\,THEI TAX PAYERS.
Every honest citizen should take a deep in
terest in seeing that none but honest, econom
ical and competent men are put into offices,
which in any manner affect the tax payers.—
In New York, a party of tax payers is being
organized to keep down the taxes. In ineak
ing of this organization, the Ledger says, that
the object is good, no one can doubt... Every
good citizen is really interested in keeping
down the taxes to the lowest possible figure.
But for these, there arc hundreds of manu
factures that would be carried on within the
corporate limits of this city, that now have to
be carried on beyond. The city is the centre
of buying all the raw material and selling the
produce, The workmen could here be more
readily engaged, and live cheaper and more
comfortably from the convenience of the mar
ket.s and superior cheapness of all other sup.
plffis. Almost all manufacturing businesses,
to = supply the city, could be better carried on,
but Tor these taxes affecting rents, &c.
In Allegheny county, the Democratic party
is the ono which most strongly supports all
measures for keeping down taxes. The poor
feel th;.; taxes far more than the rich. They
have them to pay in increased rents and the
high price placed upon goods, so that the in
terest of one is the interest of all. In this
county we have suffered greatly from hoary
taxation, and it has been the Democratic par
ty only,which has endeavored to check the evil.
The office of County Commissioners is one of
the utmost importance to every tax payer,
and the antecedents of the candidates for this
position should he most thoroughly scrutin
,,ized by the people before casting their votes.
<Ale people will pay their honest debts, and
liberally support their County Government,
but they will also insist that extravagant ex
penditures of the public money, the use of
the public money - for private purposes, from
month to month and year to year by those
who should pay it into the Treasury, shall be
stopped. The system of allowing tax collec
tors to hold back the public money until the
last moment, while the warrant holder goes
begging, or the ;;County borrows at "bor
kers' rates" of interest, will no longer be
permitted. The nominee of the recent con
vention of the opposition for County Commis
sioner has been, for some years, a tax collec
tor in Indiana Township. How stands his
record ? Has he paid up ? It can be seen
by referring to the last County Auditor's Re
port, and when we have a little more time to
examine the matter, we may give the figures.
LOTTERIES.
Mayor Tiemann of New York, has stirred
up a hornet's nest in his andeavor to suppress
the Georgia Lotteries. In that State, both
the pfess and public opinion aro divided on
the subject. On the one hand, it is contend
ed that Mayor Tiernan has been led to pander
to the profits of other lottery dealers to the
prejudice of Messrs. Swan &Co., who are al
leged to be men of superior business capacity
and possessed of ample means. This would
appear to be the case from the fact, that sonic
of the•ll3ol3t eminent 'lawyers in the State of
Georgia have been employed to Prosecute this
matter, who will have to be paid a large fee
for their services, and this money cannot be
paid from the treasury of the city, there must
be others who have a pecuniary interest in
crushing these gentlemen, and the Mayor of
New York should not. allow them to use his
hands to pull their nuts out of the fire.
The New York Herald, in speaking of the
matter, says, that although there are at pres
ent but four States now legalizing this busi
ness, it is said its extent is fully equal to that
of the time when lotteries were not prohibit
ed in any of the States—the sales of tickets
being estimated at over $5,000,000 annually.
There are now in active operation two lotter
ies in Georgia, two in Maryland. two in K en
.e is tlie
tudy, and
draw ever
- Lottery, of Kentucky, just purchas
ed by Mr. Ben. Wood, for the franchise of
which he is to pay $BO,OOO. In spite of laws
to the contrary, their tickets are sold through
out the country: and, as if for the purpose of
rendering the Georgia lotteries the greatest
possible aid, we find Mayor Tiemann helping
them along by the greatest advertising dodge
ever known.
Death of Hon. J. P. Henderson
We refer to our telegraphic column for a
short sketch of the life and services of Hon.
J. P. Henderson, of Texas, who died in Wash
ington City on Friday afternoon, and whose
funeral obsequies took place on Sunday.

Pennsylvania Bank case completely exoner

As.we anticipated, Gen. Moorhead, in the
Gazelle of yesterday, defines his position. He
says: "I stand fairly and squarely upon the
platform adopted in Philadelphia in 1856."
This satisfies the Gazette, and it calls upon
all good Republictyas to go with it heart and
hand in supporting the General.

EDWIN C. WILSON,
Adjutant General of Pennsylvania
Dear Poet :—I arrived in this city of mud and
marble, backs and hotels, several days ago, and have
since my arrival, employed the Iliac in admiring the
fine buildings which are to be found in such profu
sitm. To my Pittsburgh eyes, which have yet before
them a film of coal smoke, the sight is enchanting.
Great palaces of hotels and warehouses, magnificent
dwellings tit for noblemen, and one hundred and
twenty thousand inhabitants, where he a few years
since there were no city, no buildings, I,nd no pee•
plc! I have often read similar reflections by letter
writers, but seine how or miler I never realized them.
T. he euro, it was sufficien:ly wonderful, this mush
room city; but when I saw the great piles. of orna
mented .gone and iron reared in massive strength,
then I toil,/ appreciated this wonder of wonders.
My trip pr ved very pleasant. I started on the
Fort W ay ne and Chicago road, under the care of Con
ductor Hogan, thou whom none can be more atten
tive to duty, aril made fine time to Crestline, passing
through a suceession of delightful scenery and beau
tiful towns. At that pint Mr. Fisher relieved Mr.
Hogan. Though the road from Crestline to Fort
Wayne was rather shaky, owing to the immense
amount of rain which hail deluged the country, the
trip was safe, rapid and agreeable. I had no time to
spond t.t. Fort W..yne, -.which, from all accounts, must
-be a beautiful little city. The train was at this point
taken eltarge of by Conductor Shipman, who re
mained in authority until we reached the western
terminus of the road at Plymouth. The companj ,
have , tornmeneed the extension of their road to Chi
ea;te, and I understand Mr. Cassse in this city, making
arrangements for depot grounds. The Peru and Chi
cago he a d intersects at this point, and carries the
busit,e.;:s of the Pittsburgh Road through to Chicago.
We made the trip under Conductor Robbins, a very
pleasant officer, in good time, and we closed our
journey westward at the portly Richmond House, a
noble structure, conducted with a quiet efficiency
and order that 18 delightful to a citizen of a slower
place than this. Mr. Bowen, the clerk, preSvided us
with information, and armed with it, we were pre
pared to venture out into this sea, whirlpool, or what
ever you may please to call it, of Chicago. Capt. F.
X. Reno, Mr. Vankirk, of the firm of A. Bradley &
Co , and Col. APKinney,of Pittsburgh,wore passengers
on the trains, and contributed to make the trip very
agreeable. Capt. Reno is off for Minnesota to sell
his towns, and Col. fir Kinney (they aro both river
men) is also interested in Minnesota cities.
If a man does not have regard to the future wel
fare of hie soul, I should imagine Chicago to be a
good place for him to live in. Apparently, every
man is bent on making money, and all sorts of ini
quities are practised to succeed therein. I make a
profession of my everlasting faith in and preference
for old Pittsburgh, smoke and all. Give me the old
hills for scenery at last,—true hearts and old friends,
who are not forever flitting. Out hero, a man re
news his acquaintance every three months. Ile
spend- a weak out of town, and upon his return
finds hie.accustomed visiting places deserted. Every
thing is rushing, rushing—no man kn.)ws anything
thing here. I asked a few questions, and only ft
few; was bluffed off; nobody know anything, end
was not very polite in telling me so. I asked at one
newspaper office where another was. Nobody knew
anything more of its whereabouts than if it never
existed. If we at home are not so rapid, we are
more polite.
We can supply Chicago with handsome women,
and have plenty left. The only good looking wo
men they have here, I am informed, belong to a
clnas not safe to " tie to."
But r must close Chicago is a fine city to
.44-1,1111 a hard one to live in. I fool moie attached
to old li - it7Q.?!..1 1 wheri—l return I shall set
tle down, contended to live my life there, where
strong friends, substantial wealth, and unpretending
goodness are the order of the day, rather than rush•
ing, whirling and unceasing change.
Yours, PITTSBURGH.
hi New Orleans, the other day, Gen. " Billy
Bnw Legs" was escorted to the National Tel
egraph Offie where the operators explained
the wonders of the telegraph. He compre
hended it quite well, and expressed a desire
to speak to the " treat Chief at Washington."
Billy was informed that he could speak to
the President, and he dictated the following
message
New ORLEANS, May 18.
" 7'o Jas. Buchanan, President of Me U. 8:
Billy Bowlegs greets the Great Chief of the
Wbiteq, and v. , i6.1.1es him long life.
(Signed) " BILLY BOWLEGS."
The message was received here, at the tele.
graph office Willards,' and immediately commu
nicated to his Excellency.
The President did not reply that day, and
Billy became impatient, and asked the office
here, "Why 'bat message was not answered ?"
This brought an answer from the President the
next day, as follows:
" To Chief Billy Bowlegs.:
" The President returns the greeting of the
great - Indian warrior, Billy Bowlegs, and wishes
him long life, health and prosperity in his new
home.
The steamer, bearing the chief, his fortunes
and his followers, left the same evening for the
West, in the track for the setting sun.
—A lawyer, at Madison, Wisconsin, objected
to a juryman because he declared that if the law
of the State was opposed to God's law he should
feel obliged to obey the latter. But Judge Col
lins overruled the objection, on the giound that
it was not to be presumed that the laws of the
State were in conflict with the law of God.

Phiisdelphig. Bulletin. ie a emiplete surprise to
the, ptirple of this latitude, /aid we therefore
have taken some pains to ascertain the origin of
it, and we shall give our readers the result of
our inquiries.
It must be remembered that New Orleans has
been a very disorderly city for some years; that
every election has been the occasion of a serious
riot; that the rioters have never been punished ;
that crimes of every variety are reported there
daily to an extent which would create horror in
a Northern city ; that the police and the au
thorities generally have been charged with con
niving at the disorders and crimes of the city,
and that the dissatisfaction among property
holders and the better disposed class of citizens
has been deep and wide-spread. This is the
state of things described by the opposition 1.,
city government, thriugh we have no means of
ascertaining whether it is entirely correct.
TUB COMING CITY ELEOTI oN
The city has for some years been in the hand
of the Americans, or "Know-Nothings," and
the apparent hopelessness of overturning them
and electing a Democratic city government has
led to the adoption of extraordinary measures.
The next oily election, when a Mayor, Street
Commissioner, Recorder and Alderman are to
be chosen, takes place on Monday next, June
ith. By way of defeating the American ticket,
au independent ticket has been nominated late
ly, with Maj. G. T. Boauregard, late of the U. S.
Army, as the candidate for Mayor. The letter
to him, signed by some hundreds of citizens,
asking him to consent to-be a candidate, is as
follows:
"To MAJOR F. T. BEAIIIIEGARD.—Dear Sir: We,
the undersigned, citizens of New Orleans, entertain.
ing a deep interest in the good name and prosperity
of our city, and feeling the importance of rescuing
the administration of the Municipal Government
from the baneful influences of Party politics, respect-
fully ask your aid in so desirable an effort, by pm.-
miffing us to use your name as an independent can
didate for the office of Mayor, at the ensuing election
to be held on the 7th of June next."
Major Beauregard's reply to this letter is as
follows:
NEw Onmutts, May 25, 1858.
" Gentlemen : I have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt this day of the letter of the 20th inst.,
signed by so largo a number of my fellow citizens,
irrespective of party, requesting me to permit the
use of my name as au "Independent Candidata" for
the office of Mayor of this City."
"I gratefully acknowledge how sensibly I feel the
high honor conferred upon me by this application.
But as it is for a special purpose, that of restoring
the gi , od name and prosperity of our city to the for
mer nigh standard, and to administer its municipal
affairs agreeably to god order and economy, it is
only with diffidence that I can accede to their re
quest, being tearful that the task imposed upon me
may still prove abortive, unless I receive after cita
tion, the assistance of an independent Council, and
that of a strong and well organized Police, wh oh I
consider indispensable to carry out the desired re
form Trusting, then, entirely to the support of
these of my fellow citizens whose interests are so
touch at stake. I cheerfully accede to their wishes,
and allow them tw use my name as they desire, with
the clear i.ndersianding, i owever, that I am to be
" Independent " in all and every sense of the term,
and am only to be guided by honesty, justice and
equity in all things, and unto all men, ID administer
ing, as their Chief Magistrate, the laws and regula
tions of the City of New Orleans.
F. T. BEAUREGARD.
To A. Brother, Esq., Chairman Nominating Com
mittee of the Independent Voters of New Orleans,
' and others.
THE FIRST MUTTERING OF THE STORM.
The New Orleans Bee, of May 27th, in refer
ring to this nomination, and commending it, la
ments the utter absence of all interest in the
election, but predicts that now this will he
changed, and that a full vote will be called out.
It says :
" A tow days ago we expressed our concern at the
utter absence of every symptom of popular interest
in our approaching municipal election, and endeav
ored to direct the attention of citizens to the imper
tance of a sound and health.nl administration of our
city affairs. The appearance of the independent
ticket, if it accomplishes nothing else, will in all
probability, arouse the community from its supine
alutuber, and create a sufficient amount of excite
ment to insure an expresst"ca of public opinion at the
polls somewhat more definite and decided than has
been obtained for several years, Thus it will hap
pen that whatever ticket prevails, its success will bo
the result of an undoubted manifestation of popular
' sentiment, and the' victors will feel that they have
vested with authority by a majority of the bond fide
electors of the good city of New Orleans."
The Bee, however, scarcely could have ex
expected such a "manifestation of poptilar sen
timent" as the formation of a Vigilance Com
mittee, the seizure of the arsenals, forming of
barricades, and a battle in the streets.
The True Delta of May 27th, in noticing the
nomination of Major Beauregard, says he is
"A gentleman who, above all others, in our
humble opinion, is the best qualified and fittest, in
the deplorable condition of affairs existing here, to
undertake the serious work of reformation, to re
duce the ruffian elements which, for several years,
have been tolerated or encouraged in their satur
nalia of blood, if not insurbordination and lawless.
ness, to obedience and subjection. and to give to de
cent, industrious, and law-abiding citizens that safety
and security which it is their inalienable right to
possess, and of which they cannot be ever legally or
rightly dispossessed."
AN INFJ..ADIMATORY APPEAL.
The True Delta, in the same article, appeals
to the citizens in favor of the Independent ticket
as follows :
" This is no time for petty objections or recollec
tions of old feuds, no time for the revival of old
party squabbles or extinct antipathies ; the salvation
of New Orleans is the momentous issue at stake, and
its importance can neither be forgotten or denied.
If men possessed of wealth and compelled to remain
here and labor, will permit their unutterable disgust
at and abhorrence of the atrocious crimes committed
at all times, but more flagrantly and wickedly at
election periods, for the last three or four years, to
keep them from the polls at the approaching election;
then it will bo for that
_portion of our population
whose liven-u.d. propstty are more particularly at
du by of privileged villians, to arrange their
little affairs and at whatever sacrifice prepare to find
homes whore there are laws made to be respected,
and where at least their lives and the honor of their
families will be safe from violence and pollution. We
will not, however, yet permit ourselves to believe
that the assassins and robbers who now rule us, and
who already confidently proclaim that the hones',
industrious, permanent and intelligent population of
this city shall not be allowed to deposit their tickets
in the ballot boxes at the election in June, will be al
lowed longer to dominate; or that the well-dressed,
oath-bound conspirators by whom their movements
are directed, will longer enjoy the immunity ex
tended to them for so rlong a time; for we believe
that those who ought to come forward and lead the
law abiding and well-disposed aro now as ready to
do their duty as we know the mass of the people have
always boon to test their manhood against the infir-
Mous miscreants who have been, to all of our dis
grace, so long tolerated in their villanies here. Wo
know that the men have never been wanting who
would have swept the dens of this city of their filthy
inmates, and reformed the administration of criminal
justice, had those who ought to have come forward
done so, or had the officers of the State shown either
resolutioh, courage, or sympathy with them. Let
these recollections, however, pass, we are going into
a new phase of municipal existence, and it is not
what might have been done, but what it is now need
ful to do, that we ought to concern ourselves about.
If the right spirit animates us, our city will be re
deemed; if, however, those who ought to stand up
like men shrink like cowards, or hesitate about the
employment of the needful means to obtain their
rights at the ballot box, then we deserve to continue
as we have been for the last four years, the trembling
slaves of the cut-throats and murderers of every
State in the Union, and every nation of Europe, who
have sought a sanctuary here."
It was doubtless by snob appeals as this, full
of " assassins," " atrocious crimes," " violence
and pollution," " cut-throats and murderers,"
and other strong epithets, that the popular mind
of New Orleans, having in view an important
city election, was wrought up to the pitch of or
ganizing " A Vigilance Committee." Doubtless
the party in power had adopted new measures to
secure their success at the coming election, and
their opponents felt called on to resort to extra
ordinary measures also. The Vigilance Com
mittee was formed on Wednesday, June 2d, and
on Thursday morning the papers contained the
proclamation, which we have already published.
There are blanks in the sketch which cannot
be filled until we have farther news, bat we are
convinced that this popular excitement is all
relative to the election to be held to-day.

Mr. Houston, of Texas, announced to the Senufo
the death of his colleague, Hon. J. P. Henderson.
From his speeoh on the occasion we learn that the
deceased was born in Lincoln county, North Caro
lina, March 31, 1808. He received a liberal edo
cation, and chose the profession of the law, to which
he had always been attached, and in which ho
eminently successful. His health becoming affected,
ho went to Cuba. On returning to the Stares, ho h.
cated in Mississippi, until the invasion of Texas by
the Mexicans awakened his energy, and he did much
towards arousing the chivalry of the South. On re
pairing to Texas ho was appointel Brigadier Hone
ral in the Texan army. When the army disbanded,
he retired to private life, till called to be Attorney
General of the State, which office he retained till a
vacancy occurred in the State department, by the
decease of Gen. Austin, the illustrious Father of
Texas. When Mr. Rusk having declined, Mr. Hen
derson was appointed to the office, and so remained
till 1837. He was then minister to England and
France to t.egotiate or. the recognition of Texan in
dependence. He resumed law OP the annexatien
was consummated. Next was a . member from Au
gustin minty, and was afterwards elected fir -t
Governor of Texas. Atter some time, a requiiitiol
was made on Texas for troops for the Mexican war.
Henderson took the command. lie acted cot
spicuous part at Monterey, and was commit. toned
to negotiate the articles of the capitulation of 11,e.
garrison. He declined a re election as Govor nor.
stince then, he has recognised as an eminent citizen,
and on Rusk's death, was unanimously elected to the
Senate. He was no ordinary man. He made his
mark in Texas, and the nation is not unacquainted
with his merits, and Mr. Houston was proceeding to
pass a feeling eulogium, when, bursting into tear. , ,
he sat down without moving the usual resolutions.
Mr. Davis, of Mississippi, added his testimony trt
the personal worth and lion courage of the deceased
having served with him at Monterey.
Messrs. Crittenden, of Kentucky, Reid, of North
Carolina, and Ileyne, of South Carolina, contributed
their expressions of o- teem.
Mr. Seward, of New York, frog. his intimacy with
the late Mr. Rusk, having recently formed c.n ac
quaintance with the deceased, added a weed of praise,
taking occasion to add, that if a centrifugal force
istr.: in politice,there is a centripetal power in the
cottlitry and ingress' to iounteract 'any tendency

nine days march of the encampment.

of Dr. ➢PLane's great t-pecitic, prepared by Ph ming Bros, of
Pittsburgh, Penn's, it was almost beyond the teach of medi

thanks to the search of Dr. !It'Ltine, most coraphdely brought
