As was expected, the locefoce Congressional Conferees have renominated the Hon. James XdlicLanahan for Congress. Let the honest voters—the Farmers, Mechanics and Laboring -Men of Cumberland, Franklin and Perry,— now- remember thati on the 24th of August James X. McLanehan voted against an ameod mont of the Present ruinous Tariff, by which the home valuation and a specific duty would have boon substituted, instead of the present mode of regulating the duty by the cost of the article in Europe. The effect _cf this would have been to raise the the duties on most ar- tides of American Manufacture—iron partic ularly—tea or fifteen per cent. over present rates, which would have afforded some degree of protection to our suffering manufacturtng interests. _ Yet this small boon to the suffering "sons of toilq.or-the.United -States, Jantes_X—llfeLtina;_ , . han—himself rolling in wealth and faxury—vo ted to refuse !

Tho North American remarks, with g real truth, upon the passer, of the Texan boundary bill by Congress, that there aro many of the truest of our country who will never cease to regret the circumstances under which this bill was carried through Congress. It was clearly the result, net of changed convictions, but of fear and coercion. The South has tri umphed ; the majority has yielded to the mi. - nority ; Northern men have laid down. their wishes—end even their •principhr and pledges -on the altar of conciliation. But thews is no merit of magnanimity. All was done under duress. It was because the South hectored that it surdebded. It was because Texas threatened rebellion and civil war, and the disloyal citt "Biates prooinimeil;4leir intention to ninke.cammum cause witli'her, that a meas ure received the votes of se many who did not approve it. It may be regretted that they did not, for their own lake}, and the eountry'slake, demand the honors or the decencies of a capit ulation. Treason should have talked a little patriotically, and rebellion should have sainted the national flag, when this ball was about to pass. Jenny Lind's First Concert.

This turidamen- Lai principle was attended to by our forefathers, 3"when they by their united wisdom formed the • Federal Constitution. But nothing is clearer than ,that Choy did not think it best to subject .every department of the government directly to caprice of the people. In proof of which, it may ho said that the Supreme Court-of the Culled States, so which the people have up ' bounded confidence, is entirely independent of .their action. Designed to secure the. ends or justice they wisely gtiorded it from 'political contrivances and the passiona,el men. .jAnd so , was the Judiciary of every State in the Union,, modelled-on the same principle. Now a htlii we affect to extol the wisdom and matchless productions of those men; we are abort to die. card an element which they not only regarded ms of purainount importance, but which is well attested by hi story and experience: Thus are admired wisdom and long experience being o clipsed by the bright sine in our political firma ment, which [nave with majestic grandeur in their eccentric orbits, subject to no law but that of change ! , • Change our present system, and the election of Judges will bo made a party question.

Either tho Go : venni. and Senate in the exercise of the appointing power act in an enlightened man ner, not on the narrow ground of party spirit,' looking more to capacity and qualification than to mere party service, or they are not cen patent to discharge all the duties which apper tain to their office.
