- GEN. TAYLOR MID BM CLAY
Suggestions have been 'thrown out in some
quarters that Gen. Taylor's Administration *ill
be greatly influenced by Mt. Clay. Fleury eisy
may possess some influence with Gert. Taylor, but
we cannot believe that he will undeltete awn to
try to induce the General to yield to tda, opinion,
nor do we believe that Gen. Taylor will allow any
one to inactente his Administration., Gen. Tay
lor has determined to administer the affairs of
Government for the good of the people, and will
not be moved by moons! predelictione. He will
call around him 'the ablest men of which' the
country boasts, whose advice, when necessary, as
is done in all cases, be will seek, and upon their
combined, judgment we can safely depend—direct
ed as they will bo by the most patriotic motives.
We believe that anier,Gen. Taylor this country
will be placed upon its pristine . basis, and that
his adrninistrati - m will more closely • resemble
that of Werbington than any of his predecessors.
The citizens .of this Republic will yet have oc

PRENCII ASSEMBLY•
The, motion for the dial lotion of the Fret.eh
Assembly, as will be seen by our Foreign .news,
has been carritd by a small .majority.; The ma
jority of the membets of the Assembly ere known
to have been opposed to the election of Napoleon,
end therefore desire the dissolution, that a new
one may be elected. We consider this move en;
but a favorable one for the welfare of the Repub
lic, indicating strongly es it does, .the overthrow
of the French Constitution. In the election of
a new Assembly,there would be say ws rm arca
between the adherents' the President and the
Republicans, in which the former would in all
probability succeed, and obtain en Asseinkly ao

B. BANINAN
ATTORNEY GENERAL.
The press of this State are a lmost unanimous .
in favor of the selection of Josiah Randall, Esq..
of Philadelphia, for the office of Attorney General
of the United States. There are some 7 others, of
course, who have thcr preferences; links* fir as
we are able to team, jodgiug from the tone dour
cotemporariee, we are led to infer that Mr. Ran.
dell is the moat prominent candidate. His well
known ability and steadfast adherence" to Whig
principles, point to him as the man fur the station,
Whilelbe press are discussing the merits of their
respective friends, we are pleased to observe that
no harsh expressions are indulged iii, but their
claims cooly urged. The time for the selection
of the Cabinet is almost here, when we shall see
whose exprctations will be realized. Should
none of those whom we expect to see in the Cab
net,—notwithstanding we think the claims of
Pennsylvania are imperative—be selected, we
ehalrbe satisfied, believing as we do, that Gen•
Taylor will select none but three whose qualifi
cations and legislative experience "are such that
we can rely with safety upon his judgment.
DEMOCRACY AND SLAVERY
At a caucus bf the Locoloco members of the
Kentucky Legislature, held at Fran k fort on the
23d alt., the (allowing resolution was unanimously
adopted : ,
Resolved, That While we do not deem it good po
licy for the Democrats of the Legislature to unite in
caucus in supportipg anv partidular individual of their
party for the office of Senator of the U^ited States,
on the let proximo. yet we are determined not to
vote for Fleury Clay on account of bin Ffter. Sou.
PRINCIPLES, and, as wo understand, his EMANCIPA
TION TENDF.NCIES ; nor will we support any other
man, whether ‘Vhig, or Democrat, who is known to
entertain similar views on these questions of National
and State policy.
It appears, that Leeafecoism, and Slavery are
becoming synonimous, term■.
In the Arkansas Legislature, the Low:deco party
hava shown one of their magnanimous and
liberal traits of character, by changing the name
of Van Duren County to that of Cass County.
In the House of Rsresentatives, tin the 10th
inst., a petition was pr. settled askimilfor a Bank
at Minersville ; a petir n Was also presented from
Schuylkill County, fo the abolition of Capital
Punishment, on the same day. A petition, twen
ty-one feet in length, for the protection of Miners
and Laborers, has also been presented. The bill
to erect Danville, Columbia County, into a Boro
was taken up and passed.
In the Senate, on the 14th inst., Mr. Overfield
presented a petition from Schuylkill County, for
a Bank at Tamnqua.
On the same day, Mr. Oaterfisld reported a fur

GROWTH OP READING.
Three hundred and forty-eight new buildings
have been erected in- Reading the last year. The
buildings erected in-that city during the last few
years, are as folios's/I.—ln 1843; there were 98
erected; in 1844. 120; in 1845,184; in 1846.
248 ; and in 1847, 360. 'lt will thus be perceive

it is now reduced almost to a certainty that Caleb
B. Smith will be in the Cabinet, as Foot Master

correspondents, to give our readers the prevailing
news in regard to this matter, for what they are
worth.
rr The Union.—The Baltimore American
well remarks, that ' , the idea that a dissolution of
the Union should be regarded as a remedy for
any political evil, when in fact it would be the
consummation of the worst of's!l evils, is anal.
ogous to that which prompts the morbid mind to
contemplate suicide as • means of deliverance
from the troubles of the world."
rir Lancaster Prison.—The County Com
missioners of Lancaster, have adopted a design
by John Haviland, for a new County Prison, to
be erected immediately on the ground, west of
the reservoir, at the head of East King Street.
The prison will be double the extent of the
Bests county prison, and will cost $102,000. It
will accommodate 80 persons, with an enclosure
capable of accommodating 160, and will belie's•

A gentlemen arrived in New Fork direct from
California on Monday . last, having left Ban Fran•
deco on the 10th of Pecemberlie came by way
of Newland, Afezieo, and Vera Cruz. and per
formed this long journey in GI days, the whole
cost of which wee upward. of $7Ol. He brings
intelligence from the gold Region, thirtyfour days
later than the latest received before.
The gold region is now understood to embrace
• territory a thousand miles in length and three
hundred in width. The gold is distributed over
this vast extent, though - by no means equally,
some parts being of surpassing richness, while
others are comparatively barren of the precious
metal. No limit can be fixed to the cumber of
men wbo may find employment in extracting It.
or to the length of time for which good dtgging
may be profitable.
The business of mining has nothing that is
agreeable, except the gold. that it sometimes—not
always—products. In short, it requires the
hardest kind of labor, such as only strong toilful.
tutiona and muscles indurated by toil can under.
take with a prospect of success.
A man of the right sort, to respect to health,
strength and skill may, with fair luck and herd
and steady work, obtain three ounces of gold on
an mirage per day. It is not often found in
lumpy. Still the gentleman Mr. Atherton, from
whom this news has been obtained has seen one
mass weighing 7 lbs., and .friend of his bad seen
another weighing 21 lbs.
One man a blacksmith, had got ten thousand
dollars worth in three weeks. ,
There was nothingdning at the mines when
Mr Atherton left, owing to the rains, it being
the rainy season! Mire was not much sickness
in the diggings, no robberies and no disturbances.
GOoil Wading can be obtained in San Fran.
eine at $lO per week.
An extensive placer has been discovered in
Oregon, end it was reported at Sin Francine
that all the inhabitants of Oregon City had gone
out to try their luck.
The whole value of gold vyttich has been ga.
therm! in California is estimated, by those ae...
(painted with the matter, at three millions of dol
lars, two of which left there in various ways. and
the remainder is on its way to the [Toiled States.
Real estate was selling at 840117101111 prices—
lota 25 yards square trolling fo , $lO.OOO. Pro
visions were abundant at San Ftancisco and the
diggings.
Great as the discoteries of gold are, they are
equaled by those of quicksilver. That metal is
found in various parts of California, and the
quantity is as abundant es it is in the mines of
t h , " l .
About two, thousand emigrants bid arrived in
California from Oregon, the Sandwich Wands,

raLsstsstpri AND SLAVERY
An immediate and extra eeuion of the Legials
tore of Mississippi is demanded by the citizens of
Hancock county. in that State, (or the purpose of
enacting laws prohibiting the future ingress of
slaves from the border States of the South. , In
their petition to the Governor, they represent that
the States of Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky and
Missouri, where slavery has ceased to be progtable
from the uncertain tenure by whielialaves am held,
are now throwing an immense black population on
the extreme Southern States, which is destined
to increase with iamrhse rapidity. To avoid
this result, they propose to compel the mare nor
thern of the slaveholding States to retain their
slaves within their own borders.
