The infamous hill passed by the loco toeo majority at Harrisburg—so infamous that we cannot see how any man making pretensions to honesty could vote for it— has received its quietus at the hands of Governor Johnston. We regret that we did not receive a copy of the message in time lor to-day's paper, (it having only come to hand last evening,) but a svnopsis of its contents in another column will sat isfy any man, whether whig or locofoeo. that a more villainous and unprincipled ef fort to disfranchise a large portion of the j voters of Pennsylvania was never made. We trust Governor Johnston will freely j use the SLEDGE HAMMER to demolish all ; fabrics of this kind erected by the old j party hacks in the Legislature, until a fair i bill is passed. We care not what majority • locofocoism may obtain under a bill in 1 which some regard is paid to the ratio of representation, but until they do pav some . regard to that, as they have sworn to do. let there be no hesitation in the Executive :o use the power vested in him. By-a letter receiv ed from JAMES K. KEI.LV, Esq., we are pleased to learn that "VY ILLIAM SCOTT, ol the Juniata Conipanv, who was reported dead bv previous ac counts, is alive and well. 1 HE WEATHER. —We have had rain, hail and snow this week, and on several mornings ice was formed an eighth of an inch thick. The Almanacs call this weather spring, but there has been thus far so deci ded a feeling of winter about it, that some persons think the almanac makers have made a mistake of a month or two in their calculations. To-day is pleasant enough, but will it continue so ? is asked on all sides. We don't know, but nous verrons. rr The Democrat suggests that provi sion be made for publishing the amendment to the Constitution in papers of both par ties. This would be no more than right, and we would like to see ample provision made to carry out the measure. The Con stitution limits the Secretary of State to one paper in each county, but of course the legislature could appropriate funds to liave it published in two or three. What SIOO,OOO nay Do. The Montpelier (Vt.) Journal, in allud ing to the proposed Cotton Factory in Al bany, savs: ' J " A capital of SIOO,OOO is to give direct labor to 200 people. On the average, each one of those persons will support at least one more—as wife or child ; and so this moderate amount of capital is to add 400 to the population of Albany. Nor is this all : to hare a population of 400, buildings must he had—to build and furnish these houses and clothe the inmates, mechanics must be had ; to feed them, doctor them, educate them, and defend them, a new demand is made for farmers, traders, doctors, teachers, lawyers and so forth artd so on ; all adding still more to the population and the business of the place where such a factory is located." It is this cumulative influence of do mestic manufactures, says a cotcmporary . which gives thern their national importance. There are hundreds of thriving cities ami villages in this country which owe their existence to manufactures. Is it not bet ter for the country that our people should contribute to the support of these localities, and the hundreds of thousands who inhabit them, than tiiat they should support a like number of towns and operatives in foreign countries ? An honest answer to this question is all that is required to secure an admission of the wisdom and utility of the Whig doctrine of protection. Mr. Carl vie, in his latest publication, con demsthat "general morbid sympathy," of hearty hatred for scoundrels, which is threat ening to drown human society as in deluges, it may truly be questioned if the interference of what is ealied " humanitarianism" with the course of justice, wa ever productive of much good f.otofoto Office Holder*. To read the locofoeo papers, every one would suppose that none of that kith or kin held olfice under Cien. Taylor. Tru man Smith of Connecticut has made some inquiry into the matter, and in a recent speech in the United States Senate showed j that the number of clerks in the several Departments on the 4th March, 1849. were ; thus distributed : LOCOFOCOS. WHIGS. In the State Department, 22 3 " Navy Department, 34 15 " War Department, 2] 09 " Interior Department, 93 34 " Treasury Department, 259 76 44 P. O. Department, 47 2 476 156 156 I.oeofoco preponderance, 320 On the Ist of January, 1850, ten months afterwards, the following is the table : LOCOFOCOS. WHIGS. In the State Department, 11 15 44 Navy Department, 25 23 " War Department, 19 30 44 Interior Department, 58 80 44 Treasury Department, 202 132 41 P. O. Department, 35 14 350 294 294 Locofoco preponderance, 56 Or two hundred and sixty-four removals in the Departments at Washington since the fourth of March, 1849, when Gen. Taylor took the Presidential chair. In reply to a question by Mr. Dodge, of lowa, Mr. Smith said that he had obtained his infor mation from persons intimately acquainted in the Departments ; and 110 doubt the statement approximates the truth. This statement has also been made in the House, and thus far not a member of Congress has attempted to refute it. The Democrat is congratulating it self on the progress " democracy" is ma king. and cites Connecticut, Ohio, and Kentucky as instances in which the people reposed confidence in locofocoism as exhib ited in the recent elections. In Connecti cut and Ohio the locofocos have for some years intrigued with the fag-ends of all factions from Mormonism down to ultra abolitionism, while in Kentucky it is closely allied to slavery. At Washington, too, Borland and Foote and Benton and Foote, <kc., have been exhibiting specimens of union and harmony which show much good feeling and a remarkable similarity of dis position to plant fists between each other's sky-lights. If our neighbor calls these coalitions and brawls the triumphs of de mocracy, he will some day wake up and find the party on a 44 bust."

The income on that portion of the work which is open for use, during the last ten days, exceeds $10,000; being over SI,OOO per day; with every prospect of an immense in crease, when the connection with the inclined plane at IfoJlidaysburg is completed.

Marks made a statement in Court of the whole transaction, acknowledging that he had set fire to the build ing, but implicated the principal witness against j them as the instigator of the act. | Commonwealth vs. Michael T.

A. P. JACOB, W. H. IRWIK, and E. L. BEXEDICT for the Common wealth, and A. PARKER and S. S. WOODS for the j defence. On a second indictment Robison was found not guilty—Hopper to pay costs. Across action, brought by Robison against Hopper, was ignored by the Grand Jury, as was also another ' bill by Hopper against Robison. MILLER, tried for an assault on J. DAVIS, plead guilty, and was fined $3 and costs. Commonwealth vs. James Cupples, Jr. The prisoner, a boy but 13 years old, was in dicted for feloniously breaking into the store of JOHN 11001 ES, and taking therefrom sundry pen kives and other articles. The case was rather j clearly made out, it having been shown that considerable tact and ingenuity had been exhib ited in effecting an entrance, the shutters having been bored in the most approved style ; but in consideration of his youth and probably a doubt as to the felonious intentions of the boy, the Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. A P. JACOB for Commonwealth— J. ALEXANDER and J. W. PARKER for defence. Commonwealth vs. Martin Ilanley. Hanley was indicted for stealing a lot of dry goods from the store at Freedom Forge. Drs.

His case will be disposed of at an adjourned Court to be held shortly. Commonwealth vs. John Wagner.

THE SOUTHERN CONVENTION.—The election for delegates to the Nashville convention, was held in Georgia on the 2d inst. It excited so little attention in Savannah, that the papers of the succeeding day failed to notice it altogether. The vote polled was 439, where it usually ran ges about 1,600. In Augusta, but 116 votes were polled ; in Burke county, 47 ; in Columbia no election was held. Surely this whole move ment is a most ridiculous farce. Tm CHOLERA.—The cholera is prevailing to a considerable extent in New Orleans, and the board of health have issued a proclamation urg ing upon the citizens caution in dress and diet, although the disease has not yet assumed an ep idemic character. The whole number of inter ments in the, various cemeteries for the week ending the 23d ult., was 224, of which 149 were from cholera. The number of deaths from i cholera on the 26th was ten. GREAT SUPPLY OF CATTLE.—A letter from Maysville, Ky., states that the number of cattle \ shipped eastward from thatplace, by w ay of the Ohio river arid Pittsburgh, has gradually in- j creased from 1,000, in 1847, to f>,ooo, in 1849, and that the number shipped thence this year will probably be 20,000. The Alexandria Gazette says that market is supplied with some fine new potatoes from the Bermuda islands. For the Gazette. MR. EDITOR —Please call the attention of those gentlemen who lately hold a meeting at the Town Hall and resolved to resist the dese cration of the Sabbath in our woods and by places, to the fact that the Court of Quarter Sessions, including sundry Judges, county offi cers, lawyers, jurors, Ac., were in session on Sunday morning last between two and three o'clock, transacting common week-day business. Now here's a fair chance in our midst for show ing a proper zeal for the fourth commandment, without leaving the limits of our borough, and a respectable number of whom suitable exam ples may be made. Come, gentlemen, no back ing out now. A SUNDAY MAN. hut itf>t an t 'ltraht. j Legislature. In the Senate on the 9th, nearly the whole of the morning session was consumed in the consid eration of an " Omnibus" bill from the House. It is very long, containing fifty-eight sections, treating on a variety of subjects. Its passage will create most important changes in a number of laws, of which the people will know nothing until they are passed. In the House, a message was received from Governor Johnston, returning with his objec tions, the bill apportioning the State into Sena torial and Representative Districts. His first objection is made by comparing the apportionment of Fayette with that of Dauphin county, the latter having but one representative, with a larger number of taxables than Fayette, which has two. The second objection is that Allegheny, with 28,547 taxables has but five members, while Westmoreland, with only 11,- 618, has three. The third is, that Schuylkill, with 12,867 taxables, has but two representa tives, while Berks, with 16,262, has four. The fourth objection is, that Berks, with some sixteen thousand taxables, has the same repre sentation as Westmoreland, Schuylkill, Butler, and Luzerne, with some 24,000 taxables. The fifth objection is made by comparing Crawford with Erie. The sixth objection is, that by the representation allowed to Allegheny, Butler, Lawrence, Dauphin, Eric and Schuylkill, which are altogether allowed 11 members, 26,406 tax able inhabitants are left unrepresented, accord ing to the ratio fixed in the bill. The seventh is that the counties of Adams, Allegheny, Butler, Lawrence, Beaver, Dauphin, Delaware, Erie, Indiana, Lebanon, Philadelphia City, Somerset, Union and Lancaster, with 140,- 222 taxables, are allowed 25 members, whilst the counties of Columbia, Sullivan, Crawford, Fayette, Monroe, Wayne, Pike, Mercer, Venan go, Warren, Mitllin, Montgomery, Susquehanna, Wyoming, Westmoreland, York, Tioga, Elk, McKean, and Clearfield, with only 105,000 tax ables, are given the same number. He refers to the representative district of Clearfield, Elk and McKean, as having been erected since the adoption of the Constitution, and given a separate representation, whilst they have a less numbe| of taxables than the ratio fixed in the bill; consequently it is unconstitu tional. He denounces the formation of double districts as calculated to prevent an equal rep resentation and as an anti-republican feature which ought to be avoided. He refers to the district composed of the counties of Amrstrong, Jefferson, and Clarion, where Clarion has 5067 taxables, which entitles her to one member, with a small excess. Arm strong and Jefferson have 8708 taxables, being a much larger number than is required for two members in Fayette, Westmoreland, Berks, and Crawford. He thinks this might have been avoided, as well as making a district of Cnm bcrland, Perry, and Juniata counties, and one of Mercer, Venango, and Warren. The message goes on to point out the different inequalities in the bill generally, and closes with an expression of regret that the passage of the bill should have been delayed until so nearly tbe close of the session. In the Senate,on the 10th,an apportionment bill was reported, which makes the following alterations from the one vetoed by the Governor: Lancaster is made the 7th district, with two Senators ; Northumberland, Columbia and Un ion are made the 13th district, with one Sena tor; Lycoming, Centre, Clinton and Sullivan the 14th district, with one Semtor; Luzerne and Wyoming the 10th district, with one Sen ator; Bradford and Susquehanna the lfi'h dis trict, with one Senator; Tioga, Hotter, M'Kean, Elk ana Warren the 17th district, with one Senator; Clarion, Venango. Mercer, Crawford and Erie the lS:h district, with two Senators; Armstrong, Indiana, Jefferson and Clearfield the 24tb district, with one Senator; MifHin, Huntingdon, Biair and Cambria the 25th dis trict, with one Senator. In the House of Representatives : Allegheny is given six members, Armstrong one member, Clearfield and Jefferson one member, Clarion and Venango two members, Dauphin and Leb anon three members, Fayette and Westmore land four members, Lancaster four members, Mercer and Crawford three members, Warreu, M'Kean and Elk one member. The House refused to consider the bill erect ing the new county " Montour." The resolution calling on the Canal Com missioners to advance their opinion as to the merits ot the Lill incorporating the Lebanon Valley Railroad Company was defeated by a majority of two votes. The bill providing lor the regulation and con tinuance of a system of education by common schools came up in order, and passed second reading. The Forest divorce bill also passed, so amended as to give any Court of Common Pleas in the Commonwealth cognizance of the case—yeas 40, nays 28. WASHINGTON, April 10. Mr. Campbell, the Clerk of the House of Representatives, is moat dangerously ill. He is not expected to recover. MYSTERIOUS OCCURRENCE.—WE under stand that .Mr. Thomas Johnston, of Martic township, has been missing from his home since the Ist inst., under circumstances which are calculated to induce the belief that he has been foully dealt with. He left his residence on that day for the pur pose of collecting money and making set tlements with some of his neighbors. The last person with whom he settled recollects seeing a large sum of money in his pos session. lie was afterwards seen by a neighbor within a mile of his own dwel ling, in which direction he was then riding through a lane or path, which was secured at both ends by bars and gates. His horse was found in this enclosure on the follow ing morning. The whole neighborhood has been carefully searched since, but no traces have been discovered of the missing man. It is feared that he has been waylaid and murdered by soinc one having a knowledge that lie had a large sum ol money in his possession, and his body concealed in some way from discovery. He was a man of industrious and temper ate habits, and his circumstances were such as to leave no motive for a voluntary ab sence from his family and home.— /MU CUS/er lit ion.
