There are to be added to tbe ahipa' companies 700 marines, which, with the complement of the atoreshipa, officers scientific corps, and others attached to the expedition, will make tha effective force of 4000 men and 330 guns, mostly heavy ordinance. The steamers are each to mount a couple of Paixhen shell guna of the largest calibre, and placed on revolvingtrucks so as to sweep the horizon. These guns are intended to be used for the discharge of shells 90 and 120 pounds each, and long 's, making 22 guns to each steamer. Each ship is provided with two brass 24 pound field pieces, to be used for shells or canister shot. Steamboat No vember 13.

Last night, the steamboat Buckeye Bell, whilst passing through Be verly Lock, near Marietta, burst her boilers, with a fearful report, killing fifteen of her passengers and crew, and severely scalding a number of others. The explosion is attributed to the gross recklessness of one of the engineers, who, it was said, was holding the safety valve down with his own weight at" the time of the explo sion. 1 he carpenter declares that ne told him, a few minutes before, that he had too much steam on. Every flue in one boiler was collapsed, and the other boiler can not be found, having probably been blown overboard to some distance. The boat is terribly shattered, but fortunately the ladies' cabin escaped the effects of the explosion, and the lady passengers were consequently uninjured.

Remains of an Indian. The remains of an Indian were dug up at Wheeling, Va. a few days ago. The Gazette says We judge that the skeleton is that of a red man from the peculiar shape of his chin and the soundness of his teeth, and from the enormous size of his skull, his thigh bones, and other parts of the human frame, he could not have been less than seven feet. Most of the remains crumbled to pieces upon being exposed to the air.

A portion of one of his jaws, however, full teethed, has been secured by ourselves. The Hog Trade at Columbus Messrs. Weaver Co. of Columbus, Ohio, who sent0 from 10,000 to 15,000 hogs to the East during September and October, have 18,000 head contracted to ship during the present month, at an average cost of $4 20 gross. Five thousand head are contracted for the month December, at an average cost of $4 124 gross per hundred, Gerkitt Smith, according to a correspondent of the "Washington Republic, is not so poor as he is supposed to be His benevolence, so far from having stripped him of his possessions, is stated to have on ly rid him of his waste lands and it is averred that he sti 11 ownes 2,000,000 acres of land.

His real estate in Oswego coun ty, N. Y. alone, is estimated to be worth $400,000. Paying dear for the Whistle At Baltimore, on Thursday, apart of the pri vate stock of wines and liquors of the late Josiah Lee, Esq. were sold at auction, and brought extraordinary prices.

Fifty demijohns of various brands of Madeira were struck off at prices ranging from twenty- four to forty-nine dollars per gallon and one lot of twenty-two bottles commanded the extreme price of fifteen dollars and fif. ty cents per bottle which at five bottles to the gallon, is at the rate of seventy-seven dollars and fifty cents per gallon Scarcity of Silver in England. There is great complaint of an increasing scarci ty of Silver change in England, although the mint had issued small silver to the extent of 160,000 since the first of July last. The Queen had issued a proclamation declaring that silver shall not be a le gal tender in the colonies for payment of sums exceeding 40s. Silver coin had hith erto been used in many of the colonies for large payments.

This proclamation was doubtless intended to prevent the large export of silver coin to Australia. Gen. Pierce, the President elect, arriv ed in Boston on Wednesday evening, and attended Madame Sontag's concert on the following evening. During the day he was waited upon at the Tremont House, by a delegation from the New York demo cratic committee, respecting his visit to New York. He acepted their proffered hospitality, and informed them he would reply in writing fixing the day of his ar rival.

Removal of Free Negroes. In the report of the proceeding of the North Ca rolina Legislature, we see that Mr. Webb, of Rutherford, offered in the House of Commons, on the 20th ultimo, a resolu tion instructing the Committee on Finance to inquire into the most eligible plan for gradually removing free negroes from the State, and that the resolution was adopted. It ia said, that the President elect received two bushels per day ol letters contain-ing application! for office, new pojtaga law rcqmrra the Department to place in the hands of tbe post ma era for sale, will be ready in January. Tbe contract for the aupply of these envelope ia made ith Mr.

Geo. F. NesUtt, of iew York, and ia to last till June, 1S57. A correspondent at Washington, to whom the Ledger applied for information, aaya the stamped envelopea will only supercede the use of the present atampa so far aa persona may prefer them which ia supposed will be to a limited extent. The consumer ia to pay the price of the stamp, with the cost of the envelope added.

The difference ia not yet determined, but will be very trifling. The object of the law waa not to supercede the present atamps, or to interfere with their use, but to afford to parties wishing it, an opportunity of sending their letters out of the mails, without any infringement upon the revenues of the Department. The contract prices at which Department is furnished, are, for note size, $1 50 per 1000 letter sie $1 75 per 1000 official $2 00 per K)00 with a small addition to these prices, to cover freight and other expenses, incidental to their distribution. The above i i i a prices, oi course, in auuiiiun iu me vuiue of the stamp. Public Ledger.

A Giant and Giantess. At Plaistow, in Essex countyj England, there at present resides a woman, aged twenty, who stands six feet four inches in height the middle finger of either hand measures six inches the length of ber arm is twenty- eight inches. It ia only within the last three or four years that she has attained her present extraordinary height. There is every indication that two or three inches more will be added to her stature. The Kentish giant Edward Carusar, is paying his addresses to this young woman, and they will probably be married.

Carusar is only nineteen years of age, and stands feet 6 inches. His father and mother are below the middle stature, and his sis ters are dwarfish. Mu. Webster and the HarTford Con vention. IhelNew lork iribune, in re ply to a correspondent, says that Mr.

Web ster was not a member of that famous Hart ford Convention. He was in attendance at Washington as a member of Congress at the time the Hartford Convention was in session, ivir. Webster was then a resident 1 his native New Hampshire, which though decidedly federal in politics, decli ned to send delegates to Hartford, though one or two appeared there as representa tives of a particular portion of New Hamp shire. Removal of Fort Dodge. From the Kanesville, Iowa, Bugle, we learn khat Fort Dodge, which is now situated on me ues ivioines river, above rort ues Moines, will be removed, next spring, to Sargeant's Bluffs, on the Missouri river The steam saw-mill, and other apparatus connected with the fort, will be transport ed this fall.

This is a movement of great importance to the upper country, and will give greater security to the settlers, by holding in check the roving, bands of In dians who now traverse that section with unrestrained freedom, to commit petty an noyances wherever they please, and on whom they please. Fire in the Mountains. Great haul of Wild Ducks. The Blue Mountain, in the vicinity of Hamburg, the Reading Pennsylvania Journal says, took fire from a locomotive last Monday nignt. A singular circumstance connected with the fire was the capture next day of a large flock of wild ducks.

These ducks were attract ed by the fire during the night, and had their wings and feathers so badly singed and burnt, that they were prevented from flying, and were of course easily caught. Pig Iron was sold in Pittsburg, on Wednesday, for $40 per ton. A few months ago it could be bought for $22, The Pittsburg Gazette attributes this great rise to the scarcity of the article, many furnaces being out of blast. This rise will soon set them in feneration again. The late rise in England has also given metal a start in this country.

Mr. Webster and Mr. Adams. It ap- pears from a statement in the New York Tribune, made by Peter Bnggs, of Trenton, that Mr. Webster had determined to leave President Tyler's cabinet on the resignation of the other members, but at the earnest solicitation of John Quincy Adams he consented to remain in it until after the negotiation of the Ashburton treaty.

The Mint. The London Times states, on authority, that, besides a much larger amount of gold coin, more than three million pieces of silver coin, to the value of .160,000, have been issued from the mint to the public, through the bank, since the commencement of July, and that the most energetic measures are being adopted at the mint to increasethe supply. National Railroad Convention. We see it stated in the Ohio State Journal, published at Columbus, that there isa movement on foot for holding a National Railroad Convention, somewhere in the West, at a time to be named hereafter, to bring the people of the East, West, North and Sout together, for the purpose of consultation and the acquisition of necessary in telligence relating to the interests of the country. The Legislature of Virginia, at its next session, will be required, under the constitution, to provide for the election by the people of three commissioners, to constitute a Board of Public Works.

Evar foat-maater ia authorirad to aetaa eeaty riselaa been ascribed to varioua cause, i 1 Huckstering wing me pnocip-i, probably, aa much owing to diroinitbed production aa to any other cauae. A larga amount of the producing population has been carried off to tbe gold fielda of California, and the large number of railroad enterprisea now in proceas of building, have diverted labor from agriculture while a general rise in pricea retulta from the increasing quantity of gyld flowing monthly into the country. The letter alluded to, aaya In spite of 20 per cent, duty, the agricultural producta of thia province are finding their way across the American fron tier in increasing quantities. Agents of American houses are traversing the country in every direction, and buying up butter, eggs, cheese, pork, and even hay. This latter article has been never purchased before in thia market foi exportation but ia now purchased, packed and sent over in considerable quantities.

It has already, so early in the season, reached the enormous price of $16 per ton. This trade is diverted to two great Atlantic cities, New York and Boston, but principally the former. Cattle and pigs are also bought up in considerable quantities for the American market: This is a large and increasing trade, in the face of the existing duties the articles in question being actually consumed in the American market, and consequently paying the duties. Marbleized Iron The use of iron, in its application to building purposes, seems to be daily extending its durability, solidity and susceptibility of ornament for architectural" adornment, without much increasing the cost, recommending above all other materials. A new appli cation of it has just been made by a company in New York, in the manufacture of marbleized iron, which has all the beauty and variety of color that marble itself exhibits.

The iron appears to be enamplled, and tne cnoisest kind ot marble lor mantles, columns and table-tops, are imitated so closely that the ordinary eye cannot de tect the difference. The ereat advantages ol.this article are its cheapness it is pro duced at one-half the cost of marble, and in various shapes and forms, according to the taste of the purchaser its durability, ana its capability ol resisting a greater de gree of heat. Neither acids nor oils affect it, in which respect it has a decided ad vantage over marble. The beauty and utility of this manufactured article will make it a valuable and important substi tute for Poor Devils. A writer in the Jour nal of Commerce saysnthat there are more specimens of "the poor devil" in California than in any State in the confederacy.

Among his acquaintances there are no less than four dry goods merchants who peddle clams for a living, and seven ministers of the gospel who tend bar According to him, the only men who thrive in California, are the rough, tough, and go-a-head. The mere gentlemen stands no more chance on the Pacific than the mere idler. People who set a value on soft hands and soft living will please no tice. A Hopeful Youth. A boy, 12 years of age, was brought before the Mayor's Court at Cincinnati, last Sunday, by his father, who stated that the family were abso lutely afraid the youth would take their lives, and that he himself found it absolute.

ly impossible to govern the boy that he had threatened them with stabbing, and had even purchased a pistol for the purpose of shooting Mrs. his house-keeper. A double-barrelled pistol was produced in court, which the police officer who accom panied the father to the court-room said he took from the boy, who told him he bought it for the purpose stated. The Mayor sent the boy to the house of refuge. The Butter Trade of Cincinnati.

During the year ending the 1st of Septem ber last, the imports of butter at Cincinnati were 3,412,600 and the exports 2,321,250 lbs. The Price Current esti mates the consumption of Cincinnati and vicinity at about 4,000,000 lbs. per an num, and the receipts by private convey ance at about 3,000,000, making 7,000,000 lbs. as the ready supply of butter from all sources the value not less than a million of dollars, or nearly one-third the value of hogs disposed of in the fork city. The Maine Law.

The Massachusetts Lite Boat states that eleven of the eigh teen members elected to the Senate of that State are in favor of the present liquor law. A majority of the constitu tional candidates for the vacancies in the Senate are known to be opposed to a repeal of the law so that whether that branch is filled up by the Whigs or by the Coalitionists, there will be a majority in favor of the law. Jenny Lind. The last report respecting that lady is that she has become insane, in consequence of difference with her husband. The Boston papers, which mention this piece of gossip, gives as authority Sontag, who sojourned in the same city with Lind for several months, previous to coming to America, and visited her mansion almost daily.

But doubtless the whole story is a fabrication, and Sontag never authorized any such statement. I A party of Gipsies have encamped about 1 miles from Annapolis, on the road leading to South River Ferry. nn ctatancu able to frame a tariff which could poeeibly produce the same happy results. However genaral we may be in thia -position cf the manufacturing interests and resources of Pennsylvania, we are satisfied that the evidences of her prosperity are too abundant to be doubted by the most time- aerving theorist of the age; We begin to aee what are her true resources and with a mighty force, she ia moving on in the road of prosperity to the high post of wealth. We aee fcef countiea fast establishing themselves in positions of manufacturing trade we discover on her western borders a city of commanding influence in the north another which is now the centre of the lake trade and in the east, her great and glorious metropolis has become the envy of her neighboring commercial sisters, and the just admiration of cities throughout the country, which are rising to and anxious for business nence.

emi-J' Look again over Pennsylvania, and aee her wondrous lesources. Follow the Juniata through its meanderings, and witness the rich banks which its waters lave banks well stored with iron and filled with coal studded by forests, and inhabited by a people proverbial for their industry and celebrated for their integrity. Follow the Susquehanna, and behold the teeming fields of the East, glowing with their crops ol goiuen grain, i nen trace me Schuylkill, and learn of the vastness of the inexhaustible beds of coal which line the country through which it passes. How boundless do all these appear how indescribably great, and yet how little appreciated by those who have been fa vored by their wealth, their advantages, and their blessings. Who will, doubt that Pennsylvania is capable of becoming the Supreme State of the Union.

Pennsylvanian. An Apple Speculation. Twenty-five hundred barrels of Newton Pippins went as freight in the last European steamer. They cost five dollars per barrel the freight charged is one dollar twenty-five cents, and they are sold in Liverpool for twenty-eight shillings, or seventeen dol lars per barrel. The expedition with which perishable merchandise ot this de scription can be delivered, ensuring its good order, has given rise, this season, 'to quite an extensive trathc.

As there are thousands of acres of wild lands in this State and New Jersey, which could be converted into apple orchards without much labor or expense, the raising of fruit for exportation at such prices would prove a prohtable business. Indeed, the prices for domestic consumption of late years would bring a good profit. Provisions are enormously high Philadelphia. Beef, for example, of the best qualit', commands sixteen cents a pound, and porkveal, and mutton, like proportion. Our country friends should make hay while the sun shines, and the present is the time to send their produce to market.

A friend on Saturday last paid $1 25 for a pair of chickens which weighed ten pounds. Ducks about the same. Butter from 31 1-4 to 37 1-2 cents a pound. These are indeed high prices, and should they continue, we anticipate something like a rebellion." The working classes will be compelled to stop eating meat, or to for higher wages.

Visit of Bishop Scott to Liberia. Bishop Scott, of Wilmington, who preached an eloquent sermon in the Monu ment street Methodist Episcopal Church on Sunday last, will sail lor Liberia in a few days for the purpose of attending the conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church which is to be held there. He will remain in that country for a few weeks and then embark on his voyage homeward. The members of the church number some ten or twelve hundred ir Liberia. The ministers are colored men A Valuable Cow.

The Howard Ga zette states that Mr. Fort, of Ellicott's Mills, has an Ayrshire cow, which dur ing the month oft May, in twelve days yielded sixteen pounds of butter. In one week, during June, Mr. F. sold fifteen gallons of new milk and made five pounds of butter and during the last six davs in October he sold thirteen gallons of new mi lki nd made two pounds of butter.

What it Costs. It is computed that a Presidential election, including all expenditures, legitimate and illegitimate, from the nomination to the costs not less than a half a million of doU lars per State. In Conskquence of the heavy rains west of the mountains the Pennsylvania Railroad will not be opened to Pittsburg until the fifteenth of December, our monied cilneni. tod conclu-i ive etidence that PenniylvtDit ii pecu-rly adapted to the production and of lie useful rt, and that event-illy he will outstrip her iister Statu in anarch, of improvement and the in-ease of wealth. Thousands, yea milliona dullara are being invested in tbia State, the erection of factories, furnace and uuJrita and that thia capital comei im foreign aources, ia either the testimo- of Cur own poverty, or the result of a nsurable inactivity.

It would be shame-I, however, to admit that there ia not, Pennsylvania, sufficient energy to take vantage of the abundant and numerous iburcea which fill every section of the ite and that there ia not plentitude capital in every county to develope the 1st advantagea of the Commonwealth, is aother surmise which every man and knows to be false. Pennsylvania is ie great State of the Union. Geogra-lically, financially, politically and soci-ly, she occupies a prepondering position -and is in reality, not only the Keystone the Federal political arch, but the iuseway of commerce, the threshold of and the altar of industry. Ev-t if ber own citizens cannot fully appelate her value, strangers know how to timate her advantages, and, as distance nds enchantment to every view, so do teeming fields, verdant valleys, and ch mountains of this State stored with exhaustible deposits of iron and coal, at-ict the wealth and energy and industry foreign capitalists and here find those varding results, which ever flow from sources of energy and enterprise. It is only lately, that the true value of metary investments in Pennsylvania ve been discovered, and ever since the which has attended the cotton ide in this State, projected mainly by nator James of Rhode Island, and thro' i perseverance prosecuted with success many of the millionaires of the Middle Eastern States, have directed their pital to this region, and here find a fair, trammelled, and successful realization all their investments.

The cotton fac-iesof this State are now even more jsperous than those of any other State the Union not excepting the mam-ith establishments of Massachusetts and nnecticut. The dividends are prompt-and profitably paid, and the produc-ns are received with premium endorse- in every market. The cotton fac- ies of Lancaster city, we have the best ison to know, are in a highly flourish' condition, and the fact that there are ee in active operation, is corroborative idence that even without special legis-ion, or favorite protection, energy and lustry combined with the reasonable nands of honest capitalists, are ever rtain to prosper. This applies not onto Lancaster county, but to every coun-in the State, where the hum of a loom the music of a wheel pay their earnest ceaseless tributes to the industry of people. In Allegheny county, Berks, Cumberland, Chester indeed, a dozen different districts, the same ad-rable system works out the same results, and all is effected by a spi-of enterprise which rises above the ex-litant advantages of special legislation which is to be attributed only to the of the State, the native indus-'' of the peo'ple, and the commendable e'rgy of honest capitalists.

4s an instance of speedy success, the ton manufacturers of Pennsylvania are rood illustration and while we com- ud the energy which has done so much the prosperity of Pennsylvania, there another branch of industry which is ut receiving a large impetus on the jh road to wealth. Pennsylvania is i an iron State iron in all her alth and iron in her staple produc- ns but the policy which has hereto-e governed this particular and govern-; branch of her industry, has paralyzed her efforts, and is only now to be re-died by the introduction of what we reasonably designate as foreign capi-, With all the advantages of a steady, er and thrifty population, with abun-it resources, with a climate fraught Ih health, with outlets of trade unde--ed, and with the wealth of sister es resistlessly flowing over her bor-5 the iron men of Pennsylvania have the most complaining and the most set of people in the Union. Pro-have filled their coffers to repletion, yet special legislation was and is in-ied to increase their wealth; and even der the protection of the government, nd in the possession of God's bounteous atural gifts, the richness of the State was Let decaying, and is at last to be rescued the energy 'of strangers. This fact lows that Pennsylvania cannot only de-r competition, but courts the capital of States, and invites to her midst men ho are 'willing to place her where nature signed she should be, at the head of the ealtti and enterprise of the world.
