To-day a. memorial or manifesto.from the Quakers of some of the lower counties, and of tho State of. New Jersey, repelling the charge of thdir being favorable to the abolition of slavery by force of arms or vio lence of any kind, was presented. The Mifflin County Bank billhas •passed both Houses over the head of, the Governor. It made; a narrow escape in the House, and would have been lost, only-that Mr. Dunlap, a Democratic member from Philadelphia, was pemit|ed to vote far the passage, of the bill, after the vote was announced,. Whether a vote on a veto can be .reconsidered, is a question. The Attorney General says it done. The bill is. alto gether a queer one, and if I can understand it properly, thb basis of its operations* is to be hypothecated real estate. In-other words Stone Mountain and Jaok’e Mountain con be both put in at so mnch on acre, in lien of cosh, for the ultimate redemption of -thp notes!.• In the Senate to-day, a bill was passed to a -third reading for the erection of a nek county out of parts of Potter, Elk, M’Kean and Glia ton counties, to bo called Cameron. The loca tion is principally on the Allegheny mountain, on the line of the Sunhury and Erie Railroad, and it Is expected that t|ie '‘county seat will be selected, by the Company for the erection of their workshops. As it lies in a region, abounding in coal, iron ore and timber, it will no doubt spring as .rapidly into existence as your own thriving village.* Chas.

It is the only street of importance in the city bn which rails orp dotal ready laid. " , In the Senate to-day an effort was made to reconsider the vote relative to ; tbe final adjodrn meat, bttt failed by fiearly a two-third vote.—r The latter vote was .re-considoree, and the votp to reconsider was postponed 1 indefinitely. This places a reconsideration out of the reach of the | Senate, and if the session . is extended, it mus| be done by a consideration - originating in the House. After the above was written, and just at the close of the afternoon session in the House, a motion was made to make the Sunhury and Erie supplement the special order for to morrow morning which was lost—yeas 45, nays 52. A motion was then made to make it the ! special order for to-morrow evening, which was i also lost—yeas 46, nays 51.
