THE GOVERNMENT LOAN.
The opposition press are just now making a
great clamor about thefilteen million loan asked
by the National Administration, to defray tin
expenses and carry on the operations of Govern
ment. fn their fiery zeal to make capital a
gainst a Democratic President, they forget that
the sin which they lay to (he charge of the
Administration, lies at their own door and is im
putable entirely to the conduct of their own par
ty. It was their own blind folly that plunged
the Government into the debt from which it is
now trying to recover itself. It was their own
extravagance and peculation that hung the mill
stone around the nation's neck. We can "item
the bill"' for the gentlemen, it they desire it. To
wit It was an opposition House of Representa
tives, (in the thirty fouith Congress) that spent
$300,000 in electing a Speaker: It was that
same opposition House of Representatives that
in IS.ob prolonged the sitting of Congress, at an
enormous expense, merely to carry on a fruit
less discussion of t'he slavery abstraction. It
was that same opposition House of Representa
tives that increased the pay of Congressmen to
three. thouxand dollars per session It was that
same opposition House of Uenreo-* ; "iini,
. cost to trie Government • - **-•••
mittee to Kansas to investigate difficulties occa
sioned, as has been proved time and again, by a
society acting under the auspices ot the opposi
tion: and it was that same opposition flouse of
Representatives that caused the bulky Report
of that same Kansas Investigating Committee
to.be printed, and scattered over the Union, at an
immense out lay of money on the part of the Gov
ernment. To these and other acts of the opposi
tion, is to be attributed the late increase of our
National debt, and, consequently, if a loan must
be resorted to,the opposition who brought about
the necessity for that loan, is the party to be
blamed, and not the Administration which is
trying to maintain the honor of the nation bv
honestly meeting its creditors.
Put, notwithstanding the extravagance of the
opposition House of the last Congress, a prudent
and energetic Administration, like the present,
would soon have succeeded, under ordinary
circumstances , in cancelling the liabilities of the
Government. The whole world, however,
knows that during the last eight months, the
business of ties country as well as that of Europe
and other civilized countries, lias been in a crip
pled and inert condition. The financial panic
of last Fall a fleeted our Commerce to such a de
gree that all importations ceased and all inter
national traffic was suspended. As a conse
quence of this, tiie influx of revenue immediately
slackened, whilst tiie efflux of lunds from the
Treasury, owing to the pressure of panic strick
en creditors, was greater than ever, fs it to be
wondered at, therefore, that the national coffers
aie empty and that the Administration is com-
J 'iwhrvojfl OUI
Again, we have the Mormon wai
hands, which is costing us a heavy sum of money
Nevertheless, the safety and honor of the nation
demand that this war shall be vigorously prosecu
ted and that the rebellion in Utah shall be
quelled at an early 'lay. How is the President
to do this u itti an empty Treasury How is
Ihe army which is to subdue the Mormons, to be
sustained without money ? Whenever the
opposition answer this, we shall say nothing
further against their animadversions npon the
Administration for desiring a loan. Meanwhile,
we would suggest that, perhaps,if the opposi
tion in the last Congress had been a little less
given to heaping unnecessary expenses upon
the Government, there might now be funds in
the Treasury sufficient to carry on this Mormon
war and further, that, perhaps, if Mr:. Fii.l

A NEW ITS ION PARTY.
The leaders of the various factions that com
; pose tlie opposition to the Democratic party in
! this State, are once more maixeuvering to (use
i .
(heir different fag-ends together, in ihe vain
hope that by so doing they will be able to suc
ceed at the coming Fall election. The pat tint
ism ofSwooju: and others of the "Straight \-
imricans" ho s) vehemently denounced the
Brack Republicans last year, has oozed out at
their fingers'ends and they are just now busily
engaged in selling out tlie "Straight American
organization to the very party whose creed they
profossed to hold in litter abhorrence. Their
appetite for the loaves and fishes has overcome
tin ir respect for principle and they do not hesi
fa!e to array themselves under the I.lack banner
at which they have so often pointed the finger
of scorn. How can they ask the men who have
hitheito acted with them,believing them honest
in their leadership, to go with them to the ranks
jof the Black Republicans, whom they have for
years opposed as enemies to the Constitution and
tlie Union? How can they call upon their
followers in Bedford county to join the men
who sacrificed Fillmore in order to secure the
: election of Fremont ? They cannot doit, unless
they are lost to i very feeling of shame and
| every sense of honor and self respect. They
; cannot do it unless they believe their party to
be composed of men who will blindly follow
; wherever they may lead.
If"Swoorn and the other "Straight Ameri
! can" leaders, imagine that they can transfer
th' ir organization to the ranks of the Black Re
publicans without any Rouble, we can tell
them that their imaginations are grierously at
fault. There are hundreds of men—national,
| Union-loving men—in the "Straight Ameri
j can" organization, who will never act with any
j such sectional party as the Black Republican,
and who are ready to come into the Democratic
j ranks whenever the issue shalf be between
' Black Republicanism and Democracy. There
are "Straight Americans" of this sort in Red ford
| county men who once were the flower of the
Whig party—men who never will unite with
| any political organization that like the Black
| Republican, ignores the principle of nationali
ty which always was the basis of Whig plat
forms. The four hundred men who* last Fall
voted for Isaac Hazlehurst, in opposition to the
i Black Republican Wilmot have thus tar shown
themselves to be men of principle, and we do
not believe that they will follow any F ader to
i the ranks of the Black Republicans and thus
i acknowledge that they did wrong in supporting
Mr. Hazlehurst. Such men as John M'-Vick
; icr, of Harrison, John Blackrurn, of St Clair,
I CiiAßr.e.s Stukicy and James Carnixi., of
| Monroe. Michael Lirrz, of Snake Spring, think
i and act for themselves and will not change their
! political coat with every idle partv breeze.
| The same trick which the "Straight Ameri
j can" leaders are about performing now, was
| tried by Fr. Jordan K. Co., in IS5(>, and yet
tiiere was a respectable number of "Straight
j it was tried again but with worse success than
'before. Iri 185S it is to be tried once more,
but by different operators, and it remains to Ik>
seen whether this last effort of the Black Re
i publicans to force the "Straight Americans"
into their ranks, will terminate successfully.

The Somerset Democrat , of last week, urges
; the nomination ol Judge Kirnmell as the Demo

FROM WASHINGTON.
[Correspondence ol the Bedford Gazette.
W >-lil.N', 1 ON, • I N'' 7, IS.fS.
hi my last li tter to you I took occasion to
reler to the TARIFF question, and expressed
the opinion that the opposition to the Democrat
ic parly in Pennsylvania would attempt to re
vive the old issue of "protection to American
manufacturers." Now, to show the inconsist
ency and great want of sincerity ot the oppo
sition, it may he well enough to call to mind a
little bit ol history connected with this subject.
F.very one will recollect that w hen Mr. Polk's
administration carried tire taritl of *M>, the op
position were loud in their condemnation of the
measure, predicting that it would not yield a
revenue ot over fiheen millions, and consigned,
by a war of words,to eternal infamy, the Hon.
David U'ilmol, who was tlie only Democratic
member (torn Pennsylvania who voted for the
bill. Passing by the tact of this party giving
their undivided support to Gen. Tax lor, a free
trade southern planter, I will refer to another
circumstance of later date. Notwithstanding
the Hon. David Wilrnot, was an avowed free
(rade man, and had supported the tariff of '46
because that measure approached nearer his
views ol free-trade, tiiis mongrel [arty actually
selected him as their candidate fur Governor in
|S.">7! Did ever a set of men so stultify them
selves;' i have not done vet, however. In
I N/7, this party having a majority in the lower
House of Congress, advocated and passed a bill,
r■•[ rted by Mr. Campbell, chairman of the
C mmittee of Ways and Means, which reduced
the tariff of '4(5 considerably, and gave as a
reason that the bill ol "1(5 was raising too much
revenue! So here we have a party denoun
cing Mr. Wilrnot for voting for a measure,
which they declared was fire tiade,and would
not yield over fifteen millions of revenue, and
afterwards supporting the same gentleman for
Governor, and, in the same year, introducing
and passing a bill which reduced the tariff of
t(> because it afforded fty millions ot revenue!
\et they would be considered par excellence,
the friends of American labor and enterprise.
As T have before stated, the Democracy will
be called upon to meet the old issue of "pro
tection," and in order that we may "brighten
up upon the "obsolete" question, it might he
well to consider for a minute the theory of the
protectionists. Under a low tariff, they con
tend, the importation of foreign productions is
encouraged, and, the prices ranging at a low ,■
standard man they can In* produced, the com
petition with our own iron manufacturer is la
ta! to bis business. The relief proposed is, to
place the rate of duties upon the foieign article
to such a degree that either it will be excluded,
thereby giving to lliedomesti.it manufacturer a
monopoly of the market, or else the additional
duty will so increase the piice cf goods as to
insure to the manufacturer here a pa\ ing price
tor Ins productions. All this looks very well
upon paper, is indeed a very fascinating theory,
and might do very well for the purpose of buil
ding up a select few-aristocratic nabobs in our
land, but it must be remembered that it would
be done at the expense of the great body of tin*
people. I his is so well understood, however,
by the American people (bat it seems like lost
time to talk about it.
ft is Kile for demagogues to go before the
people and preach up restriction upon com
merce, for the judgment of an enlightened pub
lic opinion is against it, and will forever re
main so. i he time "has gone bv when it was pos
sible to lead the masses to believe that our occa
sonal revulsions are to be charged to the want

oom and justice of Democratic men anil mra
ores, we have lived to learn that the true cause
ot all commercial disasters is to he found in file
undue expansion of (tie credit system. The
mass of the people now know, beyond question,
that the banks of our country arc responsible
for all our embarrassments. This is so well un
derstood, by all men, that it is unnecessary
for me to go into any argument.
i ne Democratic party of Pennsylvania will
have to contend, single handed and alone, a
gainst every combination. Disappointed and
ambitious men are at work, and it is their pur
pose to rule or ruin. Finding tint they failed
in moulding Mr. BUCHANAN to suit their own
purposes, they now seek to crush both him and
the great party of which he is the acknowledg
ed head, That they will fail in the end I have
not a doubt. Ihe great Democratic party has
passed through too many trying and peiilous
scenes, and at too great a cost of patience and
labor, to now yield to envious traitors one jot
or tittle or its cherished principles.
I NIP great and immortal founder ol the Demo
ciatic party, IHOMAS JEFFERSON, never uttered
a greater truth than w hen he declared that'-the
price of liberty is eternal vigilance." The
Democratic press throughout " Pennsylvania,
should ponder well this great sentiment, and he
simulated to action by its admonitions. In
less the pi ess Is diligent in watching the pro
gress of tire enemy, our free institutions will
always be in danger. J trust, therefore, that
our editors will see to it that the issues of the
day are boldly met, and all will be Well.
I he late outrages perpetrated on our commerce
by British cruisers, has created quite a sensation
here. The prompt action of Ihe President is
universally applauded, and will teach the Brit
ish Ministry to know that we are a "power on
earth as weil as they. I have no idea that war
will be the result, for certainly England will at
once make an apology and ample separation for
the offence of her officers.
Ihe Senate and House have rescinded the
resolution to adjourn 011 Monday the 7th insl.
and resolved to close their labors on Iho r ' v
the 10th inst. I feel confide;?', • ' ;11 f.
. ... , . . mey w ill be able
to get through by the ' .me indicated.
In , cons, fehon ol the President's good
health, and the pressure of important public
duties, it is not likely he will visit the Bedford
Sprin#s this summer, as has been his annual
custom for many years. Several U.S. Sena
tors, and other gentlemen of distinction, will,
I think, honor your popular watering place
with their presence during the approaching
season, where I feel confident, they will realize
their brightest expectations.
We have beautiful weather here now, and
every body looks cheerful.
The religions interest has not decreased, and
I'nion prayer meetings are being being held
evt iy evening in the week, which are well
attended. lam glad to learn that Bedford has
caught tip this glorious spirit, and hope that
great good u ill be (he result.
Our election for Mayor takes place here on
Monday next, and the best possible arrange
ments have been made to preserve order at the
(Kills. For the honor of the country, it is tube
hoped the bloody scenes ot last June will not be
re-enacted, Ihe opposition have made no
nomination, and will fry to carry their Black
Republican k. N. candidate under the lalse
standard of ••no party" candidate. B.
The National Fouudr) <tm->lioii.
A few weeks ago we look occasion lu refer
to I lie peculiar advantages afforded by lire Hope
well region, in this county, as a site for the
National Foundry. Fire Philadelphia Evening
Journal copies our article and makes the fol
lowing comments
We have copied the above article from the
Bedford tiazetfe, for the purpose of saying that
we think there can he but one opinion as to the
proper Slate locality of a National foundry, and
if is tfiat it should lie located somewhere-in
Pennsylvania, for there is no other State in the
Union where material and facilities for carrying
on a National Foundry are so extensively com
bined. She is the great mineral State of the
I nintt, and. for an eslab'Uhiiu-nt of this kind, is
better situated,geographically, than any oilier,
| because of her accessibility to the great seaboard
; and her means of communication with all parts
1 ofthe country. Wo are not prepared to say that
the locality adveited fohv the (luzelle is better
than some others I hat could be named in this
| Commonwealth, but we have no doubt that in
i the Btoad Top legion, to which that article uI
! tudes, there is every lequiaite necessary for the
successful establishment and supply of a foundry
such as would fie required for *'OV*i nment purpo
ses. The region is perfectly accessible now by
the Huntingdon and llioad Top road, which con
nects with our great Central road at limiting
| Jon, and can thus be reached from the West
i riii Pittsburg, from (lie Fast via Philadelphia,
j and from the South via Baltimore, and the Nor
i tfiren Central road, which also connects with
j our Pennsylvania road. It has been satisfac
torily demoted rated that, in the Broad Top re
; gion, there are inexhaustible deposits of tfre very
j best coal for making iron, all flu* various ores
for the production of the best quality of iron,
| arid limestone, also, in the immediate ,vicinity
as well as fire clay of a superior quality. It is
seldom that all these materials can be found in
such close proximity to each other as in this re
: gioti. Last year Prof. J. W. Whitaker made a
! thorough examination of the region, and his re-
I port says .
i "The opportunities for the manufacture of
; iron are greater than, any in olhcr region of the
Shite with which lam acquainted, and I have
travelled, professionally, nearly the whole of it.
["here are abundant localities where the ore and
the coal could be mined in the closest contact
; with the furnace ; and, although it seems look
ing into the future, I believe tlial ten years of
time will s eo fhe udtole region teeming with
i furnaces and foundries, and resounding in every
direction with the din of industrial pursuits,
and calling info action the powers of men for
its development and the good of humanity/'
Since this report was made, and within a few
months past, the Broad Top ores have been tis
| ted by Mr. Henry S. King, of Pittsburg, at lit
turnace, and the following letter from him sub
' stantiates all that Mr. Whitaker said in his re
port a year ago :
PiTTsr.citn, Feb. '2lib, ISbS.
"Dar Sir, — i have been experimenting at
Lemnos n rkingpig ii n. and am using
coke made at Pal lit k's Coal Bank, on Shoup's
Hun. We started with a mixture of hall hema
tite (from Bender Bank) and half fossil ore,
changed to all hard fossil ore, then to all soft
f■ ssil ore, and have the furnace now working
on all hematite ore. Our blast, as you are a
ware, is weak and cold, vet we have* worked
the above ores very successfully alone and when
: mixed, and have made iion equal in quality (or
LrxJUn<r mill purposes to the iron made from the
same
Each charge of the furnace, alter she became
properly heated, consisted o) 10 bushels, or JSS
' lbs. ot coke, and 21 boxes, or 7f>f) lbs. of ore.—
I bis coke would carry a heavier burden of ore
in a furnace properly constructed with hot
j blast.
He have kept separate the iron made from
i the different ores, and intend having some
; blooms made of each kind, and subject them to
a thorough practical test, and ascertain correct
ly the quality and character of each kind. A
letter from the furnace this evening informs me
that the stack is giving way, arid we will most
likely be compelled * 0 blow her out. It was
; tuv intention to try all the different ores in the
; neighborhood sepaiatelv. and in mixture, but
; we have tried enough to satisfy any practical
man what could be done in that Broad Top
counrty with a good furnace. The coke is bet
ter adapted fm making iron than any coke that
I have yet seen worked, and the iron made with
it is of a better quality than any I have ever
: seen made with coke.
Please say to Mr. * ' ■ % and others inter
ested in Broad Top, that it is my humble opin
ion that Broad fop is the best point for making
iron in the State, both as regards cheapness and
quality, and J might add, variety.
V ery respectfully, K.C.,
HENRY S. KING.
f lie above letter confirms fully the opinions
of Professor Whitaker and others, heretofore ex- I
pressed. There can be no question as to the I
immense and valuable coal and iron ore depos- .
its of the Bread iop Region, and, with the j
Gazette, we say, "lei the agents of Uncle Sam '
examine the place for themselves, study its ge- j
ology, and learn of its wealth in minerals, and j
then make their report without "tear favor or
affection." We repeat, Pennsylvania is ttu
State for a National foundry.
And we repeat, Hopewell is the site for the ;
institution.
AN IN MA:IN<; DISCLOSURE. —The notori- J
°u's Jim Lane has had the misfortune to break I
with (he Abolitionists of Kansas; and the two'
parties to the controversy are diligently em- j
ployed in washing their dirty linen before.the I
public. We must confess that, so far, Lane lias
the worst of the quarrel. His old associates tell I
dreadful things of him, as witness the following !
revelation by James Kedpalh, editor of the j
Herald of Freedom :
"We are ready to swear in any Court of Jus- I
tice, or to make solemn affidavit of the fact, that :
Hen. Lane intimated to us that if Gov. Denver
challenged him, he would have him put out ol
(he way by the secret order known as the Dan- I
ites."
It is a question it Lane be any \vors than
the men who saw nothing repulsive in his char- j
acter until they found it convenient to dispense j
with his services.— Richmond South,

Dr. Hardman treats Consumption, Bronchitis,
Asthma Laryngitis, arut all diseases o| the throat
and lungs, by Medicated Inhalations lately used n:
the Piointon Hospital, London. l ire great point in
ihe treatment of ad human maladies, is to get at the
direct manner. All medicines are estimated by
> their action upon the organ requiring relief. This
i- the important tact upon which Inhalation is bas
ed. It the stomach is diseased we take medicines
directly into the stomach, li the lungs are di-pas
ed, breathe or mhale medicated vapors directly into
the lungs. Medicines are the antidotes to disease
and should (reapplied to the very seat of the disease.
Inhalation is the application of this principle to the
treatment ot the lungs, for it gires us direct access
to those intricate air cells and tubes which lie out ol
reach ot every other means of administering niedi
, cine.-. Inhalation brings the medicine indirect con
tact with the disease, without the disadvantage ot
any violent action. Its application is so simple,
that it can he employed by the youngest infant or
j feeblest invalid. It does not derange the stomach,
comfort oi busines-of the patient.
