will sustain it, The argument in its favor is
Irresistible. Is it not plain that Philadelphia
cannot successfully continue to compete as a
seller with other cities that surpass her as a
senderP Merchants abroad prefer to buy in
New York OF Bal llimore, because thence they
can get direct transportation for their goods,
while here we have no steam lines, and, at cost
OF money and time, must send our manuiac-
lures to rival cities for expectation. And this,
too, at a time when the South is becoming the
great customer of the North when her people
want everything, and the competition to sell
is increasing every day. There never was
such an opportunity offered to Philadelphia to
recover her lost trade.
But now we are locked up. The waters of
the Delaware are wasted in the ocean. And
while we are idle the wharves of New York
are crowded with steamers, and its whole
river-front is a scene OF ceaseless activity.
Baltimore has four steamships to Liverpool;
she contemplates a line to Hamburg and to
Bremen; her steamers run regularly to New
Orleans and Savannah. We alone are idle.
Vessels with their rich freight pass Delaware
Bay as If it were the mouth Of a creek, and
we are not unlike the inhabitants of Yeddo,

Our State LegisIature-Its Duties and 1t
Privileges.

PRIVILEGES.
THERE assembled this morning at the State
Capital the Legislature which is to guide our
State through that depressing period which
always succeeds time of extraordinary ex.
citement. Our civil pollty, like the human
frame, must have depression in correspond
ence with the previous unusual exertions, and
1t is the gravest duty of a legislator to recu-
perate the strength of Commonwealth with
out the use of unwholesome tonics. Such
will be among the duties OF the members of
our State Legislature, and to successfully per-
form ii they must exercise discretion, possess.
ability, and have a talent and experience
which we greatly doubt whether they possess
The caucus nominations made yesterday were
of course unfavorable to Philadelphia. Mr..
JAMES KENNY, the nominee for Speaker
OF the II ouse, and whose election took place
this morning, is Of course, a member from
the country, while the old Clerk and his
assistants will without doubt be rechosen.
In the Senate the Speaker was elected last
year, so that the only officers are the Clerks,
all of whom Lave been elected. We hope
that honesty, devotion to State, not party in
terests, and an answering devotion to free
dom and duty, will be the characteristics OF
the session. The immortality and bribery
which has been too often prevalent in the
capital, can be checked if the members de-
sire. 1t is in their. own hands whether they
acquire the reputation OF respected, honora-
BILE legislators, or whether they be placed
upon the catalogue of their corrupt, dishonest,
worthless predecessors.
The issues which they will be called upon
to settle are Of vital interest to our State
II they but do their duty, protect our trade
and encourage our manufactures--if they put
forth the united influence Of our legislation in
favor of our rights, they will be able to guide
the State through this most onerous period of
reaction. If they fail to do right, and waste
their energies upon selfaggrandizement they
will blast the private character and seriously
injure the State. Let them decide Either
way is open to them, and it is for them to
choose which way is right.

IhE JdpdueSe CITY Oh 1ouuO was 1Or centu-
ries shut up from the world. The ships and
steamers of other countries never ruffled the
waters of the Bay of Yokuhama In the
words of Japanese author, the following
-, reasons are given for this seclusion :-"CoN-
FUCIUs never spoke of gain, wishing to
check the lust of it in its source. This also
was the reason why my ancestors cut off all
intercourse of foreign nations with Japan"
We are to infer from this that commerce is
supposed, even by the ignorant Japanese to
be source of wealth.
We are ashamed to write it, but no city in
the world with as magnificent a harbor, Ray
great population as Philadelphia possesses.
is as much like Yeddo. At this day, with the
Delaware spreading its deep and broad waters
the whole length of the city, with eight hun
dred thousand people crowdng its shores.
we are literally without direct communica-
tion with the other ports oil our own country.
A few lines form the exception, but this is
the rule, and New York and Baltimore con-
troll the steam coastwise trade of the Union.
Ibis disgrace is the greater, because Phila-
delphia at one time was as far superior to
New York in commerce as she is now in
manufactures. How we allowed the power
we possessed to pass away into weakness, it
would be useless to inquire; the question
forced upon us is whether we can regain it.
Certainly, if we would follow the Japanese,
and, like CoNFUcIUs, check the abuse of
wealth by dispensing with it altogether. we
had better continue the Indifference of the
past ten years; but if we believe that the citv
would be made happier by more prosperity.
we had better make sure that the present
effort to establish lines OF steamships to South
ern ports is successfully carried out A num-
Der OF our leading merchants have declared
that Philadelphia must lose her manufacturing
superiority, and cannot be developed in pro-
portion with other cities, unless she has ade-
quate means of transportation to aceommo-
date and increase her business. They have
held meetings, and appointed committees to
raise subscriptions, and have already obtained
upwards of 100000, for the purpose of Gre
ating lines to the principal ports of
the South. They are working for the
good OF the entire community. We believe
they have set themselves to this work as
shrewd business men, who want to make a
good Investment; but we also give them
credit Tor public spirit and civic pride. Their
plan is before the public, and it only remains
