THE romrre VEro-7he Huntingdon Breach.—The Governor has again vetoed the resolution for the settlement of the ac• counts of the disbursing officers on the Hun tingdon breach.

We recommend the Legislature hereafter to get the Governor to make a draft of such bills as he can sign, and to attempt to pass none unless it shall first have met his approbation. Seriously, there are no reasons given f)r withholding his'signature worth a moment's considers. ttou.—Harriaburg Chron.

Porter, the present Loco Foco incum bent. We clo not believe a more reckless. ruinous ordemoralizing State Administra tion haS been endured in any. State of the Union than that of D. R. Porter has been. We believe its glaring profligacy in the prosecution and' repair, of the State Works has added at least One Million Dollars to the Public Debt for which the .State has re ceived no equivalent. Too cunning to be a thorough Destructive, Porter has pursued a see-Saw course in regard to State policy and the ranker articles of the Loco•Foco creed, while he has proved himself a thor• ough' pupil of Dallas and Kendall in his ad. ministration' of the laws. He has vetoed the most important an just bills passed by the Legislature, even when composed ofhis political supporters; he has prostituted the power of appointment 'to the worst extent, in aggrandizing his relatives, and personal faveri!es, even with judicial stations fin which they were most unfit; lie has beggar ed the'State; and he has filled up the mea sure of his iniquities by pardoning a Loco- Foco libeler of many respectable Whigs be fore trial, so as to shield him from convic Lion as well as punishment?

The distardly Kansas, 65 in numbor took advantage of the absence of the Paw no warriors from their encampment, and massacred all but 11 ot the woman and children found in it. One woman sold her life dearly. She sprang upon one of the Kansa9 warriors like a tigress—clutched his throat, and would have strangled him if her urms'had not be'en hewn from her body. The Pawnee prisoners were reached by a detachment of the American force sta tioned at Port Leavenworth, and had been brought into Bellevieu. This massacre will be a signal for a fierce war between the Pawnees and Kinsas. "'".". 0 IlMwor.

Pennsylvania Stands Firm. We are pained to announce the 'm,tilan. From the accounts vaich reach us daily from choly intelligence of the DE'ATI - I OF the various parts of the State, we feel authorized PRESIDENT HARRISON / to say to our friends abroad, that Pennsylvania is following is an extract of a letter, written an Administration State, and will prove it at the b y a member ofthe Legislature to a citizeni approaching election, as she did at the last. Mo ved by a strange infidelity, as we thought, to the of this place, dated ,• I Office. honor and interests of the State, certain of our co temporaries, whose aid, from their professions, we had'a - right to expect, were constanrly asserting that no Candidate could' carry the State against Van Buren. We denounced ouch treasonabfe a tinnpts to dispirit our own friebdir, but we find we were over hasty in imputing such motives;—as since the election, none have evinced warmer at tachment to the present Chief Magistrate, or claimed greater credit for their services, than those of our brethren who were given over to such criill ing despondency before it. We have only referred to this subject to strength en the opinion we have intimated, that,Pennsyl vania will go for JOHN BANKS: We adhered to the opinion from the beginning of the late can vass, that Gen. Harrison would carry the State, even at the hazard' of differing with , our more in telligent brethren. We wore right' Ahen: and when those, naturally given to despondency agree with ue in anticipating success, we have surely foundation for supposing we are right now. Lady's Book The April number of this admirable publication has been received. The 4413 tray Kitten" and an excellent plate of the latest Fashions embellish this number. The reading matter is good—very good—as is generally the case. ,We are glad to perceive that this work is daily, growing iu popu larity. Pew publishers are more deserving of pa tronage and support than is Godey of the Lady's Book; and certainly, none are entitled to more credit for constant ant' untiring exertions to please. Why is it, friend Godey, that we have not yet teceiveti the February and March _numbers of the Book? We cheerfully complied with yoer re quest and performed our part of thoi contract in December last, and of course, we now expect you to do the same.

Truly, we live in en ago of Vetoes and Previous Pardons! One Term Principle. On Friday last, the House passed, by a very do• cided vote, the senate resolution for restricting the Governo!'s tenure of office to orix TEAM. By the 10th article of the amended constitution, says the Harrisburg TelegraPh, this resolution will be journalised, and published by order of the Secre tary of the Commonwealth in one paper in every county: if the next Legislature shall in like man neritgree to the amendment, the Secretary will again order its publications as before, and it will then be submitted to' the vote of the people.

He died evincing' the faith, resignation and composure of the Chris. flan; invoking blessings on his country with his latest breath. The news reached us this evening direct from Washington, and was . communicated in a circular signed by the members of the Cabin et.• I presume you will have received the mourn ful intelligence also ere the 'arrival of this letter. We are all struck dumb with grief. My feelings will not permit me to add more. Peace to his ashes: lie ham not loft an honester or bettor man behind,hire, and history will record no brighter name on her consecrated pages. He died in the fulness of his fame, with the rich regards of 'his grateful countrymen clustering around him, and his memory will be consecrated in their hearts so ong as those hearts shall continue to beat.

Correspondence of the Gettysburg Star and Banner ! - I'Arkursatioo, April 1, 1941. ' foint resolution was offered Ibis morning by Mr. Brodhead of Northamptom, sus pending the operation of the provisions of the license law passed some time since, until the lit day of December next. The rule which requires joint reaoluttorls to lie one day on the table was dispensed with and the resolution passed, yeas 61, nays 12. The suspension of the operation of the act was considered necessary, in consequence of the diffi culty arising from the fact, that most of the licenses are granted at the April court, and the time being necessarily too shut to obtain licenses agreeably to the provisions of the bill. The remainder of the day was occupied in pas sing a bill divorcing .Harriet Millspaugh from her husband G. L. Millepaugh. HARRISBURG, April 2, 1841 Dear. Sir:—The bill to establiah a uniform mode for the valuation of propety and assessment of taxes levied for state purpose; passed the House finally, yeas 54, nays 27. This bill does not in crease the amount of taxation contemplated by the act of June last, but will have a tendency more effectually to carry out the provisions of that act, by equalizing the taxes throughout the Common- wealth. Under the . act ofJune last, owing to the various standards of value adopted in the several counties, the tax is any thing but uniform ac cording to the real value. The bill just passed requires'the assessment of property at the actual cash value; and thus obviates to a great extent ttia'defeat 'tir abuses of the act of June last. In the counts' of Adams where a fair valuation was made, the tax exceeded greatly that of some Of the counties, the lax of which aught at least to be double that of Adams. • The House proceeded to the consideration of the resolution from the Senate relative to amend ing the constitution so that the governor shall hold his office during three years from the third Tuesday of January next ensuing his election, and shall not be capable of holding it longer thah a single term of three years in any term of nine years. An amendment extending the term to four years waS disagreed to. An amendment - was offered by Mr. Wright reducing the term to two years, lost, yeas 11, nays 68. An amendmeht was then of feted by Mr. Wright to reduce the term of Sena tors to two years and making them ineligible for eight years, yeas 8, nays 71. • An amendment was then offered by Mr. Wil kiusbn changing the time or the meeting of the legislature ,to .the third Tuesday 'of. November. Mr..Lualt moved to .mend the amendment by striking' out the third Tuesday of November and inserting the first Tuesday of December, which war - disagreed to, and the amendment of Mr. Wilkinson was disagreed to yeas lb, nays 63. The resolution restricting the governor to one torm•tvas then agreed to, yetis 73, nays 8. • We have just.bad 'mother of those beautiful specimens of Porter democracy, a veto from his: excellency returning ,wit h out bip signature the. bill changing the prison discipline of Chester' county and the mode of appointing the Inspectors of the prison.

Mr. V. was reci ting a scene in Byron's "Cabl,""iind pie. .luring the frightful remorse df ihe murder er when the dreadful truth of Abel's death flushed upon his mind, and in an agony of soul he , summoned around his father, moth• or, and wife, and with the thrilling excla' mation—"Father! Mother! Ada! Zillah! come hitherl—Death is in the world!"— This passage was given with an energy of truth so feiirful as to Send. a thrill of horror. to the very soul; and one young man, who . had been gazing intently, and kindling to a pitch of uncontrollable excitement, at the' last clause—" Death is in the world!"—was' uttered, fell senseless to 'the floor! A CANDID OPPONENT.—The Erie Ob aerver, a Van Buren and Porter paper all uding to the notninatiou of Honest JOHN BANKS by the nemacratic Convention sayv: We are well acquainted with him and know him to be a GOOD CITIZEN AND A MAN OF TALENTS." Just such a man is wanted now for Gov ernor. Your's &e. THE MeLzon CASE. —The Albany Eve ning Journal, in reply to some' remarks of the Albany Argus, holds this language:— "The ComajAution and Laws of this State, and of the,United States, will be obeyed and executed, in relation as well to McLeod, as in regard to the outrage upon the steamboat Caroline. So far as this State is concerned, while on the one hand, McLeod will have the benefit of all the rights and guarantees secured to persons charged with offences a gainst those laws, on the other, the admin istration ofjustice can neither be obstructed nor overawed by the demands or - menaces of the British Government.' McLeod will have a fair, impartial trial. If innocent; he will assuredly be acquitted. If guilty, he will be as assuredly convicted; unless the Government of England, by avowing the act, converts the individual otTenee into a. national aggression. In such an event; it may become the duty of the General Gov ernment to vindicate the honor of the cowl try. W hen American citizens went for un lawful purposes into Canada, that Govern• went hung many, and transported many more of them. At this our Government made no complaint. And now, when the subjects of Great Britain invaded our terra. tory, burned a steamboat and Murdered a citizen, eur course is a plain one; Whateier views may be entertained or Out forth by Her Majesty's Government:' We 'hazard nothing, however, in saying; that while the National and State Governments will make every exertion that .duty, interest and in clination suggests, to preserve the. relations of amity which we hope may long exist be tween England and America, the •adminis• , (ration ofneithor will compromise the 'noir dupois of a hair,' of the nation's honor or dignity." - MOST MELANCIOLir INTELLIGENCE PEiv94coL4., March 13.
