On motion of Mr. M'ELWEE, the House of Representatives, on yesterday, authorized the Govcrnn to borrow $1,000.- 000, on the faith of the commonwealth from the tinned Stales bank, to meet the ilenciency in the 1 reastiry to pay the inter est, and repair the public. Works The loan is to be temporary or permanent, at the dig crelioh of tile Governor, anil to be made hv tho bank in the legal currency of the consti tution or its equivalent, according to the provisions o f its charier. The following in tSo provision referred to : "And the said corporation shall also, whenever required by law advance on per manent loan any sum or stuns, not exceeding in thn whole six millions of dollars, and for -cacti sum ol monev so lounuu snuu reciuve from the commonwealth a negotiable cer tificate of stock, reimbursable on the third day bi March, ono thousand eight hundred anil sixty-eight, transferable at the Bank of Pennsylvania) or such other place as the legislature may hereafter designate, bearing an ihtrrbst of cither four or (ivo per cent, per annum, payable half yearly, at lho Bank of Pennsylvania, or such other place as the legislature may Iie.eafter designate, or as the law requiring such loan may determine) and in case the intercit chall he live per cent, shall pay the commonwealth one hun dred and ten dollars in mnliey for each hun dted dollars of stock, oi if tho Interest he four ptr cent, shall pay one hundred dollars in money for each hundred dollars" of slock." Reporter. Flour. The most said in the fewest woids and the best, upon tho subject of the low price of this article, is in the following from the Dayton Whig" Chronicle, of March 12. It is now just thirty days sinco the open ing of canal navigation al this place. In that month more than thirty thousand bar rels of flour have been received by ihe ca nal, There is a strong pi obability" that this activity in the Hour market will be kept up till mid-summer; for two sufficient reasons. First, because the supply is very great, and next, because it is the best remittance to New York and Boston, which the barter and traffic system, of tins day allows. The difference of exchange b'etwcoo bankable funds here) and specie funds in New York is alone, an ample profit. Should the com ing crop be a full ouoof which there is now no manner of doubt, the receipts by the ca nal for 1840, will nearly double those of a ny former year. ' Tho average price of flour at this placo during last month has been about S3 50 per barrel, 1 he price has not been regulated so much by the rurrenry as many too has tily suppose. The efficient cause in reduc ing the price of flour is tho redundant sup ply, Yu luvo passed through the irausi turn state from a season of deficiency to one of abundance, and are now exporting flour I roil) all he interior parts lo the Atlantic ports mid iheiice to Eiitope.
