The ATTACK on TIE STEAMER PENNsYIyA-
MA At WHEETING.--On Saturday the regular
Cincinnati and Pittsburgh Packet touched at
Wheeling, on her way down. She was attack
ed, as We are informed. in Il most eXtraorlina-
ry manner. The facts as we are informed from
the officers are as follows:
On the upward trip Of .hc Penns ylvana the
Capt. observed that the cables Of the suspen-
sion bridge were still stretched across the riy-
er, and it being high water lowered chimncys.
by which means the connection" was so cut
that no whistle could be blown. the officers of
the steamer solemnly d;sav owed any intention
of insulting the Wheeling people, on account of
the loss OF their magnificent bridge, but the
Wheeling papers regarded the lowering of the
chimneys. as a flout at the city, in the hours of
her great calamity and published several rath-
er lnfIaInatcry articles Oh tue subject
The result was that when the boat touched
at Wheeling, on her re turn trip several thons-
and people had collected at the landing, with
the avowcd purpose OF mobbing her. Capt.
klinefelter, ignorant of all this, landed as usu-
AL but was assaulted with bricks, stones, and
other missiles. so vigorously that, after min
utcs delay, he showed out and proceeded on
his voyage to this city. Had it not been for
the fact that the steamer City of Wheeling Law
between the Pennsylvania and the landing. the
damage TO the latter would have been much
greater; as it was, the boat escaped with the
loss OF some glass and fancy works in her cab

One OF THE 5000 SrGNERs-The Washington
correspondent of the Rich. Enquirer remarks
that very good commentary upon the protest
Of the 5000 clergymen against passage of the
Nebraska bill, is found in the fact that one of
them, the Rev. e. N.Adams, ofNew Hampshire
has run off with daughter of another of the
signers, after stealing three thousand dollars
from widow lady. He is fine fellow to sneak
lin the name of the Almighty Cod" but he is
found out. and think we had better search the
record further. He is not the only black sheen
in that flock Wasington Sentinel.
1t is pity to spoil SO conclusive an sretmcnt
against the morality of the 5000 Clergy men who
pettioned against the Nebraska Swindle But
justice requires it.
DE IL known, then. that l. No such person
signed the petitions; No such clergyman lives
IN New Hampshire; 3. No other "signer'' has
nan daughter run off with" 4. No widow in
New Hampshire has had $4,000 stolen FROM her;
and 0. There is not word of truth in the story.
The whole thing was exploded weeks ago.

the ship and cargo, on which the original claim
was based. have been released. The pccuniary
claim will thus not be difficulty. The second
point relates to the demand made by our Gov

but that the Governor of the Island shall be
empowered to grant prompt redress for such
