The followiug is from that paper in regard to the Senator fn.tu this District: LION. FRANCIS JORDAN. This gentleman represents the Senatorial district composed of the counties ol Bed ford, Somerset and Fulion. He was torn in 1820, in that part of Bedford county -which unw couipo:es the county of Fuitoa. lie iived on a farm with Lis parents until nearly twenty years of age, Laving aeco-s only to indifferent county subscription schools, arid may be said to be emphati cally a self made nan. By the kind libe rality- of an uncle, he was seut to Augusta College, io Kentucky, aud sabsoquetitly at tended Marshall College, at Mercersburg, Franklin county, for a short time, but nev er took a regular college course and never graduated. For from one to two years af ter quitting college, he taugut school to raise means to educate himself aui pay his boarding and expeuses while strdyiog law. He read law under the Sate Samuel M. Berclav, Esq., of Bedford, who formerly represented the same district iu the Seuate, and was well known to rlie writer of this sketch, and to the people of the State, as a prominent and devoted \\ hig, e distin guished lawyer aud an able representative. His early and sudden decease was univer sally deplored. Mr Jordan was admitted to practice io Bedford county in 1847. Not long atter wards lie was appointed District Attorney by the lion. Jauies Cooper, Attorney Geu cral, aud was subsequently re-appointed by tbe Ilou. Cornelius Darragh and the Hon. Thomas E. Franklin: and when was made elective, he was nominated for the saiue position by the Whig party of his district, aud elected hv a handsome major ity. lie served out that term, but decliued a re-election. During his whole term of service as Deputy Attorney General aud Distiici Attorney, no iudictuieut was ever qntsbeJ lor informality, a circumstance which speaks well tor his correctness and competency. For the last several years he has bcetl iu partnership iu tbe practice of the law with the Hon. Alex. King, of Bad ford, one of the ablest lawyers in the Com monweal tb, and who also formerly repre sented Mr Jordan's district in the ben ate. Mr. Jordan was elected to the Senate in 1854, and is, therefore, now at Ilarrisburg for the third session. His name was pre sented as a candidate for the noiuiitatiou of his party for Speaker at the opening of the present session, but he gave way to the preii-ut incumbent of tbe chair 1M polities, Mr. Jordan is an- Am-rioan Republican. lie in bold in the avowal of Lis polities! principles, aud firm ar.d deter, mined in their advocacy.

Curt erpondmct of Inquirer and Chronicle. HAKRISBCBO, Feb. 10, 1857. MR. —A most. important bill has recently been introduced into the Sen ate, by Mr. Pcfirose, of Philadelphia, for the sale of What is celled tbo Main Liue of the public works. It proposes to sell the same to the Pennsylvania Hail road Compa ny for the sum of nine millions of dollars. The company is authorized to increase its capital stock nine millions, and to isuecer tideates for the saute amount, in puvment for the public works. The State agrees t .ipi'iopriati' five millions of these certificate* to toe voiiplcuon ( .f il,c Sunbury ami Erie IL.iiiumi. and also agrees to release the tVniir-vlvuuia Railroad from ibe payment of the t.iX Oil tonnage. Too State would therefore not receive the nine millions in money, but in railroad stook, four millions in the stook of the Pennsylvania road, and five miilions m the stock of the faun bury and Erie. The stock of the Pennsylvania or Central road pay* respectable dividends aud it is alleged that the stock of the other road will also pay well before long. This is considered cue of the most important bills of the session, involving as it does not ouiy large pecutiiary interests, bat grave ques lious of State policy. liowevet desirable it may be to get rid of the main liue of Stato improvements, it may be well questioned whether the adoption of tbe I due me propo sed by this bill would not be ,u ihe end bad policy. In the first place, is it right to per mit the Central Railroad Co. to become the purchasers, and thereby monopolise the car rying trade of the State be tween the East and the West? Even it*this, important ques tion be answered in the affirmative, tLen is it good policy to invest the proceeds moth er public improvements! The past history of Pennsylvania does not seem to warrant any further connection with public improve ments; and it is imped our legislators will examine these questions carefully before they embark on any new schemes of expen diture for either canals or railroads. Legislation is prr grossing slowly, with a promise that the session will continue until the first of May. Notbiug further done in the case of I)r. Pewitt, the Libraliau, since my last letter. 'ibe Susquehanna river opened here on Monday morning, and has been full, and the ice running plentifully ever sines, up to this, Tuesday, evening. Much damage has been done (Q SC ,-eral of the piers of the new Cumberland Yulley Railroad Bridge, and great fears are enter'.aiued that some of .hem will be carried away altogether, un less the river tails or the ice ceases running very soon. The cars have not vcutured over it tor the last two days, aud I presume will not until it is repaired. The high wa ters and ice detained travel both cast and west ou Monday, but ull are now arriving as usual, and no serious damage appears to l ave been done to either the bridges or the tOad. A bill has been introduced into the House proposing to establish what is called the Fre Ranking System. I: has been report ed ujou favorably by a special committee, but what its fate may be 1 cauuot even guess. 1 have not yet seen the bill, hut beiteve it authorises every person, or corporation formed tor the purpouo, /, Mimmeucs and carry on bttDkinu who will first deposit with the State sufficient securities for the re demption of all notes which may be issued. The same system is now iuoperaiion ia New York and other States, and is ieportcd to work well. Yours, truly, SPECTATOR. [Communicated RE PUBLICAN MEETING.

Resolved, That the Republicans of Bed ford county take pleasure in renewing their expressions of loyalty aud devotion to the platform of principles established by the Republican National Couveution at Phila delphia, til the 17th of Juue, 1856; em bodying as tbey do professions of unswerv ing fidelity to the Constitution and the Colon of the States, and the fullest recog nition of tue Rights of Man.

By his eminently wise, patriotic aob economical administration of the affairs jt tiio commonwealth, lie has proved Lis ca pacity ii occupy with credit the highest post in the mi. ton.

Love* and Jus. S. Tussey be appointed coufer..o s ; to meet similar eouferecs from the counties \"f l ulion anSomemt, 4 to appoint a Sena ' atcria! delegateto said convention BEDEORD INQUIRER AND CHRONICLE. The mebung was briefly addressed by Messrs King, Filler, Russellaud Tussey. On motion, adjourned. "The \\ estmorelaud delegations Lave the thanks of their constituents" for refus ing to be governed f>v the voice of tlie ma. i jority in the selection of a candidate for Senator. So says the Westmoreland lie ; publican: jf this he true, all honest Dr , mocrals will mourn over the full of that once honored county. But we think our friend MARCH AND is slightly mistaken iu his prophecy." BhP'Wecopy the foregoing from the Bed -1 ford Gazette of Friday last, lu answer t we can itiform Gen. Bowman, that so far as jwe can ascertain, and we have made fre quent enquiries on the subject, the consti i tuents of Messrs. Foster, Kill and Fausold inost cordially sustain them in the course they have pursued. So f'ar as the Demo cracy of Westmoreland county tire con cerned, they caro but little for the hypo critical mourning of our friend Bowman, who is new ou the 'anxious bench, awaiting for some reward for his services iu slander ing men who are infinitely belter than him self. The idea is perfectly ridiculous in Gen. Bowman, thus attempting to read a homily to the democracy of Westmoreland—if he would sincerely tell his "experience," it would he rolhcr a dark one. How often has he bolted nominations when fairly made? Did he not sustain the bolters when lite Hon. .Job Maun was elected State Trea surer! Did he not but a short time since take down the uame of 3laj. Win. Searigbt, the Democratic nominee for Canal Commis sioner, and at that time attempt to justify his traitorous course to the Democratic par ty? It is not long since that in defiance of the almost unanimous wislies and instruc tions of the Democracy of Bedford eountv. he persisted iu forcing Mr. Dallas upon the people in stead of the Hon. James Buchan an, the President elect. Did no; the De mocracy of his county at thai time, in mass meeting assembled, indignantly make him retrace his steps and give a reluctant sup port to James Buchanan. Wc might re peat other things in the eventful life of this political chameleon, but it is unnecessary would take more room than wo ate will ing to bestow upon such a topic. In his paper he calls the representatives from Westmoreland ' Traitors." Sagaci ous General—wonderful niau—truth-loving and full of charity. Docs he know the full meaning of the word he thus so glibely ut ters. We doubt it. \\ ill he not in a short space of time attempt to crawl out of his present position, as he has crawled out of many a worse plane ..ruTnt— Would he not sell the Democratic party in order to obtain office under the next ad ministration. General bo manly for once in your life and openly confess, that you, in your un wonted zeal said things in your last paper, that you knew to be untrue. Be a good boy and come up to the confession—and all will he forgiven.— Greensburl ol Beuford 5^97 w.r* 19,6-18 Bradford 9,714 S ' jcks 15/200 &" 1 " 8,500 .auilro 5)702 f" lie 6,088 ~irb.o 4538 e l fer 16,893 .hn-a 6263 Jhaueld 4>loß 3,600 . uttnbia 5 479 Mrd 9,674 -atberhnj 7)904 I'aplnu 9 024 L'aware g 162 J 1 1,239 ; r 9,953 * tte 7,825 t 4st Fnkliu 8,381. 1,838 5,336 itmgdon 6)72b oaria ' 6,232 let-son 3 ; 40 r ' 3,267 Lcaster 28,168 Lreuce 4)i72b -6,99U fS* 10,592 Lrrne 18,217 *mmg 7>374 Mtour 3)172 Mean I>63i ser$ er 7,328 3,450 i OO 3,357 wgomery 16)799 Shampton 11)235 Qgg . .. 4J17 hdelpkia 104,000 I 1,520 am-,. 2 ' 145 t>" Iklll 19,380 j Cr 3,145 7 rset 5.251 1,116 *i&haDn& j k 6,61 8 f 1 3,215 ! n ° 4,814 ) eD 3.769 Vington 10j007 !' e , . . 5,775 morelani 11)432 , uin S 2,501 |. 11,967 Tcul 596^132 e hundred members of the Legislature buted among this number of taxable litants makes the ratio of represent*. 5961.

Jhe Illinois and Michigan Caual is one hundred miles loug. It connects Chicago with the Illinois river, intersecting the lat ter at Peru. It is now proposed to enlarge this canai, so that boats ot the largest class may pass front Lake Michigan to the Illi nois river. It is argued by a writer in the Chicago Democratic Press, that such an im provement as will enable vessels of 800 or 1000 tons of burden to pass from Chicago to the Atlantic will iu a few years Le made as :t will he absolutely necessary to ac commodate the rapidly increasing com merce of the lukos, whether direct trade with Europe, without transhipment, be de sirable or not. As a step preliminary to the great enterprise, the writer urges the formation of a joint stock company to im prove the navigation of the Illinois river hv locks and daius, so as to secure at all seas on* a depth of six feet water in the channel to the Mississippi. This improvement, it is estimated, would cost three millions of dol lars, and the time required to complete it from the commencement would not be more than two year*. Should the Legislature of Illinois grant a favorable charter, the writer says, the stock would be readily subscribed. MR Sr.w.XEß. —The Andover Advertiser states the following facts from a personal interview with Senator S. : "Although he presents a noble figure in his person, the trying scene* though whicli he has passed during the last year have lefi their indelible mark upon him. llis bealfl is improving gradually, but at times he suffer* from his wounds.
