ine this property.
1830 I—Patrons, one and all, we wish you a
happy New Year. May you all enjoy health
and prosperity from its commencement until its

The President's kessage.
The organization of Congress enables us to
lay before the readers of the Journal this week ,
the first annual message of President TAYLOR.
We have not the space for an extended notice
of this document, and if we had it would be on
nee aaaaa y. It is written in that lucid and for
cible style which has already won an enviable
fame for its distinguished author in his military
despateles and his Inaugural address, to say
nothing of the Allison and Marcy letters.—
The brevity of the message is also characteris
tic and highly commendable. The message is
dignified in its tone, and entirely free from the
political slang, which in modern times, has too
often found its way into official documents. We
must be allowed to congratulate the Taylor men
of Huntingdon county on the recommendations
of the message. All the promises made to the
People, in regard to the principles of Gmeral
Taylor, before the election, fife fully and nobly
sustained in the message.
The President goes for a PROTECTIVE
TARIFF, and strongly recommends a return to
the evstam of specific duties. This portion ut
the message will be received with a shout
throughout the length and breadth of Pennsyl
viola. It will revive the hopes of down-trodden
enterprise, and light up the faces of our oppress
ed laboring men with joy. It will become the
rallying cry of every true Pennsylvanian, until
Congress responds to the recommendation.
The message closes in a blaze of glory on the
'object of the Union. And we cannot refrain
from giving the remarks of the Baltimore Amer
ican in relation to this subject. That paper
lays : '.There is also apparent throughout an
elevated sentiment of patriotism, large and na
tional ; but what is especially prominent is that
indomitable purpose so characteristic of the man
who fought on the Rio Grande and at Buena
Vista, to carry out his own convictions of what
is right and proper, with a single eye to the
honor and well being of the country, irrespec
tive of all other considerations whatever. Go
on, old Hero ! You will not lack supporters.
The spear of Ithuriel was not more potent to
annihilate by a touch the swollen proportions of
demoniac rage and enmity, than will such words
of calm and determined manliness, be to dis
perse the whole fog of partizan, personal and
fanatical virulence, which has spread itself out
in advance to overwhelm the chosen of the peo
ple and to obscure the clear perceptions of the
public mind."
Congress—Speaker Elected.
The protracted contest for Speaker of the
House of Representatives was brought to a
close on Saturday evening, 22d ult., by the elec
tion of the Hon. Howell Cobb, of Georgia, the
Democratic candidate. On Saturday afternoon,
after a sitting during which much confusion
prevailed, the House passed a resolution offered
by Mr. Staunton, of Tennessee, providing that
after balloting, viva vine, three times without
a majority of the votes of the whole House be
ing given to any Member, the House shall then
proceed to ballot again, and en any such suc
ceeding ballot the Member receiving the largest
number of votes, if they be a majority of a quo
rum, shall be declared elected. Passed by yeas
113, nays 109. The House then proceeded to
ballot with the following results
Winthrop,
Ist ballot,
2d ..
3d .1
The resolution referred lo above now became
operative, and on the 4th ballot the vote stood
for Winthrop 100, for Cobb 102. One of the
tellers then declared the Hon. Howell Cobb, of
Georgia, to be elected. Mr. Stanley then of
fered a resolution declaring Mr. Cobb to be
speaks:, which was adopted.
The scattering vote on the final ballot was as
follows :
For Mr. Wilmot—Messrs. Allen, Booth,
Durkee, thdclings, Howe, Julian, P. King and
Root.
For Mr. A. H. Stephens—Mr. E. C. Cabell.
For Mr. Strong—Messrs. Cleveland, Doty
end Peck.
For 'r. Coleock.—Mr. Holmes.
For Mr. Morehead—Messrs. Morton, Owen,
Alexander H. Stephens and Toombs.
For Mr. Durkee—Mr. Wilmot,
For Mr. Potter—Mr. Wood.
For: Mr. Boyd—Mr. Woodward.
We are glad for the honor and safety of the
county that the struggle is over, and we think
the Whigs acted wisely and patriotically by vo
ting for the plurality principle, even though by
so doiii they did love their Speaker.
The Treasury Report.
The report of Secretary Msasurrtt, accom
panies the Presiden's Message. This docu
ment is pronounced by good judges one of the
most able that has ever emenated from the Trea
sury department. On the subject of the Tariff,
Mr. Meredith strongly recommends a return to
specific duties, and enforces his recommendations
with arguthents that scatter all Free Trade
theories to the wind's', We shall publish the
most interesting portions of this able paper, as
soon as we can find room.
Proceedings Relative to a Free Bridge
at Huntingdon.
To WILLIAM ORDISON, Esq,
At a meeting of
citizens in favor of a Free Bridge, held at J.
Whittaker's on Thursday evening, December
13, 1819.
On motion, DANIEL AFRICA, Esq., was call
ed to the chair, and A. W. BENEDICT appointed
Secretary.
On motion, a committee of three, viz : Dan
iel Africa, Esq., George Jackson and Thomas
Adams were appointed to wait upon William
Orhison, Esq., to ascertain from him, in accor
dance with the published Resolutions of a ma
jority of the Stock holders of the Juniata Bridge
company, what are the number of shares of
Capital Stock of said Company, and what sum
of money will be taken by said Company, fat
said Capital Stock of said Bridge, in order that
measures may be perfected to make said Bridge
free for the travel of every citizen.
On motion adjourned to meet at same place on
Saturday evening next, at 8 o'clock.
DANIEL AFRICA, Cbr'm.
SATURDAY EVENING, Dec. 15, 1843.
Pursuant to adjournment, a largo number of
citizens assembled at the public house of Jno.
Whittaker.
The committee appointed to confer with
Wm. Orbison, as to the terms upon which
the I' Juniata Bridge" could be purchased to
make said bridge free—
Reproted that they had called upon Mr. Or
bison, and that they had presented him with a
copy of the proceedings of the previous meeting
and had received from him the following reply
which was read to the meeting.
Iluicrinatior, 13th Dec. 18.19.
GENTLEMEN 1..4n answer to the request made
yr sterday by you in behalf of sundry citizens of
the borough of Huntingdon I now reply—The
stock of the rr Juniata Bridge company" con
si.ts of three hundred shares of $25 each, ma
king $7500, capital. In addition to this sum
the company paid (as appears by their books)
$768 57, to erect and complete the bridge &c.,
making the first cost thereof $8268 37 in all, and
the further sum of about $l3OO was expended
in repairing the damage done by the freshet in
October 1817.
With regard to the sum which the Stockhold
ers would be willing to accept in order that the
Bridge may be , g free for travel," I observe
that they are prepared to make a large sacrifice
for the purpose of attaining so desirable an ob
ject. But inasmuch as no offer has been made,
nor are there any persons legally authorized to
contract for the purchase of the bridge, I deem
it unnecessary to name any sum which would
be accepted; but, if desired, will proceed, in ac
cordance with the published Resolution of the
Board of Managers, to appoint disinterested ref
erees to fix the amount which shall be paid to
the Stockholders to indemnify them for their in
terest in said Bridge, whenever responsible per
sons are appointed and legally authorized to
make such reference, and become bound to abide
the result and comply with the terms proposed.
For the information of your constituents how
ever, I have further to observe that a general
meeting of the Stockholders is requested to be
held on the Bth of January next, for the purpose
of taking further action on the subject.
Very respectfuly.
Your ob't serv't.
W. ORBISON, Pres't
of the Board of Managers &c.
Messrs. Africa, Adams •&
Jackson, Committee.
P. S. 1 take leave respectfully to suggest to
the citizens in favour of having the Bridge made
free" to open a subscription in order to ascer
tain what amount of money can be raised for the
purpose. The Stockholders are so anxious to
meet their views, that perhaps the necessity of
the proposed reference may be obviated.
When on motion it was resolved that David
Blair, Esq, John Williamson, Esq.) David Mc-
Murtrie, Jas. Clark & David Snare, Esq., be
a committee to report resolutions expressingthe
sense of the meeting in relation to the measure
of securing a free bridge across the Juniata at or
near Huntingdon ; and to make such suggestions
as may be deemed advisable to further the ob
ject desired.
The Committee reported the following :
Yonr committee beg leave to report the
following resolutions for the consideration of the
meeting:
Ist. Resolved, That the experience of every
day of every citizen of this Borough and vicini
ty satisfies us that the wants of the community
and the travelling public imperatively demand a
free bridge at or near Huntingdon.
2nd. Resolved, That tile eifort made by those
entrusted to secure this desirable object by the
purchase of the toll Bridge from the Stockhold
ers, Las not been met by a corresponding desire
on the part of the owners of said Bridge.
3d. ite,o/e.f./, That the letter received to day
from the President of the Board in answer to a
communication of the highly respectable com
mittee of the citizens is indefinite and unsatis
factory—satisfying the meeting of but one thing
certainly ,and that is that the owners of said bridge
do not desire or intend to sell out said Bridge
on such terms as would warrant the hope of
making it a free Bridge, or authorize this meet- 1
ing to continue further negotiations for its pur
chase.
Cobb.
41h. Resolved, That our only hope is with
the justice of the Grand Jury and the liberality
of the Commissioners of the county, and to them
we will appeal for remedy and redress.
Which were unanimously adopted.
When on motion resolved, That the proceed
ings of both meetings, together with the letter
of Mr. Orbison, be published in the i papers of
the county.
