CORRESPONDENTS
In reference to communications which may appear
inner paper, we have one or two remarks to make.—
We will insert none without the name of the author be
ing thane:vie known to us, and when inserted, must al
ways be taken an expressive of the views of the writer,
and not The editor of this paper, unless the views so
espreseed are editorially remarked upon and approved.
TERRIBLE EEFLCSION OF SPIRIT Ges.—Yesterday
evening, just after dark, several gentlemen connected
with the Protestant Methodist Church, recently built
se the corner of the Commons, Allegheny city, were
engaged in making some alteration in the fixtures,
when the gas ignited from a candle held by one of the
men, and exploded, making a tremendous noise.—
Fear or five persons were injured by it, and one of
them is considered in a very dangetoUs situation. The
Gas appetites, we learn is the invention of a gentle
man of Cincinnati.
Suva NVano.—ltwillhe seen that the Democratic
Committee cf Correspondence for the county, by the
chairman, give notice to the Democrats of the Gth
Ward, to attend at the house of Henry Rea, on Sat
urday next, and elect Delegates to the County Con

from the fact drat at the time the Committee fixed the
day for chosing delegates, the Gth Ward was not fi
nally admitted into the city or organized as a Wurd,
and of course was not included in the original notice
for delegate elections.

"W ARS AND RIINtoaS 07 WAR3."— Troops for
Texas.—The Baltimore Republican of Monday,
says: Our city was rife with rumors on Saturday
morning, that Mexico had declared war against the
United States, but as we received no intelligence from
the South to that effect ; we paid but little attention to
it, and in a short time our citizens were convinced
they were "startled from their propriety" without suf
ficient cause. The report given in the Clipper on
Saturday, that Major Ringgold's fine troop of U. F.
Flying Artillery, had been ordered to ho in readiness
to take up the line of march for Texas, is confirm( d
and we learn that they arc prepared to move at a mo
ments warning. Should we come to blows with Mex
ico, we shall expect to hoer a good nceount of Maj.
Ringgold and his unrivalled troop. Their departure
from this city will cause universal regret among all
classes of citizens. The Gth Regiment of U. S. In
fantry, it is said, have also been or doted uff. and that
the troops generally at all the posts on the Atlantic
seaboard, have been directed to be held in readine ss
to march for the Fame destination. These are
mere precautionary movemen:s on the part of ut.r
government, and afl'ord no certain indication of war
With Mexico. although such an event mnv occur,
though we have our doubts.

FROM TEXAS
The fast running steam packet Alabama, Captain
Windlu, strived at New Orleans on the 2d ult , from
Galveston, bringing the Picayune files of popers from
that city up to the 30ili ult.
The Alabama arrived at Arkansas on the 25th ult .
and on the following day. with the assistance of the
Undine, hich had just got in. landed Gen Taylor
and the U S troops, the former had taken over.
From all accounts, it would seem that the Texan
Convention is progressing rapidly with the business
before it. It is thought that the membets v. ill get
through with every thing by the middle of this month,
August. The seat of Government, it is said, will
probably be continued at Austin for the next four or
five years.
Dr D A Perry, of Washington county, Texas. was
murdered s few days since by a negro, formerly the
property of the doctor. Although there was no wit
nesses to the art, the negro was suspected, accused,
confessed the deed and has been hung.
Below we give an extract of a letter from Copt
Grice, of the Undine, giving an account of the landing
of the U S troops in Texas. It is dated ;
Aransas Bay, July 23.1345.
On Saturday the 26th. instant, the American flag
was first planted in Texas by authority, upon the south
end of St Joseph's Island, upon wloch I am landing
the troops from the Alabama. inside tle hay. There
are now 500 men encamped here, and the scene is full
of interest. The other vessels with troops are nut ex
pected to arrive for several days.
Riotous.—A pottion of our citizens finding that
theemployment of runnets by stenmbonto, is a nuis
ance to the travelling public, to the business of the
cit., and liable to cross abuses, have (discountenanc

'Fbese efforts have been met with thi eats and the pat

are riotous and should be quelled by our city fathers,

GREATLY REDUCED PRICE-PROM $ TO $3 PER A N
NEM.-SINGLE COPT, 4 25 cKsTs.
Prospectus of the next (or 171 h) Volume.
THE PRICE of the DEMOCRATIC REVIEW has
heretofore been too high—not for its size, cost,
and character, but for the means of lens of thousands
of readers who would be glad to receke it, and among
whom is is highly desirable that it should circulate.
Fcr the purpose, therefore, of largely widening the
range of its usefulness, and of multiplying the norm•
hers of those to whom it may be accessible, it has been
determined, simultaneously with the great reduction
in the expenses of the postage, to reduce its subscrip
tion price also, ft om Five to only Three dollars; an d
when several unite in subscription, toes law as $•2 50,
or even $:2 30 per annum.
This very large reduction in the receipts (accompa
nied with but a comparatively small diminution of its
expenses) involves, of course, an entire sacrifice of
profit upon it, unless compensated by a vast multipli
cation of its subscribers. There will be at the outset
only a small reduction in its number of pages; soon to
be restored to its old number, without increase of
price, when the anticipated success of the experiment
shall justify it.
The PORTRAITS or DISTINGUISHED DEMOCRATS
will be continued—engraved in better and more costly
style than heretofore.
The Posysce: will hereafter, for any distance, be
only five and a half cent.; it has heretofore been,
for over 100 miles, eighteen cents.
IVe look fur nn extension of circulation to be reckon
ed by tens of thousands, ns the result anti compensa
tion of this great reduction of price. Every friend of
the work, and of the Democratic principles and cause,
is confidently appealed to, to exert himself with an
active interest to procure it subscribers; both to extend
its usefulness, and to carry it successfully through the
crisis of thi= great reduction of its receipts.
Those who have paid in udvancs fur the coming
;ear, will receive it, at the reduced tale, for a year
and u half.

LAST LIKENESS OF GENERAL JACKSON
The admirable Daguerreotype of General Jackson,

his death, has been purchased for the use of the Dem•

will be engraved in the finest style of mezzotint of ex

declared by Mr Van Buren and others to give a more
perfect idea of the good and great old man than any
other likeness; and ought to be possessed and framed
by every friend who loves or reveres his memory.—
