Strange ReSuSeitatiOES.

One would suppose that the fragrant
abuses perpetrated by the federal party
under the administration of Joseph Rimer,
would have consigned to inglorious retire
ment the prominent leaders who then fig
ured before the public. But it seems that
no species of treason or corruption, which
men can practice, is bad enough to forfeit
the confidence of federalism, or bring up
on them the condemnation Of that party.
Accordingly, we find that most of the
master-spirits during an administration,
which forms the darkest page in the histo-
ry of Pennsylvania, are placed in office,
or put forward to positions, showing that
they are still honored and trusted by the
federallsts. Stevens is elected to Congress,
Penrose is appointed by Gen Taylor as
sistant secretary of the treasury, Burden
is federal candidate for the legislature in
the city, William B. Reed is Gov. John
ston's deputy attorney general, L. S.
Cunningham was appointed Judge by Gov.
Johnston. John Dickey was the organ of
the federal committee who received My
self and General Tayler at Beave er, Mid
dleswarth is the defeated federal candidate
for canal commissioner, and thus we might
go on to the end of the chapter, and show
that all the authors of the bank bill. the
extravagant appropriations and the buck
shot war, are still high III the favor OF
federalism. But the galaxy of stars we
present is suf1icient-the group cannot be
equalled-so many such men were never
before contemporaries. We hope the old
and middle aged viii recur to memory,
and that the young will look into their
history. With a party who honor and
trust such men, public virtue and private
purity are at acknowledgement.

sentatives, SO effectually tied the hands of
Gov. Johnston that he dared not bring for
ward the favorite reform measure he IN
troduced into the senate in IS4S, to create
manufacturing corporations with authority
to issue shin-plasters. Should the ieder-
alists obtain a majority in the next legisla-
ture, this wise measure will be put IN
operation, and we shall have another
reign of federal reform equal to the glorl-
Gus one under Joseph Ritner!
The result of s'Iayl0r and reform
remains yet to be seen. No message has
been delivered-no congress has been in
sess1on-no system of policy, or great ad-
minisrative measures have been put forth.
Iay iorisn, as yet, has only been remark
able for disregarding pledges; universal
prescription; the ingratitude of Its chief
towards his companions IN arms and the
party who made him great; his kindness
towards those who beiriended Mexico du-
ring the war; his humiliatlng exhibition OF
ignorance and inca apacity for his present
station; his most dishonorable countenance
of the deceptions which have been prac-
ticed in his name in the publication of
speeches which he never made, and giving
pledges which have all been coldly bro
ken; and his yielding his power, his ap-
pOin:ments and his entire position, with
out reserve, into the hands of a cabinet of
bitter vindIctive partisans, which numbers
not among its members a single liberal
minded enlightened statesman.
Federalism enhYenS the present cam
paign with the shout Of ''Iulier and re-
JOTm! They charge that corruption and
extravaganza prevail in the management
of the public works-:hat the commission
ers are incompetent. and the subordinate
officers are all free-booters and plunderers,

reform" before their eyes,) and that Mr..

TO manage railroads and canal-to direct
repairs upon canal banks, culveris, aque-
duets, locomotives, rails, bridges, tunnels,

The analogies are intimate, in the view OF
federalists, between Coke and canals, Lit

Affairs Of Ireland.

In the Dublin Irishman OF the 18th
inst, Mr.. Gavin Duffy comes on a sec
ond article, entitled '.T'he New Nation, in
which he suggests the formation of Ma
tional Associations, which will set to and
make some practical attempt to solve with
out delay the following questions:
|. Whether we cannot raise capitol 10
found an Irish plantation, with Irish money
and for Irishmen.
II. How far is it possible to form agri-
cultural colonies in Ireland, on estates pur-
chased under the new act, or to form par
ishes into such colonies.
III. What handicralts and manufactor-
les, not requiring coal or expensive ma
chinery, can be firmly rooted in the
country by encouragement and superinten-
dence?
". What rude fabrics for home use can
still be made in rustic districts.
V. In what respect America can encour-
age Irish manufactures?
VI. How far the Irish in America could
6e induced to return and purchase small
properties in fee!
VII. Whether Irishmen could not catch
Irish fish; instead of the very coasts OF
( Dublin, within stones throw Of the
shore, being fshed by Manx and English
boatsl
VIII. How far the vast multitude OF
children in the workhouse, nearly 10000
could be taught by indenture Of schools,
new trades and pursuits, embracing the
manufacture of foreign articles imported to
Ireland!

X Whether the generous, sensitive

red Jacket of the mercenary soldier.
Such are the proposals now made for

to restore Ireland to the Irish, and her Ma
