Wc regret that our columns will not permit ns to In}' before our readers, at.ibis time, Mr.-.Hueb nnnn's late speech, defending Martin Van Huron's administration from the charge, of extravagance— several copies of which wc have recently received Loin our friends in Washington. It was delivered in reply to Mr. Crittenden of Kentucky, who pro duced the charge, under' four several specifications, and challenged Mr. Duchanan personally to an swer them. He must have regretted‘hi? defiance, however, for the reply thus drawn forth was a masterly and -triumphant vindication of'the Cxpi-, ring Administration, from the ifnfoumled slander. The speech Ss decidedly opc'tif the finest delivered m Congress this session—manly'in its*lonc, 910- I quenl in its language, and convincing in its argu- j inents. The Keystone says: ‘'Ho has summed. up the whole in one paragraph,. which for clear-' ness, force add beaut}', has seldom been surpassed in that talented assembly,” | considered this a proud day for the expiring, administration. It presented a moral spectacle on wliich the world might gazo with wonder. In an expenditure'of one hundred aud thirty millions of dollars during the period offoar.years, the Senator from Kentucky bad only been able to enumerate j lour'items of extravagance,’nnd-each one of these had been fully explained.

[Fof thb Pennsylvanian.] THE CASfi'OFv’HUTTER AND, CANTINE. Messrs, Editors; Tim North Amoricanr.pf'Friday.last, 1 perceive, contains an articlb:cehsufing in strong terms the conduct of Governor Porter mgrantihg a pardon to Messrs. Hutler and Oantino, in the libel prosccu-* lion brought ngainst them by Thaddcus Stevens. Whilst the abuse of,Gov; Porter for this net was confined to the ribald auii-masonic presses of this state, it wpuld perhaps, have been an act of supe rerogation to ychtiifo upon a'formal vindication of the Executive; but when a paper, circulating in the refined circles of the “city of brotherly love,” and having at least; pretensions to respectability, becomes the echo of their vituperation, it is due to the enuso of truth.to vindicate tha Governor from unmerited aspersion.. This'can best be done by stating n// . the circumstances connected with the prosecution referred to, which the federal presses have studiously refrained from doing. -They are briefly as follows: , Pending the recent presidential campaign,. Messrs, flutter and Canline were publishers of a paper at Harrisburg called the Magician. In the course of the campaign, their .paper contained an article animadverting in pretty strong terms lipon certain demoralizing practices said tobavd been 'by the members of the' Tippecanoe Club rit Gettysburg. The article did not however, as is now asserted by the federal presses, charge them with the “administration of aniock^flacra- incut to the followers’ of £id Tip.” This was parVofthcarticlc,init referred exclusively to charges, made against certain members' of the Harrison parly in Pickaway county, Ohio, and had no ref erence to Stevens and. his club, whatever. All ;hat the -article did charge Stevens with, was sing ng.Tippecanoe- songs, and saying Tippecanoe prayer*— the .former of - which was undoubtedly true, the latter perhaps more doubtful.. Stevens felt it would seem, and,commenced otptfsecution; not, however, in the colmty of Dauphin, where the defendants re side, but xu his own comity of Adams. Here was a cleart'fo/a/i/m <f more right to 'to taße uieni'to; Ydrgipnt, .the domin ions of the autocrat Nicholas. The prosecution was’nevertheless recognized by the anti-masonic authorities there, and the.defcndants made lb give, the excessive.bail pf $5,000 fqr their appearance in Adams countyj ..They did appear at August sess ions, IS4O, and the trial was put o]f! Bail in the same sum was again .exacted. They re-appeared at the following November sessions,,-when it ap peared, upon investigation, ihat'ihe 1 dnti-.masnnic commissioners and sheriff had observed none of the requisitions of the acts. of. the general assembly-in relation to the mariner of drayving ju rors and guarding lh‘i wheels in whieh the ballols arc deposited. The act requires that “the sheriff and commissioners shall impress their respec tive skals upon the wheclß"«ii7A'tfea//ng 'ivax”’ &c.I lore there was no more ofa seal discqmable npon cither whpel, than there is perhaps now dis cernible upon the palm of-your hand, and \he most important safe-guard was a piece of while liipe of “yarn,”—that word of ominous import in the whig vocabulary!! All this, too, following on the very footsteps of numerous judicial decisions in almost every county of the state, rendering the duly of.tho sheriffs and commissioners so plain, that its non observance could not possibly’be excused on the plea oi ignorance. The result of this system of drawing jurors (no doubt purely accidental !) was, to bring for a number of successive terms scarcely any one else into the jury-box but well-known an ti-masons. It was also further made manifest, at the same term, that the cqurt there had not been in the habit of, issuing the precept enjoined by. the act of assembly*, in pursuance of which the officers of the court proceed in the performance of their duty, and that the anti—masonic officers Itever obeyed the act of assembly, in issuing their venire. I*'or these reasons, the defendants moved that the indictment previously relumed Against them by jurors thus drawn,'be quashed , and so clear and well-founded was (he application, that neither Mr. Stevens nor Mr. Penrose, who'was there to assist In the sacrifice of the printers, offered the least re sistance. The indictment was quashed, and the defendants were again recognized in very excessive bull, to appear before llie same august tribunal at the next sessions.. VlSA'S—Messrs. Barclay, Brooke, C:\sc.

During the debate on this question,- some feeling was elicited. The Democratic Senators who participated in it were Messrs. Brown, Gibbons, Deadly and others—on the Federal side Messrs.

This was the plan pursued by the Bunks before they entered the field of poli tics, and it worked very well—would it not be better for them to fall back again into the old track (if honesty and fair dealing? But,-Mr. Editor, the Banks are endeav oring to manufacture public opinion in fav or of the issue of small notes. One of their plans is this: they know that-thc mass of the Federal party arc with them—but this is not sufficient. They draw up petitions, and in duce ns many of the Democrats as they can wheedle.into the measure to sign them.

But to de feat these lawless institutions in their ob ject, it is incumbcnt on the' Democrats to be up and doing.
