The Supper.
Since the commencement of the pres

out the Union, the most noted of which,
were the "Glasgow Dinner." and the
"Baltimore Supper," (both given to the
members of our Legislature.) the dinner at
the Astor House to the New York Legis
lature, and the dinner that Secretary Web-!
6ler ate yesterday at Annapolis. It were
folly to deny that the donors of these ban

Hon. Job Mann.
The above named gentleman has been
the able representative in Congress from
this district, composed of WestmoreUnd,
Cambria and Bedford counties, for the
past four years, and at a former period,
represented the district composed of Cam
bria, Somerset and Bedford, for two years.
His term of office expired on the 4th
March, and we are pained to say that for
the next term the Big District" is to be
represented by a Whig.
Mr. Mann, during the period he has
been a member of Congress, has by his
strict adherance and unfaltering devotion
to the doctrines of the democratic party,
made himself deservedly popular in his
district and throughout the State, and in
returning to his home is conscious of
having done his duty to the party, to the
country and to his constituents. Like a
true democrat and republican he suppor
ted the Compromise measures of the late
Oongrese, believing that the passage of
those measures would bind together the
States and the people in a bond of union,
that would resist the attacks of all fanati-
jcal abolitionists and ultra disuniouists, and
be the means of restoring peace and liar,
rnony to our much beloved country. He
was emphatically the friend of the soldier,
and we know of many who esteem and
honor him for his successful efforts in
their behalf.
He was and is the friend of humanity,
and therefore introduced a bill, December
31st 1819, for the abolition of flogging in
the U. S. Navy, (a law that certainly was
more honored in the breach than in the
observance.) which is as follows:
And Whereas, 1'uhlic sentiment, hu-

He it Resolved, That the Committee
on Naval Affairs be instructed to inquire
into the expediency of reporting a bill re
pealing that part of said act of Congress
authorizing the (lozsinz of American Sea
men, and providing, if necessary, some
other mode of punishment better adapted
to civilization and the age in which we
live.
A bill in substance same as the above

Mr. Mann was one a committee of nine
appointed to examine into and report upon
the "Galphin Claim," by the allowance
of which Mr. Secretary Crawford made
for himself about ninety thousand dollars,
and when the report was read in ihe
House, Messrs. Mann, Disney and Feaih-
erson, submitted the following resolutions:
Resolved, That the claim of George
Galphin was one that the United States
was under no obligation to pay prior to
the passage of the act of 1848, which au-
thorized and required The payment of the
principal only. .. ' .
Resolved,-Thzi the - interest hereon
was paid without authority of law or usage.
Resolved, That Congress should pass
a law prohibiting the payment of interest
in any, case, by any officer of the Govern
ment, unless expressly directed by law.
Resolved, That Congress should pass
a law prohibiting any member of the Cab
inet from" deciding on any claim or de
mand .against the Government, in which
auy other member of the same Cabinet
shall be interested, while they may be
thus associated together in the administra
tion of the Government.. ..

Remaining in the institution January 1,

reading, writing, and arithmetic. During
the year the colored department earned
SI, 495 20; and the expenditures were for
the same time $7,224 85. The boys are
engaged in the manufacture of furniture
for umbrellas, and the girls in domestic
duties. The case of sickness that termi
nated fatally in the white department, was
that of a boy 14 years of age, who had
been in the House nearly two years. His
decease was typhoid fever. The efforts
of an excellent physician and a faithful
nurse were unavailing, and he departed
his life on the 23d March.
The only case of death in the colored
department, was that of a female, about
17 years of age, admitted on the 12th
September 1850, and died 26th December.
She was attended by a skillful physician
and watched over by the kind and excel
lent matron and her assistant.
The account of the Treasurer shows a
balance on hand January 1, 1851, of $4,
945 43, which speaks well for the finan
cial affairs of the institution.
The building is at preeent lie.Uocl hy
hot-air furnace.- and coal stoves, but the
committee hope soon to be able to heat it;
by steam. A chapel is connected with
the House. The pupils are allowed suffi
cient exercise, good clothing, means of
bathing, and wholesome and nutritious
diet.
Suitable buildings are to be erected, that
will, when completed, be sufficiently large
to accommodate three hundred and fifty
males and one- hundred and fifty females.
We will close-our notice of this humane
institution by . making the following ex
tracts from the Report.
The Board of Managers have great
satisfaction in communicating to the Le
gis'ature and to the Contributors that the
Institution under their patronago contin
ues in a flourishing condition. It must
afford heartfelt gratification lhat the ob
jects of their bounty are "snatched like
brands from the burning," trained in the
paths of industry, frugality, and piety,
and prepared for lives of usefulness and
happiness.
'This noble charity, while it affords
protection to the helpless, comfort to the
forsaken, and instruction to the ignorant
child, wiil amply repay all the e xpeuse
and labor incurred its support ana
management by diminishing pauperism
a lid repressing crime, nnd.thus affording
additional security to society. Humanity
and "self-interest are both united id the
measure.
It has been well said that "The ques
tion commends itself to every man's
common sense whether, upon the whole,
it is the cheapest and best policy to make
criminals', and support them at the public
charge, or to control the primordial cau
ses, and make them honest and useful
members of society."
. he advantages of such .schools of
reformation have "imw'.beconse tnpre , lolly
known, and more justly appreciated not
oniyin-our own- commonwealth but i
several ipf our sister S ates.''.
"To the ministers of the Gospel who
have kindly and gratuitously imparted
religious' instruction on the first day pf
the-.week, the Board tende-r their thanks.
arid. reJyvupoii them for a continuance of
their labors of love.
May the; House of Refuge be ever
ready, to receive the young prodigal, the
youthful outcast, the erring child ! May
i always be the abode of industrv, order,
piety a lasting monument of the wisdom
and philanthropy-of this great Common
wealth! May thosM interested with its
management be guided by the Giver of
all Good, and may His blessing resi'upou
it."
" CP Col. Forney of the Pe-msylvanian,
than whom there is 110 more efficient
democrat and able political writer in the
Union, in his editorial remarks concerning
the election to the U."S. Senate, of Judge
Wade, a Free Soil Whig from the State
of Ohio, and the National position of the
democracy m New Hampshire, says:
Democracy in Aew Uanipshirc-Wliiggcry iti
Uliiu.
Although we suppose there is no doubt
that the Democracy have carried the Le
gislature of New Hampshire, and have
thus secured the election of Dixsmoor,
the Democratic candidate for Governor,
there is also no doubt that a pretty large
falling off has been the consequence ol
their repudiation of Atwooo and his hyp
ocritical pretensions and double-dealings..
We perceive that the New York 'Iribune
is rarely exercised at the result of this
election, and preaches quite a sermon upon
it. Bu; that which causes the Tribune
to exult, will also cause the true friends ot
the Union everywhere to rejoice. The
only honest course for a party to take that
is in favor of the Constitution anil the
Union, was to assume precisely the ground
assumed by the Democracy ol New
Hampshire.. What would victory with
Atwooo have produced but a harvest ol
self-scorn and self-reproach, and Hie well
earned contempt of honest men of all
parties? The New Hampshire Democrats
chose the oilier course; cut themselves
loose from a trafficker and a craven, and
(though partial defeat has been the conse
quence, ever lover ot our tree institutions,
and every true friend of the Union, will
applaud their self-denial and iheir courage.
It is an example like this that makes us
proud of the Democratic party. It is a
strong, resolute, aud indexible adherence
to duty, like that which has just been
demonstrated in New Hampshire, that
measures the broad aud fundamental diff
erence between the Democracy and every
other political organization. If utter over
throw had followed; if the Wuigs had
carried Congress, Legislature, and Gover
nor, still there would have remained that
priceless blessing, the inappreciable con
sciousness of hauug dared to do right.
If there were not such men in the North,
your Union would not have lasted to thi
tune, or it would now be on the eve of
such a calamity as would make the whole
world mourn. Those, then, who denounce
these bold efforts in favor of the Union,
and against its foes, and who boast of the
temporary party success they have achiev
ed by their calculating course, are dounly
the enemies ol the public peace. While
af.a.d to take hold of the dangers that
threaten the country, they Uo 1101 hesiltie
to profit by the ill-gotten power which
their coalition with faction always secures
to them. In order to show what the
Tribune's idea of a Whig is, the follow
ing paragraph, from its yesderday's num
ber, on the Senatorial election in Ohio, is
instructive, and presents a singular con
trast with the course of the Democrats of
Nvw Hampshire which the samw pjjer
so bitterly assails :
So Benjamin F. Wade was elected
the first United. States Senator from the
Western Reserve, wjihiu our recollection.
Judge Wade is a Free Soil Whig, and
a determined opponent of the Fugitive
Slave Law, but has never perceived lhat
his Free Soil principles could be promoted
by abandoning and opposing-the Whig
party, of which he was recently a candi
date, in opposition to the Free Soil party,
which carries all before it in his section.
He was an early and decided supporter of
General Taylor for 1' resident, yet he is
now elected by the aid of the Free Soil
votes."-
Here is a Whig for you "A free soil
Whig, aud au opponent of the Fugitive
Slave Law," who "was an early and de
cided supporter of General Taylor for
President." These are the men, be it re
membered, who profess consistency ol
conduct, and devotion to the Union. They
show tlieir consistency by making their
advocacy of a ! tve-lmlder for President,
and their opposition to the Fugitive Law,
merits equally entitled to reward ! They
show their devotion to the Union by en
couraging a sentiment, which can never
succeed, unless the Union is crushed into
ruins.

" Richmond. March 13, 1651.
To the Editors of the Enquirer :
Gentlemen : My attention has just been
called to your article in the Enquirer of
this morning, under the caption "New
Appraisement Bill," and also to the one
which followed it, from the Hartford
ird;
In-
Times, under the caption,-"Important
crease ol the 1 ami.
The article from the Times is full of
error?, -as is so much of your article as is
based upon its statements, aud those in
which you say the Northern papers stgree.
1 have not lime to correct them in detail,
which 1 regret, as 1 find the law makes no
change whatever in the Tariff of 184G,
as construed and administered, from the
period of its enactment down 10 the lale
decision of the Supreme Court, by Mr.
Polk's, Gen. Taylor's, aud the present
administration. As you correctly remark
in ihe first paragraph of your article, ihe
bill ratifies and enacts the Treasury circu
lars aud re-establishes" the Tariff of '40.
as understood by its framers. Ii meets
the acceptance of the Supreme Court,
which put a construction upon the Tariff
of '40 in couilicl wuh th construction
which has prevailed at the Treasury. It
does that, and it does no more, except to
authorize the appointment of appraisers
at large. The appointment of them was
necessary to produce that unifoimity in
the duties levied in liie sev eral ports, which
is required by the Constitution. Mr.
Walker earnestly recommended the bill m
all ot its provisions. It was neeessar ;o
continue the Tariff of '40. wiixa Ins
been so eminently successful, as he had
construed aud administered it.
Nothing coulc be mure unfounded than
the statement of the Timss, "thai t!iis law.
was literally smuggled through Congress."
No bill was- more carefully considered. It
was discussed in the Senate as long as
any body chose to discuss it; and it p issed
that body without opposition. The char
acter of the bill was much discussed in
the papers and it was well understood in
the House of Representatives. The rules
required two-thirds to take it from the
Speaker's table, yet, upon my motion, it
was taken up, and af;er a brief statemen.
from me, it was passed scarcely wkh a
dissent from any one.
In great haste, I have the honor to be,
most respectfully, your ob'l serv'i,
TIL H. BAYLY.
On the other hand we iopy the follow -injr
article from the Poitsvtlle Miners'
ournal, of Saturday :
Many inquiries are' made respecting the
operation of the bill upon the Coal and
Iron interests. Several explanations have
already been gieu we publUhed one
last week from the Philadelphia Ledger.
Hon. C. W. Pitman, our Representative,
w ho has just returned from Washington,
gives us the - following still further expla
nation. The construction that will be nut
upon the bill by tJie Secretary of the
Treasury, will embrace all costs and char
ges, including freight, except insurance.
If these costs amount to $0 on iron, the
additional protection at 30 per cent, will
be $1,SU per ton. On coal, the cost ami
I charges being about equal to the value of
coal abroad, the present duty will be near-
ly doubled.
Mr. P. states thai this is the version
given the bill by Secretary Corvvin him
self. EPThe following excellent article we
