each county one representative then they
recommend anarchy.
The language of the constitution rela
tive to representation remains unaltered,
and according to the provisions of that!
constitution must be construed as it was!
before the convention met. So said the
convention and so said„the people. Yet
this Gubernatorial mouth piece commands
another construction, and if they cannot !
succeed in making the Senate join with
them in their wicked deeds, and thus fail
itt consutnating that violation, this same
press recommends another violation and
that is, not to pass any laws under the new
constitution and leave 'things as thry now
stand.' Or, in other words, leave the pow
er and patronage in the hands of the Gov
ernor —the very thing t".ey desk! , ; and
v e have not much doubt upon our mind s
that they intend to make some law th e
bone of strite between themselves and the
Senate, pretending that they ` want the
grnate to pass it when they know in their
hearts they will not; and thus take advan
tage of it and say the Senate would k not
go with them. And then they leave the
constitutional provision for the election
of Prothonatories &c. drc. untouched, and
they and their partisans still hold the pow
er, and in truth leave our state without
any constitutional law. The constitution
says that at this session certain laws shall
be passed. If not passed the legislator
who is guilty of hindering such passage
violates his oath, and we cannot conceive
how the laws can then be passed until
there shall be some further constitutional
provision. _
We would ask our readers if such senti
tnents as are expressed by the Keystone
inthe extract do not go far to say that the
present dog keeping government with its
"Gamblers, drunkards, rowdies, thieve?
andpedurevs," care as little for the su
preme law of the land as they care about
some old nursery song. Such doctrines
as arc there expressed are revolutionary
in character and calculated to destroy all
the old republican land -marks of equality
And right. fie call on the people to watch
Stith a careful eye, the operations of these
desperadoes, and see if they do not

ocracy which must eventually destroy our

The rip-penny-bit CoNarn.
‘Nr. have just returned from a trip upon
the Sunemit, where we went to enjoy, for
a short time, the good cheer of Mr Mallet t

had an oppoitunity of seeing the opera.
tions of Ibis Vip aj'air," the new collec
tors office. That important office which
we some time since recorded as having
zollected one fp of our state revenue.—
Since which time webelieve they have col
lected another fip from some' prior d-1
who had' mounted a bumping bean's and
ridden alit he mountain. 1 suppose they
will demand that they receive the honor
l
of their title, and now be called the 'leven- 1
Pence concern.
But seriously. There never was a
grosser violation of right or a more wilful
robbery of the peoples 'terse than the cre
ation of a collectors office on the Summit,
of the Allegheny mountain'. The whole
amount of toll cannot pay the sallary of.
the collector, unless he can persuade sonte
of the companies to pay their toll to him
in order to swell the aminount. There is
nothing that he has occasion to clear at i
that office, except coal, and ,not much of
that. To clear Which it is necessary to .
krrow the weight, which can only be learn
ed by passing to the foot of the mountain
on one side or the other, where the scales
are, and when there we cannot see why
the toll may not as well be paid there.
But in this case it was necessary Ilya this
faithful servant should have an office and
they created this one for him, and allow
hint to keep o clerk beside, Anil all this•
is done under the a hninistration which
complained sir loudly about increasing
officers. Yet they created new collectors,
State agents &c. in shoals, and some of
the people are disposed to say it was
right.
Liberality,
The present administration have evin
ced great liberality in appointing aliens
to office. While the honest and sober
citizen of this country is obliged to take
a back seat, they pick up the pensioners
of a foreign power and make thou► pen.

A Mr Levers, \Veighn►aster at Johns.'
town, it appears is at this day receiving
pay for fighting against this country, lie
draws a pension from the
QUEEN. Yet he is the pampered tool of
a party Claiming to be Democratic. Heave n
save the mark.
The Democratic Journal bestows th e
lash unsparingly upon such high handed
'measures, whereupon the Mountaineer
Itells his readers that the Journal is "nail
ed to the counter," by saying that Mr.
Levers "never received a pension for
1 00-hting against the United States." But
he says that "he teas a Midshipman in the
British Navy and for this he may receive
or be entitled to a pension." So that with
all his nailing lie admits himself that the
satin Mr Levers it a pensioned sui feet of
a BRITISH MONARCH. What do you
think of it readers. Is not this liberatiOn
with a vengeance. When the pensioned
followers of that tyrant who, in the days
of our darkest trial, sought to enslave us
on land and sea, are now the tools of a
Demacratic Administration.
The Pit!sburg Gazette says of the
Pour Invedor of that city, "We do not
believe that he has ever been naturalized,
we arz assured that he has never voted in
his own ward." Here is another case
where a fellow has fled from the storms or
the law of the old country and found a
home here, yet not such a home as he is
willing to swear feality to, has been allow-
ed to over-reach some of our native citi.
zeus. II hat liberality, and this too is the
administration which commenced a cru
sade against the last, because sonic yaw
kees where among its numbers. This
new administration hates the yankees
whose fathers fought, inch by inch, the
ground of Lexington and Bunker
'against the pensioned slaves of a British
King. But they will hug to their bosom
the subjects of that monarch who, no dtrabt,
rejoiced in the bloodiest defeats of the
yankee rebels. If the people are satisfied
with such things—be it so.

Oratory and Music.
Professor Bronson, a gentleman whose
abilities to inrtract upon the above sujects
are unquestionable, delivered a lecture in
our town on Saturday evening. Absence
from home robbed us of the pleasure of
attending the lecture. I;e have never
heard him, but fame tells a flattering
tale of his power to tnstruct and. amuse.
Flu has been lecturing for a few nights
and with much success at Hollidaysburg,
and we regret exceedingly that the inhab
itants of our town did not give encourage
ment enough to induce him to stay longer.
There is a woeful lack of that spirit which
gives encouragement to Lecturers whose
labors are calculated to improve the mind
and advance his hearers in the scale of
intelectual improvement. Nor need we
stop here in our censure upon some of the .
easy besetting sins of oar borough, some ,
malicious and evil disposed boys indulged
in the amusement of throwing stones
through the windows. of the Court House
during the lecttfre.
We cannot let tlie opportunity pass of
bestowing our well merited censure upon
such conduct. Nor are the boys alone
calpable. Their parents, guardians, or
friends do net perform► their duty to
themselves, the children and the commu
nity, when they allow of such vile and
blackguard conduct. It is a reproach to
our town and the authorities of it, when
those who are willingttienjoy everyoppor
tunity of acquiring information on any
useful subject must be annoyed and en
dangered by the malicious mischief of
others; and our citizens owe it to them
selves and the welfare of the town, not
only to frown upon but to use every means
to punish the perpetrators—be they who
they may.

Yesterday was the day for the re-as
sembling of the Legislature. Pre shall
keep a record of their doings. .
The bank of the Metropolis has been
robbed by one of its clerks, of $50,000.
The money was all recovered but $2OO.
It appears that the clerk was in the habit
of getting most gloriously drunk, and
hopes toscreen himself from punishment,
by proving that when drunk he is crazy.
The distress in Mississippi still contir -
ues, and seems to increase. It is said,
that in one day there were 5000 notes of
fered at the Union Bank for discount,
amounting to fifteen millions of dollars.
Thousands who have rolled in luxury, are
reduced to penury and want.
About-a year ago, Boston was beset by
a gang of London burglars, who commit
ted almost nightly some depredation.—
Pursuit finally became so hot upon them,
they (led the country, and returned to
London. By the last arrival of the Great
Western, information was received that
some of the gang were again on their re
turn to this country, in the packet ship
i
Gladiator. Old gap immediately prod
ceeded to the conductor of the Telegraph,
and arranged with him to communicate
the first knowledge of that ship's arrival
On Wednesday afternoon last, she was
telegraphed as below. The officers vt
the police waited quietly until she ancho•
red in the stream, went on board, and at
tended them to a boarding house at the
expense of the State, until called for by
the Governer of Massachusetts.
Another gang were discovered in Alra
ter St. N. Y. and the pick-locks, false keys
and other tools were found, and some sto
len goods, the keeper of the house was ar
rested, but the gang got wind of the af
fair and escaped.
The Baltimore Butchers I:are agreed to'
charge no more than 1.2 i per pound for the
lbest pieces of beef, and if they cannot buy
cattle of the farmers which allow of it,
they are determined to vacuate their
stalls.
