PITTSBURGH, TUESDAY, JUNE 23, 1836. ta FOR CANAL COMMISSIONER, WILLIAM 11.,FOSTER, OF :BRADFORD C9.IINTY, "What dms it Mean?" The Gazette contains a call signed Thomas 'Var ner Chairman," calling upon the ..+lniimasonic and • Whig County Committee to meet at rthe - Court House in this city on Wednesday, July Ist, ~t o tran sact business pertaining to the welfare and integri ty of the party." The Committee is composed o - the Delegates to the late Convention. We rejoice that the Senate has so promptly and so 'favorably responded' o the appointment by the President, of this distinguished jurist and scholar, to the office of United States District Judge.— Stern integrity, impartiality and honor, character istics so important in making up the judicial char acter, axe peculiarly his own. He, in fact, is just such a man as confers honor. on his station, and needs not its aid to give him elevation. .40.' It will be seen that the Rev. Dr. Joins Bis.ca is appointed to deliver the Eulogy on the character of the Rev: Roosor Banes, deceas ed. The eminence of I the orator selected and the distinguished and varied merits of the deceased will render the occasion of the delivery of this address most interesting, In the Ivhole range of the literary and 4miutut divines of the West, no one could have leen selected more appropriately for this melancholy office than the Rev. Dr. Black. They have been friends and co-laborers for up ward of a quarter of a century. TLIONAII Puiu.rps, Esq., formerly connected , t pager, has purchased the Peoria Pr4s, and is now its editor and proprietor.;From the long experience Mr. Phillips has had as an editor, we are confident that he will make the "Press" an in teresting paper. The Democracy ,of Illinois will find Mr. P. an efficient and fearless advocate of correct principles. He has our best wishes for his future success. • We understand that a new editiOn of Miss Lis zaz's Coo:mans:will shortly be isslied, containing much culinary matter, which the 'earlier editions unfortunately wanted. We cannot better describe its superiority than by stating that an entire chap ter will be devoted to a description; of the celebra ted "soup," used byGen. Scott, with directions for its use; and, also, observations' upon its perni cious influence on epistolary composition. Though it would afford us much pleasure to lay the con tents of this chapter before our readers, a proper regard for the interests of the publisher will not permit ns; we must, therefore, content ourselves with a single extract—uthe soup [ must never be taken hastily, and always cool." We have no doubt the publisher will meet with that encourage ment which his enterprise deserves, and that no 'whip politician will fail to purchaie this valuable rade mecum. Lsoporaa Ds Meytu. the Laos PIANIST, intends paying us a visit in a few days, and we may ex pect to hear something in the musical line truly delicious, judging from the manner in which our brethren of the press speak of his performances.— A Natchez paper thus notices Ds Mzzsz's first concert in that city. uWe must confess that the wonderful rapidity, the lightness, grace and power imparted by Mr. De Meyer, took) our faculties by surprise; leaving us under the b4iel that human skill, controlled by genius of the most exalted stamp, had united to render this mighty master richly deserving the great distinction lavished upon hint by the courts and critics of the most refined cities of the Old and New World, Difficulties ap parently insurmountable, were passed with the ra pidity and brilliancy of the lightning flash, and-the . storm of sound elicited from the instrument, was like the thunder that follows the flash. - The nu merous and highly intelligent audience attested by enthusiastic plaudits the delight; and gratification of their emotions." 00 - I.owing to an error appearing in the following iirbicle, in yesterday's paper, we republish it to eay, corrected. General Orders, No. 4. ADJVT.&NT GZNEI74I:II OFFICE, Harrisburg, June 16, 1846. The informal offers of volunteer companies, bat talions and regiments have been very- numerous, but under the Act of Congress. and the regulations of the President, their services cannot be accept ed. The companies must consist of 64 privates and 13 commissioned and non-Commissioned offi cers, and musicians. A battallion must consist of five companies, and a regiment of ten. Many companies have been tendered in confor mity with the regulations, and in order to afford suf ficient time for others to complete their organiza- T , tion, and tender their services, the time designated in General orders, No. 1, is hereby extended from 'the 22d instant until Saturday, the 11th day ofJu ly next. GEO. W. BOWMAN, Adjutant General. cf7The editor of the Couriei des Etats Unis, is ever making his paper agreable by amusing chit chat and vviticisrns of the French saloons; which _are sure to be rendered with point and piquancy.— One of the latest anecdotes of i this nature is thus translated: The deputy, M. Charles, lately gave a grand dinner at which the Bishop of Chartres was pres ent. After dinner there was a reception, and the ladies of the country aristocracy came in full dress —in flowing silks and satins, and sparkling with diamonds. As these ladies were dressed very low . in the neck his Grace affected to be greatly scan dalized, and retired very early. ' , What, my lord, do you leave so soon?" said the master of the house. "Certainly, - replied the prelate— ,, these women shove me out by the shenelders.i' NHEICSE RtCHES.—Prince Esterhazy, a Hunga garian Lord, is said to be the richest in the world. His estates contain 130 villages, 40 towns, and 34 castles. One of his four l country seats con 'nips 300 rooms. The number of his sheep must be enormous, as he has 2,500 sheperds. It will be seen what power he can exert, when in addi tion to his wealth, it is recollected that he is a feudal lord, and holds the 'power of life and death over his vassals. Finn ry Roxatany.—The Boston Mail of the 15th say a large &re took place in Roxberry, yes terday, which destroyed two Stables, two dwelling houses, two bowling Alleys, and ten horses. The whole loss can hardly be; less than $25,000, and but a small part insured. Messrs. King, Dick inson,Blaisdell, and Mrs. Bates, were the principal sufferers. 1 na- ROIASCASZZ.-On Monday a black fellow 'Barney was committed in Pluladel .:.qiiiliiilirlebcornitting several petty larcenies.

She returned it with the following: 2d chapter of Ruth, 10th v.—orlien she fell on her face and bowed herself to the ground, and said unto him why have I found grace in thine eyes, 'that thou Shouldest take notice of me, seeing I am a stranger?" He returned the book pointing to the 3d Epistle of John:—.4llaving many things to write onto you, I would not write with paper and 'ink: but II trust to come unto you, and speak face to face." j From the above interview, the marriage took piste, the ensuing week. ccy. We compile from the New Orleans Delta and Picayune of the 13th inst., the following items of later intelligence from Texas and the seat of TEXAS. The schooner Fairy, Captain Thompson, arrived yesterday from Galveston, which port she left on the 4th inst., bringing us a few days later: news than was previously received. - • The Galveston Weekly News of the 6th ult. states that the report in regard to the taking of the train of one hundred wagons and effects belong ing to German emigrants, who were on their way from NeW Braunsfels to Perdinales, by a party of Indians, is entirely unfounded, letters having been received jfrom Houston, stating that the whole party hail arrived in safety at Perdinales. They were cultivating the beautiful lands they found there and had not even seen an Indian. The above news is no doubt correct It is con- firmed in the Galveston News of the 29th ult. The name of the new town recently started by the emi grants 'on the Perdinalies, is called Fredericksburg. The settlement is rapidly progressing, and they ap pear to be highly delighted with the great fertility of the soil. The Houston Advocate of the 21st ult. states that some four or five discharged soldiers - - - from the army, on their way home, when about seventy five miles from San Antonio, were surpri sed by a party of Indians, and stripped of every rag of clothing; but their lives were fortunately saved by some American wagoners. We learn from Capt. Thompson that on his pas sage from this port to Galveston, about 31st ult., between the Southwest Pass and Ship island shoals, he saw a large schooner,copper-bottomed, carrying a heavy press of canvass. She at first appeared to be making for Vermilion bay, but soon bore di rectly for the Fairy, hoisting the American ensign, which *as answered. A heavy gale was blowing at the time, and the stranger could not carry full sail. She continued in pursuit several hours. The Fairy. ' earryin^ every rag of canvass, gained on her pursuer, and finally lost sight of her. The captain supposed she was either a piratical craft or Mexican cruizer—and so thinks the editor of the Galveston News. The most likely supposition is that 'she was some U. S. vessel of war, bound far the Rio Grande. Commander Randolph, of the United States na vy, was in Galveston on the t2d, awaiting, says the' News, the arrival of Mr. Rhodes, the United States naval constructor, for the purpose of examining the condition of the Texan naval vessels, consist ing of the sloop of-war Austin, 20 guns; brigs Ar cher aid Wharton, 18 guns each; and schooner San Bernard, h guns. The Wharton is aground. The regiment of mounted rangers required by the government, it is thought, has been filled, and is cu rou!c for the seat of war. We are indebted to Mr. Bisby, engineer of the steamship Galveston, for the following memorada; the latest news from Point Isabel. The Galveston left here on the 3d instant, taking down the Mis souri troops. When within about a hundred miles of Point Isabel, she lost one of her wheels in a squall. She arrived there on the sth, and leR on the Bth. On the night of the tath, she arrived otf the bar of Galveston, and put in over it next mor- 1 ning. She remained there twelve home, and left at 0 a.'cloc. P. M., on the 10th. At 12 o'clock Thursday night, she crossed the bar at the Balize, stud at S o clock yesterday morning, when opposite Poverty Point, her other wheel was carried away. Mr: Bibby reports that the steamers New York and Limes L. Pay arrived at - Point Isabel on the 7th inStant The latter has been retained to eon trntit Point Isabel to La Banta, Oa the Rio Grande. . The Galveston Ica Galveston the evening of the 10th.' The army was about moving up the river to take the small towns on Rs right bank. The ship Ondiaka was still at anchor of Brazos Santiago on the Bth. The Galveston may be expected at the wharf early this morning. . Mr. Bibby could not acertain that there was any thing' new from Matamoros, or that the troops had proceeded on to take possession of any of the oilier towns up the river, though it was known to be Gen.! Taylor's intent. He heard that the Mexican gen era! had sent Gen. Taylor a message, telling him to withdraw his troops from Matamoraat, or he would annihilate them. Gen. Taylor sent him his compliments, saying, he should be delighted to see him. There are on board the Galveston ISO souls, or thereabout, most of them sick or wounded. Among them are Capt. Saunders of the U. S. Army, Capt. llooe, who have lost an arm, Maj. Bell, U. S. Pay master, and Com. Moore, on his way to Washing ton. Capt, Page will be up in the New York. 232 4)(13 f....).25 177 21 n 22SS Gay,GAlNVeorixtoN or Gay. S cm-v. "Having good reason to believe that my claim will be opposed by Ma jor General Wilmer Kan Scars, an officer who has been for many years my junior, who I am sure has labored for more than a quarter of a CCU - (thy past, with far more zeal to cover me with, calumny, and defeat my efforts to be employed', in any service likely to redound to the safety ) and glory of my country, than he has ever labor ed to provide for the national defence, and to defeat the invading foe. I have determined to submit my claim to the President of the United States and the Secretary of War,confidently trust ing to their known wis dom and justice for a de cision which will prove to the army and the na tion that the rights of the unpretending soldier, always found upon the frontier when menaced by wars, wilt be as much respected us those of the political tactician, long accustomed to c ring e and crouch in and about the political Metropolis, sacrificing the interests and honor of the service at the shrine of that morbid thirst for the Presidency, which has, unhappily, for a long time past turned the heads of many chiefs of cliques from their appro priate pursuits, to the great annoyance of the good people of the Union and the neglect of their best interests; a thirst for high °flue which has in some cliques raged even more in favor of the British views of abol itionism than for placing our sea-ports in a state of defeax against the assauks of British war steam:re' The Hancock Eagle, published at Nauvoo, gives the • following description of the great Mormon Temple at that place, it says: We have made two ilitTerent visits to this ~r eat monument of human industry; and although our attention has been drawn to every apartment in it, Yet such is the vast extent of the immense edi fice, and the complexity of its architectural de signs, that our observations have been necessarily very superficial. It stands in a most prominent position. on the bluff which overlooks the lower town and riser, such is the elevation of its spire, that it is distinctly visible from a distance of mea ty or thirty miles in various directions. Viewed from the bank of the river, its whole appearance is grand and imposing. The material of which it is chiefly built, is white limestone, which has been worked and faced down to a perfect surface. Its dimensions, as far as we can recollect, are as follows—Length 128 feet, width SS feet, height of comb of root 77 feet, from the ground to top of I spire 170 feet, 1 The upper windows of the steeple serve as an obServatory, from which a magnificent view of the surrounding country may be had. The Missisip pi is seen winding its serpentine, form along the wooden valley to the North and South—the hills lof 'Owe rise in bold relief to the westward, and lose. themselves in the blue distance; while the prairies, fields, gardens and private buildings lie spread out like a map below. 'lle walls of the temple are of massive stone, and at least two feet thick. On either side, and at the end, are rows of graceful pilasters, crowned with elaborately carved caps, upon the external surface of which isexhibited in bus relief, tee face of tne "man in the moon," and two hands grasping trumpets. Fach pilaster rests upon inverted crescents, and are at least 50 feet long. They are thirty in nutnber, and the united cost of them is estimated at about $100,000. The structure is lighted by four rows of windows, two of which are quadrilateral, and two circulars. These, with the other novel architectural embel lishments, give the whole pile an original and not unpleasing aspect. All entrances are from the West, and the immense doorways are gained by a flight of stone steps. The interior contains a basement (in the centre of which stands the cele brated baptismal. font.) Two great halls which extend nearly the entire length and breadth of the building; and althirdhall underneath the roof, with small apartnienbk en either side. The baptisMal font is a most extraordinary work, and will stand a monument of Mormon ex travagance and grotesqueness of taste. It is ' immense stone reservoir, resting upon the backs of ; twelve oxen, also cut out of stone, and as; I"latge as lite." The effect 'of a first view of these rigid animals, standing in such a singular ipoSition, and wearing such mysterious countenan . cee, is.soritewhat startlmg;,but a feeling of super stition. soon gives way . to curiosity, and the .be holder is lost in woruler et the magnitude of the design; and extraordinary amount of labor that must have been expended in the erection of the work. ; . . 1 ~~.: LATER FROM POINT ISABEL The Mormon Temple at Nauroo The hall ot the first floor was intended as the reg ubir meetbigplace of the congregation, and when freed from the rubbish and surplus timber that now eneumbers it, will have a beautiful and imposing effect. The i architectural decorations are chaste and rich; and the two grand pulpits at the East and 'Kest ends, give to the whole an appearance ofOri. ental magnificence. The attic (as it may be call- .: . I . "A'gf,4 , 7' , ', ed) is lighted from the roof, and was designed fora large school room. Leaing the body of the build- ing, you' ascend_ to the bell room of the steeple, thence to the clock room', and last to the observa tory. The immense striicture is a chef doeircre of architecture, 'Aid 'will rank in grandeur -with the largest and most costly edifices of modern times.— The entire cost of its erection is estimated at be tween 700 and 800 thousand dollars. The temple will be ,nearly completed and in readiness for dedication by, the first of Mny. After it shall have been conse crated, it will be abandoned as a place of religious worship by the sect that erected it, and either sold oriented for a college. It has been examined by the agents of two or three different institutions; and from what we can learn is likely to be transferred to the Methodists, oy them to be used for literary and religious purposes. - COMMERCIAL MORD Prepared and corrected every Afternoon.
