The following telegraphic despatch from our attentive friend, D. J. Chipman, Esq.," of Philadelphia, informs us of the election of Gov. Pennington. Mr. Sherman withdrew, and Gov. Penainglon was ivcniin-ted by the Republ.oai. Mr. Pcuuingtcn was a support er of Mr. tLrcughocf. The country wili now breathe freer: PHILADELPHIA, F.B. 1, iB6O. To Inquirer. —Gov. Penning ton, of New Jersey , has jest been elected Speaker of the House of Representatives. Mr. Pennington is conservative, and has never belonged to any political organization except that of the Old Line Whigs, flis election to the Speakership is hailed as an evidence of returning good feeling between the different portions of the Union. Printer to the Senate. We tailed to uotice last week, that Geo. W. Buwmiu, furmcrly of this place, who became somewhat notorious on account of big roosters, big hands, and other choice wood cuts, with which he was wont to iilunjin ato the Bedford Gazette, was elected Printer to the Senate on the 17th ult. We copy, on cur first page, the debate in the U. S. Senate on the sdbjeot, and it will be seen that Senator Brcwo, one of the Southern Loeofoco fire-eaters from Mississippi, makes some very serious charges against Bow man, which if true should make hitu the inmate of the penitentiary, instead of the recipient of the emciumeuts of Printer to the Senate.— Senator Brown, iu opposing his election rnado 'he following objection : "That Bowman, in advance of getting the printing, and in direct violation of the law, which requires that the public printer should 'Xicute the work himself, had hargjincti it away. Also that while Su perinteudcut of the Public printing, in viola tion oj the law, he was interested in the very accounts audited by himself s Puliio printer, having bargained with Wendell, the then owner of the Union uewepapor, to take it off of his bauds, Wtudell stipulating to pay Bowman $-0,000 as long as he (Wendell) skoulJ ro main Public printer." Senator Brown com mented with severity uu the am~u_it of m mey paid from the National Treasury to sustain sinking democratic organ?, stating that ho had heard that §15,000, have been paid the Phil adelphia Pennsylvania!* aud §6,000 to the .f/gus of the same city. Baring ;Le course of Lis remnks, iu toply to an interrogatory from Mr. Hale, bo admitted that Attorney General Black knew of this precious piece of currup tion at the tin JO it transpired. Senator Biglcr who is st*id to have been the go-between in arranging these corrupt bargains, endenook to defend or rather excuse Boycawn for this ras cality, and coolly declared that the transaction was an entirely private one, with which lha Senate had no business. These charges are not made by the Oppoai tioo, but by tho Loeofoco® themselves. Tbo penalty attached to the crime with which Bow man is charged, is "imprisonment in the p>eui teutiooary of tho district of Columbia, for any term uot leas than one nor taorc thou five years, and in addition thereto may be fined in *uv sum from one thou'uu Ito ten thousand dollars." Bowuian professes great morality ; let liiai and Buchanan uow deutaud an investi gation of tlm charges cf their friends j if vlioy don't do so, and acquit themselves of the char ges, let the finger of scorn be pointed at them by every bouest peron in the laud. Our frifcDd cf the Delaware County Repub lican, truly says: '-And with this serious charge against biiu, he was elected by the democratic majority in the Sena'e. Mr. Buchanan catered the arena, instructed his supporters in their duty, and succeeded in the accomplishment of bts wishes. It is another instance of the sin gular disposition of the President to reward h'.s enemies and punish his friends. Bowman was dragooned iuto the support of Buehaiun while editing the Gazette at Bedford, and ex hibited his opposition to the President, by dis playing at the head of his paper the name of Mr. Dallas for Chief Magistrate, while the true friends of old Buek were struggling for his nomination. Truly, Mr. Buehauau is grate ful to his opponents. Can honest democrats sanction the election of this man, with a full knowledge of the fact that be has appropriated unlawfully forty thousand dollars of the pub lio funds ?" Iu oonclusion, we would call on all persons to read the debate on tbo subject, in our col ums to-dav. THE TARIFF AND LOCOFOCOISM. The following patriotic Resolutions in rela tion to the Tariff, pn*seJ both brunches of the Pennsylvania Legislature, by a strict parti! vote. Tbo Americans and Republicans of the Senate aud House all voted for them, and ev ery Locofoco of both * branches against them.' Among the ayes iu the House will be found the names of both our members, Messrs. WIL LIAMS and \\ ALKERJ and in the Senate, among the naysy will be found the uarne of Mr. SCIIELL. We hope tho people of Bedford County will remember this fact. The Locofo co party, and particularly tbe Locofoaoa ol Bedford County, pretend to be Tariff ineu, and yet, when a chance is given to express to the world tbe united viows of Pennsylvania, by her Legislature, in favor of such a measure, the Locofoco Senator from this District voted against it! Had it been kuown that Mr. Sebeil was in favor of Free Trade, and in fa vor of the continuance of tbe present hard times, brought about through Locofoco mis management and measures, ha would never have Lvi the chance to misrepresent the in ter, its of the pc. pleof tjj District. Without a change in the pr sent Tariff laws, the peo ple of Pennsylvania need never look for net er times. Mr. Schsil, and the Locofoco party iu this District, in sustaining bim,are accountable. Messrs. Williams and Walker have the thanks of the people for their roles, whilst the coarse of Mr. Sche i, and his putty will be remem bered against them next fail. i Lc fvlloTvng are the Itss' lotions! W ii EREAS, The operation cf the present revenue laws of the general government i* rapidly iuort.siing the national debt, crippling the energies of the nation, retarding public improvements, destroying industrial enter prise, diminishing the value of property, de priving the people of profitable employment by encouraging excessive importation of for eign goods aud products of foreign labor, which ought to be produced by our owu peo ple, aud prolonging a* fioauciul crisis caused by an excessive foreign trade; and whereas, i.a immediate alteration of the laws relative to the duties upon imports is imperatively de manded to inspire coi iidtnee, replenish the national treasury, restore the public prosper ity, and prevent the constant export of Amer ican gold, now annually amounting to the enormous sum of more than seventy millions of dollars; therefore. Resolved, By the Senate and House of Rep resentatives of the Commonwealth of Pennsyl vania, in General Assembly met, That our Senators in Congress be instructed, and our Representatives requested, to earnestly en deavor by their votes and influence to procure such a revision of the revenue laws as wili restore the national credit, prevent rxcossivo injporti'iou of foreigu products, and secure to American labor and enterprise vn ouiple ( reward. Resolved, That the views of the Governor ; of this Commonwealth, an expressed in his ' late annual message, in favor of placing the revenue laws upon such a basis as to afford lo cur great mining and manufacturing interests the iargest incidental protection, ami to sub stitute specific for ad valorem duties on arti cles which from their nature are of equal or nearly equal value, or change the foreign to a homo valuation, are emiucntly sound and practical, aud meet the approval of the Legis lature.

The people of the country will no doubt be surprised that after all the abuse of the Know- Nuthings, by the Locofoeos, they have finally fraternized aud uuited with that party in Con gress. On last Friday, the Southern Aiuert caus put in nomination Mr. Smith of North Carolina. Several of the People's members, from Pennsylvania and New Jersey, gave him a complimentary vote, beiDg assured that the Locofooos would not vote for him. When it was seen that if all the members of the Loco* fooo party would vote for hiut he oould be elect ed, they withdrew their votes from candidates of their own parly, aud voted for him. All voted for him but three. Among the number wbo withdrew from tbeir cwu candidate, were the only tLrse Locotocos from this State, Flor ence, Diutuiick and Montgomery. Mr. Smith would have been elected had not ibe Pennsyl vania aud New Jersey People's members with drawn from him, whom they only supported as a compliment. Mr. Smith was defeated bv three votes. Hereafter, we suppose the L ,00 loco will be as loud in pruiae of the "dark-lan tern mid-night assassin Kuow-Notbings," an they formerly abused and maligned them. But what will our Catholic friends have to say ou the subjecr? Ilow will they relish their votes for an Old Line Kuow-Notbiug Whig? It is thought that au organization will soon be effected.

BOUN A GENTLEMAN.— The WASHINGTON Constitution gives the public a word about, the editors uf that sheet, in which the following paragraph occurs: "The junior editor was born in Ireland.— He was born a gtntleman. This may bo his misfortune, but it is certainly not hU fault; and if it operates prejudicially to .'tis interests or advancement as an American citizen (which he became upwards ot two years ago,) he has yet to learn it." •'We respectfully inquire, as to the meaning of the pbras9 we have italicised. What pe culiarity was there about the birth of Win. )I. B.„wue, junior editor of the Constitution, to entitle biuj to distinction as a 'gentleman?'— How does he happen to know he was 'born a gentleman?' Isn't it probable that he was burn a baby? Is he sure there is any blood in him batter than that of others iu whose fami lies tiries have uever been held? Wouldn't it have been possible for him, by anv form of ed ucation, under any rtress of circumstances, to have become a blackguard? When the j.rinct pal editor of the great national organ of the Democratic patty—such is Mr. Browne's po sition—"iv:'S the country to understand that e was 'born a goiii.vu.an,' it is time tor the Deuucracy to-begin to inquire what the phra c c means."— Cincinnati Commercial. If it wero not tor the well kuowa fact that Bowman, who figures as the senior editor of the Constitution, and who knows oo more about grammar than a Log does about Latin, writes none at ail for that paper, we would suppose that it was from tho pen of that indi viduil himself, from its similarity to aa ex pression of his m a speech, a few years ago, :.t the "Forks of the Xload," in this County. Iu that speech he said : "Gentlemen, behold mo bere, now the editor and proprietor of the Bedford Gazette, yet 1 urns born }>oor, and without shoes and stockings on!" LOCOFOCO LAWSUIT ABOUT OUNGSEISIOSAL PHINT ING.—Advices from Wackington says that the Se nate printing is still the cause of considerable dif ficulty. W'eade l has commenced a lawsuit against Bowman for violation of contract, and sets damage at thirty thousand dollars. Wendell says he give Bowman twenty thousand dollars and the Union newspaper upon agreement that Bowman would let Weniell do all the Senate print icy as long as Bow man was printer of that body. Wen Jell says that at the time be made this trade with Bowman he could have sold the Union to Douglas for thirty tho usar.d dollais. Wendell contends now that Bowman, by making his recent contract with Hives to do the printing lor him, has violated bis contract with him, Wendell. BEDFORD BIBLE SOCIETY. At a meeting of this Society, on Saturday, 28th January, last, at the room? of the Rev. John Lyons Chssio.il Institute, it was Resolved, That the members of churches, and tho citizens of Bedford generally, are earnestly requested to make known any in stance of destitution of the Uuly Scriptures withiu their knowledge, to one of tbe ladv managers of the Bedford Bible Society, or to the Treasurer, Sauiuel Shuck, through whom the party may be supplied.

JOHN LYON, P rU M. 0. E. SHANNON, Sec'ty. Second only to tho skinning of Davis, of Indiana, in tho House the ottier day, was the Hinging of "our own Montgomery" by Messrs.

Whereupon Mr. Covode arose and sta led that he bad written a letter to leading Re publicans pending Montgomery's election, ask ing their support for "our own," at tho latter's request. This fact brought "our own V colors to half-mast, and effcjtually shut that gcutle wan'd mouth. If there is any meanness char acteristic of the dough-faces just at this time, it is tbat of begging Opposition votes before their election, aud repudiating all oonneotion and sympathy with them after their votes have been cast and the victory is wou. Perhaps it may he a lesson to some of the Opposition in the matter ot taking um .itioos Locofocos at , wut tUey claim to be. ."Should it prove aucb j a lesson, uothiog will have boon lost, by the i election of "our owu Montgomery," Horace !

This weather, however, operates considerably against the sale of til 1 kinds of winter goods, and our bu-iuess men are complaining of extraordinary dull times, which we think are not confined to Cbuuibersburg aloue, but are sensibly felt all ovet the State. How is it in your county?— It ts expected that a change will take place af ter the first of April, inasmuch as the farmers may shell out the "almighty dollar," as is gen erally the case. Notwithstanding the pinch ing times, our town is improving rapidly.— A bout one bundled uutldiogs have been erect ed during the past eigbteeu mouths, some of which arc exceedingly largo and handsome, ..nd still there is u great demand for houses, showing that out population is continually in creasing.
