Har The following is the substance of the
letter which was written by Mr.. BUCHANAN to
Col. HENRY S. Morn, President of the Board
of Canal Commissioners, in favor of Col For
NEY for United States Senator This letter
d" did the business" The letter says -
AS my position on the subject of eectina
a United States Senator may be misunderstood, |
beg you to say to my friends, that Col JoHN
W. FoRNEY, in my opinion, will best serve my
administration of all those named, and / will
feel complimented and obliged for the votes of
my friends in his favor for that Office Mr..
ROBBINS. Mr. BLACK and so on, are very fair
men, but Col. FoRNEY's ci0ims are far superior
to those of all others JAS BUCHANAN"

PENNSYLVANIA LEGISLATURE.

A protest was presented in the Senate on
the l4th inst, against the election of General
Cameron, because he did not receive CONCUR
rent majority in each House, and because the
Senate failed to comply with the law requiring
the appointment of a Teller, and the nomina-
tion of candidates on the day before the meet
ing Of the Convention. The protest was sign
ed by fourteen Senators. The consideration
of the matter was postponed in consequence of
the absence of Mr.. Browne. 4 similar pro-
test was presented in the House and debated
warmly. 1t was placed upon the journals by
a strict party vote.
The Senate was not in session on the l6th
having adjourned over till Monday.
In the House, Mr.. EYsrER offered a series
of resolutions, instructing our Senators, and re-
questing our Representatives in Congress to
vote for the admission of Kansas as a free
State. He moved a reference to special
committee, but subsequently accepted an
amendment that they be referred to the Judi
ciary Committee. The motion to refer was
then lost by party vote-Yeas 42, nays so
The House then adjourned to meet on Mon
day at | o'clock.
The Democratic caucus nominated HENRY
S. MAGRAw for State Treasurer by acclamation
There were a number absent, and among them
all the late boilers.

p0r Gov BrssELL of Illinois, has taken his
seat as the Governor of that State in spite Of
the learned opinions Of bis opponents that hav
ing accepted q challenge to a duel from Sena-
tor Davis, of Mississippi, he is barred from
holding Office, as the constitution Of Illinois de-
prives duellists of that right. Gov. Bissell
says the constitutional provision applies only
to a person who violated the law within the
State of Illinois That acts of his committed
in other States, or in Washington city, do not
come within the jurisdiction of the State OF
Illinois, 1t follows, as matter of course,
that if the State has not jurisdiction, it cannot
punish The Governors view of the matter is
common sense, and is, doubtless, the legal view
also

ELECTION OF u. q. SENATOR.

s The result of the election for United States
Senator, which took place at Harrisburg on the
18th inst, and the selection Of General CANE
RON over the caucus nominee of the Democratic
party, has created more excitement than any
thing we have noticed for some time.
1t was very generally understood that Mr..
FoRNEY, the nominee Of the Democratic caucus,
was in great danger, and those who were
watching the course of events, were entirely
convinced, that, let who would succeed, Mr..
FoRNEY would be defeated. We were not the
advocate of the election of General CAMERON
yet, we do not hesitate to say, that we are moi
only entirely satisfied with the result, bat that
We rejoice with all right-thinking men upon
the first indication of just retribution, which
we have felt sure would follow that party
which has elected it's candidate for the Presi-
dency by fraud, and which is doing SO much to
demoralze US as q people.
The rebuke administered to the so-called De
mocratic party, by the defeat of its caucus no.
minee, aud especially by the defeat Of the cho-
sen candidate of Mr. BUCHANAN, is, indeed,
significant and argues that however much po-
litical corruption and villainy may succeed for
time, the day of reckoning is just as sure to
follow, as that party prostitutes itself to the
vile aud fraudulent purposes which has so dis
tinguished the democratic party in Pennsylvania
for the last six months. Mr.. FoRNEY was the
captain of the Democratic forces in PennSylva-
mia during the late campaign under his aus
pices, by his direction, doubtless through his
procurement and at his instgation, system of
fraud was inaugurated and carried out in the
State, which was so horrible in its conception,
so bold in its effrontery, and so subversiye in
its results of the cherished institutions of our
country, that good men everywhere stood
aghast and trembled with fear for the safety
of government which could be controlled by
such influences of fraud and corruption as cha
racterised the last election. 1t is meet that
the retribution due to such conduct should fall
Immediately on its chief author, and when the
caucus nominee of the so-caled Democracy
looks back upon the glittering cup which was
presented to his lips, but to be snatched away,
let him remember, for his party, that even ill
politics, honesty is the best policy.
The fact that Mr. BUCHANAN entered into
this contest personally that Mr.. FoRsEY was
his own candidate, and that he used, in every
possible manner, his influence to secure his
election, without success, is most significant,
and the result affords rebuke to him in addi-
ton to that given to his party, for its villainy
throughout the last campaign, which will not
fail, we trust, to be productive of important
results

4 CANE roR SENATOR SuMNER.-Gov. Ro-
hinson of Kansas who passed through this ci
ty for the East on Friday night, bore with
him a beautiful cane from Major Bickcrton,
one of the Frec-Statc prisoners, for Senator
Sumner. The cane was wrought by the Ma
.jor's own hands, during his Imprisonment at
Lecompton, and the device is peculiarly appro-
pirate and significant, the whole being carved
from solid piece Of wood and highly polish
cd upon it are 8 artificial knots, | ) of which
are within the coils Of serpent, representing
the l5 States cnslaved and l6 without its
coils, representing the Free States and as
the serpent Slavery is still reaching after
more States around which to coil itself, the Ge
MUS of Liberty grasps him around the neck,
and says, Thus far thou hast gone, but no
" farther canst thou go !" forming the head Of

In the House the Tariff bill was discussed

DISEASE AMONG Hoes The disease among
hogs is even worse now than it has been at
any time previous One of our distiIlers a
few mornings since threw out forty which had
died during tho night and We understand that
the same man has lost twenty-five since.-
There seems to be no means of arresting the
disease, aud when the hogs are once attacked
the disease is conveyed from pen to pen, car
rying off nearly every one which is attacked
with it. Several thousand hogs have died in
this ncighborhood within a short Zine, and the
disease is still raging Every one is fearful of
purchasing pork which has been killed, appa-
rcnty well The losses to distiIlers will be
immense. We are not aware that the disease
has ever prevailed here before. and for the sake
OF our business men, it is to be hoped that it
never will again. EaaOniaa.

REvoLT OF CONvICrs-TROURLE At Auburn
STATE PRISoH.-A gentleman from Auburn III
forms us that a revolt has occurred in the Stale
Prison in that city, which has caused great eX-
citement, and though suppressed for the pre-

The difficulty occurred in the machine shop,
where the work of the convicts is contracted.
Mr. Curtis, contractor, on Saturday directed
a convict to do piece of work. The man re.
piled that " he would see Mr.. c. ID first"
The disobedicnt man was arrested and put in
to dungeon, where he remained over Sunday.
On Monday morning some sixty convicts in the
machine shop gathered hammers and other
tools, and formed circle ready for fight.
The contractor came in and inquired what
was going on Some of the prisoners replied
they were holding a town meeting, and wanted
70 know how he would vote He withdrew
without further parlcy \ committee of the
prisoners was then sent to demand the instant
release of the man confined in the dungeon
The committee did not return as soon as was
expected, so the whole body armed themselves
with what tools they could get and marched
TO the hospital.
The prisoner was released, and his fellow
convicts resumed labor. Yesterday things were
quiet, but the Auburn Guards were ordered to
hold themselves in readiness TO come to the
rescue at q moments notice, rs further trouble
was Anticipated This yielding by the prison
officers will give the couvicts new courage and
