and chose M S. Wheeler--2O to l2-Speaker of
the Senate--and one scatterng--4 members absent
a of them for Adams Mr.. EdOard King, Spea
her of the house 40 to 28-iour absent--three OF
them administration men. From the foregoing, the
character ofthe Legislature appears very mantestly
friendly to the present administration
Governor Trmblc's message sustans the power
of Congress to protect domestic industry, in very
lucid and powerful manner, and urges the exped-
ency of it but it seems unnecessary to lay his
views before our readers, at this time, since simi-
lar statements have been SO lately presenedto them
Of the Administration of the General Government,
he thus speaks.
Nor have we less cause to feel grateful when con-
templatiny the favorable and prosperous condition
of our common country. Under the guidance OF an
enlightened and liberal Administration, the great in
teress of the nation have continued to prosper, her
resources have been increased, the public debt re-
duced, and by mild, but firm execution Of the laws,
the rights ofhe citizens have been protected peace
and tranquility maintained, (both in our foreign u
domestic relations,) without resort to force and
under the peaceful influence OF our free institutions
we may repose in the perfect enjoyments OF civil
and religious liberty freedom ofthought ofspeech
and there are ''none to hurt or make US AFRAID
Mr.. Randolph has declined serving as Chairman
Of the Committee of Ways and Means-urging his
inability to discharge the duties in consequence of the
avery feeble state of his heath''-His voice is said
to be broken-&c. &C. Alexander Smyth. OF pro-
clamaton memory, and late an expounder OF the
apocaypse, was added to the Committee after the
House excused Mr.. Randolph. Mr.. M'Dutiie be-
comes the Chairman.
The Miners Journal-published in Schuylkill
county, Penn. states that Gov. Shulze cannot be
spared from that State for the Vice Presidency
and observes If his name vice President,
were connected with that of Mr. Adams, on the
Presidential ticket there is no doubt that ticket
would succeed in Pennsylvania by large nayority
The cause of the administration, however, requires
no such extraneous aid. Judging from the present
aspect of things, we are firmly Of the opinion, that
MIR. Adams will ultimately receive thevote Of Penn
sylvania."
We publish, to day, that part of the Treasury Re-
port which relates to the protection of Home Indus
try, to which we invite the particular attention o
the reader The first part oft treats Of the state
the Finances, and the liquidation Of the public debt
which, in substance has been laid before the reader
The Secretary, in conclusion, is not inattentive t.
the claims of Foreign Commerce, and points ou
some expedents for augmenting it, and gives the es
Inmates for the following ycar-caculating that tn
ordinary expenses will be paid-and ten millions 9
public debt, and leaving between two and three mil
lions in the Treasury at the end of thr year.
The Jackson Speaker, an old inmate and asso

did not think proper to put MIR. Johns on one of ii
Standing Committees, and the prostituted Pril
gives as the reason for it, that MIR. Johns was NJ
qualified for such an honour! George Kremer WI
put on Standing Committee and hence, su

gentleman We might as naturally conclude, tn
every man who goes to the Communion Table, al

in one eternal war with his Editorial brethren, a
devote most of his columns to defamation, msta
men assertions without proof or probability, a
the vilest trash, simply because the State of De
ware is disgraced by such citizen.
An Adams man not placed on Standing Co
lnittee by a Jack sonan And this is to be taken
; proof of his ncompetency for his station /!
A man placed on Select Committee, (as
Johns is,) and not qualified to be put of
various Standing Committees And this incom
tency declared by Print opposed to his elcct
and notoriously under the management of men,
Of whom has long aspred, and now aspires to
j his place, and talks of &c setting" the Prostit
