/ PENNSYLVANIA. The resources of this
great state appear to be inexhaustahle, and
4 to need only the proper measures for their
development and use, to make her as
wealthy and powerful as any. With ter
ritory of 30,000,000 of acres, or $4,000
square miles, Pennsylvania employs in her
commerce, IL, GOO vessels Of 100000 tons;
imports to the value of $25,Q00,0OO, and
exports nearly S40,0OO,O00 The noun

+" iron, anthracite and bituminous coal, salt,
lime, and gypsum. Pennsylvania abounds
in iron ore, particularly in the central dis
trict. The magnetic oXyde of iron, which
is the ore from which the much esteemed
Swedish bar iron is made, and the red OK
yde Of iron, flom which the English plate
iron and iron ware are chiefly made, arc
! both found in the state. On the eastern
side of the Susquehannah, anthracite is .
4 found in greater abundance than in any
other part of the globe and the western
part of the state is richly supplied with BIZ
! luminous coal. Salt springs are common.

( Conemaugh and Kiskimintas Here arc

and molybdena, are found and to these
may be added long list of states, clays,

mountains will communicate with the west

Ohio rivers.-.N ]. Statesman.
ONO. The election in this State, (says
the Pittsburg Statesman,) has in almost
every county, resulted in favor of the Ad-
miniStration. The Jacksonites in Hamil-
ton and Jefferson, have elected their
ticket. They have been partially and but
partially successful in five other counties
that have as yet been heard from. We
have seen returns from thirty one counties,
and with the above exceptions. nearly
every man elected is a fast friend of the
Administration. From the eight counties
composing the Western Reserve, it is
believed that there has not been Jackson
lite elected We speak advisedly, and VIC
have the best authority for saying, that in
both branches Of the next Ohio Legislature,
there will he two to one in favor of the
reelection of Mr.. Adams.
GREAT INCOME. The beautiful domain
Of lLoor Park in Hertfordshire, has rust
been purchased by the Earl of Grosvenor.
What with his enormous estates in London
and Westminster (Where his lordshp is
erecting almost new aristocratical capt.
toll in Chester, Cheshire, Flintshire. and
Denbigshlre--atS SALISBURY, Hindon, Stock
bridge and numerous other places, the
noble Earl may, perhaps, he considered
+ the richest land owner in Great Britain.
His income is estimated at from 270,000i
to O0,0OOt. per annum, which sum, immense
as it is, is exceeded liy that of the Marquis
of Stafford, in great measure derived
from canal property. One only of Earl
Grosvenor's mining concerns in Wales is
let by him to company for 100000 per

SURGICAL. Dublin paper relates a
case as having recently occurred at the
Jervls-street Hospital" of novel and
critical character. The subject was Pat
rick Carey, Waterman, whose ribs, at
the left side were forced by a fall down an
area, into his lungs, which being perforated.
the air escaped and gradually filed his
body. When brought to the hospital he
had more the appearance of stuffed sack
than human being, and could not posi-
! bly, survive many minutes His chest was
Immediately opened, when quantity of
air rushed out with an explosive force that
excited great surprise. The ribs were then
replaced, and their pressure against the
lungs being removed, the patient began to
breath with considerable freedom. Besides
what he lost in the operation, it was found
necessary to take quart of blood out of
the chest. At present, says the paper, he
IS gong on as well as can be expected.
The air still comes through the opening in
the chest, sufficiently strong to blow out a
candle at three feet distance-but this will
cease when the larcerations in the lungs
heal. His complete recovery is antirnated
with confidence, and should that be realiz-
ed, 1t VIII furnish most interesting case
the annals Of surgery.
