A meeting of the Whigs and Antima cons of Somerset county will be held at the Court House in Somerset, on Tues day evening of Court week, (1st Septem ber,) to give an expression of opinion on the lending questions which now agitate liic country. The Hon. Andrew Stewart, it is ex pected, will be present to address the meeting". The friends of a protective Tariff and of domestic industry generally are invi ted to attend, it being probable that mea sures for the furtherance of these objects will be taken bv the meeting. Many.

ICThe President has nominated Judge Grier of Pittsburg to fill the vacant seat on the Supreme Bench, to which Judce Woodward had been nominated. 10-James K. Polk has vetoed the bill making appropriations for the improve ment of rivers and harbors. f ryThc Whigs of Indiana Armstrong, fcc, have nominated Mr. Alexander Ir vine, of Clearfield, for Congress. DF""4WiU our neighbor be fair enough to publish that section of the Act of As sembly which he says 'prohibits the pub lication of the Sheriffs sr.Ies in the Her ald for the future.'' Somerset Visitor Certainly we will, and make you our best bow into the bargain. Here is the section: "Section 2 That from and after the passage of this act, it shall not be lawful for the Sheriffs and Coroners of the sev eral counties of this Commonwealth, to publish the sales of real estate, as requir ed by the sixty-third section of the Act of sixteenth June, A. I), eighteen hundred and thirty-six, in any two newspapers published in any one office, or in any two newspapers published by any one man, or anv one company of men. It ought to be understood that by the Act of 183G, the Sheriffs were required to advertise in one English and one Ger man paper, where such arc published in their respective counties and under that Act, the Sheriff of this county advertised in the "Herald" and the "Republican," both papers being published by us and in the same office. The effect of the late Act, however, is, that hereafter he must publish in the "Republican" and the "Vis itor," but cannot publish in the "Herald." ' Having now gratified the wishes of "our neighbors," will they be "fair enough" to answer the following queries? Does the late Act, although purporting to be a general one, affect any establish ment in the State other than ours, and if so, where is that establishment, and what is the political complexion of the papers there published! . Was any application made to the Le. gislature, by petition or otherwise, for the passrge of such a law? If so, will yon please inform us whence came such ap plication? If no such application was made, at whose instance and for whose benefit was fdiis law enacted? " Are you prepared to deny that a peti tion on the subject was got up last winter in the Borough of Somerset and signed bv some of the prom inentLocofocos here, cs well as by some vho arc not very prominent? We merely ask for information. ?!t7"A Washington correspondent of the Pennsylvania Telegraph, in a letter dated 1st instant, says: .Yesterday we had another of Mr. Stew Vrt's able speeches, in which he proposed ; the establishment of Societies for the pur pose of protecting home manufactures.- His idea was. that in all puis cf the Uni on e-uch societies bhculd be formed, the members ot which should use their influ ence to prevent others from purchasing a cent's worth of any thing manufactured abroad, whilst they should studiously a void it themselves In this way the revenue of the country would not be built up on the ruins of American industry, and in a very brief space the originators and crea tors of the McKay bill would earnestly beseech the Whigs to save the country from destruction, and the Locofoco party J'rom annihilation. We will here predict that if this bill should be in operation one year, such a feeling of hatred and disgust will be engendered in every American breast, that every member of the 29th Congress who voted for it, will be regard ed with the most marked contempt, and instead of being trusted with a seat in ei ther House again, will be allowed to dwindle into insignificance, and left to die and be forgotten. Strong as this language is, it is weak enough. A Horr.e I,ea?ruc. We are inclined to think that the best thing the American people can do to miti gate the evils which must necessarily re sult from the passage of the British Tariff bill, will be to carry out the suggestion of Mr. Stewart, of forming societies for the encouragement of Home Industry. The people of Adams county have already act ed upon that suggestion, and we are grat ified to learn that it is in contemplation to to take some similar action on the sub ject at the county meeting which is to be held in Somerset on Tuesday evening ot the ensuing court week. Pittsburgh and Coniicllsvllle ISail Hoad. We find the following statement in re lation to the purport of a speedy com mencement and completion of this road, under the fostering support of ."the Balti more Company, in a letter from Balti more, published in the New York Herald. The Hon. Louis McLane, is expected to return to this country by the steamer which leaves Liverpool on the 4th of August. He is still the prcsidcut of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, and has, I learn, given his prompt approval of the proposed connection of this road with the Connellsville Road, making a direct con nection with the Ohio at Pittsburgh from Baltimore. Ilor this purpose is he au thorized by the company to obtain a loan of $3,000,000, so that the work can be immediately commenced; and I learn that he has received the assurance from British capitalists that any amount may be requir ed will be forthcoming When called for. There is no man, perhaps, in the Union in whom the British capitalists have more confidence than Louis McLane, and on his honor and judgment, they are always ready to loosen their purse strings. Ar rangements are now making to survey the route to Pittsburgh, and during the next winter the whole route well be put under contract. The Vote of Dallas. The following was the vote on the mo tion ordering the free trade bill to a third reading. YEAS. Messrs.

The vote being a tic, the interests of Pennsylvania were held in the hands of her own son, Vice Presideut Dallas;' but like a recreant, whose vision was direct ed more to the flesh pots at Washington than the welfare of his State, he voied with the Free Traders, YEA, and thus cut off all hopes of its defeat. Mr. Nilcs moved to postpone the bill until December, and made a powerful speech, full of indignation, and was fol lowed by Mr. Cameron, who denounced the bill, and said from this day forth would be heard the cry of "REPEAL." The motion to postpone was lost, yeas 2G, nays 28, Messrs. Webster, Davis and Huntington then addressed the Senate in strong arguments against the bill, when the debate was closed by Mr. Simmons, in opposition to this, and the vote taken on the bill in breathless silence, which re sulted as follows: YEAS. Messrs. Allen, Ashley, Atch ison," Atherton, Bagby, Benton, Breese Bright, Calhoun, Cass, Chalmers, Col, quitt, Dickinson, Dix, Fairfield, Hannc gan, Houston, Javnigan, Lewis, McDulfie Pennypackcr, Rusk, Semple, Sevier, Speight, Turney, Westcott, Yulce. 28.

JOThe Vice President is guilty of the mean and contemptible falsehood of sta ting in his apology for voting for the Bri tish Bill, that he had no power to amend it, but must vote for it, as he found it, and this, loo, in the face of the fact that he had not half an hour before, given the cast' ing vote against a motion to amend it ! When the fellow determined tosurrender himself to the British and slave holders he evidently resolved to stop at no false hood that might appear to justify his trea son. Poor, miserable, degraded wretch. Lancaster Union. LATER EU05I TKIT ARMY. Camar?o Taken r. S. Troops Moving Forward. The steamer Fashion arrived at New Orleans from Brazos St. Jago on the 25th ult. She brought verbal . r-ports that there was a general movement of the troops up the Rio Grande General Tay lor remaining at Malaraoras, sending the troopsYorward as fast as his means would permit. Advices had been received of the taking of Camargo without firing a shot. When the United States troops arrived at that place. Carraiabal was on the opposite side of the River Jt. Juan, but offered no resistance. Gen. Taylor had received advices by scouts that there were only about three hundred troops in Monterey. The gen eral impression was that there woold be no resistance to the U. S. troops this side of that city, on account of the quiet ness of the enemy. the impression gain ing ground in the army that negotiations for peace were on foot. It was said that Paredes was afraid to leave the capital, on account of a suspect ed attempt at revolution in his absence. There was a report that Mr. Lumsden, of the Pieayunc,and his party, had been cut off by the Indians, but it was not creuitau. The volunteers were suffering from diarrhoea otherwise the health of the army was good. MOVEMENT OF GEN. TAYLOR UPON MONTEREY. The proposed movement of General Taylor upon Monterey, says the New Orleans Picayune, is well known in all parts of Mexico. Letters from Monterey represented that the inhabitants ot mat citv were much alarmed at the prospect as "they possessed " very slight means of defence. All the accounts represent that the army of the North, formerly under Arista, but at present under. Meiia, was concentrated at Linares to the number of 1000. A paper from the city of Mexico devotes a labored articleto prove thatitcan notbc the intention of Gen. T. lo march to Monterey directly, leaving this force to operate upon his flank and rear. It con siders the command of Mejia quite suf ficient, considering the strength of Linares and the natural difficulties ol the country, to hold Gen. Taylor in check.or to annoy himupon the march,so that ample time will be afforded to take up a second and more sold line of defence. Mr. rolk Violated Pledges. The broken promises and violated pledges of Mr. Polk arc fast consigning him to the doom pronounced upon him by Mr. Hannegan, the U. S. Senator from Indiana, and one of his own most zealous friends. Mr. II. declared during the Oregon discussion that the President was pledged to 54 40 so irrecoverably, that any retreat would doom him to an infamy so deep "that there would be for him "no resurrection." But Mr. Polk did retreat he shrunk in terror before the growl of the British lion, and signed away an immense territory which he had solemnly declared belonged to this coun try aye to which our title,in his own lan guage, was "clear and undisputable." What wonder, then, that he should desert the Tariff of 1842 ! What wonder that he should abandon those Pennsylvania dem ocrats who had pledged him to stand by that beneficial law ! But what will the Tariff men of Penn sylvania say? Will they basely submit to the treachery, bow at the foot ot power, rather than manfully maintain their own interests and their own principles? Will they willingly submit to the base betrayal of a measure which has entailed upon us national prosperity ? We shall see. Hearken to Mr. . Ibmncgan hearken to the voice of indignant patriotism rebu king the traitor! Mr. Ilaiinegan said after the Oregon treaty was signed: "Mr. Polk is a greater traitor than ever John Tyler was I His treachery to tne Democratic party is ten thousand times more base, infamous and inexcusa ble, than that of John Tyler to the Whigs! He is utterly unworthy of confidence ! The truth is not in him,and he can never again secure the support of any consider able portion of the democratic party ! ! ! The morning after Mr. Haywood made his speech in the Senate, and made the asseveration which I deuied, the Presi dent sent for me. It was his own volun tary act. The interview was unsolicited on my part. He then declared to me, most solemnly and uenquivocally, that Mr. Haywood had no authority whatev er for the declarations he made that they were entirely gratuitous, unjust and un founded that he would suffer his right arm to fall from Us socket, his hand lo be withered, before he would consent to a treat i on the 40 h parallel, or any line short af54 40.!!!" The projc. of a Railroad from Harris burg to Pittsburg the great antagonistic scheme to thc"Right of Way;"secms to be in rather a dasperate position. Ten mil lions at the very least would be required to construct it. The books for subscrip tion were opened a good while in Phila delphia, and about S850,000 subscribed not cnongh, we believe, to secure the Charter. The subscriptions at Lancas ter, Ilarrisburg and other places in the in terior were mere nothings. After a long straggle, and great controversy in the pub lic prints, the Common Council of Phila delphia has determined by a tie vote not to subscribe the two and a half millions which were expected from that quarter. This seems to be a wise decision, for the Citv would no doubt have lo step in still deeper, and m trying to sustain mcisaii ! road on stilts,' would no doubt have swamped its own credit and laid an intol-' ! erable load upon its tax-payers.
