THE ENSUING ELECTION7.
The ensuing election in Pennsylvania
w ill be a highly important one, both in re
gard to its immediate results and its re
cote consequences.
The present Sute Executive, it is well
'known, though perhaps not generally ad
mitted, is a weak, imbecile officer a mere
camp follower" of the great leaders of
his party, who is unable to either con
ceive or carry out any scheme of State
policy, unaided by men of greater talent
tnd experience than himself. The honor
and interests f the Commonwealth and
of the people therefore demand his defeat
and the election in his stead of one more
competent to discharge the high and re
rponsible duties which devolve upon the
chief Executive officer.
The present Ecard cf Canal Commis
sioners is compered of two Democrats
and cne Whig, the latter of whom, though
he be ever so desirous of introducing
wholesome reforms into the management
cf the public works, is altogether power
less, and will continue to be eo until one
of the former shall have been supplanted
by the election of a Whig.
These arc, in few words and general
terxs, the principal reasons why the
Democratic candidates for Governor and
Canal Commissioner should be defeated
tnd the Whig candidates elected, in so far
zs the affairs of the Commonwealth are
likely to b affected by the decision.
Bat this election will have an important
bearing also upon the Presidential con
test in 1318, and viewed in this light, be
ccmes even more important than when
considered merely with reference to im
mediate results.
Liist year the Whigs of Pennsylvania
achieved a great and decisive victor),
-which hzs exerted a salutary influence
upon the National Legislature, causing a
large portion of the Northern Democracy
tfl cut loose from the President &, his south
ern friends, and to take a manly stand for
Northern interests; thus identifying them
selves, eo far as regards those interests,
with the Whig party of the Nation, who
have long been battling against southern
encroachment upon Northern rights, and
have condemned,, from first 10 last, that
rystera of Southern dictaticn and Nor
thern servility which has been for so ma
ny years a curse to the nation.
It does not require the vision of a pro
phet to foresee that the power and influ
ence of tiic South will be exerted at the
ensuing election in this State, for the pur
pose of reversing the decision given last
fall, which has been the source of so
much perplexity to the President and of
tlarrn to Southern Locofocoisra. The
re-election of Gov. Shunt and the suc
cess of his candidate for Canal Commis
sioner would be viewed and proclaimed
as a condemnation by Pennsylvania of
the course of her delegation in the last
Congress on the Slavery question and as
a triumph of a Southern President and
Southern faction over the free citizens of
the Keystone State, and would be follow
ed by renewed exertions to either retain
in the Executive chair the present incum
bent or place in his stead another South
ern man with Southern principles. On
the other hand, the defeat of Shunk and
his partizans and the election of the
Whig candidates, would at once convince
tU parties that Pennsylvania was deter
mined to remain true to her purpose, and
that none other than a Northern man,un
trammeled by the influence of Slavery,
could receive her electoral vote for Presi
dent of the United States.
It must, we think, be obvious to all,
that, in whatever light we view the ques
tion whether in regard to State or to
National a'flairs the result of the ensu
ing election will be of high and lasting
importance important in regard to the
immediate concerns of the Common
wealth important in its bearings upon
the coming rrceidential contest and im
portant in the influences which it will ex
ert upon all sections of the Union in re
gt rd to those perplexing questions of Na
tional policy which have been so long
and so constantly a prolific source of con
tention between the slaveholding and non
slaveholding States of the Confederacy.
If the people of Pennsylvania will but
pcadtr these things if they will divest
themselves cf all prejudice and act solely
with a view to the advancement of their
own .interests and the interests-. of the
Vhojo lutiyu-pijicn lljcr? can Jtardly be
two opinions a3 to what will be their de
cision next fall. ' '
THE WHIG CANDIDATES.
If the tone of the Whig press may be
taken as an index to the feelings that per
vade the Whig party of the State, we
m3y congratulate our political friends up
on the nominations made by the Conven
tion on the 9th inst., for Governor and
Canal Commissioner, j We have seldom
witnessed greater unanimity or greater
enthusiasm than that which is manifested
by our Whig exchanges in regard to the
Dominations. All speak of the candi
dates in the highest terms, an J all appear
to be confident of their success at the en
suing election. Nor is this all. The
tools, dependants and understrappers of
the powers that be, manifest unmistake
able signs of alarm, well knowing that
the days of their power and rule will soon
be over, and that the people of our good
old Commonwealth will supply their pla
ces with other and better men. We may
expect to see the Whig candidates villified
as usual; but it will avail Gov. Shunk
and his office-holders, nothing. The
Whigs will march to battle in solid pha
lanx, and victory will again perch upen
their banner.
APPOINTMENT OF PRESIDENT
JUDGES.
J. Pringle Jones, has been appointed
to succeed Judge Banks.
John M. Forster, whose nomination
had been rejected by the Senate, was re

ceed Judge White, and rejected in the
Senate, 1G to 11.

cial districts therefore remain vacant. r
THE WAR.
The intelligence from the seat of war
which we publish to-day indicates the
most active preparations on the part of
Gen. Scott for an attack upon Vera Cruz
and the Castle. Ere this time a decisive
battle has in all likelihood been fought,
and the next arrival may bring us the gra
tifying intelligence that both the City and
Castle are in possession of our troops.
WISCONSIN.
Among the Acts passed al the late ses
sion of Congress, is one for the admission
of Wisconsin as a State of the Union.
The next Congress will therefore have a
representation from thirty States.

resigned his post as Secretary of the
Commonwealth, and that James R. Snow
den has been appointed in his place.
POLK & THE THREE MILLIONS.
The Washington correspondent of the
North American, of last Thursday, makes
the following statement:
I sav. 1 believe Santa Anna is indispo
sed to diplomatic proposals, because Ij
know that Captain Alexander Slidell
Mackenzie has just returned from Mexi- ;
co, after an ineffectual attempt to bring '
about a belter understanding. They in
dulged in cock-Gghling and other like re
freshing exercises, but the captain has
come back as wise as he went on the on
ly important matter of his mission. San
ta Anna was exceedingly polite and hos
pitable was delighted to see the Captain,
inquired kindly after Mr. Polk, and per
haps hinted at the missing two millions,
which the same officer was instructed by
the administration to promise him at Ha
vana! but on the subject of negotiations
for peace, he was as silent as Harpocrates
himself. I mak this -statemsnt on the
most undoubted authority, and say that
though Santa Anna suffered Mr. Polk and
his agents to believe that he vas tampered
with in exile, he is too fond of power to
be traniDcred wiiii in Mpti
vouii i.iii is jjuiu . iu mm win ue a wan
ton drain upon the public treasury to pro
crastinate the war against the United
States. . He cheated the administration
once in manaeement he will cheat ihem
i:
uow in money. "' His restoration , was all
that he desired it was; his only way to
get once more into power. The war on
the frontier enabled him to depose a sus
cessful rival, while his return at such a
crisis placed him at the head of the Gov
ernment. . This administration accom
plished .both these objects, and they are
now reapiug the result. -
V GEN. JAMES IRVIN. ' V
The Philadelphia Chronicle, a neutral
paper, in the course of a lengthy and
handsome article in relation to the nomi
nee of the Whig Convention says:
-"This urrassurning, but able man
from the ranks of the people practically
experienced in the great interests of the
State, and earnest to sustain them of ex
cellent judgment and practical good sense,
is now a candidate for the Gubernatorial
Chair of Pennsylvania. Can ii be doubt
ed that the'selecliun is a wise one? " We
speak apart Irom parly considerations.
Who can be'ler represent and sustain the
true interests of the Commonwealth, than
one who has been so long identified with
them, and always their consistent and ef
fective advocate! W& are persuaded that
the merits of Mr. Irvin will be apprecia
ted by his fellow citizens throughout the
Commonwealth that his popularity will
not be found to be divided by any geo
graphical line. East of, the mountains,
and West of them, wherever a hardy yeo
manry, alive to State honor and interests,
can be found, there will Gen, Irvln find
willing supporters."

THE RIVER AND HARBOR BILL!
The President rules with a high hand.
Few men have played the tyrant more
boldly, and treated his friends with more
supreme contempt. To plctse ' him, the
River and Harbor Bill of last year was
shorn of its exceptionable proportions.
It was publicly given out in both Houses
of Congress, that, as drawn, it would re
ceive the President's signature. This
was believed. Few of its friend doubt
ed a favorable result. The bill was ac
cordingly passed, and pockstbd ! Con
gress voted the President his Major Gen
erals and his Three Million Bill without
the Proviso; and as a reward to those
Northern men who surrendered their bet
ter judgment to a fancied policy, their fa
vorite measnre, so much needed, received
the official negative of His Excellency!
Millions for war, but not a cent for com
merce! The South triumphs, while the
North and West meet with nothing but
disappointment and insult! Alb. Jour.

Advices from the Mexican Army give
distressing accounts of the deplorable con

Santa Anna had issued a Proclamation

declares his determination to marah im

his soldiers to take and kill what is ne

they can find it, as they were deserted
