Our late most excellent Treasurer, Mr. Henry Shoemaker, acted upon this principle, and ordered the list to he pub lished in the Miners' ;,journal, which, it is well known, circulatei abroad among all these interes ted as landholders in this county.

D/STIIIIIIITION OF CABiI—MEITISO OP 21!fig Coii OrsasToas.—lt is unneceasary for us to . state that during the lint year general complaints have rung throughout the Coal Region, 'against 'the manner in which tits cars have been diatribu- i ted among the different operators.. Charges of favtiritisrn were publicly - and frequently made, and by many believed to be true. Withoert expressing an opinion with regard to the truth of these char gos, we. incline to the opinion that a large portion of the grievances complained of, ought to bd attri buted to the inability, of the Company to furniAt the number of Care required by the different °per atom. To remedy this evil - in future, the Com pany made contracts for 1500 1 new five ton Iron Cars, and 31 new' Locomotives, equal - to 60 per cent. increase On the old stock, which give to the Company the capacity of transporting to mar ket dtring the .Present year fri11:n.4200,000 to 1,30,600 tons of Coal. This,:in addition to the supply that will be sent by C4ali after conaple-' Lion, it is supposed wilt be equal to the quan tity the market will require from Schuylkill county the prisent year. The scarcity of last year, and the necessary sus pension of. Canal Lasigation • during the Freer nt spring. and part of summer, has caused. a keen competition for Cars for tbie year's business ; and many, no doubt, acting upon the policy of "bid ding, high," to secure a — sufficient number, even . after their applications had undergone consid erable cUrtailment; m the Company had 'receiied applications for cars sufficient to tranSpoilifso; malibus five hundred thuusaailtons during Ike year. Finding it impoiiible to make an equitable distribution among all-from the)oa . sisof. these ap plications, the President deterinined to convene a meeting of the operators, end lay the whole bu siness before them, with a request that they would devise'r! mode of distributiott aMong,the'mselves, which, if •fair and equitable, tbeCompanyrould 'conform thereto. .

He held to the 'principlee iii Washin;tun, that•they could admit of no instructions to the Sen -. late from popular meetings, assertiblies.selkousti- I .tuted, organized by factionists, and controled_ by demagogues..

If he Were not; he Would be unwilling to occupy that place any longer.' But as he was not•o ,rnember of any such committee no senator had any right to interrogate him.' While M.

Mr. Allen did not demand an answer of the sen 7 tor ris a personal right, but as a public light Ho has assumed hereto speak fori the president, to4ive the President's construction to his : language.

It is as true as the Holy Book. _ Mr. Hannegan then read several passages from Mr : . Polk, and among the rest, from a letter of his, dated April 23d, 1844, to a committee of the citi zens of Cincirmatioo prove that - he was,for the whole Of GregiM. Charged Mr. H. with attacking Senators here, and of inaking a volunteer defence -against attacks never made. If the PreAidentihould surrender the banner which wasput into his hands by the Baltimore . convention, he would prove, hint self recreant to his professions , ' recreant itu the party, and recreant to the country. But ',he de nied fur the President, the intentions , which the ?Senator attributed to him. - The Senator had said 'he (the President) had stuck in,l parenthetically, what would tickle the ears of the people, but that it meant nothing: ilf this' were true, it must be brought to the ligkyand if net true,. what bad net the Senator to anitver for. If iti i were title the President would be doomed to an infamy so pro found, a damnation so deep, that I tlie trumpet call of the resurrection could never reach him.; Mr. Mangum called to order. 1, . Mr. Hannegan said he meant to say nothing disrespectful td the Senate, and II:he were about to do so, he thankeZ -- thi — Si enator for checking biro. The, Senator hid said thatithls subject, was to be agitated indie country, .to put little men into great offices. He had seen little en in great of :Gees before, but he would soy; that he would rath er be a little man in a large office then the supple tool of power, . hanging around the back stairs, picking up what he could gather, and bringing it in tere..and dealing it out jas offitial, and by au thority. - - • : He had heard about free , trade, and the settling' 'this questiOn by a reduction of the duties; but as much as he desired free 'trade, it would never be bought brhim with any portion of his' country.— , Our farmers are to be benefitted, we are ,told, by free trade; but there were, countries upon the Bal tic and Black Sea that could raise wheaVand pour it into the ports of 'Great, Britain, at .much less prices'than our western farmers could send it to si THE MINERS' JOURNAL England. Such free tra d e would benefit the west but little. • .. In conclusion, Mr. H. again spoke of the extra- eidiaary speech of the Senator from North (Jain- line. He had, he said, uttered false words With 1 the tongue of* serpent._ ' It may well be supposed,' that all this heated -language, these taunts and thrusts, could not be ;uttered - without creating much sensation in the `Senate.-. It was an encounter between members of the same political family—but it was with keen Weapons, wielded by . strong arms, end the cuts and thrusts were no child's play. Wounds were made, wounds that will bleed, and fester, and will not heal; the war was to the knife, and the knife to the hilt. ..._ But what a position Mr. folk stands in! If he I does not stand tsn 40, says Mt. Haywood, I will. turn my back upon him—he will be guilty of mor al treason. If he dues not stand up to 54 40, says Mi. Hannegan, he Will he doomed'to an lawn/ :So Fatima, 'a damnation so deep; that the trum , , pet 041 of the resurrection wilt never reachhim! What,an attitudirto stand in! So-much for dou ble dealing." The day after the Speech was delikefe.

On Monday, Colquitt called theatten.. tion of, the Senate to the article, and handled the the author very severely. He stated, "that he had consulted no one except Mr. drittenden—,no mem ber Ofeither House—and had had no meeiing7foi tnal'or informal, relative •tri his resolutionsand so far from his.having concocted' his resolutions et the British Minister's table, eel Mated in the - . article re ferred to, hothd•not even know him and had .never dined•in his company anywhere. ,pronounced the whole article abase tissue of false hoods, and 'gave the writer.

The coiresporident of the Commercial Advertiser, cunfims:this itnpiession• lie says "it was asserted, this morning ly Mr. Hannegan, in conversation, that' the President had determined to throw himself into the` hinds of the anti .orekon party.". • • The• correspondeot of the'\oith,'Amesicaa CZ "It is now apparent to the West, that a Tre.4 will be formed upon the 49th degiee, and Mr. 11.mte,pan and other, (tare paldiely declared ;Oh in the last fis day's;-that the prostration of the Tariff policy, is to form a leading, 'principle in the adjualment."...

I ignored fifteen. They have also made a care-1 ful examination of the' Public Buildings and offices, and while they approie. of the avenge merits and improveinents in aria around thetoult. House, yet they most earnestly, present to the con sideration of the County Commissioners the total insufficiency of the Gaol - for the confinement of Prisoners. It is not sufficiently well _secured to detain ihem, nor 'large enough to accommodate them. •' There are but four small -rooms, and in them there ale thirty or thirty-five iiersons--hlack and vihiteareirequently crowded tilgtther. 'lt - is impossible for the Sheriff to' maintain• that order and cleanliness among them, which arc so .iieses sary ter Xliesorrect prison discipline; In justice .to that officer, we must say that we -found every thing in as good order and condition as they could be wider • the circumstances. The. ° Orand ,Jury . would most respectfully suggest to your honors to direct the Commissioners to provide: forthwith, a separate apartment for the better accammedetion of the sick in the County gaol. The Grand.Jdry in common with.a - number of their fellOw citizens, think that greatexpense might be saved to the . tax payers of the' County, by the establishment:of a Mayar's or Criminal Court in the- i3or:ough of Pottsville. It is Well known that 'a - great:Majority, of criminal cases. and Quarter Sessions busieeir originates in what is called the Coal Region, and that the expense to the public occasioned by bringing witnesses, yarties and Jurors fromthat part of the Cciuniyis corsidera 7 . ble—these ca r ies are generally of small moment, and should never ; he sent to this Court. but when they are continued from Court to Court and arc tried to the exclusion of more important busi ness, and at the expense of the public.}ye tuo.:that for want of such a Court, crime goeS un punished in many instances, the delay _occasioned in waiting for the regular Court offers facilities for ' escape and settlement--those who can pay, escape, th - o - se who are too poor to pay arc handed over to justice—and the public purse. Those cases should ' be speedily tried, and at as little expense as possi ble. We do not make these suggestions,- think-! ing this Court has authority to establish such a; tribunal as we speak of; hut merely to bring thel matter to the notice of the publiC. We would respectfully call the - attention of the! Court to the fact that there are, we believe, a great! many disorderly houses and tippling -houses inl this County. We 'hope a strict examination of constables will he made in-order to bring offenders. -to justice. We have quite- enough licensed hoe . see in the County, and unless a stop is put to the' practice of selling spirituous liquors at every beer . shop and shantee along our highways, there will be no end to drunkenness and crime among the people, and we think that this evil yractice, in vio- 1 , lotion .of. law, and to the destruction of public morals, should be visited with that severity which it 'deserves. REPORT OF THE. GRANDJURY DANIEL LARER, Foreman orwigsburg, March 6, 1846. • THE COST OF 124TEMPER/X,E.—We have al; ready shown that three-fourths of the crime and' taxes. and one half of the county expenses of the counties-of Cortland and Niagara for The last year —and that year is but the history of ' all other years—were caused by turn drinking. 'Oswego county tells the same story. The tounty tax' for the year ending October 1845, is 511,935.60. Of this amount the criminal tax is $11,025 52. Of 124 persons committed to the jail of the coun ty within the year, seventy-six—three quarters of the whole number—were brought to crime direct lysby intemperance. Thus the amount of money drawn from the pockets of the tax payers of that county—the great majority of wnomare doubtless temperate and temperance} men, opposed to ium drinking=amounted in one year to the sum of 16,764 02—more than one-half of the entire criminal tax of the county.

There are several boys in Our community prone to disobedience, truant-playing, little pilfering, and other wicked habits; and I regret to say (thus publicly too) that one of mine is , among the number. , -' Some of our citizens give credence to the tales of these wayward children, forgetting that all cut prits can a good story , ;' and acting from first impulses, pity, harbor, and relieve them— thereby adding the curse of vagrancy to their other infirmities. If such persons knew how much an:-: iety this encouragement cost the afflicted parent, a moment's thought would prompt the action of a true philanthropist, and every good citizen would embrace the first opportunity to return the erring d,uy to his parental home. Precept, admonition and correction, have all befirr,used at proper times and with pure inten tions; but as yet without' permanent effect. I have,administered correction with sorrow of heart, for ii;:dince and promise of reward avail nothing. Frequent search' until midnight, sleepless nights 'and tortuting drcams, and the'heart's full aspera j Lion fur the returning prodigal's spirit, aro the at••• fictions and only consolation of a complaining I father. - .1. - M.

There is serious cause of complaint in this estimate of freight, as no in-1 dividual could nor would invest money. in Boats under such rates; therefore men of cnterprize and • character; would be driven out of this, their usual employment, and this prospect in view, they care, hut little whether the Canal or Rail Road monop- olizes the carrying trade. The object of the writer of this article, is to harmonize these conflicting views, and offer (un-. asked it is true) a plan for - the mutual interest of the Company and theißoatmen—which,i while it ' does not prevent,' the, Company from regulating the reig;ht,`: aliitays '.secures to, the boatman and, ?Wrier ordie boat, a fair proportion of the charges made; andieneduragcSthe building of the larger, Cliiss of boats.':?..
