This Indian summer is the dividing line bo- 1 tween the summer and winter portions of the year, and after its departure, rain*, and settled cold woalh er follow and continue. Wo may look for rain, and a rise in tbe riser, within ton days. Wo do not pretend lobe weather-wise, but we bo'ievo one fact is fully ascertained, from which some safe condo ■lons may be drawn. It is known that in this lati tude, the amount of rain or water that falls during a twelve month varies from twcnty-lwo lo twenty sis inches, hardly ever falling below the lower number, or exceeding the twenty six inches. Taking this as a fact and basis of calculation, wo may expect heavy falls of rain within the next three months, ns during the last nine months the proportion of rain haa been ■mailer than usual.

At the recent oeeeion of tho United Stales Cir cuit Court, at Columbus, Ohio, Judge McLean made a decision sustaining the constitutionality of the famous “Crowbar law” in Ohio, a law by which, if the banks refuse to pay their taxes, the collectors are anthorized to open the bank vaults with a crowbar and help themselves lolbepooplo s dOOB, GdiiT Roddebt.— Tho Bank of the Slate of New York was robbed on iho 3lsl nlle/of bills the amount o t $37,000.

On our first page will bo found tho correspondence between Mr. Guthrie, the Secretary of the Treasury, and Mr. Bronson, lato collector for the port of New York. \Vo have had so many Inquiries in regard to the letters that passed between these gollemcn, that wo thought it best lo publish them at length.— Wo feel no disposition to enter into a detailed ar- gument on the subject 6f this correspondence, for every reader, now that he can peruse it himself, can form hia own judgment lo his own satisfaction. — Wo may bo permitted to remark, however, that bo. tween the administration and its important subordi- nate officers there should and must be harmony ol feeling and action. It appears from the letters that passed between Secretary Guturir and Collector Bronson, that the latter gentleman, in dispensing hie immense patron age, had favored one section of the *party (the “hards") and almost entirely neglected tho other section, known as tho “softs." had yielded a cordial support to Gen. Pixbck when he was a candidate, and have been equally zealous in sustaining his administration since ho assumed tho Executive duties. Both had adopted the ‘‘Bal timore platform," and both bad agreed lo consider by-goncs by-goncs, and in future eschew everything like disorganization in the Democratic party. Thus it appeared, a union and good feeling waa hereafter to exist in the parly of New York, and that for the ] future we ahould have no “free soil" movements, no | more disorganization. Secretary Guthrie (and the President too, no doobtjlclt anxious lo encourage tho good feeling which they had a right lo suppose existed, and in dispensing the palronngo of the Gov ornmcnl they were willing lo recognize all as Dam crats who were then cordially with tho administra tion in its views of national policy. But it appears Mr. Bronson, (who is beyond doubt a most worthy man.) thought otherwise, and in appointing his Clerks and Deputies bo made selection, very gener ally, from his own section of tho party. Tho Ad ministration dosirod to recognize all as deserving who had accepted the Baltimore platform—Mr. Bbonson, on the other hand, repudiated this policy and insisted (bat the “hards" alone should bo recog nised. Here then was the issue,'abd one party or the other had to yield. The Secretary of the Treas ury finding that Mr. Bronson wouti not yield his own opinions, removed bim from office. This, we : believe, is about tho true state of the case, as wo understand it. The Whig journals, now that they have no “Whig principles” lo talk about, aro trying their best to make a little capital out or Ibis difficulty between the Secretary of the Treasury and Mr. Bronson.— They hod better save their breath lo cool their broth, Tor they can do nothing, say nothing, that will in any way injure the administration. We regret the mis* understanding that occurred between Mr. Gothhii and Mr. BaoNSOS.and think that had their corros -1 pondcnco been a private instead or a public one, they could and would have understood each other much better. But, as wo hive said, a national admmis tralion must be a unit in policy, and IT Mr. Bronson (good a man as ho is) persisted in differing with the administration, and thus creating discord, wo don't boo how ho could expect lo bo retained in power. — Mr. Bronson was honest in his views, no doubt ? so was Mr. Guthrie. It was an honest difference of opinion between honorable men. Mr, Bronson goes out of office with the good wishes of the admiois tralion, ond with the respect of ail. Another has i been oppoinled in his place whoso views harmonize with the administration, and in regard lo appoint ments ho holds similar views with Mr. Gutubii.— This has been the JinaU of Iho difficulty, and we oao’l Bce that the country has suffered lo any great degree, as oar Federal friends would like to make it appear.- Tho only error in the whole matter, as wo said before, was in publithing the correspondence.— J D our humble judgement this should not have been done, not that there is anything objectionable in (ho correspondence, but because it was a mere dispute j between the administration ond one of its officers, I about a certain course of policy on tho part of the latter. However, its publication can do no particu lar injury lo any one, and may perhaps convince all that the President is determined, at all hazards, to sustain the policy indicated in his Inaugural address, and is equally determined that Ihovo men who hon estly agree with him in sentiment and action shall not bo proscribed because of former errors. Ho do sires peace rn the Democratic family, because he believes tho country requires it. Tho wrangling of! factions, but a few months since, came near effect ing a dissolution of the Union, ond the President is solicitious that harmony should prevail in future.— This should be, and doubtless is, the desire of every true patriot in our land. Papers. To the poor, the weekly newspaper is a precious boon. They cannot afford books, and indeed, would have but a 1 Hilo lime lo read them. But for the merest trifle, hardly to be miss ed, a whole family may draw almost daily from an Inexhaustible fund of reading. The father can discuss the contents of his newspaper at the break fast table, with his wife and children, and go forth to his labor supplied with material for thought which cannot fail to make him wiser and better, and elevate him in the scale of humanity. It is an undeniable fact that while (he few read books, the many depend entirely on the newspaper for Intellectual food. Surely every lover of his coun try would rather see the great' body of his follow citizens Intellectual and virtuous, than degraded 1 to the level of the ignorant and abject masses of European population. Then we say remove every 1 restriction upon the circulation of newspapers.— > The postage tax is a restriction. Abolish it. Let • them be scattered broadcdbl over the land, It ie safe lo predict, that the rising generation of Ame rica will prove the most enlightened race of men that the world ever saw. SiNot'oea Piivbiolooic.il Fact. —The Sooth Side Democrat, (Petersburg, Va.,) romarke—"ln the recent epidemic which devastated Now Or leans, we have been informed that few, if hny, of the sufferers were among tho blacks; and a gentle man who lived for several years at Mobile, doting which lime the yellow fever twice attacked that city, tells os he never knew a negro to die of It. There is an aptitude, on adaplodnees of tho Afri can to high temperatures, that is ns immutable a fact as any other natural law." The Norristown Register speaks of Jacob Fry, Jr., as a candidate for the office of Speaker In the neat ’ House of Representatives. Mr. F. we believe, has 1 already served several terms in Congress, and is a ‘ gentleman of very fair abilities. The Carlisle Herald of last week, in speaking of the recent Democratic triumph in this Stale* makes nee of the following language: They (the Democrats) will now have a jolly time of it, on the people's money, even if it does increase our State debt a few millions. Well, if the peo ple do not feel interest enough in their own'wel fare to guard the Slate from such robbers, we sup pose they are content to have thefts committed; and if they are content, we can afford to be. We had been led-to suppose that the recent voice of the people of this State, so emphatically expressed, would have a tendency to silence, for a time, those editors who delight in slander and {defamation of character. Such hue been the case 1 to a certain, extent, bat yet there are a few men ’ whose venom will not permit them to abandon a course so well salted to their ability and taste.— 3 The above extract from the Herald is, in senti r ment, malignant and wicked, and exhibits a bit* These two sections lerness of feeling and a malevolence of purpose such as no respectable editor should make use of. When we look at the returns of the election for Stale officers and compare the majorities with for mer years, we cannot but pity (he journal that dares insinuate that (he people have rendered this verdict with no other object in view than to place men in office to “have a jolly lime of it on (ho people’s money.” This is a base attack upon the people themselves, and is another evidence that the Federalists consider the people foois, and des titute of sufficient knowledge to govern themselves. Messrs. Banks, Forsythe and Drawley,lhe three gentlemen elected (o high and responsible State offices by unprecedented majorities, are stigmatiz ed by our modest neighbor as robbers and thieves-! Some men might feel sore and become angry to see such sweeping charges made against those for whom they had voted; but for ourself we can, laugh to scorn this miserable, nonsensical, and 1 wicked attack. The men thus denounced as “rob | here,” who are ready to “have thefts committed," I have been endorsed by the people by many thou-j sands, and this expression, we take it, gives a signal denial to this infamous and silly charge. These three gentlemen are known and beloved for their honesty and probity of character. Two ot them are members of the Church—bolter members than some who denounce them. They can point 1 to their past lives for their characters, and appeal, to their neighbors for defence. And yet these j men are called “robbers” by the Heraid! This is, I going beyond decency—beyond the duty ol a po-1 lineal editor. Such sweeping denunciation is < 1 discreditable to any paper, and should be discoun tenanced and condemned by every intelligent man. I It is unnecessary, and is of semce to no party, to I no man. Political men, care not to what par-1 ly they belong, are as patriotic and honest as any | other class of citizens, and ills a great error to i stigmatize good and honest men as robbers and thieves, merely because they are the candidates of apolitical party. That day has gone |fl( when such conduct can be approved, and our c mcn to the principles that hove co-oper alcd, in the fuco of a violent opposition, to bring about Ibis general pjwsporily. A Complimentary Vote* Brother McClure, of llio Chambersburg Whig, who was tho Whig candidate for Auditor General at the late election, is highly gratified with the unanimous Whig vote that was cast for him in a portion of Monroe county. He expresses his lhanks in (he following graceful manner : “We feel under peculiar obligations to the gal lant Whigs of several districts in Monroe county for the unbroken front they presented, not only for the Whig candidate for Auditor General, but for the whole Slate ticket. It will be observed that in seven districts the voletfor the Whig candidates presents the most complete uniformity, without the slightest variation or ‘scratching. 1 We ap pend the vote Auditor Gen.

Stales, feeling it eminently due lo the merits, genius and philanthropy of Benjamin Franklin, who conferred so much honorand reflected so much lustre on the professions lo which they respective ly belong, that a suitable monument should be erected to his memory; and as from the fact that Philadelphia was the scene of so many of his la ors and triumphs, and is now the resting place of tie remains, there is a peculiar propriety in orlgi* »aiing such a movement in this city, therefore, Resold, By the meeting now assembled, that inmddials. measures should be adopted lo procure die pfcbessary funds for the purpose indicated, and that an Executive Committee of fifty-si* be ap- pointed by the Chairman, to lake general supervi sion of ihd.yyhole subject, end prepare an address to the prinieta and literary: men of the Union.* The meeting adjourned to meet again at the call uf iho Executive Committee. The Suits of the Government Against James Com.ier and msSußETiKs.— The suit pending ngninst Collier, and another just brought against his other sureties than George Law—both pending in N York —will not bo reached until the term of the United Stales Court there, next succeeding the present term One hundred thousand dollars of the payment o( the Treasury on account of ,tho balance duo from Collier, which wo brought to the notice of the public more than a month since, was on account nf George Law's liability as one of his sureties, Mr. Low, who was on his bonds for that amount, has thus relieved himself from all further responsibility on his account, having paid op the whole penally in which ho was bound. The balance still claimed by the Government is very largo. Post. Master General Campdill.— The Bedford Gazelle, a very able and orthodox Democratic jour nal, thus speaks of Judge Campoell, the present accomplished Post Master General: Judge Campdkel has been fairly and fully tried both as a Lawyer and Statesman, and in coclt case has given abundant and overwhelming evidence of capacity and integrity of Iho highest order. Ho Is mild, courteous, and pleasing in his address, whilst ho possesses all the firmness required to make an of. ficienl public officer. Wo do not believe the P. O. Department over had a more competent head, or one belter calculated to give strength and dignity lo the Administration.— Wo hope, for (ho honor of the country, that wo shall never again hear Judge Campbell charged with in troducing religion into hie appointments, for nothing could bo more unfounded, unjust, or ungenerous.

The measures and policy oflho administration,foreign and domed: Ho, will be broadly laid down, and the whole country; as well ee Congress, wilt bo pul in possession of (be views of the Executive. A Washington correspondent of the Mew York Journal of Commerce, gives the- following inklings of the probablo complexion of the forth coming Bute paper The frame work of tho message has been laid out, and the President is engaged with the Secretaries in reducing it to forin. Its developementa respecting our foreign relations will be deeply 'interesting... Through its statements we shall bo informed of tho exact progress of (he negotiation relative to the fish, ery question and tho north west trade. The best informed here believe that the Secretary of State is proceeding quietly but efficiently to an adjustment of the difforcnfcca Which have so long existed between England and tho U. Slates on that subject. a The questions pending With Mexico , are the right of transit across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, si in volved in the Sloo arid Garay contracts, and defined in the treaties negotiated by Judge Conklin and Gov.' Letcher; the demand for the right of way for the Pacific railroad, through Sonora and Chihunbtfa,iho reclamations of Mexico for Indian depredations, afWf tho readjustment of our mutual commercial relations.

In domestic affairs tho policy recommended in the Message will be, U is whispered among the per sonal and confidential friends of the President, In rigorous conformity with the principles oftho Dem ocratic party,as announced by its founders and earliest expositors. In finance the President will advise the adoption of a revenue system which shall keep the annual receipts nearly upon a level with i the estimated expenditures. As to the surplus on hand.lho system of purchasing up government stocks will bo pursued until it is consumed. 1 Preference to expenditure tho most rigid econ omy will be insisted upon. It is expected Ibsi the policy of improving river* and internal harbors will , be discouraged. The plan of connecting the coo r tract system of carrying the mails with the inercaso and support oflho Navy, will bo referred to In un ' favorable terms, and Us abandonment as soon as consistent with existing controcls ond resulting ‘ rights will bo recommended Tho proposition to 1 connect the Atlantic and Pacific coasts by a great • national railroad w ill bo discussed, but the President will stale his conviction that sound policy requires it to be left to the individual energies and the pri vate capital of the country.
