PENNSVLVANIA
Having already given our readers a few
facts, showing the importance of the agricul
*al and coal and iron interests of l'ennsyls
V i ania, we shall close the subject for the pres
ent by giving a few statistics, from which the
leading position of our State in other branches
df wealth producing industry may hr. inferred.
In cotton,man:ltactures Pennsylvania ranks
Se and to Massachusetts in the list of States,
the former having 208 establishments in . I=so,
itnd the latter 213. The value of product in
Pennsylvania war 5 322;262. In inanufge
tares of Woolen Goods. Pennsylvania has 3wu
establishments against 249 in New York and
116 •in Massachusetts. The amount of pro
I luct annually produced is $5,321,866. In
department, New - Y or's and Massachusetts
exceed our State in the value of product, the
!establishments being larger though not so nu
imerous, Upwards of 17,000 persons have
employment iu these two branches. In Phil ,
adelphta alone, there are three thousand hand
!looms at work in addition to machinery. We
'give below itaigures the estimated capital ein
ployed and liable produced, in a variety of in
dustrial products, which estimates are prob
ably under tether than over the mark.

Besides the above which are estimated from
the best data which we can find, there are nu
merous smaller branches of industrial produrs
tion, such as brick, stone, urn Ii adware and
cutlery, ships and cordage, &c., which add an
nually to our wealth.and fu•nish employment
for a vast number of workmen.
Of the annual value of our forest produc-
I tions, it is not easy to form a correct estimate.
There are in the state about 5,500 saw mills
producing about 500,000 000 feet of timber,
and the value of utisar. , u timber, shingles.
staves &e., sent to market reaches probably a
[Hill on of dollars nor annum. To this niut
be added the amount consumed :it holm , . and
wood 'wed for charcoal for our furnac, s, of
which no calculation can be made:.
Thus briefly and imperfectly, we are coins
pelted to admit, we have 'endeavored to give
our readers some slight idea of the importance
of our State as a wealth producer. Upon
this is based our commerce with other States,
and with the world, and to its necessities are
we indebted for the vast system of ralroads,
canals and other internal improvements, all
over the State. The extent of her territory,
her unbounded immaterial rescourcei, the int els
ligenco of her population, and her geographi
cal position in the centre of our nation, com
bine to render Pennsylvania the most impor
tant State in the confederation. This posit ion
has been conceded to her .as . the Keystone of
the Union. Her political influence is a mighty
and controlliii:v ow). It is no idle boast
that "as goes Pennsylvania so goes ti e
Union." Her people are not ambitious, but
they are most soundly patriotic, and her sister
States regard her importance in a political
point of view more carefully than do her own
citizens. They are not accustomed to self
I udation t'o the degree that afflicts some of
their southern neighbors, but they feel a just
pride in speaking of those solid advantag s
which their State possesses in a peculiar tie
gree, and as to many of which she stands p e
eminent among her fellows.
John Mackin, Esq., of this city, has been
appointed Flour Inspector, and Charles
'Barnett, Sealer of Weights and Measures.

on Thursday or Friday of this wei k. Captain
Guthrie at one time commanded the Duquesne

course, turn out upon this occasion, and make
such'arrangements, in advance, as will ensure
a full parade.
A ileautArttl Picture.
Thu Rev. J. A Stillinger, of Blairsville,
Pastor of the Catholic congregation, at that
place, has succeeded in procuring from
Munich, one of the finest paintings of the
Crucifixion, now in the country. The paint
inettleasurenseven by nine feet, and is intend
ed to be placed in the rear of the altar. This
painting received the highest commendation
from the German school of artists to whom it
was submitted, and it gives us pleasure to re
cord the evident incre se of appreciation (.1
the fine arts in this country. 'l'he frame for
this painting has been executed by J. J. Gil
lespie, Wood street, and reflects the highest
credit upon the workmanship of that estab

Taking 1853 as a criterion, the citizens Of
Cincinnati saved in three subsequent years,
$817,411 , and the underwriters saved the
lumber sum of 5644,217, making an aggregate
saving of $1,461,698, and besides this to e lse
hundred men who could ill afford the loss Of
time required for service as volunteer firemen,
lire now engaged in less dangerous and more
profitable employment, and their place is made
good by eighty-five paid men with seven steam
engines, having the capacity and effectiveness
of twenty one hand engines. Each steam
engine requires constantly at the station an
engineer. two firemen, and two drivers under
full pay, and four or five men required at fires
who receive each sixty dollars a year.
It is a well settled tact in political econo
my that volunteer labor costs the most in the
end. The advantages of a paid fire tlepart ,
merit over zi vol untary system, are obvious,
from an examination of such figures as those.
Even the paid sy ‘t(in which prevails in our
sister city of Allegheny has proved itself far
preferable in an economical point of view.
The cost of our present system, must not
be estimated by the niggeredly amount appro
priated by the city. In order to get alctig at
all, the Fire Department is compelled to ask con
slant contributions fr.. in the public.
It will not be difficult however to establish
a better system if the people will carefully
consider the subject, and ask for proper legis
lation. The Steam Fire Engine, paid firemen,
and a small tax upon buildings to meet the
expenses, would in the end save to our citizens
hundreds of thousands of dollars directly and
indirectly. The moral benefit to the community
which would result frem the change of eye' em
would be great and desirable. We have thrown
out those remarks at the present time because
we learn that the subject is under considera•

Tllid; WAY TO DO IT
The desire honestly to acquire wealth, or at
least a c mpeteucy, and that as speedily as
possible, is a praiseworthy element in Amer
ican characier. It is a mainspring to indus
try— a motive to r economy —an incentive to en
ergy and exertion. and the chief element of
social prosperity. It is not money which is
the `•root of all evil "---it is the inordinate /or.,
of it, and he, who "buys and selle to get gait)
with the design of making that gain useful to
himself and others, a good citizen. Each
nne seeks for the best means to increase his
hwiness, but in Pittsburgh the lever by
which the world is moved is certainly not ful
ly appreciated. If the continuance of an old
hue of trade, or the establishment of a new
one is to be quickly an'd successfully effected,
ADVERTISING is the method l y which to do it.
Many business men feel that they have as good
a right to a fair share of trade as their fellows
-they have stocks as good and sell as cheap as
their neighbors—but they recieve less patron
age than "is their dne, because they neglect to
to advertise. The politician knows the value
of the press—he uses it to advance his ends
the charlatan knows it too, and gets rich
through the influence of printer's ink, and the
sound, sensible merchant stands in his own
light, when he refuses to make use of the
press to advance his own interests. The ad
vertising columns of the newspaper are the di
rectory which purchasers seek as their guide
in choosing where they will buy. The advai ,
tages of advertising are well understood and
well used by certain classes of dealers, but
others cry out "humbug," and are content to
enjoy a dignified quietude in their warehouses,
stores and workshops, while their neighbors
are growing rich.
The Spring Trade is now at hand, and if
our merchants wish to let the buying world
know what Pittsburgh has to sell, the way to
di it is to ADVERTISE. It is the interest of
all, who wish to sell their goods and enlarge
their trade, to let the buyers know what they
have and where they are, and NOW is the
time to do it.
In looking over our California files, we find
that Lieut. Beale with fourteen camels ar
rived at Los A.ngelos on the Bth of January.
The appearance of these uncouth animals
created great excitement among the people.
The annuals under Lieutenant Beale have all
grown serviceable, and many of them are
well broken to the saddle and are very gentle.
The San Francisco Bulletin says that all the
Camels belong to the one hump species, ex
cept one, which is a cross between the one
and two hump kinds. This fellow is much
larger and more powerful than either sire or
darn. Lie is a grizzly looking hybrid, a camel
mule of colossal proportions, and weighs
2200 pounds. Their drivers say they would
get fat were a donkey would starve to death.
The camels are now on their return to the
Colorado River, for the purpose of carrying
provisions for Lieutenant Beale and the mili
tary escort, who, it is conjectured, will penes
tra'e from thence as far as possible into the
Mormon country. Afterwards, Lieutenant
Beak will return by the new wagon route
that be has surveyed, to verify it ; and so on
to Washington. He was expected to reach
the capital before the first of March, in order
to lay his report before Congress.
New Newspaper Regal 'Along
The Post Office regulations prescribe that
newspapers posted in the United States for

be stopped and sent to the dead-letter office
or be forwarded charged with full letter post.

The Postmaster general has therefore ins
structed the respective United States exchange
offices to forward all newspapers addressed to
Great. Britain to contain writing or any en
closure charged with full letter rate of postage :
and postmasters throughout the couutry are
particularly enjoined to scrutanize such papers
closely, with a veiw to detect frauds of this
character.

dowager on one Fide, and Fred on the other, I
didn't breathe easily for two interminable hours.
In the

but I made so many ludicrous mistakes with the
latter felicitous article, that I gave up in despair,
gaud, and said nothing. Like Dame Parting

into it. Twice only my rebel tongue was too
much for me.

"'0 Lord !' thought 1. 'Well, then, Fred, I
venture again—whose footman is that?' and I
pointed with my bouquet to a modestly dressed

braska act. Mr. Hammond takes different ground,
es
oontehding thdt the sovereignty of Kansas is vest, S
in the sovereignty of States, to lie exorcised by Coe
grass alone. The Senator from TO.l3`.`,!ESOelaces it in
the people of Kansas independent of the Territorial
Legislature and independent of the enablima ac',
while the Senator from Georgia asserts it to be in the
Territorial Legislature. He [Doolittle] contended
that if the sovereignty vas-ideal In time people, the T.
, peka Constitution is a legal instrument. He then
examined the claims of the two Constitution:, t h e ,
Topeka and the Lecompton, contending that the lat
ter was invalid bee:mist the Kansas Nebraslta act
conferred nu powers to all a Convention, while the
former grew out f voluounary appeal to the
people themselves, and was perfectly legal. In an
swer to the question : Why did not the Free State
Men in Kansas, if in the majority, vote for delegates
to the Convention ? lie showed by numerous familiar
facts that in many eases they could net vote, in con
sequence of several eotintiee being disfranchised,
and also that they had been solemnly assured that
the Constitution would be submitted to the approval
of the people. This assurance was given by General
Calhoun himself, as well as by Mr. Buchanan in his
message, and through chosen organs of Messrs.
Walker and Stanton. 11 , denied the correctness of
the President's assertienehat when the slavery clause
was submitted all was dena that was necessary.
There were many other qtieeehieii - s which should have
been submitted; amoug others, relative to hankie
Know Nothings, and a clause requiring the tleveirma
to be a citizen for twenty years, etc. Ho further de
nied that the slavery clause had ever fairly been
submitted. He then sketched the current eveets
since- it was first proposed to repeal the Missouri
Compromise, instancing the Achison meetings in
Missouri, which passed resolutions that Missouri
would extend her institutions over Kansas et what.
ever cost of blood, and contending that these meet
ings, as well as Lecompton itself, were the direct
fruit of that repeal. The programme of these meet
ings was carried out in full; the Missourians with
bowie knife and revolver in va led Kansas, usurped
the Legislature, and in three short weeks enacted the
whole code of Missouri. There stands the appalling
fact; there is no mantle of shame wide enough to
cover it; one more act only is wasting—to pass this
act, and history will declare , that in the same year
when Russia emancipates slaves, republican America
is trampling down her principles of independence,
and imposes a Constitution un her Territories estab
lishing slavery.
Here the Senate received the House Printing bill.
Mr. Foster said that he would never assent to an
other State North ief 36° 30', entering the Union
with slavery. He considered himself hound by the
ordinance of 1787, and would never recognize its re
peal. Referring to ihe 7th article of the Lecompti n
Constitution assertiug the right of property in slaves,
hu said that the principle enunciated was a reproach
is the ago; it would have been outrageous to have
incorporated such a principle even in a Cm stitution
made for a Southertit,State. Ile alluded to a clause
in the bill of righted glaring that no f. ee negro shall
live in the territory Ile thought it a strange clause
to exist in a republican constitution.
Mr. Green reminded him that the Souls provision
exists in the Topeka Constitution.
Mr. Foster was not advised that the Topeka Con
stitution had been received by the Senate. lie did
not believe that it Containael such a clause. 'There
is no question, he continued, that by the Lecompton
Constitution, free negroes must be killed.
Mr. Green asked if the Senator contended that
free negroes entering free States having provisions
forbidding them, as Illinois for instance, must be
killed.
Mr. Foster's replied ltd: the Lecempten C.mstitu
tion says so much ; it says that no freeman Cali be
exiled ; no free negroes can live there.
Mr. Green—Tile Senator's argument is absurd.
Mr. Trumbull captained that the law of Illinois
provided for the tree negro. It was riot in the Con
stitution that the law dt-! - o-•=, f him
Mr. Green— Hew
Mr. Trumbull—litres Com out.
Mr. Green—Kansas will du the came.
Mr. Foster proceeded, reading the clause providing
ter a change in the Con: etutiou, oontending that tie
direct meaning is that the pe.ple may alter every.
thing hut the slavery clause; slavery is t, he per
petual ; establish that Constitution, and it can never
be taboliehed except by the consent ,very s l ave _
holder. .
- -
Mr. Mason asked if the Senator understood that
Congress has power to lock into State Constitutions,
with the view of determining the relations of per
sons held in servitude? He asked for the informa
tion of his people as to the Senator's views.
Mr. Foster explained; if the territexy have within
itself principles at war with liberty, Congress had
the right to reject it.
Mr. Mason said in reply that it throw a flood of
light on the principles actuating the Republican
party. If be understood the Senator, Congress had
the power to decide whether the government was
Republican in form, if it established slavery it is
not Republican.
Mr. Foster did not think his language susceptible
of such inference. He repeated that when a terri•
tory applied for admission with a Constitution at
war with the plainest principles of Liberty, he could
not call it Republican in form, and would not admit
it.
Mr. Mason.—Not Republican ?
Mr. Foster.—Not Republican because not recog
nising the principles of freedom. He was not pre-
pared to go to the extreme extent that that State
may be exelnded on the ground alone that it reoog-
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Mr. Taylor, Louisiana, offered a resolution to in
quire into the facts attending the seizure by the French
boat of the bark Adriatic, and resolutions to provide
for redress to the owners of the bark and the proven-
Lion of similar proceedings.
Mr. Taylor contended that7no:court of a foreign
country had a right to condemn an American vessel,
for a failure to carry rights in the absence of an
American law requiring such practice. The act of
France was an attack upon our sovereignty, an in
fringement upon the law of nations, tie thought
that owing to the importantprineipleB involved imme
diate steps ,hould be taken by the government rela
tire to the matter.
The subject was referred to the committee on For
eign Affairs.
The Iluu:e passed the bill appropriating $,310,000
to pay the deficiency printing bills o: Thirty third
and Thirty-fourth Congress, and then took up the
Consular and Diplomatic appropriation bill.
Mr. Bocock replied to Mr. Millson contending
or the legitimate: construction of the Kansas-Nebras
a Bill. He did not encourage teritorial sovereignty,
and that the Lecompton constitution was the work m
the people of Kansas.
Mr. Dawe4 criticized the Presidents' Special Me:
sage, and denounced Lecompton as the creature t.
fraud and the legitimate fruits of slavery.
