We proceed, fellow-citizens, to illustrate the conduct of the late Federal Legislature, and to explain their motives in passing cer tain bills, which the Governor, as an honest and upright man, was compelled to veto! We will now refer to the bill relative to the CHESTER COUNTY PRISON. 11l consequence of the iniquitous appor tionment bill of I'BSB, the federalists had a majority ofsix or seven last session in .the. and two f |n_the Jlquse of Represen tatives. The people cannot have ..forgotten! tlf ?d b' :he fed- Hie utter abhorrence expresses >j. the k cralists, for months preceding the elections, against asking for, or receiving office. They were anxious only to REFORM ABUSES, according to their own account! jßut no sooner had knavery, debauchery, and acci dent, given theni an ascendancy in both branches of the Legislature, than fool disclosed itself. Their first act'was to remove every Democrat within their legis lative reach, su.ch as clerks, sergeant-at arms, &c. &c. This being,accomplished, they next cast their eyes abroad for VIC TIMS, and WERE SO KEEN-SIGHT ED, AND SCENTED, AS TO LIGHT UPON THE KEEPER OF, THE CHES TER COUNTY PRISQNi a gentleman of unblemished reputation, and ol great moral worth.. .He was, ardemperat,- however, and -hid'refused'lb enemies of Itis political Ltith.' Ho hi|l with: . stood the allurements' and sodii’ccmentsof) the.times, mi. matter.whether approached' by flattery, promises- of official favor, or pccu-! niary reward. He" preferred being cast on the veorld_pemiylcss. tonbaruloninghis,prin ciples. and hence the reason why the feder alists stooped from their high estate, TO ENTER THE WALLS OF A LOATH SOME PRISON TO GLUTTHEIR VEN GEANCE. The Governor,.as a co-ordin-( ate brrmch pfr..thejLegislatui;e r had a. right and it was his duty to protect ail honest ci tizen against the malice of his political,en emies.. Had.he been governed, alone,' by his se'nse of justice to an individual, or the dictates of ordinary Immunity, his interpo sition,'in our view, and in live view of every •honest and benevolent man would hnve.becn perfectly justifiable; Byit.tlie Governor, in addition to his sense of justice and humani ty, had other and unanswerable reasons for exercising his constitutional prerogative,— a prerogative, which none Gut tyrants on those disposed to become tyrants, nave ever I complained of. The wisdom of the,framers of the constitution, in giving that power to (he Executive never manifested itself more distinctly than on the. various occasions which gave rise to its exercise, during the last' winter and spring. The federalists thirsting for vengeance upon all who da red to acknowledge that he was ever fainted with democracy,.instead of “BETTERING THE TIMES)” as they lavishlypromised, occupied their, time, and 'devoted thefr at tention, almost exclusively,- in searching for the best latent inode of assailing and des troying the character and standing of dem ocrats, occupying high as .well as subordin ate offices, and contriving' the most artful way to fob.them, and their families, of the means of subsistence. They were not only dioposed, but they actually carried it into execution, as far as their legislative action could reach,-every kind of mean and extra, contemptible persecution and proscription; against the true disciples of the Jefferson school of politics. We have said, and, wc again say, it was the duty of the Executive to arrest such tyrannical conduct. We ap peal to every honest man, whether in the present instance he transcended his duty. The facts connected with the Chester co. Prison, are briefly these: The act for' the 'management ami regulation of tho prison,, passed on the Ist of February, 1839; and, in consequence of the prison being unfinish ed, did not go into operation, until 'April, 1840. Before sufficient time had elapsed to give the system a fair trial, although not a shadow, of dissatisfaction existed, or had -been ■expressed, solar as the operations, of Hieliiw had been tested, a change was sought. By whom? THE PEOPLE? NO! for a vast.inujority of all parlies-.were opposed to any further legislation on the subject. By the visitors of the prison, consisting of the Deputy Attorney General, the Judges of (he Courts,'the Grand Jurors; and the Commis sioners? Not bv tJiem. On the contrary, the Grand Jury in their report at the last February term, declared unanimously their satisfaction with the institution under exist ing regulations.. In addition to this;in May ■last, since the Governor’s veto was placed in thc~hands of, and read by every person’ interested in the nffairsof the prison, '-with in the county of Chester, a’grand jury com posed of men of all parties, have reported to the Court their entire, satisfaction'," with the regulation and management, and with.the ufficers-bf the. prison.' 'By whom was the repeal of the original,act ‘sought? Why, by some one, two, or.three •person’s, whose in-, satiable thirst for an office,’- let it bo ever so small a one, contemplated the. change and. prostration of-a system of prison discipline proved by experience, in theMoyamensing prison’, to be.'not only: wholesome,, but the most economioaland suitable; yet devised,. These inen : appealed to tlielr political asso ciates' in- the legislature to aid them in. (heir designs;'and they, regardlcss.of 1 the public welfare,' lent a willing hand. •Theyoriginal act gaveltf the COURT the appointment of THREE; and the COMMISSIONERS of the county TWO. of.thc Board'of Inspec tors; The act vetoed by the Governor,, re versed the matter. The Gourt was , to-mp pbihtrtwdi'ahd, it|ie > Cpnimtisioners three. Tpr vrimt reason? Why thorJudgea ofrtlic cburt'aredemocratß.antl.iheCommissidners are •federalists, and therefore a mnjority be-j ing appointed by the latter, the .KEEPER, Carlisle , P«. Thursday July 1, 1841. a DEMOCIIAT. Vvould have been forthwith removed. This was the governing, and o'n ly motive for change. The politic good had nothing to do with ,the matter. When the original act passed. Judge Darlington was on the bench. He had been re-appointed by Governor Ritner, under peculiar circum stances, in December, 1838. He died, and Judge Belli a democrat; succeeded him.— White Bell, and his associates remained on the bench, there was no hope ofa change of kecp.er. He had discharged the duties of his office to the satisfaction of the official visitors, and having a walk and conversa tion void of offence, he could only be reach ed, by a reckless federal legislature. He. was saved from immolation by the Execu tive,-who shrunkTrpm the heartless-task of consigning him and his family to destruc tion, when not a blemish or the semblance of a fault attached to him, officially or other wise. For a further illustration of this hon est, upright, and patriotic exercise of Hie veto power, we refer the reader to the mes sage itself, to be found on the journal of the House, page 729. If is only necessary to give it a perusal, to be convinced of its un answerable character. Out of flie county of Chester, no man has a reasonable right to complainof the course of the Executive, in this particular matter. Within the. county of Chester, public opinjon commends and approves of the fearless and honest veto which saved aTRISON AND ITS MAN AGEMENT FROM BEING HURLED INTO THE VORTEX OF I’OLITICS, to gratify the aspirations of a fcw l hungry,o_fli_cc THE CASE OF WILLIAM A.' SAIITIL, . The .next caseto which wo call ybiiV at tention, fellow citizens. Is ofa.pec.vil : iat s y.Ua-.: racter. When we have briefly narrated the circumstances which induced the 'Governin' Ito-Avithhold-his--signature,-wo-belicv,c. you] will agree with us that a' more flagitious.at tempt was never made, by ex parte legisla tion, to diVcst'a citizen of his rights arid plunder him of his properly. The bilTvetocd by the Governor bore the plausible tillc.of.' 'Jlnucl for.chabling reli-. giotts societies within this Commonwealth to. purchase and~ .hold lands .for. burying grounds and churches, AND FOR OTHER I’U EPOSES.” To that part of the act re lating to religions societies,-the governor had not the slightest objection arid, made none. Tie “FOR.OTHER PURPOSES,” howev er, was a section which, when reported to the House of Representatives, by the chair man of the committee of estates and escheats bore the title of "Jhi act to quiet the title to certain lands granted for the use of Tfm. Ji. Smith in tail mail-general '.” It was offer ed and carried us an amendment to the act first recited, and the federalists, with their usual regard fur candor, in consequence of the title, have attempted, to make you be lieve, fellow citizens, that the Governor ve toed abill having relation, exclusively,■ 'to “RELIGIOUS SOCIETIES.” Such is not the fact. In hisveto the Governor stales that after the bill had been in his possession he received a letter from William A. Smith, Esq-of Cambria county, remonstrating a gainst the 18th section of the proposcd-bill becoming a law, the section that \yas em braced in the words, “AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES” —and he then proceeds to as sign his reasons fur returning it to the Sen ate, in which it originated without liis sig nature. It seems that Win. Smith, D. D. conveyed to trustees certain Inndsin trust fo;: his grandson, William R. Smith,and the ELDEST MALE HEIR of his body, law fully begotten. . William R. Smith and his wife, afterwai'ds executed a deed to Thomas Montgomery, with the intent of barring the estate tail, or in other words, to deprive William A. Smith, THE ELDEST MALE HEIR, of all Interest in the lands in ques tion, contrary to the intention of William Smith the grantor. The deed was nut ac knowledged, or if acknowledged, no entry thereof was made, and therefore, defective; and without any notice to Win.,A. Smith,a law was passed confirming and making val in the deed,,in like manner nnd with like effect, as if it hndheen acknowledged, arid an entry maife on the record of the Court of Common Pleas/. The remonstrant William A... Smith,-sels forth in his - remonstrance .to the Governor, among other things, that “he being the eldest son of William R. Smith, (and of course life party most deeply inter ested) was opposed tathe passage. of the bill; and further,that up to the time of its pas sage; he was unaware of the existence oftlie deed of William Smith, conveying ii> trust the property iri question to two trustees, or that such an instrument.of writing had ever been Recorded —nor .was lie aware of the ex istence of a deed from Win’. R.. Smith and wife; to Thomas Montgomery; and further, that he never received any consideration for the property thus deeded away without his knowledge or.colrisent.”. , Under these circumstances the Governor returned the bill to the senate; remarking, that,“as the act may dispose of the whole" question of; the title, in regard to the' lands to-which it, refers, it'would be proper that the parties whose rights ,are i to be' affected by it should.be heard. ; Legislation fur cur ing alleged defects in titje should, be atten ded with great; caution and, upuii full notice'. Injustice-may,be done by ex par/c enact ments, and T; would,, respectfully suggest whether hi all suoh cases as that for which, • this cigiiteenthisection proposes to provide, it would not be better tp/confcr ,"upon, the Cmir.tspf Common Pleas of the proper coun ty, if they do not already possess it, the pow er, to. correct or -amend the,records-of.,the court, mine protune, if they should deem it right and proper-ao to do, upon I fuJlTep rcscptation.of all the fac|s, onpolice ]to, the parties,interested, .iThust.BU.parties,.wili ;.be heard.; “oinjuatice.can be-done to. any ■ii Now» iri,;aU ; cahdot;, and .in the nataoof aUithatisjust.w.o.askyou.fellowpitizeris, who that has any pretence to honesty would ' “OBR COUNTRY RIGHT OR WRONG.” objcc.t to giving all the parties concerned .a hearing.in court? Is not that the proper tribunal'before which to investigate the mat ter, where and when both parties can have an opportunity of examining and cross-ex amining the witnesses? Who among ’you will be. secure in your property, if a law of this kind can be passed at the instance of a lawyer, who happens to be a member of the legislature, without notice and without n chance to produce evidence of the validity of title. If such conduct can be justified or: tolerated-for an instant, there is an- end to every thing like security to life or property. William A. Smith who claims.to be the eld est male heir of William R. Smith, resides in Cambria county. It was an'easy matter, ififairness and honesty, were, at thcboltom of the transaction, to have consulted him.— The presumption is, however, that all was not fair, —all was not honest, —or he would have been notified of the intention of the party or parties to ’legislate him' out of his rights and plunder him of his property —the gift of his great grand-father. It was "well known to all concerned in the stealthy leg islation which took place, that* William Av Smith resided in, and was . Prolhoniitary of Cambria county. There is not a shadow of excuse fur the attempt made to divest him of liis property without notice; Ad there is not a man in this wide world, whose con ceptions of honesty remain untainted by the tricks, interested men learned in the law,- ar efeed to play ofl’-and practice in and out of the Legislature, that will -condemn the Governor fur vetoing the„act..we,have re;, 1 “ H. IS(JEHLkR; Chairman. Jjvcob Secretary'. THE COAL.,' IRON AND OF ; - Thethree' -great' staple products .of' the" Keystone State are her Coal and Iruntimes and her Wheat. Some interesting statistics with reference, to each of these were pre sented at the Business Convention at Har risburg in an excellent speech.by Mr, Hen-, ry K-r Strong, of Schuylkill - comity;--from which we compile the following -summary. About one-fourth of the State, comprising more than seven millions of acres, seated mostly upon navigable waters leading to ten States of- the Union, is one vast bituminous coal-field, filled with lime and iron-stone, and possessing as fine a soil as ever the sun shone upon.- Anthracite Coal no other State possesses, so that the whole Union must purchase of Pennsylvania forever. Twenty one years ago, when the trade first com menced, only 365 tons were taken from the Lehigh mines to market; there are now mined more than one million of tons annu ally. About 800,000. tons are sold to other States, anil 200,000 consumed in Pennsyl vania. In Great Britain about thirty mil lion tons are mined annually, of which only six hundred and twelve thousand two hun dred and forty-five are exported to foreign countries. In 1834, less than 4)000,000 tonswere used for fuel, and more than 25,- 000,000 tuns were consumed in driving the machinery of manufactories. This is lhe’ true policy which Pennsylvania must imi tate; a large portion of her coal and iron must both be consumed in propelling her own machinery, and driving her own cotton, woollen and iron factories. ■ . ..- ■ The quantity of pig jron annually manu factured in Pennsylvania is estimated at 100,000 tons, dr one-third of all that is made in the; United Stales. It may be in creased so as to ineet the demand of the whole Union, though as yet the annual value is estimated only $3,000,000,. The a mount of pig iron”inade annually in Great Britain is valued at .$28,000*000,-while’the value given to it by manufacturing part of it into her bar iron, hardware and cutlery, is estimated at $90,000,000 more. Pennsyl vania sends iron to the Northern States, and one-fifth of it is returned to her in manufac tured articles; she sends them coal and flour,, and receives in.return cotton fabrics and ar ticles that she ought to make herself. The Census returns show that there were raisedin Pennsylvania in 1839,' 12,029,756 bushels of wheat, one-sixth of all that is raised jnjlhe. IJpion; the arinualvalue,w)ien made into flour, may be estimated at $13,- 029,755. . England, Scotland arid Wales .c0ntain.56,833,330 acres of land, of which 13,605,600 acrcsure arable, 20,408,400 pas turage, 8,935,000 forests and gentlemen’s parks,,and 12,885,330 incapable of cultiva tiori. Pennsylvaniacqntains thirty millions of acres of land, not more than three million of which are incapable of being converted into.tillage and pasturage. Arid yet Great Britain.which in 1700, when her population was mqjnly agricultural, produced only 14,- 000 bushels of wheat, in 1830, under, the stimuluus of her manufactures, increased the amount to one hundred arid thirty millions —nearly twice as much as is. raised in the whole United plates. Thus it will be'seen that the value,of the grcat.staples of Penh sylvnnia.is annually—of Coal, $5,000,000; of .Iron,-$5,00(1,000; arid; of Wheat, 000,000—making an aggregate, of $23,000,- 000.—A’«t> York .Tribune.

With every breath of air that stirred among those branches in the sunshine, some tremb ling, changing light, would'fall upon her grave. Garth to earth, ashes tQ ashes, dust to dust. Many a young hand dropped in its little wreath, many a stilled sob was heard. Some—and they were not a few— knelt down. All were sincere and truthful in their sorrow. “The service done, the mourners stood apart, and the villagers closed around to look into the grave -before the pavement stqneshould he re-placed. One called to mind how he had seen her sitting on that, very spot, and how her book had fallen on her lap, and she was gazing with a pensive I face upon, the sky. Another told, how he had wondered much that one so delicate as she, should be so bold; how'.she had never feared to enter the church alone at night, but had loved to linger there when all was quiet; and even to climb the tower stair; with no more light than that of * the ipoon rays stealing through; the loop-hole in the thick ojd wall. A whisper went about a mong the oldest there, that she had seen and talked with angels; arid when they called to mind how she had looked, and spoken, and her early death, some thought it might be so, indeed. Thus, coming to the grave in little knots, and glancing down, and giving placq to others, and falling off in whispering gr.oups ■fifith t'ccmr.fuur, the-church was eleared-iri time of all buliJhe.spa'iozijand.-tlieiniqurning, friends. VTl\ey: and the stoop fixed down. ' “Then, when, the' dusk of evening had come on, -and,. not abound, disturbed the sacced stillness of the place—when the briglit moon' poured in her light on thctun'ib and monument, on pillar, wall, and arch, and most of all (it seemed to them) upon' her quiet grave—in that calm time, when all outward.things and inward thought lecin with assurance'j)f immortality, and worldly hopes and fears-are humbled in the dust be fore them—then, with tranquil and submis sive hearts they turned away, and left the child with. God. Oh! it is hard to take to the heart the lessons that such deaths will teach; but let no man reject it, for it is one that all must learn, and it is a-mighty, uni versal truth. When death strikes down the .innocent and young; for every fragile form from which he lets the, panting spirit free, a hundred virtues rise, in shapes of mercy, charity and lovci to walk the world, and bless it. Of every tear that sorrowing mor tals shed on such green graves, some good is born, some gentler nature comes. . In the destroyer’s steps there spring up bright crea tions that defy liis power, and his dark path becomes a way of light to heaven.” MR. EWINO’S REPORT, The report of Mr. Ewing has of course received the unqualified approbation of the. party papers, it is amusing to see the ad miration they express for the recommenda tion of the new Secretary, in regard- to the tariff. The reader has only to glance back at their columns for a few short weeks, and he will find a profusion of abuse levelled at the late Secretary Woodbury, for the re commendation of similar measures. In Mr. Woodbury’s report on the revision of the tariff, dated -fun. 18th, the probable deficit in the revenue is estimated-at-®5,000,000, and it is conclusively shown, that with com mon prudence,, that will be the extent, taking into view the probable falling off in the cus toms growing out Of the operation of the compromise act, in 1833; To remedy this deficiency/Mr, Woodbury proposed two ex pedients—one was to levy a duty of 15 per cent, upon all double articles now'free.— This would yield the required amount, but it would embrace many articles that might be advantageously left free. The other.was to-select. those articles most regarded ns luxuries, and levy upon them a duty of 20 per cent, which would obtain the same ob ject, • - ■ Mr. Ewing in his report makes the actual deficit®6,oo9,94l. This is the whole de ficiency, after using the' Tieasufy notes al lowed bylaw. To this real deficiency, which is nearly the same as Mr. Woodbury’s esti mate, he adds two artificial items, viz: the whole amount of Treasury notes outstand ing as payable in; the. present year, and $4,- _OOQ,Q(JO_\vhichJieJvantsJokeep-OnJiand.— These are both fictitious demands. . The Treasury notes are' re-issuable after being received for customs,.should they, all be re tained, which is very doubtful, as many of the banks hold them as, a desirable invest ment, and the sum to be kept on hand is an impudent attempt to .reward the pet banks. The real deficiency is then the same as Mr. Woodbury’s.:. To meet this deficiency. Mr. Ewing instead of adopting the cautious poli cy of Mr, Woodbury;, who,' in changing the tariff, wits mindful of the,interests of the mercantile community, and. wished to.avoid, as: much impossible that/curse of.coinmerce —fluctuating duties:—pe.cpraniepds.'hringing up the tariff at once.to:the,.full,limits of tjife compromise. act—utterly. regard less of; all the interests -of .Commerce, of the orders which have , been .sent; out for goods, of the half completed,ivoyages .of die merchants, anil of.every other .consideration, except that, of squeezing as much money as possible out of the tariff, at the shortest, notice, to relieve the wants of the speculators. : The (Whole policy of thcVnew Administra-' ijon,is to make the untarnished credit of file federal Government the lever with which to •hoist .illl .the bwken States, hanks and spec, ulators out of .the slough into which .they, haye fallen by their own.mismanagemcpt.Tr-.

Some time previously developcmeut of the worst features of this disorder, there are observed weakness, languor and emaciation. There is no appetite for either breakfast or dinner; there is a peculiar slowness of the pulse, coldness of the hands and feet; a cold mois ture over the whole surface of the body; cramps in the muscles of the extremities; giddiness, nausea, vomiting. To these signs succeed a nervous tremor of the head and likewise of the tongue; the spirits become dejected, a melancholy feeling pervades the mind, the sleepjs short and interrupted; this may constitute the first stage. , Alter this a second comes on, attended with the highest degree of nervous irritation; mcntalaliena tion is its marked feature. There is a great restlessness, a constant excitement, objects of the most frightful nature are present to the imagination, the.eye acquires'a' most striking wildness, the individual canboljio down, ho fears suffocation) he talks incohe rently, he fancies he sees faces of extreme hideousness before him, beings about to en ter into a conspiracy against him, One medical-writer who has very ably discussed the subject, witnessed a very distressing in cident of a patient who, for .a considerable devil at the ceiling above his bed, and as the disease, whi'ch,tefinflated. fatally, increased, lie fancied the- evil' spirit ;aptMoacbed-YiVnv with a kiiife' to-cut his throat, and he actu glly-.expi/ied/maklng violent, efforts to avoid' the fatal instrument.—iV.O. Bulletin, Dreadful Scene. —The Baltimore Clipper* gives the following as an extract of a Iptter ■ dated Tallahassee, June 2th: “About four weeks since, as I was pass ing from Santa-.Petre,.a—village-sixty.miles from Tallahassee, where I reside, I saw nu old acquaintance of mine from Alabama, by the name of Livingston, most-horribly mu tilated by the Indians. His. eyes were plucked out, his ears, nose, and both hand? cutoff. ' He was really the most awful look ing object I ever beheld. Those who. live in your country may talk of the war ending, but if they were here their opinions would change. There are ,no signs of such a thing —it may last, from present appearances, for twenty Jears. The bilious and congestive fevers have raged to a considerable extent in this place. Many persons have died.— Our streets, as you may be aware; have been the theatres of some deep, dark and bloody tragedies; murals are indeed out of tune.— One thing, however, we need not starve, as we have plenty of fish, game of every de scription, and vegetables in abundance.— Those everlasting fevers, I fear, will long continue to cast a mildew over human hap piness in this regiou.” COMMON SCHOOLS. Though common, those humble seminaries are mighty agents; they are the lover which raised “New England to her high position. Much as wo are indebted to Colleges, Academies, and' other similar institutions, we owe more, —Inestimably mbre, —to Common Schools, Opening the doors to all, sowing the seeds of learning, broadcast, over the land,' their contributions to the intelligence, and consequently to the prosperity and enjoyment, though bestowed in small-portions, to each, yet in the aggregate swell to a vast amount. From the primary assemblies ooze out the rills, which commingling,'from the .streams that are ever washing out ouf moral and political stains.—. Stop the flowing of those waters, and our fair land would fast blacken with.ignorance, vice and crime. Liberty would lose their nourishment, philah thropy her most invigorate draughts, Christiani ty her invaluable supplies. Christians, philanthropists, patriots, cherish these nurseries of the mind and heart of tho next generation. Place them so high that the children of the rich shall be sent here to mingle with those of the poor; here let all classes early take lessons in republican equality; let the chUdremof. the wealthy here learn in early life, that they are'be ing trained up for scenes in which the most intel lectual, the- most, deserving are to be at the head of the class; here lot the poor boy loam,' that when he outstrips the rich man’s sou in the race of learn-, ing or hioral excellence, the prize of distinction of approbation will be bestowed upon himself. • Farmers, these schools' are, invaluable to; your children and for your country. Few higher du lies tests upon you, than that of lending wist’, generous, and constant aid to lho school in your district, notice and encourage the teacher; by pre-. cept and example influence all parents to' send 'their children to iho school: supply yotfr children well with books; let them be in school in, season, and. constant in attendance;'help'cheerfully-tq make the house comfortable. These points-aro. all of, them important; each is worthy of serious thoughts; and when well ''considered in all their bearings and influences, you cannot’ fail to sco that faith in our, country’s future .eminence onfl higli character of the Common Sc/tools. . , Effect!) or The Lenox Eaglet relates the most diabolical u’auU of fa-’ maTe joaloUsy that two 'recoiled'to have read of;— It'appears that one day .lnsti week a young lady, whose-name is not given, received an ihvitatiOq purporting to como froth a yoVng,'rnan;tp,Wlioin. she was engaged to ho niarricd, to vieit afiumly oMiex.acqualntanee inGrepn River,and, went tbor
