SMITH, XDITORS PITTSBURGH, TUESDAY JULY 2, 1845 COOP TV Coff V CPI T .—Tbose wbe feel interested in the nomination of a democratic ticket, will observe that the Chairman has issued • call for a meeting of tea Committee of Correspondence, to be held on next Sato:day week. The Committee will fix on a darfor the election of delegates in the several die aril a few days after we will have a full ticket la tlta Eleht In October the people have to elect four members of the Legia'ature, a Recorder, a Register, a Clerk of Courier Commissioner and Auditor. Many good men will be brought forward fur all these offices, and we have no doubt that whoever the convention may genet to fill them, will be deserving of the confi. deticeied support of the people of the county. It is of the utmost importance to the citizens of Pittsburgh, sod, in fact of the whole western part of the state, that our legislative ticket should be composed of active , intelligent and energetic men, whose talents and expe rience qualify them to take a leading part in a matter of much importance to our interests which will be brought before the next Legislatore. We believe that there are but few men among us, of any party, who are not in favor of the extension of the Baltimore Rail Road to thi; city. To have thi s matter properly attended to, it is all-important that we shettlaird able representatives from Allegheny coun ty, and in order that our representatives shoold have %proper influence with theMajorit y in the Legislature, it is necessary that they should be members of the democratic petty Many of the more sagacious and moderate of our opponents, think it the height of folly to suppose that the whig candidates, if elected, could exercise the slightest influence in favor of the measote to which our citizens are looking with so much solici tude, and they are waiting anxiously to see who the democrats will bring into the field, sn that they can use their influence in favor of their election, and thus ren der an important service to the Rail Rood. We therefore hope, that our friends in County Con 'cation, will make a judicious selection, and present pucka ticket to the people as will be a guaranty that the important interests of the city will be ably sustain ed in the Legislature next winter. TINS Ntle P. 0. LAW.—The papers in ell the eastern citiesstate that an immense increase of letters, pouredinto their Post Offices on the let inst., and think that the increased correspondence will be suffi cient to keep ap the revenue of the department to the old standatd. We doubt that, but, at the same time de not expect as great a deficiency as some appre hend. The operations o the new law will be of great benefit to the ritiev, but we fear it will be of serions inconvenience to the citizens who depend upon the small country of f ices. Hundreds of these will, no doubt. he sasp , •nded, as it will be impossible for the department to get trustworthy men to take charge of them for the trifling renumeration allowed by the pre• sent law. Many of the country Post Masters have already resizned, and many others will follow their example, for it is not to be expected that men will incur the responsibility nod labor incident to the office of Post Master, without receiving a reasonable recom pense. In • lit :le time it will be found !bat in many of the details atilt, law, it does not work well, and e• ex pect that one of the first ditties of. the nest Congress will be to refhrm m•my little abvigo. nnrl in its operation, that were not noticcd when it waa first adopted. Loy Jurract Re nes e.— k very humorous and "ttuthfal piece of poetry. heeded "Why don't you take the papers?" has been going the rounds lately. It area written by G. B. Wsitrs, Esq , n member of the craft, and shows the dangerous consequences of re fusing to take the papecs, and of neglecting to pay fur them after taking them. We find it in some of the pa pers attributed to N. P. Willis. This is a piece of injustice to Mr. Wallis, who should not be deprived of the merits of showing us the very reprehensible con duce of those who wrong the printer. We give an ex tract from the piece which contains a very instructive lessen: we published the whole some time ago: knew two friends en much alike As e'er you sew two stomps; And nolihrenologiet could find, A difference in their bumps. - "Each had a farm of equal worth, 'A pretty wife to keep— above boys. three horses, and a cow, Ade and twenty sheep.

'A WOXAN LOMECHKR HUSEI•ND IN, AND NUNS.— Three months ago, says the Boston Post, down east, the wife of Mr Bernard, painter, left him for better or worse, and he knew not whither she went. Yester day afternoon, however, by accident be fell in with her in this laity, and she agreed to talk matters over with him in a constable's office, in the second story, No 1 Franklin Avenue; but she no sooner got him inside than she closed the door upon him, locked it on the outside, and ran for dear life down stairs, and up the avenue. Mr Bernard lost two or three minutes in de ciding what to do. He then threw up the window, wad undertook to lower himself down by the aid of two projecting signs, but they gave way, and he fell all in a beep on the pavement, which is almost as hard as his wife's heart. After picking himself up, and as suring himself that he had not broken his neck, nor knocked his bead off, exclaimed—" Where is she-- Which way did she run?" A dozen a voices answers d the street;" and then off he started, like a loco motive, his hair and coat-tails sticking out behind like rudders to steer him on his course, and nothing has Item seen or heard of him since.

Yarning Nests of the2oth I u1t..,) was the last ever written by the departed Hero; but the Nero Orleans Courier, of the 17th inst., in forms us that there is in that city a still later letter from him, written only two days before his death. The Courier says: "We bare seen a letter from General Jackson. In hai, friend Gen Plauche, of this city, dated Jnne 6. and postmarked Nashville,June 7. It occupied two pages of letter paper. written and signed in the vete ran's well known hand-writing, and without more than an ordinary indication of feebleness and old age. The frank on the outside is also In his hand writieg, and his signature is in unusunlly bold chars tters, re markably uniform end bold. The direction is in the writing of another. The letter relates chiefly to the General's private business. Near the conclusion be say s, "my health is bad." Its tone, its length and the characters of the hand-writing would induce R per son, nut acquainted with the circumstances of the case, to doubt that it is the work of one so aged and enfeeled by a protracted and cruel disease. "My health is bad," are almost the concluding words. The eflltrt of writing a long epistle probably cau.ed the weakness which obliged him to call upon another to subscribe the name of the gentleman to whom it is ad- I dressed.

ANOTR RA DORT..—Tbe PhiladelphisSun of the 4th sayer: Two gentlemen duellists, and seconds, arrived here from New York on Wednesday night, on their way to Bladensburg, the place selected for the grand exhi. hition. One of the principals is a prominent member of the Empire Club, and the other a keeper of a splen did gaming house in Vesey street. New York. The result will be mode known as soon as ascertained. ARTIFICIAL ARM.—Mr. Phelps, of N. York city, known as an ingenious constructor of trusses, abdom inal supporters, and other useful apparatus, completed an artificial arm last week for a lady in Maine, which is an admirable substitute for the lust member. Ho took a cast, in plaster, of the limb on the left side, and then matched it in wood. The elbow works de lightfully; the wrist has both flexion and rotation, and all the fingers, and even the thumb, which has the true bale and socket-joint, are an skillfully made, that. when gloved, no gentleman who was permitted to take her atm under his own, would mistrust that it xas a wooden one. Nearly half the arm. from the shoulder down, was preserved for a stomp, which slips into a socket, and the whole is made lust and kept in place by attachments to a thoracic belt, analogous t com mnn stays. By the stump, any direction the Isdy chooses can he given to the extremity but the flexion and extension is a Iroitly brought about by the other hand. A New ARTICIA or Ex.roax.—The N Y A tneri ! earl Republican states that a Yankee broom maker in , Ohio has leased twelve hundred acres of bottom land, on the Scioto river, near Columbus, and planted the entire plat in broom corn, with the view to export the crop to England, where he intends to proceed himself, and engage extensively in the manufacturing of brooms. taking with him the wood fur the handles, and the machinery used for the purpose. Brooms made from the American broom corn are so much superior, for we rims uses, to nay thing to be had in England, tha t they have become, within a few years pest, quite a fa vorite in that country enders now exported thither in large quantities. AN INCInNNT.—There were, on Friday. says the New York Express, in the drawing rnom of the City Hctel, Mr Van Buren, ex-President: Mrs John Quincy Adams awl family of ex-President Adams, Miss Cott., the twice of ex-President Madison, and Mrs Mickleham, the twice of ex-President JefTerrni.

True Sun, in a n article upon the statistics of cutlery in general and penknives in particular. thus speaks of the latter arti cle:—Penknives have lost some of their importance since the intrnduction of metallic pens. Formerly every one carried a penknife. Now it is rare to find them in the pocket. They are chiefly retained by those industrious persons aho are always paring their finger nails, picking their teeth, and whittling shingles."

They are divided into several parties.

THE GREAT LAKEII.-A corsespondent of the 800. ton Post, writing from Mackinaw, has the following in teresting paragraph:: "The Huron is It splendid lake; it has an arm of more then 20,000 square miles. and contains five thousand islands! The *Temge depth of its water is one thousand feet, but a lead has been sunk ofr Sagnew Bay eighteen hundred feet. w ithont touching bottom— that is, twelve hundred feet below thu level of the ocean. The surface of the lake is five hundred and eighty-four feet above the ocean. The temperature of this water is fifty-three. and no liquid can be clearer then it is. "The St. Clair river, where it receives the water . from the lake is but eighteen feet deep, and not six hundred feet wide, sn Huron would be drained but little if the Falls of Ningare should recede to Lake Erie. The sell down the St Clei.. river forty miles, was very beautiful. The river is narrow; I could throw a stone any where in it from its centre to the American or Canada .hoer•. On the Canada side it is !Willed by the French end Indians. Large numbers of Indians, who had been removed to the "far west" by our gov ernment, have returned, and obtained permission of the British government to settle on these lands. An extensive "reservation" has been assigned to them. The water of Lake St. Clair is shallow, and its nav igation very difficult. We scraped the bottom for half en hour, coloring the water with the yellow sand.— Great delay and expense is incurred by vessels, which might be avoided if government would improve the channel of this important therctighfere for a few miles. As it is, steamboat, and vessels arriving at the foot of St. Clair river in the evening, have to lay by for day light to cross the "flats," and, when deeply loaded, have to be lightened before they can get over. This should not be on so important a navigation. FOOT RACE In the foot race which came off on the Beacon Course, on Tuesday, one mile fur $300,a youth named William Bat low, of 18 years of age, was the winner, in 4m. 36.. said to be the best time ewer made in this country, the Iroptois Indian was second, making the time 4m. 425.

TEXAS ARRIVAL OF T--HE STEAM 1.11 1 r; SHIP ACADIA. The Steamship Acadia arrived at Boston, on Wed nesday eveni is. at 4 past 10 o'clock; making her pas sage is about 134 days, notwithstanding some deten tion, occasioned by meeting with icebergs. We have London end Liverpool papers to the 19th of June, the 1 day of sailing. Dr Lardner was in Pads at the latest dates. The Acadia brings 83 passengers, 67 from Liver. pool. and 16 from Halifax. Among them we notice Bishop Renrick of Philadelphia. The Maynooth Bill was again discussed in the House of Lords on the 3d and 4th of June, the measure being denounced on the one bend "not as a boon to Ireland, but a surrender to Rome," and commended on the oth er as "singularly wise, benevolent. and Christian, car rying out the great rule of doing to others as we would wish that others should do unto us," and would be re• ceived with cordiality. and as an indiention or a kindly spirit by the mass of the people. There were two discussions. On the first—Lord Roden's Amendment (for a s-leet committee to inquire into the teaching and discipline at Maynooth;) there appeared, Contents 59; Nontents, 155; Majority Realest the amendment 96.

The Bill passed I its third reading on the 16th by a vote of 181 to 80. Thus only wanting the royal signature to hecnme a law —which it has era this undoubtedly received. The present Government has struck a formidable blow at popular prejudice in this M synonth measure, and the recoil has been terrible; but still no advance has been made towards the permanent pacification of the country for which the sacrifice was made. There never will be peace in Ireland—it is folly to exrect it i —while the Anglican church in that country exists in its present sumptuous indolence, in its enormous wealth —a living mockery and libel on the misery of the peo ple. The richest church existing nm 'nit the poorest people in Christendom—and that church not their own —mutt always be an eye-sore, ft cancer, a never-ceas• ing rause of irritation. The knife, sooner or later, I must be applied - to cut nut this unsightly excrescence. IRELAND The Monster Repeal Banquet, at Cork, for which preparations have been long in progress, took place on Moorl'l3 the 9th, at the Imperial Clarence Rooms. About ROO persons were at the table, and more than ROO ladies were present as spectator.. The Mayor of Cork presided. According to the reports in the Cork journals, the banquet far eclipses any similar proceed ing. Mr. O'Connell, emboldened by recent events, de livered a speech characterized by a more than ordinary share of eloquent vehemence, rejecting with scorn the c-inciliatory advances of the Minister as "mean and paltry attempts to swamp the great ends of agitation. Mr. Hodges. the Government rt•porter was present Ibroughout the proceedings, as well as at these of Tara, Novae, and such of the renewed minister-meetings as have been already held. Mr. O'Connell on Tuesday proceeded down the river in ono of the steamers; on Wednesday he attended an open meeting. and :n the evening made a speech at the People's Dell. and on Thursday morning he left Co k. and arrived at Merrion square, Dublin, on Friday evening. The honorable l gentleman proposed setting out immediately for Lon don. Fresh information had arrived in Dublin aim affray between the military and the Leitrim peasantry. in which the latter have •uQ'ured the loss of six killed, and a great number wounded. A reinforcement of military have been sent forward by express. and much apprehension exists that martial law will hare to be procl aimed. The proceedings of the Repeal aposciation of the 9th and 16th insts. were interesting. The week's rent on the former occasion was announced to he £378, and that of the latter £130,166. 6d. FRANCE. Correspondence of die "Eunvean Time,." Pasts, June 16. 11145.—Although the fortnight that has elapsed since 1 last addressed you hits been a very inlay one indeed for both Chambers, few (pea tions have been dwelt upon of interest to readers on the other side of the Atlantic. Among those few ques tions, the most prominent is that cf . Texas. You are aware that the constant efforts , of the Opposition in this country is to cry down the foreign policy of the Conservative CahMet of M. M. Sault and Goixot, and to represent it as truckling in all things, great or small, to the imperious dictation of the English Govern. meat. In pursuance of this role. M. Billbault, one of the most eminent members of the opposition, charged the Government with !riving joined England in oppos ing the annexation of Texas to the U. States, in re turn fur the concession England has made to France of the right of search treaty. M. Guizot (who is quite restored to health, and who re-appeared in the Clammier on Tuesdev) denied that any stipulation re lative to Texas has been made wiih regard to the a bandonment of that treaty. He then observed, that if Texas was desirous of annexing itself to the United States, the French Gorvenment /led nothing to say to it; but he admitted that it would be more agreeable to that Government, and tense consistent with its in terests, if the annexation did sot take place. The report that the American Government intends to reduce its tariffs, has afforded the greatest satisfac tion to the commerce of Paris. The project, set on a font some years ago, but on. accountably abandoned, for the establishment of a number of steamer. to ply between the principal pone of France, her transatlantic colanies, and New York, has been revived, and will shortly, it ii expected, be. come a law. The proposed scheme is of it somewhat gigantic scale, for, in addition to the great lines of communi:ation between France, her colonial posses• sions, and the United Slates, branch lines will he es. tablished far serving different parts of the northern and southern continent" of America. The law, referred to in my teat, providing for the gradual abolition of slavery in the French colonies, has passed both Chambers, and another law for intro ducing European laborers into the calonies is under consideration. The new Customs law, modifying in some important particulars the duties on imported ar. tides, has been sanctioned by royal ordinance, and is now the law of the island. From Spain, Russia and Poland there is no news of importance. GERMANY The Schism in the Church continues to excite great , attention; but like most schisms a schism has taken place in it, a large number of those who joined it hav ing sepatated from it. and (if so profane a form of ex pression may be pardoned) set up in business on their own account. That this schism is a formidable thing for the Catholic Church no one can doubt; but reflect ing men think that when the novelty of the thing shall have worn away, it will not only make no more con verts, but lose very many of those who are must devo ted to it. We all know the charm religion.' novelty possesses—a charm so great that any impostor, how ever ignorant or impudent, has only to commence a sect to gain converts; but as novelty soon degenerates into familiarity, nod familiarity into contempt, the success gained is but of'short duration. In Germany religions novelty has, perhaps, greater charms than it has even elsewhere, because politics being forbidden to the people, religion is the only eubject on which in tellect can develop itself without dread of prison; hut the Germans, with all their speculativeness, are too stitch attached to the old beaten ways of of their fath ers, to follow finally length of time the apostles of a new faith. From Switzerland, Belgium aid the east, there is no news of importance. A most terrible revolution has broken out in the Holy Land between the Druses and Christians. who were slaughtering each other, the Turks encouraging these hostilities. Thousands have been killed and many churches burnt. A crisis Is about taking place in Syria. In the miscellaneoux news we see nothing of par ticular interest. The following item is as important as any thing we notice: The importation of a quantity of leather, duty free, and casks of shoe pegs, by the Yorkshire, Capt. Bai ley, from New York at Liverpool, has caused some a. musement, end amongst the sans of Crispin, a great deal of satisfaction. There's nothing like leather." 113 10 " The words„'Pay the printer," it is said,can be arranged so as to reed two thousand ways.
