    v",,pl( ft el a deep anxiety in regard to
M pi.io-!i of the change of any policy,

vhirJi may be fupposed lo affect such

Union, has long beeu a vexed and
rxchisg question. Its influences for

I re.fcr io the reports of the Canal
Commissioners, for a detail of the pro
ceeding during -the past year on the pub
lic improvements of the Stole. This
(document contains, among other things, a
statement, exhibiting the amount of ton
nage that passed .over these works du
ring the year, ' which, when compared
with that of past years, will show their
increasing value. It does not, however,
exhibit near the whole amount of our
iti'.einal trxde, as a very large proportion
of ibc products of agriculture -and manu
factures find their way to market through
other channels of communication, and by
far the greatest amount of our coal is
transported upon company improve
ments By the statement referred to, it appears
lhal 80.231 tons of iron, in its various
forms, passed over the canals and rail
ways of the State during the season.
How much found its way to market upon
our rivers and company works, I have
no means of a.ce raining wish accuracy,
but, most probably, an amount equal lo
that which was carried on the State im
provements. From the best information I hare been
c.iablcd to obtain, not less than two mil
lions f lo'is of Anthracite Coal were ta
ken ontof the mines and carried to mark--ct
during the bust year, ihe greater por
tion of which was sent to the? Eastern and
neighboring States, being an increase of
about twenty live per cent over the op
erations of ihe preceding year, and, it is
h?i;eved, the tradi in this artidi will
i.icrease in even a greater ratio the pres
ent year. Of the Bituminous Coal, a
very large ?.mount was also mined and
erfl to market. It is estimated, that not
less lhan thirteen millions bushels, were
cjnsumed at Pittsburgh and in its viciai
iv, raid about six millions of bushels were
transported from that point down the Ohio
liivcr.
I advert with great satisfaction, to the
growing' confidence of the people in the suc
cess and manage ment of our .State im
provements, which has been secured by
thevigilance and economy of the Canal
Commissioners.
The importance of these works, a a
conlribu'ion to the national defence, and
their value to the citizens of other States,
?is well as our own, cannot be too highly
appreciated. They arc now yielding a
considerable portion of the revenue to
meet the claims upon the Treasury.
The security of the public creditors, and
the faith and honor of the State, arc mot
intimately connected with their suscess
jvnd productiveness. They, therefore,
demand the special care and vigilance of
ihe Legislature, by which the income
they are now yielding, may be secured
and advanced "with the increasing busi
ness of the country.
In this connection, there arc few ob
jects of national concern in which Penn
sylvania has ta deeper interest, than in
the appropriation for romovir.g the ob
structions to the navigation of the Ohio
river, to the city of Pittsburg, which is
a port of commercial entry. The claims
upou Congress, to expedite the comple-
tion of tikis work, long since commenced j
as one of national interest, derive great
force from the communication it w ould
facilitate between the Western and South J
"Western States, on the one hand, and;
those of the Atlantic on the oil er, byj
means of our public improvements.
The legislative enactment? cf the; last
1 few vcars, have introduced numerous im
! provemehts, ia the system of levying and
collecting me revenues ol the fetate, anu
have guarded their expenditure with more
care than formerly. I have every reason
io believe, that these laws are strictly and
honestly administered by the accountant
and Treasury Departments, aud that the
' influence of their authority, and example,
! has had a salutary effect upon all the pub
: lie agents. 31 uJh however, remains to
I l,e done to perfect our system of taxation.
' Complaints are made, that several of the
1 " . I 1 .1 1 A.
! texas now levica are renuereu unprouuci-
ive, as well as oppressive, by imperfec
tions in their assessments. Personal es
tates, mat should bear a share of the pub
lic burthens, escape altogether, by the in-
u-rposition of a trust, between the osten
sible and the beneficial owners. The
property of many corporations is exempt
ed from taxation byr special laws, while
that of others of the sameclases, and e
qually meritorious, remains bound. Se
curities for the payment of money, aroby
the words of the law, made taxable,
which are in fact, the mere evidence of
passing transactions, and can, in no degree
be regarded as even temporary invest
ments of the property of those in whose
hands they are found. The simple ex
hibit, by the citizen, of his personal estate
made without any other sanction, is sub
stituted, generally for a less equivocal
mode of ascertaining" its amount and char
acter. It should not , be forgotten, that
the tax which one citizen eludes, or is
legally relieved from, is distribu'odamong
the rest, arid forms an addition to their
burthens. Justice to the tax-parcrs re
quires that this should not be suffered,
The whole subject, however, is one pe
culiary within v our province, and I com
mend it to your prompt and serious con
sideration.. The report of the Adjutant Ceneral,
exhibits the condition of the militia and
volunteers, and of the arsenals and milita
ry property of the Commonwealth. It
contains, also, judicious suggestions, in
regard lo the care of the public property,
and the improvement of 'the militia sys
tem. As the nations of the world have not
united in providing, by paramount law,
for the peaceful adjustment of disputes
between seperate sovereignties, a military
organization is essential to repel aggres
sion and maintain the rights of the repub
lic. In a nation of freemen, capable, of
self government, a well organized militia
is adequate for these porposes, in all or
dinary contingencies. Every man feels
the conscious dignity of being a part of the
national sovereignty, and the proud duty
of defending his own rights, and the rights
of all.
Various opinions are entertained as
to the best organization of the militia, and
I cannot hope that a discussion of them
here will lead to any profitable result.
Our volunteers, whose lime and talents
have been largely given to the acquisi
tion of military knowledge, present a
formidable force, which may compare,
advantageously, with that of any other
State. Their conduct and discipline,
have secured the public confidence, and
they merit such well devised legislation,
asj will secure their continued efficiency
and increasing numbers.
The incalculable "benefits of our sys
tem of Common Sshool instruction, are
extending themselves throughout the
whole Commonwealth, strengthening,
improving, and elevating mind, and pre
paring the generation which is to succeed
us, for usefulness and just appreciations
of duty. In country districts, where the
population is scattered, and a large por
tion of the children iind active employ
ment for near half the year, the system
cannot reach alii the ends that are accom
plised in cities and towns. But the signal
and extensive advantages resulting .from
it, throughout the State, as shown in the
comprehensive report of the Superin
tendent of Common Schools, give assu
rance, tint Pennsylvania has laid the
broad and deep foundation for the perpe
tuity of her institutions, by securing a
sound, intellectual and moral education,
for all her children.
I hare lately, with the Superintendent
of tjie Public Schools, visited the city of
Philadelphia. There is much for the
good man to admire, in the variety, com
prehensiveness, and beautiful arrangement
of her benevolent and charitable Institu
tions, and to warm his gratitude towards
the men who founded, and who now di
srect them. But, there is amoral grandeur
presented to the patriot, in her public
schools, that surpasses them all. By the
former, which cannot be commended too
strongly to the continued favour and fos
tering care of the Legislature, comfort and
instruction are provided for a few, who
are excepted from the mass by special
misfortune. But the latter are ajblcssing
to all; they provide for improving and
elevating the whole body of the people,
and for qualifying every child in its on
ward way to maturity, by sound mental
and moral instruction, for filling up its
measure ot usefulness, and accomplishing
intelligently, the ends of its being. That
community is happy, in which the sys
tem of general eduacation is so widely
diffused, and so well administered, as I
have seen it in the city and county of
Philadelphia.
Allow me, gentlemen, before closing
this communication, to tender to you
assurances of my hearty co-operation in
your efforts to maintain the faith of the
Commonwealth, and advance the wellare
of our constituents. To secure these
great objects, with the more certainty, it
is desirable that the indispensible business
of the Legislature should be acted on at
an early period, and that no important
subject of legislation should be deferred
to the closing days of the session.
The practice which has eome times ob
tained, of affixing the Executive approval
to bills during the recess, seems to m to
be opposed to die policy of the constitu
tion, while to act on them in the crowded
hours that precede a final adjournment,
requires a decision," without 'affording
time for consideration hence, a rule se
curing reasonable time for executive de
liberation, on bills presented to him, near
the close of the session, is most desira
ble. "
Since the last session of the General
Assembly, it has pleased Almighty God,
to withdraw from the view of the A
merican Nation, 'its most eminent -and
best loved citizen. After a life devoted
to his country, the defence of her soil,
her institutions and her honer, ANDREW
JACKSON has passed to his rest leav
ing to the friends of liberty, throughout
the world, the precious inheritance of
his example, and the consecrated memo
ry of his services.. His last moments
were jerene and admirable. Death found
him waiting his approach, with a heart
expanded in universal charity, and his
spirit brightening as it drew nearer to the
Saviour in whom he trusted. That he
lived, has been the long extended theme
of patriotic gratulation that he so died,
must crown the devout thanksgivings of
Ui e christian.

Executive Chamber,
Harrisburg, Jan'ry 7 1836. 3
29iEi Congress 1st 5es$iosi.
ORC0!V! OSEGOJ
Washington", Januaryr 8, 18 iG.
Dear Sir: On Monday morning the
unfinished business of Saturday was call
ed up, on the Report of Mr. Harralson
from the Committee on Military Affairs,
relative to raising two regiments of rille
men, but before any debate was had,
Mr. Ingcrsoil, from the Committee on
Foreign Relations, reported a resolution
ths Senate concurring) that the President
forthwith cause notice to be given to
Great Britain, of the desire cf the United
States to annul and abrogate the Conven
tion ol August utn, 1827, relative to trie
joint occupancy of Oregon Territory; and
moved to make it the special order of the
day for the first Monday in February.
Mr. G. Davis, from the Minority of
the Committee, asked leave to make a
Report, which he was instructed to offer
as a substitute. This Report recommen
ded to the House that it take no action
upon the subject, that it is not a subject
for their consideration, and that the whole
matter be left to the discretion and re
sponsibility of the President.
After some questions, propounded to
the Speaker, were answered, Mr. Gid
dings of Oiiio, took the floor, and of
course opened the merits of the Oregon
question.' He was in favor of giving the
notiee, and gave his reasons at length.
He was in favor of the resolution upon
the ground that by the recent accession
of Texas, the slaveholding portion of the
Union have the power in their own hands
that if we get Oregon, she will be non
slaveholding, and thus there will be some
thing like an equal division, lie believed
that if we took possession of Oregon,
war would ensue, but he would prefer
war, to being under the influence of a
slaveholding obligarchy.
Mr M'Dowell, of Ohio, succeeded Mr.
G. but presented no new features in the
case. '
Mr. Rhett, of South Carolina, followed
in a very able speech; he was opposed to
giving the notice, and echoed the senti
ments of Mr. Calhoun. He expressed
his surprise at the course of Mr. Adams,
and went on lo say if we were to go to
war with Great Britain for Oregon, the
war would not end here. We might get
Oregon, bul we would ruin ourselves.
Mr. Simms, of Mo., followed in a very
hot speech favorable to giving the notice.
He was opposed to any conciliatory mea
sures, and thought now was the time to
give direction", and prepare for the con
sequences. He spoke until the hour of
adjournment. -
On Tuesday, Wednesday and to-day,
the debate was continued.
Mr. M'Connell, before the debate was
resumed, asked leave to submit the fol
lowing resolutions:
Resolved, That we hail the elevated
feelings which now universally prevails
in our glorious confederacy to strengthen
and consolidate the principles of Repul)
lican freedom and extend the blessings of
our free institutions in every practicable
quarter of the universe, in the spirit of
Christian lore and peaceful brotherhood.
Resolved, That while we hail the ad
mission of Texas (which fought its way
to independence,) as a sister Stale into
our Union, and view with unafft riled pride
and satisfaction, the patriotic resolution of
the Executive government and Congress
of the United States, to uphold our title
to Oregon, and also observe the growing
desire to incorporate Mexico.. Yucatan,
California, &c, in the contedf racy that
Ireland is fully entitled to share the bles
sings of our free institution!.
Resolved, That the Irish people as a
nation have long been ground down, by
the tyrranny of British misrule and mis
government, and while her people for cen
turies have groaned under a foreign mo
narchal yoke, they have always cherish
ed the democratic principles of Republi
can government, the only civilized insti-'
tution that has ever insured freedom to
man. .
Resolved, That the House receive with
due attention and consideration, any com
munication that may be forwarded from
that high minded and liberty-loving peo
ple, with a view to effect such an object.
Mr. Hilliard, of Alabama, then took
the floor in favor of giving notice.: He
is an able speaker and a good Whig. He
coniiders our title so good that Great
Britain would have acknowledged the fact
long ago, but that 6he considers her col
losal strength will induce us to compro
mise, rather than enter the arena with
her. " - : :
Judge Bowlin followed Mr. Hilliard,
in opposition to the ground assumed by
Mr. Rhett, but his remarks finally mer
ged into the same strain as those of Mr.
Simms -and like Mr. S., spoke until the
House adjourned.
On Wednesday, Mr. Yancey, of Ala.,
took the floor, but gave way for the Com
mittees to Report.
The most important Report was from
the Committee in the case of Cabell and
Brockenbrough, deciding that Mr. . Cabell
is not entided to the seat he now occupies,
and that Mr. Brockenbrough is. The
Report was ordered to be printed. The
Committee decided some time ago that
Mr. C. was entitled to his seat during the
investigation. -
After this was gone through with,
Mr. Yancty- took the floor, and, in a
most eloquent speech, opposed the reso
lution to give the notice. He remarked
that the negotiation was not closed. He
was in favor of continuing the joint occu
pation four years longer, at the expiration
of which time, we would have 100,000
setdeas there. This was the only sure
way to secure the country. If we only
had patience, we would get it without
fighting for it
Mr. Caleb B. Smith followed Mr. Yan
cey, and ridiculed the war spirit that per
vaded some parts of this House. He
was strenuously opposed to giving the no
tice and knew that his constituents were
opposed to any measure which would in
volve this country in a war.
This morning Mr. Cobb, of (Jeorgia,
took the floor in favor of the resolutions,
and is now speaking.
By the tenor of the debate you will
see that it is not confined to any party,
but the temperate of both parties oppose
the measure, as one flagrant with evils.
Mr. Adams' speech was regarded by the
war party as something extraordinary
but that gentleman, yesterday, in explan
ation of some of his ' remarks made the
other day, said he did not believe we
would have war, and if it did come to the
sticking place, he "believed this Admi
nistration would back out."
And this is the opinion of many of the
Whig Members of this House, who will
vote lor tne resolutions.
Mr. Cobb has concluded, and Mr. M'
Clernane, of Illi., has the floor. He goes
the whole figure for Oregon, and sooner
than surrender to the 49th, he would sur
render the whole.
It is said that there is noi a single
member of the Cabinet, who is not fa
vorable to taking possession of the whole
of Oregon, and opposed lo a compromise.
The Post-Master General has recently
instructed, the Deputies in this city, to
charge postage on all letters not written
bv members, although franked bv them.
The memory of the "Hero of New
Orleans" cannot be so fondly cherished,
as he, if he were aware of the fact, would
like.
A motion was made to adjourn, this
being the 8th of January the Anniver
sary of the Battle of New Orleans, but
it was not even received.
I he Senate lias been eneageu on un
important business this week, they will
not get hold of the interesting matter be
fore this House for some time, but when
it docs come up in that body, it will be
deeply interesting. That is the grand
tribunal and they will secure the peace
and prosperity, or the wo and misery of
our country. Pa. Tel.
