THE ARTICLE WE promised for to day's Journal, on the Coal formations of the Region, theories, speculations, &v., we are obliged to defer till next week. Being dis appointed in procuring certain important - ; 1 tit, we prefer, saying nothing to prese ing our readers with an , imperfect article the subject is an important as well as high y in teresting one, and requires to be treats plainly and at length, to he fully unders ryz, tpg We are having prepared several diagra o 0 the Coal strata of the Region, which we sign as explanatory of , our remarks next week, and we'hope thus, by rendering the subject the more intelligible to the public then, to atone, in part at least, for the disap pointment we cause them to-day. THE TEHPEHANCE QUESTION. Many ask whether the recent decision of the Legislature on the Liquor Bill is to be considered a fair and final test of Pennsylva nia on Temperance. We answer emphaV wally, No. Mueh more was accomplished, as it is, than the most sanguine advocates of the movement anticipated for it—they have ..every cause for rejoicing, except that which the !passage of the Maine Bill would - have affoided. - In fact, the fall of the Bill late be toreihe House is but little regretted—it was not t ,-,Bill. The Thirty-one gallon clause was a mutilation of the original Bill that found very little favor with Temperance men generally—several unembers,who openly avowed themselves' in favor of the Maine Law, very properly recorded their votes against its slyio_us substitute. What was dote; clearly demon , straws that the State Legislature is not im pervious to the influence of the Temperanee agitation, as many Rum-croakers would have-us believe—the members manceuvred on this subject, as they would have done on any other-,-.leCing - equally responsible, polit ically considered, fur the position their votes would place' hemin, before the people. The Temperance! question is destined to' hold a conspicuous place in the " platfortn. " of fu ture politicians. The Temperance men of the country have grown to a large body - - they are just - now becoming conscious of their power, and although they work with out much noise, their influence will be felt none the less, and their ultimate success is 4 rendered so much the surer. True, the Maine Law hasleen defeated in New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Pennsylvania, but only after a violent and protracted strug gle; at the same time it has triumphed in Maine, Massachusetts and Minnesota. In Rhode Island it failed only . because of a di vision of sentiment between the Senate and house about submitting the question to a vole of the people. This, it must be remembered, is the - result 61 but the first effort in its favor . in these several , States. Ten years ago—aye; three ears ago, it would have been impossible to past! the Maine Law, or any similarly , strin gent one, through the Legtslature of any State in the Union—such a proposition I would have been scouted with hardly a mo . pent's consideration. The progress of this wholesome cause is very rapid---it quietly gams up - on the sympathies of the peopl; al ' most 'without their being conscious of it, and it has now reached that point of popular fa vor, when it acquires strength and gathers friends by` the score. We reler to'its recep . non among the mass of the people—among those who are not profeedly Temperance men. The question wirundoubiedly be brought up again at the next sesston of. the Legisla ture iu all those States where it has this time tailed, and in many others besides. With out any pretension to prophecy, but simply taking the progress of Temperance for the last i ten 11 years as a criterion, we have no hes .ilaol3 n saying that in five years hence the Maine Law, or similar enactments, will be operation in three-fourths of the Stales of ihePutire Union. NORMAL SCIROOLS. 'Mr. Jewell writes us another excellent 'ar ticle in to-day's 'Journal,. on this subject.— The .more we see of this discussion, the more firmly are we persuaded of the correct uess of i t be original plan we suggested sunie weeks since, that of establishing insti tutions for Normal instruction in the seve ral Congressional Districts, iu opposition to the plan of endowing one or even two cen tral State institutions. Let it be an optional matter with each District, whether or no it will hale a Nor mal School. IF the inhabitants make them .responsible for a certain amount o money,. say $l5OO, for the support of such an astautton, then let it be obligatory on the State to appropriate an equal sum for its im mediate establishment. Many of the Dis tricts would hold off for a time, and, per haps, comparatively very tew would accept the proposition at once, so that the system would go into effect gradually—an impor- taut item in the economy of the State finan ces. Another saving would be the purchase or lease of unappropriated buildings, already up, at a small cost, without the expense and delay of their special erection for the pur pose; We believe that this plan would give t much more general satisfaction—those who Wanted Normal 'Schools could bait , them, and'those who did , not, would likewise be accommodated; it would be far more eco nomical, and,in the end,we have no shadow lof a doubt, from all the information we can glean on the subject, would work better arid result . in the greatest good ,to the greatest number—the main object of all such insti tutions. WHIG NATIONAL CONVENTION. The Whig U. S. Senators held a caucus In the Senate Chamber, at Washington, on .-iittirday' last, and appointed a commit tee to confer with a committee of the Whigs a the other House, for the designation of the lime and place fur the .assembling of the Whig National -Coniention to• nominate a President and Vice President.

To =end to market the same quantity of Coul that was tent last year from Schuylkill County, to that period, would require a weekly shipment of 53,000 tons in round numbers. To increase the quantity 200,000, from this Region would require a weekly shipment of 60,000 tons per week, without the Irks of a single day through chit the season A week's stoppage would require the weekly ihipment to he increased 62,000 tons to make up that quanitity.

COMPUTING INTEREST. Computing interest enters so largely into almost all business -transactions now-a-days, it is an important item, in the economy of time, to adopt the shortest, as well as, the most accurate, method of calculation. Of the many rules for that purpose, the best we have ever come across is the following, given by the MonniOuth !nu:2.er: . " The dollars of the principal sum is the interet in nuts, tor, precisely two months. For instance , the interest for two mouths on $B7 is 87 cents.— g i his gives the exact fraction. Again: the dollars of the principal sum is the interest in mills for pre cisely siz days. For instance ; the interest on $B5O for siTi days, is S5O nulls or 85 cents; for two months it_iS $8,50. With these simple rules fixed in the mind; any one can very.readily compute in terest, and with entire accuracy." LOOKING OVER the New Bedford papers we : were surprised to notice the ex• tremely s mall importation of Oil compared with same periods of former years. The total importation of Oil thus far. has been as follows: Sperm 12,704 Barrels ; Whale 18;360 barrels, equal to 400,176 gal lons Sperrh ; 578,345 gallons Whale Oil.— Same time last year the imports stood':— Sperm 25;985 barrels; 'Whale 169,972 bar rels, equal in gallons to 818,427 gallons Sperm ; 5,269,132 gallons Whale Oil. From careful calculations made by New Bedford . importers, the whole amount of Whale Oil to be imported , this-year, cannot exceed 85,113 barrels, equal to . 2,638,500 gallons. The import of Whale Oil in 1851 was 328,483 barrels, or 10,347,214 gallons, .the heaviest import fin. many years, but still prices kept going up, as the consumption is constantly increasing. In consequence of this-greati, deficiency the price of oil has ad. vanced to rates unprecedented with every prospect Of going still higher. (0 — Ai, TIM Municipal Election in Tren ton, New.

March 11,1852. 11.3 m SILL—The political atmosphere of this latitude is surcharged with the exciting elements of Presi 7 dent making, and the public business, which, at all times should bear the precedence in the attention of puke men, has to layover, or linger for a while upon the table of each House of Congress,annil the great question be first disposed of; as to who shall rule as Chief Magistrate, for the four years follow ing.the 4th of March, 1853. Although MR. FILLMORE'S administration 'has been a very fair one, with little or uo complaints against it, either by friends or foes, still'ihy belief isoltat his chance ter the Succession is not as good as that of some others in the Whig party. GEN. SCOTT, the favorite of Pennsylvania, appears to be the favorite also, of a Majority of the Whigs every where, and, in the event of his nomination by the Convention, he may succeed against the opposing candidate, provided he will be supported by a pop- Mar Vice Presidential candidate. As no one has, as yet, been nonied,to my knowledge, in connection with that once, I know of no man more fit or worthy of the confidence of the Whigs of the whole Union, than the lion. JAMES COOPER; the Whig Senator front your State. His course upon every question of public polity, including both personal and State interests, at the South as well as at the NMI!), has been characterized all through his Senatorial career, by wisdom, prudence, and sootsjudgrrneat.lndeed, I know of no Statesman, whether Whig or Democrat, who commands a larger share of respect among his compeers in Congress, than Mtt. COOPER • and will further add, that no matter Who may be the choice of the party us, its candidate for the first of= lice in the gift of a great people, the selection of Ma. COOPER for the next best, would be both poli tic and wise To you, who kuow hum, it is not necessary for me to say a word in his praise, but to those who are personally strangers to his merits; it is proper for one, who has watched his political tits with a close eye to the general welfare, to say this much in los Mn. COOPER isnot what may be called a br illiant politician,—that is one who makes a error . figure out of small metre, but he is what is better, a solid Slateman of modest and. unpretending antecedents the true characteristics of all able and good men. As Pennsylvania has a po tent voice in the selection of Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates, I hope, as one of her eftt zens, that slie will not neglect to press the clouts of her most faithful Whig son upon the calm MO just consideration, of the enlightened Whigs of the whole Union—when the time for so doing shall ar rive, let the ticket he SCOTT AND COOPER. SENEX. ll= The French Spolianons and the Public Printing have occupied the bulk of the week in Congress. The Intervention question in the Senateis posponed again till next week. Mr. Mangum, of rforth Carolina, made a great speech in the Senate, on Thursday, on the Presidential question, explaining his rea sonsTir differing with the people of his State —they preferring the present President while he was for Scott. It is said to have created quite a flutter among the politicians at Wash- EEI Another Apportionment Bill is now before the Legislature, which places us in the Ilth Congressional District, composed of Schuyl kill, Montour, Columbia and Sullivan coun ties. On Wednesday an apportionment`Bill, with various amendments, passed the Senate —we presume the same iu which the above division occurs. Mr. Frailey voted against it. A bill to charter the Tamaqua sank pas. sed on Thursday. MEM The following are the provisions of - the Bill, noticed last week, relating to capital punishment in thig State—the report of its 'entire abolishment is not strictly correct: " It provides that hereafter no warrant for the exe- Cution of any convict by hanging shall be 'wised within one year after the sentence of death shall have been paned, and that, after that period, if no circumstances shell have come to light to render doubtful the correctness of the verdict of the jury in the matter, the Governor shall then tesne his war rant for Wen execution—from the time of conviction 'to the timeOf execution the convict shall be confined in one of the penitentiaries of the. Coniinonwealth for safe keeping. Upon the renditiOn of a verdict of . . . . "guilty of niurdrr in the first degree," against any person charged therewith. in any court In this com monwealth, it shall be lawful for the Jury to recom mend the persontonvicted to the matey of the court; and every person duly convicted of murder ' in the first degree, whom the jury so convicting shall re commend to tire mercy of the court, shall be sentenc ed to undergo an itnprisontuent in one of the State penitentiaries, and to be kept in separate or solitary confinement, at labor, for a period of not less than fifteen nor more than fifty years." 11-Gm U - MAINE LIQUOR LAW IN NEW YORL.- The Prohibitory Liquor Law has been defea ted in the New York Legislature; nays 69, yeas 45.

His reception was Of the warmest kind. He read his speech standing in the tribune. He announ ced that` it was the interest of Franee to pre serve relations of amity with all nations; and disclaimed any intention of assuming the Emperor-ship of Frirrice, but, at the same time, he declared that if disaffection or in-' trigue should force him to adopt other mea sures, he would demand from the people, in the name of the repose of France, a new title which would irrevocably fix on his head the power with which the people had invested him. This is ominous, we fear, for the fate of France's Republicanism--thi President's brain is too fertile not to make it an easy %atter for him to hatch up some " disaffec tion -or intrigue," as an excuse for his as sumption of absolute power.
