KID3APPISG.-A case of *idnapping occurred
in' Philadelphia last week. An ugly looking cus
tomer seized a boy, about 12iyears old, on Willow
street In open daylight, put a pitch plaster over his
mouth to prevent his giving lan alarm, lifted him
into a wagon and drove out of town; in the even•
c.ing the boy managed to get out of the wagon and
'made tracks for home, with the plaster still on his
mouth. The police were on the look out for the
ddnapper.
The Oregon Question.
The following article froM the Paris Press, we
hope no one will omit to peruse. as it is the tes
timony of a disinterested party, and may be sup
posed to indicate public opinion in Europe on the
subject of the Oregon treaty:
"Did not time' fail us. weishould only have to
search the annals of the diplomacy on the Oregon
question to find terms sufficiently explicit, deliver
ed from the mouths of English) negotiators, to mark
the condemnation of the treaty of which Lord
•Aberdeen has now taken the initiativ e. We should
; -
discover that in 1827, Mr. Gallatin made an offer
of the-49th degree, granting to England the navi
gation of the Columbia River. .Both Mr. Ilus
kisson and Mr Addington rejected the separation,
- which, nevertheless, would have given to Great
-Britain all the territory she, will now gain, and
have insured to her forever that community of na
vigation which is:now concedo to her for a limit
ed-;number of years only. Thus, the English
ministry of I S4G has not only accepted, but even
demanded, less than that which was refused by the
;English ministry of 1827.
,But what need have
we,to go back into times past to seek for compar
iSonst Cannot we find someequally extraordinary
and significative in the .coage of the negotiations
that have been carried on &Ong the Presidency of
31r.: Polk, and in Which the two governments had
for their champions the same diplomatists as have
been intrusted with drawing up this treaty of par
tition? Are not the terms, in fact, identically sim
ilar to those which were proposed by Mr. Boatm
an, in October or November last, rejected. by Mr.
PaCkenham, to whom they appeared so contrary
togood faith and equity. (these are.his own words)
that* would not even submit them to his gor
, eminent! The .Ameriettn Seeretary of State had.
,try order of Mr. Polk, offered the line 6f the 4tith
``' degree, with common righta..of entrance into the
straits of Fuca.
• Now, these are the two fthidamental conditions
of the treaty, the conclusion of which we are here.
atter to announce. To these conditions, it is cer
tainly true, there are added, i for the benefit of the
Hudson's Bay Company, the temporary navigation
of the Columbia. But is it not evident that this,
like the question of appropriation and indemnity,
is only a secondary accessary interest Maid) Mr.
Polk could not offer, but which he would have as
• readily have granted six months ago, as he has to
day, had it been asked for. The English govern
meat will, no doubt, endeavor to shelter its diplo
rnacy under - theemall fraction of land through the
concession of which it has become the sole and le-
gitimate sovereign of Vaneoover'slaland. This,
• howeier, will beapeetile jurisdiction; because the
acquisition of that part of the island which lies ,
be
tween the 40th degree and' the straits of Fuca can
have no other result than the giving if-as a right,
of boundary the navigation of the straits, ‘ONeh'.'
Dlr. Polk bad offered in perpetuity, as a concession
over a territory which would have remained A

Oregon question is nothing more Alan a complete .

- Mr. Enrron:—As there is considerable of inter
est excited among a number of the goodlyeitizens
of Pittsburgh, in relation to the constriction of a
line of itfor.ic's illagnelic Telegraph, to extend from
this city to llarrisburgh;perhaps a short article ex
planatory of the Telegraphic Alphabet; the manner
in which private messages can be conveyed &c.,
Would be interesting to the readers of the Post.
It is, perhaps, not generally understood, that
messages of a private character can be conveyed
from one point to another, wherever there is a line
of telegraph established, with as much, and per
haps more scrreq, than by the present mode of
conveyance by mail.
In order to make this matter familiar to the rea
der, it Will be necessary first,,to give a correct copy
of the characters used by Prof. Morse, to represent
the English Alphabet, and then one or two sam
ples of the different arrangements of the Alphabet
by which:correspondence of either a public or
private nature can be accomplished by means of
the Telegraph.
The following is a correct copy of the charac
lers used to represent the Alphabet.
Alphabet
Alphabet
K-,-- T-
N -
G-- . P
The figures 1,2, 3, ,4-e. are represented as fol
It will be observed that every letter in the Eng
lish alphabet, and every number from 0 up to 9,
has a corresponding representative in the Tele
graphic alphabet. If there was a line of Tele
graphs established from this city to Harrisburgh,
Pittsburgh would then be in connexion with Har
risburgh, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington,
New York. Boston, Springfield, Utica, Buffalo, 4-c.,
and persons then in Pittsburgh, wishing to obtain
information from any of the above places, could
do so in less than three inintires from the time they
would make application at the Telegraph office,
Suppose a great fire would occur at Boston, and
the clerk at the Telegraph office wished to convey
the news to Pittsburgh, just as soon as he would
commence writing in Boston, the Telegraph here,
(if there was one established) would, most likely
make the following characters on paper:
G r e a t
a I B o a
91 3 0 /
it" i 6 8 6 urn
The Telegraph would not of course write the
lettrrs placed under the above characters, but the
characters themselves.
News of a private nature can be transferred by
transposing and interchanging the alphabet, that is,
have the alphabet commence with some other let
ter than A, for instance R—let the letter 11. repre
sent the letter A and S represent the letter
Hbcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz&
rstuvwxyz&abcdefghijklmnopq
I must here remark that the regular' customers
at the different Telegraph offices, have their names
registered in a book kept for the purpose, and they
are all numbered 1,2, 3, &c. Now suppose the
name of Church & Carothers stood as No. 20 in
Pittsburgh, and the names of Wilson, Jones & Co.
stood as No. 40 in Boston, and the two houses
were connected in a business capacity; in Boston,
and it was agreed upon between the parties, (confi
dentially as to others, of course.) that the alpha
bet, fur their private correrpontlenre, should com
mence with the letter Ras above described. Now
Church & Carothers, Pittsburgh, wish to send to
Wilson. Jones & Co, Boston, the following messa
ges, written according to their transposition of the
alphabet. all except the address—
No. 20 Pittsburgh,
To No. 40 Boston,
thy my iruv zd skozax wueka beh oeka crhavj
rj 3 webbrhi.
Which being translated means, "are we safe in
buying flour for your market at 3 dollars. They
might receive in less than 5 minutes the following
answer.
No. 40 Boston,
To No. 20 Pittsburgh,
slp rev oeh tee q iyzf iyyd 4 wubbrhi yvhv q
itrht
Which means, ..bay all you can and ship E. 001;
4 dollars here and scarce."
No one of course could understand such myste
rious writing, unless they understood the transisa.
sition of the alphabet. Cheeks, Bills of Exchange,
or any other matter may be written in the same
way. The above is, however, but on, method of
conveying secret communications, there are many
others, which I shall not mention here.
The following is written with the alphabet
transposed, so as to commence with the letter M.;
that is, the letter M represents A; the letter N rep
resents B, those who feel disposed trans
late it:

"Yotr measure by the' 144" said a sehool-boy

GssTismszi:—The undersigned were appointed
a Committee to address the following questions to
you:
Alphabet
Are you in favor of stopping the sale of public
lands of the States and. United States, and lay
ing them off in farms and lots ofdefinite size, (say
HO acres) for the free and exclusive use of actual
settlers; these farms and lots to be to the possessors
inalienable for debt or any other cause against
their will, and to be transferable only to landless
men?
Are you in favor of introducing the Ten Hour
System on the public works of the State and U.
States, and in favor of making it a penal offence to
work women or children under twenty-one years of,
age more than ten hours a day and making ten
hours labor the lawful standard for a day's ;wages?
Are you in favor of prohibiting convicts in the
penitentiaries from performing mechanical labor,
or any other labor coming in competition with
the labor of our free citizens, untainted with crime
—especially the manufacturing of boots and shoes
by the inmates of those prisons, which now impose
a heavy burden on the honest mechanics in that
branch of industry?
Are you in favor of reducing the salaries of all
officers of the United States (including Army and
Navy) and States to the workingman's standard
of two dollars per day, and will you return all,
monies received by you over that amount to the!
Central Committee or a special committee of citi
zens of Allegheny county. for the purpose of dis
seminating liberal principles among the people?
Will you oppose the granting of all charters
granting special privileges; and are you in favor of
a general incorporation law?
Will you pledge your honor as men and Legis-i
latora, if elected, to use all your influence and alit
the abilities you possess to carry out and perma
nentlyl
establish the above measures?
1::15131
An answer is respectfully requested as soon as
possible.
H. H. Van Amringe, Ansel Gerrish, W. F.. Ste
venson, Jacob Sprinkle, A. G. Miller, A. Burt.
John Graham.
Awintrz T CITY, Monday, 20th July.
Gentlemen: You have, through the Dispatch, ad
dressed certain questions to the candidates, to which
you request an answer , as soon as possible.' It gives
me pleasure to respond (by the same medium) that
I have always considered it right and proper for any
portion of the voters to interrogate those seeking
their suffrage. The convention that did me the
honor of a nomination for a Legislatis e office. pass
ed resolutions which I consider favorable to two of
your questions, viz: the first and third. If elected I
will take infinite pleasure in carrying them out, to
the best of my abilities.
My past and present course, in relation to the hours
of labor and Positeatiary system, are well known.—
It gives me satisfaction to refer you to the proceed.
ings of the Mechanics' meeting held in the 'Ark,"
and published in the Post of Thursday, which I am
informed meet the entire approbation of the Boot
and Shoe makers.
Were I in Congress, I would vote to reduce the
pay of the officers, and add to that of the rank and
I consider two dollars per day not sufficient to
`defray expenses at the seat of government, and imps
. port my family at home. By this rule, poor men
would be shut out. and none hut the wealthy or
the corrupt could hold the office. 1 will at all
times divide my last tip with the poor and needy
be they who they may.
'Chartered Companies with exclusive and extra
ordinary privileges are the legislative evil and op
probrium of the age,' of which the people very
properly complain. I would therefore not vote
to mate new banks. would place restrictions on the
present, to protect the people, and be bound by
their will in all matter's, for I consider their au
thority paramount, and that the duty of a Repre
sentative is to 'obey or resign:
I would here remark. that I hare no opinions nn
any sufject that 1 would hesitate to make public.
There are other measures of reform that would be
conductive to the well being of the masses, that
should be carried out, one I will mention, that
would have a tendency to relie‘e the Tax Payrrs
of the county, by facilitating the business of the
courts, and do away with the multiplicity of oaths.
which, (to say the least.) is demoralizing. Would
it not be much preferable to have the full Fianna
of Jurors sworn in chief; like the "grand inquest."
It. will be a source of pride to me, at all times.
to place a poor man in a situation that he may by
his honest industry elevate himself to an equality
with his rich neighbor; and for my own part, I
will never recognize the aristocratic doctrine that

FROM THE ARMY.
CAM? OPPOSITF. MATAMORMi, July 6, 1846
Nrssrs. Editors—At length the monotony of
of camp life is broken. We have received order*
to strike tents, preparatory to moving forward to
wards Camargo. All is life and activity in camp
to-day. We are waiting for the steamboat Big
Hatcher, which we momentarily expect to arrive
when we will embark on board of her and proceed
fifteen miles above here, where we will be disem
barked and wait until the whole of the Louisiana
Brigade comes up, when we will be marched for
ward.
The 7th Infantry, ff. S. A. commanded by
Capt. Miles, is embarking for the same destina.!
tion. The steamboats Aid, Big Hatchee, and',
Troy. are here: and the steamboats Cincinnati, En—
terprise, Cora, and J. E. Roberts, are in the river.
coming up—this begins to look like moving, and
I have now no doubt but what we will very soon
be in Camargo.
We spent the "glorious 4th" most gloriously.—
The Brigade (Cols. Walton's and Marks' Regi.
ments) were paraded and reviewed by Generals
Taylor and Smith. Gem I'., said to as that we
'wound move forward to Monterey with . the least
possible delay; and that if we did not have anoth
er "crack at the enemy," it would be because they
out-travelled us, as he was determined to ‘ ,, ' o ahead,'
and he hoped and believed that we would not be
detained any more. Yours, truly,
nj Gen. Scott's "hasty plate of soup" is not
original. He borrowed the idea from Spencer's
Faere Queene:
"As gentle shepherds, in sweet eventide,
When ruby Phrsbus 'gins ty walk in west,
High on a hill, his Hock to viewen wide,
Marks which do We their hasty supper best."
(Faere Queene; 1., s. 23.)
CooLNESS.—President Webber, of Cambridge
college, when sailing one day with a company for
pleasure, accidentally fell overboard. After sink
ing pretty deep, he nt length came up, and, rising
his head above the surface of the water, he grave
ly observed—qt is expected, gentlemen, that you
wilthandhe a rope."

MATERNAL ANXIETY
The following singular incident, so suited to
awaken all the feelings of a mother's heart, is
copied from a Scottish paper.
A mother having left her child, an infant of two
years of age, to play about the door till she at
tended some household duties, went when she was
disengaged, to look for her charge. The urchin
could hardly crawl, and she expected to find it at
the door cheek. There however, it was not, and
the mother, in considerable alarm, called on sev
eral neiglittyrs to inquire if they had seen het
child. No one had seen it, and, as a considerable
time had now elapsed in making inquiries, the
anxiety and tears of the poor woman became pro
portionally augmented. Parents, can' only judge
of her feelings when no trace of her child could
be found. The neighbors kindly assisted in ma
king strict inquisition in every well, pigstye; hen
roost, or out-of-the way corner, for the wandered
weane;—he was, however, no where to be found,
and. as a last recourse resolved that thubell should
be sent through the town. In the mean time the
mother, in a state bordering on distraction, went
into her own house to rummage every hole, and
bunker, head and cupboard, While• thus employ
ed, one of her sympathising friends happened to
cast her eyes on the gable of a neighboring house
and there, with surprise and horror, discovered the
lost child perched on a ladder, and within a few
steps. of its top, apparently delighted with its
state of exaltation.
A lady endeavored to induce the ambitious mife
to come down, but no—it shook its head and eat
fast. Shethen tried to go up the ladder, but half
way up her head grew dizzy, and she was obliged
to descend without accomplishing her object. The
mother was informed' by this time that the child
was found, but her feelings may be more easily
felt than described when she saw its danger. The
ladder was long enough to reach the eaves of the
three story house - , and within four steps of the ton
of it wits the child, holding firmly by one of the
bars, and looking quite complacent!; on the faces
below. With trembling steps the agitated mother
cautiously ascended th ladder, but when within
arms length of the infant as he as if to mock the
agony of his parent, clambered up the remaining
s t e p- and straining across the topmost bar, field
out :littlehandeand smiled, as if pro'nd of his
'dui , 'feat. - The Mother last folded the object
of .h• Tears and affections to ~her fond bosom, and
desc .ded with her.precioul burden in safety shed
dinglearg of grafitude, and breathing a heart-felt
pray to that providence which had so preserved
her Iliad.
