rf Gen. WILLIAM H. IRWIN, Adju

office on the 17th ult. Gen. Irwin was an
active and valuable officer. The reforms
introduced into the Military Department
of the State have saved annually *20,000

ile - By the Auditor General's Report
we see that the Canal and Railroad tolls
for the last year amounted to $1,719,788, ►
-
54—We also see that these same canals
and railroads during the same year, cost,
for repairs, improvements &e, *l, 804,- '
246,00, thus showing that it cost to keep ,
them up $84,457,46m0re than they brought!
in. If this is the way the State works are
to be conducted, we would advise the State
to give them away as soon as she can get
any person to take them.
The improvements since 1846 have been
costing yearly, from three to four hundred
thousand dollars more than previous to that
time. There is a proposition in the senate
for a general investigation, by Mr. 3luhlen
burg a democrat, who believes that the
whole works are one scene of corruption
and plunder. We are told that the check
rolls from this division are loaded down
with corruption anti death until perjury
grins in the beholder's face. We are
making arrangements to get the special
facts, which we will make known as soon !
as we get them in a proper shape. We
hope that the investigation will go on, and
that the officers on the public works, all
over the State, who are reveling, in at
least a competency, shall be subjected to
the searching ordeal of public justice.
There has been a committee appointed
in the lower house, which does not appear
to suit the canal thieves, and the body of
the locofocos are raising heaven and earth
to get a reconsideration, and as a matter
of course a more favorable committee. We
are glad to see some democrats exerting
themselves in favor of an honest and fear
lees
investigation. If the result should
be to put some of the canal officers in the
penitentiary, we will not mourn at it.—
The people would like to know, who
has- their thousands and millions of dol
lar* of stolen money. It is an undeniable
fact that the officers on the public
works are making more money than
any other class of people. This is not
hard to account for, when the same bill
of lumber is sold twice to the canal and
the check rolls filled up after they are
sworn to.

The Negro Exclusion Bill.
Judging from certain kinds of legisla
tion, both actual and attempted, we are
often driven to the conclusion, that the
legislators themselves have no very even
tolerable appreciation of the fact, that
there is a God in heaven or a devil in hell.
Frequently again, we mitigate the severity
of our judgment, and while we concede to
them a fair proportion of moral honesty,
we charge to the respective accounts of
barbarism and ignorance, the ninny delin
quencies of both their hearts and their
heads. Statutes are often passed and
measures proposed, which violate every
dictate of humanity, and social well being,
and at the same time the actors will move
in the society they have injured with about
the same unconcern as does a fiend of dark
ness in the dismal chambers of perdition.
We will not be guilty of the uncharitable
ness of supporting them actuated by such
great malice towards their species, but will
treat them as though they were willing to
do right, if they were only properly taught.
A bill has been introduced into the low
er House of the Pennsylvania Legislature,
by Blair from Centre county, prohibiting
under heavy penalties the immigration of
negroes and mulattoes into this Common
wealth. The negroes themselves are im
prisoned from two to nine months, if con
victed of coming into this State, and per
sons who harbor or employ them are also
liable to criminal prosecutions. If the
bill applied only to fugitive slaves,
there could be mustered up a constitution
al or legal argument in its favor, but it
applies to both bond and free. It may be
well enough here to remark, that we have
no desire for the settlement of that kind of
people in our midst; but at the same Gina
we deprecate that humanity, which denies
to any of God's human creatures the com
fort of a home when there is plenty of room.
We accord to every person, who is not
bound to a master, the right to go where
soever he pleases, being always responsible
for any violation of the laws of the country
to which he may go or through which he
may pass. If a negro obeys the law and
supports himself by his honest industry we
can see no reason why his existence should
not be tolerated. There has no new event
transpired in this Commonwealth or coun
try in relation to the colored race demand
ing their exclusion, which did not exist,
ten, twenty or thirty years ago. The mere
fact that the State of Indiana, for a local
reason totally inapplicable to us, excluded
them from that State, is no reason that we
should do so. The real reason of the in
troduction of this measure before the le
gislature and the country at this time is—
because the mover supposes that there is
still a little stinking fame or notoriety to
be gathered from the remains of the late
slavery agitation. The bill bears no re
semblance to statesmanship—it is a little
barking whiffet—a decided pup. The next
measure with which the gentleman. from
Centre shall astonish the House, way more
than likely be a bill to prohibit education
and religious instruction to the colored
race. He is probably longing to see the
day when he shall behold the negro uned
ucated and untaught, snorting and puffing
in all his ancient and barbaric grandeur.--
He wishes to reform luau and improve soci
ety by the little pinching process of crim
inal prosecution—and should he discover
in society an element of social evil, which,
it would be desirable to eradicate, in cast
ing about for the remedy, his eye would
immediately fall on the sombre fabric of
the penitentiary as the great regenerator
of the body politic. It would never occur
to the narrow heads and frozen hearts of
the advocates of this bill, that a reasonable
portion of Gov. Wolf's common schools
and our Lord and Saviour last will and
testament properly administered, might
cheat the Penitentiary out of a respec
table number of both Ethiopian and Cau
casian. blackguards. If the gentleman
from Centre could be impressed with the
conviction, that these, and not prisons,
were the-true civilizers of man,. he might
probably withdraw his diabolical little bill
I and supplicate his outraged and offended
God to pardon him for the villainy and•
! wickedness he was about to perpetrate.
He has not in a lengthy and luminous
speech, detailed to us the evil intended to
be remedied by this Gulliverian stroke of
statesmanship. We are left in profound
doubt as to whether it was prompted by mal
ice to the colored rece general, or love
for himself, though probably the most im
pelling motive was fawning puppyism.—
We denounce the measure in the name of
all that is righteous in heaven and chari
table on earth. We denounce it because
it is cheaper and more convenient to edu
cate and impart religiouninrtruction to the
negro here, than to send Missionaries to
distant places for these purposes. We
denounce it, because the Creator made the
earth for the subsistence of all his crea
tures—Black, White and Yellow, without
establishing a land-office by which one
could monopolize all and starve the others
to death. We denouce it, because by an
act of kindness, in giving to a fellow mortal
a sup of water and a place whereon to lay
his head, by the provisions of this bill, we
would be liable to a criminal prosecution.
We denounce it, because it is a libel on
christiauity and a christian country. Fi
nally, we denounce it as the offspring of an
ice-berg soul, that never glowed in the
radiance of social affection.
The Management of the Public
Work&
We learn that on Saturday an important
Resolution was introduced in the State
Senate, in relation to the management of
our Public Works. It was offered by Mr.
Muhlenberg, Senator from Berks county,
and was unanimously adopted. The Re
solution is oue of inquiry, and calls upon
the proper Department to furnish a dis
tinct statement of the expenses and profits,
if any, on our State improvements—arran
ged according to the several divisions, for
the years embraced between 1844 and the
present time. Mr. Muhlenberg stated, in
support of Isis resolution that his inunedi
ate constituents were by no means satisfied
that our Canals and Railroads were mana
ged with the proper degree of economy—
that the expenses were greater than appear
ed ou the face of the official reports, and
! that it was due to the tax-payers of the
State, that the whole facts connected with
the official management, should be known
to the people, so that, should it appear
' that extravagance was permitted and sane
, tioned, it might be corrected. We regard
this, Coming from the source it does, as a
most important movement.—Phila. Inqui
, rer.
iLP — During the whole of Gov. John-1
ston's administration, no loan was required
to carry on the affairs of our State gov- I
eminent; but, on the contrary, by a wise
and economical administration of his de-1
partment, nearly $700,000 of our State
debt was cancelled. The only loan model
during his term, was one ordered by the
Legislature, to avoid the Inclined Plane,
at Philadelphia. But how quick the scene
changes with a change of managers. No
sooner do the Locofocos take hold of the
reins of government, than a loan of $300,-
000 is required, and the first bill signed
by Cloy. Bigler, is one to borrow this
amount! They will offer any number of
excuses and justifications for doing it; but
if any body is deceived by them, ho must
be one of those who are anxious to be de
ceived. Keep a look-out now and see how
the money fiies.—Lebanon Courier.
Candidate for the Vice Presidency.
The Lebanon Courier, of a late date,
says :—“We this week add to the name of
the old hero of Chippewa and Mexico, that
of James C. Jones, of Tennessee, for Vice
President. Mr. Jones is ono of the strong
est Whigs of the country, strong iu intel
lect and strong iu popularity. In two
campaigns he boat James K. Polk for
Governor of Tennessee, where be is con
sidered unconquerable. His eloquence is
most captivating, his bearing manly, his
patriotism unquestioned, and his devotion
to the glorious principles contended for by
the Whig party abiding and enthusiastic.
Iu short he is a Whig, a man whose name
is every way worthy to be inscribed on the
Whig banner by the side of Scott, in the
campaign which is now soon to be fought.
Let us have Scott and Jones, and success
is certain."

true American, and worthy "the hero of a

A Horrid Death.
It is rumored that a shucking outrage'
was perpetrated in the vicinity of Chester,
Pa., about two weeks 'since, which we be
lieve has not yet been mentioned by the
papers of that region. A poor tailor, who
lived a short distance from Chester, was
found dead by the roadside, early one
morning bearing upon his person the evi
dences of most atrocious barbarities: The
deceased, according to the report, had for
merly been intemperate in his habits; but
having been reformed, was seldom seen
about the taverns of Chester. On the
evening in question, he came into town to
measure a customer for a suit of clothes,
and being met b 1 some of his former boon
companions, they, for a joke, enticed him
into a tavern, where his good resolutions
were soon forgotten; and being liberally
plied with liquor, he was reduced to a
maudling state of intoxication. his perse
cutors, not yet satisfied, shaved the poor
fellow's head, applied Spanish flies and
cowogo, and then taking his hat., in which
they had cut orifices sufficient to see and
breathe through, they pulled it completely
over his face, and let him go, to find his
way home as best he might. As before
stated, he perished during the night, from
the effcts of the treatment he had received,
combined with exposure to the cold
Five young men, said to be of the highest
respectability, are implicated in this trans
action, which if our information is correct,
can scarcely be exceeded for brutality.—
They have been arrestea and held to an
swer for the offence.—PhilaL.Ledger.
Emigrants for California.
The flood of emigration passing through
New Orleans to California has never been
greater than it is at present. These emi
grants are generally of a different charac
ter from those who have preceded them,
and they go to enrich, not to despoil.—
They are principally women and children
—the wives and little boys and girls of
the hardy and vigorous men who, two years
ago, visited the distant shores of the Pa
cific, and who, by enduring peril and toil,
have established new homes for themselves
and families. Of the seventy-eight passen
gers who yesterday sailed for Chagres on
the Philadelphia, fifty-four are women and
children. Thus her sister States repay
California for the gold which she distribu
ted among them and give her, for what is
lent dross in comparison, young hearts and
hands to love and defend her, and gentle
woman to create endearing ass)ciations and
raise altars to peace by every fireside
throughout her broad domains.—New Or
leans Picayune.
A MONSTER.-A drunkard in Dearborn,
la., near Harrison, a short time ago drove
his wife from home in a cold night, as re
ported to us by the Brookville 4Detno °rat.'
She took with her a young child and
started for a neighbor's. After being out
a while he started a little girl, of six years
of age after her soother. The child was
thinly clad and started on her errand.-- !
Reaching a small stream she couldn't
get over it, and turned towards home.—
She had almost reached home in safety,
but in attempting to climb the fence
around the house, a rail slipped from its
place throwing her to the earth and fall
ing across her neck. In this position she
was found by her father the next morning,
dead, and cold as the snowdrifts around
her. Without lifting the rail or removing
the corpse into his house the brute star ted
for an officer to hold an inquest over the
body.
UNION CONVENTION IN ALABAMA.-
A despatch dated at Montgomery, Ala
bama, on the 21st inst., states that the
Union Convention has adjourned, and that
a Union National Convention was recom
mended to convene in Washington in
June next. The Hon. Jeremiah Clemens,
of the United States Senate, (Democrat,)
and E. F. Heiser, Esq., (Whig,) were ap
pointed delegates at large from the State.

occur after 28 years, viz :in 1880. Af
terwards there will he no similar occur
rence for forty years, viz, 1920 ; because
the year 1900 will not be leap year, owing
to the dropping of a day on the completion
of each century.
FROZEN TO DEATIL—James Walker,
aged about 65 years, well known as a
school teacher, in Hartford county, Md.,
was frozen to death on Tuesday the 20th
ult., in the vicinity of Slate Ridge.
SUDDEN DIM APPEARANCE OF CHOLERA.
—lt is stated that the cholera which
has been raging at Mazatlan for some
time, distippeared entirely, immediately af
ter a violent tempest which did much dam
age to houses and shipping.
SUICIDE QF A LADY.—Mrs. Hargill, a
respectable boarding house keeper at Cin-I
committed suicide on Sunday last.
She at first took laudanum and afterwards
inflicted two wounds in her throat with a
pen-knife. She had expressed fears of
coming to want and this idea no doubt in
duced her to commit this deed, although
after her death the sum of $5OO was found
in the house.
FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE Btu TUNNEL.
An accident has occurred at the Big Tun
nel on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
After laboring about three years to pass
through a mountain of rock, working day
and night the hands from each end met on
Friday last. Those on the west eud be
ing nearer to those on the east end than
was expected—only eight feet between
them—a blast was applied, which, when
exploding, produced fearful and fatal con
sequences. From the number at work,
which was eleven, ode man was killed, and
eight seriously, some mottally, wounded.
Two onlyescaped unhurt, and they were
considerably stunned.—They did not know
they were so near together until the explo
sion.
SLAVES LITWItiTED.-It is stated that
a lady of Cincinnati offers about 28 slavei
to be sent to Liberia, by the first vessel
sailing from a Southern port with emi
grants; and that, besides their clothing,
&e., they will receive about $5OO on set
ting sail, as a means of giving them a little
start in their new home.
