The vote en - the address was 42 to 17.

Chapman. The address of Mr. Berrien is similar to the, above in the rehearsal of grieyan ces sustained 'by he South, only 'rather more moderate in its tone, and is address ed to the people of , the United States, whilst that of Mr. Calhetinli addressed to .the south exclasiveVi. The condo ding ,portion of Mr. Berrien's Address, of course, is -altogether different from , the extract above gimp. rrln glancifig at thetondition of the Senate after the 4th of 'Match, although the locofoco majority, is•decided, there is good reason to hope, that on the impor tant measures of public policy, an accee• sion of influence from our• opponents, may be justly expected, sufficient for all practical pur_poses and to warrant the be lief tharthe Tarif and other questions may , bs Ibenefleially improved, if the cannot be wholly ; repealed. , At present • the majoityis 17.

A correspondent complains witlf much Ai - rani : lth' of inch an "unmerited eulogy," (as he calls ii,) of Judge HEPBURN, by a Whig paper__The_respect_we_enler-. tairi for him induces us to notice his objec tions. And, we viould.askihrn, in .the 'firkt place, to read our article again.. All_ the praise we there awarded :MCC HEPBURN was that which we thought really . due to Jim., and accordingly -our "eulogy" was sololytonfined to his etkoinistrative abilittes -as a Presiding Judge—Particularly td the "energy and promptitude with which, he despatched the public business." Tbese merits we haven-ever heard denied to Judge HEPBURN by any candideperson of any par ty. That they have gained him' "honorable distinction" and "respectable rank," the tes timonial of the Harrisburg Bar on a recent) -occar-ion, may be instanced. Now, will our noirespoedent examine and see it this is not about tie "head and 'tont" of the "eulogy": about which he an captiously complains? We 4 entered upon no extravagant eulogy . of Judge Mepbury att a profound jurist, - dr - is being eminently learned in the law*we un dertook no review of his general 'Character or-administration, to, show whether tie had at' all times administered "equal and exact justice" in every case, ar whether he had ever betrayed partiiati bias or feeling be tween men—we matte no endorsement of his official course as a popular one l nor did we' even express regret at his departure from the Bench. There was no call upon us to do 'this. These were points upon which it was more proper to reeve every man to enjorthe opinion he may have formed, and we there fore confibed ourself to a courteous reference to his acknowledged merits. Our correspondent wishes we had allow- . ed the Judge to retire without any notice.— But we had another name to introduce in the article complained of, and certainly it was not necessary that we should withhold due credit from Judge tieenunN thAt we might speak higher, praise of FREDERICK WArrs.— The character of the latter needs nä suck re lief. Gov. Johnson deprecates that "evil spirit" which condemns a public officer' .in advance—that is arr equally` ruthless which Iboks back on the career -of a public man through a medium of sr b ich embittered prejudice — that it denies him.al/ credit. An Editor must be '*willing to praise" as well as "not afraid to blame." The latter task we have performed toward Judge Hepburn on. .two proper occasions, nor could• we withold , the termer, as far as we thought it merited.

Johnson came into office, he. found these bills in the Executive Chamber --unsamed, and without any, endorsement or record of any kind, to indicate how - or when they got there, and in-the absence of this evidence, he very properly took no ac tion upon them. Consequently, the three days after the meeting of the present Legis lature having passed; and the - bills not tieing returned either signed or vetoed, they were presumed to he laws, according to the con- . ssifittion t sl provision in Snell caself;--- - Arid so they would have been, but for the very im portant reason,. that the clerks of the two -Housss had neglected tf) get Ihe bffis and ap pend the necessary certificate of the facts in she case, and return theist with. this cart* care to the office of the Seeger): of the COm' monwealth lor-enrollmont. Had this been done,the bills would to all intents and purpo see have been laws,and would no:doubt have been certified by the Secretary. . This is the plain statement of the condition of these bills, and forsooth, becabie the Gov. ornor will not certify that in this unfinished condition, they are laws, the Locofocos set Up a Lue and cry, hatch conspiracies against the government, hold secret cabals, denounce the Gcvernor in advance, and threaten to impeach him for not doing what would be a flagrant violation of his duty! The further they have progressed however, the more they have exposed their ears. The Senate have very properly passed a resolution directing their Clerk to get the bills and attach the proper certificate to Them When the House of Representatives does this also, it will have performed its duty in the case, and the difficulty will be settled.— (The House has since referred ithe matter io its Judiciary committee.) •,, The Unsigned Bills STATE TEMPERANCE CONVENTION.-A State Convention of the friends of Temperance,as eembled in Harrisbutg, on T - uesday, tied kir gen4ed by the apPoir.tment of Reuher: C. flale, Eeq., of Lewistown, Preeldent.L Ed ward Mallory, Esq., of Luzerne, Cornelius I:Valbutti Esq., of Philadelphian Dr Speck, of Po3';'N . oP et r i O r : John,Halhert,ofCumbeiland,Viee Presidents; .Hcie ? - I::feorde3L' , MoFailrittcly. of arta eihei'riatletWee, A ' t „, l , , f Among the resolutions:Adopted; by. the Converition,we;find ,the of future (action lard. down:). ,•; ,••••. • Resolved, That we recommend -, tor. the st Temperance, the formation ward borough :taw riship; county> and Stme•Associ4 scions: , Thee , ideal •or 'shbordinate , 4 . lessecial Ilona to be. camposed of; members 'of 'both sexes, and - ' - all z.tigertL and 'conditions;' each - iriernher cent? tbuitino the As sobiationohe 'Smart sum :of one cent'a Wier!' • •Thr4iiirpitus: of binds thinicollected user pay: ing:lhaltetiessa ryimipanses • Of Atte suborddi 'satti'':AesOlflationi , be' deposited , in the 'Pelican?

The second item pro vided tor, is the disc.ou,nt now allowed to tax payers for promlit payment of State to:New,- and prompt paftnent is enforced by the sixth section. This sieving would create an addi tional fund of $40,000.' The saving by the reduction of the per cordage, for collection of the nate iOinies is' estimated at $40,000, and - constitutes the third item of sinking fund making in all about $140,000. The important features ofthis project are . as follows:-.71st, it imposes, no •new • taxes, unless the substitution of a small tax in lien of military trainings, which cannot justly be regarded es such, be so considered,-2,- economizes the collection of the State taxes. —3, it enforces the prompt payment of tax es, by imposing 5 per cent, upon sitch as.ne glect to pay at the timerappointed;-4th, the fund thus constituted =aunt annually , to the, sum of $140,000, beside the interest annually accruing upon the State loans pur chased by'the fund, and which interest is to be added to the fund, to be appropriated s to the seine purpose;-sth, this fund will in crease at compound interest, and by the ad dition of the interest accruing upon the stock purchased also at compound interest, in such a ratio that,. in the'epace of about 55 years, it•would entirely extinguish the State debt. The power of the fund so created can only be properly appreciated, when it is consid ered that it would regnire the appropriation of 5500,000 annually for a period of eighty years to accomplish the payment of the State debt. Another feature worth considering in connection with the consideration of this bill is the fact that the taxes of the people would be paid with mole cheerfulnes when - any prospect shall, be afforded of a sinking fund. It would also put the State credit upon a.sol id basis, end bring up the State stocks .to par in a few years.
