We invite the especial attention of our
Merehants, Manufacturers, and other dealers
to the advantages which the Weekly Post
presents as a medium of advertising their
business. The circulation of our WeAlv
paper is now very large not only in the coun
try districts of our own county, but in all
the neighboring counties of Western Penn
sylvania and Ohio. In Washington, Fayette,
Westmoreland, Armstrong, Indiana, Clarion, I
Butler, Beaver, Mercer, Cambria, and other
counties, we have an excellent circulation,
which, as the club rates for our large sheet
are only one dollar per year, is constantly in
creasing, and our paper is mainly taken by
persons, who, from time to time visit Pitts
burgh to make their purchases. These are
the people whom it is the interest of adver
tisers to reach, and our Weekly presents an
admirable medium for doing it. Most of our
wholesale merchants are accustomed to ad
vertise in the spring and fall, in the local
journals of the counties, whence they desire
to derive custom—this is well and shows that
they have a just appreciation of the benefits
of advertising. We now offer them in the
Weekly Post, a medium, which in amount ei
circulation among the farmers, merchants and
general dealers of Western Penesylvanta, is
equal to at least five country newspapers.
The object which they seek can be gained by
making nee of its columns and a large portion
of the cost saved. We are provided with
styles of type, to give advertisements a hand
some display, so that they may he read with.
out spectacles, and any business man who
may wish to ascertain the nature, extent, and
locality of our country circulation, is welceme
to an examination
. of our mail books, it he
will call at our counting moan. Our terms
are moderate, and many of oar business men
aware of the value of our Weekly paper
as an advert;sement circulator, have availed
themselves of its columns. We confidently
refer ro their experience, knowing that every
advertisement in the Weekly Poll makes a fair
and, speedy return for the money invested.
THE TENTH OF
Thirteen years ago to.day, on the ever
memorable 10th of April, 1845, a large por
tion of oar city was devastated by a fire of al
most unparalleled extent and destructiveness.
As the luried night of that day passed slowly
away, thousands of citizens lay with sleepless
eyes and aching hearts, upon the couches fur
nished by friendship or by charity, end thought
that they were ruined—co all of there beyond
recovery. But thirteen years experience has
proved that this was one greed rnietake! It
is now generally conceded that the fire of '45
was a benefit, rather than an injury, to our
ty. The plain necessities of the case aroused
the energy and the active industry of our self- ,
reliant people, and as if by magic, new and
more elegant structures sp- eddy replaced the
inferior bnildings,which the fire had destroy
ed.
Owners of lote were compelled to put
their hoarded or invested treasures hate sirs
culation, by paying the mechanic, the laborer
and those who supplied the materials to re
place their buildings. Employment, was plenty
and well paid; new capital sought investment
iu our city; new and enterpris ng men came
here to work--to trade--to manufacture, sad
ho buy and to sell, and that which looVed like
a lose was in tact a great gain. An impetus
was thus given to every description of busk
nese, which resulted in increased prosperty
to all, and few—very few, now look back
upon the "great fire" as a serious disaster.—
In its presence it was terrible, fearful, horrible,
but in its subsequent effects, it resulted in
general and ;udividual prosperity.
Who that now looke et our city, can see
anything to remind them of that "great catas
trophe" which rung over the world, and was
supposed to have stricken us like a paralysis)
There are no sigus of it visible, and since its
occurrence, PPtsburgh has been prosperous,
and her population contented, happy and
thriving.
But, on'this anniversary, it qr peculiarly tips
propriate that we should recall to memory
that noble generosity ou the part of our fel
low countrymen in almost, every city in the
Union, by which all danger of even temperas
ry distress was promptly relieved. The re
ception of the calamitous news that a large
portion of ow city was in ruins, was followed
at once by most liberal contributions for res
lief, from all parts of the couutry. One hued
red and sixty-one thousand three hundred
and eighty-four dollars—the voluntary contri
butions of noble hearted men and women—
was received and distributed among thirteen
hundred and twenty-five persons who suffered
by that fire, in sums of from 55 to $650 each,
averaging nearly $l2B for each recipient of
relief. Thirteen years have passed away, and
we now notice in the list of those who then
shared in this generous gift, the names of
many of our most prosperous and wealthy
citizens. Panic stricken at first, they soar
found that "all was not Lost," and with coins
mendable perseverenco and ener gy they have
renewed their fortunes. But let them ever
continue to look upon these donations as but
lent from the great. treasury of charity, and be
ever ready as occasion deinauda or opportuni
ty offers, to repay ie kind acts and good works
to others, that which has beuefitted them.
Thus shall they effectual y wrap themselves in
that "cloak which covereth a multitude of
sins."
Lte"ubiicuti Got-
The Opposition committee of correspondence
have fixed upon the 2d of June, for holding
their convention to nominate a County Tick
et. There are any quantity of candidates in
tae field—all true patriote—perfectly willing
to have a grab at the leaves and fishes about
the Oonrt 13uune, and each able to prove
most conclusively that by electing him, the
people would have the "right man in the right
place." The contest for the nominations for
several of the ;offices will be warm, vigorous
and exciting.
Correct ion
In noting the sales of Pig Meted in yowler
day's paper, an error occurred. Mr. Plumer
sold his iron at 826 aot 829. It was written
correctly, but the printer must add this to the
other sins for which he has to answer.

There is stated to he au extensive organi
zationOin the Southern States to aid the liberal
party in Mexico, and important developments
are expected in a few days. Santa Anna is
reported to have no party of any strength in
that country, and hie return to power is con•
sidered doubtful.
A National Armory or Foundry is among
the measures which are now under discussion,
and we observe that Richmond, Wheeling
and Alexandria. in Virginia, Cumberland,
Maryland, W ashiLgton City, and a large num
ber of other places are spoken of as suitable
sites fm• the proposed establishment. It
strikes us that our own city is the most ad
vantageous location for an institution of this
kind to he found in the country. MI that is
claimed for other points we have here in groats
er abundance,of better quality and more cheap
ly obtainable. air coal is unrivalled in the
world for mechanical purpos , s ; iron of every
desciiption is cheap and abundant we have
the beet of mechanics here—many of them
of already tried skill and experience in cast
ing heavy ordnance for the Government. and
' labor, materials and building sites are cheap,
and all the appliances of steam and machi
nery can be had at the smallest possible cost.
As a point for shipment our facilities are un
r valled. By river and by railroad we have
facile communication with every principal
point, East, West, North or South. Look at
the map of the United States, and if there is
a single point which can compare with Pitts.
burgh in the advantages we have named, it
has been placed upon the map since we stud•
led Geography. If this Foundry is to be et.
tablished, its site should not be selected by
political jobbers nor individual interest ; if it
is to he a National concerti, let it be located
at a place where it can best serve the Nation's
interest at the least expense. In our view
Pittbnrgh is that place.

On the sixth inst. Mr. Thomas Berry was
killed in Washington city by John T. and James
T. Devlin, producing a profound sensation. The
tragedy occurred at 4 o'clock P. M., at 629
Pennsylvania avenue, Capitol Hill, the residence
of the mother in l Lir of rho deceased One of
the brothers Devlin is a lawyer, practicing in the
Court, and the other a student-at law.
Mt. Devlin the eider died 90E113 time last fa'l,
and the two sons and Mrs. Barry the si3ter resided
with ttmie mother. At the examination of the
accused before Justice Goddard, Mr. Samuel E.
Smith, of Baltimore testified that he was in com
pany with Mr. Berry, who proposed to witness
to go with him to the house of his mother-in-law
to get n change of linen. Leaving witness at
the door, Berry went iu. After waiting some
iime at the door, and not finding that Berry re
turned, witness went into the house, and hearing
angry words between the parties, witness asked
Berry—" what is its matter V Mrs. Devlin then
-aid to witue3s, "they are going to fight." lie
(witness) requested Berry to leave the Bosse
with him ; Berry was then retreating from young
Devlin woo pursued him into the yard, CAugi,t
It ld of him and threw him down. John T.
Devlin (the eldest brother) then held him, whilst
James P. Devlin, with a bowie-knife, stabbed
nine several times iu the breast, which caused
his immediate death. Witness then fled, fearing
ib,:t he might bo att,n;ked, and g;lve information
to the police. The scene in the magistrate's
Alice was most offecti. g The wife of Cue: ,
murdered man was there, confronting her own
pothers as the murderers of her husband'
fhe two Devlius mere fully committed by Justice
tioddard, to take their trial before the Criminal
Court
A coroner's inquest wa ,, held this merning,tind
Lhe testimony ely;ited want to show that Berry
wronged the U vim family, by first seducing
one of the
.\ :Jll, Devlin's sisters; but he af
terwards married her, and thus thought perhaps
that tie had wiped out the stain of the crime.
Afts: bis nwrriage i.c removed with his wife to
Ohio, but recently returned, and was, at the
of his death, engaged in compiling ,a directory
of Washington. Mrs Mary A. Devlin, the
mother, saidshe did not cons der T. B. Berry her
son in law ; her daughter was married to him,but
Le had :another wife in Pennsylvania. Be came
to her house to see her daughter, but was always
for oidd , m ; he told her youngest sonhe would g!v i ,
her a confounded whipping, &c. Mr. Smith,
who said he was the agent of Berry, and read
many of his private letters, had never heard of
his having another wife. Berry had five wounds
n his breast.

one Pope, whom he regarded with holy horror
as the Man of Sin, he at once put an end to all
cunstroversy by the assertion that, " the Pope

The Romance Knocked Out of That
Story.
Our readers will remember a sad tale of a
young woman, who was highly educated, was a
ward of Henry Ward Beecher, became a victim
of intemperance, and was lately discovered in
Milwaukio, in abject want. Mr. Beecher mays
the woman never was his adopted child. Ile
says:
Her history was even darker and more rnelan
chol daring her Brooklyn life than the narrative
rep -osents. But I regard the statement that she
wat injured by unrequited love as entirely with
out fouedation. From the day she landed on
our shores, (she was born in Ireland,) I have
rea on to think that she employed unusnal pow
ers, with extraordinary address, for the purposes
of deception. Hundreds of people in the city
were made to pity and relieve her condition by
talcs that were varied with extraordinary Oita
to suit her purposes ; and I believe that within
two or three years she must have received and
squrvudered several thousand dollars.
She was supposed to be dead It seems how
ever that she is worse than dead.

Mr. Lovejoy made an ineffectual effort to introduce
a resolution calling on the Secretary of War to in

from their duties and at the seat of Government, an , l
how many hold civil offices by election or othr
wise.
Mr. Branch spoke with reference to the reconsider
ation of the vote by which the Deficiency bill we
rejected. He hesitated to declare that the monstronq
expenditures of the army had almost reached a point
to induce the entire country to rise and demand re
form, and pointed out the way by which this could
be effected. Ho believed, as heretofore declared by
the House in form of a resolution, that Utah was in
a state of rebellion, and it is now unju.t and too late
to undertake to control the discretion of the Presi
dent as to the disposal of the troops.
Mr. J. Glancy Jones, in reply, said that the Quar
termaster General did not send the estimates ~n his
own responsibility, but they were received with the
endorsement of the Secretary of War.
Mr. Branch was satisfied with the explanation,
and was glad to find that no attempt on the propriety
had been perpetrated by any Bureau'othoer.
The vote by which the Deficiency bill was yesttr

The Deficiency bill passed, yeas 1 i 1, nays 97.

Nothing official has transpired regarding the In
dian Loan. It was supposed that the greater port of
the loan will be taken by the joint stook bank. 3 and
insurance companies, so that it will be scarcely heard
of in the money market. It was also supposed 01,4
the biddings will range from 98 to 100.
The supply of money in the market is very abtt,t
dent. There was no increase in the applications t , t
the Bank on Friday, but a better demand prevailod
in the open market, and bills wore freely discounted
out of doors at 21@2k per cent. The terms for long
dates paper had, however, advanced to 4, and even
in some oases to 6 per centum.
The Times city article says that the funds opened
steadily at the improved prices of yesterday and sub
sequently experienced a further advance, which was
well maintained. It was the general opinion that
the bank rate will be reduced on Thursday next,
April Ist, to 2i per cent.
From St. Loup,
ST. Louis, April 9.—The Leavenworth correspondent
of the Democrat says that the policy recommended
in an address to the public, framed by one of the
Convention Committee, is, that they give the Leav
enworth Constitution their hearty ratification, and
refuse to accept any organic law derived from the
Lecompton Constitution or the Federal Government.
The address does not positively recognize the Le
compton Constitution as fundamental law, oven
thongs Congress should receive it, as without the
sanction of the people it will be null and void. It
is distinctly understood that the Convention would
not tolerate the policy of any Free State man quali
fying himself under the Lecompton bill of righis,
and declares the right of all men to control their own
personal affairs to be law, and inalienable.
The St. Joseph Gaiette notices the arrival in that
place of Alexander Constant, from Fort Kearney, on
the 30th ult. Mr. Constant reports that Brigham
Young had notified Coi. Johnson to leave the Terri
tory by the lath of Marsh, otherwise the troops
would be annihilated. Brigham Young had tendered
to the army sufficient provisions to last them to the
States. Mr. Constant met a supply train of one hun
dred and sixty wagons, accompanied by four compa
nies of troops, on the Ist lira., on Little Blue. In
dians all peaceable.
From VVeishington.
WASHINGTON CITY, April 9.—Mr. Peter Besancon,
in a card published this morning, says that secretary
Thompson and himself have been for years on friend
ly terms till yesterday's occurrence ; that the meeting
then was of a friendly nature, and that the affair was
unpremeditated, and the result of misunderstanding.
No one can regret the difficulty worse than himself.
He adds that he 1288 often visited the Department,
and was armed only for self-defense in anticipation
of an attack from another quarter.
Execution of Anderson and Richards at
Lancaster, Pa. ,
LASCIASTER, April 9.—Anderson and Richards wore
hung together at twenty-five minutes before twelve
o'clock, to-day. Both were penitent, calm and corn
posed. Andersen died without a struggle, and prayed
on the gallows for himself and Richards. They
made no speeches. Andeison's confession was writ
ten by himself, and is a thrilling narrative. They
murdered Mrs. Garber and Mrs. Ream for twelve and
a half cents to get a pint of whisky. Both were
drank al the time.
