r.r'<»!* of me Boston Morning On the Pennsylvania June 21, 1210. the London Brokers should pass through fins great State, and notice its immense wealth, they would feci hat little anxiety about the payment of what Pennsylvania owes them and their fnends. The tax which has been so judiciously laid can scarcely be felt by the people, (or every where abounds evidences of their wealth. Wheat, corn, and oats, are in the best condition and promise a harvest fully equal to the great one of last year. It a rare treat to a Bay State man to pass through the miles arid miles of continuous wheat fields, ail of the most luxurious growth.

I do not hear of any thing being blighted, unless it be the rye-ihat does not fill out well; but the farmers pay but little attention to that article, for the reason that wheat and corn are nut more profitable for them to grow. The low prices do not alarm the farmers. They do not consider it a misfortune to have more te cat than is wanted. This Canal travelling is a new mode of conveyance to me. In good weather like what we are now enjoying it is most delightful.

We look the Express Boat, John Marshall, at Harrisburg, and come along the Dank of the Susquehanna to where that beautiful river is joined by the Juniaia. At this point the scenery is splendid beyond all description. The mountains rise very high on both sides, covered with the richest foliage of different shades. On our left, at the foot of one of the mountains is the pretty village of Clarksville. Before us the very handsome bridge over the Susquehanna, which stands high above the water, is built in good style and painted white; beyond the bridge is highly cultivated spot; and here comes in the Juniata with a handsome bridge of its own, and a village to introduce it to the Susquehanna.

The sun was just going down as we passed this beautiful place; and various enthusiastic expressions of delight told how much our fifty-six passengers (many of whom were ladies) enjoyed the scene. All agree in the opinion there was not a place oh the North Iliver approaching to a comparison with this in beauty. We followed the Juniata to its source on the summit of the Alleghany as we come in among the mountains, we leave the cultivated fields, and the hills, covered with wood, which have not known the axe, rise to a great height on both sides the canal in most majestic splendor. A cool breeze passes along the valley of the river, which ts very exhiliratmg to the traveller. Imagine, if you can, our fifty six passengers on the deck of our boat, which has no awning, just before sun down, of one of the loveliest days which ever smiled, among them a President of a Bank not far from State street, with his wife and daughter, sensitively alive to every beauty of external nature, and a couple of your dry goods traders, who have escaped from their calicoes and Bank nces to breathe the open ladies bound for the West to join their husbands, having their little ones with them, and gentlemen of intelligence from every direction.

Picture to yourself this scene, and then observe that beautiful dark-eyed girl, with nothing on her head, but a half blown rose in her hair. There are loose sheets of music by her side. She is going to sing. Imagine no; you cannot conceive of the sweetness of her song. Of one of the first fam- lies of New fine voice has been enriched by every advantage which culture and good taste can give and the songs which she vung were the best of the day.

Beautiful being! A young bride, just from the luxurious home of indulgent parents, thou hast started anew in the journey of this great whose guiding and protecting hand you have yet to try. God grant that your journey on to its latest hour may be as delightful as ours lias been over these majestic mountains. At Holltdaysburgh we took railroad cars over the Alleghany to Johnstown, a distance of thirty-seven miles. Ascending to the summit by five inclined planes of about a mile each, which we pass over very quick, on the top of the mountain we took a first rale dinner at the Summit House. It was a clear bright day, the 26th of June, wiih the wind from the west, still there was a good fire at the hotel for the comfort of the travellers; by which many of them warmed themselves.

We descended the mountain by inclined planes corresponding in number and length with those by which we through a lunhel, as we came down, cut through a solid rock 870 feet. From Johnstown we pass down by the side of the Concmough river through the most beautiful scenery which can be pictured to the fancy. I have written thus much, coming down by the Conemaugh. We have just reached the Alleghany river, and crossed it by a splendid aqueduct. For a pleasure trip I know of no route offering so many attractions as this one by railroad and canal from Philadelphia to Pittsburg.

You pass through some of the richest farming country in the world and the most splendid scenery. The living is good and the boats very comfortable, and commanded by very obliging men. I have a word to say of my friend the parson, who is travelling with me, but have not time now. Yours, ever, JIM. Pirary of the hrig The Charleston Mercury contains a letter from Havana, giving the particulars of the piracy of the Br- brig Vernon, and murder ot the crew, on the coast of Cuba.

After securing the vessel, by taking her up a river, they took tkrec of the crew, arid the captain of the Vernon into a boat, and murdered all but one, who escaped. Among the murdered was a man named Edward Norton, of Eastport, Maine. A young man named Peach, who escaped Dy swimming ashore, fell in with the captain of a small Spanish schooner. lie, supposing he was a essl-away sailor, took carc of him, and by signs made him understand he as sale. The follow mg is the conclusion of the letter: sfpinij the unforiunutc nictn to, Cspt.

Antonio Poloso, the worthy commander of the schooner. coasted along ihe shore in search of the vessel supposed to be wrecked. When within six miles of Cape Antonio, he lauded at the spot which the En- sailor pointed out, Thinking ihat the vessel was there, and having no suspicion of pirates. On Capt. landing he was met by the seven pirates and four fishermen, who threatened his life, but by artifice he deceived them and gained their eonfi- lence.

From them he gamed the intelligence of an English brig having been taken, and part of their crew' murdered, that two were still alive, but sotni be put death. It was now that the brave Spanish Captain Doe Antonio Peltjso determined to save these unfortunates or die in the attempt. lie gave the pirates three muskets and invited 'hem to breakfast with him on the morrow, but before leaving them he sought an opportunity of seeing the two sailors who were iu their power anil still alive. The pirate Captain said, that after murdering the captain and part of the crew, he reserved the rest to paint their boat and mend their now the work was done, and to morrow they must die. In order to gain greater confidence with the pirates, Capt.

Antonio Peloso informed them that he had picked up on the coast an English sailor, who probably had escaped from this vessel, and to-morrow, when they came off to breakfast, they should have him. Thus they parted for the night. On the morrow, the pirates, faithful to their engagement, came on board Capt. schooner to breakfast; at a signal given be and his crew rushed upon them and secured the whole that came off in the boat. After confining them, Capt.

P. manned his boat and went ashore, and took the two pirates who were guarding the two sailors, prisoners. There then was a scene beyond the power of pen to liberator and liberated rushing into each arms. The pirates and four fishermen are now safe in the Punta prison, and next week will suffer death. J.

TWENTY-SIXTH CONGRESS. On Saturday, June 27, the Senate did not sit. In the House the Speaker presented to the House a communication from the lion Wm. L. Storrs.

resigning his seat as Representative from the State of Connecticut. A motion was made to suspend the Rules for the purpose of taking up Lt. case, but it was lost. Mr Sergeant moved that the Senate bill, known as the Bankrupt bill, be taken up for reference and printing. Objections were made, and he moved the suspension of the rules, to enable him to offer the motion.

The House refused to suspend the rules to fc8 So, instead of two-thirds, there as nut a majority But it will be tried again Strenuous efforts will be made to pass the bill through the House. The House then entered upon a discussion of the Independent Treasury Bill, which continued until adjournment. Mr Pray tell our truckmen and carters what 2:1 egregious error they commit in using blinders on their horses. It is a strange custom, derived from England, where it is fast going out of use, and is almost unknown elsewhere. These blinders, or winkers, add a most uncomfortable weight to the headstall, which is necessarily much heavier and stouter for them they interfere sadly with the movements, amid hogsheads and bale-jjand lumber, where they need all their eyes to thread their way; the chain horses particularly, who go blundering about hoodwinked, could find their way easily, were they permitted to use their eyes.

I have been glad to see that several gentlemen have disused them on their gig harnesses; the un constrained, simple and elegant appearance of a fine horse without them, forms a strong contrast to those with them. The only reason given for them, that they prevent shying, is totally unfounded they not only do not prevent it, but, I believe, much increase it. It is true that there arc some horses whom it would be necessary to accustom to the sight of a carriage or chaise behind them, by tackling them in the stable two or three times but it ts believed that even this would be necessary in very few instances.

S. DISTRICT COURT. Sudden or pretended. A ntonk Jostnt, a Portuguese sailor on boaid of the Nantucket schooner Tileston, was brought up for an assault with intent to kill Jerry King, a German, and second mate of the Tileston. One afternoon.

Joseph rushed up on deck, and, without any known provocation, commenced an indiscriminate attack upon every one within reach. He struck at three of the men, and then threw his marline spike at the mate, but missed him. He next approached King behind, and struck him a violent blow with some cutting instrument which made a hole in hts car large enough to admit a finger, and fractured the skull besides. King remained insensible, from the effects of the blow, about tw'o hours. He supposes that Joseph struck him out of revenge, because he gave him a slap in the face, a fortnight before for some insolence.

Joseph did not seem to understand the business of being examined, but admitted that he had struck at some of the crew, but could not. or would not, give any reason for so doing. He was committed for trial at the next term of the Circuit Court. udge avis then adjourned the court till Tuesday next, for the trial of civil cases by jury. Extract of a Letter from an officer of the United States Artnv, to a friend in this city, dated Ferry, Florida, June IS, for Indian news, I presume you arc as tired of it as we are.

Within a few days we have heard of the capture of two or three warriors and killing as many more, together with a whilt man found fighting icitk them to be Cook, an escaped murderer from taking some eighteen Indian women and children, and we expect soon to hear of a more decisive blow struck. Both officers and men are constantly engaged in not only an arduous but hazardous duty, and in a climate ai this season of the year almost as fatal as the Indian rifle; and strange as it may appear, these defenders of eur rights, of fenceless and innocent women and children, receive less sympathy from a large portion of our fellow- citizens, than these poor The Charleston Alercury makes the following just remarks, in an article alluding to the Buckeye Blacksm who has deserted his honorable occupation. and become a vagrant sponter at the hard cider and log cabin stetvs What an insult is it to all the honest, industrious blacksmiths in the Union, that this loose vile buffoon should be paraded as the representative of their fraternity Their votes will resent the indignity.

In this way, historical representations might be given, suited to the day, and we might begin with those painted in the rotunda of the Capitol at apparatus of the first exhibition would answer for all subsequent ones with very trifling additions. ranklin SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT. A nert clerk srrorn into office the opening of the court yesterday morning, Chief Justice Shaw announced that Charles A.

Parker, associate clerk of the Supreme and Common Pleas, had resigned his office, and that Joseph illard had been appointed as his successor, and, after making the statement, he administered to Mr Willard the oaths of office. Mr Willard will retain his commission as Master in Chancery, the duties of which office he has acquired the reputation of having discharged with great fidelity and uibanitjr. Opinions were given affirming the veidicts in the following cases John F. Dyer vs. Otis Rich and others.

William B. Reynolds vs. Ocean Insurance Office; and Elihu Reed vs. Pacific Insurance Office. In the afternoon, the appeal of Samuel C.

kins the convict whose well-written defence in the Municipal Court attracted so much attention, was taken up and Mr Bemis, in behalf of Hopkins, maintained that the information against him as a was not sufficiently explicit in its allegations in respect to his fo, mer convictions. Austin Attorney-General, maintained that the information was drawn up according to former precedents, and that the objections relied on had already been raised and decided against by the Supreme Court. An opinion will probably be delivered on Monday. POLICE COURT An examination of the of onavan who was nearly beaten to death by some person, or persons, unknown, on the night of the 17th of June, was assigned for yesterday, but a certificate was received from his physician that he was not yet well enough to appear in court, and another postponement for eight days was obtained. ichael annon was brought np for giving Daniel Pitman, a stevedore, a most undeniable black eye, but in consequence of the absence of a material witness, the examination was postponed.

Gazette, tn alluding to the late nomination of candidates for the twenty-seventh Congress in that state, pays our old brother type, Air Reding, the following merited compliment: We are highly gratified at the nomination of our friend Reding, ed.tor of the Democratic Republican, as a candidate for representative to Congress. He is an industrious and intelligent of the ivorkin" men, and true to the principles of democracy as the to the pole.
