, please apply soon to the
Western Real Estate Agency of
