.. HARPER, ESQ:

L. HARPER, ESQ:
Dear Sir-The House having passed resO-
luton to adjourn on Thursday, have no doubt
the session will close on that day-after a ses-
sion of one hundred and two days.
All the work "cut out" by the Wings last fall,
with more, has been done TO order, and the
Wings will separate under the impression that
they have crippled the Democracy, beyond the
hope of recovery, for years to come. But
trust the indomitable spirit of the One Hundred
and Fifty Thousand Democrats, good and true,
will not submit to Wing rule, in any folm, but
rouse to the fight, and rescue the State from the
Infamous measures adopted by the cormorant
party now in power. No party has gone SO fal
as the Wings have gone at the present session
in adopting measures having political power fol
their object The Board of Public Works has
been turned out. The Office of State Printer
has been abolished Congressional, Senatoria
and Representative districts have been altered
to suit party views; and even townships have
been taken from strong Wing counties and al
tached to weak Democratic counties, to secure
Wing ascendency--no other purpose, whatever
without sufficient notice; contrary TO law. in VIC
:, lation of the Constitution and 10 disregard o!
public sentiment.
But will not be tedious. You have noticed
most of these things, as have done, with tha
{, indignation which it deserves, and similar 10 tina
which will perrade the State from the river t.
the lake.
Yours truly, r Fl. MILLER.

The Prosperity of Pittsburgh.

During the past week we visited the Iron City,
and had most agreeable and profitable sooum
We always feel at home in Pittsburgh, for we
find friends there in whose breasts throb warm
and sympathetic hearts. We could tell Pitts
burgher if We met him in the sunny South, the
frigid North, the busy East, or the broad and
beautiful West, He is always the same-hon-
est, liberal, kind, affectonate.
Pittsburgh was never in more prosperous
condition than at the present time Every de-
partment of business and trade is hourishing be-
yond precedent. Steamboats, are arriving and
departing daily, heavy freghted. The canal is
open, and goods are pouring in from the East
hourly, The work on the new aqueduct across
the Allegheny river is progressing rapidly, and
will be completed in the course of the summer
A number of new woollen and cotton manufac
tories are soon TO be erected, one of which will
be the largest in the West. A large number Of
new business houses arc being erected in various
parts of tho City, and in the vicinity several
beautiful villas have been put up by gentlemen
of wealth and taste
Two new Iron vessels have recently beer
launched at Pittsburgh. One is of $50 tons
and is built on Lieut. Hunters plan Of submer
ged propeIlers. She will be under the com
mand Of Lieut. Mclaughlin of the U. S. Navy
and it is said she will sail full-rigged to Russia
to astonish the Emperor Nicholas with a sight o
Yankee skill and genius. The other Iror steam
er, called the John NJ. Bibb, is now al the Mo
nongahela wharf, being rigged out in splendid
style as Revenue Cutter fer the Gulf of Mexi
co. This vessel was built at the celebrated Es
tablishment of Messrs, Freeman, Knap g. Tot
der, who have completed several contracts 70
the Government, alike honorable and creditablt
TO themselves and their country.
In our advertising columns will be found the
business cards Of large number of houses il
Pittsburgh, to which we respectfully direct The
attention of merchants and citizens generally
who wish to make purchases in that city. A
present goods of every description can be pur
chased cheaper in Pittsburgh, than at any for
meE period, owing to the great competition in
trade.
We hereby return our heartfelt thanks to oul
numerous and valuable friends in Pittsburgh
who have selected the Sentinel as the medium
through which TO send their advertisements tc
the citizens of Harrison and the adjoining coun.
ties. Its extensive circulation over the wealth.
est aad most substantial portion of Ohio, renders
the SENTINEL altogether the most desirable
newspaper for advertising in this section of the
State.

A CHINESE PUZZLEl

We will make a present of one years sub
scription to the Cadiz Sentinel, TO the individual
who will translate into plain common sense Eng
lsh the following section of the new banking
law. We have in our day worked with Chinese
puzzles, studied the meaning of enigmas, conun-
drums, figured out difficult mathematical prob
lens, but we freely confess that we are physically
and intellectually incompetent TO the task of Civ
ing the English Of this short section. Will not
some of the movers in the Bank meeting in Cad
IL, have the goodness to enlighten our citizens
in this matter?
Sec. g. The total liabilities of any person,
or of any company or firm Including in the liza
bities of company or firm the liabilities of the
several members thereby to any banking com
pany deriving any of its powers or privileges from
this act inclusive of liabilities as accepor or ac-
ceptors of bona fide bills of exchange payable out
of this State, shall at no time exceed one half, ex-
clusiye of liabilities as acceptor or acceptors one
fifth, and exclusive of liabilities on such bills Of
exchange one tenth part of the amount of the
notes which such company is authorized 10 cir
culatc, at the time of such liabilities.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE.

The New York Journal Of Commerce of the
goth ultlmo, publishes a letter from Washington
which states, upon what the writer declares 10 be
authority, that at the time of San
ia Annals fall treaty was in progress, and near
ly consummated, for the entire cession of Cali.
fornia, and New Mexico to great Britain it only
being defeated by the fall Of Santa Anna.
Ii is further stated, that the United States gov
eminent has been informed that papers were
found upon Santa Annals person, at the time of
his capture, confirmatory of the suspicious which
had been entertained some time before, of the
designs of England upon that section of the
country. II is not astonishing that Santa Anna
should have kept about his person such docu-
ments as related TO this astounding negotiation,
as no one had greater cause than he to dread
the exposure Of such purpose before its com
pletion. Nor was he man to place much reli-
ance upon the fidelity OF his cabinet; and hence
the probability that, when he left the CITY Of
Mexico, he took with him the papers relating 10
this affair.
If this intelligence prove well founded, (and
there seems TO be no good reason for doubling
the main point dovelops,) Great Britain was Sc,
curing for herself a more extensive and impor.
tant acquisition whilst affecting holy horror ol
American rapacity in seeking the annexation Of
Texas She was for dismemberng the Mexi-
can empire by intriguing with corrupt and fal,
ling dynasty, and against the consent Of the
people who inhabit the territory sought TO be ac.
quired, whilst The annexation Of Texas can on.
Ily be accomplished through tho wishes Of tho

CoTToN IN CALIFoRNIA.--The editors of the
New Orleans Pcayune have been informed by a
gentleman who left the Pacific coast in Decem-
Der last, that two or three Americans are about
to engage in the culture of cotton in the lower
part of Upper California, and that they feel con
fdent of raising a superior article, and IN great
abundance. Their rancho, or plantation, is not
far from San Diego, in latitude 33 deg, north, the
climate being warm and Delightfully."- fine. Ma
ny Of the Oregon settlers have arrived in the
neighborhood of the bay of San Francisco, in
The Upper California, and taken up their abode
there, They report Oregon as poor country;
nothing like the one it was represented to them
to be, and appear thankful that the opportunity
has been afforded them of leaving it and reach
ing more fruitful and genial cline. So produc
tive is the land in the neighborhood of San Fran.
cisco, that one bushel of wheat sown frequently
yields crop of seventy-fve bushels, and this
with very little trouble; while the climate is SC
dry and pure that sickness is almost unknown
American emigrants are constantly arriving and
settling at the Sacramento and oherstreams emp
tying into the bay of San Francisco. AT the
Ycrba Bueana the English is the principal Ian.
guage spoken, the Alcalde being an American
and the time is not far distant when this part o.
California will TEEN with Anglo-Saxon civiliza
tion, and the thrifty products of Anglo-saxor
hands.
