gilt«) call of the Whig County Convention,and
the election-of - delegates to it-on Saturday the
19th inst.,' we hope will be carefully porno in
mind by our - Meads. Theionieniion 'is call
ed-for the - aingle - Turpose - of appointing - dole=
gates to the Lancaster Convention, but this is
an important matter. Our representatives to
that Convention ought to bo men of the high
-est-intelligence; prudeno6 and bbd
The selection of them is therefore worthy, of
our best attention, and we hope will reoply()
it.
As for the Gubernatorial nomination we be
lieve there is really no division of opinion a
, inong Whigs as to thetpropriety and - policy of
'!e-nominatingGov. Johnston. No man in the
Eliate can socburidetely rally the Wilig party
to a oordial'an&enthusiastio support, and no
other,. we feel entirely sure, has so goodchan
orst of a triumphant election. - Our opponents
dread him as theyi:hig candidate. Thera is a
prestige of ineorliirattaolnd to him 'that did
mirages their eilbits, while it exhilarates the
Whigs, and half wine the battle before it is
fought. , •

The Harrisburg correspondent of the' North

riginllly made' for the North 13raneh -Canal of
— 5257,000, provided — that the Appropriation
should 'not be eonitrued‘ to authorize any, in
' crease of the State Debt, and withholding' the
ammint if it threatened to embarass the
Tfeasury. But on Thursday night the Loco-,

result of this caucus was shoWn; the -lneofoco
members who had voted for the . proviso sud
denly wheeled about and voted the $250,000
to the North Branch, free from all restrictions
and without any reference to the ability of the
treasury to pay the amount! . This passed by

and Mr. Bonham in the negative. On Satur
day, the appropriation bill being again under
discussion, Measts.qponham and Soouller both
voted for the appropriation of $250,000 9 'f0r
the avoidance iof the-inclined - planes- of--the
Portage Rail Road. This amount is to be 'ldse
ed by loan, and Will increase the State Debt to
that , amount. It is in fact,however, the begin

'Besides this"there are appropriations of $lOO,-

of Cumberland county who are inexorably op

has yet to pass the Senate.

Some considerable discussion is - going in
the newspapers as to the authorship of the
Higher Law" doctrine, of which'. so much
has been said.of:late. Mr. Seward,' generally
lies had the Credit'Of it; and has been abused
most soundly therefor. But it appears that
there are other.dietinguii3hed individuals who
had appealed to, the same authority, long be
fore it watt introllucdd by Goiernoi , Seward,
but we believe it was not thin considered trea
sonable: the Senate of the United States,
Feb. 20, 100, Henry Clay, in ameech on the
admission of California, used these words:
• 4 gAild you are bound, not - only by the Ciit
stitution of ,the United States, but the treaty
by which She was acquired, and by the Higher
Law of God himself, to give those who aro
thrown into your , possession, by conquest or
by purchase, the benefit of Government. "
Under the administrati4 of. Gen. Jackson
the same doctrine was taught. Amos Ken:
doll, Postmaster General, hi a letter to the
Postmaster at Cherleston,-(S. C.) relative to
excluding certain newspapers• from the mail,
said: •
" No owo obligation to the laws, but a high
er one to the communities in which wo livo. "
