I ed two years since, there is but one Republican
member from Pennsylvania, all the rest being
Jackson men. For the next Congress, twelve
members have been elected in opposition to the
Jackson caucus nominations, four of whom are
decidedly Anti Jackson, two are claimed as
Jackson men; the. political preferences of the
other six, elected BY the Anti-Masons, are not
certainly known, but it is believed that most if
not all of them are opposed to the present ad:
ministration. OF the Republicans elected is
Andrew Stewart, former member, who lost

his strong opposition to Jasksonism. In the

So far as returns are received, there is little
doubt of the election of Gen. Macarthur, the
republican candidate for Governor, by large
majority, although opposed both by the Jack.
sonites and Anti-Masons. Only two jackson
men are yet known to be elected to Congress
ard one of them voted, at the close of the last
session of Congress- against the administration,
and was now supported by the republican party.
In all the other districts heard from, the repub-

known to have changed them, in several IN

will be chosen at the approaching session of the
assembly. In Cincinnati where there has
heretofore been majority of above 1000 for
Jackson, the Clay ticket succeeded by from
to 200 majority. In some other parts of the
State tho change has been nearly as great.
10 There is nothing which disturbs the
equanimity Of our Jackson men more than the
exhibiting of facts which go to prove the good
policy OF the American System,--a system
which the present administration are endeav-
orIng, by all the means in their power, TO over
throw. It was, therefore, to be expected that
the qualification we expressed at the establish.
ment of a new branch of manufacture amongst
us-that Of copperas-would cause them to
throw off some of their bile. Such has been
the case. 1t has been denied that the protec.
ton Of that manufacture has reduced the price
of tho article, and it is said that it was lower,
previous to the laying of the duty than it now
is. We grant that there were times, when, in
consequence of glut in the market, it was
sold at very low rate, and SO it always will
be with any article for which we depend on
foreigners for supply. The price will always
be ductuating, and, if it is sometimes very loso,
it will at other times be proportonally dear.
| But it should be recollected that, when it is
low, though it may benefit the consumer, the
country is no gamer by the reduction in the
price, as the loss falls on the importer. But,
when the article is manufactured here, so as
to be afforded at price below that at which it
can be proftahly imported it is SO much clear
gain to the country
The facts stated in our article can be SUBJ
stantiated from undoubted authority. And we
may safely appeal to the recollection of every
person who has dealt in copperas for the last
25 years, if it has not been, and for consider.

CoNvEETIoS OF TEACHERS. The Conven-
tion of Teachers which assembled in this town
on Tuesday Of last week, closed its session on
Friday evening. During the sitting, lectures
on subjects connected with education, were de-
livered three times a day, morning, afternoon,
and evening, and were generally followed by
discussions on the subject treated of by the lee

and the interest appeared to increase to the last.

result from the interchange of opinions on the
occasion. The lectures were generally pract-
