Tito vote was the same as on the first iTenot,
with tho eseeption that .Mr. Sallade, of Berks,

The motion, after ;ulna debate, wr., aireed'to,
Tat! 67, nays a L.
The resolution to' adjourn, was carried'by
the opponents to the eleetitin of General Cam
eron, and if they can unite on a single can
didate. which is rather doubtful, the General
notiy, be defeated.
It is evident' that , the General has teen
z'Sam"—but he is generally lOoked upon as
an:lntriguing politician and speculator, with
doubtful principles,—a kind of go-between
the parties, lacking the confidence of
after a trial. He has the merit of rising from
the ranks of the people, by his own exertions
—is shrewd in business, a good manager,tpos
sesses moderate talents, and was in 1846, in
favor of the *protection of ,American Industry.'
It is alleged that he has' changed several
times since, with the current, but is right
again on this subject. If so, it would cover
a multitude of heresies in our opinion—but
we must confess we do not like the man. We
would greatly prefer seeing one selected tO
represent, us, at Washington .in whom the peo
ple, (not the ioliticayraders,) have more
confidence.
since the• above was placed irk type,. we
have received an address to the public, signed'
by twenty eight of the bolters, which is conch
ed in :strong - language, setting forth the rea
sons that compelled. them to pursue the
course they did. We have room for only a
few extracts from this address,:
. the Conveutional Caucus, held to nominate
a candidate tor-State Treasurer, members of the
American Organization were refused admittance,
simply becalm:e they had refused to co,oporate
wits the party from the beginning, and to vute
fur as caucus nominees. • But at the caucus held
on the evening, of the 9th inst., those 'who had
been refwed admittance to the previous caucus
were found in attendance; and some who were
only known as - bitter (mes of the American
thlwaizatiim, were with u s/d irecting and control
-...4iug the nomination of_oll of the most intriguing,
ff- nut the mon •corrupt, politician in the State. A
resolution was offered to exclude those objectioria
hie person!, and their owe votes indefinitely post
poned the consideration of the resolution. Aino
Lion was then made `to proceed to nominate for
the United States Senate by a viva 'pone vote. An
amendment was offered, substituting al vote by
. ballot. The amendment was adopted and the
=solution carried by a majority ofd n/y three—
: thus showing that those who had no right to , bo
proaent held . a controlling influence, or the bal.
aulo of power. ..

inquiry arises, who is Simon Cameron? As
-' a statesman, fame has never associated his name 'I
with the word. Ai a politician, he has always
professed to be a Democrat, end yet that party
only remembers him because of his treachery, and
speaks of him as a traitor. - As a Whig, it is his
boast that he never voted a Whig ticket in his life
—that party being saved from such a disgrace.
As an American and anti-Slavery man, let the
record'speak for itself. At a County Convention,
hold in the Court RGase, in the borough of llar

"SP- Tun PUBLIC Moirrr.—The Philadelphia
North .Arnerican and Miners' Journal will find it
very difficult tp show, Wo think, that the Common
wealth has lost a single dollar, by its deposits of
last year, in country Banks. So long as the leg-1
islature giros On State Treasurer discretionary
authority,-as to. where deposits of piiblio money
may be made t ` - itis distribution amobg the solvent ,
banks of thiltate l is fonndedin justice and expe
diency. Wo are unable to understand why onebr
two city banks should be made the exclusive de
positories of State money, to the exclusion of
country banks. That ti Whig or Demperatic State
Treasurer will have his! preferences, in thus select
ing his banks of Deposit, is very probable, but so
long as tho Commonwealth sustains no loss, these
banks should not be made the object of low parti
san attacks. .

The above is from the Mining Register of
Saturday. Under the circumstances, a more
jesuitical article was never:penned. A man
who has been bought!up body and soul by a
Banking Institution, ought to have some de
cency left, sufficient at leakt, to cover nji his
shame from the , public gase--but he seems to
glory in wearing the 'collar, and unblushingly
charges all the sins of his conlmitting on
others. . • •
Has it not_been t4leacting principle - of the
patent democracy to oppose the deposit of the
public money in Banks ?
Did they not establish the Sub•Tseasury in
order to divorce the Government funds from
these Institutions, because they ; considered
the public deposits unsafe in Banks?
Did not the Present editor of the Register,
-about two years ago; make the present Far
mers' Bank of Schuylkill County, an object of
"low partizan attack" ? Did not his paper
teem with the most foul-mouthed abuse of
. Col. Cake and his Bank—and was it not die
tated from "low partizan feeling," bec'use he
dared array himself against the '`great gun"
of his party ? .
Let the editor of the Register, answer these
questions before be !charges others with im
proper motives, and making "lowPartizan at
tacks" on Banying Institutions.
It is untrue: ibat we made any. "low parti
zan attacks" on Banks--we' never have op
i posed the, deposit-of Public Funds in good
! Banking lnstitution s T--we consider these funds
much safer in such Institutions than in mere
Shaving Shops, and in the hands of Brokers.
But what are the facts? In the Official Nen
' 'ments laid before thb public, it was conclu
sively shown that the 'Public Funds were, a
1 few months before the election , scattered over
the State in various Banks, Saving Institu
tions. or rather "Shaving Shops," Brokers,
I &c., by the State Treasurer to secure, or pur
chase, a. re-election. i And the most singular
Ipart of this disclosure_ is, that those Banks
. which have set the laws of the State at defi
ance.' by not , keeping their notes at par,
were the most favored by -the; State Treas
urer. In one instance, we observe that no
less than $l5O / 000 were deposited in the hands
of an individual in Harrisburg, who is con
nected with a Shaving Shop -in Philadelphia.
Are these proper places for the depositing of
the Public Funds? I Will the editor of that
i. paper dare to deny I that the Public Funds
,
have not, been placed in many of,theie depos
itories for mere speculation? If hot, why is
it.that State Treasurers grow so rich ' iteafew
years on a salary of §lBOO ? Or was it igno,
ranee, as alleged in the ease of Simpson,,the
Treasurer of Philadelphia, that ,caused th'ese
deposits to be so scattered among Brokers,
Shaving Shops, and; hose Banking Institu
tions that set the lima at . defiance, by not
keeping their notes at par ; and thus robbing
the people of thousands of dollars annually,
in the shape of discounts, which these 1
plun
derers put Pinto their Own pockets ?
When the Reg.tcrianswers these questions
we may propound some more.
mar WHIGS AIM ..kmarticsxs.—The N. Y.
Courier closes a long editorial with this lan
gunge:
"We repeat, therefore, what , we said after due
reflection in July lot t----Mever was the Whig party
in a position to render -mister services to the coon
try than at the presentiriting;' and tbeladvocates
of a repeal of the Naturalitittion Laws have only to
bide their time and vote only for those who are
aroteedr,y with them, to iniurn to the country with
in a few years, the restoration of the government
of America, tv American, and the triumph of those
great conservative prinClpler, which, it giving pro- I
tsetion to American Industry and American Enter- I
prise, will, at the ,Nium , time, perpetflate our lie-
publican Institutions and insure to mankind the;
-blersinga of civil and religious liberty."
The above is the true doctrine—wherever
the. Whigs can accomplish the most, the
Americans ought to unite with them—and on
the other hand, whenever the Americans put
forth good candidates,: and have greater pow
er to check evils, the ',Whigs ought to unite
with them. The great questions now agita
ting the whole county, are Opposition to the
Rum power—opposition to the inroads of the i
Roman. Priesthood in the subversion of our
political institutions, arid the withdrawal of ,
Rornan Catholic childr i gt from our Public I
Schools on the groun4 that they, are "god. I
leas," "immoral," and "nurseries of crime,"
thus nurturing animosity.where none ought to
exist, (it having been truly remarked; and I
that by a Catholic, too, that if our children can-I
not unite together in the Public Schools to be
educated, they cannot meet together anywhere
as men)---oppbsition to Oermati Infidelity, an 4
their crude ideas of civil l and religionsliberty—
a change in the naturalization —and the
Protection of American' Industry, against the
low` labor
. and cheap capital of Rurope. On
these points there is but slight difference be
tween the Whigs and AMericane, and all who
can place themselves on this broad platform,
and publicly proclaim their adhesion to these
great principles, provided they are honest and
capable,
and
to command the support of all
honest and upright citizens, it makes no . dif ferenee to what 'party they may have tbrmerly
belonged.. We all of course have our indi ;
vidtml preferences, and prefer supporting those
with whom we have heretofore acted, but his
the duty of all right thinking citizens always
to, sacrifice men when_ vital principles are at
stake. When such feelings prevail more gen
, erally aniong the people, mere party backs,
and pot-house demagogues, Will tremble at the
majesty of the ballot box.

Coal Ito much easier used and better adapted

from the last Report of Mr. Nicobi to the
Board of Managers;
The entire' practicability of wing Anifirocite
coal as fuel fur locomotives, for long as Weil as
short distances, may now be considered Ai fully
established by our daily experience. Eighty-five
per cent. of all our coal transportation, durkog the
past year, has been done by locomotives Miming
this fuel exclusively, and without experiencing
any difficulties beyond the control of the engineer
er fireman. •
The gradual, shbstitation of coal. for, *mil in'
more of our engines, and the probable chntinq
anee of the recent decline in value of materials
and labor, will enable na to secure a marked re
duction in the expenses of this Depart Mont for
the ensuing year.

and returning the

$1 96 per cord.

Showing a difference of nearly tent.eelits
per ton in favor of Coal. One ton' Coal
will produce as much steam as a cord ''and .a
fourth of wood, and is equal in power tOfearly
two cords of wet ivood. Bitumincius' , , Coal
for Locomotives is liable to many objai,:tions,
and is attended with considerable diffithilty in
its 'use as fuel, unless it is coked, and that
is too expensive and deteriorating a process
for it to undergo.
Our blacksmiths have used Anthracite Coal
excluiively in their shops, for the last:twenty
years. They would use no other kind of fuel
if furnished gratis: •
ANTHRACITE FOR LOCOMOTIVES :4t watr'but a
few years ago, when a celebrated chemist !Aid to a
man, who bad offered for analysis some specimens
of Anthracite coal - -"If you will take sour„ 'stand
on that coal-field, on the day of judgmeno will
engage you will be the last nian burned.” was
still later that the "Pioneer Furnace," yet iliblast,
iu Pottsville, first established. the fact, thit, iron
could be reduced from the ore with Anthracite; a
discovery which has built up fine of the greatest
industrial interests in this country. And;:lt was
still later that this coal was employed jn rmning
steamboats. It is now used, with the best success.,
in ordinary smith's fires. It is now used Stitisfae
torily in 'Locomotives. But its use in LoCome
tives-irill'be still more- perfected, until is as
much established fact in Railroad operations
as is the use of anthracite and of gas in die do
mestic operations of cities.
ANTIIP.ACITE 1 , 0 BLACKSMITH'S FIHES.—We
mentioned last week, that in machine-ahori about
Pottsville, anthrncito was used exclueilly fur
blacksmith's fires. 'On a trip this :week to7.Potts
vino, we were pleased to witness the suet essful
manner in which it is used. We saw someiienty
forges in one room, none of them baying charinies,
and all of them blazing with clear fires, thelflames
rising two or.three feet from the coal. TorStmiths .
accustomed to the - use of anthracite, therais no
difficulty in working it. It would work skqually
as well in any forge. Anthracite is elowerflo ig
nite than t.uniberland coal, and is more. tiff, or
cannot be quite as easily pushed aside, make
room for :the iron
.to be: heated. The anqtracite
coal has not the least injurious effect on the iron,
there being no sulphur in it.

State, had fit one time a contract for to tang
over 1000 ears, belonging to the navigatinn and

built to order 700 cars with the wooden fpring,
and obtained the contract for their repair,4o was
enabled to compare the relative expense ft:apply

the result of three years' experience, he found the

third that of steel, and the cost of main4nanco
less than one-half. Finding, in addition : to this

SicirDAßlsG ATTEMPT TO MURDER A LADY.
—On Monday evening, between '6 and 7
o'clock, a tall man, enveloped in a cloak and
much disguised, entered very quietly, by
means of a false key the residence of Mr. Na
thaniel C. Bishop, No. 991 Broadway, ancl
proceeded immediately to the parlor, where
MrS. Bishop was engaged in playing on the
piano, and instantly discharged a )pistol at
her, but fortunately without effect, as the ball
milsed its aim and passed through pane of
glass, striking the brick wall of a building
nearly. adjoining. The rascal, then left as
suddenly as he had entered, and though two
of the servants, who heard the 'report the
pistol, were at the parlor door iminediately
afterwards, they could only catch a glimpse at
hini. The alarm was given and a policeman
obtained; but too late to effect the:arrest of
theiperpetratoi.' Mrs. Bishop was so fright
ened that she fainted, and it' 'tvas some time
before she . could be• restored to consciousness.
Who the villain is, neither Mrs. B. nor her
husband can , imagine;: as they are not aware
of having given serious offence to any one.—
Abbut 3 o'clock on the same afternoon, a tall
mai), with bine eyes and black hair, wearing
a cloak, called at the house and inquired for
Bishop,- who was then out, and this in
dividual is doubtless'the , one who afteri - ards
attempted At . take her — life. Previous to en
tering the parlor'; the Villain - had extinguished
the gas in the hall, and there:heihg no light
iu the parlor.exeept what was emitted, from
•." the .fire,, Mrs„ B. was unabld; even to catch a
glimpse• , . of his faCe. An attempt similar in
character to. the above was made to shoot
.31is: B. while she was at the residence of her
brother, Captain Fletcher, at Tarrytown, on
heetwentieth birth-day, the 4th ot. September
last; but this•was 'also unsuccessful, as Mrs.
B.' was unharmed. The villain in that in
stance also escaped tietection. • The police
are using every exertion to ascertain who is
the perpetrator of the outrage, with a view to
his arrest, and it is much to be hoped that
'they inay be successful, as the family are fear
ful that he may make another and perhaps
more successful attempt upon the life of the
lady. Journal of Commerce,

estimates the property, money, and labor

to California from 1849 to 1851, at ,$450,000,-

time at $249,000,000, leaving a l balance of
$180,000,000 against the Golden State. Be
sides this loss in valuables, transferred.from

lieved that the product has been fruitful of
evil to this country, by stimulating specula
tions and inducing over-importations of for

transferred from the Old States, and which
remained unproductive, we add the immense

Jones, in -a lath number of the &ientific
American, made the following sensible re
marks on tEs:subject, and we commend them
to the attention of Railroad . Companies gen
erally, asworthy of serious consideration:
"It has often occurred to me that railroad
companies Would gain much by planting the
wade land on •cazh- side of the track with
treo. The locust, for instance, which will
grow in any soil,, requires no attention, and is
of rapid growth. The advantages would be,
first a refreshing shade. Second. a protec
tion from the dust, by retaining the moisture.
Third, strength to embankments, andlourth,
sufficient timber, and superior to any other s
for all the ties on the road ; a tree will grow
sufficiently large in ten or fifteen years."
