At the ine^,ting of the Directors of the
Pittshurgh. Pert Wayne and . Chicago. Rail
road Company held yesterday, George W.
Cass, Esq., who has held the position of
President of the company since the con
solidation in July, 1556, resigned his office
which he has for some time past contem.
plated. Thd Board then elected unani
mously J. Edgar Thomson, Esq., as Presi

We understand that Mr. Thomson will
take charge of the business of the road as
soon as the necessary arrangements can be
made to do so
lc UNDER. WiliCfl KING
We are at . - .loss to understand the position
in the field of politics which the editor of the
Commercial Journal wishes to occupy. Some
of his recent articles are to say the last "very
queer," and his course altogether, somewhat
unusual. The - J ournal omits the customary
publication of either the State or county
ticket of the party to which it professedly
`belongs; it favors none of the Presidential
aspirants of its party, and in its article in
Friday's issue upon the tariff policy, in en
dorsing Col. Foster, it " regrets to say that the
late Harrisburg Convention has again endors -
ed the abstract sentiments " of Henry Clay
upon the Tariff. In politics, the Journal is
"neither flesh, fish, nor good red herring."
The kind of endorsement which the Jour
nal gives Col. Foster is in ou'r opinion more
than the Col. bargained for. The resolution
of the Harrisburg. Convention was an ex
ceedingly moderate one, upon which Penn
sylvanians at least, no matter what may be
their polities, will not greatly differ. Vol.
Foster, we presume, will be willing to stand
upon it, and will not thank the Igurnal for
making him "much more decidedly for pro.
tection than the present platform."
We look upon Col Foster as being the
loader of the Republican party in this county,
and - be owes it to his position to speak out
and let the people know on what platform he
does stand.
Among the people of Pennsylvania there is
little - difference of opinion upon the Tariff
question. It is shown that a necessity exists
for a, re-adjustment of the present rates in
the want of an increased revenue, and when
this shall come to be done, as we have.no doubt
it will be at the-next session of Congress, the
Pennsylvania delegation should stand togeth
er es one man anthclaim that in.the adjust
ment, such discriminations shall be mado in
favor of Pennsylvania interests as we have a
right to, receive under a fair division of bene
fits to bo derived therefrom.
IRO 1:4 BUILDINGS.
It is but few years since Mr. Bogardus con
struted the first iron building in New York
City, and like most improvements out of the
common course, it was at the time cried
down, and its utter-failure predicted. In
deed, men who pretended to some knowledge
of science, decided that it would be crushed
by its own weight, and some nervous individ
uals who resided near it moved their locationp.
But it was a splendid triumph, and although
but some ten years have passed, iron is now
pronounced to be the best material, which it
possible to use in the construction of build
ings. Not only is it stable and durable, but
the highest degree of ardhitectural ornament
'is arrived at in its use. Fluted columns and
corinthian capitals, equal in beauty to the
classic models, can now be 'constructed at
comparatively cheap cost. The business of
manufacturing iron fronts is already a large
one, and in Pennsylvania, and especiallyin
our own city; mast largely increase, In the
construction of the Allegheny Bank Block,
Dispatch Building, and other Fifth street
structures, a fair opportunity is to be given of
showing the excellence, beauty, and economy,
of iron building material, All the objections
which were at first urged against its use for
this purpose have been completely exploded by
the tests of both science and practical expe
rience. The business of manufacturing iron
for building will one day, be an immense
source of wealth to our city.
The Atlautle Cadle.
Tho New York Times publishes a letter from
Cyrus W. Field, Esq., to the directors of the
Atlantic Telegraph Company in Lonthin, giv
jog a daily journal of operations on hoard
the Niagara, together with his views Els' to the
failure of the enlerprise. From exmination
of the logs of the Cunard steamers for a
_ number of voyages in the month of June,
July and August, Mr. Field comes to the
conclusion that July Is the best month to
make the experiment, there being only one
day of gales in twenty:five in that month,
while in June there is ono in seven, and in
August one in nine. 'There is ample cable
left on the .:..iagaral'for 'another oxperinet,
though until the Agamemnon should be heard
from it was impossible to say whether it
would be made. The machinery on board
the Niagara worked in the moat perfect man
ner.
Railroad Irjnaotlon.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad have
been cited by writ from one of the Virginia
courts to appear early in August and show
cause why an irjunetion should not be issued
by Wheeling, restraining al.:. Baltimore and
Ohio Road from either paying out any more
of its funds in behalf of the North Western
Road, or from working that line.
The chief reason of this procedure on the
part of Wheeling, we understand from the
Baltimore , Sun, rests upon the assumption
that bad it nat been for the fact that the Bal.
ilmore" and Ohio road had engaged to finish
aid is working the Northwestern (Va.) road
iaar a contract, which they deem illegal,
She city of Wheelsng and all other stockhold•
ilts would have continued to receive cash div
idends
e from the former road.
MMEI!IM2M!
John "fl , Road..l.lls Position Defined.
In commending :.f.fte nominn,tien of John
M. Read, the GermOtown Telegraph says
that " the views on i)nblio questions he now
holds have always been entertained by him ;
arid if his party has any measures gr ne
astray, or ran after gods, his faith has re
mained unshaken and his fidelity unques
tioned." In commenting upon the editor of
Harrisburg Patriot and Union, says that as
the editor of the Telegraph was an original
Read man, we presume he speaks by the
book. Before Mr. Read strayed into the
Republican camp he was a Democrat, holding
fast to all the doctrines of the Democratic
party. Upon the single question of the best
'tanner of dealing with slavery in the Terri
tories, he differed ; and for that cause alone
formed his present political connection.
Wherein Republicanism 'differed from Democ
racy he became a Republican, but in all
points where the Democratic creed differed
from its other opponents he adhered to that
creed. This is the only conclusion that can
be drawn from the Telegraph's exposition of
Mr. Reads position, and we belie've it to be a
correct ono. On-the tariff, and all the guess
tions which formerly divided the Democratic
from the Whig parties, he holds fast to the
opinions " always been entertained by him''
—that is, to Democratic opinions
accounts for the exceedingly mild tariff res
olutions passed'Thy the Convention tha
nominated Mr. Read. It doubtless exelud
ed the idea of protection so as to acoom
modate Mr. Read with a platform upon which
he could stand without sacrificing any of the
opinions that havo " always been entertained
by him."
Of course John M. Read has no sympathy
with the " American" wing of his supporters.
As a Democrat, he was never known to em
brace Know Nothing doctrines, and we have
not heard -of his becoming a convert since he
joined the Republicans. In this respect the
platform has been nicely adapted to the
views that "have always been entertained by
him." The dose of "Americanism" admin-
istered to him is decidedly infinitesimal. He
is at liberty to oppose the slightest change in
the naturalization laws, as well as other cher
ished' doctrines of " Americanism," if he only
agrees to condemn the landing of foreign pau
pers and criminals upon our shores. As this
does not ench upon his ancient faith, we
have doubt Mr. Read assents to it without
the slightest mental reservation. He does not
differ with the Democratic party in favor of
" Americanism."
EL , ' Harker House, Blairsville
Col. Robert Evans, of Lancaster County,
Pa., flee purchased from B. D. Marker, Esq.,
the fine property in Blairsville known as the
Marker House, for the sum of $13,575. For
many years, under Mr. Marker and others,
this has been one of the most popular hotels
in Western Pennsylvania. Situated in the
midst of s thriving and wealthy community,
upon the Indiana Branch of the Pennsylva
nia Railroad, it enjoys a large amount of
traveling custom, and in Col. Evans' • charge,
who fully understands the art of pleasing the
public, its popularity and business must con*
tinue and increase.
THE New York limes admits "that any
effort on - the part of the opponents of the Na
tional Administration to make a permanent
political organization on the basis of a plat
form of measures, must prove fatal." What
are the "measures of the Opposition ?" Does
any body know ?

versity took place on Wednesday last. The

A meeting of the railroad officials was to be
held at Cleveland on Wednesday, and another
effort made to settle the quarrel with the New
York and Erie. It is understood, says the
New York Tribune, that the Erie managers
will not abandon their present position until
the Central road will consent to a fair divi
sion of the first-class passenger earnings. It
is a question for the Central to settle Whether
a $5 fare is more profitable than a $9 fare,
with a subsidy of $250,000 or $300,000 per
annum to the Erie road. That's stating the
case pretty plainly, and looks very much like
a desperate " stand and deliver " proceeding
on the part of the Erie. Any advantage
which one road has over another, either in
its route, termini, or ether feature, will, on
this principle, be rendered entirely nugatory
at the instance of a less fortunate rival.
Mrs. Blonnt , s Pranks when She Was a
Y 00331; Lady.
Bow COL. BLOUNT FELL IN WITH ILEU.
Miss Blount is a "chip of the old block."
Her mother Mrs. Emily J. Blount, nee James,
was in girlhood, sent from Alabama to a semi
nary at New Haven, then under the care of Prof
E. A. Andrew. There sho was a wild dare-devil,
il, the leader cf all mischievous or romantic in
trignes; smuggling cards, liquors, and billets
into the seminary; exchanging notes for herself
or others, oven under the nose of - the secom
panying <kerma, with lovers whom she met
when permitted to go out. Many wild pranks
of her's in New Haven were the talk of all the
city. A lady, resident of Cleveland, might nar
rate from her recollection the " adventures of
Em. James at boarding school," enough to make
quite a brochure of yellow covered literature ;
how the heroine, under the inspiration of punch,
once stood upon a pedestal in broad day, as a
living statue duly placed and draped, in front of
a aonfectionery in Church street—how they kept
Christmas holiday in their chambers upon a pro
fusion of egg nog, the materials of which was
smuggled into the seminary, and mixed into po
tent nog by Miss J.,—how once on a winter's
day, when sleighing was lively, she with two or
three companions marched down the middle of
Chapel street to Wooster Square, where the sem
inary was located, shouting and singing in Bac
chante style, compelling the sleighs to tura out
right and left and give them way—how tropi
cal fruits innocently bought by the "daughter of
the south," were often found to be of something,
more than tropical richness of pulp and flavor,
yielding ardent epistles from ardent young men,
&e. To one so defiant alike of authority, pro
priety, and vigilant restraint, the end could only
be expulsion, and she was expelled. Until her
mother should arrive from the South to take
charge of her; she was placed in the family of a
highly respectable gentleman of New Haven.
To the affiction, one knows not how many,
sighing young gentleman in the pin-feather
state of existence, her mother removed her to
Alabama. Oae, now the grave and staid head
of a family in Now Eagland, was almost in a,
phreuzy of grief at the inevitable separation,
as perhaps were half a dozen others who, like
him, had exchanged with the enchantress vows'
of eternal affection and fidelity.
Seen after her return to Alabama, Meant, the
present husband, met her and was captivated.
Miss 3 . . was taken to her maternal home in Clark
cr Monree county, Ala., where, for someereason,
Blount's visits wers forbidden. His ambition,
however, as might be expected in such castle,
proved but an airy obstacle to interviews. To
prevent these the young lady was finally placed
in a nunnery near Mobile, in the striciedt re
straint and surveillance of the saintly sisterhbod.
Hence, in a short time, she escaped, eloped, and
was married to Blount.
—Since the above was in type, we have
noticed a letter from Mr. Blount in the New
York papers, in which he pronounces the
above a "mendacious fabrication founded on
the smallest possible amount of fact."
LIABILITIES OF TELEGRAPH COMPABIES.—The
Court of Appeals has affirmed the decision of
Chancellor Logan in the telegraph ease. The
history of the case is briefly this: Mr. A. Camp
made an offer by telegraph to a party in Cincin
nati for a lot of whisky at a specified ,sum. In
tic transmission of the dispatch over the wires,
a mistake of a cent was made by increasing
the price offered for it by Camp, and the party
at Cincinnati sold it. The whisky was shipped
here and Camp discovered the mistake. He
thereupon brought suit against the Telegraph
Company for the difference. The company in .
their answer plead the printed terms and ()au
ditions which head their messages, to the
effect that the company do not hold themselves
responsible for mistakes in the transmission of
messages unless the same are repeated, for which
one half of thie original price is charged. The
courts sustained this plea.
Louisville Journal, lOth.
The Report of a committee appointed by the last
Legislature, which has just been published; to en
quire into the affairs of the several new banking
corporations located in the interior of our Stabo,
shows some astonishing specimens of finanoiering.
In the ease of the Tioga County Bank, it is in evi
dence, that out of the 1069 shares subscribed, 1040
had been token in a single day by Wells D. Wal
bridge, Edward E. Thayer, and J. Porter Brawley.
Thayer is a financier of Buffalo, where he is the head
and centre of large money operations, and his dis
counts in the Tioga Bank amount to $20,685, all of
which was for the benefit of parties at Buffalo. The
Report shows that the discounts now amount to
$89,066,33, nearly all of which went to Buffalo, and
upon all the notes appear the names of Thayer and
Walbridge, either as drawers or endorsers.
The same Buffalo speculators appear when the new
Bank of Crawford county goes into oporaton. In
this institution 1,534 shares of stock were subscribed.
The Buffalo parties managed to obtain 1,210 of these,
and pay for them in notes of the Tioga County Bank.
This Bank has a circulation of $34,055 against 2,-
796,84 in gold and silver, and its discounts reach
$127,917,52, of which $63,800 has been to parties
out of the State. The fact that both thoso Banks
were used by the same mon fcr the same purpose, is
demonstrated by the fact that the Teller of the Craw
ford County Bank states that he and the President
ordered at the same time the engraving of the plates
for both this and the Tioga County Bank, and the
evidence also shows that the same parties operated
together in both institutions.
The Shamokin Bank was also bought up by the
Thayer's, they taking 1530 shares out of the 1640
subscribed. For this stock $28,000 was paid in notes
of the Tioga and Crawford Counties Banks', thus
linking the whole together in one bond of fraud and
rascality. The circulation of this Shamokin Bank
amounts to - $26,450, while the cash is only 82,372,65.
Akita $2OOO of the bills of this Bank were also used
to pay the first instalment of a subtcription to the
M'Kean County Bank, which is aide a tender to this
batch of bogus Banks.
The Bank at Phocenixville TM also seized hold of
by the same gang, of Buffalo speculators, they having
secured 1200 shares of the stock,"but an organisation
of the institution did not take place. For tho pay'.
meat of this subscription Tioi,a notes wore offered,
but this game was played out, and on investigation
the subscription was declared null and void, and the
whole matter ended. The same parties that figured
in all the other Banks were conspicuous at Phmntx.
vine, and the same dishonest scheme was at
.the
bottom of all their actions.
COMMISSIO3 OF' LIINAOT IN ENGLAND.—The
English papers contain a long report of an in
vestigation which occupied nine days, in regard
to the sanity of one of the wealthiest brewers in
London, Sir Henry Mieux.- Some curious reve
lations have been made. The main object hob
been to upset a codicil which gives unrestricted-.
ly property to the amount of $3,600,000 to his
young wife only twenty-one years of age, a
daughter of Lord and Lady Ernst Bruce, but it
has not succeeded, i'or the jury contented them
selves by finding Sir Herity of unsound mind
but declined to say when ho became insane.—
The question therefore is left a mooted aiot
with respect to the codicil, and t, if it
rests thus until the'death of Sir Henry, a violent
litigation will ensue as to the- real inheritor of
the vast property.-

A FIGHT BETWEEN' TWO STEAMBOAT CAPTAINS.
—Yesterday afternoon, a large crowd was col.
looted upon the landing in consequence of a diffi
culty between Capt. Ford, of the steather Prima
Donna, end Capt. Shank, of the steamer Lehigh,
which finally led to a fight. • It seems that the
Lehigh had shipped a lot of freight fore St. Louis,
which Cant. Ford claimed to have contracted
for, and who all'ged that Capt. Shank got it
from him by underbidding. F i ord went to the
gangway of the Lehigh and accused Shank of
the offense, which he denied. The lie passed,
followed by personal abuie, when Shank aimed
a blow at Ford, and a general fight between the
two followed. Capt. Ford gat one of the fingers
of Capt. Shank in his month, and bit it very
Severely. Ford received Some injury from blows
on the cheek, when the parties were separated.--
