PRESIDENTIAL FAcETIousNEss The Balt.
more Patriot, recouniing the little incidents
connected with General Taylor's visit to
Washington, gives the following specimen of
facetiousness perpetra,ed by the President
elect:
Among others who introduced themselves,
was one Of the ubiquitous Smith family. On
hearing the name, General Taylor remarked,
with merry twinkling of the eye, "that's
no name at ALL" "Why, General" replied
Mr.. Smith, "you should have no objection to
the name-Mrs. Taylor was Smith," eyes,"
added he promptly, "but made her change
her name, and advised you to do so too
His manner to all, entirely without effort,
was exceedingly happy. He appeared to
have the faculty Of suiting his conversation
to all, even the plainesr, with such tact as to
totally disconnec, himself with the station to
which his countrymen had elevated him.

10 Governor Johnston and MIR. Cooper
have been at daggers points, since the cleo
ton of the latter as U. S. Senator. Co
vernon Johnston, it seems, set out quietly
to meet Gen. Taylor at Washington, few
mornings since. The friends of Mr.. Cooper
got wind of it a few hours afterwards. The
fact was quietly communicated to Mr.
Cooper, who very suddenly left his seat in
the House, and with carriage and pair Of
swift horses, was soon on his road "to head
him or die" The upshot of the matter
was, that they both arrived at York abou,

times more dangerous practice, when car
ried to extremes, than many imagine. A
woman on a Western steamboat, the other

sudden pause. The tremendous shower of

Harrisburg, Feb. %. {
My DEAR TIMEs.-Ye erday being gene
al holiday, did not get letter out of your
correspondent. A day SO sacred and thai
comes but once year-should be enjoyed
by all who are independent of hunger thirst,
and place wherein to put themselves o.
nights.
This has been day of some work. The
Senate passed bank bill or two, and per-
formed considerable labor on private bills.
The House passed the Senate's bill to repeal
the Ohio and Erie Railroad charter. The
question is settled now, so let me say word.
This repeating act, so warmly contended
for by Philadelphia and the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, will not be of any use to
either.
The natural and most advantageous route
for the trade of Northern and Western Ohio
and the great States below, is by way of the
Lake and the New York and Erie Railroad to
New York and Boston. The enterprise and
liberal commercial policy Of our more active
seaboard cities will always draw it there.
The people of Erie county will construct
their road and connect with the New York
and Ohio Improvements, charter or no char
ter. The right is theirs and they may and
| will use it.
Philadelphia could have secured goodly
portion Of this trade, with proper enterprise,
by the construction of the Erie and Sunbury
railroad; but she would not do that, and now
a giant company, with it's feet resting upon
the seaports Of Boston and New York, and its
arms grasping the borden Of the Lakes is
rapidly pressing onward to secure the whole
commerce Of the North west. The restric-
tive policy Of Philadelphia has been her
greatest enemy. Remember this.

% The editors Of the Miltonian are
becoming erudite, studious and learned
They have latterly undertaken to study the
Auditor Generals Report, and have learned
therein some things that have made them
exceedingly indignant. They therefore,
en- possant, administer a most malicious
kick at Sunbury and the Shamokin rail road,
and come to the sage conclusion if Sunbury
had nothing to do with the road and coal
lands, 100000 tons of coal would annually
pass over the road. If il will afford any
comfort to the editor, we will inform him
that no citizen of Sunbury has yet had any
thing to do with the management of the
road.

W The Miltonian thinksit exceedingly
impudent in us to say that "our Senator's"
vote on the repeal of the Erie rail road,
was in opposition to nineteen twentieths
of the people in this county. 1t may ap-
pear impudent, sometimes, to speak the
truth, especially to those with whom the
truth seems unpalatable. We venture to
assert that there is scarcely disinterested
and intelligent man in the Borough Of Mil
ton, who will not agree with us in regard
to Senator Fricks vote against the Erie road.
The Central rail road Monopoly, is swal-
lowing up every thing that is supposed to
come in competition with it. An applica-
tion is now being made to the Legislature
to lease the motive power on the Columbia
rail road, to one of its agents, under the
pretence that the State is now losing by it,
whereas the profits have been over $780,
900 the last year. The Miltonian enter
tans the opinion that but few have read
the law, and therefore can form no judg-
ment of it. We have not read it, we con-
fess, yet we presume, in common with our
citizens generally, we can judge Of its ef-
fects as well as some who have it constantly
before them.

0y TAvERNs IN PENNsyLvANIA.-The
Philadelphia Times contains list of Tav-
erns in each county in the State, taken
from the public records at Harrisburg. II
appears from this that the number of Tav-
erns in this county is As, or one to every
SO taxables; Union so, or one to every "a
taxables; Columbia 60, or one to every
1l2 taxables; Lycoming 81, or one to every
l04 taxables; Dauphin 80, or one to every
"a taxables; Schuylkill l6O, or one to
every 79 taxables; Berks 223, or one to
every Is taxables; Clearfeld has the small
est number in proportion to its taxables
and Pike county the largest. The number
in Clearfeld is 5, or one to every 514 taxa
bles; in Pike 35, or one to 81 taxables.-
These Pike fellows must be dry kind OF
fish to require tavern for every 81 tax
payers. Philadelphia city proper, has
574, or one to every ll2 taxables. The
whole number in the State is 1892, and
the average is about one to every 1lS taxa
bles. The object is to show that Philadel-
phia has fewer taverns than most of the
counties of the State, to accommodate the
public. The writer, however, forgets to
mention that, on an average, the Hotels in
Philadelphia are capable of accommodating
ten times as many persons as those in the
country.
