According to the Report of the Anditor General; just published, the condiiiem of the Financial affairs' of Pemsylvania is very gratifying.. Ttie . Report is made up to the first of the present month . , and it appears that after paying the .appropriarions of the two last - Rec-sions; amounting each to more than four millions .of Voltam', and applying the money belonging to the sinking fund, there - wilfbe left in the Treasury, after paying the annual interest, 'twenty-six thousand,. seven hundred and eighty-nine dollars, and thirty tWo cents. This condition of the Treasury insures the speedy Completion of the North Branch Canal—a consummation devoutly to' be wished. The people of the State and of the country at large, cannot but be gratified by a contrast of this condition of the Treas ury, with that ° exhibited a few years ago. Then; the annual interest was not regularly .paid—the stocks depreciated—the people groaning 'under taxation—and, in conse quence, public.and„private prosperity under a cloud. The presttit and future prospect is most Cheering. , : The result ought not to pass without. rendering credit to' .the,present Ex ecutive department- of the Government. 'Governor Johnston is entitled to gratitude for his efforts to create aiinking fund, and his labor to rmnspitata the Treaiury; and Mr. `Tall, the Lite State 'Treasurer, is notfto be 'forgotten arming the gratulations felt by the people. Justice also requires that proper credit should be rendered to the present Au ditor General, for theindustry and ability he has dhplaYed for several years past, in the .. management of that important department' .of the finances, the result of which is now felt by the , people. irrirE IRON BUSINESS. , One of the most interesting of:the many documents accompanying the report of the treasury, is a letter from 'Charles E. Smith, Esq., -of Philadelphia, on &,-prices_ and cost of manufacturing iron in England and in 'this country. It is.well knowat how largely labor enters in the manufacture of iron, and Mr. Smith shows that, while - in Great Bri tain the cost of labor in., the manufacture of iron amounts to only three dollars and sev- kitty-one cents, the Pittsburg, American, in remarking upon ( this -striking fact, says the American price nf eleven dollars, is what is zraid at the east, but at Pittsburg, even the ,ptesent reduced'prices - at one fourth greater, nay two dollars and seventy-fire cents, ma ting, the entire- enst of labor there thirteen dollars and seventy-five cents, or ten dollars • and jour cents more per ton_ than is paid Tor labor by the English manufacturers. The Pittsburg iron makers . are paying, therefore, nearly four times as much for labor Per ton ns their English and Search competitors.— The American says further, the mills of that , city average about 5,000 tons year. • The ' amount paid to labor. in England for the pro duction of - five thottsaad tons is eighteen thousand five handredind fifty dollars, while in Pittsburg.tin is sixty-eight thousand seven hundred and fifty dollars. Taking the ten Mills in Pittsburg (there aie twelve in all), , which average fivelhousand tons each an nually, there is' paid for labor six hundred and eighty-seven thousand five.hundred dol lars, while the lame. number of milli 'of equal production in England would .pay for the labor one hundred -and eighty-tie thou .` sand five hundred dollars, showing an excess of these ten mills alone, of-ore- fire hundred thousand dollars more bein, , paid for labor annually, than 'the production ,of the Fame *mount of iron would cost in England.

The people of the South have always re ' proached the North, with respect to her, manufacturing interests, that we desired to build up a monopoly at their expense; or, in _other words, that if they afforded us the pro ' tecticyn weask, they, being conramerv, would have to pay more_than, if they receivid the same kind of mariaactures from Earope. This has always passed foil sound argument. Bat what do they ask of us? They have always moaopoliied the slave interest, and -with the aid of Nonhern renegades, , have, . not only fastened it, time after time, upon, new Territory, thereby widening and in= creasing the field for ( their operations in Slave Traffic,—but thiy, have stopped the foresgn_Skot Trade—and for what purpose? Thilanthrophy, may have had something to do with it, but inieresi had at least a small . "laic!

We met the Hon. Thaddeus Stevens thete, who 'was engaged in a land-case„ be fore the Supreme Court, involving ` a very,, large amount. The claim for which he sras advocate, embraces nearly all the entire town adjacent to Hollidaysburg--(the name - -we cannot remember) and the general impres sion is that he will gain the suit. - His speech 'Nvas one of the most powerful efforts of for emir, leatuing and eloquence ever heard on any similar occasion; and drew together a large number of spectators, including, legal gentlemen, from the surrounding country. ,:il . lr. Stevens gave . notice, a short time since, of his intention to introduce a bill in Congress for the repeal of the Tariff of 1846, and the restoration of protective duties on those articles the manufacture of which is now in the _greatest state of depression. He will have this bill fully prepared in a few weeks, when we may look for the ne plus ultra of a defence and an appeal in. behalf of the great interests of the Keystone State. Stevens was asked at what time it was Et CO 121 83 00 5 50 8 00 2 00 th9ught Congress would adjourn. "That," said he, "will depend on the Cholera !"

We perceive by the recent news from Europe, that the tendency of cotton is still_ upward, and prices have ad vanced. This is in consequence of the im pulse given to British manufactures, by the Tariff of 1846, which was "revised and cor rected" by her British Majesty's BliniSters previous to being submitted and passed by the Locefoco party' in Congress!

CLAY AND THE TARIFF. ; .Mr. Clay, on Wednesday last, presented a petition in the United States Senate, from citizens of Berks County, asking - a modificrt tion of the Tariff, so as to afford adequate protection to the coal and iron' interests. He remarked that he had heard, with great regret; that,these interests, as well as other rilanufacturing interests in various parts of the country,• were greatly suffering. Of one thing the country might be assured, that until the agitation of _slavery was disposed oTone way oi.the other, none of these mter eits could receive any attention on the part of Congress: For himself, he must say that his mind was so entirely engrossed with this vital subject, that he had not, and - Could not give tiro attention to any other,subject, un til , that should be disposed of.

The delate from Nertr\3lexico, 14 • N. Smith, Esq., has grown tired of Waiiing to see the territory hc representi recognized under the constittition,"and he haa‘written a letter to his corts.tittients, telling therik that a combination, composed of the slave interest, is at work against them, delaying their claim to representation in the general Congresi - of the nation. This combination he ascribes to . < -a desire on the No of the slave interest to hold political poti4ir and equal weight in the Senate of the United States with the'rapidly progressing population and multiplying free States of the Union. To this•aim the rights and interests, and all the hopes of a rapidly growing and rich prosperity, which beck oned New Mexico into the Uuion, are to be sacrificed. He points rut the inconsistency of those whose continual cry is non-interven tion with domestic institutions, and yet who attempt instant inleryention with the prohi bition of slavery which New Mexico has adopted as one of its fundamental laws. He says: • "The connection with• this government Which you have been encouraged to look forward to as the beginning of your prosperity and improvement, has hnd its opening in three years of depredation, mks errible misrule and - military despotism.. You are left postrate that Texas may dismember and divide New Mexico, and Subject her to southern influence; that negrb alnrery may be introduced into the rem nant of te4itory that may not be appropriated to Texas; .und, finally, that the region thus secured to southern policy may become the stock on which to . engraft new conquests fmm Mexico. •To this whole policy , I know you entertatn the strongest Mr. Smith concludes by informing his con stituents that they can' expect nothing , from Congress ; , that the slave interest there is leagued with the slaveholding Secretary of War; and with Texas, against their rights ; that they must rely upon themselves. He recommends them to establish a State Gtrv emmeni, int erdicting slavery,. and prepare to defend themselves, and their territory-, in the full;faith that the MaSECS of the Unica' will rally to their \ support. The delay of COngress may yet cause the people of the territory and thos.e of Texas to come into an angry collision. MORE NEW COINS.•.

The party then went in quest of McGuire, but not having succeeded in finding him at his lodgings, they finally retired for the night. We may add that the suspicion which led to the above disgraceful proceedings, wa.s founded in error--to prove which the bill — of lading, exhibiting the amount per ton agreed upon for carrying the coal, was, produced. Etforts will be made to bring the rtellanactors to legal account, and it is to be hoped that they wilt meet their jest deserts.

Of Wheat I raised 25 bushels to the acre, while some of my neighbors did better. Indian Corn is not a safe crop, as it is fa equentiy cut Of by the early frosts.

Some sixteen persons WM severely burned, and several otherwise wounded. One man imparticular, whose name we could not learn, had both legs and an arm broken, end it was' subsequently reported twit lid died 'of the Injuries received.. This explosion was rendered tiddition ally violent end. destructive, from its, having corti municated with five or sii kegs of powder, which also exploded instantaneottsly with the Fire-Damp. It is always More or less dangerous to enter a mine —particularly such as are known to be fiery—on Monday morning: Labor being suspended on Sun day, the noxious gases accumulate the more freely ; and more especially Wken, as has been the case for several weeks past, damp and cloudy weather pre vails. Derangements io the weather always inter fere, more or less, with theventflation of the mines, and they are not unfrequetitly -filled with water . so far as to compel a suspension: of work in them. Such, we Immx, is the case in , the above instance. Too much care cannot; therefore, be observed in dispersing the gases upon entering mines on Monday morning, or in fact, at any time. " rirA Dti ring Burg,lary.—We learn that the office of Walker, Esq., at Mount Carbon, which is adjacent mills dwelling; was burglariously entered on Thursday night last, and about.two hun dred dollars stolen therefi'vm.
