About one hall of the cases from Lancaster Co. were argued week before last; though on account of the absence of Col. Frazer, who was detained from court by indisposition, the cases in which he was concerned were continued until some subse quent day of the term. May 20. The case of Stormfels vs. the Manor turnpike decided: judgment reversed and judgment •rendered for defendant below. Opinion by Coulter J. Though the power of the Legislature, in virtue of the right of eminent domain, to establish a turnpike gate in the street of a city is not to be questioned, yet the grant of such a right is not to be inferred without an express enactment. The words relied upon here “*to erect gates in Manor st. or elsewhere, according to the provisions of the original act,” arc too indefinite ; besides the origi nal act does not speak of Manor street. And the word “elsewhere” is too indefinite to found a right upon. The Legislature meant by 'Manor street nothing more than Manor road. Champneys andSiaymaker for plaintiff in error; Stevens and Ford lor defendant in error. Stouffer vs. executor of Haines. Judgment af firmed. , Opinion by Burnside J. The principle de cided is analagous to the case of Commonwealth vs. Eisenbise, decided at the last term, but not yet reported. There, held that a promise by a bank rupt to pay a debt discharged by .bankruptcy is binding though not made to the creditor or to his authorized agent. Further:—A court has no right to submit a point assumed by counsel without some evidence from which it may be fairly inferred. It was fairly left to the jury, that if the note was not given at the time it bears date, they should find for defendant. The Courts of Common Pleas have a right to make rules to regulate a req'uesf for instruction on points; and it is- not error to refuse instruction, where according'to the rules established, they have not been submitted to the opposite counsel. Long, for the plaintiff in error ; Stevens, contra.. ° Administrators of Hertzler vs. Shoch. Judgment affirmed. Opinion by Bell J. The principle of this case settled when in Supreme Court, before (10 Barr 400) and no additional circumstances proved to withdraw it from that rule. There may be an -equity in the defendant to entitle him to recover of his co-surety, a proportion; but of this the creditor knew Nothing. The instruction that he is entitled to recover one-half of the money secured by the bond in suit is correct. Ford for plaintiff in error; A. Herr Smith, contra. — Ex. and Herald. The Ahhest of the American Consul at Hatti.— Letters have been received in Boston con firming the rumor that Mr. Wilson, the American Consul at Cape Haytien, had been imprisoned by the authorities of the Island. The cause of this outrage is thus stated : “It appears that he was arrested by the govern ment officers for doing what he believed to be his dutyr His whole offence was in ordering the seals to be removed from .an American vessel, so that she could receive a lighter load of coffee, which had arrived alongside on a Saturday afternoon, when the weather threatened a tempest. The hatches of every foreign vessel in port, are, by order of the authorities, ordered to be sealed up, excepting when the government officers are on board. Consequent ly, no cargo can be received only under their su pervision. But in this case, the weather, being so threatening, it would have been a shameful waste pf property to have left the coffee exposed in an open lighter, consequently Mr. Wilson ordered the hatches r to be removed ; and it is for this act that he was subsequently incarcerated.” ; Mr. Wilson was released through the interven tion of the French Consul, and had left for Port an Prince, where he was to appear before the black tribunal to answer for his offence. The affair will probably be investigated by our Government. It ought to be so, though the same letter, which gives this account, says the department at Wash ington has taken no notice whatever, for the last eighteen months, of the official communications of Mr. Wilson to the department, not even acknowl edging their receipt.— Ledger. J 5. W. Bear.—' This notorious relic oi the orgies of 1840, it will be remembered, was recently ar„ rested and imprisoned on a charge of seduction and adultery. The Whig press throughout the State circulated the statement that the father of the girl seduced, had dropped the charge and acknowledged that he had acted under improper advice in making it. The Pottsville Press contains a card over the signature of Mr. Staats, in which he states that he dropped the suit ar the request of Bear’s counsel upon payment of costs and expenses; at the same stipulating that Bear should leave the coun ty permanently, within a short time. He did not act under improper advice. Intelligencer & Journal, GEO. SANDERSON, EDITOR. f- Lancaster, Jane 4, i§so. DEMOCRATIC lODDHATIOSS. CANAL COMMISSIONER: WILLIAM T. MORRISON AUDITOR GENERAL: EPHRAIM BANKS. SURVEYOR GENERAL: J. PORTER BRAWLEY. To our Democratic Friends! We have a proposition to make. It is this: As soon as one hundred new paying subscribers can be obtained in Lancaster county we will enlarge the “Intelligencer,” so as to add four columju of reading matter to each number, lftme or two ac tive men in each township and borough will make the effort, we have no doubt treble that number can be obtained in a few weeks. What say our Democratic friends to the proposition? Who will be the first to move in the .matter? Williamsport Convention. We are indebted to the “Williamsport Gazette,” for a slip containing a synopsis of the proceedings of the Democratic State Convention which met at that place on Wednesday last. (The convention was permanently organized by the appointment of Henry S. Magraw, Esq., of Alleghany, President} Messrs. Arnold Plumer, J. Galbraith, Sami. Wood burn, and others, Vice Presidents ; and Wm. Jack, C. M. Johnston, G. W. Brewer, and others, Secre taries. Messrs. Frazer, Ritter, gutter, Wilson, Lynch, Thompson, Plumer, Kane and Danner, were ap. pointed a Committee to draft Resolutions. The first four Ballots for Canal Commissioner resulted as follows: Ballots. ' Ist 2nd 3d 4 th. E. B. Hubley, 33 38 42 44 N. Strickland, 30 32 . 33 39 F.

On the 21st ballot Hubley had 59; Strickland 32 ; (previously he had run up to 44,) Vanzant 37 ; Morrison 1 ; and Mar tin 1. At this stage of the proceedings a charge of bribery was made, by Mr. Johnson of this coun ty, against individuals, who had, by means of mon ey, endeavored to influence the nomination. A com mittee of investigation was raised, who ‘finally made a report exhonerating all the candidates from any improper conduct or interference with the del egates, but denouncing in the severest terms two persons, Messrs. Ranken and Oventhine, of Phila delphia, who it was proven had attempted to cor rupt delegates by offering them money to influence their votes, On Friday, five more ballots were had, on the last of which William T. Morrison, Esq., of Montgomery county, was nominated. The ballot ings were as follows: Ballots 22d _ 23d 24th 25th 26th Hubley 55 54 50 35 0 Strickland, 34 31 -29 05 4 Vanzant, 23 27 28 20 18 Morrison, 6 8 13 42 106 Martin, .10 9 10 17 1 Scattering, 1 1 0 10 On motion, the'nomination was unanimously con firmed. The Convention then proceeded to ballot for Sur. veyor General, when, on the filth ballot, J. Porter Brawley, Esq., of Crawford county, was nomina ted—he having received a majority of all the votes. Ballotings were then had for Auditor General, which resulted in the selection of Ephraim Banks, Esq., of Mifflin'county, on the third ballot. Sundry resolutions reported by Col. Frazer, re-af firming the doctrines of the Baltimore Convention of 1844 and 1848, and taking strong ground in fa vor of a compromise of the Slavery question, were then adopted, when the Convention adjourned sine die. We shall give the proceedings more at length in our next—and have only room at present to add that the nominations are excellent, such as cannot fail in giving general satisfaction to the people.— Their election by an overwhelming majority, is al ready a foregone conclusion. The Whigs may as well surrender at once. An Important Case. A suit was recently decided in one of the Courts of New Orleans, which involved the immense sum of $lOO,OOO. We clip the following synopsis of the case from one of our exchanges: It was a jury case, and the parties to it were A. W. Gordon, for the use of James Dundas, et al, (trustee of the United States Bank) vs. James Ir win.. The merits of the case seemed to be briefly these: The late Judge Hitchcock, of Alabama, the brother-in-law of Mr. Irwin, was, at the time of his decease, in the autumn of 1839, indebted to the United States Bank in the sum of about a mil lion ot dollars—such at least is the allegation made by thoße who represent that institution. For this they held mortgages on his property. In the spring of 1840, the bank sent out an agent to Mobile, with the view of having the matter in some manner arranged. Mr. Irwin, assuming to speak for and in-behalf of Mrs. Hitchock, his Bister, the widow and universal assignee of the late Judge Hitchcock, put himself in communication, as the mesmerisers say, with the agent of the bank ; and, after consid erable diplomacy on both sides, the agent of the bank agreed to pay Mr. Irwin, in pogt noteß of the bank, one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. The consideration for which this money was paid forms the animus in the case. The representatives of the bank contend, and adduce proof to sustain, the al legation, that it was given to get amicable posses sion of the property on which they held mortgage, and for full satisfaction of all other claims on it. Irwin meets this by three different allegations: Firstly, he Btates that the S 150,000 were paid him to satisfy certain confidential creditors of the estate of Judge Hitchcock, one of whom he was himself for some 546,000. Secondly, that it was given him as the agent of Mrß. Hitchcock, the sole devisee, on condition of her making over to the bank an immediate and amicable assignment of all the property on which it held mortgage ; and thirdly, though this point was not strongly urged, that it was given him for having assigned to the bank six stores in Mobile, of the estate of Judge Hitchcock, on wh ch, as on his other property, they held a mortgage. It appeared in evidence that, on receiving the $150,000, in post notes, Irwin came to this city, had them discounted in the City Bank, and, with a portion of the proceeds, paid a large debt of hit own to that institution. The nominal party to the present suit, A. W. Gordon, had, in 1836, sold a tract of Jand to a cer tain company, of which Judge Hitchcock was a prominent member. He took their individual notes for the amount of their respective shares ; and it is those passed to him by Hitchcock, but never paid, that forms the basis of the present suit. They amount to some $BO,OOO, with interest at 8 per cent, per annum, since 1840—making about $lOO,- 000. The point on which the plaintiff’s counsel relied was, that Irwin, by using the $150,000 or any por'ion of it, for his own use, to the prejudice of his creditors, made him an executor, in hit own wrong, and, as such, accountable to the other cred itors for the amount due them respectively by the estate. J The court sustained the point, and the jury foaid for the plaintiff the amount it claimed. Election in San Francisco. By a late copy of the Pacific News, we learn that the result of the election held in San Francisco, on Monday, April 15, was as follows: Jack Hats, independent, elected Sheriff! by a majority of two thousand, over Brtant, Democrvt: Morrison, Whig, County Judge, by a majority ot 247 over Mange, Dem.: Bxnham, Whig, District Attorney, by a majority of more than.2oo over Alexander Wells, Democrat. The other officers: County At torney, Mr. Smith, County Recorder, Mr, Gltnn, (who defeats Orrin Bailet, Whig, late of this ci ty)—County Clerk, John E. Addison, late of Washington city—Assessor, Mr. Chaunct: Treas urer, Mr. Eddx: Coroner, Mr. Gallagher, and Clerk Supreme Court, Mr. Tharp, are all Demo crats. EF’Rev. John Nswland Maffit, one of the most eloquent men of the age, died'at Mobile, on the 25th of May. The Geographical Party—A Party of One Idea. There is a striking similarity in the latter periods of the lives of John Quincy Adams and Martin Van Buren. Both were elevated to the Presidency, and were allowed to serve but for a single term.— The Democratic party, aided by its feithfal allies of the South, relieved each of them from return to power* and consigned both of them to private life* Vindictiveness was the passion of each, and both made war upon the South for the gratification of revenge. But revenge is slow and life is short.— Adams died unavenged, but left a son to inherit the passion of the father, and make war upon the Constitution, as “a covenant with hell.” Van Buren still lives, but the weakness of declining years, and •the odor of an apostat*s reputation, having left him stranded and powerless for mischief, he rejoices in a son, who inherits the malice of the father, and may accomplish his revenge. Charles Francis Adams and John Van Buren were thus started upon their hereditary mission and first met at Buffalo, to take the oaths for the new crusade. About the same time, a little foxy individual, who loved power with the usual infirmity of noble minds, stood prominently in the market place, with hfs stock in trade nearly exhausted. Anti*Masonry had died a natural death. Poor Ireland was sitting silent in her tears, but Repeal had become flat and unprofitable. Anti*Rentism still survived, but the ambition, which could delight in the invasion of social rights, needed higher objects and a more ex tended field. Anti-Slavery was the thing which this enlightened and humane individual seized upon, as the ladder to power. Captivated with his new mistress, he revels in the anticipations of pleasures, which the warmest indulgence of his old passions had failed to realize. Thus, by the course of events and their individual tastes, William H. Seward and John Van Buren are found to stand on the same platform—both pursuing the same object, though impelled by motives, some what different in character. John Van Buren rides the hobby to please his venerable father; Seward, for love of the human race. How these two individuals hope to build up a geographical party—“the great Anti-slavery party of the North’—upon the ruins of the old national parties of the country—how Van Buren expects to seduce the weak, the sentimental and the corrupt of the Democrats—how Seward has promised to assist the young hopeful with the corruption of his public patronage, &c., &c., we will show at some future day, when we can find time and stomach to. record the growing degeneracy of public men. New York Globe. Peculations of the Galphin Cabinet. It would be doing the country a service, says the : Baltimore Argus, if some one at Washington would place before the public a brief history of the nu merous out lawed claims' which have been trumped up and allowed by the present Cabinet. It would seem 7 that some settled purpose to bankrupt the Treasury had been matured by the administration. Claims of the most doubtful character—accounts which have been carefully investigated and unhesi tatingly rejected by former administrations, have in many instances been recognized, and paid against law and justice by the different departments.— Under this system of extravagance and fraud, the Treasury is exhausted ; and, as if to add still more to the embarrassment of the nation and exh.bit in bold relief the inconsistency of Whiggen. . Tr. Tatlor is demanding from Congress a lar- > ad j dition to the rank and file of the Army. There j was a time when, under the administration of a j civilian—one who had never shown any partiality j for the Army, or for feats of noble daring—we mean Martin Van Buren, the Whigs clamored dread fully at the proposition to classify the militia, and the terrific cry of a standing army was sung through, out the country to the consternation and horror of all the old women in the land. Now when a pro* fused soldier , whose sole merit consist in his supposed Military skill, asks, in a time of profound peace to have the reguiar forces of the country doubled, at an enormous expense, consistent Whiggery either approves the call, or is silent as the grave. Will the organs of the administration explain this in. consistency ? Will they tell the Nation for what special purposes this increase of the Army is de. sired? Perhaps Gen. Tatlor designs to send a command to Cuba to r assist ner Spanish Majesty, in case there should be a rising of the Cuban popula tion. We should like to understand the matter, and ask for information. . Reform in Virginia. Henry A. Wise has announced himself a candi date to represent Accomac and Northamption in the State Convention of Virginia. He says he is in favor of biennial sessions of the Legislature; public schools; encouragement of agriculture and the mechanic arts by the State ; universal suffrage to white citizens ; election of governor, executive and municipal officers, sheriffs, attornies, clerks, con stables, &c., by the people; also that judges be elec ted by the people, but no judge to sit alone on the bench in a cause where one of the parties has voted for and the other against him. The judges of the Court of Appeals, he thinks, might be elected by general ticket, and the inferior judges by the people of each circuit. No man ought to sit on the bench after he is 60 years of age, and judges to be re ; eligible after a definite term of years. He is in favor of abolishing the Executive Council and County Courts, and goes for electing magistrates and police officers by the people, and for paying all officers a just compensation. He is opposed to allowing any man to vote iu more than one county, no matter what amount of property he owns, the only qualification in the voter, he think*, should be 21 years of age, 1 year a resident of the State, and 6 months in the county. The Iron Interest. By the latest news from Great Britain, it appears that a large proportion of the iron-manufacturers have agreed to blow out their furnaces. This is a significant fact. We have asserted that the British were forcing their iron into this country, for the sake of competition, and at ruinous prices to thems,elves. These things, by the inevitable laws of the cast of the product, and the course of trade, find th<»ir level, as streams of water do. The British man ufacturers find that they can no longer play their hazardous game of underselling the American, without ruin to themselves. The con" sequence will be, that we shall be partially relieved from thfiir dreaded competition in this respect. The same position of things about, twenty years since, in regard to woollen manufactures, wh'en the British made enormous sacrifices, to the extent, in many cases, of absolute bankruptcy, in order to diive us to xhe wall. But the effort was unavailing, and with a less protective tariff! the proprietors of our woolen factories are now earning adequate profits.— Pennsylvanian, R7"We are exceedingly gratified to see that Mr. Guffbt, one of the steadfast Democratic members from Westmoreland County, in the late Legislature, has generously corrected some of the remarks at tributed to him in a reply to John Cessna, Esq., from Bedford County, unquestionably a most in* valuable and thorough-going advocate of the Dem ocratic party and the best interests of the State.— The letter of Mr. Guffet appears in the last Gazette and Westmoreland Republican , and does him honor. CD"The Democracy of Maryland? appear to be delighted wjth their candidate for Governor, Mr. Lowe— and, j udging from the tone of the press and the demonstrat ions of the people, we do not doubt but that he will be triumphantly elected in October next. C7“The Supreme Court of this State has decided, that a promise by a bankrupt to pay a debt dischar ged by bankruptcy, is binding, though not made to the creditor or bjs authorized agent. The Deficit When Mr. Secretary Meredith so authoritatively proclaimed a deficit in the revenue of sixteen millions of dollars, says the Washington Union, he ascribed the disastrous result to the Mexican war. If he had assured the people thatit was the work of the Galphin plunderers, he wooldhave hit the nail upon the head, and have commanded the universal assent of the people to the truth of the statement When the people learn the factthatnearly ONE MILLION OF DOLLARS have been paid out of the treasury by the present Galphin cabinet in the first year of their reign, on fraudulent and unfounded claims, re jected by fomer administrations, and that a principle, with regard to the allowance of such claims, has been adopted which will lead to the payment of more than FORTY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, without additional appropriations by Congress, they will know how thereof has really been created, and why Mr. Meredith estimates it at sixteen millions of dollars. Surely the Galphin cabinet is as illus trious for its fiscal ability as its members are skilful in the art of feathering their own nests. What cabinet minister ever before pocketed $115,000 as agent of claims, nearly all of which he received while holding his place in the cabinet 7 The peo ple—the hard-working farmers and mechanics of the country—will ponder upon these facts; and they will, as surely as day follows day, hold these trea sury plunderers to their accountability. Education In England. A work has been recently published in London giving some account of the social condition and education of the people in England, as compared with other parts of Europe. The book is regarded as a well-digested production, and its statements are taken as good authority in relation to the mat ters of which it treats. * v Among the statistical facts presented by thfc publication, says the Baltimore American, is an authentic estimate that some eight millions of per sons in England and Wales cannot read or write. This is nearly one-half the entire population. It is also calculated that of all the children in England and Wales between the ages of five and fourteen years, more than half the number do not attend s.-hool at all; and. that those belonging to the poorer classes who do receive instruction, receive such a meagre and inefficient amount as to render it of no practical value. The same paper states, that in 1770 there were two hundred and fifty thousand freehold estates in England, in the hands of as many independent families—whereas, at the close of 1815, the whole of the land in that country belonged to but thirty two thousand proprietors. “ Under ordinary cir cumstances,” says the London Times, “an English laborer has no more prospect of becoming a pro prietor than he has of acquiring a kingdotfi.” The contrast which is presented to this state of things by the condition of the general population in the United States, with the opportunities given to industry and enterprise, and with the diffusion of knowledge by common schools, speaks with much emphasis and force in favor of the superiority of our institutions. Yet a great deal remains to be done still in this country in the way of elevating labor, combining it with intelligence, and giving it increased assurances of comfort—a great deal, too, in the of causing education to be more tho roughly diffused, so . that it might come to be re garded as the birthright of every American citizen. The tendencies, however, in both respects are on ward. Every year must witness some advance in each improvement. We have been a self-governing people by virtue, in some measure of habit, tradi tions, common law usages, familiarity with the formulas of local administration—old Anglo-Saxon instincts. But, as changes go on, as innovations take place, as the requirements of new eras tend to displace the customs and ideas of previous epochs, it will be necessary to substitute the self-government of rational intelligence and high moral sentiment in the place of those transmitted elements which the mutations of the times may remove. Every age has its own wants, and usually the means of supplying them—if it possess the sagacity to per ceive them and the candor to acknowledge them, as they are. We have been eminently fortunate as people, but increase of years brings an increase of responsibilities. Let us hope that wisdom and true patriotism will also increase commensurately. The North Branch Canal. At the late session of the legislature a law was passed appropriating a quarter of a million of Dol lars for the completion of the North Branch Canal» provided the amount so applied shall not increase the State debt. If in the opinion of the Auditor General and State Treasurer, there is likely at any time to be a deficiency in the revenues of the Com monwealth to meet the interest of the State debt the ordinary expenses of government, and the re-’ pairs of the canals and railroads heretofore com pleted, it shall be their duty to withhold all or so much of the made , to the North Branch Canal as shall be requisite for those objects. These officers have made the proposed estimate of the revenues and expenditures for the year end ing June Ist 1851 and find that they amount to $4,039,176.14 expenditures, against $4,065,974.46 of estimated revenues. From this statement, it ap pears that there will be a surplus oi $26,768,32 in the Treasury after paying alt legal demands upon it. It is understood therefore that the Canal Com missioners are about to take the necessary steps to put the whole of this work under contract, as the sum appropriated by the legislature, may be drawn from the Treasury, without an increase of the Stat e debt or in any way embarrassing the revenue. Trouble Ahead. The Boston Courier, a leading Whig organ, thus exposes the interesting position of its party : There is rebellion in the camp. The standard of revolt is reared, and rival leaders unfurl their ban- 1 ners for followers. Mr. Clay, instead of quietly working, in harness, and coming in to the aid and support of the administration, avows his contempt for its policy, and announces a grand “compromise,”, with a flourish of trumpets, which is to supersede all plans for the settlement of the territorial and slavery questions. Mr. Webster fails to recognize any virtue in the administration plan of settlement, and likewise marks out a course for himself. Thus we go. What can come of it all, but weakness, dispersion and dissolution, so far as the whig party is concerned ? Can a party stand, with its leading men pulling openly in different directions on a great question of public and party policy? It will not take a thimble-full of brains to answer the question. The northern whig party, we fear, is already temporarily shipwrecked, so far as success in the elections goes, in consequence of these divisions. And unless there shall be a speedy change in the tactics of some of the leading men of the party, we foresee nothing but disaster upon disaster to the whigs, throughout the north. Can anybody fail to see, (and seeing it, shall we ack nowledge it,) that Mr. Webster’s speech is a bomb fired into the ranks of the free States, and threatens, nay is producing a most disastrous explosion ? Wheeling Bridge Cabs.— Washington, May 30. The Supreme Court has issued an order di recting Chancellor Walworth, of New York, to take new testimony, whether the Wheeling Bridge impedes navigation so as to constitute a nuisance. The Canadian Parliament. — Toronto, May 29. The Inspector General stated in the Legislative Assembly, this afternoon, that the Canadian Gov ernment will not grant freedom of navigation to the United States, unless the latter assent to reci procity. Death of a Venerable learn from the Baltimore Sun, that Rev. Jacob Gruber, of the Baltimore Annual Conference, died at Lew istown, Pa., on Saturday last, in the 73d year of bisage. In March last, he completed his fiftieth year of active itinerant life, and desired to have one year s rest jubilee, and was accordingly left without an appointment, but he was called to en dure great bodily suffering, and closed his earthly career in peace. LETTER FROM WASHINGTON. Cwrwpgadeaea of (lie lotellifoneer. Washington, May 31, 1850. Hon. Jas.Buchanan—Congress and the Slavery :J^ P ■ EBT^ OW ~^~^ T ' AJ^ * IWTESTIOATniO COMMIT EWWSTLVAW IA AND Bt» Mpmlrm qF CoN OAXSS —Southern CONTENTION, &C., &c. Mr Buchanan’s position and opinions upon the Slavery question, have been fully and clearly expres sed; and I think that his real friends should test satisfied. Let events take their course, and leave the Free Soil Editors of newspapers, such as. the Philadelphia Times Keystone, and Washington letter writers to indulge their idle speculations in regard to the particular views of the ablest and soundest statesman of the day, James Buchawaw, whose distinguished services rendered his country in the Senate and the Cabinet, has merited for him ; just title of ** Pennsylvania’s Favorite Son;” that has inscribed, like Andrew Jackson, in the hollow of his hand, come what may, “ this glorious Union, it must and shall be preserved.” Both Houses of Congress, at least the extreme sections, still continue to agitate, agitate, and agi tate the fearful question of Slavery. God only knows how and when this protracted and dark con troversy will terminate. For myself, I am for a compromise of some kind—one that will unite and i bind together the great Democratic party of the ! North, Souih and West. A compromise could have been effected by this time, if the Southern Senators and members had not changed their opinions so very often. The Southern newspaper, I think, will do much towards exciting the popular mind of the free States against the South and their « peculiar institution,” which is their own sin, moral and pol itical, with which the people of the non-slave holding states have no constitutional right to in terfere with, in any manner or form, whatever. The House Committee, composed of nine mem bers, Stanley, of North Carolina, Chairman, or dered forthe purpose of investigating into the official conduct of certain Democratic Clerks, in the several Executive Departments, under Mr. Polk’s admin istration, met on Monday last. lam informed that Judge Young, late" Commissioner of the General Land Office, now Clerk of the National House of Representatives, has been summoned to appear before this highly interesting(l) committee. Mr. Stanley, one of the champions of the Galphin firm, will try to glean some wonderful testimony from Mr. Young ; but in this attempt, he and his party will be greatly disappointed. Judge Young is a talented and*radical Democrat, a strong party man, and a gentleman in every respect. Rev. Jwo. Robb, who was Chief Clerk in the General Land Office under Mr. Young, and now principal Clerk in the Clerk’s Office of the House of Representatives, has, also, been summoned to stand in the presence of Mr. Stanley. Mr. Robb fought, and gallantly too, under Gen. Jackson at the battle of New Orleans, and I know that he cannot be in any way intimida ted by the interrogatories that may be put to' him by Stanley, or any of the members of the Com mittee. Gen. McCalla, late 2nd Auditor of the Treasury, has been notified that his presence will be required' at the Committe room. Mr. McCalla is a bold political leader, both as a speaker and a writer, and I am not mistaken when I say that Stanley will be handsomely floored by McCalla’s withering answers tointerrogatories emanating from the Whig side of this novel investigating committee. Several prominent members of the Democratic ' party of this city, have been notified to attend the sessions of the Committee. The whole proceeding is a very small business; entirely too much so, to be occupying the precious time and grave consid eration of members of the American Congress. Will any man, be he Whig or Democrat, subject himself to the unwarranted presumptions of any upstart in Congress, because he contributed his The contents of the foreign papers, received by money, when in office for party purposes? \AII the steamer Asia, are important, and point with honorable minded men will say no! something of probability, to a rupture between The Democratic party of Pennsylvania should be ■ t * l ! se t * lree £ real P owerß - The causes of the diffl proud of her talented and industrious Representa- SLm “im"? dis;^ Ctly * nd coherently stated, but lives in Congress 1 j * seem all t 0 have their origin in the so-called “Greek ves in Longress.

In Virginia, a movement was made, recently, to postpone the meeting of the Conven tion to a later date, as there was considerable feel ing against the propriety of the meeting at the South, unless every State could be represented.— In Tennessee, a majority of the people are op posed to it, and a meeting lately held in Nash ville, passed resolutions declaring the movement a violation of the Constitution of the United States, and could be productive only of evil effects, which means, the first step towards the breaking up of this Union.
