The City Election.

data of the Dernoeract 1Y it.ti x J. Dowaap, Eaci.
of the whivi B r. C. MORGAN. E.q of the Native
Americans, and Dr. J. P. Gazatst, of the Libevy.
The contest %ill Le a spirited one. The flemoc
racy will struggle manfully for the ascendency, be-1
lieving that a thorough reform is necessary in our t
municipal exits. TX‘ election is one of much im
portance to the people. The Lei payer. should care
fully investigate the affairs of the city and freely ex- :
press their opinions es to the manner in which they
have been attended to by the .'poweis that be " Du
ring the pest year the eels, je p of som e of t h e c ity „fn.
- faittr have been tuereaed and others reduced, and
a new office, that of Clerk to the Mayor, has been
created, and a striary of thrr e hundred dollar: per
annum attached to it. The whole doings of the city
authorities, aill. of course, he freely examined, and
we feel well wiser/id, that no part of their tifficiel con
dect will be more tigidly scrutinized titan the distri
butiun of the relief fund. The distribution of this
fund which ought to have been cetrustell to a com
mittee of the sufcmeis. was solur terily assumed by
the eouncils, and they are now called upon to submit
the whole matter for the inspection of the public.—
Vt'e hope that a full report tel l at once be given to
the people. It is certeiu'y time that the donors were
informed as to the disposition which hos been made of
the money generously contributed by them for the re•
Lief of the needy.
Tat MILITIA Of THr 1:51TID ST AT C.3.—The nut-o
ber of militia enrolled and subject to draft in the eni.
Led Stntet , is, seetording to the Army Register, 1,759..
710. From the date M many of the returns, they must
necessarily be fur below the true standard, but then
may be saf..ly stated at 2,000,000 men. One tenth
of the actual militia face of the country would give an
army of 200 000 men. This is the number contempla
ted in the resolutions for organizing the militia, w hich,
it is said, Col. Benton intends to report in the Senate.
F, , PtC.PI Foe Ontoom.—This Manchester
Goardidn states that Admiral Se)mor Is very soon to be
upon or near the coast of Oregon with one ship of 80,
one of 50, one of 13, and one of 16 guns. The same
paper says that the Americans are rapidly rein
forting their squadron in t he Nair. Down to a re
cent period it consisted of two first class frigates of
60 guns, two large corvette■ and a schooner. It has
recenth i.een reinforced by another corvette, the Ports
mouth, and two more large frigates, the Raritan and
the Congress, on their way thithtr. Adding to these
their vessels in 11. e Chines Seas. says the Guanlian,
they will as•rmbie n free of six frigates (ench as
large as an Engli,l: 74 gun ship,) fine corvettes, one
brig and one schooner.
IVRIRDICTION or tan STATE or VIRGINIA —The
General Court of Virginia hes decided twelve judge.
to three—in the Parkersburg kidnaping case, that the
jurisdiction of the State of Virginia extends to the ac
tual water litte of the Ohio river, at the particular
time of any occurrence. This line, of course, is nut
filed, but shifts, according to the rise or fall of water
from freshets or low water. If this line be agreed
upon, the offence charged upon the Parkersburg prison.
era will come within the jurisdiction of Virginia.
THE Sstat.t. Poe.,—We regret to state, says the
Baltimore Sun of the instant, that the sinull pox
in this city is evidently on the increase, as it is also in
Philadelphia and Now York. In Philadelphia during
the past two weeks them has been forty-six death.
from it—in NSA , York twenty-three, and in Baltimore
twenty-six. As this is a disease on which the cold
weather has &contrary etLet from what it generally
has on contagious affections, there is but one course
for our citizens to pursue, hi order to suppress i:■
ravages, and that is a general vaccination. It should
be the doty of every head of a family to act promptly
in thematier, not only a to his children, but to the
older members of his household. Lot all who have
not been vaccinated for twelve or fiftemiyears, be re
vaccinated, as it is an ascertained fact that vaccination
in many persons tortes its power within th,t period.—
When persons are te•vaccinated, and it does not take,
they have the assurance that they are exempt from the
disease, and if it does take, the sam, result is secu
red.
A BIG flt tacss.—The receipts of the lar of the
St• Charles Hotell, New Orleans, pay the expenses of
the entire establishment—being in the middle of the
day at the rate done hundred dollars an hour, and from
six to eight hundred dollars a day;—so says the Pica•

•► to them may seem best, the seurilous personal at
tacks of the *tithes, we deem it alike due to them ea
publictiefficers. to the - interests of the State, and to our
own interests as Transporters, to gibe an unqualified
denial to every word of the communication which re
lates to the nast and present condition of the Alleghe
ny Portage Railroad.
We have no hesitation in se.ing that the charge
that the repairs of the road lino been neglected dor-
ng the past sea-on, is unfounded—that tire road has
been kept in good order, and is now in better order
than it has been for the lart '2 or 3 years, and there
fore cannot require any additional or extraordinary
espenditutes to prepare it for the coming seasons
business. We deem it but an act of justice to the
officers su grossly attacked by this annonymous scrib.
bier,-to say that every Incility hus been afforded by
them to Transporter., and that their energy end the
~stem introduced by them into the Management of
