We are pleased to see, that Gatlord Chcrch, Esq., the able and talented reprrsenlative of Craw ford county, in llio lust Legislature, has been riomr nated almost unanimously, for reelection, by the democracy of that county. He pursued the same course with our own rcpicsentative, C. W. Hegins, Esq., in sustaining the credit of the state, and ac tively supported the fearless conduct of eur patrio tic Gevernor. His course has liecn promptly and honorably approved of by the staunch democracy of Crawford, notwithstanding he too was branded by the Barnburners and Destructives as a trai.or and recreant What think you of that Mr. Led ger 1 He was not left at home, Eli ! Communication.' FROM THK MILTON LfcOOKR The Extra Pay. Mr. Editor : In your pajier of the 8th inrst., 2 observed under the editoriul head, some remarks 'with the' caption oMExtra Pay," iu which you pretend to give the vote upon allowing daily pay to the members during the recess. Your remarks appear to be particularly intended to operate to the prejudice of Charhs W. Hegins, our late member. You, however, with apparrnt candor aud sincerity, offer the use of your column to Mr. Hegins, to re ply to the charges you make against him. Sup posing that you would extend the same privilege to his friends, I ahull endeavor to enter into a brief explanation of an error which you, as well as other editors have fallen into more perhaps, from your not having the Journal in your pots, ssion, arid therefore dependant on other sources for your infor mation, than from intentional misrepresentation. The hiw, under which the members reccivid their pay, gives them daily pay from the lime of their meeting, until the final adjournment. So that the daily pay of the members would continue du ring a temporaiy adjournment, without an action on the part of the Legislatuie. The question then was, not whether they would vote themselves sy.fcr the law already give it to them, but whether i!iy wottld relinquish that pay to which they wore vulilled by law. The vote which you publish, was not up in thut question as I shall show. It will be lememlsrrcd, that the Legislature bi Journrd sine die, on the 16th of April, having failed to pass the important public bi Is, which the public interests imperiously required. The Governor calleJ a special session of the Legislature on the 17lh of April, by proclamation issued the previous evening in pursuance of which, they met on that day. The members were all ready to depart to their homes, and many of them had alieady left Harrit liurg At soon as they met, a resolution was oiTcr cd lor a temporary adjournment and an extra sue si m. That resolution was losi, Mr. Hegins voting gainst it. After some time spent in ineffectual attempts made to pass the Mil men ioncd in the Governor's proclsmaiton, another resolution was in troduced for an extra session, aud crried, Mr. Ho gina voting cgt.i-ani it. They met ugaiu ia the afternoon, after an extra session had been determ ined upon, when Mr. Drodhoad offered the follow ing resolution : " Resolved, That the daily pay f the memlrs nhall be suspended during the temporary adjourn-tur-nt of (he Legislature." (Journal, Vol. 1, page 1033.) To prevent the passage, of this resolution, an ad journment was moved and carried, aud upon a call of the yeas and nays, they stood, yeas 30, naya 35, Mr. Heg'ms aotmg against an adjournment. Jour nal, page 1084.) Here, upon the thrc.-kdd of the mailer, we Cud Mr. Hegim not euly voting against an extra a ssion, but voting against an adj tuumeiil, which adj lurnmeiit prevent d tho passage of the above resolution, showing Lis with to reiiuqu sli the daily pay dating the adjournment. f)u the 18:b ef May, alter the Legislature had again met, (Journnj, page 1671,) the Houso re solved itself into a committee of the whole on the jtbtve resolution of Mr. Bioadhead. After some lime aihQt iu the committee, the speaker resumed the chair, and the chairman repoited irogresa, and asked leave to sit again. Leave was granted, and a motion was mule that the committed have leave to sit sguin on the Fourth of July. This would of course, defeat the resolution. This motion was lost, Mr. J leg Ins voting against it, (Jourual, page 1071.) A matin n was then made that ihe commit tee sit on the SOth of June, (Journal, page 1071.) This would a!o have defeated the resolution. Mr. Hegins voteJ against this -loo. The committee waa then refused leive to sit again, and the resolution came hi fire the House. Mr. Nill move. I to strike Utall after the word resolved, and insert iu lieu of jt, the following, viz: "By lUo Senate cVc. Tht the members of the legislature shall not receive per cUem allowance from the a.'j urnm-ut on the 17th tf Apiil last, until the 12th of May 1810, nor shall they receive mil. age allowance for going to Hani burg aud returning to their se.al plueis of aboje." ...mi.iVT IfJJ'J'l J.'L'J'.' On tliis motion, the yeas and nays were called, yeas 69, naya IB. Mr. Hegins voting for it, (Jour nal, page 1073.) After tho resolution was thus amendoj, a motion Was maJo to postpone in definitely. . This motion, if carried, Would haVe defeated the resolution. It waa lost, Mi. Hegins voting against it, (Journal, page 1075.) A motion was then made to postpone it to the 0th of July, which Would be after the legislature had adjourned. Mr, Hegins voted against that. A motion was then made to refer the whole matter to the committee on accounts for their decision, which was cat ried, yeas 50, nays 40, Mr. Hegins voting against it, (Journal, page 1075.) So throughout the whole course of the af fair, Mr. Hegina by hia votes, showed his willing ness to relinqui h his pay during the adj .urnment, and his roadiness to decido the matter at once. Tho reference of the resolution to the committee on ac counts, disposer! of the resolution, and it did not come before the house again. Gn the last aftor noon tf the session, the committer on accounts reported the pay list of the members, with tho usual resolution, via ; u ResolveJ, That the speaker draw his warrant en Ihe state treasury, for the sura set opposite to their names respectively." The yeas and nays which you published in your paper, of the 8th inst., was upon the passage of this resolution, and not upon the question ol relin quishing hia pay duiing ilia adjournment. Mr. He gins, had in every vote he gave, voted in favor of relinquishing pay during the adjournment. Tho whole matter had been relorred to the committee on accounts agninst his consent, and the question pre sented was, whether they will take any pay at all Mr, Hegins voted for taking his pay during the time ha was at Harrisburg.and if the committee on accounts had included with it pay, which he by his votes had shown a willingness to relinquish, it waa nut bis fault for ho had voted against referring it to the committco. JUSTICE." IMPROVING STATE OF THE COUNTRY. Good effects of the Sub-Treasury. The 8ub-Treasury Bill, so much denounced by the opposition, received the signature of the Presi dent and became the law of the laud on the Fourth of July. That feature of "the bill which is so hor rible in the eyes of the whigs, and which exacts gold and silver in payment of the public dues, has been enforced in all tho ahinplastct-riddcn Mates since the middle of October last. It is by the oper ation of this section that its opponents say 'he price of agricultural produce is to be broug!' dewn to almost notliiua, and the country to bj ruined w, hneiiforth and forever. To ihs Iiow the whiira indulge in the vilest misrepresentations, and what poor judges they are as to what effect any public measure will produce, let ua take a alight glance at both the past and the present, and see whether the change has been far the butter or worse. We find by reference to the Price Current of lust October the Piice current of the 4th of July, aud the Pi ice Current of last week, that since the enforcement of the luw of Congress refusing irre deemable piper in payment of the public revenne, maf sinre the Sub-Treasury became the law of the. land, flour has advanced in all the eastern cities 50 to 75 cents per barrel; whiskey 6 to 8 cents per gallon wool 4 to & cents per pound ; wheal 12 to 15 cents per bushel ; rye 6 to 8 cents per bushel, and we leurn that in Xew Orleans Jlvur has ad vanced one dollar and a half an the barrel ! If the Sut-Trcasury will ruin the country, and bring down the value of every thing, how happens it that prices have thus advanced since it went into opera tion! Let the whigs answer this question to tho people whom they have so studiously labored to deceive. Instead of tho " ruin" which was to follow tho Sub-Treasury, we bear of an improvement in busi ness, and a slow but certain advancement of tho value of property in all parts of the country. If there are any cases of suffering, they are the result of the electioneering tyranny of some bank-fed and bank-governed federal whig the result of uncon trollable misfortune, or the natural fruits of idhme, vice and dissipation. The farmer's produce of ev ery description is fiom ten to twvaity per cent, higher thin at any period of the foar yeais' whig auiniiiislralioB of Adams and Clay and foreign and internal navigation was never more a-;ivcy or advantageously erupted mechanics and laborers are hi demand, in m my p'aces, and finj plenty to no in others, in spite of the efforts of the whig capi- talis! to arwst eutcrjirise aus throw them out of employment for eVvtioncering purposes, and the merchants ale transacting a safe aud profitable bus iness, and gradually r.coveiing from the diffi:'ties into wilted fhey were led Vy the ruiueus vaainjUu of the speculating gentry. fcwch is the favorable and dar!y improving con dition of our country under the operations of the Sub-Tressury.
