'',;• - THE COAL TRADE. We stated a short time ago, that the canal Commissioners had removed the drawback of Li 7 cents per ton, on Coal passing through the Delaware Division of th e Permsylvania Canal. _The Managers of the Lehigh Company, who irde a corresponding reductionconditionally, we believe,at the time the drawback was gran ted, have now advanced the toll oh their Cas , nal, 5 cents per ton vr —making sin increase in • toll of 12centsper ton on all Coal that passes through these avenues' to market. The_rates of transportation will vary but littletrom last year. The quantity of Coal from this Region .ten be increiseiLloo,ooo tons over list year's The Delaware and Hudson CanalCoinpany tivilf probably_ increase their' business about 50,000 tons—and the Washington company, a new enterprise, are making arrangements to furnish about 150,000 tons of Coal the -*present year. These compaaies are engaged in building a large number of Boats, varying in capacity from 140 to 150 tons; for the 'navigatiom of the enlarged Canal, which will be ready in the Spring. With these 'boats, their Coal can be conveyed' directly to New. York, And all:the markets on -the Hudson river, without transhipment at 4oundout, which gives,these companiei increased facili ! 'ties at dimini s hed rates, over last year's business. Qur Canal and Rail Road Companies will have facilities for transporting about 200,000 tons more front this Region, than was fur niShed last year"; but the supplY will mainly depend upon the rates of toll and transporta tion charged by these companies. It is evi dent that the facilities forlumishing Coal this year, .is greater than the wants of the • market will probably require—and the only :t y .e Ira. in this Re gion at_ present; and if prictfsei in other sections, many of the disisters which con tinue to threaten the tiade, may be removed. . - CANADA AND ANNEXATION. ' / The feeling which lingers. in the Chadian - people favor.cf - 4naexatiott to the Ijnited States, stands a fair chance to,be re-kindled, when', in all probability, its effects will be felt more plainly,—By the last steam-packet from 'England, a de.s.patch was forwarded to the British GOvernoi-General of Canada, de . daring against "&l political change in that ' country, and Commanding him to resist to the ; utmost of hiS power, eitery attempt to sepa= rate 'it from Great Britain.", This despatch is couched in any other-but conciliatory 1 terms :.and instead - of checking • the spirit of freedom in the, Canadas, or calming the feel-, ings of the people, the result will , be quite to the contrary. That the British gov,ermiCent will resist all attempts at separation, is very plain. 'From an „extract of the St. John's, N. published in the Iliston Courier, we ;Observed that the feeling against the British', government is intense. Therefore, we be :lie-ye, a crisis in the affairs of Canada Sant no longer be averted. \9isaffection will name . diately be crushed, or ripened into rebellion ; ' there is nu Other choice, and ever• man must now take sides. c `_ - .)..tmexationist's must-fight of fly their doctrines are treason henceforth, and will be - dealt with -accordingly. It will nt once be seen by- the results of this Measure, how far the dire of political change really exists in Canada, fur the public feeling on .. this subject must burit out with an iiistanta ', aeons expression on the one side or tb4 other, now that the'British government have actu .l -'._ ally drawn thelsword.

The - follo - wing, among other resolutions, were passed : Resolved, That a change of the present ad valorem for a Specific duty on iron, one oTi the great Staples of Pennsylvania, would be vastly beneficial to our State at large, and that. our Representatives in Congress are earnestly desired to use all legitimate means .to effect that change in oar revenue laws. ResolvetL That we rze the principle of individual liability k charters, as purely 6einociatic, and highly beneficial to the public, aid that our Democratic Repre sentatives are hereby requested to vote for no bank charter that does'lpot contain the 'lndi vidual Liability' clause. ileplred, That we cannot recognise the loose and, irresponsible doctrine'of the Whig party in rard to the Banking: system, and their efforts to fasten upon the public a mass of issues, which; fromithe principle of their creation are only calculated to add to the de preciated. paper now in use, and to encourage the erec tion of Banks ostensibly in every mountain gorge, while practically these Banks will be kept in the broVers' offices of our large cities, the issues of which can be depreciated at the will of the Brokers. Bolved, That we decidedly approve of the doctrine of non-intervention on the Slave question. That much as we rret the ex istence of slavery we cannot so fur forget our duty as American citizens, recognising the Constitution of the United States as the-Su preme Law of the Land, as to interfere with the domestic laws regulating the right of property of citizens of our sister States. We are glad that our Locotoco friends have taken ground twainst the present iniquitous ] Tariff of 184 V-;, in the 'first resolution. A change fronfthe;erd ralorem system to specific duties, would accomplish something, but is ,generally admitted by, the candid portion of all parties, that the duties on both Coal and Iron, ought to be materially increased. Penn sylvania' interests are suffering to a greater extent than those of any other State in the Union by the operation of the Bill of 1846, and no Pennsylvanian ought to:;rest satisfied until a change is effected.

NAGLE was called 'to the chair. and F. B. KAESCIIER, appointed Secretary.' The following are the proceedings of the meet ing Whereas, The Members of. Company B. Ist Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers, who served in the war with Mexico, until hon orably dischar4e-ed, were among the first to offer their services to the ;Governor, (when troops were called,) to 'maintain the honor of the Country, and protect its interests on the plains of Mexico : and although their duty to their Country impelled them prompt ly, and cheerfully to leave their hona, their domestic- comforts and enjoyments, and all they held most dear, to undergo the hard ships and dangers incident;to a Campaign in, Mexico. And whereas, After the 'acceptance of the service of the Company by our late Governor, the Coo - Tony was ordered ;by he, Adjutant General of the State, to report to- Surgeon King, of the United States Army, in Phila delphia, for inspecticin, which order was promptly obeyed ; from whence we marched to Pittsburg, the place Of - rendezvous. The paymaster'of the United Mates allowed us pay only for the most direct route4rom Potts ville to Pittsburgh, nearly one hundred miles less than the allowance of the Philadelphia Volunteers, when in act we actually march ed one hundred mites further. And whereas, The Paymaster of the U. S. also refused to us mileage from the place of rendezvous, where we were mustered out of the service to Pottsville, the place of enroll ment, to 'Which' we were justly entitled by the Militia livees of PenOsylvania. And whereas, The said Company on their route from Philadelphia to Pittsburg, were obliged to pay the a,genta of the State, the; full amount clairne&fier transportation and subsistence, when in numerous instances the members of the Company were invited and partook of the ..bOtmtiful hospitality of the generous azapatriotic citizens along the line, thus showin,g that they required and consum ed but a very limited supply .of the subsist eiteefumished by the State. Justice to the Volunteers who so ,promptly rallied. around the Standard of their country at the call of the Governor of the'State, detnands that the amount of money paid by them for transpor , tation a n d subsistence to Pittsburg be refund- And whereas, We believe it to be just and right that those who felt it an honor - to re present the old Keystone, and peril their lives in their Country's cause, should receive the full mileage to which they are entitled by the Militia laws of the State; and believ ing, therefore, that injustice has been done us, we would respectfully pray the Senate and House of Representatives of Pennsyl- Tanis for.an investigation of the causes of complaint herein set forth. ; Therefore Resolved, Thai the pinCeediem, of this meeting be sent to The Governor, and `each member of the Senate and House-of Representativesalmd published in the papers of the County; ‘ • The allowing restihttion was offered and .

The; people are the only suffere)s by the opera-1 non of the practice : and itseenis tome that the evil is worthy their serjous attention. Mr.Roox's`-nsolutio" t ., inStructbig the Sena torial Committee to repoyt a bill embracing the Wilmot proviso, 'was• kid on the table, on Monday last, by a dc*ided majority. Mr. CASEY, Mr: Pima's, and several others from Pennsylvania. Whigs and Democrats, voted , in the affirmative. The principal objct these gentlemen had in view, was to lay aside for a time, that abominable fire-brand, so as to enable them to 'seize hold of the Tariff ques tion. In view of the large Locofoco Free 'Trade majority in Congress, it will be actu-1 ally necessary for our members, to do, occa sionally, a little harm, to bring about great good ;—that is, they must accomodate, as far 'as practicable, their friends from the South, to receive sufficient strength to rasa a proper Tariff. I never believed, after I knew the political complexion of the present Congress, that a Tariff bill to suit Pennsylvania, could be passed,—nor have I since seen anything' to change my mind. If, however, Mr.l:;/TMAN continues in the conservative policy, which', has thus far marked every vote and 'move meet he has made, he will gather together, in all probability, sufficient material to operate with ; and then, by:refusing to go with the' Internal Improvement men of the West and South-West, unless the sustain his Tariff 'schemes, I would not lie much surprised, after all, if he succeeded in accomplishing his ends. The Committee of Ways - and Means, as every body knows, is against any ehange of the Tariff,--General Bairor, the Chairman, -being one of the most ultra Locofoco Free Traders in the House. To refer the question to such 'a committee. everything could, be lost, an nothing gained. The numerous petition from the Coal Region hare, there fore, not yet been presented ;—nor will they be, until a clear field is prepared among the mass of matter in she House, for their re ception. \No further confirmations of Pennsylvania appointments, have yet been made. The case of Ali.:Uollector. Lewis, is exciting much in terest. 'lt is hard to conjecture the result.— I should jiill,ge, however, from the little I know of his position, that he will be . con firmed. What gives additional interest to the matter, is, that theLocofocos are 'squabbling' about it ! Col. PORNO, JANES BUCHANAN, and others, on the one side; and certain em issaries of Gen. • SIMON Castsaos, on the other side are, here, have been heitqor some time, and Nyill remain here, until the`matter is dis .sed of. or\ ._ . 5 -' , ica,. as colt : terns 4/m, in the State of Denteuirk ! if it is a reasonable question, I should like to know ['whether he:and Mr. BUCHANAN both, expect ct be returned to the Senate, and whether either "calculate" oil auxiliary support , ? , Mr: James JouNszoN, a brother of your dis tinguished Executive, is awaiting the action of the Senate, upon his nomination as 'Consul 'to Glasgow. Under the . present Tariff, the Con'sulate at Glasgow. is perhaps the most profitable post, of that ' , species," under the :.Govennent.. ;The heavy importations into ;this country of Scotch Iron, greatly enhance its value t,. present.. Mr. Joussros, I alp .sorry to say, is strongly opposed—and I re ;ret it the more, because rumor assigns the 'opposition against him to Mr. Senator Coors. Mr. COOPER is a gentleman of whom the, Whig pariv, all over the country, has long\ been proud: His talents are unquestioned— ',his education,- his travels abroad, his pasS :services in Congress, in the_ Legislature of Pennsylvania, and in the Executive branch of the governmentof that State—all qualify him for a great, and glorious, and valuable career In the United States Senate, His supposed opposition to Mr. JOHNSTON, Whatever per- Sonal grounds he may have to base it upon, ~ is a matter of regret to their mutual friends -,for, leaving politics altogether out of the question, Mr. J.,- is a meritorious oentlemaa - 1 rtentoying splendid - Literary rie"eomplitifi- - 'meats; much experience ofpractkal life, was actively eagagett in the service of his country during the'bresican War, and is a steadfast Whig.

The Capitol. on that'day, .teas ,literally surrounded with people, and 'the excitement consequent upoallie Tumor that he would address the Senate; was intente. There is a feeling here, in respect to this 'great old man, that cannot be described,—but hat understand so'mething of it when I tell you t g,en tlemen were crowding around the avenues of the Senate Chamber, on the 0 dap in question, eagerly pressing one hun dred dollar bills for scats in the galleries! ;:The Senate convenes at 12 o'clock, but at nine o'clock in the morning, every available seat had been secured. ~, At about 12 o'clock, (the galleries having all been surrendered to the ladies,) the dear souls gathered around the doors of the Sen• ate; pleading for admission upon the floor.— ' By a rule of the Senate, no one is privileged to enter the floor of that body—so even the soft'prayers of the ladies could not avail.— Senator Foort, ' however, finally appftred among them, and stated that he would' make a speech' to have the rule laid aside butupon, his turning. a ' rush" TraSmade,land the point carried ! . The fl oor bf the Senate was pretty well filled and of course no one dared turn 'em turn iint. But no gentlemen, except mem bers could get in, unOr any circumstances. The principle of :his-) compromise resolu lions, notwithstanding the loud opposition uttered against theist in the South, will be 'sustained, 'and the country thereby relieved of thesnost exciting and dangerous issue ever involved in the proceedings of its National councils:\ . , I The wegher, for a day or two past, hai been intent; :y cold.

A diluted 'amendment, relating to individual liability; 'Was then offered by Mr. Lunn, and adopted: _tie Senate still further diluted, or rat* neutralized this self same section, and,of course tkie'Honse concurred. p,vos then offered a section which pro hibits the company from declaring dividends on :their .capital, until the interests on the bon& is paid, which was also carried.. Mr. IClrtaliqy.a, of Lebanon, offered an additional section, requiring the company •to pay their bank standing taxes to the Commonwealth, which was agreed to after sortie squirming on :the part of the borers. Mr. KILLINGER offered another section, compelling the com pany ,to fix and publish. the rate of tolls every first day , of Jan., and not to exceed them du ring the ensuing. year, He supported this amendment in a speech of some length, and was .replied to by Mr. Binnar., of Philadel phia.' The House finally voted it down, and the Bill passed, after some Buncombe speeches on ;the subjedt of Corporations in general, and the defunct United Suites Bank in particular. The very. object, as I perceive from , the joizrizal, of the meeting of Cperaors in Potts ville,f was anticipated in Mr.' Ktuaxosn's prOpesition;but the House refused to sanction it. , The thanks of your Operatois, however, are due him for the manly stand he took in their favor.'
