Topics of the Week.
The most impcirtazit political event of the week
4 the re-election of Wm. H. Seward to the Uni
ed Stabes'Senate, by the legislature of New
'ork This event seals the fate of the old Sil
er Gray faction of the whig party, which, for a
rief hour, has shown a little life under the guise
f Know Nothingism. Silver Grayism never had
auch real life; and as for principle, w hy that was
n "obsolete idea" long before it fell into the
tobrace of spurious "Americanism." It, there
on, hadllittle capital to commence with upon
*fuming its new name, and hence has met the
ate every careful observer of events, since last
election, expected it would. It has prou
d itself totally inoperative for either good or
vil, and it will "now die, and make no sign."—
'nee to its ashes; though we say so as one that
aottrutth not. Mr. Seward's vote was 69 in the
louse, and 18 in the &nett. The opposition
tattered their votes upon Know Nothings, Dem

that the Governor is right: But, as we said be

The above was hardly in type before we began
to hear the "groans of the wounded." The
Pittsburgh Journal is the first Jeremiah. Hear
"Gov. Pollock has taken a bold and most extra
ordinary step in the appointment of Thomas J.
Power to the Aloe of Adjutant General of the
State. The Governor u the nominee of the whit'
party, and- it is a striking fact, that he should
single out a oonspicuons Democrat for one of his
(spud appointments."
r The Journal thinks Pollock's course is extra.
'
,f ordinary, and intimates pretty strongly that there
T! is some other motive for the appointment than a
- I. "purpose to obliterate old party lines." That
motive, it thinks, is to secure the Senatorship for
an "Eastern man," and as Ex-Governor John.
•
sum is the Asynekslostsissies,Jereidsh sweep
in this wise:
, (Did the eoverner mai to glow eompleist
on the part se the Deesonents that rim y have set
received their sham of the loaves mid fishes, by
offering one of the highest ofwes in his gift to a
Democrat? Did he mean also to ktiftlie dam
of the West fora Senator of the West by making
a Western man, Thomas J. Power, of Beaver
county, Adjutant General of Pennsylvania? h
looks exact ly so."
Having delivered himself of this, the Jeremiah
of the Journal finds comfort for his bruised and
broken spirit is the thought that the attempt to
"obliterate party lines" is a game two can Ph ,
at; so it 'eines its edict to the effoot that if the
members from Allegheny cannot carry Ex-Gov.
Johnson, there is a good Democrat, In the pers on
of Gen. Moorhead, who "will oome before them
strongly backed." Says the Journal:
"It is easy for us, who recognise Gen. Moor
head as a personal friend of many years, to pro
claim our readiness to advocate his election to the
United States Senate. But since Gov. Pollock
has appointed Thomas J. Power, we do so v‘ . 47-
lens now to party relations, in urging the elec
tion of Gen. Moorhead as a political move, which
our delegation at Harrisburg should agree upon
as the very next best thing they could accom
plish, if they fail to carry Gov. Johnston."
From this it will he seen that the "sorrows of
Werter" were nothing in comparison to those
which now fill the breast of the whig followers
of "Sam."
A good deal has been said the past week in
Philadelphia, in some of the papers, about the
Sunbury and Erie railroad. It has always been the
fate of this project to have a good deal said in
the papers about it, but very little done. And,
if we are to judge from the present aspect of af
fairs, we should say, "the past is to be the fu
ture!" The cause of the present flurry, is the
evident desire on the part of those who will, in
the end, have to furnish the means to build the
road, if it is ever built, to oust Mr Cooper and
replace him by some other man. The North
American, for instance, earnestly calls for the
election of some other man, and bases its call up
on the grounds of Mr. Cooper's incompetency!
Partly we suppose as an ofset to this attack, and
partly in reply to the report of a committee of
investigation, recently made to the city Councils,
Mr Cooper has a letter of defense. In this doc
ument Mr Cooper says "the rand object of the
company is to tap the heart of the North West
ern trade, at the Harbor of Erie." And the News_
declares that "the managers of the Sunbury and
Erie Company are determined to build their rood
in spite of all opposition, no matter from what
quarter it cgrnea " We put these declarations
upon record, not because we think they amount
to any certain sum, but to show that Mr. Cooper,
and his orgain, the News, deem it obsolutely
necessary to their own moiety to still avow that
' the original aim and objects of the enterprise
shall be carried out.
PLEAse EX-PLUMP—The Pittsburgh Com.
Journal, in speaking of Senator Arlie, says
that he is "a man who for sixteen years, has
'done dil l State some service' in the Halls of
Legislation—a man of unimpeachable integrity,
against whom slander never wagged its poison
ed tongue." All very fine, Mr. Journal, and
true, too; bat is'nt it a little singular that such
a man, after receiving the nomination of a
Whig Convention, should have been defeated by
over one hundred thousand, while his collegue
upon the ticket, Gov. Pallock, was elected by
some forty thousand a majority! Why is
this discreditable fact a historical recored, Mr.
Jaw-nu!? Pleaseexplain! Was it because Mr
Daraie, though endowed with all the attributes
of a gentleman and a man, of talent,—though
true and faithful to the doetines of the Whig
party—was yet unacceptable to the secret cabal
that now controls the destinies of the State of
Pennsylvania! Was it because he first saw the
light beneath skies the of Burns, and Scott, and
that first hero of the American Navy, Paul
Jones! Was this his crime? Again, we say,
please explain'
WHAT'S IN TRW WIND?—The New York
Times, the New York Tribune, and the Even
ing Post, u well u a good many other North
ern journals, are apparently falling in love with
"old Sam" Hove Ton: What's in the wind?—
The Times, for instance, had a long leader the
other day closing thus:
"His qualities as a soldier, his generalship,
marked by prudence and caution, as a leader,
and his humanity as a victor, are as proverbial
in his own State as the signal battle of which
he is the unquestioned hero. His habits in so
cial and domestic life, if not the best at one
time, afford an example of thorough reform, en
tered upon with penitence and determination,
and persevered in, by the help of an iron will,
which is entitled to commendation and respect,
if not to the restoration of entire confident* in
the moral phase of his character."
And the Evening Pose has this notice of the
old General and his intentions:
"Gen Sam Houston declares his intention
of resigning his seat, irrevocably, after the pre
sent session. He assigns as a reason the con
dition of his private &Sirs. The General mar
ried late in life, about fourteen years ago, and
has a family of children between the ages of
sit months and eleven years whom he desires to
train up as hard-working, industrious members
of the community. His oldest boy, he says,
can hoe his row with any boy of his ar, and
his mastery of the plow is truly surprising
The other children are all to be accomplished in
the saute arts, and in order to attend to them
properly the father's presence is required at
home. The health of the old hero is exeellen‘
though he still infers from the wound received
at the battle of San Jacinto, in the ankle of his
left leg. This injury now extends its effects to
his' knee and hip, leaving rods for the appre
hension that the entire limb may yet be disabled.
Another wound of forty-one jean' standing
still forms an issue on his right shoulder. Glen.
Houston still retains his erect and majestic
bearing, and his well-known suavity to all
whom he meets, from the negro hackman to the
fair ladies at the dinner table of Willard's Ho
tel, make him a univeaaal favorite. All aspira
tions for the Presidency he ut r w o rz i diagonal,
though it is by no means imp e that he
would, like other popular favorites, postpone his
own wishes to what he may deem the exigencies
of the country."

ed principalities of Europe from emptying their
poor-bosses cad 'prisons upon our shoves,—
Soem) such law would be just, not only to the
country that has heretofore, and we hope still
will be, an asylum for the oppressed of all na
tions, but to our adopted citizens themselves,
and also to those that intend to become so. No
one ems has oostributod is swell the complaints
spinet adopted citizens, and consequently the
ranks of intolarant Know Nothingisin, more than
the facility with which European paupers and
malefactors have found an asylum upon our shoes,
and thence a habitation in our prisons and poor
houses. Let an Liebman commit-a crime, and
forthwith our entire Irish population, the good as
well as the bad, are denounced by the unthinking.
Lets German pauper, fresh from a German poor
house in the "old country," become a public
charge, and loud anathemas are rung by men
who do not stop to reason upon cause and effect.
or balance the account of the good and evil re
sulting from German immigration: Such politi
cal economists (we call them so, for every voter
ought to be one) do not think that for every Irish
pauper and criminal, there are hundreds of hon
est, intelligent and industrious laborers--men
whose bones and muscles have dug our canals,
built our railroads, and fought our battles. All
this they are entirely blind to. They see only
the fact that one Irishman has committed a crime
and another has become a pauper. Equally blind
are they to the fact that for one imported Ger
man convict or pauper, we are receiving the flower
of the wealth and industry of the German states,
and that this wealth and this industry is build
ing our cities, and peopleing the wilderness, and
making it "blossom like the rose." All this, we
repeat, the unthinking and unreasoning do not
see; and if they do see, do not heed, but jump
ing to a conclusion from false reasoning, imagine
the country is in danger from "foreign influ
euoe" operating upon adopted citizens.
To remove this cause, then, and prevent the
industrious immigrant from meeting the fate of
poor Tray, who was caught in bad company and
suffered in consequence, is the true policy of the
country. We notice that various propositions,
looking to this end, have been introduced into
Congress, and some one—we hope the best—
will doubtless ere long become a law One of
these, introduced by Mr. Wentworth, of Maeda
chusetts, the Washington Star thinks will by
no means care the evils that should be eradica
ted—that it will be likely to operate to keep out
desirable emigration, while proving not the least
check to the ingress among us of the emigration
to which our shores should, properly, be forbid
den ground. Mr Wentworth's bill recognizes
the certificate of the American Consul at the port
,
of emigration, as proof that the emigrant is not
a pauper or a criminal. Now, as most of the
emigrants complained of start for the United
States from points from one to five hundred mirs
distant from where they finally embark, it stands
to reason that the Consul at the port of emigra
tion can have no means of verifying the testimo
ny on which he is to be called on to attach his
seal to a certificate that the person in whose fa
vor it is granted, is neither a pawl nor a crini•
intl. As the Government is to pay no charge
for making the due investigation, and he is to
get some five dollars for applying his seal to a
printed certificate, it is to be expected that he
will seal as many of them as posaible,-with as
little labor as possible in connection with them.
The honest poor, who would, perhaps, do best
among us, will not take a dishonest certificate,
and will, therefore, be kept out by the proposed
new law.
Another proposition, and one that strikes us a
good deal more effective, is the plan of the New
York Board of Emigration, viz: to hold the
American ship owners responsible, peculiarly, I
for bringing improper emigration upon us for
gain. These commissioners also define the pan
per emigration differently from the definition in
the bill of Mr. Wentworth, of Massachusetts.—
Thus, they call that person a pauper, who has re
oeived aid from any public (government) author
ities
whatever, within the year previous to his or
her emigration, or whose passage is paid wholly
or in part, directly or indirectly, by the authori
ties indicated above. They do not hold a person,
who has not been a charge to his or her fellow
citizens, or who has money enough of his own, or
given by his personal friends, to pay his way
over to this country, a pauper, antes from some
evident physical debility it is clear that on an ar
rival here, the party in question will not be able
to earn a livelihood by honest labor. These dis
tinctions strike us as ootrect, and worthy of the
attention of Congress. he New York board of
emigration, by the by, estimate that *20,000,000
in money has been brought into the country in
the last year by German emigrants. Yet they
regard the worthless German emigration as being
a far more grievous injury to our country than
any other it receives. They my that it is the
custom in Germany for able-bodied inhabitants
of a village to club together to come out to the
United States, leaving the infirm of their village
population to be a tax on their original neigh
borhood, which (through its government) raises
the funds to pack the disabled after the able-bod
ied. They say further, that after getting here,
as a general thing, the Irish, even though desti
tute of a penny on landing, if in health, at once
become profitable to the country. That is bard
workers. They keep such of the destitute emi
grants in their charge as can work, employed on
Ward's Island, N. Y. The Irish labor as faith
fully and cheerfully while supported at the pub
lic ooet as though receiving wages, while it is
rare to find a German thus employed, who re
ceiving no wages, does sot leek to give as little
labor as possible in return for his meagre sup
port. They say, still further, that the German
emigration into New York harbor, is now larger
than the Irish; and that 50,000 Irish come over
annually through means forwarded to them by
relatives in this country, a very much larger share
of which is sent over out of the hard earnings of
bungle domestics, than from those of the other
sex. This trait of true filial piety—that of la
boring in a far distant land to imprqire the eon
ditioa of loved relatives left behind them--is, to
say the heat of it, a oomniesidable ones noble
trait, indeed.

"A kind Providence has bestowed upon us,
with a liberal hand, all the elements of wealth
and patsies. Our inexhaustible coal tilde;
our nob iron deposits, limestone sverireAtre, dad
just where wow rersired; the interminable for
est, and our rushing strumnr, all invite the an
ew and enterprise of mu eitimns to the de
velopment of their treasures, and pnalliall a
rich reward to their lakes."
This is equal to Gen. Taylor's famous dedus
lion that the country was at "peso with a/1 the
world and the rest of mankind." Here, in
Pennsylvania, according to "geological" Pollock,
we have "limestone everywhere, and just where
most required;" a feet, by the by, if it be a feet,
that ought to be peculiarly gratifying to os in
Erie county. We, in our simplicity, bad sup
posed, there was no limestone here, "just where"
a good deal of that article is "most required;"
But we suppose we have no right to dispute the
Governor, especially when he so emphatically
declares that it is "everywhere, and just where
most required." This being the ease, the wee
nie engaged in the "limestone trade" betweea
this and the Island at the head of the Lake,
w ill find their "occupation gone." They may
as well trim their sails for another port. But
as the Johnstown Echo says, "How grateful we
ought to be to Providence for being so kind as
to furnish "limestone everywhere, awl jowl
where most required!" Bad "a kind Prerfi;
deuce" distributed "limestone everywhere,". and
left none "just where most required," the basi
-1 newt would have been beautifully botched. The
people in Pennsylvania owe a debt of gratitude
to Providence and Gov. Pollock—especially to
Pollock. What would it have profited if Provi

and their sufferings may be conceived, when we
state that they had torn three can to pieces for
fuel.
While our informant was at Bloomington, an
effort was made to reach the Efferent. Sleighs
were started off to the spot, but after s day of
weary labor, in which the hones were broken
down sad exhausted, they returned to Bloom
ington, having gone only twelve miles. The
great depth of the snow, the difficulty of get
ting through the huge drifts, lying at frequent
intervals along the prairies, the terrific force of
the wind, whichfilled the air with whirling
snow, and the almost insufferable severity of the
eold—made the attempt to retch the ears with
sleighs, a hopeless and futile task. So much
for dui-suffering on the Chicago and Mississippi
Road.
On the Illinois Central, affairs are worse still.
A train is frosen up near Decatur, and the
wretched passengers suffer, not only for lack of
fuel but for want of food, and, shocking to re
late, were compelled by the bitter necessities of
their condition to eat dogs to keep frost starting.
This fact is reliably stated in the Bloomington
and Springfield papers, and is further confirmed,
says our informant, by the testimony of indi
viduals in Blooinington. Indeed, it was a sub
ject of conversation in that city. We can image
how deplorable must be the situation of persons,
and to what extremities they are reduced, when
they have no other alternative than to eat dog
flesh to drive off the demon of starvation.
A Mr. Morgan, nephew of the Superintend
ent of the Chicago and Mississippi Road, had
both his legs frosen, and it is feared that many
others have suffered similar calamities. A like
condition of things prevails on the Rock Island
Railroad, though no detailed accounts from there
have reached us. Gov. Matteson had sent de
spatches to Bloomington to have the track clear
ed, that the trains might come throught, at any
expense. It was supposed yesterday in Spring
field that a sufficient number ot . absent Legisla
tors would get in today to constitute a quorum
in both houses.
We doubt very much, if the tracks will be
entirely cleared for several days longer yet, un
less human efforts are aided by the melting in
hence of the sun. There are business men of
St. Louis at Bloomington, anxious to get on to
New York, and others at Chicago, who are anx
ious to return home. A dispatch from Chicago,
yesterday, gives little reason to hope that the
track will be clearn as soon as we expected
The delayed mails will hardly reach here before
Sunday or Monday.
Front the Lake Superior Country
From the Detroit Laquirm
A party of four gentlemen left Marquette, on
Lake Superior, on the 10th of January, and tra
velling on the overland rout via Bay Noquet, ,
Green Bay and Milwaukee, a portion of them !
reached Chicago last week. The party consisted
of Peter White, Esq., Postmaster at Marquette,
G. W. Barr, of Erie, and F. C. Brooks, Esq. ,
and Dr. J. G. St. Clair. They came through
with Indian guides and dog trains, and furnish
some interesting information ihich is published
by the Chicago Tribune, at considerable detail.
The weather, up to the time of their departure,
had been mild, and less snow had fallen than at
Chicago. Indeed, the gentlemen declared that it
was much more difficult to keep from suffering
with cold in the latter place, at the present time,
than it was at Marquette.
On their way, before they reached Bay Noquet,
the party met the mail train. This was the only
mail that bad been seen in that vicinity for two
months. During all that time the entire country
from the Sant Ste. Marie to the St Louis River,
embracing the entire southern shore of Lake Su
perior, had been entirely destitute of a mail.
The mail which this party mat was in charge of
the contractor, who had engaged to carry a weekl y
mail from Bay Noquet to - Marquet• e ' and this
was his first attempt at doing so. The mail con•
slated of 76 bushels of matter--all of it of a valu
able description—letters and papers. Marquette
is now the only town on the Lake, between the
two points, the Sault and the St. Louis River,
to which a mail is carried at any season. There
are fifteen other points along the shore to which
no mails are sent at all, and the inhabitants of
which are cut off for half of the time at least from
all communication with the civilised world. More
than this, the contractors who has agreed to take
the weekly mail before spoken of, will have to
give up his contract, as the expense of transport
ing it is much greater, then the compensation al
lowed by the Department. The Postmaster Ge
neral seems to labor under tie impression that
the Lake Superior country is a desert, inhabited
only by Indians, traders, and a few copper min
ers; whereas, the country has already a popula
tion which is large and entitled to some of the
benefits of civilization.
The facts of the ease have often been repre
sented to the Department at Washington, but they
have as yet done nothing to secure mail facilities
to the Lake Superi9r region.
Upon reaching Green Bay, Mr. White left the
party there to return to Marquette, and the re
maining three pioneers pursued their journey
southward. Travelling through the storms of
Saturday and Sunday, they reached Chicago on
Tuesday morning. They fbund• the snow to be
deeper nearer the Lake, and think that the fall
of snow at Milwaukee, and north of that place,
was full as heavy as it was here, although back
from the Lake it was much, lighter.
Mr. Barr informs us that the copper mining
interest is suffering, in some degree for the want
of powder. Two vessels loaded with powder were
wrecked this fall upon the Lake, and the late
ness of the season prevented a new supply being
obtained. Some descriptions of provisions are
also becoming scarce, and the poeple will be
somewhat "out of sorts" before navigation re
opens, but there is no danger of a famine.
Horse feed was very scaroe. Corn was worth
four cents per pound, and Mr. Barr sold what
bay he had, just before coming away, at 150 per
ton. Pork was rather seatoe, but with careful
ness and economy, there would be enough to last
during the winter.
The mining operations were going along well
with the exoeption of the difficulty arising from
the want of powder.
The docks which Mr. Barr bad constructed at
Marquette had been swept away by a storm, but
bad been nearly rebuilt, sad the Railroads which
be had constructed to the Iran mountain was all
ready for the oars. The miners were at work at
the mountains, sad the ow w" raPidlY
produced. It is exceedingly pure. h ea l t h
of the po o l was good, and the. weather up to
the time of his &whin, 4a been very pleasant,
with but few exemptions. 1

Section 5 provides that on the acceptance-of this
act, as hereinbefore mentioned. and in a manner
satisfactory to the Governor, all the rights. privi

bonds, bearing an interest of not more than seven
per cent. All conflicting act.; are repealed.
The latter named bill has not yet been reported by
