WILLIAM M. SWAIN,
'''.AZARIAH H. SIMMONS,
Proprietors of Me Ledger ;
;Z. JOSEPH S. SILVER, alias .'OAS,"
Agent for the Proprietors of Me Ledger.
The above Bill was smuggled into the Legisla
ture a few days before the &din:moment, at a time,
when they supposed - the hurry ofbasiness would
not enable the members to canvass its merits—but
only exposed it, but killed it, (or which they de
reeve the thanki of all the citizens of Schnylkil
county. This is the reason why ..Josey Gas'
thick that talented representatives ought to` he
sent. to the Legislature hereafter from Schuylkill
county; but thanks to our members, they possessed
both judgment and talent sufficient toexpose end
kill this infamous Improvement Bill. This is
another reason why "Jolty" is so anxious to
represent,Schuylkill county the ensuing winter tit
II • burg. HE bas talent sufficient to do any
dirt'' , work, his emyloyers in;Philadelphia desire.
This end's') is necessary, for the following
reasons:
First.—Thin Spring, "Josey Gas" manifested a
gloat intereit in the Coal Trade, and one Opera
tors, believing that he 1909 sincere, were honestly
disposed tor,roperate with him; but they soon
discovered that ••self, and ulterior" objects were
the mainspring of his actions—that be wait die
posed either to rule the Coal men or ruin them, if
he could, and consequently they showed strong
symptoms to cast him off; many refusing to have
any thing further to, do with the Association, so
tong as he was a member. The companies below
`and others interested acquainted with the charac
ter of tdosey," also rather tamed a deaf ear to the
wants of ,the Coal interest in consequence of his
connection with the Cool Operators. They had
no confidence in him.
Secondly.—ln order to gratify his spleen and
that also of his employers, the Ledger-folks, for the
opposition to that neutral Corporation Bill—for
it is nothing but a Coal Company in disguise—he
hes united with the enemies of the Coal Trade
and is engaged in writing false statements with
regard to the prices of Coat, with a view of re
ducing the prices and injuring the trade. These
statements first appear in the Emporium, a
Locofeco Journal of this Dormer, (which by the
bee, "hear has nearly written down, for they,
„we era creditably informed, have lost shout three
hundred subscribers since het, commenced writing
for it) and are rent to the Ledger, to - he re-pub
fished prefaced with puffs in their favor,—that is,
I •The Ledger menwrite puffs for the articles written
,by the;r Agent here, which he requests them to
copy below. To cover up this playing into each
other's hands, the Emporiuns.is made lbe scape
goat, end the impression is endeavored to be
created abroad that the articles mitten by the
Ledger-men's Agent here and published by the
Ledger-men- below, are sanctioned in th, Coal
;legion.
Third.—When the motives of the Ledger-men
and their Agenthere are known, their false state
ments, and malicious attacks upon tbeOmeiness
of this Region, fall harmless to the ground, and
Cease to do injury to the trade.
t' We hope the press in Ph iladelphis,partiett.
krrly, wilt show bow eery honest the Ledger is in
denouncing 'corporations. Hers the:character of
tbi paper is so well knowb, that it can do no
injary ;but in Philadelphia, where it is continually
denouncing other papers u di:Avant. we think it
ought to be exposed and 'ehowniup in its true
colors, by the press of all parties..

THE PEODLD. ADD TDEID. RIMED&
Io Our last parr` we alluded io the-Stumpt . now
making by ';some ,Locefocer leaders and the
. press
in endesvoriticti create the impression, that no
change can - be made In the 0 Traitor's Bill of
1846," on the ground that there is a Locatoio
majority in the United States Senate. Now. It is
exceedingly doubtful, to judge Gino the signs of
the times, whether • tbia majority Can be mode
available on any question that may tie brought
before them, from the Schisms and disunion that
exist among them. idatiton has taken , ground is
opposition to the extension of slavery, and stands
on the astir, platform with the Whig party on
litia question. Calhoun has taken ground against
.Benton, sod there .are other: elemepts at work
which may neutralize this majority, and throw it
in favor of the present Administration before
soother Session passes by. -
The following article from the Washington
Republic, the organ of Gem Taylor'sAdministra.
fiat), takes the same views with regard to the
people **king for a protective Tariff,' end
.even
poicta to a general"diesclution of the Locofoco
party
"To '1 speech delivered on the 13th ult., m
CleieefandeOhio, Mr.'Joha Van Buren declared
his belief that the Democratic Party, u a nation
al party, was dissolved. We imagine that there
is more truth than poetry in this announcement.
The only national party in 'the republic is that
which rallies about General Taylor. That is a
thoroughly national party. It avoids,. sectional
and local issues. It rejects merely sectional and
local interests. It seeks candidates who are avail
able because they are acceptable to the whole
people. It puts forth no obsolete dogmas, or
idle generalities for its principles; but rests con
tent with such measures as the people may de
mand; seeking to force none on theca against
their will. What the people desire within the
Constitution, and ask for io the forms known to
that instrument, „the people era entilla to have,
and will certainly obtain, under .the present ad
ministration. If they want a tariffless` ruinous
to the coal end iron ioterests than that of 1846,
they have only to ask for it. If they want its ab.
eurdities stricken out of the Sub Treasury law,
they will meet no obstacle from, the administra
tion. If they call out for harbor and river im.
provements, their call will not'be disregarded. If
it . is their desire that the condition of the Depart.
mints, past and present, should be investigated,
they will meet with no denials or impediments.
Relief they' will have, light they will have, benefi
cial measures they will have, to the esteht to
which they desire, them, as manifested t hrough
theirGonstitutional organs. '
This condition of things present a nearer ap
proachp to a pure Democratic Government—or
government based on the will of the people—than
has been known in this country for thirty years.
The people will ace and understand it. and will
rally shoot an ' • tmtion which seeks only to
gratify their y will find that they have
a President 0 le, when they have • Pre
sident only an give the people satisfaction.
It matters riot what the friends of such a President
style themselves—Whigs - or RepUblicans, or De
mocrats ; they will build their power.on the R -
pular will, , and the popular affection 'will be a
shield and a sword to them. Heine it is thantie
party which now supports General Taylor is na
tional. is united, and will be prosperus and in•
vrneihle. . ' t
But how is it with theLoooloco - pkity ! Ts
not, as a national party, dissolved t Must not the
true Democratic party—the . party composed of
the majority, and therefore rightfully entitled to
the prestige of the Democratic name—be recon
structed of other elements than those of the self.
styled Democracy? In the North, we see the
two wings represented by Mr. Van Buren and
Mr. Casa Can they ever come together again?
The junior Van Duren says it is impossible?
In the South, we find 'Mr. Benton suspected,
struck at, almostdenounceJ by the sole engin of
L.)cofocoism. We Grid him at dagger-drawing
with the other great champion of his party, who
scorns to own him as • rival, but aerosols upon
him with undisguised contempt. In every awl , a
of the country the Locorueo patty is enfeebled by
division, and has not • single stronrallying
point left for it. It has not a single principle or
doctrine to construct itsclf.upon. It has lost all
its thunders. -

esainined bot we are certain, something must be
wrung. Every body nearly is complaining, and we
know that the towns in our vicinity are purchasing
produce much cheaper than we arg. A well regulated
market, with reasonable restrictions, the people w tt.t.
hO
sustain—they have no'objection tri the Market House
itself—but the regulations under Which it is governed
seem to meet with the disapprobation not only of our
citizens, but of those who supply our Borough with
produce. We have understood that oar Market law*
are different from those of any other place. If so,
there is PO gond reason why it should be so—nor can
we set any reason why the people should be tuned
with an extra price for their marketing. We give the
objections as we heard them—and pregame that it is
only necessary for the Council to know that evils
extol to remove them.
P. S.—Since the above was put in type a meeting
of the Council has been held, at which a resolution
was athipted to hold a special meeting on Tuesday
evening next, for the purpose of receiving petitions
from the catzens of Pottsville relative to the altera
tion of the market laws. See proceedings ofCouricil

that you - were not awake, so strong -shad been the
impression left upon your minds, by the dream,
and the fancied occurrences you have passed
through.
A few nights diner, one of those fanciful dreams
entered into my head, and as I have a spare hour,
I will nista it in you.
I fancied I was transported by sone unseen
agency, to one of the highest mountains in this
county, when I could gaze o'er a !aria extent of
country, covered with beautiful green foliage, and
interspersed with deep ravines and lovely valley+.
The smoke, from a thousand Engines, Cutleries,
and Furnace', ascended in blue spiral wreath unto
heaven—and pence and content appeared to dwell
in the midst of the people, who were the inhabi-
tants of the country.
The voice, of song and mirth, arose from the
abodes of,the workmen, for poverty and her curried
crew, found no home in their dwelling.. "This
surely cannot be the county of Schuylkill, where
t!iicord, wrong, and oppression bath found a home,
and where honest pOverty is slighted !" Said Ito
myself. "Nor exclaimed a friend at my side,
this is a psooramic view of what it could become
and not what it now is. The people are honest
in their intention,and will support tbeitwernmen
in their effarts to ref abuses, but some selfish
men are never contented if they ere not at the
wheel for thealmighty dollar; they are continually
stirring up the worst passions of the mass, for their
own self aggrandizement.
“Gocue with me, and I will show pantie lead
ing spirits of discord,—those who strive to array
the Laboyer and Melchanie,against their employer?
—who lamer discoid and disunion, where they
should bring peace end happiness!4'
The scene changed, and there passed before me
meny faces, with whom I was familiar. and not
wishing to deny you the pleasure of gazing, with
me, upon them, I will try to portray their leading
characteristics as therpassed. The first who pawed,
stood some six feet In height, and was en aspirant
o er, with the pale cast of thought" big his thoughts
all centred upon himself'; although he tried hard
to keep that prominent feature in, back: grained.
•Some men are born to greatness; others 'hake
gfcatrleill thirst upon them," but appears tliat
God denied him both these essentials, but plated
in his soul. en extra virility of self-esteem,
to all appearances, supplies the use of thelother
qualities. Although not • prominent men, in the
political ranks, yet 011, from his facilities in
getting his garbled statements into print; and
from his Free Trade noticing. he has injured the
coal Trsde more then any- man in the Region.
'Tie true there is music in the name of silver;
but if the waking-men, knew' their own interest,
they would not be purchased by such small coin,
and particularly when composed of such base
material.
"What cracker is this same, that; dears our ears
danceol;perfluous breath'!"
. .
The man who advances Free Trade in this
county, undermines the foundation of that which
advances the prosperity and wealth of all clines
in the community i and my advice to all workings
men, is, to look upon all such men as their eneniet.
The next who stood most prominet„ ' time, a,
member of the Legislature—born in another see-.
von of the country, and raised up in the ranks of
the Federalists—he forsook his drat love, when.ho •
located in the Coal Region, and iwore he was an
old dsmicrati dyed in OA wool. and sympathised,
' deeply with hie oppressed country.
. ..
'Alas poor co u n try
, "Almost afraid to know itself: It cannot i
Be called our mother, but our grave : where nothing
But who knows nothing, Is once , seen to smile. '
Oh would that I could rescue thee from sore distress
I'd do it freely—Test by the gods If you'l elect me
To some fat - office—say the.Shertire I'll all your'
Fortunes make beside, my own."
Promises, are always the great circulating coin
of the office-seeker; and the Col. at all times, and
ill seasons, has any quantity at his command.
When 'he was elected to the Legialatuie, he
promised, before the Election, to secure the pais
sago of a Bill, for the protection of the Miners,
Mechinica; sad Laborers,—but what bedtime of
that promise, when elected 1 It was fOrgotten,
like all other promises, which aremarle' dema
gogue,. anti was never acted upon, till ' winter
when the Whikr secured its passake.l Y t, for
this, he his the assurance to Fall hi self the

"Sewer of

many a weary journey to make—and the sooner

will be for himself , and the less Shne.leather will

be His start in life proves but one fact,
and that is this,. the "twig is inclined" to loaves
and fishes, and it would be necessary to break the
trunk before it could be replaced in en honest
