The Governor concludes this important.

The tone in which the Gov. ernor speaks of the unworthy abandonment by Pennsylvanians,` at the beck of Power, of doctrines long considered in Pennsylvania as synonymous with her prosperity,is manly and becorriieg. We commend especially' the honorable sentiments expressed in relit , tinn to Slavery,and call the special attention Of the'Evening Poit, to the testimony borne by this Governor; in favor of "the largest liberty" of free discussion."

States. In the House, Mr. Wise (of Virginia) offered a resolution reforing so much of the President's mes sage relating to the condition of the Executive Departments,and the manlier in which they have been conducted, to a select committee with power to send for persons and papers. The National In telligencer says— M r. Was commenced his remarks in sup. port of the above motion, by an.allusion to the fact that this was the last annual mes sage of Andrew Jackson, whose character and course of life, from his earliest youth, he proceeded to trace, and in terms of glow ing commendation, up to the time of his nc• cession to the Presidency. He then noticed the principles upon which Gen. Jackson came into office, as an advocate of retrench ment and economy, , and a scourge to office holders, in consequence of which he was borne along upon the flood tide of populari ty. He professed the most pure and stoical demoCracy, find was bouyed up by the af fections of the people. But he found that ho hail enemies to punish and friends to reward. He was beset with servile tools, who incul. cated upon him the Maxim, ‘.that to the vie tot' belong' the-Spoils." The . proscriptive policy was established and fully Carried out, and the people, ;t was contended, supported and approved it. Mr. Wise then passed to Gen. Jackson's course in regard to the Sen ate; to the destruction of the' independence of Congress by base bribes to its members ; adtmnistereid through Executive appoint. merits' to, office.; to the eXtravagnnce and witsteililness of the public expenditures; to the seizure of the public money, and the u stirp.ition lay the President, of royal prerog atives—in all of which it was claimed that the infinite supported him.

Mr. Alorrig in tropuced a bill to prohibit the aalea of the Public I,ands except to actual settlers, in limited quanti tie'i—reati and ordered to a xccond rea ling. Mr. Ewing's resolutions rescinding the .Treasury or der were taken up and the mover gave his rewetv , at length for offering the resolutions.. He stated that he did not think that the .objects which hail been avowed as those for which theEirculsvitad been issued, were the only or the leading objects. To demonstrate this assertion, he took a view of the condition of thing 4 previous to and during the last session of Congress—and, after showing that, in his opinion,thc Circular was' issued as the result of a 'combination to deco:A the objects' of the tribution Billdni went on to exhibit the e'. it etncts of that 'circularainong which Were to limit the sides of Public Lands and to raise their Prices;aii it had thc4eby operated in favor of fink, Mai who had borrowed Money froth the' Deposita Banks, and also in faVor of • the,Depo'slte Banks theiliSelves. This he had'do'dnubt was One of the Objects contemplated to be 1.40...eted by the order. Another object, said Mr. Ewing, wa g this: . It was known that some of-the Depesitc Banks would not be able to pay over the monies belonging to the public.' It had been said on this finer that the Dis. trilmtion Bill would break many of 'there Bunks. This idea would haVe the effeet of colleeting specie in the,LrMd °tikes; and this could be distributed, among these particular Banks for the purpose of sustaining. them through the process of paying ver the public money to the States. It had been , said, continued Mi. Ewing, that this order would prevent the over-issues of Banks. Ile replied to this that there wore .no over-ifs.mes except by the Deposite Banks,and these would not be effected by this order. These Banks had made great loans to Speculator - giand the effect of the order would be-to accumulate specie to relieve them frdm the etliait of their improvident loans. ire took views in rx tenio of thd eiinditionnf the WeStern Banks which has increased their issucs,of late ycars,as called, for by the increosing.commerco of that part of the country ; but there bad been no over-issues. As soon as this order was issued ; these Banks had closed their doors against all who wished to bor. row,and had been compelled to push their debtors. Thus the whole commerce of the West had been crippled! On these points, Mr. Ewing expatiated at length. Mr. Benton followed, but instead of giving the subject that investigation previously promised, moved,' after attriboting the accumula tion to conduct of the opposition in striking °Oho appropriations so that the money could not be ex pended, that the subject be laid on the table! Mr. Webster, however, considered the subject of great importance—the whole currency had bean disor dered, a novel state of had ariseu, which must have been produced by some novel, cause.— Mr. Webster wished the subject to be,.gone,into as early as possibleamd, on his motion, dm matter . ! was postponed for further consideration until to day. _ _ The House was principally occupied in refer ring to the several committees the various topics of the President's Message On the 15th,after the presentation and reference of petitions, Mr. Robinson,from the Committee on the Post Office and Post Roads, reported . the fol lowing resolution,which was rend and agreed te— ll ' Resolvcd.

Mr. Clayton wished the power to be added, to send for persona and papers. Of papers ho presu med there were not many to be fond; but he tho't it might be necessary to examine persons and such papers as could be found. This was refused! Mr. Clay gave notice that he would today ask leave to introduce a bill to appropriate for n limited term the proceeds of the Public Lauds,and to grant lands to certain States. In the House,a resolution of the same kind ns the one offered by Robinson in the Scnnte,was adopted. Mr. Vises resolution was taken up anddiseussed until a into hour.

It is the ablest and soundest document of the kind over delivered by a Governor of Penn. sylvania. First in order, as in importance, he treats of the . pernicious htfluenee of Secret Stcieties. He sets forth their dangerous tendency and demoralizint; effect with a perspicuity and fearlessness which do equal honor to his talents and his principles. Sur. rounded by rotten . hypocritiCal pretenders to Anti Masenry, - ho defends the principles which brought him into office with an integrity and honor,which lift him high above the mere party politician and and ambitious deningegue. : Ifs views on the snhject of SlaVcry came warm from the heart of nn independent Freeman, think ng and acting for the good ; of the who/c human Whal a rebuke to the timid, time-serving, white slaves who cringe and cower beneath the lash and the frowns of the Southern soul-driver! That guardian of Freedom—that beneficient Herald of happiness and honor to the poor man's children, the Free School System, is treated in a manner worthy of the Stotesulsn i & Philanthropist. The Financhil concerns of the State are placed in the clearest and most flattering point of view. During a single year of the present wise and hon gut administration, has our Treasury been redeem ed front bankruptcy and tilled to overflowing—the people relicva o l from opprcs--ive taxation, and ad- ditional means plaTeed at their disposal to support their noble system of Education.

We then - iiarned nor friends that it was all in tended lip the Whig Mtkons as the death-1 , 16w of •Anti-Masonry—that if they eould rake a Thzxri ,son party and merge every . other' dhitinctiOn in that., the Lodge would receive no further trouhle front the it ands ofbetraved freemen. • followitig distinct declaration' of .their ob ject originated with the Edi , or of the Philadelphia "Unitcd Statespazette," the Deputy Grand High Priest of MaSOnry for Pennsylvania, and is copied with approbation , by all . the Whig and Whiggish Anti-Mastin l ic papers in State:— "Hereafler, then, the may expect that those who have opposed the election of Mr. Von Burenovill await all results, as HAnnt.

This in the Lodge we had a right to expeet.-- But it is grievions to see the prostitution of prin ciple in many of the Anti-Masonie papers, who indirectly sanction it, by practising what is here recommended! Jnother 'Version! cO-Not having been famished with n copy of the proceedings given below, we copy them From the Republican Compiler of Monday last PUBLIC MEETING. In pursuance of the call for that purpose, pnblislied in the various papers of the county, a very large - and respectable meeting of the citizens of Adorns County was hal et the Courthouse in the Borough of Get tysburgh,on Saturday the 3d o( December instant, to take into consideration the propriety rif forming an Anti• Slavery SoCiety,and the other purposes specified in saidcall. On motion of M. C Clarkson, F.sq. the meeting was organized by calling James McAllister, Esq. to the Chair, and by the appointment oftfloberl Young 4.• Al. C. Clarkson as Vice Presidents, and Hezekian Thntglitelin,Jr. and P. Jr' Se cretaries. The object of the meeting was stated by the Rev. William M: Reynolds; who moved that the meeting proceed teleran air Anti-Slavery Society— in which the Rev. Richard Rend, after an effectual call for a statement of the principles upon which the in tended society was to be organized, offered the fol lowing Preamble and Reiolutions as a substitute:— . Whereas,hv the Constitution of the U Slates, Sla very, under the taws and regulations of the several States,is tolerated and permitted) and whereasonuch excitement has been produced by the doctrines or certain societies and associatlons.nnd the means used in promulgating said doctrines.and which means have only served to irritate the master,without,in any de gree,amelieratitig the condition of the Slave— Therefore, Resolved, That, while we view Slavery as nn evil of grearmagnitude, and while we claim the right to speak on this and all other subjects, with the utmost fearlessness & freedom,& wish that none,elther white or black.remained in bonds—yet we deem it inexpe dient arid improper,in any way,to interfere with what is purely the domestic concern of the slave-holding States of the Union,and which must ho remedied, If remedied at all,hy their act and volition. Resolved, That Congress have the; Power to legis late for the District of Columbia—and that having the power,it is proper that they should use it for theabo filler' of slavery i n said Di s t r i ct . Resolved, That it is right, in the erection of new States as Member; of this Union,that Congress should prohibit the introduction of Slavery into them, and that it is the opinion of this meeting that it should be su prohibited. • After a very full and protracted discussion of the merits of the original- resolution and amendment, in which a number of gentlemen participated, the ques• tion was finally taken about 5 o'clock,and resulted in the adoption of the amendment by an overwhelming majority. The meeting being then about to proceed to the e lection of delegates to the intended Anti-Slavery Con vention at Ilarrisburgh, the Chairman and first Vice President vacated their seats, and declined taking a ny further part in the.proeredings—and,together with a portion of those who dissented, seceded from the meeting—(Mr. Middleton, one of the Setieetaries, having previously withdrawn)—Mr. Clarkson there upon nso resigned his seat, but continued to partici pate in the subsequent proceedings of the meeting. The meeting then unanimously elected James Coop er,Esq to fill the Chair vacated by the President. Whereupon, on motion, Resolved, That Messrs. John R. McPherson, Wm, W. Paxt.ut,Esq. Geo. Ziegler.

The crossing of the Cove of the Withla. coocheo, as described by Captain, Thruston was one of the most intensely interesting details 1 ever listened to. Prominent him• self in the pursuit and in the battle, the Cap tam's knowledge tit:the subject was,olcourse, valuable Tod imptirtant. The most preju• diced could not have heard the Captain's recital without a feeling.of indignation at the prime movers in this business. The publi cation:46e proceedings, at the completion of the trial; will show conclusively, that the failure ofour arms in the Indian country was attributable to individuals higher in authority than Gen. Scott, and that other than a pro- per mzlitriry spirit has brought the gallant mid honored Chieftain tonecouni for alleged official delinquencies. It was an interesting, but tnelancholy picture ,to behold a man, whose youth rind manhood were devoted to his coontrv„ Red - whose name is associated with the proudest achievements in pitched . fields, againstihe•best. European soldiery, in the autumn of his existence, made the victim of political intrigue. None better than the War Department knew the. reasons of the failure in Florida. They will be known to the community ere long. After the hearing of Capt. Thruston, the Court, to give time for the arrival of Col Elankhend s . another important witness, ad journed to Mor day the 12th inst. at 10 o'- clock,.on the afternoon of which' you shall hear from me. • • From the same—llatO, FREDERICK, December 12th. The Court of Inquiry was occupied the greater part of this morning in hearing the testimony of Mr. DEPEveTen, a. volunteer aid to General Eums,- whose official rela tions gave him extensive opportunities of judging of the eircumstaneec which embar rassed the oriel-winos in Florida. His evi- dence accords with that given by General SANDFORD (or the Georgia troops) Col. LINDSAY, Major GRAHAM, Captain GREEN and or hers,and goes to show that Gen. SCOTT was pairing in his efforts, and judicious in hti plans to terminate the, war; and that the wadi or §iihsistvrice, stores ani clothing a mon the troops, was the primary cause of our failures in the Seminole entintrv. Gen. Sewnr filled up the intervals elthe testimony by remarks to the Court-on the importance ofevidence expected from witnesses now ab sent, and enumerated Gen. CLINCH, Colonel RA:sort:An, Capt. DRANE, Lt. G. lloants, Lt. Meen kno, and others, as invaluable to him. "1 shall" said he, "Mr. Presidentoit question to Mr. Mortals, the en , wer to which l'enticipate, mid which answer I shell apply' to tremendous effect." The General seems much excited, end occesionelly gives vent to very shnrp expression'. •In refer ence to the letter addresseAl to the President, by the FlOll. JOS. M. WHITE, of Florida, in which 'General slioken of harshly, the letter, n few (lays ego, indulf , e(l in very slur• tied see the honorable gen. Tema .. letrulral Mr. President, andee'itither cirearn• stances and retort upon him, Sir, in other `tetras." To day he observed, "I Shall avail myself:of my right, and With at all points the information necessary to elucidate my relation to my country. • If the Court think priper, I would suggest the reading of the documentary evidence in the matter of the eßftrat WAR. Let the imouootioos cast upon me, for my conduct in that nation, be NOW taken lip, and by the time we are thro' ; the preliminarie-, the witnesses, for whom i we are now waiting, will certainly have at , n vf7(l." To discugs this proposition, the I ,Cotirt was cleared, and n'terwards ailjottrited to :0 o'clock to morrow. • , From the same—littetl, FRP;DEItICK. December 12th, The,Court this morniug ass , mted to the nroposition of f;en. Scott, as proposed by him yesterday, and directed the Judge Ad vocate to commence the rending of the ofli Cttll dricUrnents pet-Minium to the CR ErK WAR.. The first paper introducedimiettee. was the original communiention transmitted to Mr. Editor Blair, (lithe Glebe4),Oin.i"!. Gen. Jessup. In this letter, vett inliv,re member, the military charneter. or Geli Scott; is most mercilessly caovrissecl.: th e se lf eAr.'rm of the writer strikitiglik ifrsl trayed. AS Rana as t h e itarga had concluded its perusal, • General: Scritt: eVidentli'.'inuch irritated, obeggetl leas:e remark, that the letter just read,was finnifii? to. the Clitirt and the coinitr:yTlint, to say nothing just IP IW of its atither,. had.it l. been mast imptulriilli* published, rind Phat he had been made the subject of illnatored vr4sion in inniA , parts of the tinier,; that to all this 11^ had inanifeuted nn indifTrrence, .I.eraitse of his regard for the rim!e.iofservice, acid his own.self-,respect; that lie had never published, or cansecl to he ,p.iiblished, nor was he awe rri of his frierafs'having ed, any ai fiche commendatory of . his own course threugh the wars in queStion, or in any degree reflecting on the conduct or character of others. But, Mr . Presitlent," (ht; ' suspend the' operation of your . rnilitary, biws 'for awhile,' and. I shall ask froni rah tribunal satitilakiett Fur my wrongs; not from the governrrietit, ; sir, or from tbis court, or, from any power under heaven, will demand retribution, 111 may be permitted to resort to thnse 'powers, with which the - Loyd of the universe has:endow ed ine. In this. geed right artn,.(he con cluded,) will thud redress for nlliny wrongs." During the reading of the succeeding pa pers, the•G'eneral frequently rose;'and by well-timed explanations, elucidated obscure pzv;sages of the documents, and reconciled conflicting statements. These manus-ripts Constitute the correspondence which Gen. .Scorr conducted with the War Department, and its MultitialineuS subordinates. Gen. JoSsup is, in my humble opinion, in a very unenviable pbsition. "The plans of aeneralScott" snys'he in his letter to his friend BLATR, "are very, very finally; his campligning on paper, my dear sir. looks magnificently well, but, d.te. • "In n short time, .1: shall make an impression." In this style, dons the Quarter-Master•General lec ture to his trustworthy* friend, who forth with presents the epistle to the public and sets the commander-in•chief by, the eiirs.— Jessup wits shockinglyindiscreet in writing Such a letter, and Blair 'lamentably unfortu nate in publishing it; both better betake themselves to the monastery nfLA TnAren. than encooeter that, which the object cif their malevolence has in store for them.— NOthing short of avowed, unmixed and une quivocal repentance will screen - them trorn well merited punishment, and in the expedi ency of its rigid application,the whole Union will concur. Gen. JEssor felt himself (what in truth he is,) a pet..9t"the administration; and pos. sesstng . sornelatent military-talentiwas amt• ions to dev.el4e it; and hearing that thu cam paign,"eundueted by Gen. Scour, progressed rather tardily, deputed himself the General's successorflud promised BLAIR Ole perfor manee of wonders. What ho did achieve is history; what ho did not, will-be officially inquired in duo sen.ion. Every one here .who has heard' the testimony, including the members of the Court end its President, ap pear to consider Scow a very mach abused officer. I use the word appear, because an expresszon of opinion in such 'matters i 3 unnulitary, and in certain circles, politically injudicious. His acquittal, however, is a matter of course, and is conceded on all hands. The whole of the morning has been devo ted to the reading of the Creek papers, and nearly half of them yet remain untouched. Gen. GAINES has just transmitted his rea sons for delaying his appearance here; I do not know, of course, what their purport is, but will] you, might surmise, dotriestic af fliction, &c. The Carlisle "HERALD " eVablishment having been purchased by mr:GE,RGE M. Putuars, the publisher of the "Expostrou," the two papers have become amalgamated, and the new paper, much enlarged and im• proved is published under the title of "The Carlisle Herald and Expositor." Further improvements are also promised, as soon ne the necessary materials can be obtained for the purpose. Tnr SOIL OF THXV3.—On this subject, the Texas Telegraph has the following para graph: "The capability of our soil to produce cot ton and sugar is not overrated by the com mittee.
