'UNCLE TOBY AND THE FLY.
The conductors of tho True Press are nor
vousiSr afraid of an attempt "to write them
down." The inflated legal coxcomb, who
feeds on the writings of Junius, and digests
them into editorials for that sheet, need not
fear that he will ever be " written down" any
thing else than " an ass."
The editorial "production " in Wednesday's
Post, which has 'disturbed his bile, was
written by no " gentleman holding an im
portant (or any other) position in one of the
Railroad Companies." It was written by a
gentleman holding a position, which we deem
in the highest degree honorable and responsi
ble—the cditof of the Pittsburgh Daily Post.
The editorial matter of this paper, since we
hake had control of it, has all been prepared
by ourself, or by our regularly employed and
paid assistants under our own direction
and supervision. The Press wishes to know
who are our endorsers. We do not care
about publishing our private business to the
world, but if the Paul Pry editor of that
sheet will call at the office of the Post, we
will permit him to examine our Bills Paya
ble Book, which will show our endorsers to be
our own personal friends and relatives with
not a railroad man, nor a bondholder among
them. In return we shall claim to see the Bill
Books of the gentlemen who control the
Press, which are said to contain minutes of
some remarkably pleasant " shaving transac
tions," some of which are rumored to have
-been both 'illegal and dishonorable.
A Bid for the Presidency.
The editor of the Journal is in favor of
none of the 'Republican aspirants for the
Presidential noinination in 1860. Like Mr.
Micawber, he is "waiting for something to
turn up." The editor of the Journal is a
remarkably modest man, and having receiv
ed only eight votes out of one hundred and
thirty fcreState Senator, is somewhat back
ward in naming the man whom In most
strongly desires to see in the Presidential
chair. - We will generously help him out of
his difieulty, and name, as the Republican
candidate for President in LSO,
L. T.IIOM.A.S JEFFERSON EIGE,L)
We'give him all the advantage of the pres
tige of his great namesake.
Something Name
The Bedford Gazette says that when politi
cal parties are compelled to change their
names so frequently, hare we not got good
cause to suspect " something rotten" in their
" Denmark!" The thief, the forger, the mur.
derer, as he flees from place to place, to hide
himself from - the outraged law, changes his
name,, and enders to move unsuspected
throhgh the world by the aid of a hundred
. aliases. So with the Opposition. Tho are
so fearful of being detected in the hypocriti
cal trickery, that they assume a different title
every Sear. Therefore, let men who respect
themselves at on - Cii cut loose from such an
organization, and enlist under the broad folds
of thatflag which, since the days of Jefferson,
has been inscribed with no other name than
the eternal and ineffaceable watchword.

A New Argument for ihe Pacific
The discovery of gold in Frazier's river and
vicinity is likely to give a new impetus to
the feeling in favor of a railroad to the Pa
cific, now a matter of comparative indifference,
from the lack of any feasible plan or sufficient
motives for its construction. The rush of em
igration to that part of the country will in
vest the subject with new significance. Al
ready meetings have been held at St. Paul,
to organize an overland emigration thence to
the newly found gold mines. It will not be
long before large companies will cross the
continent to the Pacific coast by the head wa
ters of the Missouri river and through the
northern passes of the Rocky Mountains,
drawn by the resistless attraction of gold.
In speaking of the recent discoveries of
mineral wealth in our great western posses
sions, an intelligent Washington correspom,
dent of the• Philadelphia Ledger remarks that
it would seem to be the design of Providence
that the tract of country from the Ural Moun
tains, in Asia, down the American coast to
Lower California, should be settled, and that
the means of attracting to it population were
the deposits of gold. This precious deposit
seems to have been made, like that of coal,
in the very places where it was most likely to
become necessary and available for the wants
of civilization. The gold of California, Ore
gon, Washington, and of New Caledonia and
the Russian possessions, is to attrant, imme
gration from the over-peopled countries of
Asia and Europe, and in time a great North
American Pacific empire is thus to be built
up.
JULY 23. 1858
This Government is now taking step:, which
will tend to facilitate emigration from the At
lantic to the Pacific. European gold seekers
will cross the Atlantic in great numbers, to
seek, across the Isthmus of Central America,
a passage to the new El Dorado. We have
now but one passage, and that one too far
south and in a sickly climate—the Panama
Isthmus.
Tho Government seeks, first, to make the
emigrant route across the plains perfectly
safe from Indian hostilities. Much has been
done already towards this object. The Utah
army may recompense the country for its
cost, by the aid which it will lend to the open
ing of safe routes of travel to California and
to Pugetss Sound.
The hostile Indians on this route are to be
annihilated, unless they can be tamed into
subjection. This is the deliberate determina
tion of the Administration, and Lieut. Gen.
Scott is making every proper arrangement for
carrying this purpose into execution.
The wagon roads across the continent are
also in progress, and will afford facilities for
emigrant travel, and become the pioneers of
railroads.
The Government also contemplates the pur
chase of large portions of Mexican territory,
through which communication With the Pa
cific can be more readily made than through
any territory now belonging to the United
States.
Hunt .&, Miner have laid upon our table
the August number of this most popular of
Magazines. Its illustrations aro more than
usually excellent, and its literary matter most
interesting and agreeable. Hunt & Miner
have all the late publications of the day as
fast as they issue from the press.
The death of Gen. John A. Quitman seems
to create much regret all over the country,
and among men of all parties. His civil and
military career is sketched by the press gene
rally with much minuteness. From an ac
count of his services during the Mexican war
we copy the following :
General Qaitman's first demonstration against
the enemy was the storming of Fort Tanneria,
a strong work at the lower part of the town of
Monterey, which he attacked at the head of the
Tennessee regiment and the Mississippi rifles
on the 21st day of September, 1846, and captur
ed on the 231 He AU one of the first to enter
the city. One the death of General Harmer,
and the retirement of General Butler, the com
mand of the entire volunteer force fell to Gene
ral Qaitman. He was entrusted by General
Taylor with the command of the expedition
against Victoria, the capital of Tamaulipas ; as
saulted that place with seven regiments, and
took possession, Dec. 28, 1847. His forces were
afterward joined to the army under General
Scott. He was at the taking of Vera Cruz, and
continued In active service throughout the whole
of thatmemorable campaign. While on the
road, advancing with his command in support of
General Worth, who was about attacking the city
of Puebla, General Quitman received his com
mission from the President as major-general of
the army. He now outranked General Worth
but he pushdd forward to support him, and when
that gallant general entered the city, Quitman,
on arriving there, declined to exhibit his com
mission or to f.upersede in any way the captor
of Puebla,
During the .snissequent operations before the
city of Mexico he continued high in the confi
dence of General Scott, and was appointed by
him to posts of distinction en several ocasions.
At Chapaltepec, he led in person the assault on
the batteries -on the !south side, at the foot of
the hill, and afterwards continued his victorious
course along the Tacubaya causeway to the city.
In this gallant enterprise there was a generous
emulation between his division and that of Gen.
Worth, which was also advancing upon the city
along San Cosine causeway. During the early
part of the night the advance continued, the
head of both columns sending their flashes of
sulphurous light across the plain. One hour
and twenty minutes past midnight the Garito of
Belen was gained Quitman immediately mount
ed a portion cf the wall, and waving a rifle with
a handkerchief attached to it as a flag called upon
these around to mark 'he hour and note the po
sition of Worth's column, which was still some
hundreds of yards from the Garita of San Cosrue.
Here the battle lulled for a time, while the ex
hausted troops were ordered to lie down on their
arms for a few hours' repose. Sending an aid to
report to General Scott his position, Quitman, in
company with Major Beaureguard, of the engi
neers, proceeded to select pssition.a and throw
up batteries against the citadel, which was im
mediately in front of them. After some time
the aid de camp returned, and Quitman anxious
ly inquired : " What news front the head-quar
tern ?"
•‘ Every cue s, - ,ys that you will not be able to
held the rosit,vri " replied the sid-de-camp,
" But what did General Slott say?" haEtiiy
demanded Quitman. Did be Bend me any or
ders?"
" General Scott said, sir, that he would no
embarrass you with orders."
" I thank General Scott for this. Then,
gentlemen, wo will hold the position," said
Geneial Qailmr.n, "and go to the National Pal
ace."
And ho did hold it, and at seven o'clock of
that morning he hoisted the American flag on
the National Palace in the city. He was thus
the first to enter the the capital, as he had been
the first in Monterey.
General Scott appointed him Governor of the
and after a few weeks he received orders
from Washington to come home to confer with
the government as to the military occupation of
Mexico. Peace, however, was soon after con
cluded.
The. Buffalo papers announce the arriv - a
of George Law in that pity, and say "he
contemplate establishing a line of mag
nificent lake steamers!' The vast Law was an
aspirant for the Presidency in '56 and was very
justly looked upon as a lunatic. We infer
from the above that he hasn't got over it yet.

back Charge of /xtrievageince in- the
public Expendituresn—A fdigFacts.
This is ono of the fallacious expedients usual
ly employed, when a fdsiou of the conglomere
eted elements of opposition to the Democracy
attempt to deceive and mislead the people. This
ohs ge was made prominent among the roor
backs of 1840: yet as soon as the opposition of
thatyear acquired power, they proved their in
sincerity. Notwithstanding the gold spoon and
kindred humbugs, some of their first official acts
were the appropriation of some six thousand
dollars to procure additional furniture for the
President's house, bf some three thousand dol
lars to pay the expenses of General Harrison's
funeral, and of twenty-five thousand dollars as a
donation to Mrs. Harrison. It appears from the
official documents, that the aggregate expendi
tures of the General Government, (exclusive of
payments on amount of tho public debt,) for
the year 1841, being the first year of- opposition
rule, was $26,196,830, while , the aggregate ex
penditure for the same purpose, during the last
year of Mr. Van Buren's administration, of
which the complaint was made, was only $23,-
Z 27,772, more than three millions less than the
opposition expenditure.
Again, in the campaign of 1848 the same hum
bug was rung in the ears of the people with all
the variations and implifications, which political
mendacity could invent ; and also again the hy
pocrisy and deceptive artifices of the opposition
were exposee' by the public records. The first
year of the Taylor and Fillmore administration,
being the year 1849, the aggregate of expendi
tures, (exclusive of the payments on the public
debt,) was $57,631,667 ; while that of the last
year of Mr. Polk's administration, being the
year 1848, was only $42,811,970, being near fif
teen millions less. Tho official reports show
further, that while the aggregate of expendi
tures, (exclusive of the payments on the public
debt,) during the four years of the Taylor and
Fillmore administration, were $194,647,610,
the aggregate expenditures for the same purpose,
during the four years of Mr. Polk's administra
tion, were only $146,924,502, being between
fOrty-seven and forty-eight millions less than that
of the former. These are facts shown by the
public records, not to be •-'contradicted. After
this significant showing, it was hardly to be ex
pected that the opposition would have the hardi
hood to attempt again to humbug the people
with this old roorback.
When will the opposition to the Democracy
cease their efforts to humbug the people ? The
greatest extravagance end most extensive abuses
in the public, expenditures have always occurred
When the opponents of the Democracy had the
control of the General Government ; and that too,
just after their acquisition of power by long and
loud professions of retrenchment and reform.
The advgneeme.nt the country in territorial ex
tension and commercial interests has been this
exciudve policy of the Democratic party, aided
by No unfailing confidence and support of the
American people—but stesdily resisted by what
ever pat ty and all parties a...d factions opposed
to the Democracy. Oar exampled grog th as a
naticn is the greatest glory cf the country, and
the highest evidence of the Efficieeo,y of our in
stitutions for promoting the welfare and pros
perity of a free pree e re.sive people. This thin
outcry of exirevagano , in the dominant party, is
but a sinister medifestro , iu of that sentiment
of the opposition, which has always regarded the
material success of cur nation with an aversion
wholly incompatible with an intelligent love of
country. Tho government cf a great nation is
of course more costly than that of an insigoifi
cant one ; cud party which endeavors constantly
to make political capital out of an inevitable fact,
would be bast contented by freely donating to
other powers every foot of our soil acquired
by conquest and annexation, and by closing
our ports against the commerce of the whole
world.
But it seems there is no end to such humbugs.
It is now heralded forth in every Black Republi
car. Abolition sheet of the country, that Mr.
Buchanan has increased the cost of the Govern
ment from fifty-eight millions, to over eighty
three millions of dollars a year. This is a roor
back of the first water, and proved to be such by
the official record. It appears that the aggre
gate of the expenditure (exclusive of the pay
ments on the public debt) for the year 1856 was
$60,176,402 ; and that the aggregate of the ex
penditures for the year 1857 (exclusive of trust
funds and treasury notes refunded, and payments
on account of public debt) was between sixty
four and sixty-five millions. And according to
the estimates that have been published in the
Union and National Inteligencer, at Washington,
the anticipated expenditures for the cost of car
rying on the government for the year 1859, in
stead of reaching eighty-three millions of dol
lars, will not exceed $53,600.000.
That the expenditures for the support of the
government should gradually increase with the
progress of the country, is to be expected.—.
That progress is shown in the increase of our
population from some five milieus in 1800, to
near if not quite, twenty-seven millions at this
time ; an increase in the extent of the country
from less than one million of square miles, to
three millions three hundred and six thousand
eight hundred square miles ; an increase in the
income of the government, from some ten mil
lions at dollars in 1800, to over sixty-eight mil
lions five hundred thousand in 1857 ; and en in
arease',ln the exports of the country. from less
than seventy millions of dollars worth in 11820,
to over three hundred and twenty-six millions
of dollars worth in 1856. Besides all this, the
national expenditures must have been greatly
affected by the several territorial governments of
Oregon, Minnesota, Utah, New Mexico, Wash
ington, Kansas and Nebraska; as well as by the
vast increase in our commercial intercourse with
other nations.
[For the Pittsburgh ?doming Post.]
JAMES P. BARB, Eeq,—Dear Sir:—lf it will not
be occupying too much space in your valuable
journal, I would take it as a personal favor if you
would publish the following article on Minnesota
railroads which I find in the Pioneer and Democrat,
published at St. Paul. My object in making the re
quest is not only to ebow what progress is making in
the vast system of railroads rejected and under
contract in Minnesota, but also to assure my credi
tors that the property in which they aro interested
will bo greatly enhanced in value by the construc
tion of these roads as there is no place named in the
subjoined article, (except Winona,) in which I have
not large and valuable property; at St. Paul, Still
water, St. Anthony and vicinity, as also at Mankato,
t'arough which place, (as I find from a recent report
of the President and Chief Engineer,) the Minne
apolis Cedar Valley Road passes; also at La Cres
cent, at which town the Root River Valley Railroad
commences, and at Anako, which will be an impor•
tant point on the Minnesota and Pacific Railroad
now under contract. Please 0101M30 my troubling
you so much, but I wish to show my creditors that
they aro not losing anything by exorcising 40_ ittle
patience. Respectfully yours, Ise.,
MINNESOTA. RAILROADS.—The operations on the
Minnesota and Pacific Railroad are in course of vig
orous prosecution. Nearly two hundred men are
already at work abovet St. Anthony, upon an extent
of fourteen miles. Two miles of grade are already
completed. Today, we believe, the force will be
double, a new accession of men and implements hav
ing arrived. The work will be resumed be.tv,een St.
Paul and St. Anthony as soon as the settlement of
some questions affecting the right of way permit the
company to fix the final location of the road. Mr.
Chamberlain's co • tract extends to the completion, in
everything except rolling stock, of fifty miles of road
from Stillwater and up the East bank of the lltiissis-
sippi.
In the meantime, the work on the Transit Rail
road id being carried on with energy under the super
intendence of Col. Do Graff, who is the contractor
for that road. The Rochester Democrat says:
" The grading of the first ten miles of this road
west from Winona, is being rapidly pushed forward.
As Last as the lino is located and profiled, the work
will be sub-let by Col. Do Graff, and a largo force of
hands put upon it.
" Dr. Bingham, of Winona, was in our town on
Tuesday last, and informed us that he would have a
sub-contract for grading the road from a point twenty
miles east of Rochester to within ten miles of this
place, and that he would commence work upon it
with a large number of hands within four or five
weeks. CoL De Graff now has over ono thousand
bands hired, and will pat them to work as fast as
the engineers complete the necessary surveys."
Col. De Graff, we believe, has contracted to have
the Transit road completed from Winona to Roches
ter by the first of August, 1859.
The Root River Railroad CentracL we are in
formed, has also been let to Mr. Chamberlain, and
operations were to have been commenced thereon at
La Crescent on July Ist.
The last number of the Hokah Chief says " that
the contract for building the Southern Minnesota
Railroad has been let to Mr. Selah Chamberlain, and
that the work will commence on the Root River line
as soon as surveys can be made and the right of way
obtained. The name of the contractor is a sufficient
guarantee that the building of the road will bp vigor
ously prosecuted. We are not informed as the point
of commencement in this county, thought it will
soon be made known. A corps of engineers are ex
pected here early next week, and we shall probably
be able to give ruore definite information in our next
issue."

Hold On.
Hold on to your tongue when you are just
ready to swear, lie, speak harshly, or Bay any
improper word. Hold on to your hand when
you are about to strike, pinch, scratch, steal, or
do any disobedient or improper act. Hold on to
your foot when you are on the point of kicking,
running away from duty, or pursuing the path
of error, shame, or crime. Hold on to your
tempter when you are angry, excited, or impos
ed upon, or other are angry about you. Hold
on to rur heart when evil associates seek your
company and invite you to join them in their
games, mirth and revelry. Hold on to your
good name at all times, for it is more valuable
to you than gold, high place, or fashionable at
tire. Hold on to truth, for it will serve you well
and do you good through all eternity. Holden
to your virtue, it is qbovo price to you in all
times and places. Hold on to your good char
acter, for it is, and ever will be, your best
wealth.
