TRAVELLING ON KENAwuA ROAD

on Tuesday, the cngrosscd Bill authorisine the
James kiver Company, to regulate from time to
tlmo the tolls to be paid on stage coaches using
INC henawha Turnpike, passed the House of Del
'S"tes by vote Of 70 for, and Il against it, The
measure was one which addressed Itself STRONGLY
TO the Justice and lborality of the State.
we understood from the discussions which have
TAKEN place upon this application that the tolls
10" imposed amount to $500 per annum, on a
ua'y inc OF stages passing over 90 miles of turn
PIKE 10 accommodate tho increasing travelling.
u Is io"hn necessary to add another daily line.
winch when put in operation will increase the toll
to $4,000 When the road is completed to Rio
Sandy, which Is expected during the ensuing sum.
MGR, IS miles more will be added, making u,or
that part ofthc road the farther sum of 81 ion
and cons tituting upon the entire line of IFS miles
the sum of $1,000. Private Companies are on
gagged in constructing a Turnpike from Stanton.
TO ntcrsect the State road at Calahan's, which
will add about IS miles further, upon which tolls
will be demanded. Should the same rate Of CHARGE
DO adopted, tho amount 20 DO paid on their road
will be $4,000, making in the whole, upon tho
$50 miles from Staunton 20 tho Ohio, the sum Of
$4,000, which is the interest at per cent. on a

VAN BUREN, IN PENNSYLVANIA.

Pennsylvania is impregnablo. She is dotcrmi-
ned to demand her reward for her early and nHex.
blc adherence to the Hero, and that reward is, the
Vice President. Her own citizens are divided be
tween Dallas, Wilkins, and Buchanan, but they
are united on the external question, of voting
against any candidate but Pennsylvania. The
last Sentinel says
MARK THE RESULT.-About FOUR
COUNTIES Of the FIFTY THREE in the State. are
willing to forcgo Pennsylvania Candidate for
he Vice Presidency, or to submit the claims of
the State to the Baltimore Convention. These
counties Will have about TEN delegates out of
the ONE HUNDRED VIVID THIRTY THREE which
compose the State Convention. All the resi-
are tor Pennsylvania and her Candidates IT is
however amusing to see with what eagcrness the
proceedings OF small county in Pennsylvania,
which disscnts from the great mass on these
questions, are seized upon an evidence of
hesitation IN the course the good state has
marked out for herself Those who rest their
calculations on such grounds will be wofuy
disappointed The convention of the 5rh of
March will nominate DALLAS or WILKINS, and
the state will never degrade herself by aban-
donng them"

The credentials oi.nembers were then read, when, with few exceptions, all the mem hers elected attended and signed the roll. i motion was then made to elect q President, when Gov. HAMILTON was elected without opposition. There We're ten blank votes from portion, as is supposed, of the Union party, and a few scattering votes, but the Governor got I3S votes. He returned thanks in very handsome address. The Conyen- ton ther proceeded 10 the nomination of Clerk, when Mir. Isaac ". Hayne being nominated by Judge Colcock, was also elected without opposition. After the election of Door Keepers, &c. Jldge Golcock rose and submitted a resolution, proposing in substance to refer the let calling Convention, and the whole subject on which they had assembled, to select committee of 2l members. This was agreed to without opposition; and the Convention adjourned, to meet next day at ten o'clock, when the com mittee would be nominated. It was agreed that the proceedings of each meeting should be opened with prayer.
 As far as can be ascertained, the rel alive strength of parties in the Conven- ton is as iollows: State Rights Dele gales, l43; Union do. 26- whole num- Der i69.
