E-A Scott mocting is to be held in Pittsbura

IA Scott meeting is to be held in Pittsburgh
on the 22d inst. The Scott movement there re-
ceives, it is said, but little f.vor from the old
whig organs, the Gazette and the Commercial
Journal. 1t is said that this 'hasty" move in
favor Of Gen. Scott is made in order to lend aid
in the reelection Of Governor Johnston. The
Pittsburgh Chronicle, in speaking Of this move,
says:
'This game is a very safe one for
our cunning Governor; he cannot lose by it, but
it may be the death of Gen. Scott. If at the
next Gubernatorial election the Democrats shod
succeed by their usual majority, notwithstand-
ing Gen. Scott. it would put that distinguished
officers availability in rather questionable light.
lfGen. Scotts popularity is to be tested in Penn
sylvania, in the election for Governor his chan.
ces for national nomination are, in our opinion,
come what doubtful. Should Jhonston be beaten,
it will give the opponents Of Scott, in the whig
party, unanswerable argument in favor Of the
nomination Of some other aspirant

The Rail Road-T0wn Lot Mania
High Rents.

The new impetus given TO business, in
Ravenna, by the recent opening Of the Rail
Road, is an era in the history Of our staid
little village, the like of which has never
happened with US before. All seem elated
with it, and why should we not? 1t helps
to make business for Merchants, tavern
keepers, for draymen, and livery stable
men, for Mechanics of various kinds, and
for common laborers, and the owners Of re-
al estate are calculating on rich harvest.
Already the nominal prices for town lots,
lands and houses are rising above any for
mer example, and some sales have been
made. But let us be little cautious
We have never had much experience of
expansion and contraction in the prices Of
real estate here, and it is not desirable that
we should have as much Of that kind Of
experience as some other places we know
Of, have had. Every rise in the price Of
lands houses and rents is a direct tax on
the landlcss pool, too, for the benefit OF the
rich. 1t takes from the poor TO give TO
the rich, and is often a most severe lesson
to those who buy lots at the ruinous prices
they sometimes sell especially when
ventured on by laboring men Of small
means. Such should never buy on credit,
for they may be sure the payday will
come; and it may come and find them un.
prepared. Times may change back again.
Even now we hear the cry of Money is
scarce and itmay grow scarcer. Indeed,
it may be question whether it is right,
whether it is moral in the seller to take ad-
vanta ge Of a sudden town lot mania to sell
to the deceived ones at such high rates or
to enslave the laborer by subjecting him
to long and tedious service TO pay for his
folly, as many have. Rents too are get
ting up; but is it right to tax the house.
less SO heavily for place to live or labor?
They too, had better not be SO lavish Of
promises for rents. They had better keep
back in the country while than crowd in
here too fast, and pay exsravagant rent
The Ra road will supply facilities for any
who may locate along it. to step into town
in few minutes, though they be several
miles out. Better live awhile in a COM
Portable log house, that can be built with a
few days labor in wood lot, than give
fifty dollars year for poor tenement in
town, that could be built for less than 5000,
So says one who has been
