Removal OF the Seat Of Government to
Pittsburgh.

The Philadelphia Spirit of the Times has
long article on the subject Of Slavery,
the District Of Columbia, &c, which con.
cludes us follows:
The second proposition is not founded on
any fact, and is contradicted by the plain
words ofthe constitution, and by the ces-
sions of Virginia and Maryland themselves.
No reasonable man doubts the constitution
al power Of Congress, and the only ques-
ton left is one Of expectancy. In this
question Virginia has no particular part,
tor she has taken back her free gift. 1t
concerns only Maryland which in a few
short years will be free State by her own
act, and for her own interest
Upon this question there IS a growing be-
lief that it is unworthy the Capitol Of a
free country, 10 be the head quarters Of
slavery, with its inevitable contains, slave
pens and slave market, an Institution
which not now disgraces even Constantine:
pie, under the despolic rule of the successor
Of Mahomed: The retrocession Of the
Southern part OF the District Of Columbia
to Virginia has simpli6ed this question,
and if the citizens Of Georgetown succeed
in retroceeding the remainder of the Dis
trict Of Maryland, it prepares the way to
its inevitable result, the surrender Of all
the public grounds and buildings TO that
State, and the removal Of the seat of Gov.
ernment to Pittsburgh, point at the head
Of the Ohio, and in the direct line from
New York TO St Louis and San Francisco,
and accessible from all parts Of the Union,
by the rivers, lakes and railroads of our
happy country.
Pittsburgh requires no lavish expendi-
ture Of millions to force few houses and
a sparse population. She has wealth, in
telligence and industry, and no foreig, foe
Of this thriving metropolis.
