YOUR PIIINCIPLEI-8110.• U TOVU PRIN. ctstsc—Tbe Locopeo patty have become so ex pert at pulling down every thing that is useful, without providing any good aubstitub a, that the people are blsginning seriously to inquire what are their Prim lee—what measures do they pro- , pose forltbe lief of the country. They.• as a party. (although there are some individual excep tion') are opposed to a Protective Tariff—opposed to a National Bank, and opposed to State Banks. What, we oak, are they going to substitute lathe; place of these . measures I The people aro anxious to know. There is no skulking on the part of the Democratic Whigs--_theit' . principles are boldly proclaimed. to the - People-:-A Protective Tariff-- a National Currency--a Distribution of the Pro. .ceeds of 'the Sales of the Public Lends among the States—lnternal Improvements—Universal E u• cation—a strict accountability of all public n' errs to the people, and a modification of Mean • King ' ly feature in our constitiop, the - Veto power. The :Locofocos, as e s party, oppose all these , measme"--but mere opposition will not answer. • The people want to know, and will know, what measures ere to be substituted in their place, be fore they will unite in opposition—they are tired of experiments—they ere tired of supporting one thing today and opposing it the next, at the mere bid or caprice of same aspiring detrp4ogue--tind nothing abort of a public exposition of the princi ples which, are to be their guide will satisfy them. If the reje cted European Sub-Treasury System , lap be revived is a substitute for a Protective Tariff and a National Bank, why not proclaim it . boldly to the public, and let the people judge be tween the measures of the two parties, so that they can vote accordingly. Da. Moariam—The Rev. Dr. Moriarty bye been for the past week a vi.itor to ourrborough, sod every evening has been lemming bi crowded aildtences. The Des reputation for eloquence is well enough known, without the neceisnj of mak.' ing any:ientarke on hits peculiar style.'

As was announced, be preached a Charity sermon lest Sabbath morning, for the purpose of whiting Mille building of the, Orphan Asaylum in the tippet itart of Mabeniango street, the pro ceeds of which amounted to ittivrards of 400 dol lars', which is a large sum considering the strand? the 'times. Since then he it's been lecturing on dtfrorent points of doctrine, .• the Infallibility if the' Church," " Tramu bstantialion," &r., &c. The Dr'e'eloquence is of a high and fervid order, and ranks him among the most distinguished gill,- gy of the Roman Catholic Church. The Ledger writhes under oar remarks of last week. They `have already felt the effects of an indignant and outraged community—end mark our, predictioti—their downfall will he as tepid se their uprising. The fact is, that there are very few persons in this community who tall ,now permit that piper to be read in their families.

Shannon's plurality over Corwin 3026: King's vote 4887; majority'sgainst Shan non 185 i, which will be increased by the votes yet to come in. So the Locofocns get the State, but . by a minority of votes. The returns Show also dot they' carry the Legisl l !iture by minority 'vote. The full. vote of the State is short of that of 1849 about 18,000, and as the Locofocos poll ed no more votes than they did 1890, when it is known that their whole forde was out, the elee tion decides nothing,- but that the Democratic Whig vote was not fully pulled. Whether it can be in 1844 remains yet to he seen ; but if it is, as it. bi believed it will, lihriry Clay gains the State by a large majority: NEW Yo RE ELECTION. The eteetion in New York will take place on T estlay next, for Gorr. nor and members of Cangrese, Ate. The whip, hive a great deal the contend with—they hive not only to war against 'Locnforoism—but the oCerporars Guard!' also, shicb, though weak in numbers, is backed by the rower and patninage the General Governenent. And besides, in sev. , era of the distriLts, the whip are not as united as they might be, while in others they do nut appear to be sufficie.itly aroused to induce them to go to die polls. We have no doulli but Chet there is a clear maiirity of 10,000 .Whig votes in the State. it they could be polled,—but for the reasons given above, we must confess that we are fearful of the result. . What's the matter in the Locofoco coop? Has CA. Johnson abarOoned Porter, or Porter Johnson? ft was well known that Porter was to run for Vice President on the i ticket with Colonel Johnson for President, s few weeks ago—hut we learn from Harrisburg that the Porterites are now busily engaged in franking Cass Handbills, to e s. ery section of the State, for the purp-ise of bring ing him out as e i s t indidate for tho Presidency.— There is evidently trouble in the camp—and wa would advise the Johnson and Porter , men in this ginner, to he careful how they commit them selves. They may receive indent to wheel about end take the _back trark. We give thus advice gratis, for thigood of the party. POPULAR LacTunss.—The first Lecture to s course on Natural Philosophy, and Chemistry by Reuben% Peale, will take place in his Lecture Room at the Town Hall, on Monday evening the 14th instant, at .7 o'clock. , His Philosophical apparatus is very cosily and extensive, ,so that these lectures will be full of experiments in the various departments of science They will take place every Monday evening at 7 o'olock for three months, at the very low price of 3 dollars fur a Family—s 2 for a Gentleman and Lady—sl a single person, and 12} cents for a single leeture..

PLACING OBSTRIICIIOIIB ON RAIL ROADIA.-- W 0 would direct the attention of our Legislature to the necessity of passing a special law, at the ensuing session, inflicting heavy penalties on any penlon of persona who may be found guilty of ob structing the passage an Railroads, by the born. ing of Bridges, or placing obstructions on the road, by which means the Cars are thrown o 6 and the lives of our citizen! endangered. In other States special laws have been passed for the pur pose of severely punishing all who may be found guilty; and in Massachusetts, when' the lives of her citizens are endangered by such villainous acts, we believe the punishment is death. The Ledger asserts that our circelation.has creased in this Borough since the introduction of that paper. The reverse is the fact. The cheap ness of the Penny Paper, induced a number of in dividuals to take the Ledger who were not in the habit of reading papers. They however soon be came disgusted withsthe general character of that paper. andN particularly the anti-American Free Trade doctrines.adsocated in its columns, ceased taking it any longer, and have, since:subscribed to the Journal. Our circultion is now larger in this Borough than it was e year ago. Me much for the veracity of the Ledge statements. • Locosocetsx.—The course the Locofoeo par, ty have pursued in Ohio, has ant left the people sufficient money, it is said. to pay their (ans.-1 The Isles ainriunt to $l,BOO 000—snd the circu lation of the Banks in the State $1,300,000 Other Banks, 200,000 B - pecie, 200.000 $ 1.700,000 Ono hundred thogaand dollars leu than is requi red to pay the eases assessed in the State.

D. 1842, respectfully report the following: That in the discharge of Their duty as the Grand Inquest of the county, they regret to find so many trivial offences brought before the Court, when they believe that the ends of Justice would be as equally subserved if the Magistrates would use a little' molb+ discretion, (and show less dis position to augment fees for their own benefit,l end not trouble the Court with every tr.fiing ac tion that ireirought before theta. These remarks the Jury do not intend to apply to all of the Justices of the county, for they are aware that there are many, "rely many, honorable acceptions to the,con trary. The Jar, take great pleasure in expressing their satisfaction at the manner in which they found the Jail—every part of it is clean and com fortable, and the prisoners all acknowledge the kiid treatment theyreceive at the hands of the Sheriff. This is just and proper, foe whilst the publiesafety requires that strict attention and care should be ,tatken of the prisoners, it is grate ful and honorable to our feelings I ,as chrisdans, and men, when that can be done in a human and kind manner. The Jury-also visited the County Poor House, and they would be doing violence to their feelings if they did nut express in terms of high commen dation, the able manner in which that institution is managed—every part of the buildlg presents an air of neatness and comfort, that-we think we should not perform our duty without'saying, that the county is well served by its active and atten tive manager; the Paupers are as happy as their sit ualion' will allow—well Fed, clew in their per sona; and their beds and bedding excellent and abundant. The Jury find the building in some parts very much out of repair: the back steps are in a very dangerous anddilaptdated state, and requires immediate attention—the Jury would re con.mend eith4 cast iron or stone steps to be'put up as a matter of economy, they being very much exposed to the action of the weather; the top courses of the chimnies are lose and should be secured, and also some little plastering both with in and without the buddigg. The Jury recom mend to the Directors to limnt the main building outside this fall, and to enclose one acre so' as to take in the present burial ground, which now lies open to the inroad of cattle whenever turned intiP the fief. The ;nip also visited the building containing the 'county officers, and find it in good order, and •,the records of the county are represented to be secure and in a good state of preservation. The jury cannot close their Report without noticing the new and substantial Stone building now 'nearly completed, designed as an Hospital for the . Insane Poor. It is a commodious build ing, with aeperate cells, and many other apart ments designed for their comfort, and when fin ished; (which will be in.

In the one cuo,•honestf., eelf-respee an .. _ , open and manly demeanour; plainness of speech, and a steady adherence ,to prinetples, constitute the elements of the public man's character.

He' sees hike- strong 'are the bonds of Party` association'; he knows bow self ish are the motives of most party leaders ; he re- ganls politics as a game at which the most skil ful player is the most likely to 'win. This view tiles coinidete possession of his mind, and in`itc cordance with it . he 'regulates his pints and directs his course. The first idea which he associates' with a political question is not how far the pro- posed measure - may benefit the country, but how tar may it be available for political purposes gen erally, and for' his own advancement especially. This man will not hesitate to deceive the peoplei he calculates on'the strength of party connections; he has confidrnce in his poset of so representing the ttAng as to throw all tho blame of his failure !Ron Ns political opponents: His, own estima tion of the people is very law ; he knciwe how of ten they have been duped by his means he has no respect for them, no regard for their interests; he views them as convenient instruments; under he machinery of party organization, to be used. for Its own elevation. If he could do so with safety he would kick the ladder by which he had climbed to power. Yet es cilia people have the dtsp. sal of political preferment he flatt ers them to their heart's content. He extols their intelligence at the very moment when ho is counting on their ignorance to make his nrinstious fictions gO &own. Their virtue and patriotism are the themes of his eloquence, while he appeals at every turn to pre.: j dices and feelings,, to petty jealousies of one clavagtn:nst another, which no man having res pect fo?Ie peopler e wortyl ever attribute to 'them —and whirl' no good man, having regsrd for so cial harmony the well being of his country, would ever attempz , to t excite. The public man himself while thus plarng the demsvgue may be outraging his own-intidual associations and habits, which may be exclusiveand aristocratical. Yet he belongs to the party, t4nl all is fair in pol itics. Nay, he thinks it necessriry to go farther in his denunciations, to rake lourrhis profes sions of democracy, that he may show a zeal which might otherwise be suspected; and havirigloros. tituted his own selfrespect, in the triitorous \ be- lief that he is thereby bringing hiniself to the ley. el of those whose favour he courts, he has few restraining scruples left einceming truth or hon or; he hopes to gam the confidence of the people by rendering himself unworthy of all confidence. The high minded public man trusts to his own principles, and leaves them to speak for him. He advocates measuies of great public utility, and believes that the public interests involved in them will finally secure their adoption. If he fails, he thittkeinore of the injury that the failure may bring upon the country than the political injury that may befall himself ; fur he knows that ho has done his duty, and of that conviction nothing can over deprive him. A inn of this sort is a statesman, and the best friend to constitutional liberty. The other is a demagogue—the worst foe of freedom. But let us leave fancy sketches. If there he personages in political life to whom either deltnyd cation is applicable, let those make the application , , _ . who think they discover its fitness. We design -no individual sketches—although it is true that the idea of the contrast, which we hive made general, was brought to mind - by seeing two op posite predictions made in 1835, by two distin guished public men. For aught we know they were both male honestly ; one, however, was founded on a principle which could not fail ; the other, upon 'a delusion which had been used to deceive, and too successfully, a large mass of the people. In 1835, when the country was apparently in a state of extraordinary Prosperity,-HENRT CLA y used the f Mow ng language in a public speech : "There being no longer tiny sen'inel at the head ofour banking e•tablishmenta to worn them by its information and operatiOns ofapproaching danger, the local institutions, already multiplied to an Opining extent, and almost daily (DOW plying-in seasons of prosperity. well make free and unrestrained emission.
