domination. I should feel bound to administer the
Government' untrammelled b y party echemes.
Sued—The veto power. The power given by the
constitution to the Executive to 'aerie:4e his v eto, is a
high conservative power; bet In my opinion should
never be exercised except In cases of clear violation of
the constitution, or Manifest haste and want of consid
eietion by Congress.. indeed, I have thought that, for
piny years past, the known opinions and wishes of the
Executive have exercised undue and injurious Influ
ence upon the legislative department of the Govern
went; and for this cause I have thought our system
was in danger of undergoing a great change front Its
trot theory. The personal opinions of the individual
*ho may happen to occupy the Executive choir, ought
not to control the action of Congress upon questions of
domestic policy; nor ought his objections to be Inter
posed where questions of constitutional power have
been settled by the various departments of Government
and acquiesced In by the people.

LOCOFOPO PALSEHOIODS!
A friend has just celled our attention to that
British Tory paper, the Philadelphia Ledger,
which contains an article copied from an obscure
journal in this Borough, (en ally to the former)
celleJ the True Democrat, purporting to be in'
reply to our coal article of last week. The exist
ence of such a paper as the True Democrat is
scarcely known to those engaged in the CO9l
Trade here, and the knowledge of the -editors of
this branch of business is about as extensive as
that of a child five years old. Had the article
been confined to this meridian, it could do no
harm 'whatever but since it has been copied,
etroad, and the Ledger with its usual lying pro
pensity, suttee that the paper in question is "large;
ly devoieicto the mining interests of this section,"
(although we believe this is the first, as it should
be the last article on the subject that ever appeared
in its colUrrine!).=we feel ourselves called upon
to reply to it, and shall do so next week. The
late period at which the article was handed to us,
prevents us from doing it in the present number.
THE FOREIGN. COAL TRADE t

A gentleman from the East, States that upwards
of two hundred vessels, laden with Foreign Coal,
have arrived at Boston and vicinity within a short
time! The extensive lion establishment near

fer him to Mr. Geo. W. Snyder, of this Borough,
'who reeertill'orisited the above works, and which,
we may add, were erected to use the Pennsylva

can procure the Foreign article cheaper, (under
the present Tariff law,) even at the present low
rates of our staple, which is purchased this year
on cheaper terms in Boston than it ever was be
fore! The other mills in operation, Also use For

AN EXCELLENT LETTER. .
Wo take great pkainre in laying before our
readers the following letter from John Cooper,
Esq.,-who was an active ant: influential supporter
of Polk and Dallas in 1844. The letter, it will be
perceived, is in reply to en invitation to address
the meeting which was held on Saturday evening.
a nt the 4:bine/is Museum, Philadelphia.
Derieins, August 2 , 1848.•
Gentlemen :—I have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt of your letter of tha 26th inst. inciting
me to address you on the 2d of September neat,
at the Chinese Museum. To say that a compli
ment emanating from a source at once so intelli-
gent end respectable, is merited by any claims I
posaesi to corisiderstioes3 distinguished, would
be an excess of vanity of Which it is not in my
nature to be guilty. 'But of this be assured, thst
if, motives for exertion in • cause, on the success
of which so much of the happiness and prosperity
of the population and the Union, sod of our State
in particular, depends, your letter is calculated to
stimulate services, - which however deficient they
may be in talent and power, are not, neither shall
they be lacking in zeal and devotion.. I have
ever been a Democratic republican, and, so far as
my knowledge extended, devoted to our republican
institutions, when carried oat in theory and prac
tice according to their true intent And meaning, as
prescribed and construed .by the )Iretit men who
framed them with almost superhuman wisdom end
patriotism. But when I clearly discern that the
' weakness and wickedness of the present incumbent
.of the presidential chair has seized upon perhaps
the only aristocratic feature in our admirable con
atitution, to wit : the 'squalified negative of tbeez
ecutive," so as to'prement the pawage of any bill,
which does not square with that abortion of
ignorance and 'latish' submission to the one-man
power, called the Baltimore platform—when I see
lt more than intimated that no taw-ought to take
effect unless it can obtain a vote of two-thirds of
both house' of Congress=when I sea that axe
cony., patronage and influence has been incalcu
lably multiplied by James K. Polk'e seizing upon,
by a gross perversion of the powers ,delegated to
thoEsenutise by the ConititutiOn, the only means
in his power to nurse end foster his own merelri•
Mous aggrandizment, to wit :—the propulsion of
measures which had a direct tendency to plunge
us into a war, first with Great Britain, and instri
tably with Mexico; to give to him,although other
wise insignificant and imbecile, a command of the
purse and the : eword,l, and not only a participation
in the law-making power, but, moreover, such a
controlling influence in ordinary legislation as to
reduce to a shadow both betties of Congress, by
his sic viola, sic j who, hie del pro ratione V Ohilliad,
feel myself hound by the calls of Common honesty,
in so far es lies in my power, to remedy an evil
brought on the country in 1844, by giving our
support to one who has proired himself to be so,
totally unworthy and unfit to hold any office of
honor or trust smug the citizens of a free republic.
Independent of the honor and dignity which the
office of President of the United States conferred.
on them, our earlier presidents were, and would
have ranked among the great and good the world
ovei, in any age, in any country, under all and
every. circumstances;
. but mature decreed James
K. Polk to be narrow.mindeJ;of contracted views,
malignant, jealous, and envious, and of capacity
more suited to the meridian of a bar room, or •
ward meeting, than to rule the destinies of twenty
millions of freeman.—l write in perhaps what
may be considered language indicative of excite
ment, but [ deeply feel what I say. Mr. Polk
attained his present situation by bass and unpar
donable treachery, by a trick, a prevarication, a
flattering in double eense,,with those who moat
honorably believed that if elected 'he would have
taken the lame stand which General Taylor has
assumed in his "Alison latter," to let the people
be fairly represented in Congress , and to permit
them to carry out the principle of self-government,
by' non-interference with legislation on Matters
of domestic policy. unless in cases of encaech
ment by. the Nigislature on the constitutional
powers sad rights of the executive ; for in all other
cases of unconstitutional laws of palptthly corrupt
enactments, the courts and the ballot-box furnished
ample and abundant remedies. I cannot, in the
compass of a letter like this, go into detail or an
examination of the twenty instances of flegrant
usurpation of the prevent ex ecutive , by placing
himself in a situation as the - invader, spoliator and
subjugator of a foreign country, and tnat country
a sister republic, who had copied their institutions
from a pattern which we are in a fair way to spoil.
A state of things never corn emplated by those who
framed our republican form of government, and,
therefore,they never provided a single clause in our
constitution suited to circumstances, the emir
rune of which never darkened their imaginations.
The Oregon controversy was equally ludicrous
and disgraceful. The Mexican war was uncalled
fur, improvident, unconstitutional, unwise and .
unnecessary. But here let me say that the victories
achieved by Scott and Taylor, have conferred im
perishable renown on our national flag; and this
is the only redeeming point in e series of adminis
trative acts on the part, of Mr. Polk and his
cabinet, 'resulting in an immense debt, an arrest of
industrial pursuits, a retrogression in agriculture,
commerce and manufactures, which half a -century
of peace and prosperity will not suffice to atone
for, besides a desolation of domestic happiness, by
an effusion of American blood, which ought to
weigh heavy on the consciences of those who
caused it. I live, as you know, in an iron menu.
factoring district, and have deify and hourly to
witness the destruction of business—the wide
spread desolation occasioned by the ruinous' and
devastating policy of this administration. Danville
Is comparatively depopulated ; the families of
hundreds of our laborers and operatives in a state
of utter destitution! Instead of the exhilerating
sounds and brilliant fires ofour fainaces, foundries,
end fowls; silence per-varier our streets'and neigh
borhood. Our stores are deserted. Our agricul
turalists can no longer find in Danville or its
vicinity a market for their horticultural or agricul
tural products. Our houses, built by industrious
men, who hoped to pay for them by their future
economy and exertions, .are deserted, and those
who hoped to own them will lose them by inability
to discharge their remaining liabilities from want
' of employment, occasioned by the ruinous tariff of
1946.—0ur opponents are endeavoring to ex
clude the tariff question a. one of the issues to be
tried in this campaign. Our endeavors ought,'
therefore,to be most strenuously directed to this all
absorbing question in this state ; in their speeches
they treat it as a subject on which honest differen
ces of opinion may he entertained, without incur
ring denunciation fur a departure from progressive,
retrogressive, aggressive Locofoco party ties end
obligations. It is for us then to show conclusively
that Cass is chained by his own Oedipus
and the platform of Baltimore to the Juggernaut
car of free trade. The muse. want information
to separate them from the herders of cringing,
creeping, crawling, plodding knaves and party
tools—office-holders, office-seekers, minions of the
remunerating power, and sycophant. and parasites

t \ the knee that thrift may follqw fawning." Let
this be done, and the people are upright and honest,
' Let us show them io their true colors. Lewis
Cass, an old hacknied politician, whose whole life
has illustrated the character of "The Vicar of
Bray," and whose appetite for war is so great, that
if elected he would consider it our manifest destiny
to quarrel with all creation—who said at "Cleve
land," that the conduct of this administration
should. if he was elected, direct and guide himself
and his administration... Let the people understand
that by official speculations, peculation., and an
adroitness in fabricating charges for official services,
he has amassed immense wealth. That, if elected,
he will so construe hie own powers as to give
them illimitable extent; end that four years more
of continued usurpations will convert us from a
representative republic to en elective despotism,
and himself into an elective king, like that of
land; who however, unlike oars, had no unquali
fied veto on acts of legislation, but every separate
member of the Polish Diet bed the power of Fe;
toing any and all hills therein preferred. -
Let us contrast this selfish, arrogant indiarobber
like candidate, with the plain, modest conduct and
good sound sense end judgment of Zechariah Tay
lor, Buena Vistas' hero, who a plain republican
himself, with a thorough understanding of the
nature of the government he may be called on to
administer, and of the people who select him as
their ruler, will enable us by restoring our pristine
purity and patriotistia,. to sing, "Hail Columbia,

And wisdom and virtue *ill triumph at last.

arDevialion of Falling bodies South of Me
Perpendicular.—As long since as 1793: it was
discovered that heavy bodies, in falling from great
heights, in addition to the tendency to fall to the
east from the earth's rotation, fell also greatly
south of the perpendicular of the point from which
they were let fall. All the ?sxperimenta, how
ever, hitherto made on this subject have only been
from very moderate heights,Lfrom 200 to 500 R.
Mr. W. Rundell, - the secretary of the Royal
Cornwall Polytechnic Society, having made ■
series of experiments in the deepest shaft of the
United Mines, which is upwards of one quarter of
a mile in depth, read a paper on the subject at the
meeting of the society. As the value of such ex
periments must greatly depend on the method em
ployed, it took some time and trouble to arrange
tie beat Means for allowing the body to fell free
and without any horizontal impulse, and at length
the following; arrangement was adopted :—A
strong rectangular frame was constructed, having
a shelf stage inside it, capable of turning freely on
an axis near one end, supported by pointed centres
fixed in the sides of the frame; this frame was
placed in a hotizontal position over the shift, and
held 'in its place by buttons; the bullets were
,placed at the extreme end of this shelf, with no
other protection to preverit their falling off, than a
hole bored in the wood. A plumb line was now
suspended at each end of the frame sue east and
west of each other—s line drawn between them
passing over the centre of the bullet rest; to these
were attached heavy ptimmets, 'the lower ends
pointed. After they had hung some bouts, to
give time for all vibration to cease, a line was
drawn on the platform at the bottom of the shaft
joining their points,-which was taken as the datum
line from which to measure the defection. The
number of bullets used was 48, formed of each of
the following metals:---iron, copper, lead, tin zinc,
antimony. and bismuth; besides these, iron and
steel plummets Were employed, the latter mag
netised, they were in the form of truncated cones.
the ends being rounded ; they were each suspen
ded inside a cylinder to prevent draughts of sir
from affecting them ; in ballot* the experiments
the end of the shelf pointed to the east, and the
other ball to the west, yet, in every case, the body
all from 10 to 20 in, south of datum line.
These, it highly probable, are the most cor—
rect and conclusive experiments which have ever
been made on the subject, and carry with them a
conviction that there is a real defection to the
swith of the plumb line, and that in a fall of
one quarter of a mile it is of no small amount.—
Mr. RundeWm opinion as to the cause of this
singular phenomenon, which has hardly hitherto
been attempted to be explained, is—that, if falling
bodies be acted upon only by tho gravitating and
tangential face., the plane in which any falling
body moves will be indicated by two lines—one •
line, joining the point from which the body falls
with the centre of gravity, and the other, a
line at right angles with this, forming a tangent to
that part of the circle of latitude, which is situated
in the falling body at the instant he begins to
moee. Taking the earth as a perfect sphere. and
the centre of gravity as coinciding with the geom.
etricel
,centre, this plane will cut ,the earth in a
great circle, and is, of course; stationary, and does
not rotate with the earth. Now, while a falling
body is moving forward, end downward in this
plane, the point from which it fell is moving round
in the circle of latitude, and the line joining that
point and the centre of gravity flea no longer in,
this place, but has described part or the surface
of a cone round tha axis of the earth—conse—
quently, the falling body must be some distance
outside this cone, and the south of the vertical
line passing through the point from which it fell.
Mr. Rundell concludes, that-bodies falling one
quarter of mile in 9" latitude 50°, would have a
deviation south of the pumb line of 2-2 feet.

of Aritiuneticx prepared with great care by Mr. Almon

A complete KEY to the above works to ho had separate
or together.
TICKNOR'S ARITIDIETIC TABLES.
Tho first named is already introduced into some of the
best Academies, and a large number of School., where its
use has given universal oat:Realm; both to Teachers and
Pupils. It has the claim of being purely Amerman in its
character, based upon our own beautiful decimal system
of currently; and to considered by Teachers as the begin
ning of a new era in the beginning of science, by rejecting
the old English system (front which nearly all our present
Arithmetics are copied) of confining the pupil for years In
the processor reducing pounds faJitreAinsrs, and farthings
is pounds. This book is strongly recommended by the
lion. Thomas H. Burrowes, the late able Superintendent
of, and r..ther of our Commtin School System, as one of
the best AritliniZte4 In the Market. It is also recommend
ed by Mr. Olmstead, Pra.. - .40r of Mathematics in Liday-
Eno College; Mr. Stoover, PritiClVel of the Preparatory
Department of Gettysburg College; toget.::::f With several
hundred Professors and Teachers in various oecil'lLl Of
the country. No Arithmetic published in the United States
bus such a host of recommendations from practical teach
ers. See Primary Book, which only contain a portion.—
n erh cdeapct Aridanctic in tar neerku.
THE YOUTILIS COLUMBIAN CALCULATOR, by the
same author, has juet been issued. It contains 94 pages,
with about 000 examples for solution on the elate; igem
braces the fundamental rules. Compound rtules,Sinecand
Compound Reduction, Single Rule of Three, of Propor
tion, ste.'
Teachers who have examined this woik are of the opt
nion that ills just what Is very . much wanted rat this time
In our District Schools as a Prlmary Arithmetic for those
commencing the study of numbers, for the reason that
those Primary Books heretofore in use are either too ju•
vanile or, too far in eidvance for the pupil ; in fact, that
there has been no suitable Primary Treatise on Arithmetic
before the public. It Is oleo believed that this volume will
contain a suthcient amount of PAACTICAL Annutorte, as
will commonly occur in the tranmetion of ordinary bus
ness—more varticularly in the FrmaleDepnrtrnent of our
District Schools, mouy of whom seldom learn the lase at
numbers as fur as Reduction or Proportion; and as the
work La intended in part for this class of pupils, great care
and labour have been bestowed with a view to render
every part perfectly plain and easy of comprehension by
the pupil. '1 be calculatious are in "our currency," with the
use a t a few fractions, sufficient fur general use, as a
knowledge of fractions can be acquired from the larger
volume. •
The KEY embraces several hundred examples Arith
tactic and Mensuration, and other valuable matterfor the
use of the teacher. The examples are given in full, with
notes. explanations, illustrations, demonstrations, &c.
TIOEICHUS AIIITILMETICAL TABLES, is designed
for the use of younger classes in the Schools of the United
Mates. This Book is now published for the find time, and
is considered by competent judges the best Table Book in
,4
the marks . .
These v umes contain about threetliourand six hundred
meatiest. itestions fur solution; a greater amount of
Arithmetic ,Science than has ever been published in the
name space In this any other country, and are destined
to become the text hooks of the Union, being purely Ame
rican' is their character, and adapted equally 'to the wants
of the student, the man of businera the mechanic, and the
artisan. SaeThey ought to be introduced imtnediatelyinto

who has reason to suppose she is approaching that era

HEALTH AND BEAUTY.
Cmimetiee, chalk, and a variety of preparations gen
erally le'use, when applied to the face, very soon spoil
It of its beauty. They close the pores of the skin. and
check:the circulation, which,when nature is not thwart
ed by disease or dowdcr. or the skin inflamed byTthe
alkalies used In coupe, beautifies its own production in
the •human face Divine,' as well as in the garden of
rich and delicately tinted and vericated flowers. A
free. active and healthy circulation of the fluids or the
coursing of the pure, rich " blood to the extremities, is
that which Inverts the indeseribable shades and theh
es of loveliness that ell admire,"but long can describe.
This beauty is the of:ramie. of sature—not of powder or
,soup. If there Is not a tree and healthy circulation
there ono beauty. If the lady is fair as driven snow,
if she paint and use coemetics, and the 4t.ad is thick
cold and impure, she is not beautibil: If she be brown
or yellow, and there is pure and active blood, it gives a
rich bloom to the cheeks, and s brilliancy to their, eyes
that is fascinating. l
This Is why the southern, and especially the Spanish
ladies, are so much admired. • Ladies In tha north who
