EDITORS PITTSBURGH, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7,1845 FINANCIERING IN KENTUCKY.—The whip have been so busy in their exultation over the exposed de falcation of M'Nuhy, that they have had no timeto say a syllable about a very singular and awkward looking business which has been partially developed among the genuine whig office-holders of Frankfurt, Ky.— It would seem that on taking the Executive Chair 4f the State of Kentucky, whit h he had such hot work to obtain, Gov OWSI.6Ir (or his Treasurer) receipted fur $76,019 25 which be was told by the retiring State Officers, was on deposite in the Bank of America, in the city of New York. These $76,000 were the pro• coeds of the sale of $lOO,OOO of 5 per cert. State Bowie, after deducting the amount expended in the purchaseof 234 shares of stock in the Bank of villa.—(By way of parenthesis, we must remark how strongly does this uansaction show forth the improvi dent and insane propensity of the whigs to dabble in nook speculation, and to lay the credit and resources of sovereign States under contribution to sustain cor rapt Banking incorporations. Just think of it—the State of Kentucky borrowing money at 5 per cent., to buy Bank Stock with! But this is first rate whig pot iey!)—WeU, it would seem that nothwithstanding be told the Legislature in his message, (what be doubtless believeno be true) that the State of Kentucky bad 76; 000 of a credit in the Bank of America; the Senate of Ky., because they thought the Governoi was mistaken, . or from some other cause, called on Gov Owner for further information. That functionary, it appears from-his own statement, on receiving the Senate's request, immediately went to work to see whether tits statement solemnly made in his first message, was correct! tie sent fur his whig predecessor in the Gubei natio. vial office, and asked' him about the matter—he said the money was in the Bank of America, he bad no doubt—but that Mr. Cox, the Secretary of the Board of Internal Improvement, could tell all about it. Gov 'OWILIT immediately wrote a note to that officer, to ascertain the exact whereabouts of the $76,000. It would seem that Gov. OrasLlT had done his best to sustain the statement of his first message that the money was in the Bank of America, bat still there was a mystery about the matter, until the Secretary of the Sinking Fund made a report oo the Finances, and there poor Gov. OWSLZT first discovered that he was "mistaken in supposing that the $76,000 remained in the Barth of New York!" Poor Ows Lay ! his "pre decessor," and the subordinates of that officer, mana ged to puU wool over his eyes in the most effectual -manner. While he, "good easy man," officially told the Legislature that there was a nice pile of money on deposit in New York, the Secretary of the Sinking Fund knew much better—and when it pleased him he corrected Gov. O's "mistake," by saying that "most, if " not all of the $76,000 has been applied, or will be needed, to pay interest already due on State Bonds." This financial matter.give rise to several suggestions. That Mr. OWSLET is dishonest we will not say—but all will agree that he has been anything but accurate in his official statements--and that in depending on the word of his predecessor, he was too confiding, and was certainly very much "mistaken." It argues little far the state of official intercouse among the whig ifitictionaries of Kentucky, that the Governor could not wsoartain what had become of the $76,000 until he saw .the Report of the Secretary of the Sinking fund. The Louisville Democrat thinks that the "money is missing" —.Governor OWSLET does not know where it is yet, and the Senate of Kentucky is by no means satisfied with the account given about it. We make no doubt that if these functionaries had been Democrats, the whigs would have felt called on to abuse them without stint. It is no wonder that these whig fibanciers sho.ild kick at the restraints im posed by the Independent Treasury Bill. Much inte 'rest will be felt to see how they will get out of this un rleasant dilemma. Joss RAND°Lni.—Tike testimony in the Randolph will cue, has been concluded in Richmond, and au ..thorities are reed on medical jurisprudence to show inutility.

WALKING VAILIETT ♦ND PROVISIoN Sroaa.—An old lady, apparently about 50 years of age, genteely dressed, with cloak end muff, was brought into the New York police office, on Saturday last, upon a charge of attempting to steal an umbrella. Upon searching her the following articles were found secre ted in her muff, viz. two ladies' caps, one hat feather, one worsted hood, two pairs of worsted mitts, one doz en spools of cotton, one gentlemen's glove, one worst edcuff, two cut glass tumblers, and four business cards, Tied to her waist, beneath her dress, were four large pockets, within which were found three large oysters, one boiled crab, one steak of fresh codish, seven large ' red onions, two very large flat Dutch turnips, uoe ap ple, one orange, one potato, three large pieces of taffy, four doughnuts, two Muffins, two fancy poundcakes, 1 and a copy of Bishop Onderdonk's triaL larln the legislative council of Wisconsin, Jan 9, the Governor's message being under consideration it underwent a searching review by Mr Strong. of lowa, who said that the bill which passed the last U. S. Sen ate for the improvement of the Fos and Wisconsin rivers, only made provision for the expense of examin ing and surveying the country. Mr Strong thus illus trated the learning of the late Governor • "He [Gov Tallmadge] calls our suention to the im• portions of improving the Fox and Wisconsin rivers —not the Neenah and Wiskonsan. He, Mr S., was happy to see that in repudiating the 'Neenah' and in knocking the k and the a out of Wisconsin, he bad given another proof that he was not boned up by the precedents of Dotyism, and was willing to conform to the usages and wishes of the people. The name 'Neenah' had been given to the Fox river by the eru dite Doty, and be. Mr S., would embrace the present opportunity in telling an anecdote, which will show how Dory.got the name, as well as the propriety of its application. One day as Doty sat upon the bank of Fox river in compnny with an Indian, be pointed to the river and asked the Indian what bn called it—'nee nab,' said the Indian. which being interpreted ,mesas water. The Indian thought the inquiry related to the name of the element-4mi thus we got Duty's 'Neenah.' " As to the whole debt of the territory, Mr Strong does not believe that it exceeds $25,000, and be goes t n to rebuke the Governor for soft-soaping the farmers. and for his aorre..ommitalism on all subjects touched upon in the message. The territory, be thinks, is worthy to have a Governor selected 'from its own citizens. The conclusion of this caustic speech is as follow“ °ln film, sir. T would call upon President Polk to remove our Governor, and give us in his plac e a ' firm and reliable democrat, selected from among our citizens, as one of his first official acts, an act which would rivet more firmly to him if possible the already warm affections of the Wisconsin democracy, pre vent division in and desertion from our ranks, and se cure beyond cavil or doubt an unconquerable demo atic majority when Wisconsin shall become a state, to swell the democratic majority of the Union." Mr Strong is the President of the Council, and as he represents a large portion of public opinion, Mr Tall madge is not likely to repose upon a bed of roses in his new home among the settlers. DaAMATICAL STATISTICII.—Thore are in Fiance, says one of the journals, 3,500 actors, 2,600 actress es, and 16,000 individuals attached in one way or oth. er to theatres, making a total of 22,000 persons living al-mud:6e budget of Thalia and Melpomene, which is estimated at 30,000,000 f. If these 30,000,000 f were divided equally, each person would not have I, 5001. a year; but as some of the privileged have 10,- 0001..20,000f. and 40,0001., it is easy to conceive how small must be the income of a large portion, and the misery that mot exist in the dramatic career. THRZIC THOUAAND DOLLARS RlEWkaD. — The Cherokee Council has passed a bill authorizing the Principal Chief to fiffer a reward of $3OOO for the cap ture of Thomas Staler and Ellis Starr, who, with the late Bean Starr. fierpetrateathe Yore tragedy, in Sep tember, 1843. $5OO each are also offered for the ap prehension of Samuel M'Daniel and Ellis West, who, a short time since, murdered two Cherokees at Evans ville, Ark., in a most atrocious manner. Btoonr Arraxis.—A young man by the name of Dudley, cut with a bowie knife the throat of Mt Kiger on the 21st, in Palmyra, Missouri. Dudley gave himself up. Kiger was dangerously wounded, and is' not expected to survive. The affray grew• out of an old difficulty between the parties. A merchant in Hannibal, Missouri,named W P Out. ley, shot an old man named Sparr in that place, on the 22d ult. Sparr died almost instantly. Some pre vious difficulty led to this tragical result. Ousley bail been arrested. M'Cuttar.—The Baltimore Sun of Tuesday, states that the Grand Jury on the previous day, found;a true bill against Henry M'Curry, for the murder of Mr. Paul Roux on the 13th of January last. His trial fix the offence will take place at tweedy a period as his condition will admit of. He is now, we learn, rapidly improving in his health, being able to take food of any kind. He has become quite composed in his mind, and states that he is perfectly resigned to the fate that may be awarded to him by the law, on his trial. He does not however, make an acknowledge. meat to any one of the perpetration of the deed, and is silent on that subject. A DISPUTE SZTTLIEW--The controversy between the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal Company, and the Philadelphia, ,Wilmington, and Baltimore Rail road Company, bas been brought to an end, the Legis lature of Delaware having refined to permit the ca nal company to charge toll on passengers. E arA very destructive fare occurred in an Oil Fac tory, in Baltimore on lam Monday evening. CONGRESS In the Senate, to-day, Mr Johnson presented reso lutions of the legislature of Louisiana, expressing the opinion that the people of that State in favor of the immediate annexation of Texas to the United States. Mr J took occcesion to say that he had, before he re ceived these resolutions, avowed himself to ma ny gentlemen in favor of annexation, if it can be done in a constitutional mode. He had his doubts as to whether the project passed by the House for annex ing Texas was the proper form in which it should be done, though he had not fully made up his mindupon the subject. Mr Barrow, his colleague, embt aced this as • casino to avow his hostility to annexation, in any form in which it could possibly be presented to the Senate.— He would oppose the admission of that independent State into the Union in any form regardless of the opin ions of the people. He avowed his purpose to enlight en his constituency by a speech such as would show that the admission of Texas would be destructive of the best interests ofLouisiana. Mr Porter presented a petition from Detroit, pray ing the annexation of Canada to the United States as a sole condition on which Texas shall be annexed. Mr Foster and Mr Baghy promptly denounced this attempt on the part of the abolitionists to bring the important question of annexing Texas into contempt by ridicule, and warned them against pursuing this course, the ten dency of which was to disrupt the friendly relations existing between England and the United States. Mr Porter defended the petitioners in their prayer, in a speech of some length. The whole debate will be hereafter published. The petition was finally kid on the table. The consideration of the post office bill was resumed. the question pending being on Mr Bag bis motion to continue the franking privilege to mem bers of Congress. The question was decided in the negative—yeas 16, nays 24. The franking privilege to the executive, heads of departments, &c., was struck out; but a motion by Mr Huntington, to strike out the Bth section, which reserves to members of Con gress the privilege of receiving letters, postage free, during each session, and for thirty days before and thirty days after each session, was rejected—yeas 15, nays 20. On Mr Huntington's motion an amendment was adopted--yeas 21, nays 18—the effect of which will be to preserve to publishers of newspapers and periodicals the right of distributing their publications to their subscribers in whatever way they please, with out being controlled by the Post Office Department, except so far as regards matter transmitted by mail. Pending a motion by Mr Ashley to provide from the treasury $4,500,000 against all contingencies of the experiment of cheap postage, the Senate adjourned. In the HOlllB. the bill providing for the establish ment of territorial government in the Territory of O regon, on which the previous question was moved and seconded on Setuniay, Was taken up and the amend ments made in Committee of the Whole being con curred in, the bill was ordered to be engrossed, and then read the third time and passed—yeas 140, nays 59. No other business of importance was transacted. [Globe, Feb. 3. Improvement ef Red River —T B !Award, of the Corps of U S Topographical Engineers. has submit ted a plan 14 the improvement of Red River, which if adopted, would occupy a period of ten years in its execution. The plan ptoposed by him looks to a com plete and permanent remedy, and this, he is of opini on, can only be effected by removing the Raft entirely, and restoring ro the main channel of the River, dimen sloes great enough to enable it to pass off the drift brought down by the floods. if this plan should be carried into execution, it is believed that the labor of snag-boats will - be needed occasionally, and nothing more. Captain L. estimates the cart of the work at $186,500. and the proportion required for the first year at $80,500.

An interesting, though rather degrading, question is likely to arise in connection with the trial, it being now stated that this "Bashaw of three tails" is of negro blood, having been born a slave of a colored woman in Annapolis, and entered into matrimonial alliance with three white women, the marriage in such mopes being according to the law of Maryland, "void and of no effect." Should this prove to be the state of things under the indict meet, the singular fact will be presented of an offence against a most important social law, shielding the criminal in its perpetration by the additional heinous. nem of its character,for which there is DO penal enact ment.
