ROES. FIRST WEEK.
•
!: ,
The following message from the Governor '
~is transmitted to the two Houses on Tuesday
ast.—As the subject sugggested in the mes
mage is one of general interest, we lay it before
our readers : ,
ITo the Senate and House of Representatives
of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
GICNTLEMEN :-I herewith transmit a list of
lithe officers of the United States Army, natives
ef Pennsylvania, who distingsished themselves
in the late war with Mexico, with the Regi- ,
went or corps to which they were attached,
land the date of their Brevet rang.
It is believed that other States have taken hon- 1
orable notices of their officers in the regular ar
my, who risked their lives and nobly maintain
ed the national honor in the recent licontest with
Mexico and their example should remind us that
something is due to the brave and heroic officers
yet living, who in the sanguinary battles of the
late war, signalized themselves by meritorious
conduct, and proudly sustained the just renown
of our beloved Commonwealth.

WOMEN AND THE GOLD REGION.
A lady writes from San Francisco to her
fi lend in Massachusetts, as follows :
4 , The demand for marriageable wo
men seems to be as great as for goods.
This is the only country in the world
where women are properly appreci
ated. The proportion of males in the
territory is five to one of females, and
the labor of females is as much needed
in cooking, &c., at the gold region, as
the male•. There have been more mar
riages the last few months than in ten
years previous, in this country.—The
squaws, before they will go the re
gion, make efforts to get white husbands,
which they soon obtain in the present
state of affairs. Father Manaque, the
Catholic Priest, has informed me that
he married the last month 110 white
men to squaws. The consequence is,
that the poor Indians will soon be left
without any class of females from which
they can choose—as certainly no white
woman of whatever condition in socie
ty, will marry an Indian, when she can
readily marry a white man of some
wealth and prominence. Some of the
most ugly and slovenly servants here,
merry traders, who have accumulated
fortunes in a week."
TIII GREETING OP OLD COMRADES.-.—The in
terview between General Taylor and the offi
cers of the war of 1812, on the 2d inst., was a
very interesting scene. In reply to the admire-
ble address of Col. Todd, the President said:—
Ma. CHAIRMAN AND GENTLEMEN :-1 am
happy to receive you as the surviving
officers of the war of 1812, mid to rec
ognize among you some with whom I
have served in past years. I thank you
kindly for your congratulations and
good wishes on this occasion.
In regard to my past services, to
which you have been pleased to a llude
in too flattering terms, 1 can only say
that the merit of these services is main
ly duo to the skill and bravery of the
troops who served at different times un
der my orders. Tu have led such offi
cers and such men is itself a sufficient
honor and reward for all my services.
1 feel that I am now entering a new
career, in which 1 entertain a natural
distrust of my ability to redeem the ex
pectations of those who have called me
to it.
For your kind expressions in this re
gard, I beg you to accept my sincere
thanks. May you long live in the en
joyment of health and happiness.
The President then mingled with courtesy
and cordiality among his ancient associates, and
gratified them by some sportive remarks intro
duced with admirable taste.
Horrible Tragedy.
A most horrible tragedy was enacted in War
ren township, Bradford county, Pa., on the
night of the 10th inst. The house and barn of
Mr. Charles Corben was discovered about mid
night to be on fire. Three persons were in the
Wise at the time, Mr. Corbett and his two
sons, one 7 and the other 13 years of age, and
their bodies were burned. The father had com
mitted suicide by cutting his throat, and it is
supposed he first murdered the boys and then
set the house on fire, He had also tied up in
the barn eighteen head of cattle and a horse,
and they would all have been destroyed had it
not been for the timely arrival of some of the ' i
neighbors who released the cattle. The only
motive for this fearful crime which can be con
ceived,
is a brutal hatred of his wife, who only
a few days before, he had driven from home.—
He had a daughter also, whom he brutally mal
treated, and who escaped from home only the
day before this tragical occurrence.
A HAPPY EXPRESSION.-It is said that a gen
tleman of Washington city called at the White
House, a few days since, accompanied by his
family, consisting of three sons and six daugh
ters, to pay hie respects to Gen. Taylor. They
were received very cordially, and after shaking
hands with all, he turned to the father andsaid
5 5 Sir, you are a rich man,—a nation's strength
consists in the number of her people, and a pa
rent's wealth in the =Veer of his children."
