expires this session. The Legislature has made a
wise selection—such en one as will meet the apPro

Mr. Cooper will be hailed with gratification by
every friend to the interests of Pennsylvania.—
Mr. Cooper has for some years been a member of

Congress from the' district in which he resides.
which. in connection with his superior talent, flu

FROM 011110..110RE DISTURBANCE.
The Ohio Legislature has again been the scene
of the tactical confusion. The Committee . on
Elections, to whom had been committed the-de
cision of the contested seats reported in favor of
Mr. Rockwell, Whig, entitling him to the seat
now occupied by the Democratic member from
Portage. The Committee also reported in favor
of the Democratic Member from - Clinton. whose
lest is occupied by a Whig. The latter matter
has• been recommitted to the Committee, on sc
. 'taint of. some informality.
, TheSenste and House assembled on theitth
lost. in Convention to count the votes for Gover
nor. The Speaker announced the result. A
committee was appointed to esamine into the al
leged MOM. The committee reported, rejecting
the vote of Lorain county, on the ground of infor
mality in sending the returns to the Capittl, and
declared Weller, Loco, elected by 2 8 0 majority.—
The Speaker decided the report out of order.—
Great confusion prevailed. The author of the re
. pot was determined to be heard. The Speaker
finally consented, provided a joint committee were
appointed to make a further esamination into the
matter. Seemly Ford, Whig, was then declared
Governor elect of Ohio. While the Speaker an 7
nouneed the revolt the utmost confusion prevailed.
Some members were highly incensed at the apes'
ken some made use of gestures, and even threats
of force were exchatiged. The Convention broke
up in a row.
THE CHOLERA.

It has broken out, and the Eighth Infantry have

to have taken place in one night. Upwards of a

The deaths ix. Memphis, Tenn., averaged ten per

Tb the Steekhaiders of the Philadelphia, arid
Reading Railroad Company. "
The Meager, proceed to submit to you their an.
met Report.
They have OCCUMII to settee that their amid-
Aeons as to the business of the year 1848 have not
' bees realized. and that this company, is 'common
with other, and with the community at large, has. ,
as is already well known to the dockholdersaroffered

When the last Attend Report was made, they bad
reason to belteva that no large increase of capital
would be required.

Ilan of the stockbeldem the fact, that same increase
would necessarily occur, is for instance, the inter

the Bonds. therefore, were not used, and the eon,
purr was still subjected to a constant drain upon its
I resources to meet and arrange the floating liabilities
which thus remained outstandine.
The extrafidiniry financial difficulties, not only of
this country, but of England. fell with peculiar se.
verity upon the Coal and Iron interests. The traffic
in these two redacts of Pennsylvania is intimately
connected, awl depression in the one, never fails
seriously to affect the other. These difficulties were
greatly increased by the provisions of the Tariff of
1846. Both of thew products were admitted at such
duties as gave bat little encouragement to oar own
citizens and exposed them to the most active com
petition from abroad. The price of labor in England
:of necessity fell in proportion to their financial dif
'ficulties. Thin their turn caused the abandon
ment of many pro jmi ed Railways and large quanti
ties of Iron. which it bad been supposed would be
required at home, were thus forced upon foreign mar.
kete. Under the present system nfadvalorem doter,
these importations. at extremely low rates. produced
a corresponding decline here, and closed sway Mills,
Furnaces and Mines. Thus the consumption of Coal
was greatly lessened. and the price sank to an extent
almost unprecedented. Many of those engaged in
the 'fez& became utterly unable to meet in cash the
demands of this Company for Freight. To have re
fused them credit would have been alike injurious to
oar policy and permanent interest. The object of
those connected with this work, mast ever be to en
large, encourage and foster the trade. To hare te
goaded the cash payments of Tolls at that period.
would fora time at had have amounted nearly to a
prohibition upon its transportation. The Machinery
of the Company would have remained idle The
operator, been thrown -into great pecuniary ember
easement, and those depending upon them driven
from that region to seek employment elsewhere
Thus the means to meet any improvement in the
trade and increased consumption, would have been
seriously impaired. Under these circumstances, bat
one Course was open to the Managers--to receive
the obligations of the parties in lieu of the cash pay
meat of the freight. These obligations the Coo.
puny, from pressing necessities was compelled to
dispose of at the then current rates of uttered, and a
large additional loss was thus sustained.
What steel were to ho taken to meet the unpaid
portion of the floating debt, and to maintain the ex
penses, while its funds were thus received not in casb
but upon the credit of those in the Trade, required
the most serious consideration.
To refuse or postpone the pa) ment of any of the
obligations of the Company, would have insured the
utter prostration of Its interests. Many of the debts
were secured by a much larger amount of Bonds de
posited as collateral security which alculd have been
immediately sold at an enormous sacrifice To have
called a meeting of the Stockholders at such a time,
would have rendered the downfall of the Company
inevitable, and when so assembled, what effectual
results could have been attained t Twenty days
notice must have intervened, and a majority of the
Stockholders mast have been represented at any ape•
cial meeting according to the Charter. It was too
well known from the futile attempt of others—from
the previous meeting ..in reference to the affairs of
this Conipany-i-from the scattered position of the
proprietors, (about one-third residing to England)—
and from the panic that the very call would have
created. that no prompt and e ffi cient aid could be
derived from that source. Indeed to have disclosed
the difficulties of the Company' at such a moment,
would have insured the most didistrons results, while
to make them known to the Proprietors at a later
and more favorable period, would work infinitely less
injury to the large interests intrusted to their care. It
was believed that the embartass mem in the trade was_
but temporary, that the financial troubles at home and
abroad would soon pan away. and that the Managers
would have been wanting in their duty to stair the
the credit of the Company, and the properiyof the
Stockholder, to be destroyed, if any temporary sac
rifice, however great , could area the evil.
Weighed down by' the unfunded portion of the
floating debt, the nonpayment of freight in cash, and
the enormous rates of interest charged—the impos
sibility of obtaining money from the Stockholders or
friends of the Company, to maintain its existence, no
course was left but for the President to allow some
of the Bonds, held as Collateral Security, to be sold
to meet the engagements for which they were
pledged, and for which no other provision could be
made. This enure was not adopted until every
effort to avoid it bad been exhausted until those
most deeply Interested had been applied to in vain.
From these causes it will be
.foxed by the accom
panying datementad the Treasurer, that the capital
of the Company. has been greatly increased. Included
however, in this increase, is the allowance of 30 per
cent. made by. direction of the Stockholders to thoda
parties who subscribed to the loan payable in 1856 at•
par, and have since converted it into preferred stock;
the construction accounts of the past years accounts
which were not adjusted when the former Re
port was submitted t the land damages. &c.—interest
on balances ; all. items properly chargeable to the
cost of the road, and which bath now been carried
to that account. .
It is proper to add that the leaden of the remain•
log Bonds of 1836 will be entitled, upon their con.
version, to the allowance authorized.
The Managers hare thus givec a brief statement of
the reasons by which they are governed, and en
tertain no doubt that the coarse which has been
punned, not without great anxiety and labor, has se-
cured the permanent prosperity of the Company.
They were farther influenced in all their determine.
tine by their abiding enntidence.ie the ability of the
work to surmount all these dfficithied
They have estimated the pores of the anteing year

Thus it will be seen that regular Dividends even
upon an increased capital, are readily within its ca
peity.
The estimates of the probable income of the Com.
pity onsde by the Managers has never been found
to error. and the one now submitted has been pre
pared with unusual caution. and is based upon a ton.
ease exceeding that of this year of only 14,956 tons.
The demand for wharves. cars, &c. is such as to
leave no doubt that this estimate will be folly equal.
led. and should the anticipated resusciation of the
manufacturing interests and Iron trade, be realized.
this remit will be correspondingly increased.
It will be seen that the rates of freight and tolls, on
which this estimate iv based, are materially higher
than those of the past year.
The managers have reason to congratulate the pro•
°deters upon the factzhat a satisfactory arrangement
has been effected with the Schuylkill Navigation Co.
by which the rivalship so detrimental to the interests
of both, has ceased. and a more just compensation
for the service rendered will be °hulloed.
Atwitter MeISOM thus scarred and itunihed by the
improved prospect of the business. is that of rennin.
ing perempuir ily and without exception the payment
of cash for all freight.

been anticipated in the foregoing estimate.
The increased rates have met with general *ppm
bation from the dealers, who very naturally prefer
regularity to the fluctuating Frees necessarily conger
quern upon cempetion.
The wisdom of these ammgetnenta. by which the
rivalry so long maintained between these works has
ceased. unnot be doubted by those interested in
either.
The low lama Toßecharged by the Canal Com.

anan . gement for this purpose earl now be effected.—
Since the last Annual Meeting, the le g islature have
conferred the Stockholders a power aot before possess
ed of istninClkonds of the Company at Market rates,
for the payment of these floating liabilities. Pullet
deeply interested in the work, and having arm and no.
abated confidence iu its success, have been found, who
are ready to supply the whole sum needed upon such
terms. To complete this arrangement requires only ,
the sanction and authority of the Stotkholdere. It is

relieved from emberrasoutent—its earnings win become

GOVERNORT 31.17016.110 F.
The eropied state of our columns this week,
will perish us to give o n ly 111 portion of the Gov.
ernor's Mesiage. I Upon our fret and fourth
pages, we publish the views of Gov. Johnston upon
the Protective Polley and the Banking . system.
The remainder 'of the Message we must newt.
sarily condense as much as possible. The following
ibsizaci, partially prepard by the Daily News ,
gives the ehtire aututsnett of the Governor Mei&
age.
The Governor gives al fell account of the dif
ficulties arising from the 'late date of the resigns-
lion. He however' hued the writs (somewhat
irregularly,) believing it Saver to leave the issue
with the people. The result proved that be wu
right.
.1
The Governor recommends laws to avoid the
doubts and' difficulties tich he encountered is
assuming the executive air, and urges also that
provision should be guide for filling the office of
Chief Magistracy in cue of the death or resigns•
Lion of the Governor and Speaker of the Senate.
The Asylum for the mune poor in the vicinity
of Harrisburg is slowly 'advancing.
,t5OOO have
been drawn from the rsury , of which 'boo
, half has expended.
The relief issue of Wink notes is next made
the subject of the Governors' scrutiny. His re•
marks on this subject arb sound.
The amount of relief 'Flotes uncancolled stul in
circulation on the 31st bf December,lB4B, was
$702.684. The Governor recommeded that ar.
rangements shall be made to prevent the rehisue
of defaced or dilapidated notes,, and urges, did
that it might be a fair condition of the renewal o
the charter of any Bank, that 'it shoul3, et love
interest, loan the ccminionwellth the means of
absnrding the issue of relief notes.
The Governor recommends the payment of the
interest on the, public debt—hitherto dischaigtil
in depreciated paper—iii convertible funds.. He
urges the refusal:of all moneys for public dues,
not convertible to specie,
He suggests a general reform in the manner of
adjusting and equalizinglthe valuation of property
for taxation. A full return of the products of
farm and manufactories) by the Assessors is ree
cortunendei, at least, triennially.
An examination of the revenues and expendi.
cures, he asserts, proves the necessity of increased
resource,: arid he makes the real deficit in four
years. $248,912 10.
The Governor then e tern into the considers.
lion of the tariff. His iews, upon this eubject
any be found on the filet pige of. the Journal,
and will meet the appro b ation of army Pennsylva
nian. 1
El
•1.149,780
The public debt of this State is $40,424,736.
ta i l
The'present liability of the Treasury is $2376,-
516 95. The asthma revenue for the current
year is $.851,900. T e expenditures are esti
mated at $3,716,600, making the estimated rev.
w ;r1
woe over the eX pendia' , $135,300.
It is suggested that • sinking fund for the at.
sorption of the deli be retied ; and it is recom
mended that banks aping for a renewal of their
charters should be tax edfor that purpose. Other
resources, also. may, it ks urged, be added to this
fund, and the debt be thus gradually extinguished.
It is urged that, in any new scheme of taxation
the farming interests shall be exempted from
further burthens. Tales to be just, should be
equal. There should be strong rounds to justi fy
tha exemption of any class from • fall panic. Wien
in the built eal of ;the Commonwealth.
h is urged that there Ishnokl ,be a settlement of
the accounts of the internal improvement fund ;
be advocates the compkition of the North Branch
Canal ; and recommends the adoption of measures
to avoid the inclined plane. •
On the subject of banking the Governor enters
at strati length. ' His suggestions upon the
banking system will be 'found on the fourth page
of the Journal
His ezeelleney recommends also that the eir•
culation of notes under the denomination of five
dollars should 'be prohibited under severer penal
ties. or that if their 'oppression be deemed
practicable, that our Own institutions be author
ised to issue them.
On the subj.ct of Ilabor, the governor com
plains that the law of the lest session 'affords 'the
laborer the liberty of working more than ten hours
a day; and says, "abotild the tegidature concur
in this opinion, it wonld • be proper to repeal the
proviso allowing of special contracts by parents
and guardian, for the le= of coiner* abdre four-
teen yam'
The Governor' ant4inces the adoption of the
common school system throughout the State.
Upon the slavery qinsti , , Johnston as.
es frankly and forp , the 'kw of Penn.
sylea ale. His psi and arguments by
which h e sustains It are sound sod vigorous, and
sill omit with the general approbation of the
sop's of the Keystone. He demotes, the
slightest invasion of the tights of the month, and'
recommends the mow decided opposition to the
extension of slang.
The message is a frank. bold, honest exposition
of the views of the Governor, containing mach
that all parties will admits, end wombat that
many will complain el. Its style is unaffected,
&guided and eeditable; and as a State paper, we
do not hesitate to my that it reflects great credit
upon oar Chisl,ollagististe and the intelligent
people who elected him.
