There are many ~worthy landlords, who keep good honiek'preyent tippling as fat as possible, and try to conform to the law, but the great multi2licity of Licences granted for political and other purposes, and the nu= merons tippling houses thus virtuealy sanc tioned by the Court, forces many of these to to encourage the sale of liquors • secur e themselrei from loss. Is n. the Court therefore responsible for the e(il ? ('.WE PUBLISH -0T following communi cation at the request thewriter. We must expect the lawyers to tatri the Court publicly—whatever they mairth'• priiately. ,_The large mass of the people, however, in- thisAegion believe. that the Court is influenced, and it was the firm con viction of Hugh Stevenson, that he could , not obtain justice, as soon "as he found a cer. tain party employed against him, and his case' put off at their instance, that caused him 'to go out Court and - immediately shoot himself: IFOR :1118 urnERl ioTivrAt..l DEAR BROTRER :—Your Pinegrove cones, pondent end yourself have both pretty freely indulged in the use of my name, in connec- Lion with the wanting of the ,Umbehauer license by our court at the June Sessions, and for this cause I claim the right to : be heard as well in relation to that transaction, as to the grave charge made by your Pine ,grove Correspondent against the integrity of our Court. I care very hide about what may be said of myself in the public papers o! the day, provfiledmi conduct meets with my own ap approval. But when the integrity of our Courfis aftacked, the public, as well as every member of the bar practising at that Court, are deepYinterested in the issue; and it may not be regarded as presumption in those, at leeit, to whom reference is made, to speak of what they do know upon that subject. It is pretty well known in this communi tyi that I am not one of the political friends of H6n. Judge Hegina; that I did not advo cate his election, but preferred another. And being in that position, I have been a careful observer of his Judicial conduct on the bench, since his election -to that important office, and I• am constrained to say, (and I am well' satisfied that the sentiments will be respond ed to by, all the members of the bar) that there does not exist - any just 'ground for charging corrupt motives to him or any oth er of the members of the Court, in relation to granting Tavern licenses or any other matter brought before the Court ; but on the other hand we, who have the best opportu nity of knowing, are gratified to think that; we have in th.e President of our Court an able lawyer and an honest Judge, and, what ever may be his private predilection., he,has exhibited nothing of lavoriteisru upon the bench;and any person who has an honestcause need not Wear the result in his hands, no 1 matter how, humble the advocate or to what political party he may belong. I am fully aware of the fact, and it-ts to be'regretted that it' is so, that an itn pression has been extensively made amongst the_people, that in order to have full justice front Court, the services of F. W. Hugh es, Esq., must be - secured as counsel. This is, as evil, and is no doubt as embarrassing vi the Court as it is unfounded in.lact.— Whenexer favoriteism of this 'description exists in any Court, the opposing counsel will be the first to make the ditiovery, and the first to 'denounce it. This- improper impression has arisen not , from any action or countenance of the Court-, but from other causes. The injudicious in uendoes and insinuations of Mr. Hughes' !specter friends - , who #ell understand the importance of such so impression to him, have contributed largely towards it, whilst others (such, for instance, as your Pinegrove correspondent) adopt, their insinuations as true fur the purpose of grounding their ac cusations against the Court ;-' and between both classes of men, many, honest men who Ihave do evidence or knowledge .upon the I subject, think that where so mintehMhnid, 1 something must be true: ,_,, - a--.4espeowsitde lstilieliauer- license, in rwhich I was concerned, whether correctly granted or, not, it is rather too small game for the Court to throw away its integrity upon. I will vouch for it that it will not: shorten the vote of the brave General SCOTT one,yet. If my, old friend Umbehauer should Make the discovery that his little,isolated liquor shop should make 'stiehris political 1 revolution in the country as .' Pinegrove" would attribute to it, he will 'certainly be down ',upon the party for an office; and I, for one, would not dislike to see, the Old man comfortably posted. But whilst upon the subject of granting Tavern licenses, I will admit that they are., often obtained when they _ought not to be, and the cause is not so much with the Court as with the evidence. -The friends of the cause of Temperance do not seem to com prehend that Courts act upon evidence and are bound by it. Remonstrances are not evidence. All experience has shown that neither recommendations dor remonstrances are to be relied upon. Remonstmaces,com log from á respectable quarter, are alwayr received by the Court to put tavern keepers to the proof, and they having a deep interest in the question generally are. on the alert to get, the proof, whilst on the other lurid their opponents generally rest satisfied with the presentation of a well dratiet=rernonstrance; and if they do resort to evidence they fail of their work for want of attention to the sub ject,and thus the fault rests More frequently with the opponents of the measure than with the Courts. , 1 I have said this much because of Th e im- , proper attack made upon our Court, and not out of any hostility to the cause of Tempe rance ; for I do commend the laudable efforts of every person engaged in arresting the progress of Intemperance; but Temperance men become Irttemperate when they c site , officers with corruption, simply beau they , have failed to enlist them as zealously n the cause as themselves.

The article of the last Register gives the F. ' best evidence possible, in the nature of the case, that the purpose-for which we deemed it our duty to call public. attention 4o this matter:is accomplished. I,f the facts we have submitted in relation to Umbehauer's Tippling House can be dis proved, let the Register try it. lithe infer ences and charges drawn from those facts are false. let the, Register refute them. If there is net an impression prevalent throughout the county, that an influence, other than law, affects the action of the Court in the : matter of licensing Tippling Houses, let the Regis ter show in the contrary. 1 Something of the sort, indeed, was at tempted brthe Register, in its first rejoin der ; and by the aid of its correspondent, it accomplished the triumphant refutation of a charge which was never made! _ , In, en deavoring to refute another charge. it stated that ” Umbehauer votes as frequently for the Whigs as he:does for the Democrats." This assertion, bOwever, happens to be untrue.-- Its correspotident stated roundly, that the Witnesses who testified in ' Umbehauer's case, "swore to the utility of the house, and the unfounded nature of the cfgrge made _against it." This, also; happens to be un true. , ,- 238 As to theiCharacter of the last article of the Register; with the exception of a few salien ce*, it is'• nothing but cowardly personal abuse, which;_as It matter of course, is be neath our ,notice, This, the Editor, ot the Register knoWs dell ; and it is not, therefore necessary, to, assure , him, that billingsgate is not our forte; and that, as neither our principles, practice, nor• taste lie in that di rection, we cheerfully yield the palm to him on that score.: . • His convulsive homily . on 'all kinds of "Moral ,Internperance,' dedidedly rich ; and although , we agree with hith.on Several points, yet,, the peculiar appropriateness of his prating about " intemperance of lan guage," about morality, &c., while reeking ith detraCtion uttered in defence of Tip p • Housed and ' debaucheries, reminds us ford ly of :a' scene in Bailey's Festus, in whic Lucifer himself harrangues a-gay com pany of mortals on the cardinal virtues, and lays down a , new system of theology for them. But in justice to the editor ofthe Register; we must say that he has proved himself one. = the most temperate persons alive—on two points - at least, if not more. The first is up on the ineritiuf the case in general between its, and particularly upon the facts Connected with Umbehatier's Tippling House and its license by the Court: He moo infinitely tem perate as to. these facts that in all the vapor tog of his last article be does not even al lude to Wept.: His practice on this point ev idently prove's, his motto to be " Touch= not, Taste not, Haptile not." And as td the em ployment ottrut4 in his article, which is the seond point upon whch we admire his tem perance—he Is such an arch-anchorite model of a,tee-totaller, and so rigidly abstemious in this regard; that we fear some will be led to conclude that he belongs to that class, " Who lore a lie, where truth would pay as well , The editor Of the Register informs us that he holds " that he who habitually prostitutes his public lotirnal to private malice is infi nitely more pestiferous than he Who sells spirits." We; agree with him here to the letter, and we hope] therefore, that uo one will ever accuse him , of entertaining a very high opinion of himself. But really the best thing the Register has said on this subject, is the following : " If our laws are wrong in tolerating or providing for the sale of spirits, let us amend them. But while they.are laws let us respect them, and the rights of those who act under their salaam!! We sa" amen to this with all our heart ; and our lip curls in sorrow more than scorn to think that' tso correct a sentiment should be uttered by - a;ranting hypocrite,like the Re gister..while shamelesslydefendfng Tippling Houses which exist without law, and against la*, and atterripting to justify a Court which prostitutes powers to sustain, and perverts the law to create them. PINEGROVE. [FOG TEE MINERS' IC/PENAL.' 111f.•13AINNAN—You will confer a favpr on a number of your readers by publishing the folloWiog article from the Philadelphia Sten, whi4h gives ..the other side of the question wittl regard to the present Mail difficulties. • A SUBSCRIBER. SINE Pf . M i r MASTER GENERAL i And tile Reading Rail Road . - 1 The recent' discontitidence of the convey ance' of the United States mail via the Read ing Railroad to- Pottsville, and from thence to Wilkes-barre, &c. has been the subject of much _newspaper comment, and we think our Contemporaries have not taken sufficient pain's to investigate the relative duties of the Postmaster General and those having ,control of the Railroad. We have refrained from any reference to the attacks upon the official depend:mat at Washington, till we could learn the whole causes of difference, deprecating, as we must do, the ex-parte statements which have thrown a:I the res ponsibility upon the Postmaster General.— That officer is curbed in all his operations by wholesome laWs,'and among the duties thus_ prescribed to him, is the classification of the mails carried by the several railways, accoi dingio their size - and importance, while the compensation.to be allowed for the transpor tation of the Mails of each class, is fixed by legal enactment, beyond his control, revision' , or alteration. 'This classification is not in tended to designate the character or quality of the railroad, but the size of the mails and the frequency of transportation over them, together with many other incidents affecting , the value and-importance of the service ren dered. A railroad may be one of the best in ' all respects, and yet entitled only to a small compensation .for carrying mail! of compar atively minor._ importance, whilean inferior road may properly be-allowed a higher corn , pensation for. Conveying mails of a higher chute. As the law requires the Postrnastet General thurtO classify the mails; presum ing, doubtless, that he would be better-qual ified than any other person to form a correct judgment of their relative importance and size, he must of necessity exercise his own disCretion in performing the ditty. It is well known,lhat with the view of acting towards the railroad companies with fairness and deliberationdie deferred the con sideration on theirelaims until the hurry and excitement of the great "lettings" were over. On mature consideration, he determined that he could not,:cousistently with his duty, offer the Philadelphia and Reading Rail road Company more than one; hundred and fifty dollars per' ; mile per annum , for the mail service required on that road. The Compa ny declined the service on 'bete terms, and claimed to be placed on a footing with the Pennsylvania Central Railroad hoe. It is obvious to all, that the Postmaster General had substential reasons for his kefusal torrid mit this claim, is the transportation service rendered the Department between Philadel phia and Pittsburg is of much, ,greatit com parative importance and nine; ;than that be ttyeen Philadelphia and Pottsville. • The Reading road would carry local mails only, whip thole conveyed by the - Philadelphia and Pitts rg line, would -supply, not only the seat of vemment of Pennsylvania, arrt/ the ,commerm city 'of Pittsburg. but,also aeon sieerable extent of country beyond the latter place., The bulk of the mail requires"consid eration' ore the value of the intelligence which is t sunned by it,, and upon this estimate alone, - ..kin the Postmaster General base his judgmenfits,the classification. It is a feet, which .Properly cannot be asserted, to their prejztdiie, that no railroad proprietors in the.Untted States have beezi Satisfied with the elassifilation of their servile by the De. - primes'. blanypreviontiastautaartfrub THE MINERS' . JOURNA L , AN:Dj.'QTTSVILLETOEN,EILWAD road, and its proprietors have a right re - place a first class estimate upon its services—what would have been the consequences? He would hive been compelled by justice and consist ency, to have i ncreased the compensation of the Pennsylvania Railroad ComOriy, and indeed to alter all the classification under the late lettings. He could not thus repudiate Its deliberate judgment, nor abandon his ideas of duty, by adopting the views of each company, respecting :he value of its own service. The Postmaster General has acted under no exkitement, nor has he solittertiatierce the Reading Railroad Company, or drWClt into a loosing bargain. Before makinglath-, er provisions for transporting the mails over or neer the line of its road, it is under our knowledge that he sent a Special Agent ,dl his department to this city 'to confer with the Company, hoping that a full explanation of the circumstances limiting his discretion, and controling his action,mould have in duced them to accommodate the citizens of the counties interested, on the terms pre scribed by the act of Congress. But the Company, for reasons ; doubtless sufficient in its own estimation, stilt refused, leaving the Department to the alternative of sending the mails by Railroad to Norristown, and thence bv,magims on the turnpike. Though this has been done, in the exigency, the Depart= meat is still prepared to contract with the Company on the terms offered by the Post master General, whenever it shall signify its willingness to accept those terms. We trust the matter may be reconsidered on the part of the Company, and !eking into con sideration the fact, that the Department has acted solely with a view to the protection of the Public interests, and with its discretiona ry powers limited by Congressional enact ments, that we may soon have the-pleasure of announcing that the mails haVe been re stored to the route whose expedition, suits its service to the views and wishes of our peo ple. But until this is done, it is unfair to charge the entire blame upon the public offi cer who is faithfully and impartially doing his duty. The political journals which have fattened upon the, patronage of the Depary meat, have coldly turned from its defence, when nothing . was requisite to constitute' that defence but a plain statement of the facts.! From this it is evident that the politicatl sun' of the present admigistmtion is setting ; had! its orb been rising, and the advertisements for contract-letting in the perspective, we should have had glowing eulogies on Judgel HALL, and his course would have been held up for the example of all public functionaries. IVe have never received one cent, of profit from the Department; we were overlooked when it had the opportunity of giving us ad vertisements, which would .have reached thousands where they did hundreds through the mediums chosen, and therefore we can not be charged either with mercenary feel ings, or as being under obligations of,grat. itude in defending its action in the pre sent case. Nor can the Reading Rail road Company, for one moment suspect us of unfriendly . feelings towards it; for we have been its friends when friends were needed nor can it consider. us swayed by any partial ity in the matter. We are solely actuated 6 ) , a desire to do justice to one of the most effi cient departments, under Mr. newton's ei. cellent administraiion, which now, in ittlitst months, seems to be fbrgotten by its former parasites, and deserted by those who only •• crook the pregnant hinges of he where thrift may follow fawning." Otli ad vice in all sincerity to 'the Binding Railroad Company, is to accept the terms of the De partment, and restore its utility to the ertire communities, now suffering by the slow trans mission of the mails, over routes where greater speed having been previonly enjoyed, its deprivation is more seriously felt. The Lomfocos.have nominated a person for Canal ',Commissioner by-,the name of Wm. SEARIGIIT, of Fayette county. The fol lowing letter, it appears, is genuine and was given to the public by a member of :he Lo cofoco party—by a member not pleased with the nomination. It is certainly a choice spe cimen of his abilities for the office of Canal Commissioner : Mr. Hugh Keys Dear Sir—l will Just in• form you that Mills has not brot more Than two hundred dollars home with him we have been to the bank he paid of The interest Er has gave me a 'Judgment for Twenty five hundred whitch I have Entered on the Coun. ty dockett he has Gon back to richmond where he says he . Can git his note discounted that his Fria:tad Sold negraes for in orleans on a Credit of-Six and nine months and will return in one month and pay of one half of the bank if so the Judgmetit will be good for the ballens I have my doubts But as I wase gilty of forgery by swing your name to his note and the penitentiary Staring me in the face I shot bast.to,release you from the bank and I have taken all the responsibility on my self but if ever I do such an act again Dam me. I 'presume he has .written to Coplan and you for Somettiing_for him I have nothing to Say in his favor you — Ci — wrowlra you pleas you are released from the Bank I take it alt on my self But if you do know. that he has don more for the party now in power Then some men'that has got the fat test Coktmcts on the Canal and if he had the mens Wood do more for his freands than Some that wood follow Like penny dogs when the think the have something - to gain and .nothing to Lose. I mean mills wood help when hts friend was in adversity not Like Some wood be freands that will hang to the Coat tail when in prosperity. I have promised to pay of the bank it mills fails this spring and that will-Take about all the rrhiny I will be able to Colect as it has to come By the hardit your friend me gifire its most Likely will fail in paying the money he borrowed of me and that will not be trettog his fileands wall he got about all I ever got for our work and you now I must have a gooddeal to start that work pleas give my resecta to my frieands 'Coplan and-Flan nanken. -The Uniontown Sentinel virtually admits the letter, and tries to explain away the " Forgery business," by stating that there was an understanding between Keys and Searight, "by which they frequently signed the names of - each other to checks andoth. er papers, and that this was the fact in relit. tion to the note.refeired to in Mr. Searighi's letter." The above is the explanation of the Uniontown Sentinel, but Mr. Searight puts the signing Ut z , a ‘rwe serious aspect. He says the Penitentiary was staring him in the face, and men do not often try to make their guilt greater than it really is in such cases. Can Cane even Lecofocoism swallow such a man for Canal , Commissioner ? or does it make no difference as to charatcer or capac: ity, so that they can only clutch the spoils Since the above was .written, we learn from the Philadelphia News that' some of the party feel inclined to throw Searight over. board. This is certainty n sigri in favor of the progress of intelligence. 0:731a. B.

Scarcely seventeen weeks of the shipping lesson to December , remain, and the average weekly ship. ments.from this Region ktst yeig, during the months of August, September, October and November, were 51,390 tons. We may increase our shipments over this amount from 6 to 8,000 tons per week on the average, but this ,is the full extent of whet we can do should no Interruption whatever occur. This would make :he increase from this Region, during- the season, about 200,000 tone. The Le high may increase 50'or 60,000 tons—they can not do more. A single week's interruptiot,:,how ever;on the Schuylkill and Lehigh, would eut off about ninety thousand tons of this increase. ' The Schuylkill Navigation Company, we I'rn, have awarded the premium to Aldridge on the ground of the refusal of Connelly to comply ith the restrictions promulgated by the - C= I'7y to rn gove their further running. We preinime the Company will put a atop toany'funher rivalry of of the kind on their works. In offering the premi ums they never contemplated a contest which would enlist "outsiders" to the extent this did, and if not checked in time would have ended In a general row The blood was up, and reason was fast losing its sway. A report has been industriously circulated, that our townsman, SAMUEL SILLYMAN, Esq., one of the Managers of the Schuylkill Navigation Com. patty, had staked 24,000 on Aldridge's Boat. DAP he publicly contradicts. He has not adollar bet on either of the boats—his 'sole object was to put a atop to the raw by amicable meant, and to the satisfaction of both parties, but " outsiders" inter fered and prevented him troth accomplishing hii praiseworthy object. • The Coal Trade to the East is very active, up•' wards of 17,000 tons were received et than, port in a few days, principally from Philadelphia ° By Telegraph.

THE FINUERIES. The difficulty, on this subject, between our government and Great Britain,is nothingnew. The I " North American Fisheries" have long beenia bone of contention between the two countries— even from the earliest days of our national existence. Seizures by the British government were made long ago for alleged violations of the treaty of 1818 between the two countries; and it was on the discussions that i then arose, about the matted says the NatiOzal Intelltgencer, that the, Government of Great Britain so far relaxed its rights--nn- - der the treaty. as to permit - onOshermen to pursue their vocation - in the Bay of Fundy, provided that they did not go within three , miles of the shore on either side. About the same time the Argus was seized on the norteast coast of the island of Cape Breton, and rid and confiscated. And this _claim-- to exclusive jurisdiction, according_ to their 11 . cons&uction of the treaty, has alwiya been insi+don by Great Britain, - though not al -. . ways, enforced. It, - also, appears that the British Minister uotibed our government, as early as the 7th inst., that frequent encroachments were made by the United States vessels upon their fish-. ing grounds, and that effective measureshad, already had been taken to prevent their re currence.
