The 'amount in circulation within the

five Millions of dollars; and is valueless ;

this Circulation, the constitutional Cur

quired to grant a license to said bank to
establish said agency or branch, and to
issue said notes, marked by the said of
ficer as the issue of the said branch and
redeemable at the counter of the parent
institution ; a sound convertible curren

and would afford security to the citizens,
without a withdrawl of the necessary

The general Mantifticturing law of
the last session cannot fall to be produc
tive of decided benefit to the State and
the people. Although the time which
has elapsed since its passage, has been
insufficient to test its advantages, the

places, which must soon afford employ

citizens, warrants the belief that its sal

day.
Representations have been made to
this department alleging that by the
erection of a bridge over the Ohio river,
at or near Wheeling Vu., great obstruc.
tion to the navigation of that highway
has been producd. In times of high
water in the river, the largest class of
steamboats are unable to pass under the
bridge, and serious injury to the com
merce of the western part of the state,
must result from this unisance. Con
nected as is the Ohio, with the line of
internal improvements through Pennsyl
vania, and furnishing to our canals and
railroads, a large amount of merchan

The expression of our opinions on
questions more directly belonging to
the national government, is a right ari

and where they are intimately connected
with the interests of the people, be
comes a duty not to be disregarded.—
The representatives in Congress of the
state and the citizens, aivare of the ten
dency of measures do the prosperity of
their constituents, end knowing the re
sponsibility of their exalted position,
must regard ttith becoming favor, a de
liberate declaration dr phtilic sentiment
froth the state they represent. Enter
taining these views, and persuaded that
questions of vital importance to the
well-being of our beloved Commonwealth
will claim the attention of Congress, I
have deemed it 'right, on this Occasion,
briefly to refer to it few of those which
may be considered of greatest culise
quente to the welfare of the people.
The adjustment of the revenue laws
for the protection of the peculiar inter
ests of Pennsylvania must be regarded
as a measure deeply affecting all classes
of society. In relation to the policy of
the national governments on this sub—
jeCt, the manufacturer, the artisan, the
agriculturalist, and the laborer, feel alike
that their business and pursuits, are ele
vated or depressed, as protection is at
forded or withheld. In the history of
the past, they are furnished with lessons
for the future. The events of the past
season have afforded conclusive evidence
in the closed doors and deserted buil
dings of the manufactories in the dis
tresses of the laborer, and the general
depression of profitable industry, of the
imperative necessity, for a system of
laws tvhich will sustain against foreign
competition, the employments of our cit
izens,
When profitable investments, and
useful capital are stricken down ;—when
surplus produce finds diminished prices;
and When labor is depressed, and indus
trious operatives are thrown out of on-
ploy ;—ncither party dogmas, nor local
interests ; nor sectional jealouses, should
prevent a united energetic effort in our
National Representatives, to restore the
general prosperity.
Cin the application for the admission
of new states into the Union, the sub
ject of the extension of slavery will
claim the attention of Congress. Our
Southern brethern, united by long asso
siation and habit with this institution,
and depending upon it in a large degree
for their domestic comfort and commer.
cial advantages, ivill not willingly al
low of its exclusion from territories be
longing to the General Government. No
disturbance is contemplated of their re
lations there With, In Stateswhere it now
exists, Holding their slaves by com
promise and concession, it would Involve
on our part, a breach of faith, and an
interterdnee with the sovereignity of
sister Republics to intermeddle with
their social policy, or to controvert the
legality of their domestic relations.—
Whatever injury may be inflicted on
Northern interests from the jealousies
incident to the existence of the institu
tion, and the effort to prostrate free la
bor, a sacred regard for our pledged faith
admonishes us to sutler, rather than at
tempt reformation where our authority
will not be acknowledged, The exten
sion of the evil beyond its present limits,
discloses a very different feature. The
consent of the free States of the Union
to its further progress, Would evince an
ignorance of their true interests, of the
rights of justice and humanity, and an
indifference to the character and dignity
of their common country. Where these
are implicated, it is an abandonment of
duty to compromise. So fully were the
views of the Executive expressed on the
subject of the Tariff and the extension
of slavery, in a former message, that a : 1
reference to them here, as embracing his
present sentiments thereon, would ap
pear to be sufficient.
The dissemination among the people
of information affecting their peace and
prosperity, should be regarded its a mea
sure of sound wisdom, and should be
shackled by no unnecessary exactions.
To give to the citizens of and section of
a common country, a correct knowledge
of the wants, the opinions, and general
condition of the people of other portions
thereof, should be the aim of all wise
legislatioti on the subject. Nothing
would tend more strongly to dissipate
sectional jealousies and dislikes, arid to
unite in sentiments of neighborly kind
ness, every part of this great eonfeder.
eq. Intercourse, whether produced by
the agency of railroads, or of telegraph;
by personal or Written communications;
is an agency to heal dissentions, and to
foster social charities, more potent than
national laws, To tax beyond the ne
cessities of government, the intercourse
of our citizens, creates a barrier to the
disseminution of knowledge; and assists
in estranging the affections of the differ
ent portions of the republic. In this
view of the subject, the ra'es of postag e
charged by the national government b
: comes a question of deep importance,
and sound wisdom would dictate a re
duction of present charges.
It cannot fail to be perceived that the
: observations in relation to postage, as
connected with national intercourse, op
plies with equal force to improvements
in the modo of traVel between remote
sections of the country. Whatever fa ,
cilitates free coiffinudiention among the
Citizens, strengthens the unity of gov
ernment. Whether from the character
of the country and the nature of its sur
face, it is practicable to construct a great
national thoroughfare from the Mis
sissippi to the Pacific Ocean, has not
been fully ascertained; but it must be
evident, that such an improvernent
Would be of inestimable value to every
portion of the Union:
In addition to the opportunities ft
would affo-d of an interchange of hos
pitalities between the people of remote
seetidns, it %bould not fail to be loaded
with a trade as profitable to the country
as it would be important to different lo
t alities. To Pennsylvania, its benefits
Can scarcely be imagined. The im
provements already made, and those in
progress in this State, connecting with
the public works of other States, will
soon form one unbroken Chain of com
munication from the AtlahtiC to the Mis
sissippi. Were this gigantic work com
pleted, no man can estimate the solid
End social advantages which must ensue
to every section of country united there
, with ; and in no place would its saluta
ry results be more effectual than within
our own borders. The subject is °mi=
nently worthy the serious attention of
the legislature.
In a - faithful adherence to the nation
al Constitution, as the same has been
expounded by the sages and patriots of
other days, the people of Pennsylvania
rely for the perpetuation of their politi•
cal, social arid religious liberty. Al
though in its provisions may be found
the acknowledgement of principles they
do not approve, it is esteemed by
them as the fundatnental law of the coun
try, and they reverence it as the con
summation of Wisdom and patriotism,
devoted to the general welfare, When
sectional interests and jealousies con
tend for supremacy, and sectional rights
are to be determined—When questions
between States are controverted, and
disregard of national law is manifested
—in peace and war, in prosperity and
adversity—in foreign or domestic diffi
culties, the citizensof Pennsylvania turn
with abiding confidence to the National
Constitution. neither the thirst for
power, nor the phrensy of party, nor the
prostration of their peculiar interests
can shake their allegiance to the Na
tional government, or raise with them
the traitor cry of disuninn. The senti
ments expressed, and the language used
on the subject, by the father of his coun
try, are so appropriate to the period in
which we live, that I have deemed it
proper to call your attention to the fol
lowing brief extant from his Farewell

On Wednesday of last week, we mailed at
Harrisburg, several messages, directed to the

hands in the office, none of which arrived at the
Huntingdon P. O. Until yesterday (Monday)
morning. This outrageods carelessness on the
part of some Post Master has greatly delayed
our publication of the message, and otherwise,
seriously incommoded us. We are inclined to
ciiarge the fault on the Ilarrisburg office ; and if
we are correct, we hope the Post Master at
that place will receive an intimation from the

him to pay Entire attention to the interests of

The Locos, of course, re-elected Mr. Jack,

The SeNATt met at 3 o'clock. Pram the anxi=

evident that they feared trouble before them.
The vdting commenced: The Locos voted for
Mr. Brawley and the Whigs for Mr. Matthias.
Mr. Best, of Columbia, an independent Dem
ocrat, cast his vote for Mr. Streeter. For sev

on the seventh cast their whole vote for Mr.
Best. Several 'notions Were tridde by Locofoco

This distinguished Whig has been
paid the following compliment by the

decided and Virulent an opponent, it is
a high tribute to his worth.
Mr: Winthrop, we are at all times
ready to concede, is a gentleman of fine
talents, highly cultivated intellect,
and accomplished manners; and al
though a warm and decided party man,
we believe he has ever been governed
' in his political career by pure intentions
arid patriotic sentiments. While he
was Speaker, he presided with great
dignity and abilitydoing credit to
himself, arid reflecting honor upon the
State which he represented, and the
body over which he presided. He is a
gentleman in whose talents and public

take pride.
