that ho was compelled ; to return home and court

size, tufa there appears to be no hope of having it ,
disposed of soon. The:Judge has no time to hold

court, which would require a isitting of several
months, can dispose of it.
Several unimportant cases wetio'disposed of by
the associates. A man by the name of Kearney,
was sentenced to pay a fine of $4O and the costs
of prosecution, and be imprisoned six months, for

'hear almost daily of the disastrous effects of this
bill on different branchesof busiriess,in'this coun
try-IMay it blights landr and destroys the-enter
prize and business of the country. A gentleman )
froniNew York, states that an extensive firm en
gaged in the fur-business and which employed a
bout 400 hands in cutting, fa rs,tiaedischarged every
hand, and hereafter will- order their skins Irom
South America, -&c., to•be sent to Germany, whe n
the cutt;ng. will be done by the cheap' labor of Ger
i twiny, where the business is well understood, and
the fur then shipped to this country. , Another
establishment in the same kind of business, em-
ployiim about 300 hands . will pursue it similar
course, as soon as their present smck is worked up.
The reason for this course is simpl, this Intim
tariffof 1842, the duty on fur is,peotective, and on
the skins merely nominated, coirsequenay the fur
cutters in this country were protected, and thela
bor was perfOrmed in this.Couutry. 7 In the tariff.
of 1846, the duty is lowered, and no discrixnina-

I may suit the unreflecting, and those unacquainted
with there own interest!—but the honest and intel

Among thri latter number is Mr. P. S, Denkn, an
hottest and intelligent I ' I mechanic - of Reading who
Yoted for Polk & Dalhis, and who heard Mr. Dal

would be safe if Polk was elected. Mr.,D. has
publiated a : manly ,and •nensiblc riply . . to the
arguments of these Locolbees, in the Reading;
Evening Herald, from' which we make the follow
ing extract
‘ l The Mechanics - and working class are begin
ning th'think and reflect, and are determined to
act for themselves. They tell you that, you want
to enrich your employer and do nut care anything
about your own interest . There are the 'Eckerts
and the Rolling Mill Corrany, who are making
several thousand dollars per month and they pay
their hands with from 85-Atila tris-1....50 per day,
and old Whitaker was pa'af when be 'Commenced
there, and he is now able to a Cotton'F-acto
ry in Manayunk. What have , you got to sail°
that Mr. Mechanic? I say, sir,"they deserve all
that they have made and ten times as much if
they had it. How many houses would there have
'been in that end of the town, if those establish
ritenta had not been started there? How much
would that property have been worth I I will
give you some tithe to answer that question—but
it is a poor rule that wont work both ways. If
the proprietors of these establishments, and mere
particularly as you say, the Eckerts, are making
such immense fortunes, why lathe name of cotn
mon sense don't you get at it•l 'Many of you
have as much money or capital as the Eckerts, and
have the same
_chance to build Furnaces and Rol
ling Mills or anything else, and, if such is true.
as you say; they make so much mone??y - ou.ought
not to hesitate one moment, but go to work and
erect large manufacturing. establishments also.—
We would, sir only en one 'account, if we can
maks. times dull fur two or threo,yea/s.-,-,-there are
a number of Mechanics, and warkiffg Men - that
have bought property and built houses, have got
them, probably, one half or two thirds paid, for;
and some have commeeced business and invested
all ;that - they had in it of course—that• property
will be sold and we can buy it at probably one
half the priee.that they were to pay for it. After
we-have bought as much as we want we can
bring forth some measure that will improve
the times and we can sell that property, and very
• often double our :money—if not we can sell to
mechanics and take all the money that they have
and a tuortgago on' , the property for the balance.
Then, sir; they,have got to vote for us, and do as
we wish them, or we will fore elosi; our mortgages
and. turn them out on the world, and brand them
with the name of rogue, and caution - the public
to be wale of . themi Of course we will be be
lieved for we are the. Right Honorables
, don't be alarmed I do nut intend to men
tion names. So that is the Way that you make
your money, some times two or three thousand
dollars per day—thiityou make clear gain by ruin
ning,many famrhes, and'casting them, on the cold
charities of the world, and at the same time you •
censure the Eckerts - and others for making money
in an honest ant honorable way. and giving ear
ployEnent to hundreds of men, enabling them to
, support their families ip a respectable manner;
' what does it mater bons if our employers make
$lOO,OOO per week, as loss they pay us .our
stipulated amount of wages. I would . ; ask when
. have the Mechanic .and Workingman had their
employers more -in their power than they have
had since the pasage of the '42Tarillßill.,until the
'pas - sage of the '46 bill or deadly Upas, that is

sins existed betWeenthe 'Buck mountain owl the
Nescopeck ' mountain-, and we are led to this be !
lief from the fact that the, top of Sugar Loaf moun
tarn; West, of CoUytighato town, forrn the eongrom-'.
grate base of thelcoal ,forination--that east of this;
about six miles a detached coal bed of small area
exists on the spur of Buck mountain 7 - - that sever
al miles west, the co Irbacl of• McCauley's moun
tain is opened and has 'been worked; producing
eoal'of flee quality—and that the; crest of the
Nescopeck mountain in places contains the con
glomerate of -the - Celli fields. As fa'r - west a.s.Cat-,

mountain near the towel of Cattawissa, is the' base
1 of the coal formation: Haying briefly pointed out
the topography and geology of the .country, suffi
cient for the objeit for which this description was
intended, I shall now proceed to furnish the read
es with geological data collected for the express
purpose of ascertaining the partic t olar coal basin
in which the Buek Mountain company's mine is
situated.
I took my starting point from the bead waters
of Sandy - creek,;which runs east Ito the Lehigh,
separated from the head waters of Little Black
creek, and Cross creek a bnanchof Big Black creek
by -a small area,cif table land aboOt 6 miles from
the Lehigh. Sandy Creek coal basin lies between
Buck mountain.rind Black Creek] ridge. Black
Creek 'ridge is 'an anticlinal aiis, forming • the'
south baudflary. Of Sandy creek and the north
boundary of Biglßlack Creek coal formations.--
Passingv from Black Creek ridgq to the Buck
Mountain coal mine, I crossed the head waters of
Big Black'creek, 'and ascended Cornell ridge, ob
. serving-that the cianglomerate on its top-although
much broken made a saddle, that Its, it dipped , to-•
waids.Black I.:mil valley on the north, audit-like
wise has a dip to, the souls. Tho top of this
mountain is flat or slightly undulating for a con
siderable distance; forming a large eaortable
laud. The southibranch of Sandy CieVR, heads
on the east, and -some swampy ground • where . , a
small streatu which empties itself into Hazle
creek, lies on the :vest; •Furtherl south is another
ran g e of conglomerate' farming sadd'e or north
and south dip as the fernier. 'Phase two ranges of
conglomerate runs nearly; east and west: I did
not go east to the head +waters 'South Sandy
creek, but was . infOrned that coat was opened in
that place; this I have TM' reason in doubt, is true.
The swamp on the west,iis the eastern end or ter
mination of the Hazleton cant basin and the con
tinuation west of the ridges of 'conglomerate be
fore noted form itaktorth andsoulth boundaries.—
South Sandy Creik-Ccoal, basin is in a direct line:
with the Hazleton coal valley; separated' by the ta
ble land beforenadteci,;whicli is icariposed of de
.ta ched pieces of donglomerate and orange colored
sand stone that lie's underneath the Conglomerate;
between it and thd. , red shale: l'hti last named

as the Hazleton vein, nor any part of that vein;

Mr. Barman: The next resolction that violates
the principles of the Democratic party, is the one
relating to the levying-and collection of duties.--
This like its Predecessors, is evidently a copy, from
'sotto of the 54, 40 resolutions that had their origin
in' some of the Southern States. It has.certainly
but little bearing upbn tho subject; and that little
so, crude, that marginal notes are necessary to ei
plain its meaning. After the usual slang about "a
tariff, for revenue," it talks about a fair and liber
ai protection to "(ir. manufacturers," ,and while
&supposes the coal and Iron interests - maybe af-.
fe'eted, the author pledges-himself, thaV"their in
flitenee shall be honestly used," with "thenext
Congress, to correct Ithe supposed evil. This am
biguity and unnecessary display of words, is then'
strengthened by an additional resolution declaring.
that “the manufacturers owe it to themselves, to
frown down all atteMpis to get false - alarins
of ; panic l and ruin, sod thus unsettle the bdsiness
,of, the country !" But this is what is vulgaill
called "hacking our friends," and with Dominte
Bampsoli we have only to exelaim.p.r 7 o-digious I ,
Yet when. I look' Lit it 'soberly, for,it ,requires

obliged to regard it only as a lick•spittle peopen

self, are the Democratic .partr ho cheated and
golfed with such *alto nonsence Arc woto
swallow all the supPose's the if's the nays and the,
