"In union there is strength." is a truthful
maxim, and to its faithful and incessant prac
tice by our revolutionary sires, are we at this
day indebted for that groat boon, which is gua
ranteed to very citizen of this country civil
and rejigions liberty. The perpetuity of these
blessings depend, beyond a doubt, npon a just
exercise of constitutional rights and privileges
and a proper administration of our laws. It is
- conceived by a very numerous class of the cit-
izens of the United States, that no one is so
well calculated to perform tho functions indi--
cated as the individual who has been reared
beneath - the - folds of our own "stars and
npes." The reflecting mind will have but
- little difliculty in arriving at such a conclusion.
! It is not to be expected that a person, imbued
with the sanguluary doctrinss of the lied Ec
1 publicans f France, the deidtical fallacies of
"',thc infidels of Germany, the agrarian views of
, the enthusiasts of Ireland, or the absurd and
Superstitions opinions of tlw bigotted Italic
devotee, would, at least until a. cal change
had hon ertected in his antecedents, be a pro
sper -expounder . of our constitution or in any
wa calculated to frame laws for either our in
dividual, state or national government. Of all
foreign influences, however, tiiat miaht ba
brought to bear upon the political institutions
of this country, it is presumed that none would
be more pernicious than that cf pajial ecclesi
astical lor its proclivities are, as well as its
practices have been, at variance with the fun
damental principles of Freedom. Nor does it
require any special or elaborate argument to
demonstrate this; for if we but glance over
tlvvfaco of tho earth, the truth is at once ap
parent that in those countries where Catholi
cism has the supremacy, there despotism is in
variably found to prevail. The restraining,
therefore, of any arid all influences that would
prove deleterious to the principles of liberty,
subversive of our republican institutions, or
productive of evil in any way to our Govern
ieot, should be carefully guarded against ;
an4His for the accomplishment of such a pur
pose, by securing the success of our party,

discussed in a lucid and perspicuous manner,
the suggestions-therein contained arc prudent,
useful and practicable, and, taken as a whole,
it is an able and statesmanlike production. It
has elicited tho commendation of the press
generally, throughout the State, and it is only
here and there that a violent opjosition sheet
will venture to spea of it iu anything like
disparaging terms-
The financia' afairs of the Commonwealth
are rcpref'-nfc1 as being in a wholesome con
ditiwV anl it cannot be otherwise than grati
pfig to the taxpayers of the State to know,
that, notwithstanding laige sums have been ex
pended for unfinished improvements com
menced under former administrations, no re
sort to loaning has been made and that tho rev
enue of the year has exceeded the expendi
tures to tho amount of SG30.G01 ; that the in
terest on the State debt for the past year has
been paid, and that the balance in the Treasu
ry is amply sufficient to pay the interest for
the current year.
On the several questions of banks, agricul
ture, common schools, the State institutions,
&c, the Governor is explicit -and utters opin
ions strictly in accordance with his views here
tofore expressed on these subjects; the con
dition of the public works are set forth clear
ly ; several valuable suggestions and proposi
tions are made, after which, as a contemporary
remarks, "a few well-expressed sentiments, in
which every patriotic citizen will heartilv ioin.
conclude what we arc disposed to re" ml as
one of the best State papers that has ever been
issued from the Executive chair."

following from the last number of the West

approaching completion, ahd will prove quite
an ornament to the principal street of the city,
on which it stands. The Institution will go
into operation under the most favorable auspi
ces, having the good wishes of the entire com
munity, which lias felt that the growing busi
ness of this section of the State called for an
increase of bauking facilities for its accommo
dation. There is enough business for both the
old and new Bank, and tho judicious manage
ment of both these institutions cannot fail to
impart a healthy impetus to the trade of which
our city is the centre. The new institution
will commence banking operations on Wednes
day, the second, day of tho new year. The
Board of Directors is composed of the follow

Like all his predecessors, the Secretary
earnestly recommends an increase of the .Na
vy, and particularly an addition ot steamships
of a light draft of wnter. A great Naval force,
the Secretary hints, cannot be improved by
tho tap of the drum, like a great army. He
considers our Navy too diminutive to contend
with that of any respectable power, and too
feeble to protect even our own harli rs. Tile
aggregate tonnage of the U. S. in 181:!, was 1,
lif7,0:7 tons. During the fiscal year it was ",
212,000 lD-'.l'i, and our sea coast, is now great
ly increased in extent, and the damage effect
ed by a respectable enemy in six months would
greatly exceed the cost of a Xavy sufficient to
project our commerce sullieiently. The ques
tio'if'of an increase ofthe Navy, the Secretary
regards as one of peace rather than war.
Tho Secretary enlarges at great length upon
the apprenticeship system. which he has adopt
ed as a means for furnishing a reliable body of
seamen for the Xavy, and gives the testimony
of ollieers in its favor. But we look in vain
for an original idea or suggestion in Mr. Dob
bin's report; it is entirely destitute of anything
ofthe sort, and exhibits no special knowledge
of the service beyond the iigurcs which are
furnished by the heads of bureaus. The old
aristocratic plan which has resulted in the
state of affairs which rendered the action ofthe
Navy Uetiring Board necessary, is to be con
tinued, and the Secretary adopts the old plan
of educating men to be comnjon sailors, with
out the hope or prospect of bettering their
condition by good behaviour.
The estimated expenses of the Department
for the ensuing year are $1.1.52105 G7, which
is less, by nearly ?G,00C,U00, than the esti
mate of the fiscal vcar.
