It is our intention to enlarge the dithensions of ;he Miners' Journal, and introduce various other altet rations and improvements, with the view of increasing out space , for news-matter, anti affording additional fa cilities for our increasing advertising patronage. I We shall airange the enlargentett in Bitch manner' as to preserve the present shape of the paper, and in troduce three or four columns of additional space. We atilt thus furnish more matter; than is provided by many of the mammoth publications of the more populous towns, and have nope:of their . uncomforted , airs of shape. • , Our arrangements for furnishine the latest Weill , genet are ample and complete. The Magnetic Tele graPh connecting this piece with all i the leading Cities in.the Union, enables us' .procure important news to the very latest moment... This is of`course a very heavy expense to us, and we may add Unit this Is the only Journal in this section of the. State. that has engag e d its services. The markets of New Toth, Philadelphia, dr.e., arc reported to within a fewehours of our going to press, thus placing us considerably in advance of the. regular publications of thecities. The character of the newspaper is, as a genlral thing, a certain index to the character of the people supporting it. Like to minister representing our Govern ment. at a foreign court. the people are wont to eAti mate our character fiThu the conduct anti eppearance ofour representative. A newspaper abroad'is regarded as the representative of the people supporting it. The Miners' Journal has a very large circulation imongsthe heavy capitalists of th larger cities, and is looked upon as the immediate representative of the in • termite of this region. -Vete, to render this representa tive worthy of the posiiicm, is our object and should be 'every citizens pride—for in proportion as the appear - mice and respectability of a journal is maintained -.abroad, is the character of the people for intelligence, and substantial integrity cstablishi.d. ' • TECR COUNTY PRISON-AGAIN Our remarks on this Elltirel two ()Ohre° weeks ago, have had the effect of:directing tt:c attention of the people to it; and• from what we have been able to learn, thtre is a decided preference for the jaenitentiarY.system,or the p'an df the Berks ty prison, now nearly .finietied. This pri's.nt we have before described, rand we -need only ray, to • :indicate the success of trip plan, that it has ed the hearty , and .Inatiimoua approbation or the ' - Prison DiEcipline'soc . iety of Pennaylvania, who have Published at their own expense; a full dc -acrifitien of the' arrangetnent of the 'pivot', illus. ~, t ratfti with elegant engravings, &c. which they dist4ute gratuitously for the .berirfit of the pub lie.,, ‘t has been visited by many persons from ot. States, interested : in prison-discipline, and lose invariably been pronounced the most perfect in its details of any other plan heretofore inir.duced. •-• A distinguished citizen of -the Darrieh Govern- Li- I • 4nent, who has fur some time been tray, Ling in . r• • Our country, making obseivations of our prisons 1 ... -. to report to his Government upOh his return, is now inspecting the -13erksGounty . Prison, and ei"- plisses his coneutrence LIM general belief, that Molar superior to all other plans, and best calcu lated to 'subscrve the ends' of justice, the moral reformation of the prisoner, lessen the expenses of maintenance, and promote his•physical health • and well-being. The design' embraces : an outer wall of 300 :• feet in depth and 177 in width or front. The building has a wide hall in the centre of it, with cells arranged on both' ides. Attached to each • cell' is a strip of ground 30 feet'in length and 8 .feet in Width. Beyond this is the general pris3n . ~,yard,2o feet in width, and running length wlee with _ the outer wall.. Grtes are placed between this yard end the cell yards, so that those in the latter may not ace those in the former. The latter yard is intended merely for the recreation of invalid Prisoners, who may not be able.to work, and is ar ranged in garden-beds. so that they May cultivate vegetables, src. for the general cansumption of the prison, or themselves. The building does not extend thiT Whole depth of the wall, but if det•ira- ble may have additions erected from time to time, for which the space in: reserve is entitle._ This priscin was contracted fur by Juhn • land, Esq. well known throughout the Philan. . thropic-world as une;of the ablest prison-architects of modern times, and who perhaps has done more in a quiet way, thrtinh the arrangement of the prisons which heita!s erected,lor the amelioration of the ; condition of :th', Unfortunate convict, and for the general decrease of crime, than any other aitisen of our country. The stiPutated Ellin Was. 165,000—which ineludes ell the internal prover. ties, as ventillatere, bathing and cooking apparatus no, &c. &e. beside; about ,10,000 of ornamental I . work, which could easily have been dispensed with without irnpaiting the main features of the design. He is nuW preparing a design fur a Prison, in tbit,county, which is nearly similar to • , that of the Berks County Prison. • Whatever deign is adopted by the: c..tmmission -ers,rit lot should be selected with special regard to to access of stone, as in that case, a great say • mg could be effected in its construction. • • WASHINGTON NATIONAL MONUMENT We last week were presented by Mr. Fenn, the polite agent of !this association, with n splen did lithographic•oiew of the proposed monument to the father of his country, in IN athington The design is, p..4haps, one of the .grandest ever conceived for any like structure in this country, and will be•a tit reemorld of him, who was "'first in pesee, first in War, and first in the hearts of hiS countrymen." From the public descriptions of this ettipen. dons structure; which , while it will be a lasting monument to the greatest unit noli:est of men, will also' pesTrett4te the age which consecrates it in histonur,•:—we Learn that the design embrates the idea of a 2t•nd circular callonnaded 250 feet in diam i er, 100 feet high, from which springs obelisc shaft, 70 feet at the base, and 500 feet high, making 'a total elevation of six hundred feet. The collonriade will be finished in the most ehiberate style, and en apartment appropriated for Statues of the Signers to the_ Declaration of In dependence, heroes of the Revolutionary war, &c. It will'.be 'suppbrted by immense pillars, capped with the.eicutchenns of each Slate in the Union, and surmounted in a grand dome, with that of the 'nation. Suitable apartments are provided for Paintings, &c:, and miscellaneous statues and 'works of art, end the idea is to render it one of the leading galleries 'for the study of•amateurs in thisi country. , riPA meeting was held in Philnde'phis the ether night, for the relief of the Mormons, who On now sufreAg in California, and on the road 'thereto.

POLITICAL CRISIS The dark clouds which have for some time been gathering in the pc;litical firmament, and 'which are casting gloom upon our National esci.W cheon, have_ awakened the Sage of Ashland from his repo'se, and the singular spectacle is presented of a Nation of people turning suddenly and in- stinctively toward him-in the hour of peril, for advice and counsel. We have it ;—not Crone the lips of the Sanatort—not from one 'clothed in official dignity, or wearing the externals of power! —but from the lips of the Christian; the eloquent Man;'the ineutruptible Patriot ! His counsel is that, which a father, would give to his child;— every sentence breathtng Peace, Justice, and the immutability of Honor ! These should mark the American narri. as well as the upright citizen. When did Henry Clay's voice go forth, but aroused Falsehood fr - om her retreat, and its echoes came back with Truth in their train? Never! —On Saturday last, pursuant to previous an nouncement, he addressed his fellow citizens at Lexington, Kentucky, on the subjects of the Mexican War, the Wilmot Proviso, &c. der. The meeting was attended bye large number of. persons from other States than Kentucky, and several persons present had travelled a Thousand miles to hear him. The speech is pronounced; by those who heard it, one of the grandest and most powerful efforts of the great Orator. , As the subjects were of an exciting and mo mentous character, and the views of the venerable Statesthan looked- for with the greatest' anxiety, by thousands of people ntt only in our own teen ! but throughout the Old World, it was deemed advisable, in the outset, to guard against misrep: - resentatiom or improper construction of his lan guage and sentiments. He therefore refused to have his remarks reported; but declared 'his inten j lion of having them prepared for publication Under his personal supervision—obEerving that he had been so often' miiqupted that this course was ren dered imperative atAhis time, both in self-defence and in justiCalradais friends. 1 In consequence of this, his Speech his rot yet appeared in .print, but we doubt, nut that ere this reaches many of our renders, it will be given to the world under the direct sanction of the author. We shall await its appearance-fully prepared to lay it before our readers with the greatest despatch. With regard to the-sentiments of Mr. Clay, as expounded in his-Speech, we do not of con rre feel et liberty to speculate.' But, as far as they are endied.ed in the resolutions which' he submited to the meeting, there can be no such thing as mistaking them. -They are 'sound, statesmamlike, and explicq ; arid will meet the hearty approval "43f-every right-thinking person in the land. • The known object. of the Administration of annexing, eithei by Conquest or purchase, an im mense foreign territory to our already ,unlimited boundaries, and of giving away the proud privil eges of the - American citizen to millions of people of different color, language, religion and character, and, - placing them upon equal grotind with us, is regarded by him as altogether inexpedient, unjust , and dangerous : and, he, opposes the project with all the peculiar eloquence and wisdom for which his name is so SCOW:VOCAL lie denounces the' authors of the war es. having brought it about unconstitutionally, recklessly, and foolishly ; of prolonging it to an incalculable length, and-involv ing millioris of treasure, and the daughter of thou- sands of our countrymen in its lame prosecution. He regards Slavery as a great evil, and is opposed t-to its extension in any shape, and more particu- Ilarly through the arquiii ion of - new. territors— believing that .sur territorial limits are' already (sufficiently broi'd, and that to widen them would • • - create • new dissensions in our politic's, •religion, interests and feelings; if it did not prove disastrous • •to our repuldican-institutions. • Resolutions submitted by the Hon. HeAry Clay, nt the Public Ofceting held in Lexington, Ky. Nor. 13 19. Ist. Reulted, As the opinion of this MeetiaM, that the at - Unary cause of the present unhappy War existing lit tweet' the United States of America, and the Unif States of the Republic of Mexico, was the Annexatiint of Texas to the former and immediate Occasinp of hot tilities between the two Republics, arose out of the or der of the President of the United States, I',r the ream- rat of the army u toter the roonnand of Gen. Taylor, . from its position at, Corpus Christi, a point opposite to Malamutes, on tiro easthank of the Rio Bravo, withd,l the territory claimed by both republics, but then under the jurisdiction of Mexico, and inhabited by its citizens —that the order of the Pi esident for the removal of the 1 army to that point, was iniprovident and tinconsturi itbeine without tile 'concurrence of Congress, or,l any consultation with it, although it was in .scssion ; but that Congress having by subsequent acts recognized the war thus brought into existence without its previous -authority or consent, the prosecution of it became there by -national. 'ld. Rewired, That in the. :Thence of any formal and public des 'nation by Congress of the objects for which the war ought' tsi'be prosecuted, the President of the - I United States, a 4 Chief Magistrate. and as Commander in-Cite f of the army and navy' of -the Coifed States, Is left to the guidance of his own judgment to prosecute to sot h purposes and oljects as he may deem the honor and: interests of the ration to' require, 3.1. firseiretl, That. by the Constitution of the United States, Congress being invi.sted. With powers nrileclare tear and grant letters of marque and reptisagtoSenake rules concerning captures on lard and water to, raise and support, untie..., to provide and maintain a& and to make rules for the goveruntent,of the land and naval forces, has the fullest complete war-making pow er of the Untied States, and so possessing It has a right I to determine upon the motive, causes and objects of war, when once commenced, or at any time during the progress of its existence. 4th, Resolved. As the fitrthar opinion of the meeting, that it is - the duty of Congress, to declare, by Some au thenfie act, for what purpose and object the rxi,ting war ought to be further oro4ectued • that it. is the dilly of the President, in his official con duct, tom - inform to such a declaration of Congress; and if, after such declare tom, the President 'SIIOUId decline or rclifse to endeav or, by a I the tneahs', civil, diplomatic, and mil itary.in his power, to exceute the.annotinced Will -of Congress, and in defiance of its authority shoold continue to pro secute the war fur purposes _and ',Meets other than these declared by that body, it would become the right and duty of Congress, to adopt the most efficacious measures to arrest the further progress of the war, taking care to make ample provisions for the honor, the safetyond security of itucarinies in. Mexico 'iii every contingency ; Mid if Meilen - should decline or refuse to conclude a treaty with its. stipulating for the purposes and objects so declared by' Congress, it would he the duty of the Gov entomb( to prosecute the war with the mutest vimiance, until they Were attained by atreaty of peace. sth. Resolved, That we view with serious alarm, and are utterly opposed to any purpose of annexation of Mexico, to the United Stains, In any mode and especial ly by conquest—that we believe the two nation's could _not happily governed by one common authority, - owing to their great ditnrence of race, law, language and religion, and the vast exterh of their reapectiveter ritories and large amount of their respective pi:muta tions—that such a union tigsinst the current of the ex asperated Mexican people, could only be effected-and preserved by large standing :unties, the constant appli cation of znilitaty force, in 'other words by despotic away exercised over :the Mexican people in the first' instance, but which there would he just cause to nppre htnd, might in process of time he extended over the whole people of the United States—that we deprecate,' therefore. such a union, as wholly incompatible with rite genius of nor government, and with the character of our free atolliberal institutions. and see anxiously hope that each nation may he left in the undisturbed posses sion of its own labor., langunge,cherished religion and territory, to pursue its own happiness accordingto what . it may deem best for itself. Gth. Resolved, That considering the series of splendid and brilliant victories achieved by our brays , armies and their gallanrcomotanders during the war with kiosk°, unattended by a single reverse, the United States, with: out any danger of thidr honor suffering the slightest tarnish, can practice the virtues of moderation and magnanimity toward their disconift•ed foe; Wollls'o no desire for the dismemberment of the Republic of Mexi co, but only the just and proper fixation of the limits of Terri". 7. Resolved, That we do positively and emphatically disclaim and disavow any with or desire on our part td acquire any foreign territory.whatever, for the purpose , of propagating slavery, or of intraducing staveryfroin the United States into such foreign territory. Reaolred, 'that we invite one fellow citizens of the' United States, who are anxious for the restoration of the blessings of peace, or if the existing war shall cur- Unita to be prosecuted, desirous that its purposes and objects shall he defined and known, who are anxious to overt present and further perils and dangers y:ith which it may be fraught, and who are also anxious to produce contentment and satisfaction at home, and to elevate the national character abroad, to assemble together in their respective communities, and to • express their views, feelings and opinions.

This, however, is not the only instance of enterprixe in that quarter, of which We are cognizant. From the day the paper was established, we foresaw the deter mination of the publishers to occupy the very ae plus ultra of Newspaper excellence, and events are daily occurring to prove that We did noCinistake our men. Ifs success has been unprecedented. Its daily circula tion during the last week - ; has averaged about twenty two thousand copies, and it continues increasing in a proportionable rate. The judicious and liberal expen diture of capital, has placed it far ahead of its cotem poraries, and the sleepy Ledger will soon open its eyes to find the people unwilling longer to swallow its homcepathic doses of Locofocoisin. Its circulation is rapidly , diminishing, and it will not be long ere that of ' l ilO Notes exceeds it largely. If there, are any Whigs in our Roiough, wjio stilt temper their principles with Locofocoirm, inhale, in liberal draughts from the Ledger, we would entreat them to try the News—try it forone month, and our word for it, they will prefer it in every respect to any daily now published. . White upon this subject, we may as well state our surprise at the course or the North, American; with re spect to the Nstcs. The'American ha very grind paper, and has displayed' liberal share of enterprize ; but be cause the welitlirecied efforts - of the New were crown ed with success, we can see no reason why'ihe• North American Slum Id suffer its "angry passions to rise."— The Doily News is an indispensable auxiliary to the ,Whig cause, and in the country at least, will exercise more salutary influence with the mass of the people, ,than any Journal in Philadelphia. Its course has been marked with an ability and calmness, which even the North American might emulate, and the success which has attended fully demonstrates the estimation In which it is held. • ' We Nave no dibposition to meddle in neighbor's quaircis,,. , but in this case we feel that the North Anicri can has gees' rather too presumptuous an. ill-tinted, and without a particle of reason that we can-dint:me .
