THE TETTE =AIMEE HELIEF;, It is really not a matter of the first import- mice whether the Banks resume in January - or in April. The great object that the Legis lature should . keep in view is the immediate, radical reformation of the system, preparatory: to the deliberate action of t 4 new Legislature; upon the ,system itself. The Legislature, by de cided majorities, has decided in fav,Or oY legaliz-1 Ing tampon anon and of giving time., - ,Tho,preient difference among members is not .as to:the propriety of this legalization Cu' the principle of giving time, but ineinti, as to the extent ef i time to be given. We have not; the slightest hesitation in saying • that the great reform which the people mostl sincerely: expect and, , demand can „bet secured by passing , the' Senate bill, as; amended by our highly accomplished ,and : . or 1 thodox Senator, Mr. Bnownz--Ne ',mean. to fix the date of resumption in April- 7 theu it i _the duty of the House ',to . agree to; true "relief" is not the tempOiery:eiXpedient contained in any bill. These expedients ma relieve present distress, protect many 'from im mediate loss, and provide means for `,thi poor against the inclemencies of the 'comin winter; but the relief we advocate, and she insist upon., is based upon thos'e enduring Princi pies by the neglect of which we have been brought to the troubles that now beset us.

WHAT THE WHIGS THOUGHT Ole SEDGE • It will be remembered, says tha Tedford Gazette, that thriT9ridorls 4 . 24 is repealed by Oongreas four years after its establishment.

Yet the very politicians who tared and swore so terribly at the passage of the bill repealing the Tariff of '42, and cursed David Wilmot so bitterly for lending it his orpport, are now warmly advocating Mr. Wilmot's claims to the Governorahip of Pennsylvania.

The Journal of yesterday wee read end approved, Mr. L tosaou promoted the petition of oltisens of Car bon county, praying for the passage of a law affording relief to the banks in their present embarrassment; which was referred to the select committee. Mr. HARM road in place a bill for the relief of Wil son K. Potts. Mr. Potts bad been appointed a clerk of Butler county, the Court of Common Pleas, and Or phans' Court, for an unexpired term of two months, and it was unfair that he should he charged the hill US on his commission and the bill releaeea him from the pay ment of that Via. The bill was passed through its va rious stages, and then passed finalLv for the concurrence of the House. , • • . Mr. JORDAN reported back from the select committee bill regulating the banks of this Commonwealth; which wee laid upon the table. Mr. linowns reported back from the Select • commit tee a joint resolution relative to the control and re straint by Congress of the circulation of paper money, and moved that it ba now considered. The motion was agreed to. A message was received from the Moue° that that body had concurred In certain Senate bills, and bad passed a resolution providing for the payment of the expenses of the present extra session of the Legislatule. Mr. BROWNE said that it might be doubted whether Congress possessed the power referred to In the measure he had reported, but It wee certain that there would be no uniform currency until control of the matter was vested in some ouch general legislative body as the Congress of the United States. State Legislatures wore influenced by local sentiment, and the result was that their action was various. Congress has the right to es tablish a general law of bankruptcy. Suppose such a law were passed, providing that any bank which should refuge to pay specie for its notes should at once go Into assignment. In that way Con gress might have control of the subject; but the measure might be a harsh one, and there might be unwillingness to resort to it. Tho Constitution should be so amended as to vest in Congress power to control and restrain the circulation of paper money. The majority of reflective minds favor a more enlarged basis of metallic currency as the only guard against bank disastere. Mr. TAGGART believed that to enlarge the powers of Congress, and to curtail those of the States, were held to be characteristics of 'Federalism If so, then the proposition made its introducer a Federalist. Me. Seovisto said that the gentleman had exptessed his opinion of the resolution. Mr. linowtm thought it very grange that thegentle man from Northumberland should mate the objection he bad. The Republican party,to which that gentleman belonged had contended with great earnestness and de • termination that tiongrese should have the control of the domestics affairs of our citizens in the Territories, Instead of leaving those people to form their own ital. lotions in their own way. The gentleman's wee the blacker Federation, and the most indefensible. It ap peared the gentleman and his party were reconsidering their recent notion on the subject. Mr. (item moved the following substitute for the resolution That, in Ike fildnion'of the Legislature, this present anointed embarramment pf the country has resulted from the operation of the Earfff act el lB4B, and the mo dification thereof made by the last Congress, whereby American industry has been stricken down, and gold and silver of the country has been exported to pay for those things which should have been manufactured at home) , Mr. Dams desired to know whether Judge Wilmot, ,the Republican candidate for Governor, did not vote for that very tariff of 1840 Mr. Cosier admitted that Judge Wilmot did vote for that tariff. Mr. Waxen then inquired whether Judge Wilmot was not responsible for .the present embarrassment under the very terms of the gentleman's resolution? Judge Wilmot had, at York. denied the' charge that be was not a Democrat, and of course asserted that he was as great a free Xrgder now as he was before he had gone over to the Republicans. Mr. Gastaw made a Repuldicap stump speech, fol lowed by Mr. Coffey in the same strain. The discussion was continued at great length an poli tics generally, and not with reference to the resolution particularly. Motions were made that mien tho Senate adjourns, it adjourn until this afternoon at three o'clock, until Monday, at three o'clock P. M., and until Monday, at o'clock A.

Mr. Strati moved the following resolution : Resolved, That When this House 'adjourn, it ad journ to meet at three o'clock this afternoon. The resoint.lon was reed twice and adopted. Mr. KM:WYMAN moved that the House proceed to con sider Senate bill providing for the resumption of specie payments by the banks and the relief of debtors; which was agreed to. On motion of Mr. LONGlkigil, the Mouse suspended the role reonizingthe bill to be considered In Committee of the Mole, end proverb() to eons:vier:lV by sections in the Mouse. The first section being before the Mena, ' in lif,4o..suroutt umredjitemend by inserting a,ftor the anode fn:de" the words since the list day oTire;Fem ber, A.D. 1867." The bill as it stood, he said, removed the penalty Im osed by the sot of '5O, by -which the charter of any bank was forfeited lilt diecounted without the remalsite amount of speck+. If tbe,binke, reylous to the time of I auspension, had thus dieconnfsfl and. brought on the present state of affairs, the Demmehad pp right to ex cuse them ; ' they should:suffer the penalty and forfeit their charter. The banks did not ask it. ,They (lid not acknowledge that they hod violated, the law previous to the time of suspension, and his amendment was to limit the clangs, cawing SUM after the time of their anspenaion. Mr KAUFFMAN concurred in the views of the gentle. man and hoped the amendment would be adopted. The question wet taken, and the amendment was agreed to. Mr. JormeroX, of Bucks, =red to amend by striking out the words second Monday of April A.D. 1868," in the clause suspending the penaltle* incurred by the banks op to that time, and insert the words third Monday of January, A. D. lase." his object was to place the time su f f iciently distant in the future to give the next Legislature, who could act Intelligibly upon it, an opportunity of doing so. By 'that time the banks will prepare astatenu t it Allowing their condition; and if they deserved fur er relief, and the necessities of the business cemmtibi jr demanded li, he bad no doubt but that it would be granted. Mr. Keurestea moved to amend the amendment by striking oat "8" in 1858, and inserting fir" so that it would reed "1869." Mr. 'Mutat asked the gentleman to modify his amend• meat by adding " unless (Moravia. elected by the Legis lature." Mr. Falun/As so modified his amendment. Mr. Minute said the banks would base their calcula tions upon the time granted them; and would go on transacting their business and making discounts ac cordingly. - It the time wait only extended to January, 1858, as proposed by the gentleman from Dueits, the benefit of the relief measure would Inure sue eely to the banks, who would pot extend thel4basiness or discounts at all, but would wind "up their Wellness and' prePare for resamption.: Such a COUVSES.OII the pieta the banks would utterly ruin and destroy the merchants manu facturers, and business men of the community. lie hoped the amendment of the gentlemen from Lancaster; as modified by Wrong, would,be adopted. Mr. Itsimmus proposed to extend the *nets 1859, because such an extension was demended by the interests of the community which he represented. Lancaster county was largely engaged in nianufeeturing; she hod thousands of Rep engaged directlynr,indirectly in menu , factoring iron, and if relief was not granted in thirty days, every one of them (Nuld. be thrown out of employ [ ment, To merely extend the time for three months would he no relief to them, and they bid better go home without doing anything than to adopt the amendment of the gentleman from Ducks. Ile trusted that his amendment, as incsjided, would receive the sanction of the House. , Mr, LONOAKISR was oppotoe irp affording Vegas' dis counting privileges to the banlis. elihey pould not now redeem their notes in circulation andpay theb dem. sitors, and yet the Legislature was called upon to 'give them more time to flood the country with their irre deemable lanes. It, was necessary that the House should legislate for the hepetit of thedebtors of the banks, whose liabilities were maw felling due, but, in doing go, they should fix as short a time as possible, and let them ell try to work up to it. The nexcLestilature would assemble in a few months ' and if the System was working to the alblectlen of the people, and it was deemed necessary to eaten/ the time, it could then be done. The difficulties lee ,were Mug under we had brought onby extravagance in all the pursulte of life, and legislation should be directed with a jingle eye to retrenchment, Mr. Minima *grand with the gentleman from Mont gomery, (Mr. LODPIEOF,9 that these difficulties bad boon brought en by over-trading AD§ extravagance, but ho thought that if the large crops of the West could be got Into market, they would add greatly to the Wielth of the country, and restore things to their former footing. He argued. tbat It was necessary to extend the time at least to July, In order to grant the business community relief and give them oppotypejty of enjoying the benefits these crops would confer. • Mr, Clatuouu woe in fatrort4 Oieg time within the power of the next Legislature, w h o could extend it if it was necessary. Ile hoped-. the aniendments pi/weed would be yoted down, and that the House would. adopt the bill as Jlt good. He was in fever of extending the Hole to March or April, but would not agree to placing it beyond the seesion gm pat Legislature.

The amendment was agreed to. Mr. Jneosos moved to amend by Inserting after the word " incurred" the words " or that may hereafter be incurred before the second Monday of April," stating that there were now come banks paying specie who might wish to :suspend and come under the provisions of the act before 'the thae'explred, and his object was to afford them this opportunity. The amendment was agreed te. Mr. LONGIAGRit mid that he did not wish to occupy the time of the House in any lengthy remarks, but be felt that his position was a peculiar one, and desired to explain the veto he was about to give. Ile was a De mocrat, and as such might be expected to oppose this bill ; but the magnitude and importance of the present legislation rose far higher than party consideration. As a Democrat, he was opposed to the banking system as it now existed. Re hellered that it required radical reform; but there were other citeemsteneall Willed, demanded their attention and prompt action. They had been called to gether to legislate for the people Every one knew that the country was laboring under a great financial difficulty, and It was their duty to relieve it so far as they could. For his part, ho would do all that he could and cast his vote In favor of the people. Ile was satis• tied that, nutwithstanding the relief the Legislature might afford, the community would still continue to ,antler. There wan no act of theirs that could avert the dreadful consequence' of the store, which wee now hanging Over the heade pf many who had engaged In mercantile' and datiuulacturiag pursuits. 'Vey were now standing Upon the edit° of a precipice, opening to them the great chum of financial ruin, into whose depths many matt inevitably be plunged ; but acme, he ,hoped, would bo rescued by the remedies new proposed.. Ile was willing fo make the attempt, and hoped It would be successful. While the hill, In some of its fee toren, was objectionable, he was willing to accept It In a !obit of compromise. &ATl:ge t , Cound'a y sae sti*lbp, t wed fife (fgt.' duty' reatue the passengers, and 'then attempt sate, perhaps - , a worthless vessel from sinking. If he Was re-elected a member to the Rouse, he would do all in his power to make such reforms in the banking system as might be deemed advisable. If he erred in hisjadgment to the remedies now proposed, he would have the proud consciousness to knew that he had made the attempt, and if any suffering is alleviated oriwevented, he would hake tie satlifitetiou of receiving We prayers and bless ings of a grateful people: 'ln casting his vote, beVoted now for the'pebple, and wee hereafter to con demn the banks, and even wiml them from existence. dlr.

Re would vote against the proviso, for the raison that It was unequal and un just. Some of the banks issued no notes under the denomination of ten 'dollard, wbilerthe eittalatidu of others was aimed, entirely in Ilse-doper notes. These banks would pot "resets any benefit from the suspen mien, bercuso they would be obliged to redeem all their circulation, ythi,lat Aro proviso wppid not have any bearlpg_upou Am other bankli. , , Mr. Mecca, and 'br memhers from the country, also opposed tJ,te mot fhe pia it would Injure country banks, whose"' circulation was almost ' altogether In notes of the denomination of fire dollar' The question was taken, and the proviso was not agreed to. Mr. Ounce moved. to 'amend by adding the following I proviso: Provided, That the State banks shall 'redeeat their ten-dollar Issues In specie. He offered this to obviate lhodiSKu).ly *Mel? geMlennirt complained of, and still afford Louie relief jo the Comthunity.
