ACTION PROPOOED.—Gov. Collier, of Ala-'

Satires from that State cxecpi Mr. qobbt
calling the attention of the:GOvernor to
the condition of things at Washington,
and the attempted aggression of the North
upon Southern rights, &e,, in the election
of a Speaker, and concluding as follows :
"We think we are well acquainted with
the spirit of ,the people of Alabama, and
we belieie that it is their fixed purpose
never to submit to the threatened encroach
ment on their rights ; that they will nev
er submit to any act of the Government of
the United States, which excludes slavery
from the territory acquired from Mexico,
and which is the property of the States of
this Union ; that they will never submit
to any act of the Government abolishing
slavery in the District of Columbia, and
that they will demand that the praviaions
of the Constitution in regard to their pro
perty shall be faithfully observed. We
trust that no further aggression will be made
upon the rights of the slave-holding States,
but we regard the existing state of affairs
as so serious that we cannot forbear from
making this communication to you."
The Governor, in his messago,aceoni-
panying this letter, says :
"The time for decided action hits *writ

4T.lte istAxtmation from Santa Fe that the
inhabitants were, about to organise a terri
toriaFgovernment. had caused the greatest
excitement at Austin, Texas. Many were
for marching an armed force thither and
putting down the rebels, as they were term
ed. The Austin Gazette advises delay
until the receipt of the President's message,
and at all events that the Texans should
not precipitate a crisis, or complicate mat
ters by violence. It still reiterates a deter
mination to have Santa Fe, and says :
Rather than surrender to the usurpation of
the General Government one inch of our
blood-won territory, let every human hab
itation in Santa Fe be levelled to the earth,
and us, it the necessity of the case requires
it, be buried beneath the ruins."
You don't stay so? Wonder whose
blood it was that won Santa Fe t We
have a vivid recollection of reading, in a
message of one James K. Polk, an account
of the capture of Santa Fe by the Anasti
can troops under Gen. Kearney, without
ihe shedding of any blood al all, and this
4
event took place eubs e sent to the annex
ation of Texas to th 0
led States. If
our folks had only knciwn that Santa Fe
was all the time a part of Texas, and that
they were making war upon their young
and Sable sister, they might have saved
themselves a deal of ammunition and horse
flesh ; but it seems they didn't then knew
the difference between Mexicans and TeX
ans. Why didn't you tell us this betel*.

THE UNION
It is truly gratifying to observe the ex-
Invasions of regard for, and attachment to
the Union, which have recently been call
ed forth, apparently, in response to the
threats of disunion which have lately gone
forth from our legislative halls. At a re-
cent celebration of the anniversary of the
landing of the Plymouth Pilgrims, in
Charleston, South Carolina, which has al
ways been considered the , hot bed from
whence disunion reared its snaky crest, a
number of patriotic toasts were proposed,
and speeches were made upon the occasion,
from which we infer the strongest attach
ment to the union of the states.
The following toast was proposed :

Burning of the Comity Prison—

About 3 . o'clock on Monday morning Tait our
citizen. were roused from their slumbire by the
startling cry of "Fine I" prising from the discov

were but two persons confined in the prison at the

gentlemen residing near the prison, whose atten

of Markman, and who, upon rising from his
bed, found the flames already bursting from one
of the windows of Musselman's room. From the
progress the fire bed made, it ie inferred that it
must have been homing for some time—probably
an hour. The alarm was of course immediately
given; but some delay ensuing before the Sheriff s
family (occupying the first story of the building)
could be roma, and the advanced hour of the
night preventing a prompt gathering of the cid
sow diet saes spread rapidly and man envelop

tive all efforts on the part of the firemen and ;ki

interior of the building was burned out, with a
portion of the 1360Iiire personal effects, and there
remains 'of the County Prison nothing but the
burnt and blackened walls.
The saddeit put of the dory, however, remains
to be told. As soon as an entrance to the build

in vain. The flames had progressed so far as to

Is the Senate, on Friday, Mr. Cass galled up

with Austria, and addressed the Senate at length

cruel wars of conquest in India and Algiers wa
ted by England . sod Prince, and the shameful
subversion of the Eepnblia of Rome by the latter,
are unnoticed. If Gen. Caw was sincere in expres

not pounce down, upon poor, weak. imbecile Ana

we shall have tried all the stations of Christendom
in turn, it would Ulm° more than right that we
should eorne down front Oat position and stand a
trial also before some court of indignation. Mr.
Hale did not know, however, who should try na
Certainly none of the nations we had condemned,
for they would nut be our peers. Suppose the
sovereign of Turkey, who Mr. Cave says has pro
ved himself a better Christian than many other
powers of the earth, should 'yule constitute a
court of indignation to try us. Suppose, also, he
should have seen a paper published near this place
which announced that men, women and children
are bought and sold like cattle in the slave sham
bles of this city, the capital of the model Republic,
bearing the honored name of the Father of Amer
ican liberties. Would it not appear that we had
been, and were continuing to be, guilty of oppres
sion' great eriddeep — as" any width Austria, Rus
sia, or France had committed I Truth and Jus
tice would reply in the affirmative, and Mr. Hale
feared it would appear that the Sultan of Turkey
was not only a better Christian than we, but a bet
ter Republican also!
On Monday, Mr. CLAY made an able speech in
opposition to Mr. Cass' resolution. 'He sympa
thized as much as any gentleman with the unfor
tunate Hungarian patriots. and wee prepared to
go as far as the farthest in support of any scheme
calculated to furnish them support. Dot it was
bad policy which the Penal". from Michigan pro-
posed to adopt. Instead of imapending diplomat
le relations with Austria, he (Mr Clay) would send
to that Government some enlightened citizen, who
could command the confidence of the country, to
sue for Hungary—to plead bee cause, and endea
vor to obtain fur her that redress and considera
tion which ber wrongs and her bravery were enti
tled to. The object of foreign missions was not
to benefit the country to which we send represen•
rives, but to protect American interests ;bread.
It was proposed, because of our abhorrence of
Austrian butcheries, and Austria's disregard of
Hungarian independence, to famish American
merchants and sailors—to deprive our country of
whatever advantage might be derived from the di
plomatic relations extating between the two coun
triee—such a course could be justified by no ar
gtunent whatever.
Mr. Clay also proceeded to show by cogent ar
gument and familiar illustrations, that if the pre
cedent for the principle in question were establish
ed, there was no limitation, qualification or restric
tion as to how Lir, or on what subject, whether re
ligioua, more!, or What not, could it net be adopt
ed. The course proposed to be pursued wu in
direct contradiction to the policy laid down* and
followed by Washington, and every administra
tion to the present time. If we were to become
the censors of nations, where sure we to stop, and
why should we look to the cause of Hungary
atom I Why not take ep the cause of Ireland,
and still more that of unhappy Rome, which had
been alluded to 1
In conclusion, Mr. Clay did not think that it
became the Senate to take such unnecessary and
perilous round as had been proposed, and hoped
that the Senate would at once reject the proposi
lion without reference or limitation.
Oa Tuesday, In the Senate: Hr. Urea , ' pro

lion to lay the resolutions cm the table failed by a
vote of 11 to 40. Mr. Chase having secured the

Abatement of State Tax,
rirThough the election of Col. Barr to the
Speakership of the Senate (says the Lancaster
Tribune) was mainly accomplished by Whig votes,
it cannot of course be regarded as a party triumph ;
and yet it is a result at which the Whigs, as a par
ty, have reason to feel gratitlod. It has secured
to them a fair division of the other officers of the
House, and in the appoint mont of Committees they
have had a just proportion of honors awarded to
them. It has also secured to them a fair and lib
eral presiding ollicer in place of a bitter and pro
scriptive partizan, and has raised up an impassa
ble barrier against the system of partizan legisla
tion which threatened to deprive the Whig party
of its just proportion of representation in the coun
cils of the State. Upon the tariff, too,—the cur
rency,—alavery,—and other momentous questions,
we may now expect to sae the Senate refits:tin
the popular voice, instead of that of owre faction,
and standing up boldly in dnfence of the rights
and interests—the sentiments and feelings—of
Pennsylvania. Altogether we regard the election
of Col. Bost as a fortunate circumstance, believing
as we do that it will exercise a wholesome influ
ence upon the legislation of the Session.
A GLEAM OF LlGHT.—Those who have
perused the snarl message of the Governor, have
no doubt been Muck, as we were, with the high.
ly improved condition of the finances of the State,
as exhibited in the lucid details of that excellent
document. The payment of 1421,465.56 of the
public debt, daring the year ending on the let of
December, 1849, is a fact which marks a new era
In the history of Pennsylvania. Our State has
been laboring under the weight of an enormous
debt for years; and withodt liquidating * single
dollar of the principle, it has goon on to increase
from year to year, wider the improvidence and
recklessness of Loeofcco Administrations, until,
under the immediate predecessor of Gov. John
ston. it reached the sum of $40,000,000. This
was the condition i which the present Whig Ad
ministration firundlhe finances of the State ; and
Gov. Johnston, with the most ardent and patriotic
devotion, immediately addressed himself to the
task of .deviaing measurer to arrest the downwind
tendency of efflux. Hy the wise and judicious
measures which be urged upon the attention of
the last Legislature, he has succeeded in not only
arresting the rapid accumulation of the public debt,
but in putting it in a train of regular and rapid
liquidation. The amount received on account of
the sinking fund, for the year ending December
Ist, 1849, was $227,829.01 ; while the estimated
amount fee the year ending Dee. ist, 1050,4 s
$371,000. This sum, at the present price of the
State, stock, would extinguish more than FOUR
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS OP
THE STATE DEBT, during the present year.
With these gratifying remits already attained, and
and in immediate prospect, it iseam to forme that
the bugs indebtedness.of the State, should there
be a continuance of Whig policy, will, in, a very
'kW years be entirely Tripod away. ,

TgneinLß ACOIDENTO-000 of those
heart rending casualties, which have be
come too frequent of late on t h a, railroads
of this and all the other States, occurred on
Thursday last, on the Central road, be
tween Duncannon and the Baileysburg
station, abont a mile and a half this side
of the latter. The . conductor of the burden
train, contrary to the schedule of time for
leaving, either ignorant of the orders, or
disregarding them, left'the station this side
of Bailey's, expecting, it is supposed, to
reach there, before the passenger train
should arrive. The consequence was a
collision, by. which Mr, Wisely, an engi
neer and superintendent on the road, had
his hack broken, cauding his death in about
an hour. Mr. Hawn, a conductor or en
gineer of the passenger train, had one
foot smashed, and the other leg badly bro
hen. Mr. Heisely, at the time of the ac
cident, which happened In passing a curve,
was on the platform, arid the engineer with
him, for the purpose-of having a more-crit
ical view of the road.
If the conduetorpf the burden train has
not escaped it is hoped that justice will be
done to him, which cannot be, unless he
gets a taste of the penitentiary:-
Mr. Heisely, whose death was thus caus
ed, was a moat excellent young man, and
of the highest promise for usefulness and
honor.—Harrisburg Telegraph.

ANOTHER SuiciDE.-+►lVe learn that Mr.
Robert Cameron, a highly respectable cit
izen of Lower Chanceford township in
York county, committed suicide by shoot
ing himself, on the 27th ultimo. Ile left
home with his gun. for the purpose of
shooting at a target, as he alleged, and was
shortly afterwards found dead a short dis
tance front the house, with the contents of
his gun lodged in his breast. Front the
situation of his gun and the position of his
body, it was apparent that it was his inten
tion to commit the deed. It is said that
he labored under partial insanity for some
time.
THE PUBLIC Leans.—From the report
of the Commisioner of the General Land
Office, it appears that during the past year
upwards of six millions of acros of land
were advertised for sale, mod more than
six and a half millions are prepared for
market. a great part of which will be pro
claimed during the ensuing year. The re
port shows that the quantity of land disposed
of in 1847, by warrants equivalent to cash,
amounts to 83,596,25108, and in 1848 to
$5,482,815 26. In the first three months of
1819 it amounts to $4,597,63726; show
ing that the increase in the amount of
land disposed of keeps pace with the in
crease of population, and the consequent
wants of the community.
UNHAPPY FAMILY.—The *tree sisters,
residing near Harrisburg, Pa., who were
seduced by one DE. Mi!ls, and for which
he is now incarcerated in the State Prison,
have each become the mother of a fine boy.
LlDERlA.—Accounts from Liberia to
Nov. Bth represent the condition of the
colony as very prosperous. The crops of
rice were very abundant. The govern
ment of the colony has incurred very
heavy expenses lately, principally by the
expedition against New Cestera, which
cost about 141,000. This has exhausted
the Treasury and prevented the payment
of debts incurred in the purchase of land
from the natives. To liquidate these, aid
is earnestly solicited from the United Stang'
and elsewhere. Nothing but the want of
money retards the securing of Gallinas
and all lying between the Northwest bovin
dary of the Republic and Sierra Leone.—
Glowing accounts are given of the rrivkvals
of religion, principally in the MsJanslist
churches. Nearly two hundred have uni
tea with the hutches, among w. , l lo ai are
from thirty to forty native Africrins.

DROPSY OP TOR HEAD (Como.—A poor
child, a boy about two years old, was gir.
en up to die. The parents, neighbors and
doctors. had no hopes of his recovery__
For several days his breathing had been
short and death-like ; and., in fact, those
around him supposed another night would
be his last. In this stage of the ease-. an
aunt of the child was sent for, with whom
the little sufferer was a great favorite.--
This lady having arrived, and being seated
asked a few questions as to the condition of
the child's bowels, and then expressed the
opinion that Brandreth's Fills were capa
ble of saving its life. She was so in earn
est in her remarks, that her advice was
followed from the moment. She gave him
two pills at once and followed them up
with more in about an hour ; she crashed
the pills, and gave them in molasses, wash
ing them down with a little tea. The ef
fect was surprising ; in six hours she had
given him over 12 pills. and the disclaims%
were of the most malignant nature. Suf
fice it to say, that in fifty-two hours she
had given him fifty-two pills. and an the
alarming symptoms had entirely disappear
