"The Erie Railroad War mm* tke Weet. From the motion of Mr. Hendricks in the Hoaae of Representative*, I am sorry lo see that the people of Indiana hare been deluded by the Sew York, Buffalo and Cleveland papera aa te lb* Dal are of *he railroad troubles at Erie, Pa* If the evidence wae not before me I eonld not believe that sneb utterly faJae statements eoald be given to the pubiie lo respectable papera. It moat be borne in in I ad that whatever may be the poeition of Erie in thla 'matter, aha la oppoaed by all the Influence of forty million* of capital, and by tbe intereeted representations of the preaa of large cities. W lib no meena of being heard bat through the limited circulation of her weekly paper*, were the angetlleally right, aha wonld have much difficulty In making the truth known against such infioenoee.

In theft ret inatanee popular Indignation waa «tolled against Erie, by giving oat tbe false tropraeaion, that *he waa eontendlng for aa Interruption of travel for no higher motive than te eauao •expenditure at the refreshment boasss. Aa, bow ever, th« war proooeded, It turned out that there were broad principles Involved Important not only to Erie, but to the Stats of Pennsylvania, and to 'the whole traveling and transporting community.

Principles which the railroad interest* were willing to buy out of the way by the expenditure of near ghalf a million of dollars for the benefit of Erie., This first petty trick should have excited the doubt of all honest men as to the truth of the subsequent! representations. Another deception upon the! public is, heading all notices of the proceedingsi Svllh the words "Mob" and "Riot", and thus forestalling lite popular prejudtoo by the use of these obnoxious terms. If the movement In the and ahould prove an illegal one, atlil a movement which goes on under the sanction of laws deliberately •eoactod montlia before the outrage which aroused "the people, a movement participated In by the entire population of a county and city. Church members of alldeoomiuatione— farmer*—mechanics lawyers—congressmen——jndges—clergymen-— mayor and cooncll»—sherlfls, risee to a higher dignity than that of a riot. Especially is more than a riot, when the highest court* of the State and General Government, even, where their preliinlnaty decisions appear, adhere to tha option of the people, actually sustain what they have done, and when the Government of the State authorises the use of the military to sustain their position. ..This I* no mob, no riot, and whatever ha* been done to resist the illegal action of tha railroads and prevent their violation of law, baa been done under the direction of proper ofliaere loan orderly and systematic manner. It Is true the annoyance to travellers la vary great, but Ita origin la with those who attempted to trample upon the lawa and iflghta of the community, and rendered the nnlllfi•cation of their roada a necessity of oslf-defeacs.

Without spending any words In showing the Illegal 'txlatence of both the Eastern and Wuotern roada coming Into Elrle, I will simply slate that one ••lists without uoharter and tho other by a violated charier, and proceed to show the interests involved. -1'' The question for Pennsylvania Is: shall the Railroad companies of Iwo foreign Stales make their .own independent aud differing guagee, and then not only force one of them upon Pennsylvania, but Interpose It aa a barrier between her oomtnert# .and Its market 1

The question for Erie Is: Shall a Railroad which^ by agreement, has obtained the relinquishment of tha public streeta and roads for one guage favorable to the lute reals of Erie, lay down a different guage Adverse to Its IntereatsT

The question far the public Is: Shall one Railroad run a inonopollsiug line along tha wi^ote Lake shore, forcing tra^a and travel upon It, or shall trade and travel from ono point have the choice of three unbroken guagaa to tha seaboard. This la a point of great Interest to tha Waat. If Brie apeleads all Waat of her have a choice of roatas. If tha Railroad succeeds tha Waat la al Ita tender mercies. Tha following fats will show hoar thaae .questions are involved la tha praaent controversy.

Ohio, Weet of Erie haa a railroad four feet Ua Jnohes wide. New York Eaatof Erie haa two nil* roads, one four feat tigkt an* UVimAu *od one tis JtH. It is therefore asaalfsat that at whatever point thaae gaagea meet there must ha a ibreak, wad It la also equally manifest thai tha forther Weet that break la the Isaa amoaat of proda•olng territory does It Interfere with, Pennsylvaala -therefore does not make and does not wish (aa 1 /klaely asserted) to make a break but finding it s&. 4sting by tha acta of other States, she proteets against 1U being placed Eaat of her and her market* .tribute upon her own products and thoao of all

Weat of her to foreign stockholders. If no other «»aaou than thla existed. It would be the duty of Pennsylvania if aha hold only one mile Instead of £fty upon tha Lake Shore, to avuil haiaolf of it to protect her self against such an uatjast Imposition. •But there are other Interest* Philadelphia and DatUmore, by tha Sanbury and Erie road Ma finding tbslt way to Erie. A road ia also Mag eon«tr«ci«d to unite Brio by a si* foot guage to tha Jfew York aad Erie road, and the Now York and £r!e bas permlsion to bring It* track without break to Erie, as also haa tha oantral read of fite ffcet JB inches, Now If the Control road Is permitted to ran tha Ohio goage over Pennsylvania, pant Jtar awa Imprveanaata, It givea the oontral a sseaepoly of trad* aad travel, bat tf tha pteoaat poeljtfon of Erie la maintained, Uada aad Havel oe»

Tbos creating aa naneesaary break at tha State Mae to tha annoyance ef trade aad travel in tha hope of larcing Erie to take np or permit to bo taken ap tha six foot track and accept the Ohio guage to her detriment. For two years this haa gone on, bat finding tbe Erie people firm thaae New York men came upon hereof! and endeavored despite of local laws and agreements to lay tha Ohio gaage. The authorities told them that if they did so tbe law required tho removal of tha road* Tbe attempt was made and the road was quietly and orderly removed. Soch ia the position of Erie but Harbor-Creek the adjoining township at tha East, has tbe same, and other cansee of complaint The 7tb eeetioa of tho charter of the road says that It shall obstruct, no street, lane, road, dwelling or grave yard, without the consent of tbe owner. Yet the road was laid contrary ta tbe protest of tho road cossmiasinars upon the bad ef a much used tarnplka in Its length.— When they took np the rails recedtly to narrow tbe guage, tbe Commissioner* warned them net to relay them and when they did so the Commlaslonera removed them. ..

First Marriage.

The following amusing sketch of "born in good luck." is said lo be from the pen of the I'aceliuus Samuel Lover. It is none the worse fur being a few years old:

Lady 0. was a beautiful woman, but lady was an extravagant woman. She was still single though rather past extreme youth. Like must pretty females, she had Uooked loo high anil estimated her loveliness loo dearly, and now, she refused lo believe fahe looked sa charming as ever. So no wonder she remained unmarried. Lady C. jhad but five thousand pounds iu the world she owed about forty thousand pounds so with alt with all her wit and beauty she got into the Fleet* and was likely to remain there. Now in the lime 1 speak of, every I lady had her head dressed by a barber, aud her barber was the handsomest barber in the city of London. Pat Philan was a great sdmirer of the fair sex, and where the wonder!—sure Pat was an Irishman. It is was one fine morning when Philan was dressing her captivating bead, that her ladyship took

rtnto

her bead to talk to him and Pat was I well pleased, for Lady C,'a teeth were the I whiteat, and her smile tho brightest in alt tbe world. I 'So you're not married Pat, says she 1 Divil an toob, yej hoAqt.'s ladyahip,' says I he. ^4*** 'And wouldn't you like to bo martiM!' the again asks. •Would a duck awtml* •Is there any one you'd prefer!'^ •May be. madam, says be, 'yen never h»ard of Kathaline O'Riley, down beyond

Doneraillef Her father is cousin to O'Donsghoo. whose own Steward is Mr. Murphy, the under agent to my Lord Kingston, and, •Hush,' says she,'sure I dont want to know who she is. But would she have you if you asked herl' •An, thin I'd only with I'd be after trying that same.*' J® •And why don*t youT •Sure Pen too poor,* and Pat heaved a prodigious sigh. •If 1 make yon rich willyou do as tell youf •Mills Morther! ysr booor, don't bo tantalamg a poor boy.

Indeed I'm not aaid lady C. 'So listen. How would you like to marry mo!' •An, iban, my l*dy. I beliovo tho Eiag of Russia would bo proud to do that aaeee, lava alone a poor divti like Pat Philin. 'Pbilin, if you will many me to-morrow TU give you a thousand pounds.' •Oh srattaboo! wailaboot sura I'm asad or enchanted by the good people,' roared Pot deaetog toond dm room. aa •But tbere are ooaditioaa^ said lady C. After tho first day of our nuptials, you moot never oec me egate.or otaisa mo tor your •tfc.'

She that,'osya Pw, Jar bo tad

boos ogling her ladyship most desperately. •Botreenembor Kathaboe 0*Ki)oy$ eith tho money lUgtvo yoo.you may go atd marrr her.* •That's thra«,* stfd h», *Stt th«« tho b^|amy!* 4li90MroMoor agaiast you/ aays hor ladyship. KWy mn«o»ber,yoo must like •a oath never to caH me yoor wife after tomorrow, and never go tafiisg afi tho story/

Weil, then,' aays abe, there's ton pound*—go and boy a license, aad leave tho same to mo,' and then she explained to boa where ho was to go, oad whoa he was to come, aad call that.

Tho next day Pat waa true to his appointment, and found two gentlemen already with her ladyship. •Have you got the license/' aaid she.« •Here it is„ my lady.' said he, and be gave it lo ber. She handed it to one of tbe gentlemen, who viewed it attentively. Then calling in ber two servsnts, she turned to the gentleman who was reading, •perform tbe ceremony,' said she. And sure enough, in ten miuutes Pal Philan was the husband, tbe legsl husband, of the lovely Lady C. •That will do,' says she to ber new husbsnd. as be gsve her a hearty kiss. 'Now giva me your marriage certificate.'

The old gentleman did so, and bowing respectfully lo the five pound note she gave him, he retired with his clerk for sure enongh, I forgot lo tell you that be was a parson.

Go and bring me the warden,' says my lady to one of her servants.^ ,* Yes. my lady,' says he, and presently the warden appeared.

Will you be kind enough,' says Lady C., in a voice that would call a bird off a tree, 'will you be good enough to send me a hsckney coach! I wish to leave this prison immediately.? •Your ladyship forgets,' replied he,'that you must pay forty thousand pounds before I can let you go.' 1 am a married woman. You oould detain my husband but not mo.'

And she smiled at Philan, who began rather to dislike tbe appearance of things. Pardon me, my lady it is well known you sre single.' '1 tell you I sm married.' •Where's your husband!' .There, sir!' and she pointed lo the astonished barber 'there he stands. Here is my marrisge certificate, which you can peruke at your leisure. Mj* servants yonder are witnesses to the ceremony. Now detain me, sir, one instant, at your peril.'

The warden was dumfounded, and no wonder. Poor Philan would have spoken, but neither party would let bim. The lawyer below was consulted. The result was evident. In half an hour Lady C. was free, and Pat Philan, her legitimate husband, a prisoner for debts to the amount of forty llioussnd pounds.

Well, sir, for some time Pat thought he was in a dreain and the creditors thought they wre still worse! The following dsy they held a meeting, and finding they were tricked, swore lhat they would detain poor Pat forever, But as they well knew he had nothing, and wouldn't feel much ashamed in going through the insolvency court, ibey made the best of a bad bargain, and let him out.

Well, you must know, that about a week after this. Paddy Philan was sitting by his little fire, and thinking over tho wonderful things he had seen, sure as death, the postman brought him a letter, the first he had ever received, whioh he look over to friend of his, or»e Rysn, a fruit dealer, because you see he was a great hand at reading writing, to decipher it for him. It ran thus-— r,i

Go to Doneraille and marr^ Kathaline O'Reilly. After the knot is lied I fulfill my promise of making you comfortable through life. But as you value your life and liberty, never breathe a syllable of what has passed. Remember you are in my power if you tell the story. The money will be paid to you directly on your enclosing your marriage certificate.'

Oh. happy Paddy. Didn't he start the next day lor Cork didn't he marry Kathaline and touch a thousand pounds? By the powers he did. And what is more, he took a cottage whioh, perhaps you know, is not a hundred miles from Bruffin, in the county of Limerick and faith he forgot his wife, clean and entirely, and never told any one but muself. under a promise of secrecy, tbe story of his marriage.

•A debtor's prisoa which wo believe Is now abolished.

WOMAN'S RIGHTS.—Klrwan in his work entitled "Men and Things as I saw them in Burope," gives the following account of the pragrass of "Woman's Rights" in Sardinia: "They were tunneling the Appenines for a railway from Turin to Genoa, which when completed, wilt be a great affair for Sardine, aad armies of women were engaged fn mating tbeee tunnels! With a pannier of peculiar construction, made to fit the baok, they entered tha tunnel at one aide, and emerged laden on the other side beot down like beasts of burden, they followed each other to the end of the embankment, where each turned round, there a man drew a pin, whioh let the bottoms fall out, and tho stone gravel and clay fell out of the basket. And hundreds of women were working In this way at this besiial employment! Lime-kilns in groat numbar line tha roads, and the women were quarrying tbe atones, carrying ihetn to tho kilns, and sending away the lime.*'.

THE TERM "LAOT."—Tho name lady is an abbreviation of tbe Saxon **looafday," which sign 1 Sea bread-giver. Tho minuoaa of a manor, at a time when afflaent famitiee resided constantly at their country maosiooa, was accustomed, oooe a week or oftener. to distribute among the poor a certain quantity of brood.

Badly managed cases sometimes cause the glanders otherwise, the glanders are not common in this part of the country it prevails most in the cold season, generally commencing in the fall Horse-ail is infectious, and very liable to occur, without infection, as is common to young horses, which do not go from home or come in contact with others that are infected,

SYMPTOMS.—Stoppage of the head, running st the nose, swallowing in the throat loss of sppetite. dullness sbout the eyes, genersl stupidity, snd sudden debility. Tbe symptoms are similar to those of a cold .'or the influenza in the human race. It often csuses a tumor under the jaw.

REMKDV.—E. Wood Esq., an intelligent correspondent of the 'Maine Farmer.' reoommends tbe following trestment: Take a piece of skin on the breast, and cut crossways through the skin, so as to make a hole suflioient to get in the fore finger, which put in snd skin downwards and crossways tbe length of the finger. Fill this bag thus made with cut raw onion then bleed, if the cough is hsrd and distressing, and feed with potatoes ir the animal can eat them— if not give gentle laxatives. Under this treatment he has never lest a horse or colt, and they bave seldom lost much flesh.

ANOTHER.—We have treated horses in tbe following manner with sucess Make a slow fire of old boots, shoes, rsgs, herbs, roots, dco. When fired, a little smother them, so as to make much smoke and steam snd then set a barrel without heads over ihe fire, and hold the horses head down in the barrel and smoke him well. This will produce a copious running at the nose, and he will be so well pleased, that he will voluntarily hold his head in the smoke. Continue this half an hour or more daily.— Meanwhile give bim potatoes and warm bran mashes, and gentle physio, if there be much costiveness, which the laxative food will not remove.

FURTHBFT TREATMENT.-—In addition to other remedies, if the case be severe, and snd the blood has become bsd put a rowl in the breast and if the swelling under the throat tends to superation, encourage it by applying emolient poultices or blistering ointment, and fomenting baths and when the swelling becomes soft and the mailer fluctuating, lance it. Blow snuff up the nostrils—keep the animal warm give warm soothing drinks: curry and rub him very frequently. Give a little walking exer cise in plessant weather, if the animal has strength to bear it without fatigue. Keep the head running and the bowels loose* and if the heat and fever abate, and the animal is poor, give tolerable nourishing food, continuing roots and mashes to keep the bowels in a good state.—Cole't Am. Veterinarian.

Sites for Orchards.

Intelligent oultivators hsve been long familiar with the faot that the peaoh crop more uniformly escapes the frost on bills, tbe wood ripens esrly and becomes hardy and the frost are not so sharp, although the cold winds may be more sensibly felt by snimsls and man. Wo bave long entertained ihe opinion, that by a selection of aspect, and the adoption of shelter, there is scarcely a country in the northern slates, where peaches might not be raised with considerable uniformity. By ^shelter, we mean shelter from sun or froxen trees, more than mere shelter from the cold.

A late number of the Granite Farmer furnishes some corroborating facts on this point whioh we condense for our readers. Chss. Richardson of Manch. N. H., who cultivates a fine garden, succeeds in raising the best peaches on a tree almost completely shsded 00 tbe south and oast from the sun, the roots body and branches being kept at a low temperature, while bis other trees was bsrren. The fine peaches which excited so much atteation at tho Horticultural Society's rooms, in that city, raised by A. C. Heath and O. P, Warner were from trees protected from tbe sun on tbe sun on tbe east and southeast by brick walls. A tree In Concord, on tho yery top of what is celled 'The Mountain.' haa borne abundantly, tbe best of peachos,lor twenty five years, stands to a v«ry exposed siiuatioa, and is surrounded every winter by snow banks several feet doep, which melting late ill the spring, keeps the fruit buds back till are tafe

Ha. T.—Te the Peapie of Iadiaaa* ThejuKsa of die Sugar oane grown In tropical climates, is about eight times as strong as tbst of Louisianna. and the yield of Sugar in proportion. Whilst 1500 lbs per acre and ?S gallons of molasses, is a large yield in Louisiana, in the tropics. 6000 lbs. of sugar and 300 ftallons of molasses te not unoommon. Humboldt says that in Mexico* near Vera Crux, on the best land tbere, double the quantity of Sugar can be obtained from the same space of ground that is obtained in Cuba. In some of the sugar growing countries 8000 lbs. to the acre have been produced, to that it will be piaiuly perceived, if it had ••free" entrance into this country, without this enormous tax of 30 per cent, INCVEASKO before it gels to the consumer—to ai least 50 pel oeat., sugar would come very cheap to us. To l» consistent in its policy adopted in 184C relieving t«a aud coffee from lax. Congress should take off Ukit tax, because the increased consumption of the first named articles, by the removal of the tax. has great ly increased ihe consumption of sugar.— Every family in this State without a single exception, consumes sugar. Assuming thai each family consists of five persons, each one will consume, in eome form, on an average, one pound a week, amounting to $6 lbs. a year. Now for this quantily. they pay, by the operation of this tax of 30 per ct., 818, 20, five dollars and forty cts. of which gctes into the pockels of the sugat planters, whereas, if this lax was removed, they would only pay 810.40, being a saving of seven dollars and eighty cents, a sum more than sufficient to pay the annuiil taxes of very many of the consumers of sugar. 1 have said this results from the attempt to force the culture of the Sugar Cane in a climate not suited lo its growth. This is the enormous lax we pay for this attempt— not the rich, but toe, the poor laboring classe.«. is that class who give the the Loui siana planters a bounty of more than thirty dollars on each hogshead they raise, as I have shown in number three, of these articles. We have paid them near three oentn a pound extra, for every pound they have produced in the last five years, and this out of our hard earning*, and for rio necessity of Government The mere cultivation of the Sugar Cane in Louisiana, is but little more trouble and expense than the cultivation of corn by good skilful farmers, ami which pays ihem a bounty on the thousands of bashels of thai most necessary article they employ their capital in raising!

By the Patent Office Report of I808, in an article furnished by Mr. DeBow, the author of ibe work "on the industrial resources of the South and West," I find at page 514 of the Report, in substance the following—•"that a capital of 8300 is required in the production of each hogshead of Sugar and barrel of Molasses of the value ol (say) 845 gross. "The expences of working an estate including wear and tear ofmscbitiery, have been estimated at 8?5 to ihe slave.— Sixty dollar $ would be a fairer esiimitle." He averages the product at five hogsheads to the hand. The present price of Sugar and Molasses at New Orleans, 4 cts. and SO cts.—-would give to each hogshead the value of §50 instead of 845. One slave can produce five hogsheads of sugar and 250 gallons of molasses of the value of 825 and on about four acres ofgrouuii—deduct 860 for the wear and tear of machinery and all other expenses, and we have 8190, as the clesr net profit on the culture of 4 acres of land ill sugar, stimulated by this bounty of 80 per cent, which, deducted, leaves 8133 as the net profit, equal to 833.25. profit on each acre, without this duty or tax. Nov lake 4 acres of our best farming land, culti vated in corn by ihe most approved methods and see how the_accouni stands. Assum ing that the four acres will yield 240 bush els ofcorn or 80 bushels of wheal 1 put down as the cost of raising corn five dollsrs per •ere, and of wheat five dollars, and that the corn will sell for 40 cts. per bushel, and the wheat for 80 cts. The accouul is then staled thus: 4 acres of corn 60 bushels per acre, 240 bushels at 40 oents per bushel, 887.00 80'°° .Mmm&mH v,al *76o° or nineteen dollsrs per acre. 80 bushels of wheal on 4 acres at 80 cents per bushel, 864.00 Deduct cost of raising 85 per acre. 20.00

We should like to know how much the editor gels for selling his soul to tbe devil of British tyranny. How a man can stand upon this continent, within a thousand miles of the United States, and be guilty of such servile alavishtiess, parses all comprehension:

The impolicy of sparing the lives of great sooundrels convicted of the mo»t heinous of crimes, treason and rebellion, is exemplified in the scandolous conduct of John Mitchel in New York. Had this villain been made to pay the penalty of his crimes like other traitors, instead of joying the clemency ol the British Govsrnnient he would not have lived lo ulier, in the city of New York, his blackguard al»u»j» against the gracious Queen who mercifully spared his lite, nor would his treasonable speec?* have been republished io the Reform Journals of Canada."

According to one of the anoit-nt uasges of the French monarchy, it was only when the Queen was encienie lhat she was placed on the right hand of the sovereign. The custom was restored by the present Emperor a few months Hgo, when the Empress Eugenie was in an interesting condition and it is consequently concluded that her msjesty is once more in a portion to hold out to Louis Napoleon an expectation of an 4ieirto his throne. It is also remarked lhat the Empress, contrary to her ordinary habits, goes to chase in a carriage, and not ou horseback
