BURDEN, Esq. one of our enlightened senators:
Her civil architecture stands pre-eminent—her
moral , architecture is a model for the world.—tier
civil code stands second to none—Her system of
criminal laws is unrivalled—Her medical integri
ty is without a blot—Her sons have on the wave
and in the battle field sustained the glory of the
American gag—and among the bravest of the
brave have exhibited Pennsylvania, without fear
and without reproach.
The physical advantages of otir territory are
unsurpassed by any salon which the sun Rhinos.
There is more wealth in the bowels of her earth,
than would bur any state in the, Union—the min
eral coal--the iron—the salt, are alone resources
for industry, which will place us on a level with
the mos(._prosperous nations. Our canals and
rail roads are testimonies of the wisdom, courage
and enterprise of our citizens--and our commer.
cial prosperity, great as it is is yet in.ita eaalicst
Among the thirty.eight names recorded as hay
mg voted against the Deposite Bill in the Housu
of Ropresentatives,—that Bill whitrh Ga s s. Jed?
sox has approved, but which MAATITI Vex &seri
wished to kill,—we observe Two from Pennsylva-
nia, namely Mr. ASH and Mr. BEAUMONT.—
Both of these men, we hesitate to say, have be.
trayed the interests and misrepresentee the
wishes of their constituents, verily they will have
their reward. There is no State in the Union
that has a deeper interest in the completion of her
various internal improvements, or that is burden
ed with so heavy debts as Pennsylvania, sad con.
sequenty no-state had stronger reasons for desk
ring the passage of this bill, and yet two out of
twenty-five of her representatives voted against

peosle their-own money Herald.
extract of a letter to the . editor isc the
united States Gazette, dated
Washington, Juno 28, 1836.
It is said that the president has stricken
frota The roll of the Navy, the name of
ShOrb - omo, the midshipman - who- killed

From the Harrisburg Chronicle:
pi-oar.s Wmriva—The history of file favour.
no of the New York faction, this secret agent of
the Ler gue of Government Banks, is likely to be. I
cone public. One of t.he Washington papers
gibes a fac-simile of a. Bank note, ornamented with
a ;figure of KING GEORGE, and signed by
'Whitney, as President of the Kingston Bank. It
alko gives the followin_g history of that individual.
The letter of this New. York gentleman states
that Whitney was domiciled in Canada during-the
14te war that he took the oath of allegiance to
Great Britain, and acted during the war, or part of.
the war, as Commissary for the British army•
Such was the satisfaction given tq the Canadians
by the conduct of Whitney during the war, that
a short time after its conclusion a bank was esta
blished at Kingston, and, as if to reward him for
_his zeal in the British cause, ho was made prcsi.
dent. The sequel however shows, that he who is
a traitor to his country will be faithless in all the
relations of life.
The letter states that Whitney, our Presi.
dent ofthe bank, necessarily bad great control
over the funds of the institution. Makin; took
the notes of the bank and made large pusclaaaes of '
Sheep, land 4-0. and held them for a time, and sold
them; and getting; paid in other money, abscond
pd and fled to the United States. The people in
- Kingston, fired with :indignation at the vitla.ny of
(he man, erected a golloweind hung him in effi.
ay!"
This is the man who controls the Dcposite
Banks. Such power, in such hands, is truly
formidable to the liberties ofthe people. It is a
monster more (build than apy which the people
invoked to destroy.

Ea* on Monday morning lash our town' art la
thrown in an unusual commotion by a report that the
offiae.. of the Reporter was beset by a mob„ who tud

in favor.of Patterson.
On inquiry into the facts of the matter, we hid.

of the'State Jounial establishment, conducted koi
Cmbb & Barrett. which at the lam Union and Hume.

Wharton becoming an equal joint stock 'partner of the

Binding on Saturday evening. On Sunday evening
Wharton, with two other gentlemen, arrived herMand
on Monday morning, after taking counsel, they enter
ed the Reporter othee--proclaimed Wham-till tight
and ownership to the establiahment,tp the workmen,
and ordered :Patter -stark to retire and give peaceable
possession, which the latter refusing to do, ho was {so
li!ely helped out at the back door, .receiving his
flight the app li cation of the understandings of the com
pany to his obtuse angle, in a half bent posture. The
doors were then faiftened, and Wharton requested the
workmen who chose to remain, to continue :their
work under the new director. in the mean Ulna Pat
terson. in a state of purturberation scarcely to fie de
scribed—with hat off and hail:streamiug, which for
brilliancy almost eftlipsed the rays of the sun, ian a
round and raised, by means of promises of reward,
and otherwise, a posse of some fifteen or twenty uten
to retake possession of the establishment. The new
possessor bad bardlygot his aftangements made, when
Patterson and his party appeared in front of Ruled:Bee
armed for the occasion, and entered by breaking in
the door. They ordered Wharton and his melt to
surrender possession, which they resisted for a while,
but being overpowered by numbers, they agreed to do
so, Patterson agreeing to enter into an arrangement
that would be satisfactory to Wharton. Thus en
ded the affray. Pistols were drawn levelled hy both
parties, but although' there were some tft-Milis and
black eyes, no lives were lost nor blood shed. - .We
understand that Wharton's half of the establishment
was purchased the same day for Patterson. Some
further particulars with which we are acquainted, on
this subject, we defer until our next.
Takirig Me teil at Georgetown, D. C.--On Sa
turdy week, three young females underwent the
impressive ceremony:of taking the veil, before re
nouncing their connexion with the world, and en
tering a life of absolute devotion and prayer.—lt
took plare in the chapel of the Convent of
which was crowded with spectators, and a
great number of Protestants attracted by the nov
elty of the secene. The ceremony was said to be
highly affecting, and made a deep impression on
all. The Metropolitan gives the 'following des
cription of a part of the ceremonies:—
"Atter the irrevocable vow had been pronounc
ed, the Archbishop put the cross and chain, the
sacred symbol bf their profession, on the neck of
each, and afterwards the solemn veil, the
im
memorial type of their holy life. The mins were I
pronounced 'dead to the world,' and hi solemn
typification of their spiritual decease the Stewly
admitted Sisters severally lay down at their full
length, with their faces to the earth, and as if ac.
twiny dead, were covered completely with a pall,
while all the sisterhood, with lighted tapers in
their hands chaunted their requiem, and the ser
vice of the dead was performed by the priests and
congregation. This over, they were (41114 OM
by the Archbishop, 2resscd in , his full canonicals,.
arid the mitre oo his head, to 'awake in the Lore
—when the pall was removed, and while the
whole editfice resounded with hosanna* of gratu
lation, the buried forms arose, and in the hill dress
of their profession, crowned with virekths of
flowers, and bearing lighted tapers in Il t iptd,
blessingcall of the Archbishop swell* r
of the nuns into whose socicty , they had. en thus
solemnly inargunded.
"The! following arc the names and' %Tea of the
prOfreients, and the conventual by which they ere
to be hereafter distinguished. Mary IlleGerry,
now sister Mary Theodosia, aged 26, Smith Jen
kins, now sister Clara Agnes, aged 16, Olivia
Stonestreet, now sister Mary Fitiomeno, aged 17."
Mr. Brooks, in one of his late letters from
Europe, thus speaks:
"Newspapers are precious and scree. •. The
postage is immense. A stray Galignaol Oin Eng
lish newspaper printed in Paris,) may now and
then be seen, and the sight of one is a precious
treasure; but almost all 1 learn from the United
States is in the little journals of Italy, which are
aSout as large as the eighth-part of the National
Intelligencer of Washington. They tell me the
union is breaking up; that riots and rdwa are des.
olating the whole land; that the allsvce ire rebel
ling, and that a servile war is threatened. Ana
they rejoice loudly, as they hold up this admoni•
tion as the folly of men attempting to govern
themselves. Nothing so much delights them as
this last demonstration, as they call it, of thy im
posibtlity of a republic, even a hen founded under
the best circumstances. The Lynch laws partic
ularly delight them. Tho Mississippi 'gamblers,
Lynched as they were, are nevertheless compen
sated with an immortality in every despot's ;our
nal in Europe. The slave missionaries are wearing
a crown of glory here, as martyrs of a mad de
mocracy. How true all these thing. are, I have
no meansof telling; for all I see is in the little I-
Lathan joarrials, which ars particulady occupied
with such of our affairs as tend to discredit all
republican institutions. And, perhak one °fate
greatest ;pleasures of travelling is try read such
news Drone's own country in a foreign land, par
-nit
titularly ;when ill is pi obalde that at least
founded on fact. The emperor of An ia, it is
said, has' seized this oecasibn to inspire is Ital
ian subjects with a horror of all republican insti
tutions, by making it optional with some state
prisoners in Italy—whether they'will choose the
punishment of death at home, or banishment to
the United States!"
A downed Minn.—A Mr. Swift' was killed by
lightning at Hatfield, Mass. a few days since,
while driving his wagon with a ,pair -of horses.
His two horses were killed by the same bolt. It
is singular that - the same vehicle had twice been
previously struck with lightning both i times with
fatal cohscquences to tl.o Mince. About two
years since it was struck, in Hatfield at. and, three
horses killed, at another time it was struck and
two horses kille&—making in all{ sveir-horses

WHO SHALL. BE MARRI,EDT
The Taunton (3fasig.) Reporter tells the' follow.
mg story of judicial and (we doubt ncit) judicious
interfcrente to prevent a marriage. The idea, of
incompetency to Support themselves; is one of the
finest strokes of political economy that we have.
seen.—What wpuld be done in this; part of the, ;
country, should an inquest of that nature be bold' '
upon all "proposals?" We copy the ertieleg—U.
S. Gas. '
"To.men or not to marry, that', tg‘s question.'"
"Two of the worshipful magistrates of thia
twenty have been engaged. a 'meek of days in
this town.in trying the. question whether a Mtn ,
and woman should be permitted to enter inte the
honorable and responsible estate of matrimony:—
Evidence was adduced as to the competency et *
the parties to support themselves, entitle° s 16
the intellectual capacity of each. The Justices •
and the counsel seemed utterly to Ogren:it:Taber
the fact that they could live upon love—as ug pro.
red in many novels,plays and poems. They ac.a . .
cordingly decided that the parties shonld not be 1 .
allowed to marry—though they could not prevent
•them from living—and thus two fond and atrec.
tionate hearts are forever to be kept asunder by
the stern decree of the law." -
A forty old bachelor who come! almoit every
day to read the marriages in our exchange pa
pers, has Leen looking and laughing at the other
inquiry of the learned magistrates of Tatmten.
virThe intellectual capacity of the parties, which
he says is satisfactorily disprovedby the very act ,
upon which they were entering. Yet that same
bachelor always nibbles a goodly portion of the
wedding cake which he finds on ourAttble. • ..
