CONGRESS
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29t

WASHINGTON, Jan. ~Stn.
The good thing done by the House on
Monday was undone yesterday. The vote
ordering the Printing of the House to be
given to the lowest bidder is reconsidered;
ITO to lo7! The yessss end nays will again
tell you who it is who belle their princip-
les in the House in regard to Economy
You will find the six Van Buren, men from
Maine voting first against the Resolution
to have the Printing done by CONTRACT
secondly against having it done by him or
them who would do it the cheapest, and
thirdly voting in favor of the reconsidera-
ton of resolution to give it to those who
would do it at the least expense to the
General Government. 1t seems to me
from what can see the Van Buren, men
here that they are resolved to support n set
Of measures which they will not dare sup
port at home before their constituents.
The Slavery question is disposed OF and
the House have voted to REJECT the me-
MORALS for the Abolition Of Slavery and
the Slave Trade in this District or to en-
terrain any memorial, paper or petition re-
ferring to the vexed question. The vote
upon :his question. was ll4in favor Of the
Resolve to 1903 opposed.

LEV ELLING.

We have already observed that strong effort
was being made, by the loco focos of Pennsylvan-
in, to annul the Charter of the U. s. Bank ofthat
State. 1t appears from recent report the
subject, that the Bank has already paid to the
State nearly THREE MILLIONS of dollars. on
account of bonus for its charter according to the
contract, which was legally entered into by the
State when the Bank accepted its charter But
while the Constitution of the United States ex-
pressly declares that "no State shall pass a law
impairing the obligation Of Contracts" the agra
rians of Pennsylvania. and elsewhere, may rave
aud rant as much they choose, but until the
Bank fails in its stipulations, they cannot, con-
sttutionally. declare its charter null and void.
Tho locos of Pennsylvania. like others of the
same stamp, will probably croak over the "mon-
ster" for season. Us the fox croaked round the
raven the tree-top. and after finding all their
efforts to frighten or coax alike unavailing, will
most likely come to the wise conclusion, that
"discretion is the better bart Of paior 2" ...

The late movement in Pennsylvania, in chang
ing the time of holding the election of members
of the Electoral College for 1910, is certainly
of the most important movements, that we have
observed for long time
1t will be borne in mind, that Pennsy lvania, is
loco foco in both branches of her Legislature.
and the present Governor, of the same politics.
was chosen year ago, with very large MAORI
IT, Indeed the administration have claimed this
State, as one oftheir surest strong-holds. What
then could have induced the change ofthis gen.
eral and most important election, granting these
suppostions to be correct, we are at loss to de-
termine.
We think that under the old law, Pennsy lvania
has held her presidential election. the first among
the States: and we must acknowledge that in
many respects. her example has had a vast in
huence in bringing about the present unhappy
state OF affairs in this country. By the law which
has just passed, instead of voting first, she is to
be the very lastn This certainly argues some
thing Of very peculiar character. There is
somthing portent,ous in this movement depend
upon it. If Pennsylvania were sure to go for
Van Buren,. the benefit of such an example would
not be thus thrown away by our opponents. A
party SO notorious for subterfuges, false issues,
and humbugs, would not suddenly put on the
appearance of honest dealing, if some corrupt
motive were not concealed at the bottom.
The fact cannot be concealed, that loco focosm
is on the wane, in the 'old KEYSTONE defeat
is expected. and its consequences must needs be
guarded against by the faithful who dare not
risk everything, on one battle, where the chances
are as two to one against them.
Who shall doubt the success of the old hero Of
Tippecanoe, when his n anne carries such terror
and conster nation into the very ctadels of the
enemies of true democracy?

"THR H.pRI<nuRG NomiSATIoS." The last
Waldoboro Patriot. contains long article. under
this spccious title 1t must be kept IN mind, that
sine the Harrisburg Convention the whole loco
TOGO press has devoted a very large space to the
specific oLjec. of getting upa sympathy among
the friends ofMr Clay. 1t is but few months
since the iocos directing all their articles
to dcfamr the character ofths iliustrous States
man, this was when it was generally supposed
he would be the hig candidate for the Presiden-
cy But since, slandering Mr.. Clay, will be of
no further service to the loco foco party-they
have very suddenly changed their modus opsrand;
that is, dumped Jim Crow,' and now we see
in every loco foeo paper, we take up, the hypo-
critical and knavish cry about 'he much abused
and iH-reated Mr.. Clay!!" We should not
think strange, ifthe Patriot and ts kindred should
bye and bye, claim Mr.. Clay as loco foco, and
put this down as the true reason why lie was not
nominated by the wings. r
The article in the Patriot contains no points
which merit any particular notice. The main
object Of that print appears to be, to make out
GEN, HARRISON a federalist i-only think of il

fcderalist He might well tell us the moon

Johnson. members of the Patriots own party,
and hear what they will say of Gen. Harrison IS
federalism. [See last Telegraph
The Patriot after the manner of the party,
seems to be very anxious to mix up the subject of
abolitionism, with the Presiden tial question. We
trust the voters of old Lincoln, will at once set
the seal of reprobation upon all such attempts.
Our doctrine is, "Let evey tub stand on its own
bottom. If Gen. Harrison is abotionist, as
the Patriot asserts. whose business is it7 Our
noble Constitution allows all our citizens to en-
JOY their own opinions without moestation,
and surely man who has distinguished himself
Warrior and Statesman, ought not to be
denied the privileges, vouchsafed to the mean
est beggar Our business with Gen. Harrison,
is to support him as a patriot, as statesman,
and true Republican. well qualified to fill the
h ighest Office of the nation. We ask for no
amalgamations-no false issues--no humbugs
The question is upon "Retrenchment and Re-
form shall the People rule, or the Office

BATH WING YOUNG NEWS ASSOCIATION.
There is no town in this County where
Wing Association can produce more real
benefit than in Bath. Deeply impressed
with the importance of such an association,
we are glad to announce that our young
men have come manfully to the scratch
preliminary meetings have been held-and
an association organized.
We speak not as alarmists-we are not
frightened at mere shadows, but we SOL
EMMY and anxiously warn our citizens that,
if some decided measures are not speedily
adopted to check the tide Of radical tory
ism, then the fabric Of our institutions is
in danger. 1t may seem ridiculous for us
to assert that institutions formed by the
wisdom of the past age, and founded upon
the patriotism of the present, can be in
real danger but we must remember that
the very wisdom which formed our gov
ernment pointed to the very case now at
issue as its greatest and mortal enemy, and
we must also remember that unless we raj
iy 10 our own defence, we are unworthy Of
a free and enlightened government Slow
ly, but no less certainly. is loco foco in
influence undermining the foundations of
our republican government, and it now
remains for the people to declare whether
we shall continue to maintain our present
proud and enlightened supremacy over
the rest of the world, or sink with them to
the abyss of monarchy and despotism.
