PENNSYLVANIA.-The position of this State
illustrates in most striking manner, the necessity
for surrender Of party prejudice for the sake of main
tanning correct principles and restoring the prosperi-
ty Of the country It illustrates the fatal influence
of permitting the parisans of the federal government
to interfere in matters which pertain exclusively to
State Legislation.
Pennsylvania has commenced and carried out near
" to completion, system of Internal Improvement,
involving expenditure to the amount of thirty mil
lions of dollars 1t might be expected that, in the
prosecution of SO large expenditure many rival in
terests would spring up, and that local questions
would giverise to angry political elimination How
important then it, that these questions should be
adjusted solely in reference to the interests of the
State, and that the baneful influence of federal poll
tics should be excluded from their discussion But
this is not permitted The party in Office resort tc
every expedent to enlist partsans, and hence theil
influence is thrown into the scale of passion and pre-
udice, under the hope of making political capital

Correspondence Of the Pilot.

MOBILE, 10th April, 1870
DEAR SIR-We have your FePilot" among us, in
the South and intend to give him cheering breezes in
his onward course to the capitol. Old Harrison will
make noble commander of the ship Of State, and he
has many fine officers on board with numerous and
Jealous crew. Being so well prepared, doubt not
that his 'Pio" will carry him in safety to the desr-
ed haven.
Our City has been thrown into great commotion,
by most outrageous act which was pcrpetrated up
on very able and esteemed member of the Editorial
corps, board the steamboat Gov Pickens, on Sat
urday evening last. When about twenty miles above
the city, political controversy between G. B.
Hayden, Esq, the Editor of the Marengo Patriot,
and passenger named Gee. Mr.. Hayden was sitting,
after tea, convcrsing with Of his friends when
Gee obtruded himself into the party, and used very
abusive and offensive Language towards MIR Hayden,
Offering TO bet with him, and upon being refused his
bet, challenging Hayden to fight. That gentleman
used every eA6rt to rid himself of the annoyance of
Gee and finding that he would not desist he left the
company, and was proceeding to the ladies' cabin,
where his wife was, when Gee deliberately drew a
pistol, and fred at him. The ball took effect in Mr.
Hayden's hip, and he dangerously wounded
The rufiian Gee instantly secured by the passen-
gers, and the Captain put back with his boat and
turned to thc city. Mr.. Hayden is gentleman very
much beloved among his acquaintance, and the out
rage was one of the most Caring that we have ever
known You may ima gme the distress OF his estima-
bic wife, when her husband who, few moments be-
FORE had left her to join his friends, now brought back
bacwounded by the hand Of ruan, and SO severely,
| to leave scarcely hope OF his recovery Gee, on
the arrival of the boat committed to prison, and
with the assistance OF good surgeons is hoped that
Hayden will recover When shall we get rid of these

MOBILE MARKET Anril %

No alteration was observable in the character ofour
Cotton market on Saturday-the same general quiet
continued which had existed the preceding three
four days Holders were rather firm, relaxing only
in their pretentons to conform to the wishes of plan
ters about leaving the city Buyers take only such
lots as come within their views, and act with much
caution, combining their enquiries to cottons in
charitable order, and under cover.
The high rates ruling in Exchange interrupt no
gotiations except in such limited required
by the most urgent necessity.
Freights yet at a stand, no deviation having
occurred from the rates that have ruled during the
week.
