' The act lately introduced into our State Legislature, goes far to provide a remedy for a portion of the wrong whichlitts -- n sanctioned. Other provisiona migkd , , think,:!**l,*o misty inserted. We are decidedly lavorable to the principle aimed to be carried out butcannot see why it should not be made ) , to operate upon all branches of labor. The gretirdesign of the friends of this reform has been, to assert the doctrine, that an operative ought not to be required to labor more than ten bours--leaving. hits free. of course r to Work longer, if he should see fit to do se. The following is a copy of the proposed law:— AN ACT to regulate and iibriage the hours of Labor in Cotton, Woollen, Silk and Flax Facto -ries in the Commonwealtti of Pennsylvanra. Section That in all contracts for or relating to Labor in the aforesaid Ficiories, Ten Hours of actual Labor shall constitute . . a days work; and no person shall be holden or' required to perform more than Ten Hours in ani, one day, or sixty! hours any one secular wee 4. • Section 2.—That if any employer or owner of such aforesaid Factories,eruplojing any minor more than Ten Hours in any nee day, or sixty hotirs io any one secular week, shall be adjudged to pay a penalty of Fifty Dollars; on4 i trelf to the party thus employed, and the other half to the Common wealth, to be recovered as other debts are reeove. table. Section 3 .—That no minor shall be admitted as a Worker into any of the sloiesaid Factories, un der the age of ten years, after the first day of July in the present year.

Many questionsof vital importance will come before thit body for its ct4isideration; durtog the present session of Conga,. War exists be tween this country and Mexico; Congress has de claret by an almost unanitnous; vote that this war was commenced -by the act itf Mexico." The administration is advancing theriational honor and character, by conduc:in,g the war in 4 thorough and energetic manner, while at every step the olive branch of peace is extended to the enemy. They have rejected all terms of peace heretofore offered The vigorous prosecution of theiwar on the part of our government, is more or lest Opposed by a very respectable portion of our felloW citizens,.and the enemy will, undoubtedly. continue to reject our pn.ffered terms of peace ..until it is ascertained whether that opposition will gam the ascendancy in this republic. The voice ed . lowa, therefore should be heard, and her true Sentiments felt, in the Senate of the United States.+Under such con siderations, it is believed by the executive, that the duly of electing United States Senators, according to the provisions of the constitution, will be by you speedily and harmoniously rfumaetl." Appointment by the Ooreinar. The Pennsylvanian, of Tuesday, 'says, "Benja. min Champney,s was re-appointed - Attorney Gene. ral of the Commonwealth, on the day of the In. auguration. His commission was presented and read in the Supreme Court yesterday, and the oath of office administered by the Chief Justice. The commission was subsequently read in the Court of Oyer and Terminer and gander Sessions; and David Webster, Esq., was re-appointed assistant. Judge Champneys, wi need acarfrly remark, is a lawyer of eminent attainments, and a man of un impeachable integrity—the very, qualities which fit him fur this high position." nEvissum. COMXIStIONER. We learn (says the Pennsylvanian.) that Find ley Patterson, Esq , a gentleman of high repute tion, has been appointed Revenue Commissioner from the 10th Judicial district composed tit the counties of Westmoreland, Arinstrong ,Cambria, and Indiana. This is a most capital selection. James B. Mei-shall, Esq., of Erie, has been ep pointed Revenue Commissionenfor the Judicial district composed of Erie, Venango and Crawford counties.

Your; &c., Correspondence of the Morning Poit. HAIIIIIIIIIOIIO, January . 24,1848. " What lovely weather!" is now the exclama tion that greets one from every friend be meets; and in reality the four or five days past have been such, as to warm the hearts of .even our wise and sage,like legislators, who, after the busineu of the day is over, troop forth to gulp in the delicious mountain air, and no doubt also to catcb a glimpse of the many beautiful faces that meet them at , every corner In truth, it is something to be a' .legislator. „ Old, weather-beaten fellows, are smiled upon moat bewitchingly, and thciugh their 'hearts be as dry as their looks, stilt, the ladies flutter around them, drinking wisdom from their lips, while many a good-looking young fellow, like myself, is doomed to live in hopeless expectancy, "awaiting for the look that never smiles." Who rould not be a legislator The name_ is;every thing; for, take them .out of the halls of legisla iion, sod they ate the commonest of the common; with nothing to distinguish them from the " igno bile vulgua," but a self important look,that smacks of Wisdom. There area great many young mem. re in the Ifouse, many of them not mush over iventy.four; and in this respect the House is dur tiedly superior to that of last year—the members of which were mostly of an advanced age, with out its consequent advance of intelligence; and, indeed, as it is, there is not too much of the latter' commodity-411We more would he of considerable advantage, The Act abolishing the Revenue Roan+ of Corn missioners has passed the " Senate finally, and will also pass the House, unless there be a decided ehange in the sentiments of the members; for %Olen it was brought, up, on Saturday last, it would have been disposed of, had nut the hour of adjourn ment arrived. The friends of the abrogation of the death penalty are increasing everywhere in number and in zeal; and I was indeed pleased to find that, in the discussion of the resolution asking the Judi ciary Committee to enquire into the expediency of wiping away the death penalty from our code, all the well•informed and talented members of the }louse we're in its favor; and uPon division it was found that the advocates of the old law had a bare Maj rority of sixteen; a great change in three or Aur years, when the majority . was from eighty to ninety — showing,:conclusively, that it will not be long when this barbarous law, which the inhuman. ity of our ancestors has saddled upon us, *ill be folvver banished from our statutes. As usual, there are a number of divorce petitions alvady presented ; but I think , there wilt be but few granted. The evil has been increasing ao fast Mit the Povernor was constrained, in his Jest annual message, to call the attention of the Legis latitre to the fact ; but, notwithstanding , his veto wars put upon twelve or fifteen bills of equivocal justice, they were all passed by the constitutional majority—,this war done by a Whig, Legislature, through a mere spirit of contradiction.
