The effect of the Tariff 0f1842, '(which
was,, the' most benedcial -eves enacted by
Congress as far as the true interests` of the
country were concerned,) was not felt, much
except in inspiring confidence and building
up protected industrial establishments during
the.two. 6.tat years after its enactment—nor
was the blighting influence' of the Bill of
1046, (which took effect in 18470 felt in 'all
its intensity so long as there was a'faniine , in
°Europe, which threw the balance of trade - in
our favor, and prevented the export of specie
beyond the amount usually importid and ex
ported in a healthy Ante of the commerce of

Showing an excess of exports , n "goods,
produce, &c.. in our favor of $1,442,935, and
an increase of specie added to the country of
$9,313,656. How wonderfully were our re
sources developed, and , the creative In ,
duty of our country stimulated by that act
that its influence extended, nearly three years
after its repeal, aided of 'course by the famine
in Europe and the influx of gold from Cali
fornia. It is truo,the patient was sinking as
early. as 1848 and 1849, under 'th'e treatment
of the quack doctors, who-had b'een called in,
,-
as witnessed in the destruction of so many
Iroia works,—but it was only after .1850 that
. the patient began to Sink rapidly, and will
soon become helpless,u leis the quacks change
t. their preseriptions,-or kre dismissed.
We mill mention one single fact connected
with the-effect of the Tariff of 1842 on the
industry of the country, which we do not be•
lieve has a parallel in the history of the pro
ductive industry of any . nation ou the face of
the globe.. v •
•
. .
.13Rforet, the Tariff of 1842 was enacted,
which plated a duty of $25 per ton on Rail
road irp,p, that article was admitted free, if
laid down within three years after importa
tien—and there was not a single Rolling Mill
in operation in the United States for turning
out Railroad Iron. Sarin fire year* after
the endetinera rf that Tariff there were a suf . -
,ficient number of Rolling hills erected in the
United Slates, with a capacity to turn out
sufficient Railroad Iron in one day to lay
down three miles of track..'at• And •what
is equally important, the price of the Anteri
• 'ian Iron, a superior article, had fallen below
the price paid by the -State of Pennsylvania
for English Iron, an inferior article, duty, free,'
.to lay down her own improvements. It is
true the foreign trade of the country did not
increase as rapidly under Protietion as Free
Trade, but the Domestic Proartetionttwere in
creased during those live years of real, not
fictitiotis prosperity, at least Thr;e Hundred
Millions of Dollars. This was the remon,
why every person was employed .at good wa
ges, and while they had plenty otworki.they
eat ; up and consumed everything that was pro.,
dulled at home, and paid for it, too—keeping
the - specie at. home, and Ihrowing the balance
'of the trade in our favor, accumulating
wealth, enriching the country, and benfiting
time People.
But now {look at the other pietureoinder

JED - Ins Cox Seneca; 1 ,1.. aw.--We hays
licard men talk about the glory of our common
school system, and the groat importance of main.
tamping it. We hive heard men say that a divi
sion of the school fund was an iniquitous Measiire,
and they we have he;rd them whisper, lleveriihr
Bitusit was in faviir of it. How these men pl4ed
on porter credulity! Had the - Masses been in
the habit of reading, and examining, for thini.
selves, they would havo,,known that both Gover
nor Byrn!' and Goiernor Jonssrus, whom their
leaden supported for' the Chief Executive office of
ettis - State, sanctioned a division of the School
fund, and they would have known too that Gov=
error BIGLZ1) discarded it division is tote. They
would ulskbare known that nu Governor in this
.Compton wealth aver:done-more for oltication than
Governor BIGLER. But it is so. "Where igno.
ranee is bliss it is folly to be wiee,",may at• the
present be a good saying, and answer the pa o.
ses of some; but "a wise man is deceived but
once, a fool twice," is a far better saying.
We - clip -the above from the organ of the
retiring State administration—the Harrisburg
• ,
Union. It is neither a desire nor a .cpatem
with us to continent on the behavior of those
who no longer have the opportunity to do bet-,
ter; but if Ex-Governor. Bigler's friends will
.thrnst his name . before the public, it is but
right that all the facts of the case, in which
connexion it is introduced, should 'be made
plain, that while due credit' may be awarded
,
f6r his share in the administration of ourlitate
affairs, it may not be rendered at the expense
of others quite as deserving public 'commen
dation. . • •
The i.,ommon School system of Pennsylva•
nip., as we have more than oncebelt/re explain
ed, was instituted amidst Igreat opposition—
, and that opposition, coming mostly as it did
Ifrom personally interested parties, the private
schools (who tbrestm in it their death-bloW),
l was exceedingly bitter. It was, therefore, ne
cessary to base, the new system on some fiber
al, coMpromising foundation, in order to sat
isfy, as near as possible, its enemies as well as
its friends. Hence the insertion- of those
sections providing for special appropriations of
the common fund, to other than the Public
Schools, when demanded. Thus the latv • re
mained, year after year, from the date of its
enactment down to' last winterl--thonght no
private school, so far as we know, tooh Miran
sage of the provision referred
But during the Legislative sesiion of 1852'.3;
and when-it was known 7 ll4. F. Hughes,
then Secretary of t_ttte and Superink/adent of
the Common Schools, was preparinta new'
School bill the Roman Catholics throughout!
the comnionwealth became unusually ' - 1
Orptia about their 'rights under these provis
ions, and with the, famous BishOp O'Connor
of ittsburgh, in the lead, demanded even
further Inimunities and privilegei by law, for
the education of their children. This awaken
ed public attention to the matter;.and upon
investigation those sections, which for p'Fs
had remained upon our statute Books as use
less and inoffensive, were now shown to be of
a mischievous tendency, and at the discretion
of the various local School Boards, converti
ble into purposes foreign -from their original
design, and productive ofinterminable trouble.
Accordingly, they were very wisely omitted,
for . the first time, in, the School bill by the
Legislature, last winter.
Thus standi the record—in which briefthis
tory the reader may see for himself how much
or how little, not only Governors Ritner, John.;
mon and I,ligler had to do with the School law, I
but also the whole line of their predecessors
back to its' first 'passage. ti ow, a few words
in conclusion per/ionally for Gov. Bigler.
In the early part of his term, he was conbid-.
eredi very generally we believe,-/a friendof ed
ucation. Not long after his induction into of-
Bee, he attended the first State Teachers',doP
vention; and by his loud professions on behalf!
-of their interests, established a reputatiorn as I
their fast and best friend. But, strange to!
say, that was the last School convention flov
ernor Bigler attended. It was hinted by 'same
shrewd : guessers of other people's motives that
Bishop O'Connei's letter/I, whlelt appea'reitl
not long after, might have somewhat changed
theiGovetior's views of the Cielmon Seh6ol

The rest of the Fathers unanimously teach the

This; then, blest Holy Father, is the faith which
we have received from the beginning.i, As yet, to

your Iloliness a volume in which we have demon
strated nt length that, which is here stated in brief.
That treatise exactlf defines the pe)iod np to
Which it was yet unheard of that the blessed Vir
gin was without original sin. The idoctor who
first openly professed this opinion is here named;
and from the progress of that opinionlit is histor
ically shown that this doctrine is a new invention
in the Church. betseeclt yaw Holy Father, se
riously to meditate the 'irelne of. these arguments;
your Holiness ought to beivare of the nnhappy re
sults which must be occasioned by , an; attempt to
force a now dogma- on Christendom. i We cannot
disobey the precepts of the apostles.! To acqui
esce in new dogmas of faith is unlawfpl.
Most willingly, Holy Father, we confess that,
the BishOp of the First See ha s Ala primaey.of
the whole . Church ; we affirm thatt he Itonsan'pon
tiff is the legitimate successor of 4 Peter, and
that the authority of the former is as extensive as
that of the latter. But we cannot forget that
time map come when it Shall be necessary for Paul
to resist Peter to the ace, if It Should so happen'
that he isle be blamed in not walking according
to the truth of the gospel. _ You, Holpiher, are
Peter, wefthlit is, the body of Chris people,
• are Paul.! if, therefore) you imitate der, in not
walking according to the evangelical tbuth, it must
be our part to imitate Paul and resist' you to the

Eneron 3fularta r dotasstr—Dear Sir:—For the
first time iince the receipt of your favor of 13th
ult.; have II had time to reply. I
The subject of the use of Anthracite Coal in Do
comotive.Engines is one of - great importance,. not"
only, o the Schuylkill Coal Region, supplying now
sotto 50,000 tons annually for Engils of the sev
eral complinies employed in its earr age 'to mar
ket ; but Also to the Railroad interestof this coun
try generally,, comprising at presentenome 22,000
miles in daily - operation, and more In half that
number under construction ! on all o which their
'fuel is, or will be, the principal item of expense.
I propose to give a brief statementlof our expo-,
rience in the use of Anthracite Coal las a fuel for
Locomotives to the present date.
Previous to the year 1846, light elagines, from
11 - to 13 tons weight, -td- various patients and by
different builders, had been employeddn our heavy
transportation; and successfully, alt far as con
earned the practicability atone '
of using this fuel
during the unbroken,trip of 95 miles between the
.
Coal/Logien and the Delaware. i
-The rapidly increasing business jet the road
however, required engines of greatilm weight and
efficiency; and since. 1347, our Coal Trade hai
been carried on entirely by engines,,Of the largest
class, weighing from 24 to 28 tonsth water and
fuel; and'with an annually inereasin proportion
of their number using Anthracite Coa @elusively.
vT ,..
Li 1847, 5 per cent. of our Coal transportation
was hauled by engines using the latter, fuel ; and
in 1854 this proportion had increased inereasedice 85 per
cant. This company has now In use,l, 52 first class
Locomotives,using and built expreSsly for this
description f fuel i 49 for Coal and 4 for reason
- ger Train*
Thirty-three of these. have been !built by Mr.
Ross Wit4ll9, of Baltimore, and the balance in the
Company'b work-shops, under the superintendence,
and3tfter the designs ,of Mr. James IMillhoUand,.
I master Machinist. -
I • 1
All use Anthracite Coal with complete success,
; in their trip of 05 miles down and up the road.—
' The distinctive features of these engines, adapting
1,
them to the use of this fuel, are as fellows: .
1. •A large, and very-long (fromi 5 to 7 feet)
,-
Fire-box.( I

2. No, 'Water - way in back part bf Fire-box ;
that portion of the latter being occuPied by doors,
and an pion grate for the convenience of raking
the fireOneaking "slag," aclinibr" /e.
3. A `Mead grate bar;" fitting closely to the in
side of the Fire-box, end extending ,4 to 10 ineheS
therefrom,' to prevent the rush of air' upwards im
pinging , upon, and injuring the' loWer sheets of
the Fire-box.
4. A Variable exhaust, tontrolled by the en
;
gineer... 1 • 1

COMPARINO COAL AND WOOD As LOOOIIOTIVE FUEL:
1
Engiue.4, using Anthracite Coal, cost from 10 - to
20 per ;cent. more fur repairs than those using
wood, Carded mainly by the greater wear of their
boilers and Fire-boxes—the, bracer requiring re
newal of its levier sheets everytilto 24 months
when doing heavy 'duty. One ten 1 (2240 lbs.) of
good mire; free burning Anthttaciteorill be equal
in a Locomotive, to about 13 cords of goad, dry,
oak wood.! If the,latter be green, 'pr inferior in
quality, or if ordinary pine wood he Used, the dif
ference will be still greater—in favoi of the Coil.
Our coal binning engines haul, dtiringthe Busi
est season„ an average of-100 Coal leers 95 miles
to marketi loaded with 490 tons of Coal; return
ing the same distance the followingiday with the
empty carp. • The loaded train weighs, exclusive
of engine br tender, 740 tone, and the empty train
returned, 250 tuns, all of 2240 lbs. 1 .
The total fall from Port Carbon to tide water
is about 600 feet, divided into variousgrades, gen
erally very light, hone exceeding 0 feet between
Sohuylkill haven and Falls—the points. where !
trains ate made up, and, divided between- Rich
mond and Philadelphia. - • '
There is no rising grade' betweeniPort Carbon 1
and Richmond, with the exception ~ of one of 44
feet at ; Fails.—for 13 miles, up -which assistant
power is used, pushing the trains behind, the lead
ing engine. exerting-her full 'poorer also. 'Forty
miles ate level, 8# miles of which are at one point
continuous. . I •
In performing this dirty, our engines ja good
order, and with carefully selected Anthracite Coal,
will consume between 8 and 9 tens of that fuel in
the round trip of 190 miles, and hatil their trains
through as -fast as, limited by the rules of the
road—front 10. to 12 - miles per benv l with the I
power of attaining a higher rate Of speed if al- 1
lowed. I . , ,
The average quantity of fuel used per trip de
ring•the whole year, is necessarily hirger as stated
in the alinnal reports—owing to the Coal used in,
kindling being ineluded--eas well a'd that lost by
broken trite', snow and sleet stormy; waiting and
laying over fur trains, delays and accidents, ae-.
which railroad men can readily comprehend.
