morals but able and plausible, he is probably one

pEsEsyLvAs1A.-Gov. Porter and tbs State
Administration are hard at work to countermne
Senator Buchanan. who sets himself up as q can
didate Tor next President meaning to carry the
vote of the State into a National Convention end
there trade it Of to the best advantage. Against
him the Porter clique have tried two OF three
Presidential demonstration.-frs on Commodore
Stewart; next on Col R. M. Johnson and, this
failing, they have now taken hold of Gen. Cass
sands Of Circulars setting forth his claims, on which
the Postage is charged to the State Tressury-so
that Pennsylvania has some thousands TO pay for
this electioneering intrigue. However, she is so
flush Of money, she won't mind it. Gov. Porter
is TO run for Vice President with Cass OF Johnson
or whoever they may be able to get started.
There will be an attempt made by the Porter
clique this winter to defeat Senator Buchanan 3
reelection, with what success we shall see. The
probable candidate is Governor Porter's brother
and chief adviser-n fact, the Governors govern
or-James NJ. Porter, now President Judge.
He is an able ard subtle man. and used to be a.
leading National Republican till he found it would
not pay.
The State Works of Internal Improvement have
been SO horribly and wastefuy msmanaged as to
Involve the State in bankruptcy and there is gen
eral wish that they should be sold for wba, they
will fetch in the deprecated State Bonds, thus re-
ducing the State Debt very largely The late Legis
lature took measures looking to this consuma-
ton. To countervail them the State Government
has just lot out the Columbia Railroad upon shares
to private company for period Of four years.
1t is supposed that this will have the intended cf-
feet of stopping the sale.
% The Erening Post says it is dangerous TO
create Corporations to construct great Works of
Internal Improvement. lest they become Political
eng ines. So we wont create any. But the Mor7s-
ing Post declares that the late Election is decis.
ion against all Internal Improvement by the Gene

shall they be constructed The Federal Gov
