FOU CANAL COMMISSIONER.

OF MERCER COUNTY.
Appointments.
Hon. Geo. Chorpcnning and Hon.
John McCarty, have been re-appointed
by the Governor, Associate Judges of the
several Courts of Somerset county.
IXoti. Andrew Sleirnrf.
Oa the first page will be found an ac
count of an interesting scene which oc
curred in Congress several weeks since,
and in which our Representative, Mr.
Stewart, was a somewhat conspicuous
actor. A correspondent of the Pennsyl
vania Telegraph also speaks highly of
Mr. Stewart's speech on that occasion,
lie says Mr. Stewart opened with a he:wy
fire on the South, expressed his surprise
that any person could be cajoled into the
belief, that any benefit other then e
phemereal, and he doubted even that
would accrue to the United States from
the reneal of the Emlish Corn laws, and
predicted that if Mr W
aiker
bill for
a
reduction of our 1 ami should become a
law, in eighteen months there would not
be a specie-paving bank in the countrv.
CONGRESS. THE ADMINISTRA
TION. Nothing of special interest has trans
. pired in either House of Congress of late.
The House of Representatives has been
enjaged for some days in the discussion
of the "Harbor Bill' and in the Senate,
the Oregon Resolutions have elicited a
number of long speeches The question
will probably soon be tested by a direct
vote, and the prevailing opinion is that
the resolutions will pass. The commit
tee of Ways and Means in the House
had not reported the new tariff bill, at
date of our last accounts. The friends of
the Administration have got themselves
into a snarl in regard to Mr. Polk's true
"position" on the Oregon question the
Southern wing of the Democracy intima
ting that he is in favor of compromising
at 49, and the Western portion alleging
that he is bound by the Baltimore resolu
tions to hold out tor "the whole" of the
disputed Territory. Thus matters stand
at present. How Mr. Polk will act on
this question in the end, none but his in
timate and confidential friends can tell,
and they are perhaps unable to speak
with certainty.
Transportation from Cumber
land to Vlieelinsr.
Owing to the darnr.ge done to the
Pennsylvania Canal bv the late freshet,
transportation from Philadelphia to Pitts
burg has been temporarily suspendc-J,
O A
until the breaches can be repaired, which
will probably be accomplished before the
end of the present week. In the mean
time larjrc quantities of merchandize have
been shipped from Philadelphia to Balti
more, whence they are taken per Rail
road to Cumberland, and there loa Jed on
wagons and conveyed to Brownsville and
"Wheeling. It is said that one night last
week over two hundred wagons, engaged
in transporting goods and produce on the
National road, stayed over night in Wash
ington, and we were informed on Satur
day that freight commanded two dollars
per cwL from Cumberland to Wheeling.
Further we leam that all the ware houses
in Cumberland arc' filled, and that one
hundred and fifty cars, laden witfi mer
chandize, are at the depot.

Mr. Win. Gregory, of Mercer, Pa.,
proposes to publish a monthly periodical
under the above tide, devoted to Agricul
ture, Horticulture, and Rural and Domes
lie affairs. He has issued a specimen

Right of War Bill
It will be seen by oar report of Jegis
lativc proceeding?, that the right of way
bill was op in "the Ilonse ;.on Saturday
before last, and that an smrendment, the
passage of which was intended to kill
Vtcs. The fricnds of the bill, howeyer,
jjj not consider it a test vote, and still en-
tcrtain hopes of .carrying it. The final
vote, when it comes to be. taken, we
cpihe will be a "hair-splitting" affair. ,
Speech of Col. Edlc. .
The last Harrisbugh Telegraph
brought us a copy of the speech of our
Representative, Col. Edie, in favor of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Bill, which
we shall take pleasure in spreading be
fore onr readers next week. It is one of
the most argumentative speeches that have
been delivered in either branch of the
Legislature during the present session.

ACCEPTANCE OF MR. POWER.
Br the following correspondence it
will be seen that James. M. Power, Esq.
the uomin ee of the Whig State Conven
tion, has accepted said nomination, and
henceforth will stand before the Freemen
ol this Commonwealth as a candidate for
that important and responsible office.
The nomination is hailed with such uni
versal joy throughout the Stale, that we
can scarce have a doubt of success by the
triumphant vole of the People opposed to
political favoritism, extravagance, and in
favor of retrenchment and reform.
Harrisbcrok, March 12, 1846. -Dear

mittee appointed by the Democratic
Whig Stale Convention, which assem
bled in this place on the 11th instant,

THE CANAL-
Wc took a walk around the canal last
evening. It was truly a cheering scene
alter being dry and full for months. The
new boats, nad old ones fresh painted,
have a handsome appearance. . Letters ;
received yesterday front the Canal Com- j
tare state just about the same intelligence ;
as we published Ia.st week. The Canal J
Hence to unrnsourg is very sugnny mju-1
red, and the Boats which'left "yes'terday j
will ent on without a moment's deiav.
To prove this, it is only necessary to
mention that the Transporters receipted
.
for yesterday, and despatched 505 tons of
freight in twelve boats, to be delivered in
Philadelphia in the regular time. From
Harrisburg to Columbia the repairs will
be completed in two .weeks we have
the same authority for. this, and it con
firms what wc asserted last week. D.
Leech & Go's passenger Packets will
commence running on Monday next. So
that the great exaggerations about the des
truction of the Pennsylvania Canal have
dwindled down to a small matter indeed.

MEXICO.
Recent intelligence from Mexico gives
some color to the rumors which have
been circulated for some months post rel
ative to a design on the part of European
Powers to establish a monarchy in that
country .'The matter is openly broached in
a Mexican paper. El Tiempo, which con-
siders a constitutional monarchy the onlv
0
safety for Mexico in her present ruined
and all the northern province threatened
with annexation to the United States.
On the other hand, accounts from Ha
vanna as late as the 1st instant represent
that Santa Anna has made the necessary
arrangements for returning to iUexico,
and that he will he found in opposition to
the rumored change in the structure of that
Government.
The latest dates Trom Vera Cruz arc
to the 23d ultimo. They do not indicate
any change in our relations with Mexico
since the last preceding advices. Mr.
Slideix was still at Jalapa, awaiting in
structions from lliis Government. Mr.
Almonte had resigned his station as
Secretary of War, and Gen. Torntx had
been appointed in hi" place. Nat. Intel.
Injerj to the Pennsylvania Ca-
,TVe are indebted to the Pennsylvania
Reporter, published at Harrisburg, for the
following reliable information concerning
the injury done to the Pennsylvania Ca
nals br the recent freshet:
As the business community, at this
time particularly, feel a great anxiety a
bont the extent ol damarre done to the
a j
Public Improvements, we have been at j
considerable Dains to ascertain the exact;
condition of these works, for the greater
portion of which information we are in
debted to the polite and gentlemanly Sec
retary of the Board of Canal Commis
sioners, Mr. Mitchell. ' -
Eastern Division. The Supervisor
on the Eastern Division from Columbia
to the Rope Ferry on the Juniata, fifteen
miles above the junction at Duncan's Is
land, reports, that he has examined his
line thoroughly, and that (with the excep
tion of two spans oi the Clark's Ferry
Bridge gone) the damage has been slight
and that he has made arrangements
which will ensure the opening of the nav
igation on his division, from this place to
the Rope Ferry, by the middle of next
week. The Branch near Columbia, ow
ing to the difficulty of procuring suitable
material to repair it, will perhaps . require
some days longer. Accounts from Juni
ata to Hollidaysburg are that the injury
to the Canal up that stream has not been
great, and will probably be repaired in
ten davs or two weeks at most. .
Scsqehanna Division. The Suner-
visor on this Division informs us that the
Susquehanna Divison of Canal has suf-1
very considerably. From Milton on the
West Branch Division down that stream,
and the Susquchnr.ua to Duncan's Island,
the banks of theCanal have been very much
washed, and several breaches made in
lh?m; but the mechanical work is all
standing with the exception of two small
culverts near Liverpool; which have been
washed out. The imprest ion i, that the
repairs can be made in 23 days.
JrxtATA Division. We make the fol
lowing extract from a letter to the Canal
Board, from Mr. Oles, the Supervisor of
the line from the Rope Ferry to Augh
wie's Dam, dated Milllintown, Msrch 19,
1846.
"I am happy to inform the Board, that
I have just returned from a survey of the
damage on this division by the late flood.
My estimate to repair the canal, as near
as I can come to it, will cost about $5000,
including material, tools, &c. There is
little or no damage done above Lewis
town; the narrows above that place suffer
ed the most."
lie goes on to say, that lite line under
his superintendence will be ready for nav
igation by the beginning of next week.
We have no reliable information in re
lation to the main line of canal west of
the mountains to Pittsburg, but from the
reports of the flood at the latter point, we
judge that the injury there cannot be. very
great.
West Branch Division. A letter
from a reliable source, dated Lock Haven,
states that the schute at the Dunnslown
Dam has been very much injured and ren
dered impassable lor the present. The
canal for some distance below that place
has suffered considerable damage.
North Branch. In regard to this
Branch we have no reliable information
as to the extent of the damage, but wc
have every reason to believe it is of seri
ous character, as the river at Wilkesbarre
is stated to have been higher than it had
been for the last fifty years.
Correspondence of the Philadelphia X.
American.
Harrisbcrc, March 20, 1816.
The opinion here now is, that the Ju
niata boats can. start in 10 days, and the
Northumberland in about three weeks.
This is the last news we have.
It is confidently believed that the inju
ry sustained bv the Lancaster and Ilar-
risburg railroad will be entirely repaired
by Tuesday next. This is important, as
goous can men ur lunv-iiuwuntu ium
Philadelphia to this place, where they
will take tne canal as soon as it is repair
ed.
A letter received bv
gentleman
in
Baltimore, states that the Canal from
Hollidaysburg to Midd'.etown will be nav
igable by the first of next week. The
force now employed in repairs between
Middletown and Columbia, is said to be
very large, and hourly increasing. The
writer says that this part of the line will
certainly be opened for navigation in nine
or ten davs.
Another Fire.
We have to record another destruction
of property in our city by fire, which
broke out this morning about 4 o'clock,
in one of two bakeries on Seventh street,
between Grant and Coal Lane, belonging
to Mr. M'Leiry, and another man whose
name we did not learn. The buildings
being frame, the fire obtained heavy head
way before the engines arrived, and the
destruction has been very great, extending
from Seventh to Prospect, street, inclu
ding in all sixteen hctses, most of them
new, and many of them of the better
class of frame buildings, with all the fur
niture' and household property of every
kind in as many as four of the houses.
The sufferers are: Mr. Murray,-two hou
ses; Mr. Smith, one; Mr. John Pat
terson, two houses, including all his fur
niture, the fire spreadingso rapidly as to
aflordhim no time to save any part of it;
Squire Arthurs, two houses; Joseph
AV right, one house; Mr. Houston, one
house, and six others, the owners of
which we did not leam. Part of this was
the site of the second great fire last spring,
which had been rebuilt on. We have no
estimate of the loss, which is serious,
from being the all of many of the suf
ferers. We believe there was little, if a
ny insured. Fitts. Amer.
Texas. The Legislature of this new
State assembled in Austin on the 20th
ulu, and was organized by the election of
Gen. Burleson as President of the Senate
and Mr. Crump as speaker of the House
Representatives. On counting the vote
for Governor, it appeared that Gen. Hen
derson had received 8,910 votes, and Dr.
Miller 1,672.
A Great Voyage. The Providence
Journal announces the arrival on Thurs
day, at that port, of the Ship South Amer
ica Capt. Soule, from the Northwest
coast, after one of the most successful
whaling voyages on record. The South
American brings home 4100 barrels of
oil, 160 of it sperm. She had previously
sent home 700 bbls, 100 of it sperm, and
sold 1000 bbls at Bahia. She also sent
home 37,000 pounds of bone, and brings
22,000 lbs. -
POSTSCRIPT.
IMPORTANT FROM WASHING
TON A MESSAGE.
In the Senate on Tuesday, a message
was received from President Polk. He
recommends an increase of our Land and
Naval Forces, and the building of War
Steamers. He re-affirms the doctrines
of his Message, and says that although
Great Britain is apparently friendly to
wards this country, she is making ex ten
sive military preparations, not only at
home, but in her North American Colo
nios. .
Both Hgusps of Parliament agree on
the Oregon Question, and under these
circumstances, he urges the duty of prep
aration fcr the worct. In any event, such
a policy would be a wise one, for the
preservation of peace, and the mainte
nance of the national rights and the na
tional honor. He sees no reason to
change his views on Oregon since his an
nual message. . - "
Our Minister to Mexico ha? not been
received, and it is necessary that we should
keep two thirds of the Army in Texas.
This of itself renders an increase of the
Army necessary. Sat. Cou.
