Blacx as their choice from first to last. We believe that the peo ple or tho county are influenced in their choico by no feelings of mere local partially, but by on earnest desire to secure the best interests of tho Common wealth in the promotion of a gallant soldier, who, sacrificing to the call of his country the closest and dearest ties, left his family friends and tho en joyment of a brilliant and profitable professional ca reer, to accompany our armies through tbe arduous campaigns of Mexico. Resulted, That tho Democracy or Allegheny coun ty, in presenting the name of Col. SAMUEL W. BLACK as their candidate for the next Democratic nomination lor Governor of this Commonwealth, can point with pride and pleasure to tbe recorded testimony ol his serviees in the cause or pure repub licanism ; to his untiring industry as a laborer in the ranks, and to bis able and effective eloquence, when ever and wherever, ns an exponent of the great prin ciciples and truths of Democracy, he has been called upon to appear before the people. All who have ucard him sustain us in the opinion now expressed, that no ono could bo selected better calculated to I condoet us safely and triumphantly through tho op* [ preaching contest. Gen.

K ■ FROM HARRIS BERG. coa as spo no Bites or xso mooning post. NUMBER XXXI. ■■ Habbhboeo, February 22. Yesterday’s session in the House was marked with eo little of interest, that I could not, from all that was done, glean material for a letter. A resolution was offered and passed to the effect that the twenty-second should be observed by the House by the invitation of the Senate, Executive’ and Heads of Departments, to be present at the reading of Washington’s Farewell Address by the Chair. Also a resolution to print 0000 each in English and 3000 in German, of Washington’s Farewell Address, Jackson’s Farewell Addresß, and Jackson’s Proclamation to thj people of South Carolina. -It was a glorious tribute to the memory of the illustrious Jackson to authorize the printing of these noble papers of his in con. nection with the immortal Add Tess of Washing- ton Yeare ago it was predicted that the day would arrive when the memory of Jackson would be cherished and revered, not only as one of the ablest and soundest American Statesmen, bat as the true and enlightened patriot. The glory that I surrounds his name is growing brighter with every I day, and 1 confidently hope to see the day when I party prejudices will be overcome, and Whig and I Democrat unite in paying the tribute of profound I respect and veneration to'hiß memory. ; , I A""bill was passed through the,Hoose, compel- I ling the Harrisburg and Lancaster Railroad Com* I pany to fence in their road in the county of Dau- • ] phin: Although ho charge of any unfair «ibten« I tion could be sustained against Mr. Kunkle, who I presented it, the passage of this bill is only another I exemplification of the careless and hasty system of legislation whichissometimes tolerated here. The bill, although right enough in intention, was quite unfair in its application to. this particular company, r The Representatives of the Common* wealth declared by their vote that this particular road should be fenced its entire length, for the purpose of protecting the lives of citizens and cattle; .while, at the same time, all the puifie roads are permitted to rem ain in the same unsafe condition complained .of .in this particular case. So soon as one of the members rose and asked for a reconsideration of. the vote, the truth flashed upon the minds of the .whole House, that hasty and in judicious legislation had been done. On Mr Kunkle's own motion the further discussion of the matter was postponed Until Monday, when a general bill will he introduced, and, I think, passed, - In the Senate, the whole of the session was oc* copied by Mr. Packer’s speech on the bill propos* rag to tax the tonnage and passengers on the York ] and Cumberland Road. He opposed the bill, and ! warmly supported the amendments, which, as, T believe, 1 stated in ray last, were of each a char* acter as to render the whole bill with them at* tached a mere farce. Unless a tax be levied upon the tonnage and passengers on this: road, the in* terests of the State must Suffer largely. This morning (he House met at (he usual hour, and immediately after the reading of the Journal the Senate, Governor and- Heads ol Departments were iotrodased, and listened to the reading of 'Washington's Farewell Adddress—after which both Houses adjourned. At one o'clock, General Houston arrived. :He was escorted to BuehlerVPemocralic Head Quar ters by John S. Rhey, Esq., Mr. Fegely of Berks, and Senator Ives, Where he was waited upon by a large number of friends. In the afternoon the ladies of the Episcopal Church waited ugon him, for the purpose'of pay ing their respects prepara tory to the lecture he was to deliver in behalf of their church—when lot the General expressed his regrets that the importunities of his friends had led him to ask to be excused from delivering bis lecture In the Court House, as. had been proposed; with , true Texan gallantry, however," declaring himself bound to comply with the wishes of the : ladies, whatever they might be. : The ladies did not feel disposed to yield, and .breakers, were seen ■ ahead, when soma ol the gentlemen present pro*, posed to satisfy them by promising to cpllect or donate the sum ot $3OO for the use of the church, upon the condition that the General should be re leased. This proposition was.acceded to at once I by theiadies, who appeared to have jio other ob ject in view than the money far, the-church; and it was ’forthwith announced that admission to Gen, Houston’s lecture would be free for all, and that ft would be delivered in the, Hall of , the House. This drew a very crowded audience, who listened attehßvely'rfoVheariy two hours, to a dis course on the Early History of'Texas. The sub ject was an interesting one, and,as .the.speakar had participated in many of tttescenes he descri. bed, additional interest was, given it by. that fact The General leaves on to-morrow for New York sprig.; SCRIBBLINGS AND CUPPINGS. ; - Bank oflrelandhasuicreased the minimum rite ofiQtere9t frotn two-and*a-half to three per cent, on advances*., ' '• ’ "•/ ' Several grocers Ittßelfast have been heavily fined for having in their possession an article-called P.'D.j which is used in Ibo adulteration.of pepper. .. , ; Efforts are being made in London to organize, a body of guides and interpreters for BtTahgerSjVisiUng the metropolisduringlhe Exhibilidn., .. ... • ; .. * —- The only English newspapers adnutted into Borne are the Times and fiJbmirig pkronicU, which aw permit ted only to the English Club.
