It 3 Cause. It is • notorious' that a feeliog'of hostility prevails in certain portions olthe Stet e against Philadelphia. and for reasons perfectly plain and as perfectly excusable. Philadelphia has always manifested a want of sympathy, bor. Bering on a spirit of jealously, toward pub lie enterprise or any improvements in other parts of the State, and the ill feeling enter; tamed on their part is but the.reciprocal and Legitimate effect of cold indifference on hers. The Press is mainly responsible for this state of feeling. It has unfortunately become trammeled by various investments, until - its independence is entirely: gone, and it fears to speak out upon any subject, not palpably Philadelphian, lest some corporated monop ly might he - offedded, or its opinions clash with t he. in terests of some purse-proud com pany. As to !Meal, there is nothing wautiog —though, in that' , respect;we think many other portions of the. State will compare fa-_ vorably with mein. But ot what use is talent rabbet! of its right of speech ? There are some few exceptions, but they are con-' fined principally to gentlemen who have re moved from the country, and who know how to appreciate othe r portions of the State be yond the brick and mortar of their horizon. Like the late South Carolina StalCSl2l3ll, all her views, however good or great, are tinged with the 'color of the soil from which their Author originated. As an instance, the Pres ent is rife with discussions of plans for Lap ping the ,great Coal Region of the State, and of drawing ;off the trade to New Mork and other places ; —a trade ot vital interest to Philadelphia, 'i , hich has built her .up in a great measure, and upon which she is now dependent for allarge share of support—in which 'she has heavy investments at_stake, and which others are endeavoring to'secure for herro-the general advantage of the State, while her press have refused to give a word of information On 'the subject and Are content to let her citizens find out, throu,gh - the coon try papers, what is doinger what should be done to avert the threatened hlow at her in terests. 3E0,000 V)O,OY, •300,000 aut,i.a. 525,000 21 OM t 0,1 Oil *1449 011) 81,0100,00 u X 9.01% :r, Suo lU;ix.l MEE Perhaps the public are reprehensible for this apparent neglect on the part of the Press. it May be th i ef will not tolerate certain liber ties of the press ; we know not; but certain it is, that her gapers hare always been charac terised with: the same cold indifference to ward every ,earprise originated elsewhere than withinl,-the city limits, and have, either discouraged them, or mist is still worse main tained a dogged silence on the subject. Just so it was at the first pCojection of that'enter prise she now puffs tonne skieS,and which has poured into her lap the enormous proceeds of the greatest :mineral :wealth of the• State.

We hare been led to these remark from the com plainti. of a writer in 'a Philtdelpbia paper against this hostility of feeling toward the citY, ou the part of other 'portions of the State, and we wished to show that it was bui just and natural. • T 01,1041 ~f:..ig6 Within a few days past several arrests have been made in Philadclphia and New York, of individuals passing counterfeit Mi ners' Bank bills of the denomination of ten dollars. On Saturday, a man named Daniel Tarr was arrested in Philadelphia, and upon examination of the premises where he was caueht, serval thousand dollars of counter feits upon the Miners',Rottsville) Lancaster and Harrisburg Banks were found secreted in an old stove pipe and a glass bottle. Two otheri were arrested on the nine day in the city-for a similar -offence. Seven persons were also arrested in New York, a few days previous for a similar offence. The, suppo sition is that these swindling operations have been laid out upon rather an extensive scale, and according to the diielosures made lieremme two month= siarr.,and the pretin- Jed revelations of Rose on S,sturday fast; this,place has bets a rendexiquaßno int:on siderable importance. Since the abovewas in. type, we liters seen one of the counterfeit ten dollar bills'of the . diners' Bank. The appearance of the note is a little blurred and the execution not so good as the* genuine, 'The best mode however to detect :it is to measure it with the genuine note--the body of thacounterfeit between the end vignettes, is about one-eighth of atr.,inch shorter than the gent:int . !.

The people, in vb dog for an elective ju diciary, not only'aimed at'a curtailment of Executive power, but re pudiated the absurd usage off calling in a, stranger to preside in their Courts. To the objection of 'the present low salary of this class of Judges, Ave would remark, that it applies with more force against the stranger 'than the resident Judge , Whether the above was intended to, cast a slUr upon Judgelidder or not: we are una ble to state—as ii is well known that Judge Kidder never did reside in his Judicial dis trict. It is evident, however, that the writer has materially changed his views on this sub ject since the last election. • • The following is from the Empotium, which under all the circumstances, is of so shameful and indecent a character, that we had it • necessary to lay before our leaders all the facts of the case: "Offer next Jiage.—We are sorry to learn that it is not. expected the lion. LUTE= TraDDER will remove into this -Judicial Dis trict and become anandidate for the President 'Judgeship at the next fall election. Who wilt be selected as the Democratic candidate we haie not learned, but we hope that he will be an honest, able-and fearless man, and that he will be cordially and successfully supported. We do nottithow,what oar Whig friep:ds will do, but we believe they have given up . the idea ,of importing a candidate, who, would aluaost certainly be defeated.— We think Mr.• Comly, a very worthy man and sound lawyer, no doubt, has .shown a good diwretton in declining the'empty honor of' a nine months' office holding in Bchuyl kill county, to befollowed by a defeat by the people at the ballot boxes." The facts are simply these. At the last September Court, the Hon: Luther Kidder informed different members of the bar, that it was his intention to resign immediately after December Court, and that it would be advisable for them to select some competent person, who 'would be satisfactory, if possi -ble,-to all, and then to unite in--recoMmend ing him to the Executive,'as his (Kidder's) successor.. There was, but little action taken upon this suggestion, for alt the members of the IXir, as we are informed, were:partiaLto the present incumbent,. and would have-been pleased if, his Honor, Luther Kidder,could have remained ; but when at the December Court,• he positively declined remaining in our county, the different members of the bar, at the recommendation of Charles W. Hegins, Esq.,,.juir!ed •in"petition to his Excellency, W. F. Johnston, in favor cif Joshua Comly, Esq., of Montour county. Various members of the legal profession eonversea with Judge Kidder and the differ ent - mem berg, of the 'Locofoco party, about the selection, and they all expressed them selves well pleased. ' This satisfaction was apparent the first week of Court ; the scenechanged the second week,and two Locoloco members of the bar, Messrs. Hughes. and Palmer,wiso it is believed are the writers of the above articles, re liked to sign the petition: The reason, why they refuses, remains a *rot ; but if We are permitted to guess, it was because Mi. Comfy was a 'Whig." Mr. Coolly was a passive agent in this businesshis name was sug gested by a member-of the Locofoco party, and approved by Judge "Fidder himself—and ~t herefore the attack in the Emporium is a gross outrage, indecent, and ungentlemanly, to say the least of it. We are not aware Ant Mr. Comlev, has declined accepting thelibraination—but if be has, it was caused solely by discovering that there are lawyers practising at the bar, who, from their uncortenua conduct in this respect, have shown that a gentlemanly incumbent might be made to feel unpleasant. At the late election, in opposing the elec tion of Judges. by the people, (for these democrats and friends of the people, did oppose it most strenuously,) they declared that we had no members of the Bar, in Schuilitill. county, who would accept the Judgeship, who' were capable to hold the office. We pronounced the assertion then, as a libel upon our Bar,and we would pro nounce it Soagain whenever uttered—but the members of the Bar themselves agreed to invite a candidate outside of the district—and these very men who opposed Mr. Comfy, we understand, have-heel endeavoring to pre vail upon Judge Kidder ,to submit his name fur a re-election, kaowing that he' also lives out of this district. ' The4eople, therefore, can draw their own COticlusions as to the motives -which prompted The attack upon Mr. Comfey,TrOm that quitter. For ourselves, we regret that we are to loose "the valuable services of Judge Kidder. We have frequently had to commend him for his firmness on the bench, and particularly for his determined opposition to all kinds of riotous and• disorderly conduct, and his great hostility to those pests or the Region, the GrOg-shops. ' • . EXPLANATION. The " Alining 'Register " of course takes ground‘against the projected Railroad to Phil , adelphia. This Was to be expected. This pa per was' gotten up op the Cake, Cameron, Hughes, and Silver' branch of Locolocoism, in opposition to the Emporium, the editors of which beingrace-seekers themselves, stood in their, way, and of course used the organ to advance the interests of themselves 'and friends.' This paper is edited by a .person known by the name of "Anthmx,"" Who after a brief sojourn here, where his hostility to evety thing in theeounty became hu roania fest, and his abuse of our peoples° constant, that public opinion absolutely drove him from the county. He always made it a point to oppose any thing the trade advocated here, sad any suggestion Made by the trade which appeared in oar columns, was sure to meet with lostility from that quarter. He seethed desirous to create the impression that he was the only person, who knew anything about the trade—that* alone could cure its evils —and if our operators - did not receive his views, of course they were nil pronounced a set Of ignoremsusts 'Who did not understand their business, !"I I This explatlatimit me - have modest the re titiest'asiventfacirei4eitii,aboY, :those residing . abroad, that that paper does',not speak the benlimeno of the people of the re gion—and we would suggest to the proprie tors, tbstvoless thefsoon cut loosefroinhim, they Mo will soon Ale compelled to .follow their editor, or seek to t patronpge froin be yond le limits of Schuylkill County.

To indicate how ' the present tariff oper ates in one department of mechanical labor; we may instance a fact, that we find stated in the New York' Courier and Entuirer, sig nificant of the difference in the price of labor in this country. and in Europe. Cheap as printing is in'-this country, the Messrs. Ap pleton of New York alone have imported np wards of a pillion of bibles from England during the last few years, and at this mo meat, hundreds of thousands of the Book of Common Prayer, as used, in the Protestant Episcopal church• of the United States, are being imported. ' • We may add to this fact that Mr. Bohn's London editions of the English classics are superseding in this country the. American editions elite same; the fernier, being su perior in ()frailty and cheaper in price. En glish editions of American authors are some times imported, as in the cased the illus trated edition of Longfellow's Evangeline, Rublished.by Mesirs. Ticknor 6: Co. of this city - , but manufactured in London. These facts are certainly , worthy of con _sidera ti_oithnteuatiorial 0 :477 , iiiiriiiih — a - 15,11efifirdees not pro tect us against the competiticni,of the note muuerated labor of Europ e both our crafts-, men of thebmin and,i' . atthe•hands are likely to be poorly'off.—Beston Transcript. We have now in our store both Bibles. and Prayer Books manufactured in London, with the New York imprint. which we can sell :10 per cent cheaper than articles of similar manufacture made in this 'country. We alio know that the sheets of valuable Books, prin ted in this country, are frequently sent to Eu. rope to be elegantly bound, - because the'eheap labor in Europe enables them to procure the binding at a cheaper rate than it can be exe cuted in this country. When will the eyes of the people, and particularly the laboring classes, who are the greatest sufferers, be opened?. "Independent," the Washington corres pondent of the Phila. North American, in commenting upon the late election of United States Senator from this State, thus lamets Dr. Sturgeon's loss •The Senate will miss and lament the Doc-. tor's eloquence, which was touching on such occasions as presenting petitions and ' His wisdom conststed in silence; his patriotism in fidelity to party; his statesman ship in opposing the interests-of his constit leuts ; and his integrity in .a dogged and ig norant obstinacy to any one idea that hap , I MIA by chance to penetrate the crevices of his brain. A wooden statue would serve the double purpose of a monument and a daguer reotype of the living, man." Query—Row much better in point of tal ent is his successor ? , If.we are correctly in• formed, the newly elected Senator's capaci ty is of a very ordinary character.. It is for mate that the Whig patty does succeed oc casionally in this State,' to pit forth talen ted representatives, otherwise the people abroad would remain under the impression that Pennsylvania Was entirely devoid of talent, and capacity to represent ber inter ests in the 'National Councils. LEGAL REFORM. The subject of a revision of our, forms of legal practice and pleading. will be brought to the attention of the Legislature at an early day, and we sincerely trust the session will not be suffered to close without thertdop non of measures calculated to bring about a speedy and thorough. reform.—Philadelphia News. We have often wondered why, the profes sion have not earlier turned their attention to this subject. They seem to prefer the "kits they have," rather than risk a change for , tothers they know not of." Theantiquated phrases. and technicalities of, our judicial proceedings are like so much se,nselesS jar gon to the uninitiated, and might be dis pensed with;..we have . no dOubt, without serious disadvantage to either the law, the language, or good sense: Such a change has worked well in Isl. York, Wheria system of reform has been in operation for two years. In England also, the matter is hailed with an ominous welcome. A few years will no' doubt effect great changes.: We shall hope to see our legal, and court Proceedings ma- Aerially simplified, to the great relief of coun sellors and pleaders of the Jaw, and their better comprehension by the Faille generally. o:7Gen.

Blair of the Globe and Father Ritchie of the Unwn, with regard to the Public Printing, and the transfer of the, or gartisin at Virashulgton from the Globe to the Um= newspaper. Geo. Jackson, it appears from'a series of letters published by Mr. Blair, took part with him and the Globe against the Union and Father Ritchie and Polk. From one of these letters we make the following extract below. 4fter reviewing the course President Polk hail resolved to take, he writes to Mr. Blair fronethe Hermitage, under date of April 70 ,H 144-86 „ - "Yoticannii,;:tinder existingeirlittifitti* do anything to saveour character and deux,* erotic principles and } your high standing with all classes of the democraty,`but bY ,selling oat pour . paper.

The United States has been much the largest Customer, having taken m 1850, 57,509 tons, and in 1849, 94,212 tons.—ln this connection. the circular containing the statement of the iron Wade in Scotland, eln• braces the following remark : By latest advices from America, no -mea sures had been taken to alter her tariff; and should no change take place in this respect, a good demand may be expected ffom that quarter; and the contrary, shoula her legis lature impose a high specific duty on impor ted foreign iron.
