The Supreme Court, which by its fanaticism
bait lost the respect and veneration of the nation,
announces' leading doctrine in this use,.bas
Which .should be fully appreciated. This doc
trine is that - the Constitutton has created !Fright'
of property in slaves, and that as 'tact property,
they may be taken into Ofe territories, and (the
property cif,their masterkin them Must. be main,
tamed there in defiance of any legislation what
ever. This is the leading, principle of Jedge
. Tanio's opinion, antithe doctrine etirries the po.
litical Institution 'of Slavery into the Free States

POTTSTOWa Bitter Awe teallois.—We are in. fa
vor of do increase of banking capital ito accom
modate those sections in need thereof; but, still
moreyearinly iti favor of, a general banking law,
iisAlculated to meet the 'wants. --lot the-. hairiness
public in a,morellberal, protective sense. If the
latter is nc)t at the present tinieleasible, then by
all moans, extend banking capital to that commu
nity possoSsing the, amount of buil-nisei, to employ
it profitably!. Pottsbiwn bay made application to
the Legislature, for thii incorporation lofl a. Bank
in that flourishing Borough. The bill for the put-
pose has passed the senate, and a favorable !open
on . it-from the Blink Committee Of the Rouse, ren-
dors its passage far from problematical. , - A. glance
at the stale of-affairs at Pottstown sixbibits the
fact that the numbat, of inbabitan6 interested
within the business Sphere -of Pottstown, is not
less than forty thousand, engaged in Various man
ufacturing enterprise's, mechanical trlides and 4..
ricalturo, in which capital to the amount of $lO,-
135,000 is invested.' Now Pottstown is situated
18 miles from Readingi. 20 from Norristown; 25
front West Chester, and about..3ofroce Allenfown.
At each of the places enumerated, a lbank is loca
ted: All however, have more demands upon them
for discounts, within a circuit to each lof thigmiles,
-than they can . accommodate; and the busineo
.
_.- -.
Me i n of Pottstown have not a director in' eitheref
itie Bunks, that resides within Eve Miles of Potts
town. ;. / .
With this array of. facts before us; we can read
ily believe Ott for the purpose's bf legitimate
basilicas, a Bank located at Pottstown would be .
most serviceable to . theic business community.. It
would also accommodate portions of Berke, Ches.
tor and Montgomery counties, which under exist
ing
,eircu Di/An:mos, arc almost entirely cut off from
Lanking facilities. From 'rho array -of . responai,
blo nein:6 attachod to the petition ter theincortio.:
ration of the Bank of Pottstown, we feel assured
that it will be no "shawl g shop," hut an institn
'lion that would be a ' honor and benelleto tho
conimenity in which it . proposed l to locate it.
We look cbarilyupon an increase of special
ban king priviicycsln any community, unless.pos
itively assure that', the business Wants of that
community 'imperatively demand it. Toe many
mere shaving institutions, in, the,shape of banks,
saving fund, cte z , already exist, end we are utter
ly opposed to !their multiplication. In the in=
'stance however, of the application for the incor
poration of a Bank at Tottstown,t i we think the
factsviarrant the Legislature in granting it. If
similar epplicatibas to the Legislature, in every
case were as unexceptionable as this, the-people
of Penusyania would have lei's cause ;o feel
alarmed un this stibject.,

`St. Patrick's Day.- 7 4..bntrary to Oecedhat, the
anniversary on Tuesday Butt of the birth of the Patron
faint of Ireland, was In'the neather
_line, a day of an.
usual . brilliancy. The sky was nearly, cloudless All day,
'while the Sun's beams were Tklaylsh in warmth. larthe
morning, an effigy of St. Patrick, his. neck decorlited
with a string of potatoes, was discovered banging from a
telegraph wire at Centro and Market streets. About 8
o'clock it was removed by order of the ,Chief Burgess.
This practice is condemnatory. It is
, waeng, being
provocative of breach of the peace. In the evening,
the Illhernlan Society observed the anniversary by a
supper at the Town Ball. It was s spirited affair. eau ;
sing an fratnenseleposiffng of bricks In any quantity .
of modern tiles.
Thie'restivity which is indulged In by the admirers of
the Patron Saint, or those who love a social hour, must
'degenerate even with the Sona tf Erin themselves, if.
macre political in its cen3plexion. On .Tuesday evening
A political harangue was delivered by Ur. Hughes; while
a tierinall politician, who cannot be supposed to be an
ardent admirer of St. Patrick. was there. To introduce
party matters, and phillipics against stavery,at a gather. ,
leg of the character of that of Tuesday evening, is not
only bad taste, but an insult to the memory of the great
exterminstor . of snakes. •

Tut NEXT 11ot:reg.—The impression prevails to
some extent, that the Democrats have already
chosen a sufficient number of members to insure a
majority in the next House of Representatives:—
Th e Washington Union, however, shows that this'
impression is not only erroneous, but that they
have yet to gain seven members over their strength
in the last Ilotise. The gain, too, is to 'be made
in the thirteen States yet to elect, which at the
Congressitinal elections returned forty-seven Dem

AFFAIRS IR KARiAS—CAIISE OP Gov. GEARY'S
RESIGEATION.—The AL Louis Democrat publishes
a statement relative tio affairs in Kansas, given by
Gov. Geary. The cause of the resignation of Gov.
Geary is said to have been the failure of Presi
dent Pierce to fulfil the pledges made at the time
the appointment was conferred, to support him
(Gov. G.) with the power of the army and militia,
and the means of the Treasury, if necessary; but,
instead of receiving-this aid, he has paid-$12,Q00
out of his own pockht to meet the expenses of the
adminietraticrn, hes been refused the aid and sap
port of the military under the most urgent, eir
eumitatMes, and thwarted by the Judiciary of the
Territyy in every possible manner. The Gover
nor states that not less than fifty men were under
oath, from the day he entered the Territory until
be left it, to assassinate him, - provided his official
career did.not meet their approbation.
The Governor regrets the steps ho has been
I obliged to take, and feels confident that, had the
promised assistance been rendered him, be could
lava administered the affairs of the Territory in a
manneracceptable to the honest settlers Of both
sides: In relation to the outrages committed by
the pro-slavery men, he says onehalf has not,
been told. Be pronounees the murder of Baffum
by Hays the most cold-blooded and atrocious af
fair ever witnessed. Ws version of the Sherrard
affair is similar to those already. published. He
says,however, that the account publised in the
Republican, over the signature of l'Jones," is a
tissue of falsehoods.
The Governor complains much of the obstrue s
Lions and mutilations ‘ of his official correspon
dence. Ile says mail bags were Constantly open
. ,ed, and all.objectionable matter to or from him,
'extracted. He thinks the establishment of a Sla
very Constitution in Kansas inevitable.
Governor Geary's farewell address to the pee
pleof Kansas• has been published. It gives 'a

great-body of the people of the Territory are con
'^e.ezvative and law-abiding, and willing to make
sactifiees for the sake of peace, while the troubles
havkheen occasioned by ambitious schemers, who
havaino special interest in the welfare ofAhe Ter
who never desired peace; nor will they al
lowlit to continue while they have the power to
,yl4orent it. •
