Prom the V. S. fiat, of Aug. S3.
coxtatKBs.
In ccnsequence of the sickness of our Washing
ton correspondent, we have to resort lo the Globe
far recorJ of the proceedings on Saturday.
Mr. Sergeant called up the Fiscal Bill, and after
some very unparliamentary tutu in, it was noted to
take the bill out of the Commute, on Monday, (tliia
day.)
On motion of Mr. Sergeant, the House went into
committee, (Mr. Dawson of Georgia in the chuir,)
and took up the
FISCAL CORPORATION.
The first question waa to strike out all of bill No.
1 4, as reported to the House, and insert the amend
Ttcnt, which made a hybrid animal of the whole
concern.
Mr. SERGEANT now proceeded to amend the
amendment, by inserting correct figures. He then
went at length in favor of it.
Mr. WISE said you might fly kites and run
torse races as well upon this course, as upon the
:our.e at New Market. He siiid you could not oh
ain discounts by name, it was true; but he asked
that the difference was, when he wanted a discount,
etween his drawing a bill upon a friend at New
)rleans for (5,000 and selling it to the Bank, and
is friend drawing upon him here for (6,000, when
.e wanted a discount, and selling it to the agent
ank at New Orleans. lis asked, after reading the
uper that he held in bis hand, the veto, whether
ny gentleman here believed that this tl-cal mca
ure would become a law.
He said gentlemen had drawn deductions from
he veto message not justified by the language. He
aid the change of language of the bill would not
dter the bill. Neither could an agent be put in a
Itate without the assent of a State. He asked why
he Subtrcasury was repealed at the moment it was.
le said gentlemen had overleaped themselves in
epcaling it. They might, after tho veto, have left
tim with the Subtreasury unrepealed, to be arraign
d before the American people, and gone home. He
aid the House had passed the Bankrupt Bill as it
tad passed the Bank Bill, by dodging it; and had
nude a minority bill of iu Ho laughed at the idea
f throwing at John Tyler the bloody bones of pur-e
nd sword. He said he did not believe that he ever
ad a sword buckled to him ; and as for a purse the
iation had none. He said, it had been said that
lie Cubinet was in favor of the Bank. But who
.ere the Cabinet 1 Tenants of suficiancc, and not
is Cabinet. He said the Cabinet was organized
,'iih seeds of its own destruction in it. It was an
nion of the House of York and Lancaster of the
vhite and red roses. He asked who it was that
cad lessons to tho friends of the President of the
Jnited States par excellence. A disappointed Kli
ician, who fuilcd to get the vote of his own party,
and who now net only determined to be the power
H'hind the throne, but the power to stride over the
hrone, King, and all, like a colossus. He did
tot acknowledge the Cabinet or the majority here
the President of the United States. He aked
'lien the President ever recommended a Bank or a
islribulion of public land to tax the people eight
millions of dollars, and break the compromise act.
.e said any man who endorsed the rumor that he
ud his friends were the Kitchen Cabinet, lied,
le said if the President had a Kitchen Cjbinet,
.iili a barber from Frederick -burg to preside over
I, inolher had a man Charles to preside over his
aliiuct, and white Charleys, too, to do his bidding.
le said the friends of the President par excellence
:ad lieen compared to a corporal's guard. He
ould tell them that they might be a corporal's
juard here, but he would point lo the masses.
Tall oaks from little acorns grow,
Large streams from little fountuins flow.
!1e said the Whig party, like every other monstious
Vet us, was pietty much still born. It died before
he inauguration;
Mr. Wise's hour now ran out.
Mr. Turncy of Tennessee now moved to strike
-ut the enacting clause of the bill.
Mr. W ise now claimed and succeeded in getting
the rloir upon the new motion.
He now began upon Mr. Clay, whom he scored
under the image of Humor, and showed his argu
ments in relation to the alternatives in the most
true and laughable light. He said Rumor, a tall
sandy haired, long nosed orator, wished the Presi
dent to resign, and if the President had resigned,
Rumor would have considered him the must clever
fellow in the world. Rumor might then have got
his place. He said Rumor, without such resigna
tion, would get but little "there Mow, nor get thlt
little long."
Mr. Marshall of Kentucky followed Mr. Wise,
and afier a few words moved that the committee
rise.
The committee then rose.
Mr. ProtTil of Indiana offered a resolution, derl.it
in; that if Congress chartered a fiscal agent, it
should reserve the power to repeal the same when
ever it saw fit. Objected to.
The House, on motion of Mr. Pioffit, adjourned
at half pisl 4 p. in.
The Hrsvsott Wiiy Judge Hanks Don't Hr
" The editor of the United States Gazette, in an
ailicle on the subject, gives to the public the lea
sous why Judge Banks -don't resign. Among
those reasons we find the following :
"Judge Bunks haa not sought the nomination
which is made it would, therefore, lie wrong lo
sk him lo resign a situation which is wriit and
agreeable to him te If, to take CHANCE of one
which can be made only useful to the comtnunty,
while it must be onerous to himself "
Here is an admission by the Judge's own friends
in the public prints that he only has a CHANCE
f election ; and from the tenacity with which he
holds on to the "situation which is useful und a
greeable lu himself," it is evident the Judge eonsid
era that he has but very tlim chance of being
elected Governor. For some lime past the know
ing pnes of the wbig parly have admitted privately
that there was NO CHANCE of electing Judge
Banks, but we were not prepared ao soon to see
this idini--!n wade ill leading print. Rryttouc.
Kt,KCTIOS.
Isdiara. In Indiana the greatest re-action has
taken place in favor of the cause of democracy
which we have heard of for a long lime. Last year
in the Senate the federalists had 2.1 members and
the democrats but 3. And in the House the feder
alists had CS, and the democrats 23. This year,
however, the democrats have elected 63 members of
the House, and the federalists 47. And in the
8onate the democrats have 23, and the federalists
23, giving the democrats a majority of two on joint
ballot.
Tersesskr. In Tennessee, Jones, the federal
candidate for Governor, has been elected by only a
bout 3000 majority. Last year Gen. Hariison's
majority was upwards of 12,000. In the Senate
the democrats have majority of one, and in the
lower House the v. bigs have a majority of three.
Alarama. In Alabama a democratic Govern
or has been elected, and a large majority of demo
crats have been elected to the Legislature
Illinois. In Illinois, the election was for mem
bers of Congress, and Reynolds (democrat) nnd
Stewart and Casey (federalists) have been elected.

A Ooori Joke.
Lehigh county as our n-ighbots t iny possibly
know, is perhaps tho residence of some of the most
fanatical and bigoted anlimasotis in this State, I
In Heidelberg, Saucon and some other townships,
there are hundreds of honest men who believe that
the devil is at least a royal arch, and that few
meetings of the giand lodge are held without the
presence of his satanic majesty. When the cele
brated case of the Commonwealth vs. G. A. Sage
was tried, on which Gov. Porter was examined as
n witness, these men, leaders and all lock great
iuteiest in the case, thronged the court house day
after day as it progressed. The defendent was con
victed and the falsehoods of the opponents of the
Governor so completely exposed and refuted that
Judge Banks (his present opponent) treated the
application of the defendent for a new trial, with
the contempt it merited, and refused to grant it, in
which however he was overruled by the two new
learned in the law Associate Judges. This con
duct of Rimer's President Judge was so strange
to these anlimason, that they could only account
for it on masonic principle! Now D. R. Porter
(as all who have seen him will recollect) is a very
dignified thoughtful looking personage ; and while
testifying was required to go hack in his thoughts
to the time when the events (on which the char
ges against him weie founded) occuried, for the
purpose of explaining them. While pondering o
ver some of the questions which were put by the
counsel employed in the cause, he would occasion
ally rub his hands gently, or pass his hand over his
foichend ai d eyes to collect his thoughts. This tea-
hen Ihe secret. This was a grand masonic sign
of distress D. R. Purler was a mason, John Banks
the favorite of Rimer was unother, and when this
sign was given, the Judge was compelled to do all
he could for him. This story soon run over the
county, and was finally bclitved by the antics.
Now thai Banks is running for Governor, their lea
ders will find it difficult to destroy the effect of it
among their followers. Ithigh liulhtin.
The New Apportionment.
We give the following from the Newark Daily
Advertiser shewing the representative number of j
each Slate by tho ratio of 00,00(1 and by that of
57,000. The former number has been most fre
quently alluded to in the newspapers as the pro'.a
bte basis of the new apportionment ; but it will
appear there are serious objections to it on the
ground that it will leave many large fractions un
represented in a number of the States. Thus ul
(111,000 for a representative, eleven States will be
left with fractions over 40,000 each ; and lluee
others with fractions of from 30,000 to 40,000. '
By the same standard the fdlowing States will lose
representatives, viz. New Hampshire, Connecticut, j
Rhode Island, Vermont, Maryland, and Tennessee, !
each one; South Carolina and Kentucky, each l
two; North Carolina, three; and Virginia four.
By the ratio of 57,000, New York and Pcnnsyl-
vauia, will each gain two members, and Vermont j
and Tennessee will preserve their present number ; !
while Kentucky, South Carolina, North Carolina,
and Virginia, will lose one member less than if the :
ratio were at 60,000. By this ratio only five States j
will have fractions over 40,000.
The aggregate unrepresented fractions for the ;
whole Union at the ratio of 90,000 would lie 8 17,- j
606; at 57,000 it would be 688,690. The Ad
vertiser concludes that the latter ratio will be most J
likely to have the preference ; and remarks that as j
the members of the present Congress will have lo j
fix the slaudiid of the new representation the vote I
of each member will piobably be influenced by two
considerations, namely whether a given ratio will
diminish the just weight of his own State, and j
whether it will dunini.il his own chuice of ie-elec- !
lion. The latter consideration will ojieiate against
fixing a high ratio which would materially lessen
Ihe number of representatives from any ofthe Sts'es.
The West will g in largely, let the ratio' lie fixed
as it may. Ohio at the ratio of 60,000 will gain six
members, at 57,000 she will gain seven. Indiana
and Illinois will each gVli four or Ave Virginia
will suffer the greatest dimunition. She will full
below Ohio and become the fourth State in the U
niun. The new infusion fiom the West will be of
vigorous kind practical in spirit and prompt in
action. Tho country will lose nothing by this.
We think it is high lime thst our merchants.
storekeepers, and the public, h ulJ raise their voi
ces and call upon the Banks generally to resume
cash payments. Six months have now eUod
sinca tire last suspension and the excuse then was
that the United States Bank impeded them that
institution no longer can impede them they
ought therefore to relieve the trading coiiimuuiiy
from the loss resulting from the depreciation of their
own paper. We hold the opinion, firmly, thai eve
ry Bank which does not redeem iu notes iu specie
ought lo wind up its affairs. Philad. liaiettr.

This important desideratum in Hie construction
of Rail Roads, has at length been attained, ao that
not merely an "iron ribbed" road, but the entire su
perstructure of that material may now be consider
ed as practicable. This Improvement combines
economy, durability, and beauty, and is the inven
tion of Mr. J. Spsulding and Mr. Isherwood, practi
cal engineers on the New York ai.d Eric Rail Road.
Two arches, of ten feet each,ofthie invention is
now in use on the Ithaca and Owego Rail Roads,
half a mile west of this village, over which the reg.
ular trains pass every day. It has also been sub
jected to severe tests, and single arch sustained
a pressure of more than twenty tons. We under
stand that a branch road from Factory ville, in this
county, to tho Pennsylvania line, four miles in
length, is forthwith to be constructed on this plan,
and the castings are now being made. This inven
tion is of great importance. It will produce an en
tire revolution in the construction of Rail Roads, as
it can be built cheaper than the common mode, and
its durability is beyond computation, It will open
a new market fur the immense beds of ore with
which our country abounds, and obviate the neces
sity, now unavoidable, of depending upon England
for rails. All who have examined the piece in ope
ration are struck with its simplicity, beauty and
strength its advantages are incalculable. (hrrgo
