yThe commereial Importanoe O. Wheelng:

There ar,. few cities in the Union offering greater
Inducements for the profitable investment of labor
and capital than the city of Wheeling. With al
most every facility for transportation Of her pro-
ducts to the seaLoard and to the interior, having
every facility for manufacturing purposes, andpos-
sessinE in a pre- eminent degree the great element
of cost in production, fuel, her coal beds the
richest coal being nexhaustable it is not surprising
that capitalists, desiring proftnbly to invest their
funds should naturally turn their steps towartsths
city. The Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road may be
said to be completed as the cars will in one month
from this date, be running from this city to Balti-
rore, thus afording the shortest and most direct
line tc the great Eastern market, passing through
iuexhans,abIe beds of coal and iron ore of the
richest quality, thus supplying our furnaces with
ore which they previously had to import from Ten
neEsee, Missouri and Kentucky. Then we have
the Ohio river, afording ready conveyance by
water for heavy freight destined for the West and
South. The Central Ohio Rail Road extending
West 10 Columbus, and destined soon to reach st.
Louis, will soon be completed as the work is pro-
crossing most rapidly along the whole line. The
HempGeld Rail Road, connecting this city with
PEilndelphin bya direct line, is in process of con-
struction and ''ill soon constitute the great con
Meeting link in the chain of Rail Way improve
ment. connecting the distant and productive West
with the Eastern cities, north of Baltimore. The
Marietta Road will soon be let on such terms as
give us the fullest assurance that it will at no dis
tant day, connect with the Baltimore and Ohio and
Hempfeld Roads, leading to the Eost, while the
Road between this place and WellSyille, Ohio, will
necessarily be put under contract early in the
Spring, thus giving an important and valuable
line to the Lakes, and completing the mighty chain
improvements, East and West which centre in
our city. Now, then is the time for profitable aud
judicious investmentand already; though the:snort
ofthe iron horse has yet to be heard in our Streets
our property is advancing in value, the march of
improvement IS every where seen, new buildings
are rapidly rearing their heads in every portion of
our city, and in period Of our history have the
prospects of permanent and substantial advance
ment been tmore bright and fiattering. All along
the line of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road lots
and lend are rapidly advancing, and we hesitate
not to say, that no better inducements for capital
and labor are any where afforded than in Wheel
ing. Now, then, is the time for action. A large
number OF lots between Centre and South Wheel
ing can be bought on the most moderate terms and
will double in value in short time. On the Island
SIMILAR inducements are held out, and all that is
needed is for capitalists to make iudicious selec
tons for investment. and their fortune is almost
certainly made.

The Meeting of Congress. <


The closing session of the thirty-secohd Com
gress commences this day two weeks. The mem
bers ate beginning to come on, and the ARRIVAL of
number in Washington is already announced.
The annual message of the President the last
which President Filimoreis to write, will be look
ed for with interest," as in It we shall have full
detail of the afiis Of goyernment that have grown
up since the Congress adjourned.
The most important domestic question winch
will come up in the approaching session OF Con-
gss the signs Indicate will be that for the dlspo-
Sition of the public lands. Mr.. Benton, who has
been elected tn the next Congress, whose regular
session begins in December of 1858, has racently
delivered q speech on the subject, IN which ne
ayows himself in favor of homestead OH sllnllaI
TO that agreed TO by the House last sessloh' anu
proposes further, the adoptiono graduated prices
of the public lands, according to the length OF tune
they have been in the market-libeial grams 10
States for railroads and other improvementS-an
immediate cesSion to the States of all the LANDS
within the influence of malaria from swamps-
and an absolute ceSSion of all the lands remaining
unsold in each State en- frst of January, 1860.
These propositions partake of the extreme, tt
which politcians-who have for a time lost caste
with their party, as Ia Mr.. Benton-afe olte1
tempted TO resort, in the hope Of reg lining lead
ing pcsition befo:e the country, that may turthel
advance their ambitious desires. The fact that tht
distribution disposal of the public lands Is to be
made leading questionin the next Congress, where
it will be made an element for personal or party
popularity, should almonsh the members OF the
present Congress, that it IS in their power-anc
they ought to regard it IS a duty-to settlt
the matter themselves. The Presidential cleo
ton is overall the members of the next Congress
are elected-and there is, or ought to be, free
dom in the present Congress from political excite
mentS, that well fits it to settle The question.
The public lands will be disposed of some way
The abuses of the present systematic temptation
which the possession of these lands by the gener
al government, and the power of Congress to dis
pose of them, presents TO those who are ever ready
for any issue, and can only hope to live by them
and constant change which is going onin the rela
tive powerof the old and new States-all admonisl
Congress that no time should be lest in making al
equitable and fair diversion of them among all thu
States. The bill proposed by Mr.. Bennett, at thu
last session, embodies the principle of fair divis
ion of the land among all the States, and we hop'
it may pass at the next session, and then the mat
ter will be settled.

Opinion of the Superior Court of N. Hamp,
shire on the Liquor Bill
CONCORD, N. H., Nov. 10.


The opinions of the bench of judges of the SUI
perior court respecting the consttutionaity of the
liquor bill, were read in the Senate this morning
They state generally that it is very apparent even
upon the most curSory reading, that the bill is
drawn without reference 10 the State conStitu-
ton, and they specify the following points OF con-
fiict:
1st The bill coufers on justices an extent of au-
thority the constitution does not sanction, paTticu
larly in respect to the power gives them to pro-
nounce sentence of fOrfeitu e on liquors seized
for violation of the law.
I'd. The bill provides for no trial Ly jury, or for
appeal and trial by jury before higher court
The constitution provides that in all controversies
concerning property the parties have right to q
trial by jury.
| Sd, The seventh section of the ACT conflicts li.
rectly with the Constitution of the United States.
This section provides that no action can be main
tanned in amy court in the Stnte either in whole Ol
in part for intoxicating or spirituouS liquors sold
| in any other State or county. No law of this
State can deprive citizen of the United States oil
the right 10 enforce debt before the tribunals o
tins State.
4th. Liquors are properly. The law in recog-
nizng them as such il. the fourth section, when in
the hands Of town authorities fer Sale and oil me
chanics for use, cannot, by the force of few
phrases, make properly lose its character when in
other custody. ..-.-
9th. Double or increased penalties in cases OF
conviction under appeal, because it operates as n
llicls with his rights to an appeal, and cannot be
supported by the constitution.
9th. The bill is designed BY its provisions TO de-
mand excessive bail and rendeEit difficult to pro-
cure sureties. If it had been added that the ac-
cused should not have the benefit of counsel to de-
fend him, she parallel between the present law
and the practice in England in former days would
have been complete.
9TH. The conviction of principle through any
act of an agent is held to be unconstitutional The
accused should be confronted with the witnesses
against him, says the constitution, but the liquor
bill says no; and tits therefore opposed to the con-
StitutionalTights OF citizen.
9Th. The people have right TO be secured against
all unreasonable search of their dwellings, ct Get
eraS, aid all search warrants must be under oath,
according TO the constitution. But searches and
arrests may be made according to the bill, without
warrants on oath, and it is thus unconstitutional.
The judges wind up by stating that some of the
objections are of the most serious character. The
opinion is signed by Judges Gilchrist, Woods, Bast
man aud BelI.-BOstOn Jour.

Judge Douglass,s Plan of Tonnage Duties

Judge Douglass's Plan of Tonnage Duties.
Judge Douglass's pet proposition meets with little
favor in the West, We have yet to see paper Of
| any character or influence on either side, in that
| section, which has ventur-d to pronounce an OPT
Mon in its favor The st. Louis Daily Democrat Of
late date devotes large space to its examination
and condemns it without reservation, as of tfnul-
fication origin and most perlous tendency. Hav-
ing recapltuated the points of the plan, the Dem
| ocrat remarks:
"From this, it is seen that not only States but
cities are have the power of internal taxation,
and also compacts among the States, in plain VIOLA
ton of the Constitution. OF course, oil these GUS
tom houses would be supplied with forts and can
non to compel the StOppage and obedience OF the
boats; also with revenue cutters and host of rev.
enue officers to hunt out and detect smugglerS-So
that the different States of this Uuion would be-
come what the German cities and provinces were
towards each other, and an account of which Mr..
Smith appended to his speech; the relief from which
by the Congress CT Vienna was considered a release
from barbaTism and .rom internal commercial op-
preston and plumber"
And il adds.
awe have been the more full on this subject be-
cause this system of internal State custom houses
has now become an article in the notification
creed and is now adopted as means of commence
ing the segregation of the States. Mr.. Douglass,
since the death of Mr.. Calhoun and the retirement
of Mr.. Rhett is its champion, and MI Atchlson, OF
this State, his hacker; all the notification party
follow suit, and the people of the State have re-
NAMED unapprized Of the extent and danger of this
new notification movement. We hope we have
made them acquainted whit Rnith all persons
may know what it is to have Mr.. Douglass and Mr..
Atchison supported, in the Baltimore Convention,
the Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates
of Missouri"
This expression Of opinion receives more than
commt n significance from the known identifca-
ton of the Democrat with Col. Benton, and it is
understood accurately to reflect his sentiments.
In another article, the Democrat intimates that
Mr.. Benton's opposition to Judge Douglass relates
to principles and policy, not to personalities The
scheme OF tonnage duties maytherefore be regarded
as one of the measures against which the doughty
champion of Western interests will direct his
powerful battery. We shall be curious 10 see the
ground on which the Judge will now base his
movement repudiated as it is, by the very section
for whose beneftit was professedly designed.

MxsrEnrous DEArRs.-Some time since, the ship
Alexander Grant, Captain Guthrie, arrived at this
port from Liverpool. In a few days afterwards,
two fine young men, aiticled for the trip to and
from this place, disappeared quite unaccountably.
It appears that. they went to certain sailors
boarding house, at which they were induced 10
drink largely of what is supposed to have been
druggetl liquor. They were then induced, by the
temptation Of twenty dollars advance premium, to
bind themselves TO 60 upon another ship. Their
drugged inebriation made them easy and uncon-
scious victims. Ii is supposed that, in this cond-
ton, they were sbundled'' on board the ship. The
ship on which they were put landed five dead men
at slaughter House Point, and of these they were
two. This singular and unusual mortality-hve

SMALL NOTES.
Ola Rnll,a Colony

Acouespondent Of the Philadelphia Bulletin,
dating at Clean, Potter county, Pa, gives the fol-
lowing gratifying account of the colony recently
established in that county by the lion yiolinist:
Where, but few short months ago, there was
nothing but vast, uabroken wilderness, we al
ready see the sure indications of a thriving and
populons settlement Large tracts of land have al
ready been cleaTed-new loads have been opened
Ia number of humble but comfortable dwellings
have been erected, and his people are busly enga-
ged in the erection Of saw and grst mills. School
houses and churches IRE also in progress of erec-
ton, and III little lille we shall hear the voice
of praise and nksgiVing where, less than year
ago. The deep silence of the forest was broken only
by the bowling of the ,anther, or the sharp crack
OF the hunters rifle. Probablytno section of the
United States has been settled with as much rap
idity as the spot from which am now writing this
letter. The Norwegians have proved themselves
hardy, industrious and enteTprising. They appear
not only satisfied but delighted with their new
home, Which bears strong resemblance to their
own country, with the advantage of a better soil
and more hoSpitable climate. They expect to be
Joined by several thousands of their countrymen III
the conrse ofthe coming spring season.
The tractof land purchased by Ole Bull, embra-
ces some 10000 acres and certainly displayed
great judgement aid sagacity in itsselection. One
portion OF it is admirably fitted for cultivation,
while anotheris equally adapted to grazing. There
is an abundance OF excellent timber upon it, en-
bracing beach, maple, cherry, hemlock, pine, &C.,
and it is knownft0 contain valuable drposites Of
coal and iron ore. 1t is divided into small famS,
and sold to the settlers ut q very low price in al
ternate sections which adds greatly TO the value
of the whole. There is an abundance of deer
and bears in the vicinity ol the settlement; and our
Norwegian friends have already become adopts in
taking them. 'nt e
