— PILE MATOR4LTY—T6F MUSS.
That phantom—fusion—has brought abing
most singular state of things in Pittsburgh.
There are three candidates already in the field,
and two more trill " be entered " in the course of
this week. The race comes off in a week from
too-morrso, and we do not know who will catch
the hindmost But as matters now stand the
--- Triow Nothing candidate seems likely to have a
pretty good time of it, though we honestly be
lieve Mr. Irwin can conic out ahead if his friends
will only think so, and go to work in earnest.
The " Proposition" which we published by re
quest on Saturday seemed to meet with a good
deal of favor from many quarters, as we judge
fr,Siu the numbers who were talking about it.
There can be but one elected, and if the three
candidates now in the field all run, the Know
Nothing may be elected. Tu aveid the possibili
ty of that it i., the wish or many that all three
withdraw of their own accord, and a new man be
started. From what we know of the character of
two of the gentlemen, we have very little doubt
that they would Le willing to do so for the sake
of harmony and victory over the Know Nothings.
But the other candidate—Mr. Volz, is more
doubtful. lie and his police seem resolved that
the next Mayor shall be Vole or a Know Nothing.
If such a his determination the others will nut
withdraw, and upon Lim be the odium of defeat
ing this year the very friends who elected him
last year.
The proposition is a fair one. No friend of
Vole would be more grieved at his withdrawal
than would the friends of Irwin at his. Many
of Mr. I.'s friends feel pretty sanguine of his
success, notwithstandiUg the confusion that fusion
has now and ever will produce. Yet we venture
the assertion that if the ether two will withdraw
he will, fur the sake of a harmonious and suc
cessful movement_ Then let some new Irian be
put forth. We will venture to mention some
names from whom a selection might he made.

BENJAMIN SINGERLY, LUKE TAA F FE,

We merely suggest a few names. There are
many others equally good from whom nn unex
ceptionable selection could be made. A man so
selected could be surely elected. To expedite
matters it would no doubt give general satisfac
tion if the three candidates themselves should
select the man. They represent parties. The
several committees could agree, and the thing be
done harmoniously. Now, if the purpose is to
beat the K. N.'s, this plan of reconciliation, or
one similar, will he readily adopted, But if the
great aim is to retain offices, then let the citi
zens defeat the man who refuses all arrange
ments ; and resolves to be elected himself. r se-
cure the election of a Know Nothing.
We wish to add that we make this suggestion
without being authorized thereto by any of the
candidates, but merely for the purpose of seeing
whether something cannot be done to reconcile
all difficulties. We are at the same time aware
that many friends of Mr. Irwin will not like it.
They consider his chance , good. and want him
to ^ go through.•'
LEASING THE ROAD
Vie city councils, on Friday evening, provided
for the payment of the January interest on the
bonds issued to the Pittsburgh and Steubenville
railroad company. 'The ordinance authorizes
the borrowing of money for the purpose ; and the
company must give security that it will be re
paid. We presume the money can be obtained ;
but how the company in its present condition can
repay it seems hard to say.
This measure, however, secures more time to
consider the proposal to lease the road. It is a
question of much importance, and should not be
hastily decided. There are, however, certain er
roneous opinions prevailing in relation to the pro
position. Some say, and appear to be,lleve that
it M gunny away the railroad. It is no more so
than the lease of any other other property for a
term of years. It is said again, and apparently
generally believed, that it is the Pennsylvania
railroad that is the real lessee. This impression
arises doubtless from the fact that the name of
J. Edgar Thompson alone appears in the printed
form of the lease. Yet there are other men pre
pared to go into it, who have no connection what
ever with the Central road. And, besides, any
man can become a lessee with the others who
will subscribe a thousand dollars to the stock of
the road. Suppose for instance that 100 men in
Pittsburgh would subscribe each $l,OOO to the
stock of the company, every man of them would
be a lessee if he chose, and have a voice and a
vote in its management. Sod, i- -tie of the pro
visions of the lease.
The form of the lease that has been prepared
and published is somewhat defective. It needs
some modifications—some further safeguards
against an improvident or improper use of the
earnings of the road when in use; and we under
stand that some modifications arc prepared that
will make it less objectionable. When that is
done it will then be a question whether the city and
county shall go in still deeper with their bonds
and money, or let the road pass into the hands of
othors who can find means to finish, stock and
run the road, and make it profitable.
The money was raised and sent off o❑ Satur
day, to pay the interest of the city bonds issued
to the Steubenville railroad. The credit of the
city is sustained.
ANOTUER CORN SHELLER.—The war of the
corn shelters is not over yet. Another competi
tor for public favor has made its appearance at
Mr. Eaton's exhibition room, No. SU Fourth st.,
which many who have seen it think cannot be
excelled for a hand-power machine. It certainly
" puts things through in a hurry," and requires
very little power to make it do rapid work. It is
an ingenious and valuable invention, and will
doubtless remunerate the patentee well for his
skill and labor. We advise all who take an in
terest in such matters to call and see it. Two
advantages of it will be obvious to every one—
tho strength of the workmanship and the slight
power required to work it.
Elections on Tuesday.
We call attention to the Citizens• Ticket in the
Sixth Ward, composed of good and reliable men:
James C. Cummins, Esq., is the Citizens' candi

citizens, and we hope he may succeed in being
elected and thereby defeating Know Nothingism.
We shall notice the matter more fully to-morrow.

The detention of the Nicaragua Transit Com
pany's steamer, Northern Light, at New York,
charged with having a large number of emigrants,
so-called, among her passengers, again brings
Nicaraguan affairs into unusual prominence.
The invitation by the Walker Government to set
tlers, promising each one two hundred and fifty
acres of land, has doubtless been availed of as a
cover to the real character of the emigration, its
stability depending upon the number of citizens
of the United States who are willing to unite in
gi,ing it support. The fact is said to be formit
ted that at least one hundred men were on board
the steamer who had no passage tickets, and it
is fair to presume that they were some of the
emigrants engaged by Parker IL French to settle
in Nicaragua, and to compose a part of Walker's
army of occupation.
The selfish conduct of the Transit Company in
connection with Nicaragua, and its total disregard
of the honor and engagements of this Govern
ment whenever its private interests have been in
volved, are conspicuous features of this transac
tion, as well as of previous occurrences. The
Company has frequently sought the aid and assist
ance of this Government for its protection, and
the destruction of Greytown was one of the con
sequences growing out of this protection. In
the case of Kinney, the Company co-operated
with the authorities in defeating his expedition,
for the reason, no doubt, that its success they
believed might affect injuriously their exclusive
privileges in Nicaragua. In Walker's case, it
pretended to discountenance him and his tlibus
&re, but no sooner had he made good his position
and seized the reigns of government, than all
opposition on their part ceased. Indeed, Walker
has had the use of the company's steamers on
Lake Nicaragua, has received several reinforce
ments from San Francisco brought by its Pacific
steamers, and now is receiving aid and com
fort" in the consolidation of his power. Proba
bly Walker will extend their privileges as the
price of their aid, or take off the tax on passen
gers which the company, by its charter, engaged
is pay to the Nicaragua Government. At the
present time Nicaragua has an unsettled claim
for some three hundred thousand dollars against
the company. A very simple mode of settlement
would be to carry out a few hundred emigrants
at so much each, as an offset to this claim.
While it is beyond doubt our manifest destiny
to overrun and take possession of Central Ameri
ca, the good faith of our government, in the ob
servance of its treaty stipulations and of the
rights of others, demands that no countenance
should be given to buccaneering expeditions,
even though they assume as their purpose the
extension of the area of freedom. Commerce
and a inure frequent intercourse will do the
work, and secure for American enterprise and
industry the control of its political as well riq
its financial interests. The unsettled and rev
olutionary condition of the Spanish American
States of thin continent are a perpetual in-
vitation to the inroads of such adventurers as
are to he found in nut inconsiderable numbers in
many parts of the United States, who, congrega
ting in the large cities, are ready to embark in
any undertaking that promises adventure and a
chance to make a fortune. It requires the con
stant vigilance of the Government to restrain
these restless spirits, and to prevent theta from
involving the honor of our Government, and pre
cipitating the natural and desirable course of
"rent,.
And now let us turn to Congress and the or
ganization of the House. The Senate is spend
ing' the holidays even more leisurely than usual,
half of the Senators nt least being out of the
city. The Muse never was so full at this period
of the session, about two hundred and ten Me 111 -
tiers being iu attendance, the remaining few hav
ing paired off. This has been an exciting day in
the House, as the telegraph will have informed
you. But the grave business of electing a speak
er is not without its fat-rival episodes. It was
decided that there should be no adjouriunent un-
til a Speaker is elected. The uninitiated
suppoqe that a continuous session had been de
termined upon, to sit day and night until an cilia
tion was accomplished. This ie very far, indeed
from the fact. The legislative day hegins at 1'
o'clock, theridiart, and, of course, ends at the
galllo hour the following day. At half-past four,
members began to want their dinners, and it wa,
agreed to take a recess until 9 o'clock to-morrow
morning. OTIC proposition was submitted to take
recess until fifty-nine minutes past eleven. A
recess is not an adjournment, and the proceeding
t.i-morrow until meridian will he entered ,n 1 t h.
journals by the Clerk as it part of the proceed
inv of this day's session. The difference be
tween an adjournment and a recess will he per
fectly understood hereafter.
The feature in to-day's proeeedings wa.. the
motion offered by Mr. Campbell, of ()Lilo, tha,
Mr. Urr, of S. C., be appointed temporary chair
man, in order to facilitate an organization, by
the enforcement of the general parliamentary
aa - applicable to public assemblage. Coming
from Mr. Campbell, it caused a sensation and a
prodigious fluttering among the Black Republi
cans, especially among Mr. Banks' immediate
friends. In this matter Mr. Campbell seems to
have acted entirely on his own responsibility,
without consulting his party friends, and their
disapproval was decided—deep certainly, if not
loud. A compromise plan was offered by Mr.
Cumback, that the three parties in the House se
lect a chairman, to preside in turn, urging that
if Mr. Orr was placed in the chair temporarily,
it would end in his election as Speaker. The
objection was not sustained, as the motion was
vested down. The House then refused to lay Mr.
Campbell's motion on the table, by some twenty
majority. It is now pending, and will be the
first thing in order to-morrow morning. The
Black Republicans voted almost unanimously to
lay it on the table, or, in other words, against it.
Mx. Campbell seems displeased with the imprac
ticable character of his party associates, having
voted against the plurality resolution on Monday.
This may or it may not lead to Mr. Orr's elec
tion, but the power of the Black Republicans is
evidently on the wane. To-night they are in
caucus, trying to repair damages and to mature '
plans for to-morrow. The impression prevails
that their phalanx is broken, and that they will
of be able to rally again in an much .4treneb aY
heretofore. The Democrats still adhere to Mr.
Richardson as their candidate for Speaker, and
trill use every honorable effort to elect him. It
is a personal Compliment to that gentleman which
his party desire to pay him, while the Southern
Democrats, in addition, wish to manifest through
him and by his election their high appreciation

FAYETTH COrNTY.—The COMICIIBViIIC Sentinel
gives an account of an adjourned meeting re
cently held in Cumberland, in relation to the
Pittsburgh and Connellsville Railroad, which is
said to have been very largely attended, and it
stated that much enthusiasm prevailed. A num
ber of resolutions were pass6l, among which is
one iustructiug the Mayor and city couucils to
subscribe $300,000 to the stock of said Com
pany. The editor congratulate , the public upon
this movement, which will give a new impetus to
the enterprise and hopes that it friends will not
falter in their praise -worthy efforts to procure
subscriptions for its completiOn.
Thomas Cunnigham, while driving along the
road running parallel with the railroad, was pre
cipitated over a coal bank some thirty feet: but
singular to relate, neither horse nor driver were
injured in the least:
STEUBENVILLE. The Steubenville papers
strongly advocate the proposed lease of the Pitts
burgh and Steubenville Railroad. The editor of
the Daily Union, in alluding to the opposition of
our neighbor of the Gazelle to the measure,
says How this whole matter may strike our
Pittsburgh cousins we know not, nor do we wish
to interfere in their clashing interests. But
suffering as we are, rery seriously, from the tardy
manner in which they have been pushing the
Pittsburgh and Steubenville Railroad, we may be
allowed to urge them very respectfully not to
permit an opportunity for the certain early com
pletion of this road to pass by unimproved.''
One fact is derived from the statistics of deaths
in the world which affords a strong argument in
favor of free republican governments. It is an
ascertained fact that fewer people die in propor
tion to the population under free governments
than under despotic And just in proportion as
the governments are more despotic the per cent
age of denthii increase. Take the six strongest
nation., or the world—England, France, Austria,
Prusiia, Russia and the United States as exam
ples. The United States has the most free gov
ernment, England next, France next, Prussia
next; and Austria and Russia are the mist des
potic—the latter lomg the oppoidte extreme fri m

Rualsta a Check on E.nglaud.
In the Correspondence of Henry Clay," re
cently published, in a letter from James Madison
to Mr. Clay, under date of Oct 30, 1815, which
shows, that, before there was any apprehension
of an Anglo-Russian war, or any expectation of
an Anglo-French "offensive and defensive alli
ance," it was the opinion of some of our
leading statesmen thnt a, good understanding
should be cultivated with the Czar, as a check
upon England. Mr Madison says:
“Since the overthrow of France, Russia has
acquired the highest degree of political impor
tance in relation to these States. As a great
power, friendly to a liberal system of neutral
rights, and with whose dominions our commerce
had become considerable, she held, before that
event, a distinguished rank, but by it her weight
in the general scale had been much augmented.
Russia forms, in effect, at this time , the princi
pal check on the overgrown power of England.
on which account, and many others, it is Un
monsely the interest of these States to cultivate
a good understanding with her sovereign.”
Toe DiScOVERY BAIR/LE RESOLUM—TIIO fact
that the British discovery barque Resolute, aban
doned in the Artie seas, by Sir Edward Belcher,
had been f o und and brought into New London,
Conn, as a prize, has already been announced.
Capt. Buddington, of the whaling barque Leo.
Henry, i the fortunate finder of the Resolute.
When first discovered, the water was up to her
lower deck, and it required three days hard work
is pump her out, when the immense masses of
ice, on one side, gave her a list sport, requiring
a long time to put her on an even keel. lier
final rescue was at length effected, and after a
tedious voyage she was brought into New London.
Among the articles found on board of the Reso
lute was rigging and anchors valued at $2,000,
whaling gear, cannon, Minnie rifles, full suits of
winter clothing, and other things necessary for a
voyage to the . Polar Seas including a good library
of books, greatly damaged, however, by water.
The prize is valued at $50,000 although Cap
tain B. states that she was never fitted out for less
than $lOO,OOO, The proceeds of the cruise will
have to be divided among the owners and crew of
the Geo. llenry, fur in whaling voyages the 'entire
proceeds, no matter what turns up, are to be shared
amongst the parties interested, namely, the cap
tain, crew and owners. Whether the British
government will pay the finders of the Resolute
the value of the vessel or not remains to be seen.
SENDING OUNEOWIJER FROM ENULAND TO Rl's
sin. %e condemn the Yankees for doing contra
band business with Russia, but forget that Rus
sia, at this moment, is obtaining materials of
war from Englishmen. The trade is most ex
tensive in the north, and we regret to say that
the number engaged in it is incredibly large.
The terrible fire at Newcastle-on-Tyne is not yet
forgotten; but what caused that fire ;' Nobody
will tell in Newcastle, but hundreds in Newcas
tle know that that fire originated in an explosion
of yellow alkali. Now, yellow alkali was a dis
g-uished name for saltpetre and nitre, which was
shipped to the north of Europe in large quan
tities, and thence forwarded to Russia. On its
arrival nothing was required to make it into
powder but a proper addition of charcoal.—.4M
rrpool Post.
MORE FILLIDUSTERS.—It is stated that private
letters received in Washington, from Now Or
leans, report that Col. Grant has over one thou
sand men enlisted, all fully armed, for an expe
dition to Nicaragua to join Col. Walker. One
hundred men were to leave that city on the
schooner Oen. Scott, which vessel had been fitted
up for their reception and was advertised to leave
on the 18th inst., and three hundred more on the
in 2t;th, the steamer, Promethe us .
