confirmation of the intelligence of this
noble and patriotic act of our enlighlened
and independent Governor, was received
throughout our region with feelings of
high exultation and enthusiasm. At first
we had a more rumor on the subject;some
what contradictory, as rumors generally
are,-which at length ripened into a cer
tainty, and was followed by the Mestiage
itself, disclosing the indubitable feet so
ardently desired and expected, that the
Governor had returned the , bill, without
his signature. This important public do
•cument we publish in another column of
our paper, and recomme nd the same to the
attentive perusal of all who seek to become
acquainted with correct principles and
sound arguments in relation to therni-,.
mous Influence of incorporated mono iloliev.
The reasons therein given for the execu
tive course are truly unanswerable, and
are such as do the highest possible honor
'to - the head and heart of one who has pro
ved himself to be really and truly.. the
ChaniTion of the People's Rights. He
t' has dome that to which he was impelled
by every obligation of duty and patriotism,
but which will procure for him the lasting
esteem and approbation of men of all par

enitable manner. Tk.ousands of the
industrious classes in this celebra
tion, because it is their interests, more
• especially, which have been protected and
espoused by the Governor:. The truth is
his whole executive course has manifested
a devotion to the rights and interests of
the-holiest yeomanry of thci country far tlr
pasging any thing to l;ie 'met with in the
history of any of his predecessors! The
reason of...this may be found in the fact
that he himself is one of the, yeomanry—
a ,farmer who was once accustomed to
earn his bread by the sweat•of his brow.
He can therefore understand the interests
and sympathize with the feelings and views
of the industrious classes. He knows what
it is to handle the ,plough, and drive the
team a-field, and no mantes') say that he
is any the worse statesrnau on this ac
count. Let the honest yeomanry; then of
our country, testify their grateful sense of
his merits; because, in doing honor: to him
they at the same time are 'paying a. tribute
of respect to themselves; lecause,in sup ,
porting him, they are at ithe -same time
supporting their true interests; and, be
cause he possesses their awn -virtues, in
corruptible integrity, ;fearless independ

ASSIGNING HIS REASONS OR *EPVSINQ
HIS sicowruzz : • •
To di &rate of Pennayl • , nia,
GIifirTLEXEN.-I am co , palled- to' re
turn the bill entitled "An ac incorporating
the Offerfnan Rail Road an , Mining com
pany" without he Executi e signature.
It will in recollected th t at the com
mencement of the present session a bill
passed by the preceding gislature, in
corporating eleven coal, co ~ panics, was re
turned to the Senate. The Merman Coal
company was embraced in hat bill, under
c ga
the title of the Buck Ridge oal co pang.
The objections at that ti ~ e ante tented,
have since, been neither -moved or di
minished.- They were the , stated inst

felt against each separat ,, y. They are
therefore, now repeated; s my general
reasons against the incor , • ration of coal

"Ist._ Because the lacer

"4th. Because the d•

of real investment in this
of busiiiess, or of carry in

utmost repugnance again.

It contemplates the to' mation of a com.
pany for mining and d:aling lin:coal in a .
region already opened b Individaiitnter 7
prise, and traversed by rail roatielqind in
which thercoal trade is Ily estaigishd.
It confers privileges, a powers unusu.
•I, find dangerous to I . glee( interests of.
Schuylkill. The two thousand_acres of
land authorized to be held by the company,
may consist of ten different tracts, in Nor
wegian and Barry townships, which town
ships comprise a large proportion' of the
coal region of the county. From each
and every one &these tracts,the compa
ny may milket a rail road; and they may
bold lots or landings, (not exceeding three
acres each,) at every point desirable for
their business. 'privileges of this kind,
wielded by the combined influence or cor
porations, taikkeitlay a capital of *350,000,
are not only not desirable, but would form
a dangerowatiterference in the active aed
flourishing mil trade ofSchuylkill county.
Another objection to the bill is found in
the ambiguity of the third section. It is
opened to such a construction as would
permit the company to eagagil in the gen
eral busing* of making qui selling "cars,
boats, engines and machaery,;" though it
is pr.esutnad that the intention of the Leg.
islaktire was to confine them to the con..
struction of those articles exclusitely for.
their own use.
Forthise reasons,
I am constrained to
return de bill. I had hoped to escape
'the necessitinf further action of this kind
op the subject of coal companies. It was
Iffider this expectation, thin the Stafford
company. bill was r*ntly_permitted to lie.
come a law without the Executive signa
ture. So strong were Imy objections to
this kind, of incorporation, that I could not
sign that bill, though it was much less ob.
jectionnble than most Others of `t bcless,
but in ,deference to the Legislature, adopt
ed a middle course. I should be rejoiced
if a sence of duty permitted the like expe
dient now. But it does not. 1 therefore,
return the bill, believing that the 65gisloW
Lure in adopting the come designated , *
the Constitution, will duly appreciate my
motives.
It is proper for me to atate, that myob.
jections ,are not against; rail roads or
necessary to carry coal to market:,
It. Will, on the contrary, afford me pleasure
to co-operate in their fOrmation, ao-Ond

unanimously adopted:
Whereas, the preservation of the most - intered
tights and most cberi,hed' interests of the free
,
men of this Commonwealth, is opposed to the par.
ricidal menial of the National Government,
whose pernicious' experimentalizing policy has
interrupted the well.being and prosperity of toil,
lions of honest and mil ustrioge citizens; thereby
defeating the great end of all governments, which
is the protection, and not the oppression WI its
eitizens.or subjects Land whereas, thesarne policy
has prostrated the trade at industry, the com
merce and manufactures f our whole country,
and introduced a spurious, worthless shin- plea
trithurrency, einsisting,of millions of rags, 'in
stead of millions of gold and,,,silver; and Whereas,
weonceive it to be of the almost importance to
thrliccomplishment of this great object, that the
present worthy and enlightened Chief Magistrate
of this Commonwealth, Joseph Ritter, should be
upheld and supported in hie 'wise and patriotic
administration, and receive our: unanimous oaf
remise at the ensuing election.

inflaiiible opponent of the Sub Treasury System
