In :.mcs of ,1, wia'er in the river, lite latest claw of ~pa tnb oats :,r< -' unable to pass tinder the bridge, seri'tis ii j try to the eoiinnerce of the V(> „., T n part ot the State, must result from jhis oiiiMoice.

Resuits of a chnrac •cr =. important should warn the Legislature that speedy and energetic action is required, ami that measures dictated by justice and po!- ny, should be resorted to with a view to the removal of the evil. The expression of our opinions on questions ,D re directly belonging to the National Govern ment, is a right arising from the nature of our ,r,?iiiutions, and where they are intimately con nected with the interests of the people, becomes a duty not to be disregarded. The representa tives in Congress of tikis State and the citizens, ..ware of the tendency of measures on the pros jvritv of their constituents, and knowing the responsibility of their exalted position, must regard with becoming favor, a deliberate de claration of public sentiment from the State they represent. Entertaining these views, and persuaded that questions of v ital importance to the well-being of our beloved Commonwealth v. ill claim the attention of Congress, 1 have deemed it right, on his occasion, briefly to refer to a few of those which may be considered of greatest consequence to the welfare of the peo- pie. The adjustment of the revenue laws for the ■ protection of the peculiar interests of Pennsyl vania, must be regarded as a measure deeply alecting all classes of society. In relation to ti.e policy of the National Government on this subject, the manufacturer, the artizan, the agri culturalist. and the laborer, feel alike, that their business and pursuits, are elevated or depressed as protection is afforded or withheld. In the lii-torv of the-past, they are furnished with les sons tor the future. The events of the past season have afforded conclusive evidence, in the closed doors and deserted buildings of the man- < ufactories; in the distresses of the laborer, and t general depression of profitable industry, of tne imperative necessity for a system of laws which will sustain, against foreign competition, the employments of our citizens. When profi table investments and useful capital arc stricken down: when surplus produce finds diminished prices; and when labor is depressed, and indus trious operatives are thrown out of employ;— heither party dogmas, nor local interests, nor sectional jealousies, should prevent a united and 1 energetic effort in our National Representatives to restore the general prosperity. On the application for the admission of new States into the Union, the subject of the exten sion of slavery, will claim the attention of Con gress. Our Southern brethren, united by long ,sociatioß and habit with this institution, and j depending upon it in a large degree for their do me-tic comfort and commercial advantages, will j not willingly allow of its exclusion from terri- j t ri"s belonging to the General Government. No disturbance is Contemplated of their rela- ! t;ons therewith, in States where it now exists. Holding their slaves by compromise and conces sion, it would involve on our part, a breach of J futh, and an interference with the sovereignty of sister republics to intermeddle with their so cial policy, or to controvert the legality of their domestic relations. Whatever injury may be indicted on Northern interests from the jealous ies incident to the existence of the institution. s,nd the effort to prostrate free labor, a sacred regard for our pledged faith admonishes us to suffer, rather than attempt reformation where err authority will not be acknowledged. The extension of the evil beyond its present limits, discloses a very different feature. Ihe consent of the free States of the Union to its further progress, would evince an ignorance of their . true interests, of the rights ot justice and hu manity, and an indifference to the character and c gnity of their common country. \Nhcrethe-e are implicated, it is an abandonment of duty to compromise. So fully were the views of the f.xenjtive expressed on the subject ui the Ta riff, and the extension of slavery, in a former message, that a reference to them here, as em- : t racing his present sentiments thereon, would ( appear to be sufficient. The dissemination among the people of mfor- , mation affecting their peace and prosperity, j should be regarded as a measure of sound wis dom, and should be shackled by no unnecessary exactions. To give to the citizens cf one sec tion of a common country, a correct knowledge of the wants, the opinions, and general condition j of the peopie of other portions thereof, should be the aim of all w ue legislation on the subject. Nothing would tend more strongly to dissipate sectional alousics and dislikes, and to unite in sentiments of neighborly kindness, every part of this great confederacy. Intercourse, whether produced bv the agency of Railroads, or of Telegraph ; by personal or written communica tions is an agent to heal dissentions, and to foster social charities, more potent than nation al laws. To tax beyond the neces-ities of gov ernment, the intercourse of our citizens, creates a harrier to the dissemination ufknow ledge ; and assists in estranging the affections of the differ •Tit portions of the Republic. In this view ol the subject the Halts of Hostage charged by the National Government, becomes a question of deep importance, and sound wisdom would dic tate a reduction of present charges. It cannot fail to be perceived that the obser vations in relation to postage, as connected with rational intercourse, applies with equal force to improvements in the mode of travel between re mote sections of the country. Whatever facil- ; hates free communication among the citizens, strengthens the unity of government Whether from the character of the country and toe nature ' f its surface, it is practicable to construct a great national thoroughfare from the Mississippi j to the Pacific Ocean, has not been fully ascer tained ; hut it must be evident, that such an im provement would be of an inestimable value, to ( every portion nf the 1 nion. In addition to the opportunities it would afford of an interchange o: hospitalities between the people of remote ••ef.'tionf, it would not fail to be loaded with a trade a- profitable to the country, as it would be important to different localities. 1 o Penn sylvania, its benefits ran scarcely be imagined. The improvements already made arid those in progress iti thi- >u,tc. , onriecting with the Pub lic Works of other Ktate*. w ill soon form one unbroken chain of eorofnunieation from the At lantic to the Mississippi. Were this gigantic . work completed, no man • an estimate the solid j and social advantages which must ensue to every ! section of country united therewith; and in no place would its salutary result - be more effectu al, than within our own borders. 'The subject ii eminently worthy the serious attention of the I.eerislnture. .. . , In a faithful adherence to the National ( .in stitution, as the same has been expounded by the cage- and patriots of other day s, the people of I'e.nnsylvania rely for the perpetuation of their political, social and religious lib. rty Although in i* provisions may be found the a< knowledge itii r.lof principles they do not approve, it is es ' crned bv them us the fundamental law of the < <.ui try, and they reverence it as the consum mation of wisdom and patriotism, devil.. > o ic on if welfare. When sectional interests and .jealousies contend for supremacy, and sectional ughts an to he determined ; when questions ue- Ueen StaU a are controverted, and disregard o! national laws is manifested; iri peace and war, m provperitv and adversity, in foreign or do - tie diffi iiltics ' the citizens of Pennsylvania t.in with ahidin ' confidence ti the National Conslitution. Neither the thirst f or power;! nor the phrenzy of party ; nor the prostration ot their peculiar interests ; can shake their alle giance to the National Government, or raise with litem the traitor cry of disunion. J he sentiments expressed, and the language used on the subject by the father of his country, ate so appropriate to the period in which we live, that 1 have deemed it proper to call vour attention to the following brief extract from his r art-well Address : 1 he unity of government which constitutes you one people, is also dear to you. It is justly so; for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence ; the support of tranquility at home ; your peace abroad ; of your safety ; of ! your prosperity ; of the very liberty which you ! so highly prize, But as it is easy to foresee, i that, from different cau e cs and from different j quarters, much pains will be taken, many arti fices employed, to weaken in your minds the I conviction of this truth ; as this is the point of ■ your political fortress, against which the batte ries of internal and external enemies will he most constantly arid actively (though often cov ertly and insiduously) directed ;—it is of infinite I moment that you should properly estimate the ! immense value of your national union to your col- i lective and individual happiness; thai you should cherish a cordial, habitual,and immovable attach ment to it, accustoming yourselves to think and speak of it as the palladium of your political safety and prosperity ; watching for its preser vation with jealous anxiety, discountenancing whatever may suggest even a suspicion that it can, in any event, be abandoned: and indignant ly frowning upon the first dawning of every at tempt to alienate any portion of our country trom the rest, or to enfeeb'e the sacred ties which now link together the various parts." Gentlemen, In I lie performance of a constitu tional obligation, the measures deemed necessary for your consideration, have been stated as con cisely as their importance and nature would permit. To the representatives of the people attaches the duty of enacting such Jaws as the welfare of our constituents may require, and to their care and delibeiate action are cheerfully confided the safety, honor, and prosperity of the Common wealth. \VM.

VS The Legislature of Pennsylvania was organized en Tuesday by the election of V. Best as Speaker of the Senate by the aid of the whigs, defeating Braw lev, the locofoco caucus nominee—an event which has caused considerable fluttering in that party. . In the House, John S. \|u- Calmont was elected Speaker. The Governor's Message was delivered on Wednesday. PROtELimCiS OF COYGRFSS. in the Senate various resolutions have been offered, calling for information on dil ferent matters. A bill granting the frank ing privilege to Mrs. Polk has passed both houses. In the House, the standing committees were announced on the 51st. Notwith standing the fuss made by the Southern members in relation to slavery, we find that Mr. Cobb lias given the abolitionists a hearing on some ol the most important ; committees —Allen, of Massachusetts being on the Committee on the Disiriet ol ( o luiubia ; Preston King, ol New N ork, on the Judieiarv ; and Giddmgs, ol Ohio, on Territories. MR. CALVIN, the member from this district, is on the Committee on Public Expenditures. A large number of petitions asking a reduction ol postage, were presented and referred.

Kinkhead arrived in this city yesterday, from a journey across the Plains, lie left the city of the Salt Lake, ' in company with thirty-five others, on the 19th of October. The party were not mo lested by the Indians on the roue, nor did they meet with any accident. The snow on the Plains w as very deep, or the party would have reached here several days i sooner. After considerable difficulty, and a long talk, the military commandant at Fort Lar- ! amic lias succeeded in concluding a treaty with tlic Pawnee Indians, which it was thought would be observed on the part off the Indians. A new colony of .Mormons has been i formed, and they have made a settlement two hundred and fifty miles south of" Salt Lake City. I vventy-five Mormon preach- > ers crossed the Plains vvith Mr. Kinkhead. ; It is their intention to preach Morinonisni i over the whole world, and make new con verts to Mormunism. For the Gazette. Mr. Editor: —lf I tememheraright,an act was passed bv the last Legislature giv ing the Borough authorities power to ap point a ll'ooil ('order. Can any one tell whether the law has been acted on, and il so, where the officer can he found. For one, I would sooner pay a fair price for corded wood, than to buy in the present random system ; and I have no doubt a majority of the farmers would prefer to sell by the cord, as in that ease they would always he paid for what thev bring, and neither more nor less. A CONSUMER. • E( o\oll Y.--The amount of money deposited in the Savings bank of Great Britain is over; 421,000,000 sterling, or more than one hundred millions of dollars ' This is an enormous amount of money, and is the savings of many who have lab jred hard, and by pursuing a habit of -tru t economy they have succeeded in maintaining themselves ha: ' nely, and laid up a compe tency for old nge. The question then arises, w hat is true economy: Jn the exercise of econ omy it is essentia! to have good judgment—a cor rect notion of matters and things. Ev< ry indi vidual has in the courscof a hf< time to purchase a large amount of goods, even if for ids or her own support, mere!). It will, in the course of ' years, amount to a considerable sum. Then tin way to practice economy in tins respect is to j buy for < ASH, as it is very dangerous to go in J debt, particularly with the storekeepers. Buv for ( vs H, and buy always GOOD <.<;ot>s, a;id at the lowest prices ; and to enable the public to get 1 goods of every grade and quality, at the lowest possible prices that they can be sold over tin cost of manufacturing, T.'. L. JONES IS conduct ing a large establishment on the. < AOI SYSTEM, ; and his business has now grown to such an enor mous extent that he buys nearly all hi- gr o •!- directly of the importers and manufacturers for ' cash, and -ells them at the smallest considerable ' profits, and in this way he is enabled to sell his ; goods at least TWENTY PER CENT, lower than all > other merchants. Let any one make a calcula tion of the amount of goods they would proba bly buy in one year, and they will find Hut 20 percent, or one-fifth of the amount would be a considerable item. I.et this run on for some years, and they will have a sum saved in amount of no little consequence. It is now admitted by all other merchants, as well as by the public generally, that C. L. JONES i has the largest and best selected stock of goods ever shown before in Lewistown, and that he ! can undoubtedly buy goods cheaper than any j other merchant—his business being so large anil ' purchasing in such immense quantities. Country persons visiting Lewistown to pur- ! good- for CASH will -oon be convinced of the foregoing facts, by calling at the Celebrated .Yrir Cheap Cash Store of C. L. JONES, and in pro portion to the population of this country with Great Britain, the amount cf savings might he j quite equal, and probably greatly exceed the i estimate made. THE MARKETS.
