We will insert none without the name of the author being, first made known to us, and when' inserted, must always be taken as expres sive of the views of the writer, and not the editor of this paper, unless the views so expressed are ed itorially remarked upon and approved. 120' The):lemocratic Congressional conferees of the district composed of the counties of Westmore land, Bedford and Cambria, met at Johnstown on the 13th inst., and after several unsuccessful ballot ings, adjourned until the morning of the I ttth, when 1 the Hon Jon MANN, of Bedford, was nominated as the candidate of the democratic party of that dis trict for Congress. • The Journal of Saturday contained a cornntm nication over the signature of 'Anti Clarion,' from which we clip the following: "Now, Mr. Editor, it is well known that Mr. .M . Candless went to Washington for no such pur pose, but that on the contrary, he is now in that city, as /he Counsel of orrtain Sloth holders in thr Pillsburgh and Copper Harbor Mining Company, and also to represent his otrn interest as a Stork holder in the "Chippewa Copper Company." The above is false. Col. Mrandless is not now. and never has been, "the Council of certain stock holders in the Pittsburgh and Copper Harbor Min iag Company." We have no means of knowing stliether Col. Mrandless had private business to 'attend to at Washington city, or not, nor is it ma terial, but we do know, and can prose the fact too, by men of high character, who differ with him in politics, that he has been exerting himself to the utmost, to defeat :411:ay's bill, or have it so modi fied as to make it acceptable to Pennsylvania. with the great importance of encouraging indus , trims and worthy men to .:ettle,upon the public lands, have for many years. as is nen known, ad vocated preemption rights in favor of actual set tlers, and such reduction. of price as would place them within the reach of the poor of the country, and enactments prohibiting their sale in large tracts to mere speculators.' The land question is again before Congress— the Graduation Bill as amended by the House ,‘, of Representatives, is now in the hands of the Corn mittee on Public lands in the Senate. The sub ject is certainly one of great importance, and we hope will receive the most careful investigation. We have given the subject some reflection, perhaps not leo much as we should have done, in view of its confessed magnitude, but have found no difficulty in forming an opinion as to the duty of those char ged with the responsibility of legislating upon the question. We sincerely believe that the interests of the whole people would be best promoted by grantingto every man producing evidence of occu pation and impmvement —that he is the head of a family, and destitute of real estate, a small tract, say one hundred and sixty acres, free of charge; or if; in view of the wants of the Nation al treasury, an amount sufficient to defray the ex penses of surveying and issuing patents, &c., was required to be paid at the time of issuing title pa pers, it would not have a tendency, we think, to retard the settlement of the Public Lands. The public domain, would, under such an arrangement soon be all in the hands of persons interested in its cultivation and improvement, and of course the wealth of the nation would be increased, and the happiness and prosperity of thousands secured be yond peradventure. The price of the lands we regard as a miner con sideration—every inducement should be offered to the people, consistent with justice, to settle upon and cultivate the public domain. Instead of quarrelling about whether the price shall be one dollar or fifty cents, let Congress pass a law consonant with the views above indicated, and we have no doubt the prosperity of the nation will be promo ted. Every-improvement made, it is obvious, will notonly add to the aggregate wealth of the nation, but will also place upon the list another name taxa ble for government expenies. In truth, in every point of view in which this subject can be properly considered, ,it is important that the National domain should be settled upon, as speedily as pos sible. We sincerely hope. therefore, that those charged with the duty of legislating upon the matter, will give this view of the subject full con sideration. _ Such a disposition of the lands we believe would be satisfactory, to the people. The people of the states and territories in which the lands are situa ted, should certainly favor such a disposition of them as would tend rapitly to increase population, mprovements and wealth. The people of the mid dle or eastern states certainly cannot object to the proposed disposition of the lands, because the increased demand for the products of their Factories, Forges, and workshops, would keep pace with the augmentation of the population of the western or agricultUral States.• U.

This process is repeated until the receptacle is filled, wheu once more seizing the edge of the dish in her teeth, this extraordinary brute waddles grunting offnp town ; with her ears laid back, and the white of her eyes rolled out occasionally, as if to warn any inquisitive cur of the propriety of keeping a res pectable distance—finally disappearing in one of those unknown and dubious alleys that lead down towards Centre street.—lt is supposed that the pro ceeds of the hunt are afterwards shared with her extensive family; and that the sagacious animal has adopted this method to save her little ones from the constant annoyance of the dogs and unruly urchins who congregate remarkably in that classic neighborhood- DRAT!! ON TILE RAILISOAD.-A lad about 15 years of age, named John Carpenter, whose pa rents reside at the corner of Schuylkill Sixth and Callowhill sts., says the Philadelphia Pennsylvani• an, was killed on the Germantown Railroad, near Nicetuwn Lane, on Tuesday evening., by being run over by a train of cars laden with stone. From all the circumstances of the case, it would seem that he labored under some physical disorganiza tion, attributed by his mother to his having been poisoned, and that he threw himself under the train, having in the morning declared to his moth er that he would kill himself. It appears that a short time before the catastrophe took place, he was seen by a lad named Cole, near where be was killed, and desired the latter to shoot him, and stated that he was diseased and should not come near him. The train of cars passed upon the road without any motil e power, and the breakman on seeing the boy running down the hill towards the train, cried out to him to take care, which no tice he heeded not, and before the cars could be stopped, the train had passed oser him. his im pression is that he did not fall, but voluntarily threw himself upon the track. The body was brought to the Railroad Depot late in the evening, and an inquest held upon it by the Coroner. The verdict of the jury did not expre;s any opinion as to the volition of the deceased, and entirely excul pates the breakman from any censure. .N.i.vAr..—We learn from the N. Y.

From the Washinston Union We'd Slates Srnate. Mr. Cameron, of Pa., presented set eral petitions from miners and laborers employed in the coal mines of Schuylkill county, against the passage of the new tariff bill. He said the persons signing the-e, papers were men who work by the day or by the ton, for a specific compensation. The busi ness of their lives had Leen connected with the coal operations. They were intelligent and sensi hle men, and were necessarily acquainted with the subject. They say that the passage of the bill now berme the Senate mill destroy their business, shut up their coal pits, and bs.ar their families, These men speak of their own interests; they give facts, and they cannot believe that the Senate of the United States will do them this great wrong lintentionally, if its members can be made to un derstand the subject. Mr. C. said he was not an old man; and yet, in his early manhood he had passed through what is now called the coal region of Schuylkill county. Then it was entire wilderness—the land so barren that scarcely a blade of grass would grow upon it—with but one solitary town upon the wayside; distant many miles from another habitation.—' Now, in this desert has sprung up a city and many villages. The region contains a population of 10,000 people, all prosperous, thriving and happy— with school homes and churches, stores and mann- I factories. There is now ins c , ted there over $30,- 000,000—with 50 miles of railroads running thro' the ravines of the high mountains, connecting the daThrent mines—with fifty miles more of rail• I road running under the earth; that a railroad con-I nects this region with the port of Philadelphia.' one hundred miles distant. and that, at that distant I point, an average of one hundred ships a day are now employed in carrying abroad the coal which these laborers bring from the bowels of the earth. These people consumed last year $901,000 wor th of agricultural products 'Lawn from distant and morefertile regions. They consumed also $1,738,- 000 worth of foreign and domestic merchandise. Of lumberand timber from abroad they used more than $30.000 worth, and they pay annually to the owners of the mines a yearly rent of over $300.- 000. In the hope that some attention would be paid to the interests of these meritorious people, Mr. C. moved. that the petitions be referred to the Corn. inittee on Finance. Mr. J ' lrcDuffie moved that the petitions be laid npon the table; which ww. not agrretl to. Mr. Cameron then renewed his motion to refer the Committee on Finance Mr. Spright opposed the reference. The tariff bill was not before the committee, and nothing would be gained by the reference of the petition. Mr. Cameron replied. He said he wished the petition referred, in the hope that the subject would undergo some deliberation. The bill had been re ''fused a reference, contrary to all the rules of legis lotion. While it was in the other House, and since it came here, the Capitol had been beseiged by men holding high places under the government; and there seemed to be a determination to hurry it through this body with an indecent haste, which prevented all reflection. He had yet found no member of the body who was willing to say that this bill was a proper one. It was called a rev enue bill; and yet no honorable Senator would say that, if he had the making of a bill, he would make such a revenue bill. It was said that manufactu rers had come to the the scat of government since the introduction of this bill. It might be so; and had they not as good a right to look after their in terests, as these high officers of government, who had surrounded the Capitol with their influence to carry a measure that must destroy the labor of the country? He trusted in God that the day would never come in this country when the people of eve ry grade would not be permitted to come here, and make known as freemen might, their wants, and explain their interests. Ile trusted that the bill would be referred, and that there yet would be some reflection, some deliberation, before thecoun try would be driven to the verge of ruin. The question was then taken on the motion to refer, and it was adopted—Yeas 21, Nays IL THE WAREHOUSE STSTT.3I Mr. Dix moved that the Senate should resume the consideration of the warehouse bill. Mr. Rusk said that a short bill in relation to the Texan navy had been made the special order for 12 o'clock, and that if the warehouse bill was now taken up, it would be likely to interfere therewith. Mr. Dix hoped that the senator from Texas would allow his bill tobe passed over until tomor row, in order that the warehouse bill might be disposed of. The honorable senator from Dela ware, [Mr. J. M. Clayton.] had been interrupted in his remarhs, and it was desirable that he should now be allowed to proceed, and conclude before the special order fur 1 o'clock should arrive Mr. Rush assented to the postponement unti to-morrow; and The Warehouse bill was then taken up; the question being, "Shall this bill pass?" Mr. J. M. Clayton then resumed and concluded his remarks in opposition to the bill. Mr. Ilunlington said that he did not intend to renew the discussion on this bill. On dormer days he had stated fully his objections to it, and had proposed amendments, some of which had been adopted, and which deprived it of a portion of its obnoxious provisions. Still, he was of of opinion that the bill in its present form, is unacceptable to a great portion of the people of this country, and is deemed by them to be, as he bad no doubt it would prove to, be, prejudicial to their essential interests. He considered the bill as one of the 'auxiliaries of the proposed tariff and sub•treasury. bills, and designed to bear apart in promoting the same objects.. And as he believed that the bill, should it becothe e. law (t he foresaw it would) - , would, in its results, prone beneficial only to a few rich capitalists, and mainly to foreigners and-their factoA and deleterious to - Amen= merchants, mechanics, and mnufaaturers, and .to the labor', commerce, shiliping, and other important interests of our own country ; he was desirous of recording his rote against it; and to effect that object,•ho rob- „ .~ ,a~- :_~q. ved that the - " ( I"sgbn be' . take-4' ti p the , Yeas and lair.

The reasons upon which that...opinion has been founded are that I believe tfiat a well regulated warediouse sys tem dcies giVe considerable facilities to the foreign commerce of the country_ It has been s 6 represen ted by the merchantile interests imifoitnly for thir ty years. The objection„againstir, principally re lied on now, is, that it may interfere, or is likely to interfere, prejucially with the domestic industry of the country, by creating an accumulation of for eign commodities, always ready to come into the market. I agree there issomething in that:argu ment Another objection is, that. it is connected, with other measures, to which others and myself, are entirely opposed. And I agree 'that there is something in that arguritent. I wish it had been made to succeed rather than to precede the decision of the Senate upon the tariff. But nevertheless, my opinion is, that it should rather be an object to protect the domestic industry of the country by lay ing protective duties upon such articles as are menu factured at home, rather than by obstructing the for eign commerce of the country, or withholding from it such facilities as may make it more and more extensive; and as this bill provides that the, goods shall remain in store but one year, I do not appre hend any such accumulation for so short a period as other gentlemen are inclined to fear. As every advantage of the bill is open to the use of the American merchant, and with the same great fa. cilities as the foreign importer, I am, upon the whole, inclined to give this system an experiment. If it be found prejudicial, we can get rid of it. The question was then taken on the passage of the bill, and resulted as follows: Yeas.—Messrs Allen, -Ircher, Ashley, Atchison. Atherton, Baghy, Benton, Perrirn, Breese, Bright. Calhoun, Cass, Chalmers, Colqaitt. Dickinson,Dix, Fairfield, Hannegan.

January 15, 181 G Mr. Webster. in conformity to a promise made yesterday, introduced a written statement for the purpose of showing that the present hill for the modification of the tariff will not produce any thing near the sum of twenty eight millions. In the course of his remarks, he said he would not be deterred from pursuing the course he has marked out for himself with regard to pe'tit'ions, by any remarks of the °Union, - charging him with a de sire to create a panic. After the presentation of suilry petitions agaios the present hill. Mr. Lewis. from the finance corn rnittee, reported back the Treasury Note bill with out amendment. It was considered as in commit tee of the whole, and then postponed till to-mor TOW. Mr Hannegan then called up the resolution for an adjournment on the 20th ofJoly: 31r, Turney moved to substitute the 10th. of August Mr. Ilannegan acceptssi the, modification. Mr. Lewis opposed the fesoluilon,• and moved that it be laid on the table, After some remarks from Messrs. Sevier. Cal houn, Cass and others, the motion to lay on the ta ble was rejected. The resolution was then passed by a vote of 30 to 10. 'After some debate on the Texas bill, the con sideration of the tariff bill was resumed. Mr. Davis having the floor, spoke at great length in opposition to the bill. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. M . Kay, from the committee on Ways and Means, reported a bill making appropriations for the following objects: • For erreareges for pay and mileage of members of Congress. $150.700. For expenses of the delegations of Indians now here, from and back to their houses, $6l- 5 10 For fulfilling treaty with the Kansas tribe, $lO,, 000. For other expenses attending treaty. $3,000. The bill was twice read and referred to a corn mittee of the whole. Mr. McKay, from the same committee, also re-' ported a bill to continue in the public service nu- Imerous clerks and other officers of government. the authority for which has expired. It was twice read and committed. Mr. Cranston presented resolutions of the Legis lature of Rhode Island, expressing the gratitude of that State to Gen. Taylor. They were read and laid on the table. On motion of Mr. Kauffinan,the post office rom. mittee were directed to inquire into the expediency of providing for a free post office for the use of the army. Mr. J. R. Ingersoll introduced a joint resolution which passed, authorizing the President to cause medals to be struck from the trophies of Palo Alto and Respea de la Palma, for distribution among the soldiers. The House then went into commitee of the whole, and considered the bill appropriating $ll,- 700,000 for the expenses of volunteers. The amendment of Mr. Davis, providing for the pay of those volunteers who were called without authority of law. Several other amendments leaving teen rejected the bill Was reported to the House without amend ment, and read a third time and passed by a vote of yeas 160, nays 4. The joint resolution of the Senate to adjourn on the 10th August was taken up. Mr. Drumgoole moved to lay it on the table. Lost, The resolution was then passed without a di vision. The House then went into committee on the bill providing for the pay and mileage of members, the expenses of the Indian delegations, and other purposes. After some rather undignified proceedings, evi dently intended to perplex the chairman, Mr. Wentworth, the committee rose without accom plishing any thing, and the House adjourned. A fire broke out at Nantutket on Monday after noon, and continued raging, .with unabated fury, until Tuesday. There seemed no method of stop. ping it then, as about two doten houses had been blown up without that effect. Nearly two hun dred houses—the best part of the town—were in ruins. An extra slip from the Nantucket Warder, office, dated " Tuesday, July 14, A. M., says: The town presents a scene of devastation that language cannot describe. The whole square of building bounded by Main, Centre. Broad and Fe. decal streets, is in ruins, and nearly all the buildings opposite those which formed the square. Trittity Church is now in flames. All the buildings on North Wayne street as far as Aaron lNlitchell's, (inclusive,) all the buildings on Main strreet from H. Riddell's to straight wharf. .oti Union street as far as the building oc cupied by the town officers inclusive. Washing ton street as far as Capt. J. H. Pease's inclusive. Dr. Ruggle's house on Orange street, was blown up, which arrested the flames ht.that point. The aggregate loss is at present incalculable.— Many rumors are afloataf injnry received by indi viduals, but, they are so vague, the whole town is in such confusion, that it is utterly impassible to arrive at the truth. We are at this moment told that Lib one has beets seriously:hint. The Inquirer and Mirror printing offices ire both destroyed. We can give but a hasty - account of this dreadful Calamity. - It is not fashionable now-a-days to say a man:is tipsy, but that he haS"get a brick in kis hat." ~.,.
