It will be seen, lu the first place, that not a single Whig from Pennsylvania > yoted for the resolution; and se condly, that hut seven Whigs from the Northern States voted in its favor. The latter, so tar as ~ purinfomatiopextends, ore opposed to the nom ination of Gen. Scott for the Presidency. The Scott Whigs from the North, to a man, voted against,the resolution; omongst the number was the Hon- Thomas M. Hows, the member from this district Thus have the Whigs of the North declared that theydo not “ deprecate all further agitation of'the questions growing out of that sot of' theiftrt Congress, known as the Compro «;»» act—and, of questions generally connected With theinstitution of Slavey, as unnecessary, useless - and dangerous.” In other words, the ] Scott Whigs aro determined to he agitator?, and.! fanatics, and to continue to, fan -the Annies of discord,'and disturbtho, peace of.our beloved Union. It will bo'secn, aleSv ; that 6TCiyfD,emo* erode member from Pennsylvania,, who *as in Washington, except Mr. GnoW, (Wtlmot’a sno cessbrj) voted forthe Compromise These democrats arei Messrs.

The editor of the Pennsylvanian says ; that hebappens to know that it theyhad been in "Washington they would have acted with the majority of their colleagues upon this great question. Indeed they, one and all, regretted the necessity, that compelled them to leave for home,: in order to arrange their busi ness usual to settling day in the interior, which is the Ist of April, and which, usually leaves work onough for a week afterwards. Mr. Gil-. more was called to the bedside of his suffering wife, who has boon for several monthspast quito i . ill; .ot her father’s, in Maine. All' the gentle men, wo repeat, would have voted with the ma jority of the colleagues on tho resolutions, if they had been in their seats on Monday.' COAL FIELDS OF SCHUTLEILL CO. We havo-recontly met with some curious put H-l cations in regard to theCoul Fields of Schuylkill I County. Untilrecently it was generally; Sup-1 posed that tho coal veins in that county were I nearly worked out, and many apprehended that I not only would the land be depreciated in value, but that thousands of persons (miners) would be I compelled to find employment elsewhere, or at I some other occupation. Bocently, however, 1 some investigations have been made on this sub-1 jeet, which go to show that the Mines of Schuyl-1 kilt county are inexhaustible. About two years ago, Mr.: E. W. SEGlnnis, .a citizen of Pottsville, commenced sinking a shaft; in the suburbs of that place, to ascertain if there was a strata of coal deeper in the bowels of the I earth than that whioh was then being worked. Many folks declared that he was a madman, spending his time to no purposc. Time proved, however, that his theory was correct ; for be found an immense white ash vein of coal, some: hnndreds of feet below the surface of the earth. Other veins have also been discovered, of almost incredible thickness and extent. Mr. Hunky C. Cauev has sank oporpendicular shaft, near St, Clair; commencing in the red nßh, and penetra ting at tho depth of4oofeet, the great mammouth vein of whito nsh coal, about 32 feet thick! It is said that there, are other veins, underlying this, still to bo. reached. It is estimated that tho bed hero spoken of will yield 1000 tons per aero for every foot in . thickness, or 32,000 tons per aero for this Binglo vein alone, which ot ren tal of 23 oents per ton, will yield $B,OOO per acre! A correspondent of the Philadelphia Ltigtr, to whom wo arc indebted for the above facts, says: “If we calculate that there arc about eighty squaro miles in the first coal field, con taining this one vein of coal; it will afford 1,038,- 400,000 tons of coal ; or 20,480,000 tons of coal to every square mile—and n rental of $409,000,- 000, or $5,120,000 for containing the mammouth vein; which tho poorest compre hension can now see underlies nearly the whole Pottsville basin.” ifhc editor of the Pottsville RegitUr. who has given considerable attention to tho olacidation of tho coal theory, has arrived at the conclusion that these now cool veins can be worked with profit From an articlo on this subject publish ed in the lost number ot that paper wo make the following extraot:, "Of the theory winch is now considered set-1 fled, wo have heretofore given .explanations.— There may, be, however; some who arc still un acquainted with it, and who are unable to farm an idea of the nature and value of the discov ery. We, therefore, explain again briefly, viz: “It has not bean doubted; we believe,j|that the largo seams of white ash coal whioh are exposed at the Lehigh Summit, forming their great mine, extending under tho whole of the Schnylkillcoal field, although they appear and are worked only at the Northern edge of it We conceived that it lay in the shape of a deep: and narrow basin, coming np to tho surfaco only at two points ! represented by the edge of the oblong basin; and | as one of the edges whioh rises in the Sharp- - mountain is shaken and disturbed, it has been considered unworkable. The only white ash coal, therefore, that we have considered availa ble at present is that whichoomcs np to the snr faoo on the Northern (or Mine-lull and Broad mountain) edge of tho oasin. “The great supposed depth to which wo shoold have to sink through solid rocks to get at these big veins of coal in the intermediate three miles across tho coal.basin, would have involved an outlay of money that could not have been made to pay for its cost.. “Now the discovery which wo reoord proves, that instead of these big veins making; but one curved lino, extending at great depths under and across the coal basin, they form tix or seven curved lines; - tho upper part of each curve (wo call this tho saddle) ooming up so near tho sur face as to bo easily and oheaply reached by a workable shaft. Thus making thesa big veins workable through, tho whole length and breadth of the Schnylldll coal Sold.” ' THE LAKB BOBTE TO THE WEST, The opening of Bailroad communication ho- I tween thiscity and Cleveland, has opened a new I era in the progress of emigration westward. But I a few years since, the route was considered at-1 most as remarkable as a tour through Europe, j and tho person who would undertake it was,con-1 sidcred a most adventurous man. - They travoled I with a mere ‘tkit,t’ and scarcely evef shaved da-1 ring a three month’s voyage; and when they.l came home, the wonderful stories they told were I as entertaining as any recorded in the Arabian I Nights or tho Paßha of Many Tales. : '■ ' • j i But what was, by former voyageurs, considered I a dangerous end wonderful tour, ib now made a I pleasure trip of a few hours. Ten years since, '! Chicago appeared to be as far from us, almost, os I China, and it was onlyknown by report. Now, : the progress of modern improvement has annlhi-1 latcd timo and space, and it is brought almost to I our very door. = 1 As will be seen by an advertisement in our I paper this morning, travelers starting from Pitts- i bnrgh can,now reaoh Chicago in tha short time ] of thirty-four .hours. Wo havo been assured that | ■it will he dono in less time, hut as we afe in no-1 wise credulous, wo give them a margin of two hours. This may nppoar wonderful, but with a | fall reliance in the source from which wo have our information, we- have not a doubt of its truthfulness. 1 By referring to the advertisement we have men tionedj it will be seen that the line of steamers are of the first class, provided with every accom modation required to contribute to the comfort of passengers, and officered by men who ore worthy to be called gentlemen in the best sense of the word. We are acquainted with Capt. Peaece, of the Forest City (formerly of the Southern), and we ean commend him and his splendid boat to onr fellow-citizens as worthy of their especial patron age, when they desire to take a voyage on tho lakes. One great advantage of Uub route west ward—and it is on advantage worthy of the con sideration of a man who loves his ease—.is, that we can enjoy onr ordinary rest and regular meals with the same promptness, anal comfort that we expect to get these very neoesssiyenjoymenta at home.

The Second District. MEssnsßniTons:—Can you tell me whether there is or is not a Street Commissioner in the Second District ? v If there is, I should like to have a look at tho man as a natural curiosity.-] For many years I have never had so much dif ficulty in getting over the street crossings as in ; this; andwlien a trifling-attention to them would obviate it.: The crossing of Fulton and Webster.; Btreots has been horrible all winter, savo in the extreme frosty weather; nod I am assured that its condition is solely owing to tho imbocility of i the individual who consumes the people’s taxes i with tho official appendage to his name ,of 1 “Street Commissioner.” But I cannot beliovc l thK I choose rather to believe that, for tho i sake of economising, tho Counoils have filled tho i office with a man of straw—a bodiless incorpo i real creation—to fill an official vacuum, andsavo I expenses. Am I right, or. am I not right ? Norr. —Our correspondent will find, when the i city acconutß are settled, that his man of straw ' has not forgotten to draw his salary from the city treasury. Wo can vouch,, howover, for all onr correspondent has said about the crossing of Fulton and Webster streets, for wo have fre quently gono half a dozen squares out of our way, to avoid being swallowed up in its muddy reservoirs. It would bo. more to’tho credit'of Street Commissioners if they would put some of tho army in tho pay of tho city to do something i for pedestrians, Instead- of keeping them at I scratching the sand from between ; paving stones I for tho benefit of those who ride in carriages.

Itiß course of procedure, we learn from one of his most intimate friends,. wIH be to assume a passive attitude for the pres ent, in the assured belief that events are rapidly hurrying onwards to a groat crisis both in Ger many and Italy, Then will bo tho time for Hun gary’s redemption—towards which consumma tion ho expects no inconsiderable aid from tho 40,000 muskets whioh tho Americans have fur nished him with; But ■ better ; BtlU—rhp has as surances, about which there oan bo no mistake, that though the United States have not formally promised to interfere on behalf of the Magyars, n any future struggle in whioh they may engage with Austria, yet that America wilt interfere, should Russia, or any other despotio power, come to the aid of Austria, with'a view of put ting down tho Magyars.-— London- .Advertiser. Tun Nnano Race.— Bayard Taylor, writing from Nubia, in Upper Egypt, says:—“Those friends of tho African race, who point to Egypt as a proof of what that Tace has accomplished, are wholly mistaken. Tho only Negro features represented in Egyptian sculpture aro those of slaves and captives taken in tho Ethiopian wars of the Pharoahs. The temples and pyramids : throughout Nubia, as far as the Darfur and - Abyssinia, all bear tho hieroglyphs of, tho.,mon arohs, and there is no evidence in ail the valley •of tho Nile that the Negro raoo ever attained a higher degree of civilization - than is at present exhibited in Congo and Ashantoo. I mention this, not from any feeling hostilo to that race, but Bimply to controvert on opinion very preva lent in eomo parts of tho United States.” Abolition or Small Notes.— The corporation of Georgetown, D. C., has in circulation about $70,000 in small■ notes, and"the fear wo pro-; sumo, that' Congress may pass a law to provent the further circulation of suoh a currency, in duced a committee from that town consisting of themayor recorder and. two others, to -have a cbnference with the District oommitteo of the; House of Representatives,- on Thursday. The, result is not known. .• ■ .. Wisconsin Leqislation.— The bill proposing to abolish the death penalty woe killed in the •House of Representatives of Wisconsin on the 22d ultimo, by a voto of 35 to 27. A bill ex empting church property from taxation was re fused engrossment by 52 to 11.
