The engine and pump have been in operation upwards of one month, and work to the entire satisfaction of both makers and owners. The pump throws a 'constant volume of water by the use of the double working barrels, and is geared to work fro the second motion of ,the en gine, The same ent erprising firm is also erecting on Mi. Charles Lawton!. celebrated. Gate - Vein. an en. gine for pumping water and hoisting coal; the whole Machineribeing from the same pattents l as descri bed above.

The Colliciy _of Polts,dr, Berman's id -one of the most interresting of the hind in the region; and will well-repay the trouble, and we might !add, the fa tigues ofO visit. The. Colliery is better known ad the Guinea Hill or Black Mine, and iiione of the deepest in our Coal basin. ," The depth of the slope is four hundred feet, which, at an inelinatithi of 40 de grees, would give a perpendicular depth of two him drad and fifty-two feet into the very bowels of that earth. '; 7ho pitch of the vein, as soon as it looses the influence of the bill, is very regular, and the coal be comes,ol. a Purer land bettor quality , and is found in greeter muses between the sires. The Colliery' ia worked with two steanienginea; one of fifty horse power and the other of twenty. The former is, used in pumping thii water which accumulates in the mines, and the latter in hoisting the coal in cars to the mouth of the slope. ...The pump Msed in the Col liery is manufactured of ; cast iron, is twelve inches in diameter; and extends the entire depth of the slope—four hundred-feet., The pump is worked by two lOi inch working barrels, which connect with the main pump barrel by goose necks, and throw. a constant stream of water, the invention, we under stand; of Mr. Charles Pone. The column of water, brought up by the engine, at each lift Of the pump, is eqiial in weight to about eight and o half tons. At the Aepth of two hundred feet of this slope, a tunnel has b . eeri driven po yards snub to the Tun nel vein, and .70 yards 'north; to, the Lawton vein; both through solid rock, which enablesthe proprietors to work three reins with the present engines and fixtures. As, the visiter leavei the slope 'and finds himself, lantern in hind, groping his way through the gangway into the heart of the mine, be is half bewildered end startled, as the almost indistinct mas ses of coal, slate, dirt, ,&.c., fashion themselves into something bordering upon a dark, dusky and, even forbidding outline. It seems as if you had fallen up on a subterranean city; buried by 'some great convul sion of nature; and the illusitiri is still further heightened by observing worknien busily engaged apparently' in excavating the ruins: Or, if you are highly imaginative, and have read tbo Odyssey, you might scaly fancy the'feelings of Ulysseititiat aged like and much enduring man," when he paid a visit to the infernal shades, for the purpose of ascertaining the shortest and_ meat direct cut to his beloved Ithaca. Home however, does not= inform us whether , or not the shades carried , limps in their caps, ithout which the pick would be of little use to our miners. • A considerable outlay of money has already been made in this Colliery on what may be termed im provements. The steam - engines, pumps, sinking of slope; &c., to prepare thi3 mines • for working, have coat ;upwards of $ 18,000; and the cars, rebates, skrecis, Zce., including a rail-road about one (math of a mile in extent through the borough, say $ 15,- 000 more ; making in, all an • outlay of $ 33,000. Upwards of 16,000 tons of coal have been got curet the Black , Mino hi ono assort ; but at least 20,000 tons 'mild now be procured in ono Sear, from the present workings, if a demand for coal together with good 'Prices would justify the , lemploythent of a Suffi cient force for that purpose.

Men must justly and deservedly' esteemed for their high intellectual endowmentS, their virtue, and their patriothiut, have, in regard to it, entertained differ. ent and conflicting opinions. . Congresses - hate dif fered. Zhe approval of one President has been fol lowed by the disapproval of another. The people at different times have acquiesced indecisions both for and anima. - The country , has heen and still is deeply agitated by this unsettled.question. It • I It suffice for me to say. that, m y . own opinion has en uniformly proclaimed to be against the exerci of any such , power by this government. On all,s lia ble occasions, during a period of twenty- fi ve y are, the opinions thus entertained have been manse ed. ly expressed. I declared it in the • Legisleturof my own native State. - In the House of Repro enta :in lives of the United States it has been openly indi cated by me. In the Senate Chamber, in the pre sence and hearing of many. who are 91 this time members of that body, it has been affirmed and re affirmed, in speeches end reports there made, and by votes there,recorded. In popular assemblies I have unhesitatingly announced it : and the last pub. • lie declaration which 1 made,_and that, but a short time before the late Presidential election, 1 referred to my previously expressed opinions, as being those then entertained by mei; with a full knowledge of the opinions thus entertained, and -never concealed, I was elected by the people Vice President of the United States. By the occurrence of a contingency provided !or by the Constitution, and arising under an impressive dispensation of Providence,,l succee. ded to the :Presidential office. Before entering lapon the duties of that office, I look an oath that I would " preserve ' protect, and defend the Constitution of the. United States." En. tertaining the opinions alluded, to. and having taken this oath, the Senate and the country"will see that I could not give my sanction to a measure of the chaiacter described, with Out surrendering all claim to the respect of honorable men '— all confidence on the part of the' people—all self respect—all regard for moral and religious obligations—without an ob servance of which, no Government can be prosper. ous. and no People can be happy. It would be to commit a crime which I would not wilfully commit to gain any earthly eward, nod which would justly Subject me to the ri icule and scorn of all virtuous men. • I deem it entirely unnecess ary at this time to enter upon the reasons which have brought my mind to the convictions I 'eel and entertain or. this subject.. They have been over and over again.re— peated. If some of those ho have preceded me in this high office have entertained and avowed differ. ent opinions, I yield all confidence that their comic. lions were sincere. I claim only to have the same Measure meeted out to my elf. Without goigig fur: ther into the argunitinti , l.Will say that, in louking to the powers °film; Goveinment to collect, safely keep, and disburse the public revenue, and inci. dentally to regulate the commerce and exchanges, I have not been, able to satisfy myself that the es tablishment, by this Government, of a bank of dis count, in the ordinary acceptation of that term, was a necessary means, or one demanded by prop' icty, to execute those powers. What can the local discounts of the bank have to do with the collecting, safe-keeping and disburs ing of the revenue ? So fir as the mere discounting of paper is concerned, it is quite immaterial to this question whether the discount is obtained at a State Bank or a United States Bank. ,They are both equally local—both beginning and ending in a local accommodation. What influence have local die: counts, granted by any form of Bank, in the regu lating of the currency and the exchanges 1 Let the history of the late United States Bank aid us in answering this inquiry. For several years alter the esta > blisbment of that institution, it dealt almost exclusively in local dm. counts,*nnd during that period, the country was, for the most part, disappointed in the consequences anticipated &Om its in'corporation. A uniform ourrencsi was not provided, exchanges were not regulated, and little or nothing was added to the general circulation : and in 1820, its ernbar 7 assmcnts bad become so great that the directors pe titioned Congress to repeal that article of Op charter which made ils notes receivable' every where in payment of - public dues. It had, up to that period, dealt to but a very small extent in exchanges, either foreign.or domestic ; and as late as 1823, its oper ations in that line amounted to a little more than $ 7,000,000 - per annum; a very rapid augmentation soon after occurred, and in 1833 its dealings in exchanges amounted to upwards of $100,000,000, including the sales of its own drafts: and all these immense transactions were effeeted without, the employment of extraordinary means. • ' The currency of the country hicanie sound, and the negociations in the exchanges were carried on at the lowest possible rates. The circulation was increased to more than 922,000,000. and thelteres of the Bank were regarded is equal - to specie all over the country: thus showing almost conclusively. that it was the capacity to deal in exchanges, and not in local discounts. vhichfurnished these facihtira and advantages, It may be remarked, too, that notwithstanding the immense transactions of the Bank - in the. purchase of exchange, the losses eds. tamed were merely nominal: while, in the line of dtscOunts, the suspended debt was enormous, and proved most disastronslotheXinli and the country. _ ma... Its power oflocil disecitintsc k lunicifif et, proved to be a fruitful source of favoritisdr,and co ruption, alike dattrictive to the public morals k. the general weal. • The capital invested in banks of discount in the United. States, created by the States, at this time exceeds 8350;000,000: and lithe discounting oflocal paper could have produced any beneficial effects, ; the United States 'ought:to possess the soundest L currency in the world, but the reverse islamentably the fact. 'ls the measure now under consideration, of the objectionable character s -to which I have alluded It is clearly • so, unless by the 16th fundamental article of the I Ith iection it is made othersvisi.— That article is in the ,following Words : "Tito directors of the said corporation shall establish one competent office of discount and devil. f it in any State in which two thousand shares shall have,been subscribed, of may be field-, whenever, upon application •of the legislature of such State, Congreas.mayl by jaw require the same. •And the said eireeters may also establish one or mere com 7 petent offices of discount and deposit in- any Terri tory or District of the United States; nod in any, State, with the assent of such State: and wheri. established, the said office , or offices shall be only withdrawn or removed by the said directors prior to the eipiration of this charter, with the previoui assent. of Congress. , Provided, in respect to any State which shall not,i at the first session of the Legislature thereof held atter the passage of this act byresidulien or other usual legislative proceeding, unconditionally assent or dissent to the establishment of such office or offices within it. such assent of the said States shall be thereafler presumed: 'And providecfnei , ertheless; That whenever it shall become neceisary, and prop 4 er for carryiny into execution any of the powers granted by the .

The State may afterwards, protest against such unjust interference—but its authority is Tone. - Its assent is implied by Its failure or inability to act at its first session, and its voice can never after wards bo heard..

Far better leafy to the States boldly and frankly,. Congreste wills, and submission is demanded. It may be - laid that the directors may not estab. fish branches under such circumstances; but this is a question of power, and this bill invested them with full power to dolgo.
