We observe that SAMUEL GALLOWAY, Esq. for merly of Gettysburg, was re-elected Secretary of State. 'The Whigs of York county, on Tuesday evening last, appointed delegates to the State Con vention. We have not le&rned the names, but un derstand that they go igstructed for Mr. Cooper. grThc Reading Journal announces, as the lasi curiosity for "that museum," a correct list of the Locofoco orators and editors that have marched to the scat of war to practice what they preach r • (Erwe -have no disposition to bandy words with our friend ofthe Compiler. Such controver sies we believe to be. as repugnant to the wisheS of our readers as our own. We were charged with "gross unfairness" in condensing the Preei• dent's message into a readable size, and with "mis leading" our readers by giving them a "sketch partaking of our prejudices," rather than repro- senting the views of the message. Now, either this'charge is true, or it is not true. If true, the Conviler cart tcrtainly point out the particular in which the misrepresentation has occurred, or the statement that may have been suppressed., To this task our neighbor has been challenged, and we now repeat it with the assurance that as soon .as he establish the point, the correction shall be cheerfully made. Until this be done we leave the matter. As to - the twaddle about "federalism" and "op position to the war of 1812," which characterises the discussion of national politics by the entire lo cofoco press, from the mouth-piece of the Presi dent down to the obscurest village "eight-by-ten," it reminds us much of the, determination of the school-boy to "make mouths" at the sister of the lad whom he could not flog. It does seem as if our opponents designed to makeup for lack of ar gument by calling hard names. We apprehend, however,. that the time for such things has passed by, and that it is placing a poor count upon the intelligence and honesty of the American people, "'at this day, to suppose that after the political ex perience of the past eighteen years, a sounding of the shibboleth of party will hereafter suffice to crush all efforts at independent thought, or that our citizens will permit themselves to be blinded , by false issues or be led astray by the mere enun ciation of caballisti.e words. For ourselves we beg leave to assure our neighbor that his frequent allusions to old arid fancied unpopular party des ignations, fall far short of their purpose, and that thus far, at least, we are willing to concede what be evidently does, riot believe, that "a rose by any other name may smell as sweet." And if by "fed eralism" reference is had to that Olden school, of which Gonne Wasnisiarosi was the first and glorious representatiVe, with all our heart do we . acknowledge the association, quite willing that • ..11.2icofocoism should enjoy the doubttil glory of that other, school, equally well representated in the person of their acknowledged champion in the National -11ouse of Representatives. the Chairman of the Coinmittee on Ways and Means, who, not one year ago, on the floor of Congress and in the . face Of 01cl:union, unblushingly plead guilty to theinfamous avowal that "had he lived in the days of the Revolution, he womid hare been a TORT I" If, on the other hand, reference is had to the 'to" of 1812, which developed itself in 4 'lity to the War, we leave that those who un ceisingly ihotit hosannas to the glory of Jamas ,-I!ottaisaa--;.the 'bosom friend and confidential adviser of the'P'resident, and candidate of the Lo eofoo party of Pennsylvania for President—who, in 'COMMIX' with the federalists of 1812, bitterly tlenounced the War and *characterised Mr. MADI -4TON4ll"the degenerate successor of Washington."

On the o.lst of December, Mr. Wxtnnu, of the Treasury Department, fearing that Congress would not endorse the recommendations of him4elf and the President for a tax on Tea and Cutree, addres sed a note to Mr. chairman of the Com mitttee of Ways and Means in the House, in which he says : "Permit ::•.c moat respectfully to call your attention to the views submitted in my last annual report in regard to impo sing duties on tea and entree. These du ties were suggested in view of the neces sity of obtaining the. loan theruiti proposed, and this Department feels bound to com municate the opinion entertained by it, that in the absence of these duties; it will probably be wittily impracticable to nego tiate the loan on such terms as would be peernitted by Congress." The House,•however, .is dritermined nut to' be whippedir•.to a support of . this project of a "dem • trratic" Administration, and so expressed its will by the adoption of a Resolution on Saturday last, declaring it "inexpepient to levy a duty on tea and c0.1e." The resolution was adopted by a vote of 115 to IS ! Every Whig presort voted in favor of the resolution. The 48 members, who voted r.gainst the resolution, arid in rAvon or• Tr.• ♦to Coreec, ARE ALL LOCOFO - ! Mr. M'Clean was not in his seat when the vote was taken. Referring to this vote, the Washington corres pondent of the North American says Thus after the direct and roost urgent appeal of the offi cers charged with the financial affairs of the Gov ernment—after the supplication of the organ behalf of the Executive and the Administration, the popular branch of Congress, by a vote of more than two to one, has refused to pass a measure without which the Secretary or the Treasury in forms the Committee it was "wholy Impracticable" to negotiate a loan for conducting the war. With a majority of sixty in the House, the Administra tion has not been rble to carry its most cherish ed measure. Here is au explicit and unquestion able vote of 'a want of confidence by their own party—a vote which in England, monarchical as she is, would consign a ministry to oblivion, and a vote which would induce any honorable Secre tary to throw up his seals. Ent )Tr. Walker has no perception of propriety. Ile lives for office and its emoluments alone, and Congress can inflict no indignity-that he will appreciate, but that of ta king away his pay. We are beginning to realize the beauties of Polkistn and. the end is not yet." criThe Washington Union is much displeased with the vote of the House of Repieseritatives de claring it inexpedient to lay duties on tea and cof fee, and endeavors to whip in the refractory , mem bers of the party. - We will see with what suceesS. The Administration is getting into a bad fix.' The votes in the House on two of its most important measures, have proved a want of confidence. in the Cabinet, which in any Government in Europe would compel a resignation of Ministry. The whole difficulty could be remedied by the passage of an Act of five lines, declaring a repeal of the Suhtreaeory and n. Ironton:dim of the Tariff of '42. But the Administration is obstinate and seems dis posed to practice the principle of "rule or ." Increase of the Army—Lieuten- ant General. On Monday last the President transmitted to Congress a message recommending an increase of the Regular Army, by the addition of ten regiments of regular troops, and also urging the establish ment of a new military office, in the "appuinttnent of a General Officer (Lieutenant General) to take command of all our military forces in the field." It is generally understood that Mr. Batierna is to be appointed to the new office, if Congress accede to a proposition of the President, and that he will enter the field with a commission that will out rank Generals Scott, Taylor, Worth, and all the officers of the regular army, who have grown gray in the military service of their country. We can scarcely bring ourselves to believe that the nation al legifdature will countenance this blindest of all the Presidents blind movements in furtherance of what he believes to be the interests of his party ; but if it should, we venture the prediction that within one month after the intelligence shall have reached the Rio Grande, there will remain scarce ly a fragment of the army that is now command : ing the admiration of the world by its displays of gallant heroism. It needs no particular gift of di vination to, the course of Generals Scott and Taylor, and their companions in arms, in the event of the adoption of the President's project.' The Project Killed. As we anticipated, the project of Mr. Polk for the creation of a Lieutena i nt General, to out-rank Scott and Taylor, has proven too bitter a pill to be swallowed by Congress. We did not expect, however, that the condemation of the project would be so speedy or so decisive. In the. Home of Representatives, on Tuesday, Mr. Harrelson, from the Military Committee, to whom wns re ferred the message of the President in regard to the appointment of a Lieutenant General, had the unanimous consent of the House to make a report asking to be discharged from a further considera tion of the project, by which it was laid upon:the ta ble without a dissenting voice! Will the signifi cant lesson thus furnished the President by his own political friends be heeded ? -LA TER.—The summary action of the House on the President's Lieutenant General project, seems to have been regarded too strong and want ing in proper courtesy to the Executive. A mo tion was accordingly, ,made on the following d'ay' for a reconsideration of the action of the House laying the project on the tale, which prevailed by a vote of 86.14084.„Tireiluestion recurring on the motion to lay on the table, the vote stood 92 to 97. The project was then referred back to the Military Committee, where it wilt be permttted to sleep. It is said that there is also a majority in . the pen ate against the proposition. r 0:) ;The House of Representatives has been dis cussing, for some days, a Bill for an increase of the Regular Anny by the' addition of ten new Regi ments. 11:77hO Paper Mill, at Papertown, Cutnberland county, in the oecripaney of Win.

Pomeroy and Knox . , and there returned !rig acknowledgment to the Iles se in the following ehNtent and appropriate addresA : GENTLEMEN: Itt assuming the duties of the station to which I have been cleveted by your partial kindness, I feel that my first obligation is to express to you my grateful acknowledgements for so diAin-'1 goished a mark of confidence, and to give utterance, as far as I can, to the feelings of profound sensibility with which it is re ceived. lie assured, gentlemen, that I ap-: preciate it as it becomes me; and that the, impression of gratitude it has made upon! my heart will never be efraced.• To be se lected to preside over the deliberations Of ; a body like this, is au honor of which any aunt may be proud, whilst the arduous and responsible duties it imposes might inspire, a feeling of diffidence in one more highly ! qualified for their discharge than I pretend to be. The regard and confidence, howe ver, expressed in your spontaneous and unsolicited choice, encourages me to hope for your earliest and zealous co-operation and aid in the proper administration of the ! duties of the chair, as well as for a liberal and generous indulgence- for any errors I may commit, or deficiencies I may. manifest. I shall doutless often have occasion to in yoke such indulgence ; but, gentlemen, I trust I need not assure you that the former will ever be unintentional, wltilst niv ef forts shall be .entirely devoted to obviate and remove the latter. Economy in public affairs is always a virtue in public servants. Stic't a conve- ; nient economy oliime as is consistent with' due inquiry, proper deliberation, and wise resolve, is no less a virtue than frugality in the management and disbursement of: the public money. In the present condi-! tion of the Commonwealth, our constitu ents have an especial right to expect both at our hands. A short session of the Leg islature they expect and require of us; IFy addressing ourselves earnestly and in g6od faith to the public and important business I of the session from the outset, this, reason- I able expectation of theirs can be realized, and a great saving in the public expenitures secured. Let us, gentlemen, difiliTiTlind the approbation of our constituents will re spond to the tones of self-approval Which onr own consciences will utter. Let us, too, in our appropriate sphere,l co-operate cordially and harmoniously with the other departments of the govern ment, in every measure looking to the' good of the State, and the maintenance of the public faith and credit. No factious feelings, I venture to say, will influence our deliberation or actions. Our first duty is to our country. We can owe none to party in contradiction of, (win opposition to hers. My short intercourse with you since we have assembled lucre, has assured me that these sentiments will find a proper response in your actions ; and I trust that the assurance of my earnest and hearty co operation in this respect, is entirely unne cessary. The action of the General Government, as bearing on the interests of Pennsylva ,nia, may impose on her representatives assembled here, the duty of indicating those interests, by asking for them such a measure of protection as will secure' them against Tuitions foreign competition.— Should any expression on the part of this body be deemed expedient it will be titter ed in a tone worthy of Pennsylvania, in a tone at once respectful and firm, resolved and forbearing. Such will best become. her own dignity, and the magnitude of - the interests involved. In conclusion, permit me, gentlemen, to renew the expression of my gratitude for the evidence of your confidence and es teem, and to pledge to you my best efforts in bringing our joint labors to a speedy and salutary termination. kr. Enii, of Somerset, introduced a series of Resolutions instructing our Senators and Represen- tatives in Congress to direct their efforts to a repeal of the Tariff of 1842.

Bigler and Carson, he addressed the Senate in brief but appropriate acknowledg ment of the honor conferred on him. After the appointment of the usual Committees to wait on the Governor, and the transaction of some unimportant business, both Houses adjourned Nothing of importance was done in either house On Wednesday,. excepting the reading of the mes sage and a nomination of officers. In the HPUSE, Mr. KLINE introduced a Rego; lotion providing for an adjournment of the Legisla= turn ontho sth of February next. . Mr. PioLETT, of Bradford, announced the dczalt of Mr. Wean, a member elect from that county, ivhereupon, after adopting the customary resolu tions, the House adjourned. ' In the SENATE, Mr. Ross proposed an amend ment to the Constitution providing that the Gov ernor shall not be capable of holding the executive office longer than three in any term of six years. The Resolutions of the House in regard to the death of Mr. Wxna having been laid before the Senate, the usual resolutions of condolence, &c. were 'adopted, and the Senate adjourned. - In - On Friday last tlr remains of the gallant - Lieut.

Ile recommends, also, that ap plication he made to Congress to increase the compensation of the volunteers. Ile also recom mends that Adjutant General Bowman, and his Assistant, be compensated far c::trn services. The State debt, according to his exhibi tion, i 3 $40,789,577, being less by $19;13, 816 than it was a year ago. The taxes .and other revenues o!' the State have been. during the year less than the demands up-. on the Treasury during the same period by 8114,199. The estimates for the pre sent year makes the receipts exceed the Elie expenditures $194,411. The balance in the treasury on the Ist inst. was $438, 986. In this condition of the finances, ho calls upon the Legislature to do something to meet the accruing interest due Ist of February. The exhibit for the future is more gratifying. The $200,000 annual ly appropriated. to the cancellation of the relief-issues is discharging that amount of public debt yearly. The taxes and the public works pay the interest on the pub lic debt and all demands upon the Treas.l ury. Ile estimates the annual increase of tolls from the public works at $100,000,' which, added to the existing fund of $`200, 1 000 for the cancellation of relief-issues, I will take them all out of circulation in a-1 bout three years, at which time the State. , will have a sinking fund of half a million of dollars to continence liquidating the funded debt. The application of this fund annually with its accruing interest to the i purchaser of five per cent. State stock i will, at the end of ten years, discharge $O, 288 229 of the debt,..which will reduce the debt. in twenty years to $23,175,032 The net income from the public works will then be more than ample to pay the nacres tof the State debt. lie recommends an amendment to the constitution of the State by which the income front the pub lic improvements, and the revenues ! from the State Tax shall be set a-1 part and pledged to the payment of the , interest of the State debt and the liquida tion of the principal. Ile also recommends an examination of! operation of the tax law to make it bear I more equally upon the citizens. • Ile roitorutes his views upon the s u b. l ject of the 'Tariff, affirming the right of Congress to discriminate in favor of pro tection in the imposition of duties, but in such a way as to render it doubtful wheth er he is for or against the Tariff of 1846. The system of individual liability of stokholders in ,, Banks is approved. The message alsorecommends memorializing Congress for the improvement of the nav igation of the Ohio—lauds the proceedings of the Canal Board during the past three years—suggests further legislation in re gard to a Geological survey—deprecates unnecessary legisation upon private bills —protests against the rapid increase of "divorce" bills—and concludes with a eu logy of the system of Public Education. Nominat ions. Both Branches of the legislature were to have elected their officers on Thursday. The following nominations had been agreed upon in caucus by the Whigs on Tuesday and would be sus• tained in both Houses. We understand that our friends, Messrs. Picking and Hanunersly of this county, withdrew their applications in view of the election of Mr. Cooper as speaker, and the large number of candidates, so that their names did not appear in caucus.

Pittsburg Elections. Ey means of the magnetic Telegraph the Phila delphia papers every morning contain the news from Pittsburg up to 9 o'clock of the previous evening ! On. Tuesday, the annual Corpora tion Election took place in the latter city, and resulted in a signal Whig triumph, the Whig can didate for Mayor being elected by a majority of 600 !, Last year, we believe, the Locofocos carried the city. At the same time a vote was taken upori the "Li cense Question," undenithe,late Act of Assembly, which multed in an Anti-License majority of 1200—the Anti-License men. carrying every ward in the city !

He had seized 2000 barrels of Flour anti several thousand bushels of wheat on its way to, the Mexican army. Gen. Worth's command at Saltillo, numbered 1700 men. Gen. Butler was in possession of Monterey, with 2000 men. Tampi• co was held by Gen. Patterson. A msenger in the schooner Johnson, at New Orleans, titates that on the 16th ult. Tampico, had been attacked by 7000 Mexican cavalry, who had hoped to carry the place by a coup de main. A brisk fire from our artiliery, however, caused them to retire immediately. • A further correspondence between General Tay lor and Santa Anna is published. Cen. Taylor's letter concludes with a hope that the Mexican Congress will accept the offer of the United States, and enter on negotiations for the ter mination of hostilities, and the establishment of a permanent peace. Santa Anna replies from San Luis in a courteous manner, and in conclusion says, that he hopes the National Congress shall act as will be most condu cive to the interest of the republic, but that ho be- Heves neither Congress nor any Mexican will over be able to listen to any overtures of pence, unless the National territory shall first he evacuated by the forces of the United States, and the hostile at.. titude of the vessels of war in front of their ports be withdrawn. Until this takes place, the Nation is determined to defend at every hazard its territory, inch by inch.

SCOTT and Stair were to leave Ncw Or- leans for Tampico on the 23d ult. Speaking of the presence of Gen. :,7cott and Mr. Clay in that city, the Delta say.: " , The Crescent City is now honored with the presence of ttto A mericen citi zens, who, in a dark and eventful period of ►ho history of the country—the war of 1812-J5, with the mightiest• nation on earth —pet l formed their respective parts in the groat dra►na of that epoch. The eloquent voice of Henry Clay was heard in trump et tones in Congress in advocacy of the war policy of President Madison: and at Chippeway and Lundy's Lane, Winfield Scott unsheathed his sword, and won iut perisl►ahie renown, in gallantly and suc cessfully combating the flower of the Brit. ish army." Iri - Through the mediation of mutual friends, the difficulty betwen Messrs. Davis and Bayley has been settled. All the hostile correspondence having been withdrawn, a mutual explanation was made by the parties on the floor of the House on Monday. Mr. Bayley represented that he had not intended to include Mr. Davis in his charges, whereupon the latter rose and withdrew his charge of "false representation." Mr. Bayley then with. drew the "lie" which hail been given—thus ter, minating the difficulty. Ernie Sub-treasury Law, which went into operation on the Ist of January, requires that all Government dues (including Postage) shall be paid in specie. Postmasters are aecordingly required to demand and receive gold and silver for postage on letters, papers, &c.
