Dubuque Hospital.

In looking over a copy of the Miners Express
published in November, lS45, we have perceiv-
ed an allusion to a City Hospital, in such a con-
nection as to lead one to suppose that such an
institution would be erected in the then fol-
lowing spring.
The same reasons which existed at that time,
and required the establishment of such an insti-
tuition, exist now, and the necessity for such an
asylum is becoming every day more and more
manifest.
1t appears from this old paper, that a thousand
dollars were subscribed at that time in the short
space of three days; and much more was expect
ed. Why it was that with such good encourage
mcnt to start with, nothing was done, is to us a
mystery.
Now, that the population has increased, the
wants of the community demand that special
provision should be made for the sick in the usu-
al mode adopted in other Places viz by erect
ing suitable building, and having the proper per-
sons appointed to minister to the wants Of the
afflicted. How and by whom should this be
done, is the great question; but we presume that
difficult as it might seem to be, this point could
be settled with little interchange of sentiment,
if the main object were kept charitably in view
Will not some Philanthropist take hold of the
subject, and bring it before the public in such a
tangible shape as will gather around it some
support.

The Hit Direct.

FREE TRADE.-A recent writer thus describes
free trade:
Gree Trade is, think, we'll illustrated by the
story of the view in Marryat's captain Violet
-Bruin being up peach tree, vigorously
shaking down the fruit for his own eating, but
hog was below very complacently eating the
peaches they fell, and expressing by grunts
his satisfaction at the bears generosity"
John Bull is at the present moment enjoying
the satisfaction of eating the ''peaches' under
the operation of our free trade Tariff of1S46.
The above characteristic paragraph, says the
Charleston Mercury, is copied from the New Or
leans Bulletin. The beauty of the illustration
is, that it comes from British writer who makes
his own country act the laborious and unprofta-
bic part of bruin on the tree, while the Yankees
nre devouring the fruit of his industry. If the
protectionists on both sides of the Atlantic choose
to describe each other as hogs and bears, (beasts
of pIunder botl,) we shall not say they are wide
of the mark. In the meantime, they leave out
the Farmer, who is the owner of the tree and
it's fruits Brun is in truth the Government,
who is employed in shaking down fruits that be-
long to honest people: in order that the lazy
plundering gluttou of monopolist may stuff
himself without right and without labor.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL PRoysIoN.--The sud

of the constitution is as follows:

President; and the Congress may by law, pro-

TURKEY AND TIE UNITED STATEs.-We have
seen 4 private letter from an American gentle
man at Constantnopc, oflatc date, which men
tions, incidentally, but we doubt not correctly,
that our able Minister, Mr.. Marsh, has succeed
ed in pcrsuading the. Porte to send public agent
to the United States, and that he would set out
in a few days for America. Nomnally, the a
gent comes to inspect our navy, &c, and this is
main object ofhs mission. But the Porte has
other objects in view. He will be directed to
see everything worth examining, and will report
on our power and resources, our productive in
dustry, &c.
This mission, by making the government of
the Porte better acquainted with our institutions
and our country, its extent, resources and power,
cannot fail to be productive of beneficial results;
and we have no doubt that our government
will do every thing in it's power to facilitate the
operations and objects of the agent, well as to
secure the making Of a proper impression upon
him.
The Turks, we understand, are jealous Of
the great European powers, and strongly inclined
to be on the best terms with us; but they know
little of us, and many of them suppose that we
are very insignificant concern, because we
send no ships of war there, and keep Minister
on salary which will hardly pay his house rent

The following correspondence ofthe Stockton

shows that the recent tax imposed by the State
on foreign miners, is likely to lead to trouble:

the officers appear firmly determided to carry the
law into effect, and to perform their duty with
out tinching. Col Besancon, the Collector for
this county, arrived at Sonora on Friday last,
and all the foreign population, composed prnc-
pally Of Mcxicans, Chilians, and French, at once
became excited on the subject of the license tax.
They declared their intention, boldly and
publicly, to oppose its payment, even threaten
ing to meet force by force. Notices are posted
up through Sonora and the new American camp,
calling a general rally of foreigners for the pur-
pose ofprcvrnting the collector from proceeding
in his duty. The excitement became great
throughout the county, and although the Amcr-
can population in this county does not number
one fifth that of the foreigners, every man de-
claTcd his intention to support the law.

their meeting, and at least 5000 of them were
