TUE PENNSYLVANIA CZN-
TRAL RAXLROAD.
From the Now Orleans Bulletin of Jan. 28, 1847.
Among all the works of internal im
provement that have been made or pro
jected at the North, for the purpose of
attracting the commerce of the West,
there is none more calculated to injure
New Orleans and to benefit the project
ors, than the Pennsylvania Central Rail•
road.
This work is to be a continuous Rail
road, connecting Philadelphia and Pitts
burg, and with the ulterior object of con ,
,
tinning it on to Cincinnati. The sub
scription we see is complete, and the
. work will now go ahead promptly and
rapidly. In the discussions that have
:, been had on the subject in Philadelphia,
we observe great stress is laid upon the
probable quantity of travel over the road
—this is of high importance to the stock
, holders, and will no doubt add greatly to
their profits, but is•a matter of indiffer
ence, to us in New Orleans—it is the
? irade that it will divert from us, that we
are to look to, and which should attract
~ I our attention.
We have heretofore been sleeping, in
New Orleans, on the subject of the
Western trade—we are still sleeping, and
'0 in fancied security, are dreaming that
14 our natural advantages are such, that
, nothing can divert the trade from this
1 city—that God Almighty has done eve
i rything for us, and that we need not
make any exertion for ourselves—it is a
great, and if persevered in, will prove a
fatal error, and we shall waken up some
i of these mornings and find the whole of
that immense and rich commerce is flow
ing almost en masse, over the mountain,
direct to the Atlantic cities.
The natural advantages of New Or
leans, are undoubtedly great, and par
:t icularly in the free navigation of the
Mississippi, and its tributaries, unburth
ened with tolls, to which the artificial
.:, works, will always be subject ; but then,
these advantages are not altogether un
incumbered—the navigation of the Ohio,
,i. is interrupted by ice, in winter, and low
, , water in summer. The produce is sub
ject to double freights, Insurance and
shipping charges, if to be sent Coast
wise from New Orleans, and increased
freight above the rates from the Atlantic
ports, if destined for Europe.
We have already seen the immense
diversion which the New York and Penn
sylvania canals have made from the com
merce which legitimately belongs to N.
Orleans—a diversion which is annually
increasing and extending its sphere of
operations. Cotton loaded boats from
the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers,
and tobacco and flour laden ones from
St. Louis, are already to be scan stem
ming the current of the
Ohio,
with car
goes destined for New York, by the Ohio
canal and Lake route, or for Philadel
phia, by the great Pennsylvania canal.
' . The lakes and canals, however, are fro
•lzen in winter—frozen earlier and later
Ethan the river, which prevents a large
''additional quantity of produce from
*oink, by these routes, and causes it to
... come to New Orleans, during the winter,
(if an open one, like the present,) or by
the early spring rise. Philadelphia,
however, has determined to overcome
' this disadvantage, by the construction of
.„, a railroad that will, at all seasons, afford
it.?.,ertain and cheap conveyance to her
`store houses of the varied productions
of the teeming West.
The produce that accumulates on the
upper portions of the Ohio, during the
low waters of the summer and autumn,
is shipped to New Orleans by the first
fall rise, and that which collects during
the winter comes down on the opening
of the navigation in the spring; but
whilst our intercourse is thus suspended
from the above causes, Philadelphia, by
this new road, will be drawing the aeon
' initiation to her own warehouses. Even
if this road was to terminate at Pitts
burg, the injury to us will be great, but
it will, as a matter of course, be extend
!ed to Cincinnati, and no doubt in a few
years be continued through Indiava and
Illinois to St. Louis—each mile it is ex
tended, renders it more desirable and
advantageous for every section of coun
try to be connected with it—when once
it reaches Pittsburg, Cincinnati will, of
course, lose no time in thus placing her
self in direct communication w' the
Atlantic.
One among other obvious result of a
railroad from Cincinnati to Philadel
phia, would be to deprive New Orleans
of nearly the whole of the immense
park and lard trade, for with this rail
road existing, the hogs, after being kill
ed and dressed in Cincinnati, will in
• that state be placed in cars, and in 36
f or 48 hours will be in Philadelphia,
where they can be cured at the same ex
yense, and are at market by the land
route of about 300 miles, instead of a
( double voyage by water of 3000 miles,
saving double freights, double insurance
and charges—the transportation is also
saved on the barrel, salt and brine, the
'weight of which is at least one half that
of the meat—the article is at market in
November and December, instead of
„
' lApril or May, whether it is intended for
home consumption in the Atlantic ports
—to which the largest portion of the
pork is shipped from New Orleans—or
in foreign markets.
The freight by this railroad route
from Cincinnati, would not exceed half
a cent. per pound, which (as it is paid
only on the actual weight of the meat)
would be only one dollar per barrel, and
: 1 the- whole cost of delivering it there,
would be much less than one-half at
which it could be done via N. Orleans.
We received last season in New Or
leans, 47,303 hogsheads ; 369,601 brls.,
and 10,233,452 pounds in bulk of Pork ;
and 107,639 barrels, and 834,969 kegs
of Lard ; and the loss of even one-half
of this item of Pork in the trade of the
city, would be no trifling matter.
Though we have cited Pork (as being
a prominent article of produce in the
commerce of New Orleans) to show the
injurious effects from the exertions that
are making to divert the trade of the
West frotn our city, they will have a
like effect on the other leading articles,
and will also greatly injure us in the
supplies which we furnish to the West.
This movement on the part of Philadel
phia, is a master stroke of policy, for
it gives her a double hold on the trade,
by both canal and railroad, keeping up
a constant intercourse •at alt seasons,
and under all circumstances, and afford
ing her great advantages over all her ,
neighboring cities—we consider it the
most important measure which that city
has ever adopted, to promote her per
manent prosperity, and we have called
attention to it, that our citizens may be
aware of what is doing elsewhere, cal
culated to affect the interests of New
Orleans so injuriously, and that they
may be prepared to suggest and adopt
some measures of counteracting effect.
We should recollect that it is not only
one city, but that all the great commer
cial emporiums on the Atlantic are en
gaged in this struggle; and whilst they
are all thus striving in zealous rivalry
with each other, they are in fact unitedly
working against New Orleans, as it is
the natural and legitimate commerce of
this city which they are each separately
endeavoring to appropriate to themselves.
Modern Democracy
Mr. Westcott, a Democratic Senator
from Florida, in the course of a speech
upon the resolution to exclude Ritchie
from the floor of the Senate, said that
since he had been here he had been
rather puzzled to know what was demo
cracy. He had followed some of the
great lights of the Democratic party,
Mr. Calhoun, Mr. Benton and others,
but he found it impossible to follow all
of them at the same time, as they went
different ways.
Sir, said Mr. W., in a loud and em
phatic manner, and amidst perfect si
fence, 'what is modern democracy?' At
this day, and under this administration,
it is nothing more than a party combina
tion to secure the loaves and fishes—THE
SPOILS OF OFFICE! [Great sensa
tion.] Sir, the people of the U. States
have no idea of the gross, feculent, fes
tering corruption that exists here; they
have no conception of it. [lncreased
sensation and close attention.[Sir, if the
people of the United States suppose there
was a twentieth part of the ROTTENNESS
and CORRUPTION that is to be found here
in this city of Washington, they would
assemble here, and pitch the whole go
vernment, the President, Heads of De
partments,_both Houses of Coungres, all
into the Potomac, and set up a better,
and they would do right !
SNIETIIING ROTTEN IN DENMARK. " -
The Washington correspondent of the
Buffalo Express states that a call for in
formation will be made on the Secretary
of the TreaSury, relative to the deposit
of some $45,000 of the public money
in the Middletown Bank in Pennsylva
nia. The item has stood for a long
time, without change, in the monthly
Financial statement. As there are no
public receipts nor expenditures in Mid
dletown, curiosity is naturally enough
-excited, as to the object of depositing
this sum there. The writer insinuates
that this money was deposited, and that
the Bank upon it advanced money to
purchase the Executive Organ from Blair
& Rives, of the Old Globe! It is also
insinuated that Mr. Polk, as well as Mr.
Walker, had some knowledge of the
transaction. Why is this sum permit
ted to remain in a village bank for two
years, without interest, when the Gov
ernment is borrowing money, issuing
Treasury notes, and proposing to tax
the poor man's necessaries of life'!
The New Regiments,
A Washington correspondent of the
N. Y. Herald says:
" I have been informed that the War
Department will accept seven companies
from New York and three from N. Jer
sey, making one regiment for these two
States. From Rhode Island one compa
ny, Maine three, Now Hampshire two,
Connectibut two, and Vermont two, or
one regiment from New England. From
Maryland four companies, and Delaware
one. It is said that Pennsylvania and
Ohio will each furnish a regiment; and
that North Carolina, South Carolina and
Virginia, conjointly, will furnish one.
Three companies will be accepted from
Illinois. The mounted regiment will
probably be raised in Tennessee and
Kentucky. I have not been able to as
certain the proportion from other States.
Nominations to fill offices are expected
to be sent in on Monday."
Mr. Polk undoubtedly exhibits
the most wonderful diplomatic talent
when he asks Congress for an appropri
ation of $2,000,000 to bribe Mexico to
pay the demands of our citizens upon
her for at least double that amount. Does
our wise President think that with two
millions he can bribe Mexico to pay four
millions 4

that the duties ceased entirely. The
trade of that year stood as follows:

By an inspection of these tables, will
be seen immediately the variations of an
alternate full and short number of pounds
consumed in range of the years given,
while the prices were more uniform, as
the short supply enhanced the prices.
It is not yet known what rate of duty
it is proposed to lay upon these staples,
but whether 15 or 20 per cent., it can be
easily calculated.—U. S. Gazette.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 18, 1847.
Havana dates to the 6th inst. have
been received at Charleston, and furnish
later intelligence from Mexico, received
by the arrival of the packet from Vera
Cruz. Santa Anna still remained at
San Luis with a force•of 22,000 men.
Gen. Taylor, it is stated, had left his re- ,
cent position, and had passed Victoria
with 6,000 men. He was supposed to
be on his march to Tampico. The cler
gy of Mexico had refused to contribute
the eight millions to be raised by them,
and were much excited against Santa
Anna, endeavoring to get up a pronunci
amento against him.
The new Cabinet it was reported, had
all resigned. Great jealousies existed
between the various Generals, and much
confusion and disorganization prevailed.
Vera Cruz was garrisoned with only
3,000 troops, and they were greatly dis-1
pirited, expecting an attack from the
Americans. On the 2d of February,
there were but 1,000 men in the Castle,
and they were badly supplied with pro
visions. The best informed thought
that their resistance would by very fee
ble. A number of vessels had run the
blockade along the Mexican coast and
landed valuable cargoes at the various
ports. One large French ship, richly
freighted, had been captured, after be
ing once warned off.

Indian Difficulties.
The St. Louis Republican of the 6th
inst., contains a letter from the western
portion of that State, from which we
make the following extract, showing
that difficulty will arise there, if the lo
cal authorities can effect it. It will be
remembered that the Indians referred
to, are the Sacs and Foxes, who, with
Black Hawk, gave so much trouble in
the fall of 1832:
" Gen. Thompson Ward, commander
of 'the 15th div. Missouri militia, near
Lower Lake, Platte county,' following
the example of his Locofoco compeers,
has determined to get up a war on his
own responsibility. It seems, from the
explanation of the editor of the Platte
(Mo.) Argus, that a band of Fox Indians
are roaming at large in the counties of
Gentry and Harrison, committing dep
redations on the property of citizens,
and frequently insulting and terrifying
women and children, being excited there
to from the effects of liquor, which is
furnished them by whiskey-traders who
follow in their wake.
" We should like to know where this
militia general gets his authority to
commence such acts of hostility against
these Indians, or any body elsel Would
it not be quite as well for the General
to employ himself in finding out and
punishing the scoundrels who sell whis
key to the Indians, thereby causing
them to insult the women and children,
instead of taking upon himself to call
out the militia, and punish the Indians.
Additional Revenue Bill,
The Committee of Ways and Means
of the House of Representatives, through
its chairman, Mr. McKay, reported, on
Wednesday, a bill to increase the reve
nue. If passed, it will take immediate
circa; and proposes to increase the reve
nue by laying the following additional
duties on imports:
On TEA and COFFEE, which are
now free, a duty of twenty per cent.
An additional duty of ten per cent. on
loaf and other refined sugar ; coal ; bar
iron made by rolling ; pig iron : round
iron, as brazier's rods, 3.l6ths to 10-
16ths of an inch diameter, inclusive ;
nail -and spike rods, slit, rolled, or ham
mered ; sheet Iron (except taggersd) ;
hoop iron ; band or scroll iron ; casement
rods, slit, rolled or hammered ; wood
screws (of iron); spikes, cut or.wrought;
and white and red lead,
An additional duty of five per cent.
on all manufactures of cotton, if dyed,
colored, printed, or stained, exceeding
in vslue thirty cents the square yard ;
and on manufactures of cotton, not
dyed, coloied, printed or stained, ex
ceeding in value twenty cents the square
yard.
The above duties to cease two years
after the• ratification of a treaty with
Mexico, but to be collected on all goods
imported prior to the expiration of said
two years. .
Value,
The bill further proposes that all lands
belonging to the United States, which
have been in market, and subject to en
try not less than ten years, nor over fif
teen, may be entered at one dollar per
acre; in market fifteen years, and not
over twenty-five years, seventy-five cts.;
over twenty-five years, at fifty cents ; to
take effect May 1, 1847, and continue
during the war, and six months there
after.
The fate of this bill, in its present
shape, appears to the National Intelli
gencer (to which we are indebted for
the above digest) to be exceedingly
doubtful.
Latest froiii Tampico.
The schooner Rob Roy arrived on the
6th inst. at New Orleans from Tampico,
having left on the 28th ult. Capt. Hark
ness stated that four days previous to
his sailing, the master of the U. S.
steamer Cincinnati, arrived at Tampico,
having lost his vessel in a tremendous
storm on the coast of Mexico. During
the gale the steamer Fashion was seen
a few miles distant, and serious fears
were entertained for her safety, she
having not arrived when the Rob Roy
sailed. It was supposed that Gen. Scott
was on board the Fashion at the time.
This, however, was not - the case, as re
cent advices from the Brazos say that
Gen. Scott was still at that post, concen
trating the troops, as was supposed, for
Tampico. The Rob Roy also reported,
that on the 28th there arrived at Tam
pico one barque, one brig, and three
schooners with troops. The brig was
reported to be from Tampa Bay, had
been out thirty days, and was short of
water. In coming out of Tampico, two
brigs with troops were seen going in.

with a violent pain in toy breast, so much so that
I could hardly lay in bed at night. Cough attended.
followed by emaciation and other decided symp ,
toms of consumption. I applied to several eminent
physicians, and took a great deal of medicine with. ,
out any relief whatever. I was advised to try Dr.
Davis's Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry and
Tar, of which I took two bottles, which entirely re
lieved me of my complaint; therefore I ran with
confidence recommend tt to all who are in a like
rnuniier afflicted, as a moat valuable Medicine.

SIX YEARS' EXPERIENCE has prov
ed that, for the cure of coughs, colds,
consumptions asthma, spitting of blood,
pain and oppression of the breast, there
is nothing equal to Hance's Compound
Syrup of Horehound,
This medicine has ticiiv been in use
for si* years, during which time there
has been a constant demand for it, and
its popularity, instead of declining, has
beeen always on the inerease.
During this time many new medicines
have sprung up for the cure of the above
corriplalnt,s, some of which lasted only a
few months, and others not as long; but
Hance's Syrup has readily gone on gain
ing favor with all classes of society, un
til it has now becatne identified by many
families as a
REGULAR FAMILY MEDICINE.
To. those who hdve never used the
Compound Syrup of Horehound,- this no•
tice is particularly directed to, as those
who have once ei per ien ced its peculiar
ly happy effects, any praise of its merits
would be superfluous. •

Read the following wonderful cure of
dyspepsia!
This is to certify that my wife was
afflicted with the Dyspepsia for 12 years,
and tried both advertised medicines and
Thomsonian, but without effect ; and my
self attacked with blindness, and my head
otherwise affected from hard drinking, so
that I was apprehensive of fits ; and see
ing HANCE'S SARSAPARILLA PILLS
advertised, I went and got a box of them ;
which, to my astonishment, effected a
cure of me and my Wife both. I think
them without a rival before the public.
