EWI N G made up as'it isof the fag end of all factions that have existed, cither ephemeral or otherwise, for the last fifty years, bids fair to fall to pieces even in.tho incipi ent stages of Its organization. Having no" fixed principles to act as a ceritrd of gravity binding the factions together, each is.disposed to fly off at a tarigenl lire moment its claims upon the aggrega ted mass are disregarded by the other clans of the party. The old Federalists are jealous of the An timasona, and they in their I urn are jealous of the -Federalists. These two main factions are begin ning to look dagger’s points at Cadi other, as the period for the distribution of the “loaves and fish es” approximates—the Federalists insisting that they must have life largest share on account of their long services, while the Antics claim the choicest cuts from tbe loaf by reason of their supe rior adroitness and zeal in the “good.cause.” 1 hen there is a third faction of eleventh hour men —apostate Democrats, who, although they have been but a very few years in the service, are ea gerly grasping at tbe “rewards” they had in view, emoluments of office. These last insist that but for them Gen. Harrison could not have boon elec ted, and-that therefore the Whigs and Antimasons ought to stand back until they are provided for. Of this latter class is Mr. Penrose, who has a. longing, lingering desire to fill a cabinet appoint-; ' tnent, and through the influence which that would give, him,.provide fur the little band of apostates who bring on his skirls.v This individual would , fain be a luire-wnr&a- in the new administration, a “power behind the throne greater than tho throne i itself;” but then he Is met at.the threshold by tho i leader of the second faction, TnAnnEus .Stevens, I whoso cunning! is''unbounded, ami told to stand . back and jet the great god-father of the celebrated “tapeworm” take bis jilacc. ; Tlien there ie the notorious Bußnpu'Es.i^bd'also'aspiresydVpbwer, 1 and who will not silently brook to have bis claims ' postponed. These three worthiei constituted tfic triumvirate during the famous buckshot' war, and suppose thpt because they managed Joseph Ritner so handsomely, they copld also regulate the ac tions of the “President in leading, strings.” But then,;up,junipa the. old Federalists, the - Sergeants, the BiNNErs. tlie Chamders’s, and a host offers that could be named; and scout the , idea of such ,mOhias , Stevens and Penrose getting iht > tbs cabinet. They insist that Gen. Harrison must keep alppf 1 from such deleterious influcn.ee,' and that lie must select ifor his"chief .ofllcers such men as they recommend. In the mean time, Ste . ■ yens has got the start of all his competitors, and is determined -“by book or. by crook’* to have the ' Poof Office placed under his care. If : lihrshcceeds Federalists ‘will show their teelhat Once, andif lie w 'disappointed, he will v the other factions* who oppose liira. So that,: in either .event,, we may expect each a scratching and clawing among . the leaders' of Harrisonism in Pennsylvania, as has not been witnessed for many years. In the : mean time a candidate, for.Opyernpr is to-be nomi- I nated, and the different factions above enumerated are already'disputing about the candidate. “Some thirty or forty names in different parts of the State -vare.mentloned,'and, tlie 'claims of many.of .them • " urged; with no-little teal.

' 4 ‘Upon, this subject, the Pennsylvanian of Mon day week remarks as/follows“The deep inter est felt on this subject, by aH .clasBes,pf ( the com munity, is abundant proof of its paramount impor . lance. It is by no means surprising that it is viewed indifferent lights°by different individuals. To the ultra bankmen, the 15th of January appears to bo a day fraught with ruin and distress, while ; to the cool, dear-sighted democratic advocates of, tlie law and of bank reform, it seems to bo merely a day when justice, long delayed, is to bo again measured out to the people. The extravagant no tions of the bank partisans, would astonish us, did wo notso oflpn witness their delusion. They have made propositions in various quarters, to. postpone the day of resumption for six months, for a year, and even for a longer period. A correspondent of a neighboring paper, professing to bo democratic, has suggested- the postponement for a year, and even indulges the ho'pe_pf obtaining.the sanction of the Legislature and of Gpy, Porter. No one who >vill take the ■ trouble to read Gov. Poster’s .letter to the citizens of Pittsburg, during the month of September last, can for a moment entertain this belief-* In; that letter, the. Governor stated , dis tinctly that he would notryield-.his assent to any law for the further, procrastination .of the resump tion, Ho stated also tfiat the day fixed, was in his opinion *OO remote at the time, and He could not and'would not postpone it. By this letter, full notice was given to the hanks and* to the publjjc, of the course the Governor would pursue, .and if allure no't prepared I Tor it, the fault belongs to them, or to the system on which the banking institutions are organized. We have availed oufselvcs of the opportunity afforded by the visit of the Governor to.this.Clty* to ascertain whethor-his views on this grave subject remain unchanged, and it affords us much pleasure to be able to assure our, readers on the best authority, that no postponement of fii\> day. of-resumption bpybnd'-the 15th of January next, n»i7/ receive his approbation. ~Uq is as-ahxious as | any one can. be, to relievo the community from embarrassment and distress, but he is not of opin ionthaf it is the true mode, of ministering this Re lief, to entail upon us for a day longer than is al ready allowed, the hopeless evils of the present suspension.- The Governor and his friends' had confidentially beliaved, that after his Pittsburg Jetter above referred to, no idle hopes would be in dulgod,;by the (ranks, of any further acquipscence .on the part of Gov, Porter, in the present suspen sion,-but if they are determihedjo delude the pub lic, in the very teeth of the Governor’s assurances to~ tluTc~ohtr.Try, t 1 fey'thliBl b~c permitted to solace 'selv^'* themselves with'their, own folly, find learn when the day of trial arrives, how utterly groundless have hecn their anticipations.” flesumpliim nj Specie’Payments. —The.N. York Journal of Commerce, in speaking of the expressed determination'of tiie Governor of Pennsylvania ndi to put off the, day of resumption any further than that fixed upon by the legislature, says“We honor tlio wisdom and firmnes.s of Governor Por ter in this matter. He Juntas that if ‘resumption, qs it is called,’ was to he postponed till some, of ■tiie banks ‘feel.it perfectly convenient to-resume,’ it might he postponed forever. For 3J, years; with the exception of iffihort period, the banks of Penn sylvania have been in a statd of suspension; and if any of them are still unprepared for resumption, we say unhesitatingly that they had better wind up. Get tiie rotten ones out of "the way, whether large or small., They are a de,ad weight upon tlio mass.” , * . Aktiaiailhrjl Reviving! in announcing the Harrison triumph some weeks ago, wo said that the wiiios were regaling them selves, with it, hut that it was claimed by the atili mtuom. And wo instanced Ri.tner’s administra tion.to siiow. that the ‘-‘rear rank” was 'then, nod' would again be assigned to the wmos. Tlie last (uty days have satisfied usihflLsuch at least is the relative position of -parties which the “insolent aniinuisoni ” are laboring to cffectT'" The intrigues which are enacted at this,place round the electoral college; and which the “way-faring man cannot err” in seeking,'are os noveras disgraceful. But they show us, as the shadow shows the substance in sunshine, that.the..tyliigs area “whippable arti cle,” as Stevens designated them, and the factious combination that controlled Ritner’s administration is in the ascendant. The Story- is' told at the cor ners of.the streets and is this:, Durrowes, Stevens, Parke, Cooper, &c., came here to confer with oth er of their ancient fellows in the anlirnasdnic lodge, as soon as known that; General Harrison h nl gained the state; they settled' the distribution of offices so far as Pennsylvania is concerned;, and [ burrowes was sent to Penrose to tell him ho could i:o‘ go-into, the Cabinet, {or Stevens must be Post Mailer General ; and to Rijner, to tell him he must put up with the Custom-house Jn Philadelphia; by which arrangement the Executive power of the General Government, would be wielded with ener gy, ;and without any troublesome scruples to se cure an election for Governor in Pennsylvania to suit—not the whigs, nor the moderate mass oT anti ifi o sons — bn I the' EOJIGE <if anti masonic. Knight Templare.—Vie need not say that the lod<m Is composed of Rilrier, Stevens, the.two B.urrowcs r Elder and Ellmaker, Ogle who is to be the candi date for Governor, the Parke’s, and, a few under strappers. At the same time a young timessew' ver was dispatched to gather (lie. najries~of the electorate: a petition ifor Stevens fur the -appoint [ merit; of Postmaster'' General; before, they, could come together, consul t-as to expediency, canvass the unpopularity .of>Stevens, .arid possibly deter mine against |;is claims in a. body. , Since the col legßis assembled at this place, ilia said some twenty members.,have .affixed .their signatures to bispetition.

Wo'.said another thing a feW weeks ago; that the Cohesion of the Harridon forces' would be bro ken in the process of organising the administra tion, and the distribution of patronage. We an swer for it that wo are right' So fat' as Pennsyl vania is involved wo want no better confirmation than the success of the Slovens faction, and .the discomfiture of tiro wings, the and moderate antimasons. But there is additional confirmation. . The electoral college was elected to cast the ballots of the people.' This is their only trust, and assuming another is usurpation Using the weight which was thus placed in their hands for a distinct purpose to procure appoint ments against the sense of the mass, is .betraying the people. Casting that weight into the scale in favor of a few to the exclusion of .the many is a violation of democracy—the ground .work of.a re publican government. / ■ During the Presidential canvass, we said anoth er thing which we beg our democratic friends who voted for Harrison to recollect—for it is now con firmed. We said repeatedly that deserting their party wat helping to introduce the authors of the mischiefs in the Ritnor administration, and tlid buchshot'tdari intoHhe general government. Wo trust they will now "see howto vaiue~thegnin of abandoning their party, and will return to it.as the best after all. The firm democrats, who adhered to tho, administration of Martin Van-Buren, and to their own integrity, wo would again congratulate on tlm prospeci before them.- Lot them but cul tivate HARMCfNYi ho firm in the-support of their principles, and UNITKD, when the battle comes, and the victory will be theirs, both at the Gover nor’s and,the Presidential election. Canai/ CoMMisaioNKns.'—The; federal newspa pers, since tho clection, BayB:tlie_Crawford Demo crat, have made the discovery that there is some thing very wrong in the present mode of selecting the Canal Commissioners.. When, Joseph Rimer was,. Governor, .the plan suited- them extremely \yell. They could find nothing wrong in tlidjcop duct. pf Thaddeus Stevens and his fellows. It was O, K. with them then.. Now that David R. -Porter.is Gpvernor, arid*the feds'have 'succeeded ■ both branches of-the Legislature, it is not'to their minds—they go in for an alteration of the system. The hypocrisy of their wailing, and the manifest object of the change are both so ap parent, that we trust that those who haveitin their power will throw in their mite to stay the inroads of these Vandals upon the time-honored customs of the Commonwealth. ' The present Board of Canal, .Commissioners are as competent .and efficient as any ever appointed: totlie office., Thcybave studiously refrained from interfering, in their official capacity Jn the cam paign just finished. Their-disinterested career af* fords an’ contWHt wUh lliG Cornipt and licentious conducCof their notorious predecessors, who openly used the ad vantages of their situation tb forward the election of Rither. Under the ju dicious management of^tho’present Board* tho.in- improvements of this State have progressed rapfdly towards completion, and the old works have been placed in a more permanent and lucra tive position. ; ■ The vilest slanders are'now concocted to effect this new scheme of designing, ofTice-hunting’denu agogues. The very charges proved upon the for mer Board of Canal Commissioners, arc now brought up in judgment against the present one! Every intelligent mind must be convinced, that this new, project is nothing more nor less., than an attempt to seize upon the improvements of the Stale as an electioneering (engine for the next Gu bernatorial campaign. They would place in pow er men like Stevens, who, with his understrappers and satellites, would bnCe more re-en?ict the scenes of perjury/forgery, and corruption so riffj in 1838. Let every good citizen set his face against the li centious manoeuvre. Mn. MuiiLENßEno.—The Heading Jefferson De mocrat of Tuesday week, ih noticing the return to that place of tho Horn Henry A..Muhlenberg, af. tor tho fulfilment of tiiS mission to Austria* gives tho subjoined account of the spontaneous'and en thusiastio greeting with Which he was received by his fellow citizens; It Was a well deserved com pliment, creditable alike to those by whom it was offered, and honorable* as ll miis.t have been grati fying, to him Who Was the object of it. . Mr, Aftlkknhbrg tit Aome’;—olit respected fellow’ citizen, Henry A. Muhlenberg, reached home yes terday morning, after a protracted, absence of a bout tvvo years and a half, in the service of the country -at the Court of Austria. In a town where Mr. Muhlenberg is so well known and so highly esteemed, and where he haa’i a single enemy, it was but to be expected that his return would elicit a spontaneous exhibition Of the kindly feeling which is entertained'’towards hint by all olassesof his fellow townsmen; - Accordingly, as soon as it was known, that he would certainly ar rive in .the morning cars, and hours before the usur al houf of their coming, the spacious streets about the depot were crowded with citizens anxious-.to take.him.by.the .hand and welcome him liuide,— There were perhaps three thousand persons on the ground, who received him .with .hearty cheers arid the Warmest manifestations of popular gratification. Tho peal of artillery, the ringing of bells, & strains of martial music contributed their share to the’ex pression of .public joy. A procession of citizens, jvas organized under the direction of Mr. Darr, as sisted by Gen. High, Geo. D. B.'Keim, Charles Kessler, and Isaac Eckert—at the head of which walked Mr. Muhlenhcrgaml General GeorrioMi Keith. The ln' C'hesmit street, down which it proceeded to'fifth, tin Fifth to Penn, and, thence to the house of Mr. Muhlen berg, where it was briefly addressed by Mr. Muh; lehberg, apd. then, dismissed, after giving three -huzzas for orir-distinguiahed fellow citizen; Got up on the spur of thotriomcrit,-without any studied preparation, this Was efthe tiiost emhusiastio character, and ribrild hoihp.htHer’thph' highly gratjfying to him, who n’as.its object. 1 - ExTRAOUtHNARV CASE OS’. AUduCTIO.V OF WHITS GIRLS FROM* THE CITV OrNsW York.; . If the, following, which we extract from tho New -York Sun, be true, it has hardly a parallel in the Urinals of history:—‘‘A very ’ pairifukrnmor has reached us in relation to the kidnapping of some fifteen-or twenty young white women from this city, arid of their captivity among tbenativochiefs on tho alave coast of Africa. Forthe-jlast two years’ several vessels have left this port whosoap poSrainco was any tiring but mercantile, and - gem eralrumor'calledlbUrnpiratese-SomßCambnearer. lhe trulh, and lt is said that (Me of these vessels assumed the charac ter of a paßsongar-pactevfpbad lop Jew Orleans and Havnna.andtho captain by the aid .of a per eon well known in this city, Wait ifo tbo-Poinls,-. and also to the other infected districts of our city, and addressing themselves to the best looking gifts, tendered them a free and even went So fat as to give them heW dresses, trinkets, &c. The poof girls Were taken on board in the stream, in detachments, 'and. every thing was given them to render their position comfortable, and commit ted to. the care of a matron, who assumed the char acter of tho captainVWife. Thus freighted, tW vessel left our waters and reached Havanaun a lew days. There the unsuspecting girls Were inform ed that they could not then lahd, hctaUsb the au thorities of the island had ordered the vessels to be quarantined at Matanzaa. In a few days etlo Bailed apparently hound to Matanzaß, but in Iruth lief sails were spread for tlie.coaat of Africa On a slaying expedition. Tlie length, of the voyage Created some uneasiness, tvhichf however, was quieted by the good usage and contihUcd ffoltc of the wholo pariyi On their reaching .the Coast, preparations having bech made for their arrival, they were sent on shore, and, as the painful nlmor says,. they were, exchanged by these abductors, with tho chiefs, for slaves, und one.young while woman was exchanged for fifty prime negroes.— The whole party\ras thus instantly sent into the interior of Africa ns the slaves of tho cliiefs, per haps never to hoar from their'own land again. This account is said to have reached this city by the capture of one of the war parties, in which two of the white girls were, who were .owned’by tho chief, and who gave a letter to.bo sent to the coast, narrating tho mannorof their’ abduction and cap tivity.” Common Schools. —Under this caption the last Harrisburg Reporter has the following: * An act was passed at the last session of the le gislature, requiring the of school direejors, which were, heretofore made to the Superintendent on the first Monday in June, or as soon after that day as practicable, and to include the proceedings of the year ending on the first-Mbnday of June.— W 6 have been informed by the Superintendent that the neces'saryA/anfo were leiVfpr the directors at’the offices of the commissioners of each bounty* It is very desirable that all the ; districls, that-havo not yet sent in.their.repbrts, should do so immedi* ately, that the Superintendent may be enabled to lay his annual report before the legislature very soon after its meeting.- - > Harrisburg Reporter, Coal Trade.— The Pottsville-Miner’s Journal, of Saturday week, lias the.fallowing information relative to coal operations in the Anthracite region: ,1; This week will probably close the shipments of Coal from this regions The quantity shipped du ring thelieason is, in rbqnd numbers, 423,000't0n5, falling short oPthe shipments last season, -about 15,000 tons—and less by 100,000 fons than the shipments of 1837. .
