We copy the following paragraph from the Pitsburg Chronicle of a late date, which will give the reader an idea of the energy and perseverance of it's citizens. The citizens of Wheeling, we see have sent up load of flour and meat for the benefit of the sufferers This is commendabIe, and should be initiated by every body. We hope that our citizens will have meeting and contribute their mite. -y'iem. .9Ppcat.
 ''Already with commendable spirit many are proceeding to build up where the fire has burt down. Many contracts have already been entered into for rebuilding, and some are already at work in temporary tenements.
 Industry, energy, and perseverance, must and will succeed. Phtsburg will rise from her ashes, and that right soon.
 We are pleased 10 learn that the insurance companies will come ont much better than was at first supposed. The Navigation and Fire company will be able 10 pay all their policies and have a surplus capital, but oi course it will take time to do it, and the Fire mems and Pennsylvania will pay large per centage, it Is now thought. The Allegheny Mutual is also considered good It will pay at least 90 cents on the dollar, and perhaps in full.
 Promptly have the citizens of Wheeling extended their aid to the unfortunate sufferers by the fire On Monday boat arrived hay. ing on board one hundred barrels of flour and three thousand pounds of bacon, sen from that city to relieve the wants of the poo of our own.
 In the name of tie unfortunate we returr thanks for this kindly and timely aid.
 We understand that the jail is full oi thieves, who were caught stealing property belonging to the sufferers by the fire of Thurs day last. They should be punished to tine full extent of the law"

EX-GoYEENoR THoMAs OF MARYLANn.-- The friends and neighbors of Mrs. Thomas residing al Lexington. Virginia, called a pub lie meeting al the court house in that place last week, to take into consideration the cons tents of a pamphalet recently issued by Gov. Thomas, relative to his domestic allairs.- Capt Robert White was called 10 the chair, and the meeting was addressed by tho Rev. Henry Rullnet, Professors Armstrong and Dabney. the Rev. Mr. Skinner and others, and committee of thirteen was appointed to dralt resolutions expressive of the sense of the meeting. The resolutionse are lengthy, and assert that ''no young lady ever lived in that community who uniformly sustained more exalted character for purity of morals and refinement of manners than did Mrs. Thomas previous to her marriages" and that "since her return from Maryland her conduct has been modest, retiring, and becoming lady in her trying circumstances The re- solutions further state that the confidence heretofore felt in the purity and virtue of Mrs. Thomas is as firm and unshaken as it was before the publication of the statement of Governor Thomas.n They also declare their confidence ia the moral standing of Mr. i Robert J. Taylor, who is implicated in the l statement, and that 10 the influence of an in- sane jealousy, ill the opinion of most of them, must be attributed the inlcrences and
 conclusions of hc writer, rather than to any criminal conduct on the part of the wife.

APPOINTMENTS

We are gratified to learn that the Hon. WM. H. STILES, late membeTof Congress iron, Ga., has been appointed Charge to Austria, and the gallant and eloquent Mai. Auguste Davezac, appointed Charge 10 the Hague These are admirable appointments, where the public sentiment will be in perfect accordance with tho Executive favor IL is peculiarly iltiing that Maj. Dayezac should be sent to the Hague, from which he was recalled in io5o, hy one of those blunders or mistakes W"'eh sometimes occur in the complex work l ihgS ol me atalrs ol the Government The l supposed reason for the recall had not a shadow ot foundation in truth or in sem oianace; and as proper appreciation of his merits and his character, he IS now replaced m his former position This able end ever jealous advocate of Democratic principles, the gallant aid and enthusiastic lrend. of Gen. Jackson, receives ill this appointment a re- ward as worthy of his merits as il is gratify- ing and pleasing to his friends.
 HON. J. F. H. CLAIBORNE,
 Col. j. r. II. Claiborne, formerly mem Der oi Congress from Mississippi, but now the able editor of the New Oreaus Jefferson ian Republican, has received tho appoint- ment ol Agent for the preservation of live oak and other timber on the public lands in se7 yeral o! the Southern States The importance and high responsibility of this office, would scarcely be inferred from its unpretendlng ti- tie; but 1t is in reality one which requires great resources of mind, energy of character, and watchlul indsstry, to discharge it's duties properly. All these Col. Claiborne possess es in that eminent degree, which will insure the faithful protection of the vast interests committed to his care.
 The depredatons upon the live oak forests have become so great, as to oblige the Go- yenment to adopt the most energetic mea- surcs for their protection and preseryation,- It is said that immense fortunes are being made by these lawless depredations upon the timber of the public lands, and .his agency will probably save, directly aud incidentally, hundreds of tliousaudesto the Government.
 We look upon this appointment with the greater pleasure, because, in addition to his l ability and fitness for the office, il shows that his services and exertiogs as the conductor of a Democratic press are properly appreciated; and that the claims of the editorial corps to the iavors of the Goverlment are at least equal to the rest of their fellow-citizens.- 1 Constitution
