The manner,in which the du- . ties o r th e office weredischarged--his suc e=sfutefforts to redeeni the character of our commonwealth—and the general commenda tion awarded him from erery`section of the State. exerted the jealousy of Locofocoi:m : and in order to destroy a reputation built up by bail and indefatigable exertions in behalf of the sinking reputation oi Pennsylvania, the Loeofocos brought fahie charges against him; the substance of which our readers are familiar with.. But they are pronounced faiscby a committee of the legislaTure, a ma-. jority of whom are locofocos which is enough to show that his chara cter is unsullied and that the duties of his' t'ffice have been dis charged with credit-to himself and advantage , to the State. ExPEDITION TO Citni.—Our readers gill remember that -some time since rumors were afloat relative to the invasion of Cuba by American citizens; but which, in coast.- queue; of the prompt interference of Presi- Ident TArLon, was checked. From present intficatiorr, -the rebellious spirit appears to have revived, and we learn from the Phila delphia Inlivrer that a letter has been re ceived in that city from New Orleans, an nouncing that an expedition =bunting in all to eight thousand men; and under the com - mand nfa gallant Kentuckian - , had already sailed in small 'parties, and from Round Is land-and different rainis in that neighbor hood, for Cuba—the object being, to land on some part of the coast not; thickly inhabited. anl then to make a serious :demonstration.= The expedition is said to be abundantly sup plied With means, and to include among its of icerss'everal able men from the Southern and WeQtern Sates.

TELE WLIEAT CROP.—The newspaper rep resentations respecting the forthcoming wheat crop in Ohio, Western Nevi York, Indiana.

The Apportionutent Bill has not been ft natty' acted upon by our Legislature. The Senatorial Districts appear to have created the, most difficulty, in ccmsequence of the desire, on the part of the Locofocos: 'to de prive a portion of ,the people of their just representation : and it is_ eery doubtful: in deed, whitfter a billtwill be upon.— The bill is now in the bands of a conference eommittee from both Houseg, and if they can' come to terms, we may possibly procure one. On- this snbiect the Lancaster TrAurre holds the following languaze, which will meet the approbation of every Whig in the State: - We learn from Harrisburg that there is a zeneral determination on the part of the Whig members of both Houses to stand by the governor in ie,.ard to the Apportion ment Bill. His course in relation to the first' bill Was such as to commend him to the increased confidence of the whole Whig par ty, and it is therefore right and proper that he should •be sustained by its representatives firmly and fully. Reated trials hafe de monstrated that in a f ull ;de the Whig par ty comprises a majority of the voters of the State. Their repr es entatives 'should submit to no hill that does not give them the chance of a represen*ion fully equal to that of their opponents. 'Their constituents will expect them to present a united front on this point. Since the above was put in type, the Con ference committee of the iegulature have re-, ported an Apportionment Bill, which has passed the Senate. It is quite is liberal as could have been expected from Locofncos. The bill makes Schuylkill a separate Senato rial District, with one Senator. As before We are allowed two Representatives. A DARK PICTURE OE CALIFORNIA. ? —MOSI of _the letters we have read, descriptive of life in the California Gold Region have painted it in the tnost, was colors. Ac cording to them there as no place like Cal:. ifornia. - no place - a -here life could be better enjoyed, or money be made more rapidly.— But we observe a letter, pUhlishett in the Lancaster Herald, which gives "life in Cali fornia," in its true eblors, and which no doubt speaks the truth. • The writer says the avarice and cupidity of the land speculators,' and newspaper editors; induce them to send home the most wicked reports concerning, the plenteousness of gdld. Seven-eighths of the people win) have gone to California, he thinks, have been egregiously humbugged. 'The land speculators he calls just so many land pirates. The necessaries of life are hard to be got at-any price. Thousands are , dying With :curvy and other diseases, which the newspapers, for their owd intermit, take never any cognizance of. Five out of every twelve are sick, and Out of every fire three either die, or are invalids for life. One-half of the people who go io Califomia, intend-- ing to return to the Atlantic States, in the I course of two or three years, will never re turn to ~ theif homes, the writer : thinks. The Gold Regions will' make moreWidovts anAorphans in one year than . did :the whole , of the Mexican war. There are more beg-. gars--more real misery - and poverty—in California . , 'he says, .than can be found in auy State in the Union.

Haastsatrso,lllaf 6th, 2850. E. , Rannan.—Derrr Sir : —The recent pub lication Of an article in a paper of this Bor ough, in the form of a communication signed " reflecting. on thecharacterof the friends and admirers of the Hon. JABIESCooPEB, and in *bleb the most unjost and false charges I are made against his brritrier. renders it ohs°. hitely necessary that thixe.who are not dis posed to keep quiet under' such falie, infamous black hearted calumnies,' should speak out, and should be heard. as well in justification of., their own characters, as for that of the, hohorable and respectable gentlemen ; who haim been so slanderously libelled. One of the gentleman alluded to, and whose remoteness and distant residence must pre chide him from being able to ieply to slander. calncnny. and detraction here, until months shall have elapsed, and of course not until it would be too late to effectually disabuse the public mind of anything publiihed to his dis adyantage so long before. I allude to that portion of the communication of "J" con tained in the following words: " If he (Senator Cooper) opposes biro (Mr. " Johnston) on the ground of intemperance, ." the same objection would have proved fa " (al it is said,' to his brother—nominated " and confirmed to a Minesota Judgeship, " and the same _objection woaltrbe the e.al death of -one half his Personal friends "and admirers Pennsvlvahia." How ungenerous and unjiist, thus to ns satiltan innocent man, not prment to defend himself. and who never in mill way injured the writer. hi regard to the charge itself, a gentleman who knows him 'well, authorizes me to state in the atLsence Of Judge Cooper. and as his friend, to denounce it in toto, and . promptly nail it, in all its len,s, , th and breadth to 'the counter, as base coin, as an unmilizated falsehood. He says, that, during 4 - six months sojourn in 'Minesota, last summer ants fall, he had a fair opportudlty of know ing, the 'personal character and professional standing of Judge Cooper, and but iterates the sentiments of the people there in saying, titt he was universally esteemed a,pertect gentleman, courteous and pleasant in social intercourse, as a man of talent, a scion& stu dious lawyer, a dignified Judge, and one whose temperance and general moral-deport ment, was never there impeached, and was unimpeachable. Indeed, says he, "from all my observation . of Judge C., both before and since his appointment, I can conceive of no more absurd, of greater slander, than to eou ple the allegation of intemperance With his name and charic:er !" The delegate of the Terrimry io Congress, or any other citizen of Minesota now east, no matter of what 'politics; wilLon inquiry. .rfro . mptly corrobo rate all that I have 'said to vindication of Judge C., from this uncalled for, undeserved, unprovoked, uns , enervus attack upon,hitn by " As to correspondent " J's " wholesale ns sault upon the temperance of one half ltis (Senator Cooper's) personal friends and ad tnirers in Pennsylvania, I will only deprecate and lament the angry spirit which can thus lead "J " to denounce as drunkards so large and respectable a body of the Whig Party of this State. Mr. Cooper's friends are good and sterling Whigs, long tried, and never Alund wanting tO the principles of the party. They are tole met with in every county, in every town, in every valley, amidst every mountain range, whereyer there are hottest. true-hearted W-hip.,s, `who admire - talents, sturdy independence,combined with courteous naanners, and unceasing laboriou. devotion to the common cause of us all. such as Mr. Cooper has ever shown a,nd displayed. But "his personal friends and admirers" are of an are to speak for, and numerous enougl to take care of themselves ; and it is super fluous to multiply words in their defence from so fold and false a charge. In conclusion,•allow nie to remark, that as a'-Whig„ am. Sorry the communication of Mr.' , J, was ever written or printed. I: can do no good—it must, I fear, du harm. I re. filtv - Tri.tr,'rtrre untbrtunate differences of opinion among Whigs, even when upon non essentials which:do not involve a jot of prin ciple; and I think many sacrifices ought ever to be - made, when union and harmony can thereby be secured. I believe that such also httve been the feelings of Mr. Cooper ; but what course he will feel called upon to pursue hereafter, in relation to any nomina tion before the Senate, while his friends in a lump, and his niternt brother especially, are thus denounced Rs drunkards, is more than I can answer for. t Doubtless he will exercise a_ proper independence, with all the *lights,_ hefitre him, such as Mr. Clay and other good. Whigs exercised yvhen they vottd, some . for, and some against, the nomination of Mr. Webtt as Minister to Austria. I am, as ever, thine. ORIANA." NEW RAILROAD LAW.-It is a very corn• mon practice, for persons to enter Railroad cars; and go on board steamboats, having no money to pay the fare; trusting,to the gen erosity of , the Conductor .or the captain to take them s to the place desired. Now, al though the law justifies the ejection of such parties, still the persons doing it would be subject to a suit' for damages, and much an noyance - experienced. The new Railroad law, of New York, however, obviates this, as far as Railroads are, concerned, the fifty fifth section being as follows: • If an'v passenzer shall refuse to pay his fare, is ;hall be 'lawful for the conductor of the train, arid thelservants of the corpora tion", to put him and his baggage out of the cars, um; no: unnecessary force, at any usual • stopping, place, or near any dwelling house, as the conductor shall select oa stop ping the train. , liouF PROTEGTION.—The. New York Le gislature have phssed a law which provides that every Ihmily may have and retain• a homestead of the value of $l,OOO, without the liability of king legally expelled there from for debt. Over and around this home the State throws its protection, £0 that a dis sipated father cannot squander it, :sickness and imvertv Cannot forfeit it, an attachment cannot tonal it, a mortgage upon it is atm! for nothing in law. The decree is'thaLevery family may have a place to live, aspOt that they can call their own, and this without wrong to any creditor,for every man in the Sitite Of New York will pow do business with a fair,'notificatioit 'that„ he 'cannot take his neighbor's homestead for security or' debt, unless the debts were contracted before this new law "was made. ,Thui freedom from terror by night and by day isseeured to thou sands,, and every man is enc uraged to that industry and frugality which may secure a home.

Mr. Meredith, Sec retary of the Treastuy, bas lately had several private intenrieWs with certain menthers of Congress, with! the view ' of arranging the preliminaries foi action, as well as of mato nng the skeleton features of a bill. The Hon. Mr. Pitman hasi for some time. been "squa ring" himself for the important crisis, artd it is understood that a Select Committee will form the basis lof his demonstration,--to which he proposed to refer the numerous pc!.. titiocis from the!tfoal Region. These peti tions, which - hicre, for some time past, been pouring in upon him in largesiumbers, would not, it is thought ,by many persons,-receive the consideration they so Justly deserie, by a reference to the Committee of `Vats and Means—a majority of that Committee beiri , 7 b Free. Tmdists. Hence they have been with held,-and no dotibt very properly—for a more auspicious time. . . The feeling on the part of Southerners, in regani to Pennsylvania interests, is decidedly more favorable ihan formerly. The Keystone State occupies icentral position in respect to Territory-. population, and business—and hence her influence upon the Political, Social, and Moral position, of the Union is second to that of no other State. Her influence is just now felt and appreciated in the Capital—she stands forth devotedly to the Union, repelling fatiaticism both in the North and the South. Besides this, the idea, withwhich thefriends of Protection were so lou,g rewire-a led, that the great Cotton interests of the South would be impaired under the operations of whole some Tariff-laws, has ceased to be advanced —and I can say positively, that of the large number of intaltgent men to be met in the National metropolis, who favor the policy of protecting domestic 'industry, the majority appear absolutely to befrom Southern States ! Southern sentiment =on this subject has un dergone a change within a few years past,— and there never was a shadow of reason to apprehend injury' to their Cotton interests from the Tarar "milky. England may do what she pleasei to raise cotton in her Colo nial possessions.; she may negotiate for sup plies In any other quarter—but what of that ? Do we not • knotil, that America is the only place, on this wide world, where the plant attains that fine perfection—that exquisite softnesc, and that ilky quality so essential in the subsequent 1 p ocesses of manufacture? Cotton is raised in almost every con ntrybut i , is not Amerim'ra Cotton ! lii aMI other coun tries the plant. ,exhausts its strength in the stock, or prematurely, runs seed the United Statts, by a singularcombination of season, climate, law land, sea-wind, the properties a( the plant run into the ballL maturiug it neither too early nor too late, but rendering the delicate fur so fine, silky and` elastic, that ii is; entirely peculiar to our,own country; All other cotton—raised elsewhere —must be mixed with Americau, otherwise it proves destructive to machinery, and can not be used with advantage and profit. These are facts. • I Nor is the production hereofined to one ' class or quality Of Cotton. AN e have belts of I s land, all over the South, and outh-western part of the country ; adapted cyan the rad ous kiods' known.: and . if ,Gr t Britain fi nds it profitable or politic to manufacture. she will always find it neteisary to buy American Cotton—at least, such surplus quantity as we may, from time to time, be able to spare:— for thoughshe has expended millions in vain efforts to release herself from dependence upon us, in this particular, yetthasshe never succeeded, and acter can: the laws of nature forbid it, and alike forbid all the world beside! He, who regulates the • seasons, the laws of storms, and mint, and climates,—who raises the sea, or lowers .the land in marshy penin sulas,—who elevates the lofty mountain ranges, scoops out the teeming valleys, or levels the broad 'prairies—He has allowed us , not only to raise the very best cotton, but also the very best potatoes, wheat, corn. and ' everything else calculated to render us a 1 mighty, a populous, and a contented people! - Such being the truth, the South is gradu ally, and almost imperceptibly, going into manufactures; , and the next th ing we shall I see will be a Railway-plan on a large scale. In fact, we already see it ;—the Railway and Canal system of this country is now creeping around the Southern bonlers, especially west wardly. The , most stupendous projects are being carried out, and once completed, the South will find markets for her cotton near at home. Her agricultural system is under going a change and reformation,—the most striking point of which' is, the tendency in favor of fete acres and thoroygh culture, in stead of many acres and imperfect culture. Now, Southern feeling., policy,'and interest ' may be stimulated by a Tariff. Great enter -1 prizes require stimulants—great Railway, and similar improvements, can - seldom be perfected, without a little excitement. fuss, and spwithition, if you please 7 are raised. These improveinents made, capon! will flow , about freely—public spirit and competition are awakened-:--and thus it goes!- ' Ctial and Iron are deposited at 'carious points all over ; the country—indeed, nearly one-third the area of the Whole country con: tains coal, ,while irou is nearly always beside or close by it. The South - and West are naturally adapted' for Railroads—the land being comparatively level, and--iatersperscd with broad prairies. With a littleprotection, Railroad Iron Could be made. in their midst, where living is cheap, and a portion of the enormous quantity of corn and Cattle raised in those quarters coup be thus .consumed. Many of the quarters, and -Western men nre aware of these views, and hence are really willing to lead a hand iu taalf of poor Dia Pennsylvania.. But action should be instant 1 taneous—positive, and.direct. Delay is almost 1 as bad as defeat •.—for while our Representa tives—from prudential motives, no doubt— are holding back, the market is entered by the British manufacturer, and contracts made for fitture supplies—or, rather, for supplies to last for a year er more hcnce. At least seveu millions of dollars, per year, are-Went to Eu rope for RailrOad Iron to supply our present and prospective qmands—aud if nothing is done in the meantime, this amount will very nearly double if the ensuing bye years ! All this money coQd be kept at borne, to be dis tributed among laixtrers, mechanics, and pro fessional tnenbtit, under the present cir cumstances, it'must be io thecoffers of Eng. land, to ~ sustain public opinion " in that quarter! : Gen. Sant Houston, who returned . several days ago from ,Teias, whither he was called by the illness of bis wife. , has left his mark there! The bouridary question between Tex as and New Mexich, had, no doubt, as much to do io urging the amiable genator's as the reportediliness of his wife,—for, hard upon his arrival there, a body of Texan troops was marched ioto the disputed territory, and eircible posseision taken thereof. The Uni ted States troopsvacting aßeeably to instruc tions, took a neutral poston! between the belligerent parties—'and thus the matter rests. This little' movement goes 16 exhibit Locofo co shrewdness !tor there can be no doubt note that a large portion of New Mexico will be consigned to slavery under this arbitrary and unhearil-bf month:lmre. The whole secret h tory or Texas, Ofiwhich Gen. H.. is the body and coal, reveals merely a deeply-laid scheme ' to bolster up §outhern• institutions.—and! verirure to santhat, is any affair requirinr , extraordinary shrewdness, sagacity, and bole 'teas, Sam flotfston, is the greatest statesman are have ever ',hid in' this country. -He is a splendid man -4-4 least the ladies all say so,; —tall, well-built,-strongly -marked features: limbs well rounded, -feet exceedingly small —keen eyes, and !mouth that speaks of firm ness., He is exdmdinglv fond of show}' dress, and mixes all! the colors of the - nunbow. When he fiesta appeared in the Senate, be wore upon binpairich Indian blanket—and his cloak is even now lined with flaming red silk, and; tasseli,t cetra, to correspond. He' is. withal, mtherVain in other matters--that is, he likes people to look at biro admiringly, atid be struck dumb with his appearance. His colleague, Gen. Rusk -0 ts companion in arms, fortnerly i l is one of the most learned and profound me in the Senate. His ap peamnce Ind mariner ire somewhat like our neighbor, Mr. B...ithe Prosieruting" 'Attorney. Unlike him however, the,:General is notat aft active --he takes his tint! " in all and seems to pick, up, and to have picked up, "knowledge " instinctively—witheut °kn. iag books; reading papers, or scratching with pens. He smokei his pipe—sits in 'a cush ioned rocking-chair, and , : • when he leisurely opens his mouth, the voice rolls out like small murmurs of thunder.' BUSINESS NOTICES.
