ley OF the Ohio, and TO Kentucky and Tennessee
and destined to command-tn draw off, if our
Pittsburgh friends will have the phrase-at least
portion of the immense trade of those fertile re-
gions Philadelphia does not build these .oads;
she does not command, or draw of, that trade
Ifthese improvements are likely to prove hurtful
to Pittsburgh, this is to be regretted it cannot be
helped. tbs not Philadelphia that does the iniu-
ry,-while Philadelphia Is, at the same, time
threatened with injury.
The diverted trade is to centre IN Wheeling; and
there Baltimore-the spirited Baltimore, whose
courage and energy we, though her rival, can adj
Understands ready to seize and make it her own =
There is no Disgusting this fact and so far as Pitts
burgh is concerned, there appears to be no remedy
A part Of the trade she covets must, and will, go
to Wheeling; and it will go there, all the same,
whether the Hempfeld Railroad he constructed or
not This fact ought to be forgotten in Pitts
burgh, nor in Philadelphia; and those who remem-
Der it i'll the former place, will be able to decide
what difference it makes to them, makes to Pitts
burgh if any, whether this trade goes to Baltimore
OF Philadelphia. This is a question of interest
to them; but it is to us question of profound mo-
ment whether we shall sit still and allow Balti-
more to have monopoly of this trade, or whether
we shall exert ourselves, like men, and, by build
ing the Hempfeld connection, place ourselves at
Wheeling in condition to contend with Baltimore
for the prlze. What right has Pittsburgh to find
fault with our decision in this ma!ter-to oppose
subscription by our Councils-to talk of our cum
friendly act,"-to menace feelings of perma nent
unklndness?" Hor projected Allegheny Valley
Railroad, opening to New York nearer route into
the Ohio Valley than that city enjoys by the line of
the Lake Shore Railroad, is one that cannot be
supposed to be otherwise than Instantaneous to
Philadelphia, but has Philadelphia ever complaint
ed of it, found fault with Pittsburgh for desiring
to make it? 1t is enough for us that it promises TO
promote the interest of Pittsburgh. We know that
Pittsburgh will deem that sutficentrea to JUS
ty her building it. Let Pittsburgh do us the JUS
tice to concede that we have an equal right of in
teres, and that add to the far greater claim of
necessity.
Our Councils will receive the remonstrance
which, we suppose, the Pittsburgh Committee will
address to them, with the fullest courtesy and in
the friendliest spirit but the question oil subscnp-
ton TO the Hempfeld Railroad will be decided by
them and it has been already decided by the citi-
Zens ofPhiladelphia, upon the grounds, not of the
selfish wishes or jealous caprce of Pittsburgh but
of the interest and necessity of Philadelphia. The
whole argument lies in nutshell. If we do not
want the trade which is to go to Wheeling, we do
desirable, the Hemp6eld Railroad is Indispensable;
and we ought to have it as money and hu-
man energy secure it to US.

GEORGE PEABODY, esq.,, the liberal Anne rican
banker in London, more than year ago offered
to subscribe ten thousand dollars towards fitting
out second expedition from the United States in
search of Sir John Franklin. The project, howev-
en- did not then go into effect, and it was only last
month that Mr.. Peabody was informed of the new
expedition fitting out in charge of DR.. Kane, un-
der the auspices of Mr.. Grinnell. Replying TO n
friend who had given him the information, he
writes:
"When made the offer, in January last, de-
sire 10 crafty feelings of international good will
and friendship made me anxious that an American
expedition should accompany that of Sir Edward
Belcher to assist in the pursuit of an object wor-
thy OF The two countries, and honorable to the ad
yenturous men who would volunteer their services
But as Mr.. Grinnel says that the
prospect oil success is as great it last year.
Shall be happy be an humble follower OF tina,
gentleman in his praiseworthy course; and if il
should be thought advisable to send out one or
more vessels in search of Sir John Franklin and his
companions, fully author re you to give in my be-
nall for that object ten thousand dollars "
The quiet manner of this great liberality, saws
the National inteligencer, is altogether worthy OF
the man. 1t was just so that he has made his large
donatlous to that useful society, the Maryland In
sttute at Baltimore, and for various other import
ant objects. ''Truly good name is better than
riches" but Mr.. Peabody has earned for himself
both.

IT. There was. recently, says the n. 4.
National Democrat, a family Of thirty slaves
in Virginia. which the owner offered to sell
into freedom at very small price. and some
benevolent parties in Philadelphia under
took to raise the amount by subscription.
The facts were presented by letter. to Mrs.
Signourney. who Immediately enclosed $25
for the object. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stove
was also written to, and. of course, she res
ponded BY sending a very large sum Of
money for the glorious purpose" She
had just realized an immense fortune by her
abolitionism-she was on the eve of start
ing to England. to be feted by the Duchess
of Sutherland. and caressed by the hand of
the nobility, and, Of course, she gave very
large sum to purchase these thirty slaves.
No, good reader, she gave not one cent
She sent back letter full of sweet sympa-
thy, abounding with the charity Of advice
and approval, but as empty Of money as her
own face is of shame at the contemplate
part she is now playing in England. Of forg
ing states evidence against her country.
No, she had no money for "the poor slave"
As her en- nent friend and co-laborer, Mr..
