Six months of unremitting solitary confinement on bread and water would coat the stale less and be calculated to produce greater reformation in the moral Sand hib its of the convicts than three years labour in any Money making concern in the Western country.

On our first Page will be found some additional european intelligence confirming our former accounts of the successes of the greeks Over their blood stained oppressors. We Hope soon to have the pleasure of com Munica Ting to our readers that this interesting injured and neglected people have of it was considered very pro accomplished their great work of personal finale. Or. Hawes estimated the annual a la the a hmm fishery in the jew wow to new Bedford alone at 8500 too exclusive of the profits arising from the manufacturing of sperm Aceti candles. The capital is estimated at 8850,000. The bids of some of the ships employed in the Pacific Ocean was As High As 802,000 or 833,000. Sperm Aceti Oil was generally from 80 to 100 cents sea elephant from 45 to 50, and right whale or Black Oil from so to 35 cents per gallon.

Hawes old store House sold considerably exceed those of new bed Liberty and National Independence. Ohio . Our last Columbus papers contain a Laboured report of a committee appointed to examine into the condition of the Ohio Penitentiary which from the report ought to be denominated the slate manufactory. The committee say the following exhibit it is believed shews very nearly the True state of the concerns a to wit or. Manufactured articles bedding amp a. From Kif often and Thomas 81.2,71.4 57 amount drawn from Treasury 7,994 20 the lies Law. This singular and almost inexplicable Law the first fruit of partial legislation in Ohio will be found in the preceding columns of this paper. It is sincerely to be regretted that a measure of so much importance to the master builders and chief mechanics of Cincinnati had not been inure attentively considered and matured before it was presented to the general Assembly for the Sanction and authority of Law. That every class of our citizens Are entitled to the guardian care and Protection of the legislature and that mechanics in particular who bestow their labour and limited funds on object a of necessary the private importance should receive All the Protection from fraud and misfortune which municipal regulations can give no one of common understanding will deny. But when it is attempted by legislative provisions to secure to a particular class of citizens privileges and advantages not allowed to others it becomes of the utmost importance that the terms of these provisions should be such As the most Ordinary capacity can comprehend without the Haz Zard of mistake. The present Law we consider objectionable for its uncertainty and the numerous and complicated conditions with which it abounds calculated More to produce litigation and controversy than to promote the interests and Security of mechanics. We have not time at present critically to examine it in All its details but shall take occasion hereafter to make such comments on the different sections and provisions of this act As we May think the subject the mean time we would advise All mechanics who intend he Uii a read it with the closest attention and reflect Well upon the consequences of an implicit Confidence and Reliance upon it for Security. That we Del is now stated to have accrued his predictions were satirized by or. Randolph and or. Baldwin. The Secretary makes just remarks As to the Incon Clusin Wessof custom House documents and the apparent balance of Trade in relation to the increase or decrease of National wealth and Prosperity. The fallacy of reasoning from them abstractly had been often before exposed but As it is easy and plausible it will continue to be employed to satiety. In the report the increase of the Revenue is the Only ground upon which the enhancement of the Tariff is recommended. A Secretary of the Treasury has properly nothing to do with any other consideration. If there was a design on his part to conciliate what is called the manufacturing interest or rather the few who make so much clamor in the name of that interest he will be found to have failed of his end. Their Maxim is All or nothing. The presidents 44satisfied i am and a satisfied i likewise am a miscarried with them. Those prospective computations which occupy so much space in our Treasury reports and extend to the distance of several years Are More or less illusory in the course of human affairs generally in the growth of such an Empire As this Union emergencies Are to be expected which must prevent what is flattering by anticipated and augment the wants White they May diminish the resources of the Treasury. We have no idea nor can the Secretary seriously suppose that the pub lie expenditure of the United states will Ever consistently with the National interest and As Long As any degree of sense and liberality survives in the National councils be diminished to the extent of the sinking fond which is at present ten million of dollars. At the same time looking to the constant Domestic accumulation of Stock in the political sense of economists to the certain unequalled multiplication of our numbers to the gradual natural Extension of Domestic manufactures to the intelligence ingenuity and Enterprise of the american character we do not Douro that the Means of the nation will be amplified so As to prove adequate to any exigencies which May arise in the Vicissitudes and disorders that Are universally incident to the concerns of 9tates, and particularly to be apprehended in the present situation of the world. We proceed however upon the supposition that Commerce will be protected by the government against the hostilities of jealous interest the misapplication of mischievous foreign examples and the proneness of men holding or seeking High places to make concessions for the Sake of acquiring or retaining a partial Commerce has among us enemies to be feared not on account of their multitude of the r Tal e its or thei r i and i Vid Ual i n.

The following paragraph from a her i Burgh Penn paper is going the rounds of most of the newspapers in the Union to the no Small amusement of the people. Ford Ard ail he Nantucket ships except one were in the Pacific Ocean he estimated the annual value of the fisheries in the Pacific. Ocean to Nantucket and new Bedford atone at 81 �00000, and the Oil and Bone which had been brought to both places since the last War exceeded 86,000,000, and that the number of seamen employed was 2300. He also stated that there were three Fine ships from Martha a Vineyard employed in this fishery that sea elephants had been found in abundance on. The coast of California and cod. To answer to one of the queries which or. Baylies had addressed to him respecting the number of mechanics to whom this business gave employment he said he did not know that he should operate if he said that it gave employment to All the mechanics if both Placas Ami he expressed his conviction hat in his estimate of the value of this fishery he had. Not exceeded the truth. He said that the whale fishery in the South Pacific was failing and that in future they must look to the North Pacific for successful fishing where there were sperm Aceti whales right whales and sea elephants in great abundance. He concludes his letter thus a a set tie mint at. The Columbia Hiver if pro Perly conducted would insure to our nation an immense source of wealth. A company of traders and navigators there settled might have a mail Leaseta from 100 to 150 tons with these vessels at Home they could explore the coast and each fishery could be pursued in its proper a Eazor.

Dec. 14. In our Home of representative yesterday a message was received from the governor accompanied by a letter tenths then acting Gor Ernol if Ohio offering to Exchange a reap of that state Lor a map of Pennsylvania ? the letter of the acting governor of a by a letter from the then acting Gorer Nolif Ohio off Nosy Iio a j Dis if mag nature of the proposition to Exchange a single map Ohio excited general laughter in the House not from any disrespect to him or the state of which he was the chief magistrate but from the trifling and trafficking of one state for that of the other., As if both were to much exhausted in finances to pay a few Mars for a map and As. If it were not beneath the dignity of two great states to be thus converting themselves into Petty stationers to barter and Trade in paper and my. 821,435 81 the committee further state that a a under the present defective organization there Are difficulties in effecting a Well regulated police a and that m the internal Economy is As Good As the circumstances considered the most sanguine ought to antics Pate that order and regularity appear to prevail i and that wholesome regulations and Good discipline appear to be a classification of the convicts according to the character of their crimes is recommended and considered necessary to promote the humane objects of the institution and Quot it is with much satisfaction the committee has. Witnessed the introduction of spinning and weaving into the Penitentiary a which with other branches of profitable labour they think will 44 soon enable the institution to support and to conclude they recommend an appropriation of �300 for clerk hire a that m the assistant keepers and guard take an oath or affirmation a but for what purpose is not mentioned that a Bell should be purchased 44 to be used Only in cases of fire insurrections of the convicts or escapes and if such Petty dealing has been authorised by the legislature of Ohio it is time the people knew it that they May in future elect members whose conduct will comport better with the dignity and character of the state. If Ohio must play the fool let us not extend our Folly beyond the boundaries of our own territory. As the legislature have made no provision for making their acts and resolutions known to the great mass of our citizens it is very possible a Resolution authorising this state traffic in maps May have been adopted and the acting governor compelled to make known to other states the ridiculous parsimony of Ohio. If the general Assembly have a Quantity of surplus maps on hand and have not liberality enough to present one to each of the United states we would recommend a Sale of them at auction in lots to suit purchasers. Such a course would be As dignified and comport As Welt with the sentiments of the Public As the auction Sale of the site of fort Washington in Cincinnati Cut up into Small building lots by order of the Secretary of the Treasury of the United states we Hope for the Honor of Ohio we shall hear no More of a barter Trade with Oiler states. From the National Gazette. We have inserted the annual treaty report in. Our second Page. It in a very interesting document and quite intelligible.
