THE GALPHIN CLAIM.
-There is much discussion - in the newspa
pers, just now, concerning the allowance by
the Secretary of the Treasury of interest
upon a claim, the •principal of which was :
paid tinder the direction of the late Secretary.
.Mr. WALKER. The claim is known as the
Galphin Claim. It is an old claim, dating as
far back as 1773, and it derives its guaranty
from a !ft-ant stipulation between the Gover
nor of Georgia •on ,the rne_ hand and the
Creek and Cherokee Indians on the other.
-
It appears that GALITITN, With others, trad
ed wi#l„,the Indians and held a lien on cer
tain laN,s,as security for debts ; that by the .
treaty of iii 3 these lands were ceded to the
British Crown; that the British Government,
consequently, became responsible to GALPIIIN
and his associate traders ; that all of them
er:ept Gat.rntrt receirecompensation. prin
cipal and interest, froro "ie British Govern
ment; that the claim of GAhKIITN was reject
ed-because he bad taken part vv`ith the Amer
ican Colonists in the reColuti ary war,
\
while - his associate traders 4lher to Great
. Britain. Gar..Pnin's claim Was prese ted to
i the State of Georgia, and its justice wa ac
' linowledgetl;. but it was maintained that .- 1
asmuch as the Government of the - . Unit • .
Stites, after the war of independence, suc•
ceeded to all the rights 1 7 1 f the British Crown
over the public lands, the application for
payrnent of the elnim should be made to that
Government. The application was accord
'ingty'made to the General Government; but
such is the delay attcndiiag all applicationi of
this kind, that no final action was had upon
it,uatil the year 1848, when Congress passed
an act by which the Secretary of the Treas
urV-Was —authorized and required to aura
ite and adjust the claim of the late GEORGE
Gamtri t •under the treaty made by the Gov
ernor of Georgia with the Creek and Chero-
kee Indians in the ykr 1773, and ,pay_ the

LEDO - E amenix, executor of said GEORGE
The interest- money has been paid, and it
is this about wifich the opponents of the atf
miniStration are finding, fault. The payment
of the intneg was proper—at least. according
to chief justice TANEY, "there is no statute
,of the United States that forbids the Secre
tary of War, or the accounting officers,iio

that interest is justly due to _ But this

HAREISDCRG ANil READING RAM ROAD.-
A bill had passed the
. Legislature of this
State for the construction of a Rail Road from
the , city of Reading to Harrisburg, where it
would connect with the Central Rail Road.
There is, however, some opposition manifes
ted against the proposed road,:by many who
believe iliat ir the Reading and Harrisburg
Road shall be constructed, it will tap the Co
lumbia or State Road, and the business which
is now transacted by that Road would he in
terfered with by the new road. It is a mat
ter of serious iraportan6, that our State rail
way be not tapped by private roads. In view
of the undoubted.right of all sections of, the
State being entitled to the advahtages of pub
lic iMprovements, which are anxiorts and able
to maize them,
,probably it would be well to
sanction theni, with the proviSo, however,
that a reasonable tax upon the tonage be
posed for the benefit of the State, upon all
improvements calculated to interfere with
the State works.—ln fact, a small tax upon
the business of all cornpabies would be as
just as the taxes upon the occupations of the
people of our State.

ie-rstates that this unfortunate man, so far as

reconciled to his fate. His demeanor is that
of a persOn,endeavoring to solve some great

tnuch, and has recourse to . many &oaks and
newspapers.. His family visit him almost
daily. It is to be regretted that some of they
paperzi persist in circulating the most scanda
lens fabrications in relation to the priconer's
past history, and also in relation to his fatui- .
ly. They, at least, are entitled to sympathy,
and should not he 'visited by additional tor
tore. The statement. that a . 'daughter of
Professor Webster hail been rendered insane
i by the Conviction and sentence of her father,
is totally destitute, of truth. No such ca
lamity has-
,befallen this afflicted family.

I UPon them with-sultmissioa, patience, and a

moved from that despairing an,gvish which
produces insanity.

embodying the principles of the Report of the

out of slavery. This amendment provides
that the motion shall not be so constructed

ben tmitor tootle party will prove an apostate
to the other) and in the House by a party
vote, ryas sent to'the Governor for his eon
curreace. ;The manifest injustice of the bill
wns so abhorrent to every member of the
Whig party, and the outrageous attempt to
depnve them of representatatton, so palpaple
that it induced . some of the lending Whigs of '
the Borough, to call a mass meeting of the
citizens tol express their sentiments on the
subject. The meeting Wag large and enthu
siastic. My very able and eloquent friend,
John C. Kunkel:Esq., enchained the atten
tion of crowded audience, in a profound
ardl brilliant argument, showing, at length,
thd outrageou.s fraud attempted to be com
mitted on the Whig party by the iniquitous
tneastire. 'After Mr. K. had concluded his
most able !spqe,ll). a motion was made that
the chairman and officers of the [fleeting be
a committee to wait on the Governor, and
kpresent to his Excellency, a Copy of .the Res

sage of the measure, on the ground of the un
ceniconstitutionality and unfairnessof its pro
vision's ; bin as you will have this able doc
ument, which is now in - press, almost as
soon as you receive this letter, I leave you to
judge for yourself of its merits. The-Loco
focos. in 'the House, as usual, refused, to
i print any copies whatever. '
Mr. James AI. Porter, after making a mo
tion to print the ustvlaumber of copies, vo
ted againit his own motion, because; as he
said, he hatlno idea of the Democratic party
disseminating Governor Johnston's opinions
at the expense of the State,- but the Whig
party, as: they have had to du before, are
bringing it out on their individual expense,
so that th.is mean effort of the Democracy to
prevent its circulation, will prove abortive.
' In ,the Howse the. Bill relative to the.repeal
of the . Act or 1847, coaceruing kidnapping,
&.....—., was finally passed by nearly arrty
vote. Many of the Democrats from 'Free Soil
Counties, voted against the measure,• bin
without avail. Mr. Buchanan demanded its
repeal as "a concession.to the South, atid the
party were willing to do his bidding. The
refusal to pass the Tariff and Wilmot Pro
viso Resolutions, were all the result of his
dictation: Pan Jimmy; be may bea Solo,

tainly they add greatly to 'the appearance of
a place, as well as to the Comfort and health
fulness of the inhabitant!. They can be
procured with little cost and will grow with
little care. '
The voice, of the populace in the crowded

the strength and sullicieney of their own re . -
sources with la reliance which seems sublime.
Progress, acCumulation, gain, are everything
with Us; and, in the engrossibg love for
these, Nature and her large, provisions are
forgotten. There is a moml as well as a
physical utility. 'This fart should not be
overlooked amid the excitements of 'the hot
pursuit of gain. Shade trees Minister to a
moral good; as well as to a practical',
usefultiess. They give to a town a fiesh

Electric Telegraph. This is, indeed, wo n -.
derful a g e.!—it is true the dista ce to

ling the attention of the Town Council and
citizens of Pottsville to , the wretched man-,
ner in which the telegraph 'wire isiput up
through the streets of the Borough. The
poles or posts are espicially referred io; they
are light, crooked,- rough, and badly Put up,
one . leaning this way and another, then way,
and in fact, any:way hut perpendicular arid
in straight lines; lW iyery temporary, man
ner in which they are. put into the !ground

eases'dangerhus to persons and protinrty—
a bole has been made in the ground ( routing

between the line as int up through Danville '

W a h fancied that when titnehaictreered up
the animosity engendered between the differ
ent political parties during the last campaign,
that peace and friendship would time more
resume their sway iu.our County.
But it appears that we "calculated without
our host,' for, althoUgh the bitterness of
party spirit was co% ••red over by the band of
tune, it was nut forgotten. In Oolitic.% it
appears that there eau be no sunshine, for
very many times the Very order of Nature is
reversed, and we find those. who are bog s od
together by the ties otesteern and friends ip,
in political matters hate each other with', a
hate that devils,luvel and admire!, In the I
last political Campaign, the present modern I
Democratic party gathered all the ,material
they could, from. varjontis quarters' to defeat
the gentleman Whose name heads this arti
cle, and yet all Would have proved unavail

Was there any hartit in this? We fancy not.
Din stilt it appears that his enetrues are like
"Ilanian•whom the-Kings delighted to 11°-
