Branch and its tributaries abound in this vall-
able mineral-the veins are said to be thicker
than those of Allegany county, and iron ore is
perhaps more abundant
That the product Of this region in either of
these indispensable articles of civilized life,
would almost Immediately remunerate either
Maryland or Virginia for the whole cost of the
construction of the Canal, cannot be doubted,
when reference is had to the abundance, the
inexhaustible abundance, of the coal, and the
probable abundance OF the iron ore that will be
brought into value, when the means of trans
portation for them are afforded.
In the report of N. S. Roberts. Esq., he says:
sin Virginia, about one mile and half south
of the mouth of Savage, this vein measures at
least Is feet thick of very pure coal-and 1t was
confidently affirmed, that near the heads OF 'he
Potomac this vein is in many places at least ~
feet thick, and is situated on the very banks OF
the river" In another part Of his report, where
he speaks of the extent Of the country yielding
coal, he says: as each square mile OF the great
vein alone would yield more than sixty millions
of tons, or 200 millions of bushels, if could be
exported at the rate of 500 tons per day. it would
require 400 years to exhaust one square mile oil

NExr PREsrpENr-The wings have every thing
to gain by remaining non committed, and see 10
what extent parties are marshalled and DIVIDED
between Judge White and MIR. Van Buren,
Much essential good may arise from dispas-
sionate and able appeal to the people OF the Uni,
ted States on the abuse Of executive powers and
the dangers of the succession; and if a majority
of the dominant party should think it safe to
choose Judge White in preference to Mr.. Van
Buren,, the course of the wings is easily to be an
ticipated and success is certain
We have been much surprised 10 discover in
conversations with our Tammany friends oflate,
how great the detection Is towards MIR. Van bu-
rem; and several influential friends of Gen. Jack
son have assured US that If the Legislature OIL
Tennessee shall respond to the nomination oil
Alabama Judge White will find powerful par
ty in this state. New York must not be calcula-
ted upon as decidedly in favor Of MIR. Van Blu
rem, in spite of the powerful shackles by which
the people are held. Gen. Jackson's majority
over Mr.. Clay was but Is, 900, and ii two-thlrds
of the wing party will vote for MIR. Webster,
and the anti-Van Buren, Jackson men vote the
White electoral ticket, it is certain that an Bu-
rem loses this state, and the election OF course
We have no doubt that Judge White will leave
this question with the people, and will neither be
coaxed nor inundated to quit the field. we
requite certain that he will be supported by Vlr
ginia and North Carolina, his native state. we
are assured that he will get Georgia, and posi-
bly, South Carolina. Mr.. Clay'S frlends III the
west are willing, we learn, to support him; and
the "signs" at present are, that the whole SCUM
and nest will go for him. If the New England
states should sustain Mr. Webster, even 1t he
should not succeed, he renders an lmpayaoe
service TO his country by preventing any move
ment in favor of Mr. Van Buren,. In this state
ofthings the wings have nothing to gain by COM
hitting themselves as a party to any candidate.
The breach in the Jackson ranks is already wide
and deep The honorable and high minded
friends ofthe President will never allow 'hem
selves to be bound hand and foot and thrown
PROSTATE before Mr.. Van Buren,. The Tennes-
see delegation is already divided, and ere long
the Kitchen Cabinet will be in decided minorl-
ty. We must be prudent and discreet in our
movements; the country is in condition which
allows US to risk nothing for the sake OF effect
for gratifying the wishes OF one candidate, or the
acknowledged claims of another. Success
success-succeSs should be the watch word; let us
break down the plot the Albany regency and
the Kitchen Cabinet to ensave this country, ana
any man of honor and reputation opposed to the
oligarchy should be Our mdR.-N. T. Star.

YOUTHS TRACT SOCIETY OF ALE&A.

This Society, which so lately sprung up among
us and which bids fair to become not only an
ornament, but benefit to our town and neigh-
borhood celebrated its first anniversary on the
9TH January last, in the First PRESBYTERIAN
Church. under the Pastoral care Of the Rev. f.
Harrison. The Church was well filled with
respectable and very attentive audience, VINO
manifested a deep interest in the welfare OF this
youthful institution.
The exercises of the evening were commenc-
ed by the choir performing very appropriate
piece of music The blessing OF God was ear
nestly impored by the Rev. II. Slicer, OF the
Methodist Church.
The Annual Report was read by the Secieta-
nv. which exhibited a gratifying statement Of the
OPERATIONS of the Society. We regret our ina
bill ty at present, TO furnish an account OF the
operations during the year past. ON the con-
cIusion of the Annual Report, and the pertor-
nance of another piece Of music by The choir,
the meeting was addressed, in forcible man
ner. by the Rev. MeSsrs. Harrison and DAVIS, OF
this Mace, and the Rev. Mr.. Perry, Of Philadel-
mia The addresses were eloquent appeals
mon the subject Of Tract distribution, and caus-
ed, we believe, almost universal appreciation
On the conclusion of the latter gentleman,
collection was made, amounting to Sl3 Oh, ex'
elusive Of gold ring. During the collectloh
the choir performed another piece Of appro..
priate music. The Society was then addressed
by Mr.. VIM J. Clark, Of Philadelphia, in few
remarks, expressive Of his views OF the Society's
efforts, and urging the members forward In
their work. At the request of the Society, he
extended an invitation to all the youth then pre-
sent. TO unite with them in their glorious work.
We learn that they received an addition OF Sc
veraI new members before they retired. Be-
fore the meeting adjourned, proposition was
made by gentleman present, to subscribe 81,
on condition that twenty-five other subscriptions
to the same amount, could be obtained. The
call was responded to by the audience, in part.
We believe, however, that the whole amount has
not been subscribed. The benediction was pro-
nounced by the Rev. Mr. Harrison.
This Society is the first ofthe kind which has
risen in our midst. We sincerely hope and
pray that the inhabitants Of this place will not
allow it 10 fall 1t is in their power to support
it, and make It a useful institution-nsef not
only to the town and neighborhood, but also to
the youth composing it. 1t maintains no secta-
rian ground 1t stands upon the broad basis OF
UNION, and brings into its bosom the youth Of all
denominations. 1t looks to the friends OF Reli-
gion, and calls to them for their countenance
and support in sending the messengers OF peace
to the destitute and dying. We trust they may
not look in vain. T.,

PARTIES IN ENGLANp-As very general curios-
ity is evinced to know in what manner parties
are at present divided in England, it might, in
some measure, satisfy that curiosity to state that
there are at present political parties in that
country.
|. The ultra Tories of which Lord Eldon is
the Chief or head. They are of course opposed
TO all reform. political or religious.
g The Moderate Tories, who are led by the
Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert Peel. is
supposed that they will consent to temperate
reform.
3. The Sem-Whigs, as they are called, the
most conspicuous members of which are Lord
Stanley, SirJ Graham, and the Duke of Rich
mond, seceders from the Administration Of
Lord Grey. This party is very small and incines
most to the moderate Tories
4. The Moderate W higs the party late in pow
er; at whose head are Lord Melbourne and
Lord Brougham. Their standard Of Reform is
somewhere between the Semi-Whigs and the
Moderate Radicals.
S. The Moderate Radicals. Lord Durham the
great antagonist of Lord Brougham, heads this
party, assisted by such reformers as Mr. Home,
Ward, &c. II is called the great movement par
Nv of that country, short of radical change in
all its institutions.
s. The Ultra Radicals: this party acknowl-
edges Mr.. OConnell as its leader, with Goblet
and Hunt as conspicuous coadjutors. II goes
for annual Parliaments and universal suffrage,
with the other concomitants OF democracy, such
as exists in this country.

malice or revenge, had contrived to deposite in
the powder magazine Goals of fire wrapped up
in linen. They were, however, discovered
and removed before any mischief was done,
and the design of destroying the vessel and crew
frustrated. The investigation which immedi-
atey succeeded the discovery, showed that the
crew ofthe Enterprise had all been at their pro-
per stations except the mulatto in question, who
was found in the boat alongside, where it was
evident he had gone to be out the reach OF dan
ger. The United States ships Natchez, Ontario,
and Erie, were also lying at Montevideo at the
time ofthis affair, and when Captain S. sailed,
Com. Renshaw was holding Court Martial

The LOST Kirkpatrick Lyon was a capital
hand at making safety lock, and no less adroit
in picking one also in an honest way. A mer-

had been opened twice, and Patrick demanded

demand, but he was bouncing mad when he
found the compensation doubled; he peremtorily
refused to pay him; and Patrick having slapped
down the lid again, walked second time lei

however was finally triumphant. The merchant
