:Tut WICATHER,&C —The weather clediandbeau•
tiful. and hs.s the appearance and temi eta' ure of a fine
April day. Navigation is fully resumed, on our
and there in no mason to apprehend any interruption
this season. Business seems to be making an early
start, and we are assured by some of our merchants
that they are already selling egress ninny goods—in
fact trade seems . to have regularly set in for the sea
son. The croakers, who so tremblingly predicted
that Pittsburgh would be ruined by the calurnitnus
fire of the leth of April, may now see ant their fear
fat terebodings tan never be realiz-d. In two ears
this 'Fire will se'arcely be remembered except when'
attention is called to the splendid but lding± which are
fast covering the Burnt District.
The floe weather has brought out the mason• and
carpenters, and we see the foundations of several new
buildings- are-now being laid. In short every thing
aroroados tells of energy, industry Rod prosperity, and
inspires the most cheerful hopes for the future p r os_
pects of Pittsburgh.
re ft issaid at %Washington that President Pots
does not intend hereafter to confine himself to the
states of Pennsylvania and New ;Jersey, in making
the appoiatment to fill the vacancy on the bench of
the Supreme Corm. Some of the PlitiadelpSia edi
tors are 'getting their backs up' about the matter, and
mg that if the President Should appoint any one out
of this circuit it will give great dissatisfaction. Every
one will, of course, understand that they mean to in
form the President that it would give greet dissatis
faction to appoint any one out of Philadelphia, as they
have for many years been under the innocent dvitaiian
that Oran city 'is the state." More correct informu
tine from other parts of the Circuit might rh0.... more
clearly, perhaps, that it would cause greater dissatis
faction to appoint any one in it.

amend the Constitution of the State. so as to eitablish
hienocal Sessions of the Legislature.
This is a very sensible ernemimeat, and we sincere

similar one. It would cave the Treasury .7s-cry )evr,

has yetbeen discovered of the fifteen men who are en
tombed beneath the Wien mass. Two hundred men
hove beers at work since the accident occurred, but
they have not yet succeeded in reaching the bodies of
those who are known to be in the mine, and who, it
is feared, have now perished from famine, if they were
not immedieetly killed.

existence. Only last Saturday, says the Sentinel, he

fertile island that is of considerable importance It is
ihat relative in the - concentration of a large Spaniel)

fool applied to Sold" for aid; that it had been granted;
and that thin fleet which has created so much us.
tonishment in this country, has assembled to take port

The subscriber has examined the system of teach
ing the principles which guide.in the construction of
Hand Rails of Stairs and other similar work, as taught
by Mr. Drake, and believes it to he better than any
other system hitherto employed for that purpose. It
is as simple and demonstrative as anything can be;
indeed, by the use of models, Mr. Drake snakes his.
nearly the same as the practice pf putting up Rails
themselves. No person can fail to succeed in the busi
