OEN. =MIN HAS one
Last night's mail brought us a Harrisburg Tele
graph, containing a communication, over the signa
ture of 'Old Mifflin,' making a most malicious, low,
mean and jealous attack upon Gen. JAMES IRVIN
and his numerous friends, which we may hereafter
notice more at large. The communication referred
to teems with venom and falsehood from beginning
to end, and altogether, is such a production as could
hardly emanate from any one but a Locofoco, be
coming desperate at seeing the certainty of the Gen
eral's nomination and electim as Governor of the
State.
The Shoemaker and the Tariff.
' The New York Sun states that the old saying,
shoemaker stick to your last," is about being veri
fied in the shoemakers protesting against any alter
ation being made to the Tariff, by which their dis
tinct interest may be affected. It is supposed that
there are not less thnn 150,000 journeymen shoema
kers in the United States—quite an army, and more
over, 30,000 females who are employed in binding
shoes. We must confess, numerically speaking,
that this is an interest requiring great consideration,
and we might add protection. It appears, however,
that the free trade papers are calling for a reduction
of the duty on shoes, and the shoemakers are quite
alarrhed, declaring that they cannot compete with
French shoemakers who receive but forty cents per
day, as the highest wages; and, moreover, they say
that a mechanic's dinner in France is a. piece of
bread—an apple—a pear—and a pennyworth of
brandy.
Printers' Investigation.
The Clay Bugle says the Printers' investigation
is. progressing slowly. From testimony elicited it
'~~nww AO din omen* of flub netnArrnotinn of Mr
k.ite-fifth—the Pennsylvania Intelligences an inter
est to the amount of s3ooo—and the Pennsylvania
Telegraph to the amount of $2500. These ar
rangements were entered into amongst the printers
themselves, but it has not appeared that any
member of the Legislature bribed, or in any
way unduly influenced to cast his vote for Mr. itt'-
Kinley. There is thus far, therefore, no fraud
shown, as alleged in the Governor's message. The
transaction was a legitimate business operation, and
unless it can be shown that undue influences ope
rated upon the members, the contract with Mr:
M'Kinley, on the part of the State, is unquestiona
bly binding and cannot be annulled.
Gen. Tames Irvin,
The Perry Freeman says:—We observe that the
Ron. James Irvin is rapidly gaining the affections
of the Whigs in this State—he has long had their
full confidence, and what is the beauty of the whole
matter, has richly deserved it. He is now, perhaps,
the most prominent candidate for Governor, since
the positive declination of Mr. M'Kennan, and every
day is developing the hold his services in his coun
try's cause have upon the minds of the masses of
the Whigs. He is, it is admitted on all hands, a
gentleman of great moral worth, whose integrity no
one who !knows him pretends to question. We
peceive recently that several counties that have ap
pointed delegates to the 4th of March Convention,
have instructed them to support Gen. Irvin as the
candidate for Governor. That he is a strong man
‘admits of not the shadow of a doubt. He has sig
nalized himself in Congress by his able, persevering
advocacy of the Tariff. His talents, though not of
the most brilliant character, are highly suitable for
the otEoe of the Executive, being respectable, useful,
solid, comprehensive—just the kind a statesman
should possess.
Gen. Irvin and the Tariff.
The Washington correspondent of the Philadel
phia Forum notices memorials sent to Congress
from New York, by agents of the British importing
houses; and after correcting some of their most
glaring inaccuracies by statistics relating to hard
ware, concludes with the following paragraph.
I have a great quantity of most valable informa
tion on similar subjects, which I hope soon to lay
before you, in proof that protection lowers pnces.—
I glean this from the extensive correspondence of
Hon. Limas farm, of your State, whose zeal in
defence of the Tariff, is second to that of no man
living. Happy will it be for Pennsylvania, if the
movements of his friends should succeed in placing
in the Governor's chair, a gentleman whose feelings
are so eminently Pennsylvanian, and whose entire
energies are devoted to giving permanency to our
Whig Tariff.
CY We extract the following article from the
editorial columns of the . North American and
Daily Advertiser," one of the ablest and most influ
ential papers published in the city of Phil's.
THE NEXT GOVERNOR.
Mt. McKennan, having declined, absolutely, the
uheinatorial nomination, it is still the duty of the
Whig party to survey the whole field, and carefully
to select the most suitable man.
The recent vote of the Pennsylvania Delegation
in Congress, against disturbing the existing Tariff,
must be viewed as a remarkable indication of the
popular sense of Pennsylvania in favor of the pro
tective policy of the country. It is, therefore, of the
first importance, to select for the Executive office a
man distinguished for his adherence to, and advo
cacy of, the tariff principle, and whose character and
abilties are such as will command the confidence of
men of all parties, opposed to the doctrines of free
trade.
--
The presentation of such a cindidate, on the part
of the Whigs, would tend inevitably to increase
Mr. Clay's majority for President in Pennsylvania.
In looking over our exchange files, we find the fol
lowing Journals support Gen. James Irvin as their
first choice for Governor:—Huntingdon Journal,
Hollidaysburg Register, Bellefonte Whig, Muncy
Luminary, Clinton County Whig—also, the Lew
istown Gazette, Cambria Gazette, Bradford Argus,
and other prominent Whig papers, seem to prefer
Gen. Irvin ; while the Harrisburg Telegraph, and In
telligencer, Philadelphia Inquirer, the Forum, and
other leading Whig papers, have noticed Gen. Irvin,
as in their estimation—after Mr. McKennan—de
cidedly the strongest and best selection, as the
Whig candidate for Governor.
We have hitherto made favorable mention of
Gen. Irvin in connexion with the Executive office,
and since the withdrawal of Mr. McKennan we
have been at some pains to examine more into the
character, standing and public services of Gen. Irvin,
and our avorable impressions have not been dimin
ished by this examination. He is unquestionable
a very popular man,—and that too, where he is
likely to be best known—at home, in his own dis
trict, which, though a decided Locofoco district, sent
the General fifteen hundred votes ahead of his
ticket, and elected him to Congress. We have
heard recently, some things of his worth and be
nevolent cbaracter,that are truly an honor to human
ity. We would relate them here, were they not of
a private—and therefore, as we think of a sacred
nature. _ . .
We trust, that in this brief notice of what is said
and thought by many of the friends of Gen. Irvin,
we shall be regarded as the exponent, not the dic
tator of popular sentiment. We shall abide the
nomination of the Whig Convention, and aid it,
with our humble efforts, be the candidate whom
he may.
Gen. Irvin, it is proper to state, is a large manu
facturer in Pennsylvania, and is thus by gages an,
safe pledges' the fast friend of the Tariff, in his
Representative, and in his private capacity.
ol• A correspondent of the Daily Forum of the
26th inst., discourses as follows :
Ma. Eamon:--It is a gratifying circumstance,
and certaily complimentary to the Whig party, and
the principles they avow, that they are enabled to
offer for consideration the names of many gentle
men as eminently fitted to occupy the gubernatorial
chair—no one has a more high opinion of the can
didate named by your correspondent Penn Jr.' in
your paper of yesterday, than I have, yet I fear Mr.
Toland's merits are not so generally known through
out our Commonwealth as they deserve to be.
Permit me to name a gentleman who, possessing
all the requisite qualifications our candidate should
have, has unbounded popularity in the counties
bordering the Susquehunnah river, as well as in
western Pennsylvania, and who is sufficiently well
known in the eastern part of the State, to ensure him
the entire vote of the party—l allude the Hon.
ism. Timm of Centre county. I perceive your
i n te Ilig en t correspondent, • Harry Birch,' in a
recent letter from Washington, speaks i n just terms
of his labors in Congress relative to the Tariff, of
tvoth -FgrailYnAndtwal-rizas tWaMerfUL
is the most popular candidate the Whigs can nomi-
nate.
Reduction of Postage.
This subject is now occupying a large share of
public attention in many of our large cities, and in
fact, throughout the country generally. To those
who have much business to transact through the
Post Office, the present exorbitant rates of postage
are highly oppressive indeed. They are the more
insufferable because altogether unnecessary, as it is
reduced to an almost moral certainty, that a reduo.
lion of one half or three fourths from present rates,
would increase the revenue of the Post Office by the
additional matter that would be transmitted through
the mails.
Major Noah, in a late number of his Messenger,
thus illustrates the oppressive tendency of the pres
ent rates of postage, which he follows up in his
usual pithy stylo of reasoning.
REDUCTION OF POSTAGE.
What are you waiting for, my poor woman,'
said a kind citizen to a sickly-looking creature who
for three successive mornings stood looking wist
fully towards the Post Office windows.
'Sir,' said she, 4 I have a letter in the office lima
my husband in Wiekonsin—the postage is twenty
five cents and I have only ten cents to pay for it.'
Tho difference was charitably mode up and she
got her letter. Is this a novel case Not so, it
daily occurs among the poorer classes. Why is
not a ten cent piece sufficient postage for th t
letter'!
. Because,' says the Government, ,wo cannot
make a revenue out of it.'
Make revenue, what right have you to tax the
people for revenue, when the people have Arcady
conveyed to you more revenue than is required with
proper economy, to defray the expense. of the na
tion Make revenue"! How much do you make
by the navy ? or by the army I or out of the soni
c.] of the public officers?'
Oh! nothing; we pay their expenses.'
Then why not pay for the transportation of the
mails?'
Why, because, that is a public conveyance, and
the public must puy for it.'
Do you, who ar, called public servants, pay for
your letters ?'
'Oh! no—we aro privileged; our letters are
franked.'
So, so, then, it is free postage for the Govern
ment and high postage to the people.'
I tell you what my friends, it is high time that
the people should assert their right as sovereigns—
for their representatives.seem to forget the fact. It
has been asked, but never answered, why are the
people to be severely taxed for the Post Office de
partment, when the other departments are paid out
of the people's money 1 The people by this high
postage tax pay for toes of free letters and free pack
ages. If franking was abolished, or restricted, the
expenses of transporting the mail would be so redu
ced as to require no higher postage than ten cents.
Unless there is a reform in this matter, the Post
Office laws will be violated.
oj=•lt is not generally known, that by subscri
bing to Gorlpy's Lady's Book—price only $3, you
get one of the handsomest Annuals published this
season, gratis, the store price of which is $2 50, and
the most popular work of the day for one year.—
This is the proper season to commence. The Jan

most beautiful periodical in America. Old sub-

1844, will also rcceive'rhe Drawing Room Annual,

ING or VESSELS, BCC.—W right's Indian Ve
getable Pills are certain to prevent the a
bove dreadful consequences, because they
purge from the body those morbid humors
which, when iloatipg in the general circu
lation, are the cause of a determination or
rush of blood to the head, a pressure upon
the brain, and other dreadful results.—
From two to six of said Indian Vegetable
Pills, taken every night, on going to bed,
will in a short time so completely cleanse
the body from every thing that is opposed
to health that sudden death, apoplexy,
bursting of blood vessels, or indeed any mal
ady, will be in a manner impossible.
Wright's Vegetabie Indian Pills also aid
and improve digeston, and purify the blood
and therefore give health and vigor to the
whole frame, as well as drive disease of
every name from the body.
Beware of Counterfeits.—The public are
cautioned against the many spurious medi
cines which in order to deceive are made
in outward appearance, closely to resem
ble the above wonderful Pills.
