REPEAL
REPEAL is likely to become the Popular cry:—
In Philadelphia, the Manufacturing .towns in its
.Boston, New York, everywhere, even
in Reading the popular indignation assumes the
moat tangible form. In the tidier place an unfor
tunate Locafoco, taking it for grantid that a call
for-a meeting of his party, was made for the pur
pose of approving of ihe Tariff of 1816, at
tempted to vindicate the bill so misnamed. No
sooner, however, had he opened. his, mouth'than
the audience constituted itself aCourtof oyer and
terminer; awl by arguments a posteriori, procee
ded to vindicate the majesty of the people. The,
discom6ttal orator took to his heels, followed by
the crowd, and Was. pursued to his own ofike,
which did not shelter tiro, as he was foree4 from
that to take another refuge, Now we do act ap
prove of this sort of thing, 4ut occurring as it did
in old Berks, ready at all times, to give any de,it
ed mnjority, it shows there are lettga,s of misrule'
7Which no people will put up with. To _show
'how wrong the obnoxious law have hut to re

influence of the Nexican war, there scented to be

CONGRESS.
Since ogr last the Harbor Bill has passed and
been vetoed by the President producing thureat
'est dismay in the party of the admtnistration, its i
passage having been.made a sine qua non with
the western men. No sooner was the news of the
veto bruited about than Mr. Thompson of Erie, i
took'oecasibn to 'ask Mr. McClellan of Alichigruld
in the House, if it was not true that fir, Polkbad
expressed himself in favor of this bill. Mr. MAL
replied yes, but under the circumstances, with a
view to the expenses of die governmint etc. the
outlay
i of money called for by that Bill, was judged
to be inexpedient. It is worth mentioning that
Mr. Pollee message ticcompanying the veto li4tl I
it on conaitutional grounds principally. The dis- t
may created by this measure can scarcely be con
ceived of and is evidence, coat at only Pennsyl
vania has bees decoyed into support of the pow-,I
ems that-he, hut that the west too has been tlecei
vet] by pibmises which have not been fulfilled,-
54,40 and the Harbor bill were the great ques
tions upon which the elections of the west turned.
The Sub-streatmry Bill has passed hut with amend
ments prohibiting, the • i6Aue of any notes of a
lower denomination than $5O. By this the ad
ministration is disappointed, having, hilly depended
on the . passage of the bill the Departtnent had caused
a vast nuinber of votes of the lower denomin
ation's; to,be engraved for the purpose of distribu
lion thMeigh the west and south, for the army, all
of which of course will be useless. On the odor,-
non of this amendment, Mr.. Walker is reported
to have charged those who voted for the .amend
went, with laving ruined the party.
. -
The r past week has of course been a busy one:
and passed by Abe Senate in executive sessioa.
and by the HPuse in disposing of,the private,
and jub busiriess of the members. The Naval
and Diplomatic appropriation bills, have been pas
sed, but on the army appropriation, the House and
Senate could not agree, the latter adhering to
their amenaMents. •
The amendments to the land graduation bill
have,been discussed in the house, but nothing - def
finite has-been adopted at the last dates.•' The hill
admitting Wisconsin into the Union, passed the
senate, on Wednesday last. Much small husi.;
aces, as we have said, has been done during the
past week.
Congress on Monday nett, will adjourn, after
session of very unusual length—during which
great changes have taken place. It found the
country with a full-treasury, leaves it with an_
empty one ; found it at peace, leaves it at war ;
found it with a tariff; leaves it without one. We
rather think the working men of the nation, would
be glad had it never have met.
Oen COILTN . TY.—We aro pleased to sit that
thro!ignout. our county there seems a general feel
ing among those who have previously acted with
the administration . to unite with the Whigs in re
storing protection to American industry. -So great
is thisleeling, that this and other 'districts at the
coming election will tell a widely . different tale
from the last one. At the St. Clair furnace stop
ped since the tariff's repeal a black flag is waxing
with tho words , Dallas did it,' and similar feelings
I l
a e evinced elsewhere.: It is said that - the speech
o Mr. Sevier, Senator, from Arkansas, in which
he said,that the dissatisfaction, cr,pressed in Pe
at the Destruction of protection, was a- joke,'as
this state would, in spite Of , its clamor soon be
kicked into the tracesovas - caused by an intima
tion to that effect from Mr. Dallas. These tWo
worthies will, as wo have said, find themselves
iiiistaken and that Pennsylvania cannot be so
easily pacified. ' . .

A - few, a very few persons are disposed •to CCn.i .
sure die. course pursued by this gentleman pendl
lug' the Presidential election of :44, in 'advocating
the election of President Polk and the Taritfof
'42. If a single doubt of the integrity and singer{
ity of Mr. Hughes on the Tariff question St that
were entertained. 'it must be entirely dtasipaf
ted now by the manly and independent manner
with which he promptly repaired to Washington
and advocated and defended the doctrines lac pro-
mulgated in '44. Mr. Hughes has fully exonerd !
ted himself from any charge of intcntionid deceit
or duplicity on the Tariff question;' and stand's
fully acquitted in the mind, of every intelligerlt
inau in the region. .
The above is. from the last Emporium. Is is
not our intention to say any thing periunally a

at the last Presidenttnl election." We have hand

remove a wrong impression that the above article

that Mr. Hughes did ri'c'd repair to Washington

,COREDIpPONEIENCE WITH REGARD
TO THE' TARIFF. .,
Ina correspondence published hither Washing
ton Nationkl Intelligencer, is a letter to the Hon.
Daniel Webster stating that a reduction - of 25 per
cent. on the.dutiea levied on importations, by the
Tariff of l t '8•12, the greater portion of the branches
of industry, susta'ned in this country can yet live
and that the manuracterers would bail the passage
of a law Making thin reduction With gratification.
At this !elites we are muchlurpriaed, because it is
evident the firs: instance, no such iiropositiuti
could pasti the house, even if gotten thrimAh the
Senate, aild now that the new bill 'has been passed
and no such:proposition made, we can conceive of,
no re,tison for the publication of the correspon
dence:- Among the .names subscribed to this let
we find that of !qr. Thomas AlcCanles as rep.
resenting' the Coal; interests of Schuylkill county,

similar proposition was made to them before the
passage of McKay's,bill positively refused to sign'
any petitioa or representlation to the Senate, to
the same effect as the statements in the letter re
ferred tO, maintaining that all the present protec
tion waS,sequired to make their business at the
same tine profitable to them, find to keep up the
wages Of the operatives. That. they are . correct,
the foltowing statement taken from the Books of
the ,Bo'ston Custom House, is satisfactory show
' ing in Fpite of the:protection of $1,75, in 1845

tlaUce with the provisions of existing laws; and if
the appraised value thereof shall exceed by ten per

Read the Section carefully end if this is not-the
construction of the section; we do not understand
the meaning of the English languages We look
upon this section as one of the most iniquitous in
the Bill and proves its foreign origin—and the
ut

Will they be deceivedl s
Mr. Webster, whom we presume is pretty good
authority w iilizregard to the construction and mean
ingof Jaws, on Monday Jaston the Gaited States
Senate, said
Ole thought it his dirty to call the attention
of the eriate to a statement in the Union of
relative to .the new Ting' bill, in
which the editor says 'that the value of the
goods taxed is to be settled,• not by the importer's
invoice, but by competent and skilful appraise's.
They are to appraise the goods at their actual mar ,•
ket value in our portal"., , ,jn New York or Phila
delphia, not at Coulon or at Manchester.' A
more enormous error had never been committed.
Eiactly the opposite of what was stated was true.
The new law is that ti.e goods are to be appraised
at their true Market valuerin the principal markets
.of the country whence the importation shall have
been Made, or in which the goods shall have been
originally manufactured or produced, as the cage
may be. The editor should be more careful in

Another quarry Df coal - mine, called the 'New
Mine; lies on the east of the ‘.old Mine' and
neater Co the Sharp Mountain. Tbis is of much
smaller area than the Lola Mine.'
The Sharp Mountain, which in its course from
Tamaqua to a short distance east of the 'New
Mine' on the Summit Hill, a distance of five miles
is very regular, at' this place it is broken, and
turns towards the north. At about 2600 feet
northward from Its broken end, its prolongation is
again continued eastward, until it meets and joins

L shell not venture in this place to give an opin

course of the mountain; on the coal strata, for the
reason that I think I may be able to explain more
clearly toad satisfactorily, this phenomenon, when
I give the description of the coal basin, as it ap
pears at Tamaqua, where it is cut through by- the
stream of the Little Schuylkill, at a right angle to
the range of the stratification, and affords the only
perfect section in the Coal Region.

The Room Run coal mines are situated:in the
. gap of Locust Mountain, made by Room Run, h
branch of Nesquchon ng. They are about 5 miles
wegward from the Lehigh, and the coal is trans•
potted upon a giavity ; rail road to the Lehigh
Navigation, a short di,tance above Mauch Chtink.
Ih passing through the gap and entering the coal
basin, the following coal veins are developed. Ist
coal vein, 6 feet thick. Two drifts or gangways
have .hero driven in this rein westward. •
. 2d vein of 3.i feet in thickness, cut in the tuts =
net now being driven.'
3d coal vein 28 feet in thickness. Three drifts
have been driven in this vein westward and ono
eastward.

9th coal vein 'Barber,' 1-2 feet thickvisctrked
eastward.
10th coal vein 5 feet thick.
11th coal vein 12 feet thick, worked eastward. .
All the above veins dip south ; the last two, are
supposed to form a small basin, and -in a short
distance rise to the surface 'frisking a north dip.—
No. 9, or 'Barber, lies underneath the above also
forming a north and south dip. No: 7 and '8 ba

r,O feet. vein saddles over, and then dips
south, and is supposed to rise again, forming a
north dip in Mount Pisgah. The coal veins which
overlie and underlie the 50 feet vein, make the
same curves (excepting that the continuity, or
saddle of the overlaying veins is broken,) and rise.
to the surface on Mount Pisgah. thus forming two
basins or synclinal axis and onesaddle or anticlinal
axis. The coal basin here is about iBOO feet wile.
The Tamaqua mine consists of the workings in
one of the coal veins of the Sharp Mountain.—
This vein has been '.worked into, eastward from
the gap a congiderable di-tance ; it produces
coal of fine guality,chnd ie free from any serious
fault. Besides this, there are a number of other
coil veinain the Sharp , Mountain range, which
this part of the Lehigh estate command. .These
will be enumerated and treated -*mot., in the des:
cription of the Little Schuylkill Comp tny's estate,
at Tamaqua.
The Lehigh Coal and Istavigation Company's
estate, .embraces about 13 miles 'of' the Sharp
Mountain range of coal veins. Five miles of
which the western part ia most valuable for mining.
It likewise embraces abiut 12 miles of. the Locust
Mountain range, 8 of which are very valuable for
mining. • The crests of these mountains are on an
average about 500 feet above the level of the val
leys. The Company has on their coal estate from
35 to 40 miles of rail roads in operation With
steam engines attached to the inclined planes, coal
breakers, &c
The Lehigh COmpany is making extensive prep
arations, to open and work other parts of its es
tate. Rail roads and inclined planes, hove been
surveyed, and are .under construction, and seven
or eight different tunnels to the coal veins have
been laid out and 'commenced.. One ef consider
