Tlie subjects submitted for the Governor's'

the "National. Currency," the "National -

above was gotten-up seeretly,and its eilstence,,
unknown-to,the people of this County. It seems.
te.htte been one of those kind of bills not niade
publie—not,healthy to see the light of. day until
passed. Thi s s was the only link that the RtNicl
mg ;Railroad Company needed to complete its
absorbing process, - and it came at laid without
any preparatory notice to the people, lint even
from 'Senator 'Randall and the Representatives,
from this County who could nett be ignorant; of
the effect of the patotage`of the bill. If the hill
had - been defeated by 9ur Senators and Repre
.sentatiyes,' the "Reading Railroad could not have
absoibed the Canal, -and abandoned` ship - ping
points 'on it. And the final result will be the
complete abandonment of the Canal in Schu,Vl
`kilt County for with the shipping .oCcoal by it
transferred below the Blue Mountain, the Canal
above will belit'a measure disused and till.' p •

will be caused by this bill which Senator Rail

tore from this County; permitted to be paseed
without opposing it. . ' •
Now, let Mr.ltandall extant if he can, this

THE NEW HESSIAN - gAZETTK, writing from

PaACE PROSPErII4.--Th! Taxis thinks., that

peace to Europe., which 'lves never more than,a`
bare possibility, becomes daily less anir less,
and now threatens to vanish altogether:• It
seems certain that Paris enlist boar the larunt of
attack before the firit condition of negotiatibn.
• will, be arrived at. We cannot Hatter ourselies
with any belief that there will, be so much tia. a

THE Timis or.PEACE.—TIie SpeCtator, thinks
that it was only right that Paris phould be made
to feel to its .very centre. what ithe cry of "A
Berlins!" really meant- But this once accom
plished, the responsibility of . German lead
ers becomes very grave indeed.. It is•known
that the French 'Provisional Government 114
quite willing to , yield almost anythhig but ter
ritory is. a condition of peace to the powerful
foe, but' it will not transfer French subjects and'
Preach provinces to Gormany.against ther own
consent. '
ramtcu liixousxcE or tixikut.tefix.—The
Manchester Gt7a nninx says:—The. Gernninis
latigb at the French for their ignominy() of goo--
gmpby, and tell tales.of prinoners who Periously
asked whether it was true that Berlin had been
bombarded by the French fleet. One can hard
ly henceforth accuse than' of exaggeration in:
theie stories when one finds tpe French Gov
ernment idOr confessing to the Parisiamithat
it had rerxmanended:Getieml Ulrich, the brave
defender of Strasburg; to cross the Rhino with
hislarrison. The unfortunate General natural- .
ly asks, in reply, "Row could I cross the Rhino
wid:int abridge or . boat?" .
lisamonrrioti.—The TELEGRAPH think, it
unlikely and somewhat unreasonable that Prus
sia should be the first of the great powers to
recognize the. French Republic. She will natu
rally ask what guarantee Id. Jules Favre and
bia.colleogues can give that the obligations they
may assume will not be repudiated by France.
Tbettusit natural course seems to, be. that after
the capitulation of Paris; which the Ta.t.zonAen
aUbmes to be inevitable, and which it supposes
must end the war, Prussia would. convoke;the
Senate end the'', Corps, Legislatlf. The Chem

With such broad differences of political faith,

The disorganizing polferit pursues thrbugh

policy of the Northern DenioCracy, , in the vain
hope that such an unhallowed coalition tnay re
sult in once more gaining the reins of national
political power In this hope it will be -surelf
disappointed, for no friend of equal rights and
equality before- the law, and no voter of that
race which has been enfranchised fly-the liberal_
and enlightened action of the Repu bl bap -party,
1- can ever give its support to a party whose. petit
ical policy is so retrogressive as is that of the
• •Democratic party.
Ever,anxions to relieve the people fiond - the
burdeniy, of an oppressive taxation, resulting
• from fmr'efforts necessary to crush out a Demo
cratic rebellion. the Republican party has sought
to adjust the internal revenue laws so as to
atfordinimediate relief to *II .claaSeaof the
,peo
ple.; ' -
It has abolished all' the special taxes that were
- so irritating and "annoying, and now the-met
chant and manufacturer, the lawyer, the doctor,
the farmer, and men iii moat other oceupations,
can pursue their avocations wjthotit receiving
visits from the tai. gatherer e There now re
mains a tax' on 'only a few articles, such as ,
liquors, tobacco, stamps, bank dividends, and
one" or two other things, which belong to the
class of luxuries rather tbah of necessities.
The delicate question:of.so atijusting the du
ties on, imports as 'to afford the best possible
protection to our AmeriCin manufacturers and
their laborers against the low wages and cheap
-capital of Europe, was most carefully consid
ered by the Republican majority 'in Congress,
and in spite of the hostility of ; the Deinocracy,
an act had passed carefully., discriminating be
tween those articles which' we could not manu
factute or produee and those which 'we could,
and affording adequate protection to the latter,
and admitting • the former at low rates or free
duty. • •
In the controversy mier this' act" the Deirm 7
tie party was always{' in • unison - with -- the
foreign free traders, and Wave its Whole' influ
ence to the interest^ of form mieufacturers
and importers, and 'agains ..the American

By this reduction of the filtern evenlie and
inclobe taxes, and the duthisn imports, the Re:,
publican party; has• relieved the people of bur
dens to the estimated/m:l . lbn of eighty mililions
of dollars per annum. .1 i "
In addition to this . it has
.reduCeil - the army.

of the army and navy several millions per
