We have received from Mr. Jones, (of the firm of Keir Jones,) a copy of the Mount Vernon (Knox County, Ohio) True Whig," of December last, containing the proceedings of meetings of citizens ol Kaox county, in relation to the Columbus and Pittsburgh Rail Road a communication, and also an editorial on the same subject. A circular statement of exports, imports, water power, Ike, fee, of Kaox county," is also published. The company was organized on the 11th of December; officers were elected, and sufficient stock subscribed and paid in to give the citizens of the the county control of the charter. They regard the charter as exceedingly advantageous, at it fixes no intermediate points between Columbus and the Ohio, nor above Stcubehvillc, and gives power to connect with any other road tending to Pittsburgh.
We clip from the proceedings of a meeting ofthe Directors, the following: The Company are not restricted in time, as to construction and completion, or prohibited the use of any portion of the roud, which Ihey may have completed, at any riven period. By aa amendatory Act, passed February 24th, 1S4S, it is provided that the Columbus and Pitts burgh Rail Road Company shall have power to connect said road with any other rail road starting from Columbus and tending in the direction of Pittsburgh, or commencing at the Ohio River within the State of Ohio, north ot toe town ol stcubenvitle, and tending westward." And further the said amendment repeals the loth section of the act to which it is amendatory, by which all right ot the Stale to charge tolls, under certain restrictions, is removed The commudicalioh to which we have above allu ded, is by a writer who styles himself A Men chast, teho 20 years ago bought alt his goods tit Philadelphia and Pittsburgh If it were not fur its length, we would publish it all, for the benefit of our citizens, as it contains much information in rela tion to the wealth and prosperity of the region ot country of which Knox county is the centre. We give an extract The Charter of this Company, granted by the Legislate of this State in 1846, authorizes the construction of a rail road from Columbus to any point on the Ohio River, north of the town of Steuben ville, which may afford the easiest, most direct or advantageous connection with Pittsburgh. We rejoice at the movement just made, as indicating a determination on the part of our citizens, to procure, as early as practicable, the advantages of aa eastern outlet for this immensely productive region. We regard a connection with the east, by way of Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, as of vastly more importance to this central portion of the State, than-any project which has as yet been presented for our consideration and if the importance of our position, the amount of our products and business ability, were properly un derstood, the could not fail, in our humble opinion, to attract attention, snd secure the location of the great Central routa, from those cities to the west.
Knox is emphatically the central county of Ohio, and the very centre of the wheat growing region of the state she possesses an industrious, enterprising and wealthy population, rapidly increasing in the latter characteristic and we do not hesitate to say that there is not an interior county oi equal area in the State, capable of affording as large an amount of business, both freight and passenger, fur a rail road, or possessing sa equal amount of never failing water power (easily improved) lor manufactories of any description while the is proverbial for health. Mt. Vernon it situated central between Newark on the South, and Mansfield on the North, snd hitherto the heavy exports of wheat, flour, corn, pork, and other products of the county, have been wagoned to, and contributed largely to swell the business statistics of those towns, without which they might have appeared comparatively inconsiderable. Let the Philadelphia and Pittsburgh Road make this place a point, extending these? west, south west, or both, and it will sol only secure the large business of the region through wh.ch it passes, but must reader both Newark and Mansiield tributary thereto for we hold the doctrine, that with a continuous rail road to Philadelphia (regarding the risk snd winter interruption of the north) we should be able to reach even Nw York and Boston, shorter time and distance, with greater certainty, and at less eipentc, than by the northern route. Front this point, too, the Pittsburgh Road would have a direct out-let to the Lake by means of the Sandusky Road to that city, and thence north-west, by otheriroprovement into Michigan, Wisconsin, and south, by the extension of the Sandusky road, toon to be comple ted to Newark and Zanesville, and there connecting teV navigation of "he Muskingum, atManetta.
with the slack water to the Ohio River To give our readers an idea of the hnsiness of Knox county, we quote from the report of a committee ap pointed to ascertain the value of the exports and imports of the county There are within the present limits of Knox county, 45 flouring mills, H2 saw mills, 14 carding and lulling mills, li woolen factories, 4 foundries, 4 oil mills, 4 distilleries, I wire factory, and at far at ascertained, 14 tanneries. The committee hove not had time to ascertain the increase per item of the several articles of export, but their investigation has satisfied them that the increase has been important upon all, and very great upon many of the staple articles, since 1S4. The imports for the year show sn increase of tonnage to amount of 363 tons or 726,000 lbs, for the town of Mount Vcrnoa aiune. Upon the supposition that the remaining towns and trading putts have increased their importations in a like ratio, the aggregate amount of merchandise imported during the year pist, would reach 3,531,250 lbs. The best data within our reach induces a belief that 10,050 barrels of salt base been brought into the county by merchants, traders and farmers daring the 'fer.

M. Dallas, Vice President of the I a i ted States, painted by that accomplished artist, Matrew F. Wilsos. Mr. W.
has been in thi city for tome time, and has taken the likenesses of many of our prominent citizens. So far as we have learned, he has rendered general satisfaction. The likeness of our townsman Alles KaAHEa, is an admirable work of art indeed, we might say, it is faultless. The features are life-like and natural. Grace and ease are imprinted upon every touch of the artist's pencil.
The living man almost seems tn breathe and speak from the canvass. Mr. Kramer may well feel proud of such an exquisite likeness. We understand that Mr. Wilson will remain but a shofttime in thit city, previous to his departure for the east, to fill engagements in Philadelphia and Washington city.
We would therefore advise such of our friends aa may wish to avail themselves or his pencil to call immediately Hi room is on Fourth street, opposite the Board of Trade building. Wall's Landscapes. We yesteiday had the pleasure of examining a couple of Landscapes, painted by our talented townsman, W. C. Wall, Esq.
They are both views on the Ohio river, in the vicinity of Brunot's Island, M'Kee's Rocks, They are decidedly tbe most beautiful sketches produced by Mr. Wall's prolific and gifted pencil. One of ihe paintings has been purchased by our friend Paulsos, who is a liberal patron of the fine arts. The other has not yet been disposed of; but we presume that some one of our citizens who feels inclined to encourage native merit and "home productions," will secure the possession of it We have fre. quently had occasion to notice favorably, the Landscapes painted by Mr.
Wall, and we take pleasure in again calling the attention of our citizens to his merits. He richly deserves encouragement and patronage. Whig Inttrnetlon from Washington. The Detroit Free Press says: Letters, we know, have been received iu this city from whig leaders af fVashington, telling their friends here that they must use all the mean in their power to prevent Gen.

Cass would be the greatest victory the whigs could achieve." aVaf Judge Eldred, of this State, has decided, that listening at a key-hole, though highly improper, and even a violation of law in man, is perfectly justifiable in a woman, owing to tbe natural curiosity of the sex.

VY are favored by a friend with the following extract from a letter written on the route to the gold region: Chagres, Pec. 31, 1848 We arrived here in good health, after a passage of IS days from New York. We found the Fal con with 200 passengers; every canoe and bungo occupied at extravagant prices; the nsnal price for one passenger and two trunks to Cruces $10, but they are now getting from $40 to 50. lrunks and baggage are strewed about the negro huts, and it is a perfect chaos for the Yankees, as ihey cannot understand the natives, who to man are negroes; there being but one white man rest ding here, the collector of the port, from Bogota Chagres, that now sounds so large, contains a- bout 150 thatched negro huts. We team that the Pacific steamer has engage 400 passengers between Valparaiso and Callao for California, and theie are 300 passengers already waiting on trie iHJimus.
It will not be difficult for you to cross the Isth mus; ome ith but one trunk and enough to make one muie load, 2M pounds in all; take a small canoe atone and the expense will be but $32 to Panama. You can leave this without the delay ol an bour. Uet a few biscuits and apiece of ham or beef for the road, as you will find nothing to eat on tbe way. It is believed here that some 3000 passengers will congregate at Panama, itnout any possibl way of gestiiig to California, so that those by Cape Morn will arrive first. Say to Mr.

It seems, that on the 8th of January, a young lady named Ella Looah, died, and was buried in this grave yard. A few days after, some of the members of the church discovered that the body was gone. Subsequently, informttion was made before Alderman Buckmaster, of flis city, and a warrant placed in the hands of officer Fox. Search was made, and on Tuesday a body was found in the dissecting room of Dr. Dickson, Federal street, Alle gheny city, which the friends rf Miss Logan thought they recognized.
Yesterday, a brother ot the Lec tor, Stephen Dickson, a carpenter, was arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the affair. After a earing, he gave bail in the sumo! J00, to appear and answer the charge. Ti other persons, nave been informed against, but have not been taken. This is a case of peculiar baruship. 1 he leelings the relatives of the young girl have been mangled hv the desecration of her grave.
There can be no excuse for such conduct, evea medical students any of this class have tikea 4he body, knowing the circ*mstances, they should be punished. But we have not heard their story. They must have subjects for dissection. How are they to get tbem According to common law, it it a Penitentiary offence to eshume a body under any circ*mstances and it it imnnsnlile to obtait them in a sufficient ibo it ii iinpaniaiv number in any other way than the one adopted in th last session thiscase.

For several days 'be Police officers have been busy fight and day, picking up thieves and stolen goods. Several have been com" mitted, and a few were discharged. Thev are of all colors, age and sexes. On Saturday evening the officers made a descent upon a house in Viigtn alley, kept by the well known Williams, and there they fount cloaks, coatt, shawls, Ac, which have been missed by various persons at different times during the past two weeks.

JT We don't like lo make a fun about little things, yet we sometimes find it necessary lo a word in self defence. On Tuesday evening we called at the Mayor' office to get the particulars of the arrest ol certain theives, and the recovery of some stolen good. Officer Glena said it was the desire of the Mayor and officer that the matter should be kept quiet, because publicity might baffle their plans.
This was all right and under such circ*mstances, we never mention police office business. But, yesterday morning two of the papers had tmpli-fied notice of the trantactiont. aVaTT A bag of Meal waa arretted by one of Ihe Mtyor't Police, yesterday, and brought up for sentence.

Extension of Bank Charters. Mr. Laibd, of Westmoreland, Chairman of the Committee on Banks, in the House of Representa tives, in this state, has addressed a series of interrogatories to the Cashier of each Bank in the Commonwealth, applying for a renewal of its charter, which are required to be answered under the solemnities of an oath. The interrogatories are very searching, and if they are answered without equivocation, we think that there will be but little difficulty to know the condition of the Banks applying for a renewal of their charters. There are powerful efforts now being made in this state, not only to renew charters which are about to ex pirebut to incorporate new Banks, in places where such institutions do not exist at present We' trust that the Representatives of the People, will have the moral firmness to reject these appl cations, however strong may be the appeals.
By gradually permitting toe charters of the exist ing Banks to expire, no wrong can be done to eith er the stockholders or the community at large At the principal commercial points, a limited number of Banks, sufficient to transact the business of the mercantile community, might be kept in existence, subject to the most rigid legislative scrutiny. There is no necessity for a bank in every petty village in the state. They may occa sionally afford relief to individuals, and aid them in their business operations but the wide-spread ruin to the community at large, resulting from a Bank explosion, more than neutralizes all the good performed by every Bank in the Commonwealth There is no doubt but that the discovery of the Gold Mines of Coliforcia will bring into circula tion an immense amount of the precious metals, which must take the place of the small note cur rency, issued by Banks and Corporations. Our farmers, mechanics and laboring men, can lay aside the "yellow boy'' for a rainy day, without the least fears of their depreciating Let Con gress authorize the coinage of small gold pieces, and let our Slate Legislatures prevent, by severe legal enactments, the issue of any more shin pi as ters, to rob the industrious classes of their hfrd earnings. Legislating Democrat sit of Office.
Mr. SwitTiriiDH, of this county, who ap pears to be the '-head arid front of whiggcry at Harrisburgh, this winter, has introduced a bill, enacting that from and after the passage thereof, "all former laws relative to the appointment Surveyor General and Auditor General be repeal ed, and the Governor of this Commonwealth be authorized to appoint said officers in the same manner as the Secretary of the Commonwealth is Under the plea of having the term of said offices expire with the term of office of Governor appointing them, Mr. Swartzwelder has introduced this bill but the clear undoubted object of tbat gentleman is (o legislate a couple of democrats out of office. If the offices named were tilled with whigs, it matters not to which party the Executive might belong, we would hear nothing of this bill of Mr. Swartzwelder.
1 would be very pleasant for Governor Johssto to dismiss a couple of worthy democrats, and ap point in their stead, men of bis own political faith some brawling, hungry, intolerant whigs, as a reward for their party services. The -whigs' never proscribe men lor opinion's sake'" oh, no They are pure patriots, and despise the low, dirty tricks of Verily, whiggery is the very embodiment of burr-buggery Ptpalar Lectarct. The last lecture of the course, by Prof. Stephens, in the Sixth Ward School House, was delivered on Tuesday evening, to a large audience, notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather. An additional lecture will be given this evening, at the same place, by the Professor.
His subject will be Astboxoxt; and he wilt illustrate it by splendid views from the Magic Lantern, using the oxy-bydrogen light. The people of the Sixth Ward deserve credit for the intense interest which they have manifested in the cause of science. Prof Stephens' lectures have been the best attended of any we have had since Silliman was here and they should be, for he deserves the entire patronage of an enlightened public. Adults who will go to the lecture this evening will only have a dime to. pay at the door, and children half that price.
This is an improvement on old customs, and the success attending it is significant. Orphan Asylum Soiree. This grand affair of the season, will take place on Friday evening. From all quarters, we learn that extensive preparations are beiog mace, by the beau tiful and the gay, to be in attendance, on that even, ing. They will, no doubt, reap a rich harvest ot entertainment, not merely from the plasurs of dancing themselves, but also from beholding the happiness of their friends.
The Mercy Hospital Soiree, last winter, was an honor to our city and there are many wl.o will retain recollections of that evening, with emotions never lo be forgotten. Hundreds danced who bad never danced before, to the exquisite music of Daniel M'Atfeeand his brass band. We are happy to say that the same excellent musician and bis band have volunteered their services on the present occasion. Alex. M'Clurg, so report aye, has also generously tendered the use of the Lafayette Assembly Rooms, for the evening.
From the arrangements made by the gentlemanly and energetic managers, we confidently say all will be A Democrat for Ton. The Philadelphia Sun, a whig paper, tells the following anecdote of Samuel Fegeley, one of the democratic members of the Pennsylvania Legisla. from old Berks: "Friends remonstrated with him upon leaving home, stating that he endanger ed his life by starting at an inclement season, in his state of health. His reply was, 'I may as well go as stay; if I go I may die, but if I stay, the democrats will be defeated, and that would err-tainlu be the death ol This is a spirit of fidelity wortbjr of the noblest cause." Who can wonder that Berks is the Gibralter of democracy, when her people have such an example before hem?.
