The result of the recent elections held in the

people to any great extent.
Tn No•th Carolina, the Whigs have re-elected
Governor Graham bye considerable increased ms=
jnrity, and .also both branches of the Legislature,

is important as the election' of two U.S. Senators
devolves upon the Legislature elect. One in
place of Mr. - Mangum whose term expires, and
another to' supply the vaeaney caused by the !e r r .

DECEPTION OF THE, POLKITES
- We took occasion last week, to refer to a lie
whickotiginating in.the Union of Washington,
_was c;i4eifinto the Ernporicariof last week in this
borough, and doubtless will find its way to the col-
mops of ''every Locofoco sheet in tho country'
which of coarse nip closed to a contradictino,--.
The object was paip Aly to deceive the people, and
an Mornay last,. this though having previously been
twice refuted, was repeated in the Pennsylvanian,
This is an old trick of the party, and can only be
refuted, by every man's taking. the trouble to find
out the truth for himself, and by taking it for
granted whenever a Locofoco leader, who deceived
them before, is industriously circulating any ru
mor„that he is attempting to deceive his listeners
a second time, by some other .humbug.. here is
one which we take from the Emporium, address-
to the farmers
• A<<l'uar WE KNOW.—We know two lierson, , ,
says the Easton Argus, wha live aside of each
other. a 'farmer and a manufacturer—the farm-r
work; all day under a broiling sun, with the titer
riroareter at 97, and clears 3 per cent. on his capi
tal. The manufacturer don't'tvork at all. drinks
his ehampaigne, smokes the best segars. and clears
40 per ceut. Three cheers for the tariff of '42."
This is a double lie, becaus'e fan c iers generally,
make much more than 3 per cent. and manufar
tureri rarely make 40 percent,.and all the world
knows the majority of manufacturers is liable to
as severe toil and as much care as the tirrners are.
Eesidee manufacturing is not , a monopoly and if
it pays So well, the turners can. Or into the 1;1.44.:
ness of manufacturing whenever they find it prof.
itable to do so Another thing, every new manu
factory is a new' niirket, and if a portion of the
farmers wool?! go into manufacturing the value of .
agricultural products would be propori:mately en;
hanced. Argument on this matter is futile, this
is humbug No. 2.
The most: shallow device, however, we Lwr
seen, is the following, put forth by the N. Y. F.-
roer, which calls on the people to re.,
j• ice for the saving of 8 cents a year on salt, while
their labor is by the same bill, reduced $l5O per
is strewing sal[, toad of the
kind,esl )on on birds tails, with a vengeance: , A
"We say to the poor men of the land, rejoice ; dur
ing the next fee years. you will be taxed only two
cents on tibushei of the hest sa4,lllStead of ten cents
iv hish you now pay.' Your tax on will be reduc
ed iti like proportion, and the tt-eces of your sheep v. ill
not he driven out of market by fine limit woul enter
ed at the lowest duty." . ' - •
Oil the; subject the HARTFOtT COtiltANT
MIEI
Is salt so largd an item in the expenses 'of a
poor man's fondly that a redUction of eight cents
a bushel affords any great oacasion for rejoreingl
There is hardly a poor man around us who uses
half a dozen bushels' of salt a year, and many a
man with a family uses hardly a single bushel, and
;,yet he is to rejoice at the blessed effects of the
British Tariff—it will 'reduce his salt eight cents
per bushel.
' There are poor men who raise no wool to coin=
pets with-,fine Brazil wool, but who buy fabries.l
made of Brilzil-eThdl.. Now the Post would have I
us understand; toot fine Brazil wool is to pay a
higher duty under the new tariff than it does un-
der the-44;ff of 1812. Of course, therefore, ac
caidi'lagetothe logic of the advocates of free trade,
the pu'in titan n r tist pay more for his articl e s made
or- thia Broiif Wool under the new tariff, than he
did under the old one. Still let him •rejoica, for
he gets his salt eight cells a builiel fees. _
. There are poor men who labor in woolen man:
ufactories..: Tow new and beneficent measure says
to the foreigrriairor.er,your wool ()manufactured
may he admitted into this country, at a duty of
thirty pet, cent._` On . foreign' labor, however, we
pay a bounty. 3ot:Wpm - 4w that wool with foreign
lateor,rnike it into blankets and bat bodies, and
they shall come in ut twenty per cent. This may
be a hula' hard upon the American laborer, but 1w
can stave?* very Well, we give him his salt eVit
cents a liiglekelieaper than he had it before.
There nrelourneymen rifil...i- %yip are poor
men, and who claw find employment in the multi.
trade of: re-prints of English' boulta, which ale dai
ly issued front the A mdr,ican press. The new ta
riff says to the English publisher send over an ear
ly supply of popular works for our. market.—
English type setting and press work, are at a pre
. Oulu in Amerida. We lay a duty' of thirty per
cent. on paper, and admit books, Magazines, and
pamphlets at ten and twenty per cent: This must
and will cause a large number of works which. are
now id-printed here, to be imported under the new
duty of ten per cent. Of esjurse, it so far takes
away employment from the American printer, and
gives at to the rtgleshinan. Never' mind, says
tfree trade: If 'we have t 'ken away the poor mate's
; . parridge, we have made hiS yak iiteuper by eight
:ceini a bushJi - Such is the bait which free trade
lays (mom the snare she sets before the American
laborer. Such, the miserable delusion for which
she' a-ks him to barter his best interests.
This rejoicing, with the pour man on the des
trueterni of the tariff of 1812, is aftleted sympathy,
—is a -frilling kindness." ' If its
overthrow is to
tee so greatly rejoiced over, why did trot the peen
men of the counti:Y apply to Congreis by petitions
and: memorials fur its repeal,—and. why were the
petitions of the poor sneered eat,.and sthleal in Con
gress, and wny was the measure at last carried by
party drill under the spur and crack of the whip?
If the tariff of 1842 had been left with the poor.
it would not have been repealed. , .•Sooner would
the mouth hare torn the baud that feeds it."
Is. it 2ossible that by 'such trash_the, people can
he again deceived? Is it not itikultinky while
they are suffering under a prior fraud, to address
therm thus a second time? Though We find it ne
cessary to refer to the propagation and diffusion of
these slanders, in doing so We can scarcely keep
cool. • • . . . ,
.THE :CAI. (403131ISSIONEAS.=-1t is now gen
erally admitted that the Hon. James M. Power of
Mercer County, the Whig Candidate for Canal
Commissioner, will be elected over William 13
Foster, whose renomination was
.cauted by the
immediate influence of the personal friends of
Goy. Shunk, for the purpose ,of making the way
clear for the renomination of, that tunctionary
also.
W. B. Foster will be opposed, by all the ene
mies of the present State administration, not a few
in nuntbei, rend also by the friends of protection
in Pennsylvania without regard to political pre- -
dilection with a view to showing the Federal Ad
ministration that this State cannot be whipped
into the traces as Dallas, Sevier and others stated.
The question now is, what majority can Pennsyl
vania give Mr. Power. This gentlemen's appoint
ment can nut but be an advantageous one to the
State as beds thoroughly acquainted with internal'
irnproveritents; and in all respects competent to
make an excellent Commissioner.
All the Locoloco papers are appealing to the
working' men to keep easy, dont complain, busi
ness will go on as usual—it is only a trick. of the
Whigs to get up a panic, all of which ought to
read as follows: "We love you dearly, altho'
we dori't 'employ you,—we are your friends, and
those' who employ you are your enemies—it is
true, our meamres have reduced your wages, and
thrown a number.of you out of employment, but
we know that it is for your own good— . and that
of the party—we a•o your leaders—we live on
the succe, , s of "humbug," and if you, don't keep
Trier, our "occupation is gone," and we'll have to
go to work too, or starve." Are they riot kind
And considerate. How can our mechanics, miners
end workmen, be so cruel to suck kind benefac
factors as to complain about the reduction of the

—Some of the Administration Journals. have en
dravoralto &fend the ad tiabirem system of du-
ties, embraced in-the new !tariff by quoting Mr.
Clay as authority in favorpf them. lo referring,
however. to Mr. Clay'slankuager on that sul ject.
they omit to make.mentiod of the factlhat a home
raluation was especially- 4signated as the basis
of the ad valorem systSrn'hid) he favored. This
of course, changes the wh rle aspect of tha case.
If it were riot fur the frau. of false invoices and
for the low rates of valu, lion male in foreign
countries from which goods are shipped, the Ilia
civic of fixing the duty ilccolditig, to the value
I
would be a very good one. ' 111 soma cases where
it can be applied without c anger of fraud or era
sion, as upon articles of. kriown value, the Whigs'
admit it. But- her the very reason that we-have
'not a home valuation, th friends of protection.
generally prefer specific du t ies. With such duties .
the %Oleic process is simpl. ; the efficiency of the
duly certain.-
There appears to be purksely a misrepresenta
tion of Mr. Clay's views do another question con
nected with the tariff, wbek he s e ealss of the prin.

ciples of his compromise wt. It must hero be
premised there is a ditto nee' between the coin
s prondse bill itself, and the, principles of Mr. Clay .
That bill causing a gradual reduction for ten years,
until' all du'ics reached thl level of 20 percent..
after which discrimination, and with it, the priori.
Of Sof the bill ceased. lits was done as all the''
world.knows, to save the rutective policy of the
country from immediate (Destruction. The prin
elides uplift wLich Mr. Cloy wished to have a ta-'
riff are these—they provided an averagg duty of
20 , per cent., which, with home valuation and
cash payments was deemed by our manufacturers,
equal to 30 per cent. • This average was thus,ef
fected on articles requirin l g protection, the duties
ranged from Vito :00pir cent., while on articles
that did nut, it was as !owl as 5. This is the true
principle of a revenue l: w, front which, in . Mr.
Clay'sopinion,there should be as little departure as .
possible, but Mr. slay Welnt further, maintaining
if the 20 per cen6,was iruflicient for revenue,
the duties'on foreign imp( eta, should be augment=
ed beyond die rate of 201 per cent.,'so as to pro:'
duce a nett revenue of i 526,000,000, which he
considered necessary, andito raise this amount of
revenue, the
,he principle of. his proposed bill, i. e.
discrimination, should be I generally adhered to.
HAWKING AND PEIIiiLINO IN SCIIUTLKILL
(.7ouscv.—During the !e r r, legislature a law was
passed prohibiting all hi "king and peddling of
either. oreign or domeslle goods within the lim

without a licence, under the penalty,,cf being ar :

but 'it is a violation of th i r law. Ao deliver the same

As it is not generally ;known, that such a law

The geological situ ation of this mine. has been
represented by tome, iris belonging to ; and forming
the eastern extrekityior the Hazleton Coal
by others it is said - to; be in Dreek Creek Coal Ha
ambsorne have pronounced it to he an exten

conflicting statements as regards the por.ition of
the mine, and having a desire to be acquainted
with its geological locality, for the purpose of mark
ing on a map I am now preparing, nit true place
of the different collieries in that part of our An-
thr:ieite formations:l,44l'i the boundariesot the. va
flow, coal i 1360114, led rue to make a minute exami
nation of the direction and dip of tnestrivirof the
mountains and valleYs in itt vicinity. • l'hi:se ex-
awinatious, I am pleaseff . to state have resulted in
some interesting, ital. , , which tend to show the
true situation of thellduelt Mountain Company's
coil mine, as regards its geological position with
the different coal haiins before named.
TheAt; Lets, (recently collected) I respectfully
submit.
'• Buck Mountain," the name of the mine, is
not the name by which the moutita'n is known,
on which the ciatnprry'si work 4 are ted. The
Buck Mountain is nearly three miles orth front
the mine., With the !valleys of 131. • Creek and_
Safely Creek intervening.
The local naine of the mo, nt tin on .which the,
mine is situated is l'asniire Ridge, and Ise contin
uation of the hill that lies between the. Beaver
Meadow- and tJailcton coal valleys. in the origin
of the workstretenWners did not approve of the
appellation “Pistfaerßidge Mine," they therefore
called it Buck Mountain the name by which it is
now known.
Before I procee.l to give the partieulars of my
examinations. it ntnv be well to state, that the
country north and, Sottih of the Buek Mountain
-coal :nines, is compOseal of alternate hills and nar
row valleys, ran . ging parallel to each other in near
ly an east westdireetion. noel exteriding seve
ral miles in length..l Streams of water run through'
to the Lehigh on the east, and the Susquehanna
on the west, the bead- waters of which rise on
table land between the hills. and in consequence
of the valleys being narrow the table laud is of
8 1:8 I area.' The head aVaters of the streams bast
rise between the nifrthjrn mountain. are a shorter
distance from the Lehigh river, - t h an those th a t
rise between the sonttiern mountains. imnsequerd.
ly the table f andisllound in a north east and south
west- direction'.
A better idea of the topographical and geologi
cal character of the country may be sown by
taking- awell knoWn starting 'point, say trom tha
le u:anait Hill co.d thine on. the Lehigh Company's
in.ve, and proceeding from thence in a northern
direction. C'eossing the hills and valleys, giving
their local twine, with a brief, description of each
u; they come in order.
From the Sutninit 11111 coal mine we, (suppos
in!, the reader in cbmpany,) cross the coal valley
to Locust' Mountain the north boundary of the
Lehigh distoct of !the South Anthracite Region.'
After passing t!.e iionglornerate, the rock that un
derlies the coal strata, ant: crops out in immense
masses mi the auintnit of this mountain, we de
' scend into tuc N4simelioning valley, a red -hale
formation through' which the Nesquenoning, creek
flows to the Lehigh riser. ,The head waters of
the Ne-quchoning rise' about lour miles to the
west, and about one mile north from where the
Locust creek (which rises about nine mites fur
ther west in the prnlongation of this valley,) joins
thin Little Schuylkill:and passes south through the
gaps of Locust arid Sharp mountains at Tamaqua',
(see my small map of the South Authractte -lie
_
Leaving the, Nesquelionind we
,ascend Broad
mountain. and pail over the eastern extremity of
the Motioning, or MiddlMAnthracite Region, and
thence descend into the Quaquake valley.
The extension! of the Lehigh and Susquehan
na, or . Cattawissa rail road, is through the Nes` 7
quehoning valley, it connects with the Beaver
'Meadow rail road tive miles west from the Lehigh.
On the high ground about six miles to the west'
and near where the road leading from Tamaqua
to Hazleton and iWilkeshorie passes, are the head
waters of the Qiisquake which ru] . east to thp
Lehigh, the !Kati waters of the south branch df
Cattawisso creek; that runs west to the Susque
hanna, and the head waters of the Little Schuyl
kill, which runs `south, and joins the Locust creek
before spoken of
Ascending till Spring mountain, north of the
Quaquake, and arriving at its top, we perceii e the
range of conglotherate rock dipping to the north:
This roick forms the bed of the Beaver Meadow
coat veins; end the Spring mountain is'tho•suuth
ern boundary of this celebrated coal s basin4 The
extension of thbt mountain eastward to the Lehigh,
is south of the Buck .Mountain coal mines two
miles. Westward it extends, and_ hounds on the
south, the, Summit Company's coal lands, the coal
estate of the NOrthampton and Luzerne Compa
ny; and passes through the coal estate of John
Hare Powel, Esq., and (rem thence west until its
continuation is disturbed by the waters of the Cat;
tawissm
In the valley; north of the Spring mountain and
about fourteen Miles west from the Lehigh, is the
summit dividing the waters/of Beaver creek from
those of the main • branch of Cattawissa. Bea
ver creek runs through the valley eastward front its
head, sena miles, where it joins Hazle creek and
thence passes i through the gap in Spring moun
tain to the Quaquake, and from thence to the Le
high. The confluence of Beaver and H azlecreeks
with the Quaquake, is at the connection of the
Cattawissa extension with the Beaver Meadow
rail road. In the continuation of this valley east
ward, the Laurel creeks rises, and runs through tt
to the Lehigh.: The main 'branch of the Cana=
