;.THE BRITISH AN!) THE SIKHS.
The able correspondent of the Philadelphia Led
gerilvtiting from Brussels, says that the last news
fiem' India and the Punjaub is more favorable to
GOnt'Britain than many anticipated. A great ',tit
tle seen-is - to hive been fought, in which the English
MEM

were -aticcenful. They are said to have driven the
lhs across !be river, and 5.0 ha%e token 65 cannon.
'Nettling is said "as to the number of rri4unets they
It appears, however, from their own
:..aecte_nt, that they have lust not less than 1000 men,
killed and wounded, in dilfetent skirmishes, between
'the 2lst and 29th January, and that a pottiun of their
baggage- has fallen into the hands of be enemy.
' ,
+ Tlll3,,eansistitg of terns, stares, &c, is of much more
importancein India-than in Europe and America, and
consequently a most severe loss on the present coca

but he - expresses his doubts - as to the -official reports
that reach us Of-the progress of British alms in the

the river. This they have done on previous occasions,
- 'without Much effect. The other side of the Sutlej is
• the Sikh sideof the river; if, therefore, they weredriven
back to it, they must have been (after three victorious
tattlesian the part of the British) on the other, the
En glish sjde,of the river, and the i§ikhs, BO far from
ha
their territory invaded, are the actual invaders
on the British side. We learn, even now, that 'ltch
main camp' is yet as souid and -safe as ever, and that
the bridge which connects the Sikh aide with the Mit
_
ish„shore is in their possession, and protected by a
' :.teie de ponf, in - the shape of a semi-circle mounted
with heavy guns. We also learn that the invasion of
the Pinjaab will not be undertaken before next Oc
.:tober,the summer ohmolts being most uniavorable to
twit's. Thus the campaign is anything
.„
but concluded; and we doubt much if the possession
of -the'Ptinjanb, even after a successful invasion, will
not turn 'rant like the occupation of Alf,;banistan. The
Sikhy, like the Affghans, are a brave, warlike peoph ;
and their country is so well adapted to a guetilla war
eare'fliar, like all mountairseers, they URI be able fur
along while to defy the people of the plains. More
- Over, it- IS quite certain-that the native regiments are

o 9 t,.. Match for t them and that the enteatainment of
.
a large European army, independ rot of the loss by
- - aickness, and the climate, would prove a very heavy
tax On the already sufficiently largo budget of India.
-The annual deficit is already estimated at two
milli
ons ateiling, 'and it is not likely to diminish with the
pregent prospects.

of a sugar-loaf, broad at the base and enkag in a
• Uovvi.-- This prefigures that frecthirp,stanris on the
brand basis of humanity and runs up to pyramid, the
emblem of eternity, to show it ought to last forever.—
It was sitnple, fur Liberty is in itself the most shining
urnarrient of man. It hair none of the gilded.trappings
that make the livery of despotirm. The cap of lib.

BEAUTY.—Them is something in beauty, whether
it (NMl's in the human face, in.the pencilled leaves of
flowers, the sparkling surface of a fountain, or the as
rect which genius breaths over its statue, that makes
us mourn its ruin. I should not envy .that man his
feeling, who could see a leaf wither or a flower fall
without Rome sentiment of-tegret. This tender inter
est in the beauty and frailty of things around us. is
only a alight tribute of brcriming grief and affection;
for nature. in our adversities never deserts us. She
even comes more nearly to us itt our sorrows, mad.
ending us achy from the paths of disappuintment and
pain„into her lopthingrace=a, allays the anguish of
our bleeding hearts, binds up the'wounds that have
been inflicted. whispers the, meek pledges of a better

The Irish Coercion Bill is a measure sufficiently'
unjust and tyrannical to arouse the most despetote
.epposition. The substance of it Is thus:—
.The lord 'lieutenant is to proclaim tk: district in
which a murder or other (mirage occurs, on disturbed;
and the whole of the inhabitants of that district will
be. bound, after such proclamation, to remain within
their loan homes from sunset to sunrise; that is to say
during et certain season of the year, f ir sixteen hour.
out of the twenty-four. All persons found transgres
sing the regulation will be apprehended. but those
who can preve a 'lawful occasion' for being out will
escape punishment: Failing such proof, the trans
e,resbilirr is - a misdemeanor, .punishable by transporta
tion from seven to fifteen 'years. or by alley years im
prisonment."
Three yenta irripiisonment, or transportation for fif
teen years, for daring to step out of u house! Yet a
goveromt4it trying to enrolee such an outrageous law
talks about thecnielty of slavery in the United Suites.
and pkilanikropic effotts to christianize India! 1 . 1
ever a nation merited the annihilating wrath of heaven,
Great Britiiin deserves no mercy.
MEncca Corral's' COAL Tune.—The amount of
coal shipped from Mercer county via, the Et ie Exten
sion canal, to Lake Erie, we are assured is very great
rho steamers on the. Lakes, and all the principal cit•
Ma, on the Canada as well as the Amp iean side art'
nuw supplied itn coal frumihe Shent4 , icuunty. No
county in the commonwealth is inerealsing as rapidly
in wealth and population as Mercer.

says:—The Cumberland Valley. Railroad Company
have commenced in right good earnest, rebuilding their
bridge at this place. Very nearly all the piera be.

a n d th e wood work already extended as far as the

it in expected it will be ready fur crossing by the first

engaged in putting up mnehinety for extending the
rope net.o.otto the Island. for tho ferry. They have
some hope, vrn believe. of succeeding be Wednesday
next. We hear nothing said of rebuilding their
bridge.
1111%311 CASA %.—The CincinnatiCitisen of the 2d

on the upper level: of the canal on the 25th as wan

that navigation would be opened through to this city
by this evening. We are informed that although the
water is now within a few miles the necessary repairs
between thia point and and that. cannot be completed
so es to admit the passage of boats before Tuesday
or Wednesday. Things look rather stagnant about the
canal landing just now, hut the coining in of the wa
ter is ill set them in motion."
We have seen a letter, says the Washington Union
of the 21 lost, from en officer of the army in Texas, of
so tecent a date as the 16th oh, from which we have
been permitted to take the following extinct:
..The news from the vamp is very pat* at present
The report is that the Mexicans intend to pmtpone
their operations until the Ist of June, in older to allow
the governments time to arbitrate the matter, but no
reliance is to be placed upon what they say."
Essy RuntEer.—The Philalelphia Times of
yesterday says, Mr. M. McCab,, or Baltimore, was
rubbed of nearly $9,000, on-bmad the Philadelphia
boat from that city. The money W 1.14 taken from un
his pillow. He Offers a reward of $5OO.

Company give notice that they will charge no freight

CuNTEMPTIBLE.—Many of the Whig papers,
suppress the remarks of Mr J R Ingersoll. (Whig.)
bearing testimony to the honorable conduct of his
brother, C J Ingersoll.
"A man can't help what's done behind his back,
as the loafer said when he wan k icked out of doors.
The Route to Oregon.—A curious fart, connected
with our rights and position in Oregon, was stated
NI us by a military friend. It is 1116: After leaving,
the South West Pass, the only route which we have to
reach the Valley of the Wallamette and the Columbia,
passes u large distance teirkin the Mexican territory
—Upper California. This is the route always taken
byri he emigrants.
The road, to Oregon is from Independence to the
Kansas river, thence up the Valley of the Arkansas to
the South West Pass. Now this pass is justfourteen
miles North of the 421 deg. of latitude. This was
a bare escape from the Mexican territory.
But when they leave the South West Pass, in order
to turn the second rungo of mountains, they are oblig
ed to go southwardlv, in a clicuitaus route, till they
reach the valley of Green River. in California. At
the southern point of their journey. they are more than
ahundred miles.in the Mexican Territoty. From that
'paint they turn North west, and get, into valleys run
ning into the Columbia. '
l'his fact is of importance; for if we can find no
other mute we may be obliged to purchase a portion
of California, in order to secure the Right of Way.
Captain Fremont is now exploring California. He
was lanai Monterey. We may expect a very full re-.
port from him of the real situation and character of
that country.—Civs. Chron.

or Difficulty of Brenifting. then the only efficient means
to cure you is to use Joyne's Expectorant, which will
immediately overcome the spasm which contracts the
diamiter of the wind tubes, and loosens and brings op
the mucous which clogs them up, and thus removes
