ITie Whig journals' are. boasting of the elec tion of Simon Cameron, as Senator of the Uni ted States from Pennsylvania, a nominal demo crat, pledged, it is said, to the support of : Whig measures. One of these journals says thai Mr. Cameron is fa; favor of Mr.v Clay's project of distributing among the States the income of the public lands ; another, that he is decidedly for keeping the "tariff as it is another, that he will supporti Wbig measujes in j general; jWe very little doubt that they Wre all in the right.1 There Is no State, the people; of which are worse treated by their representatives in the Legislature, than ( Pennsylvania. Whenever any act of political roguery is to be done, it gen erally happens almost ; invariably that instru ments are found in the Legislature to do it. . In the present case, the party which held the: as cendancy in the State, was to be cheated by electing to the U. S. Senate, a man who would act with their political adversaries. A conser vative, who, it was discovered, had a dozen of friends in the Legislature, being taken up fbr this purpose there were found a sufficient num ber ot democratic members of easy political vir- x nejrcnnsyivanian, says: regret that we MV wouU Jirect public attention tu iLe aJ-verti-em?!it in to-day's paper, he-.iJed Insur. ance ftgai" Lia.by re.'

A circumstance attending the close of the late session of the enate of the United States jdeserves notice as a departure from usase, the reason for which is nor. nnn. rent. It has been the custom for the Vice tnc 6round of the vote of our Senators a- President ol the United States, when sit- gainst taking up the bill." given themselves up, with the ap pro val of Congress, to this mode of settle ment, it was not to be- treated with coni tempt. It should at least be brought to a close before- aimore summary mode was restored to. And this weunderstand was ting asj President of the Senate, to with draw from the chair before .the close of each session, in time to allow the Senate the opportunity of making choice of a Pre sident pro tempore, who holds over to the following session, and resumes the Chair f We arc, and have been ever since the fa. mobs evacuation of the Rt. Hon. Lord Pau Lt, by order of Admiral Thomas, in a quiet and prosperous state, politically speaking. The Government has become consolidated, and, with tbej assistance of the foreigners who have taken the oath of allegiance, and hold offices under the Crown, is carried on in a firm manner. Many of the intelligent class of foreigners here, how. eer, fear that they are going on too fast ; that the officers of Government devote more time ad money in making an appearance of power than in attending to the vital interests of the country, promoting agriculture and commerce." Tbe new IT. States frigate Savannah, Capt. AjuksTsoNo, arrived at Honolulu on the 25th September, from Hilo, which port she reached on the 31st August. She remained at the last named port seventeen days ; herr visit seems to have given great delight to theJnhabitants, in consequence of the urbanity and politeness of her officers and crew. . at its commpjippmpnt.' shnnlrl th President be absent on the day of meet ing. The reason of this custom undoubt edly isjto add another life to the security? against an interregnum in the Executive Department, the act of Congress which relates j to the subject declaring that in caseofj removal,, death, resignation, or in ability (both of the President and Vice Pre sident 01 the United States, the President pro tempore of the Senatehdfinc&se there shall be no President of the Senate, then the Speaker of the House of Representa tives for the time bei njr, shall act as Pre- ! sident of the United States until the disa bility be removed or a President of the Uni ted States elected. The office of Speaker of the House of Representatives ceases at! the termination of each Congress. In the contingency f the death, &c. of both the President and Vice President, in the re cess following the expiration of a term of oongresv the omce of President of the United States must, therefore, unless there be a President jpro tempore of the Senate, remain vacant until there can - be a new election of President by the People. Hence the usage to which we refer. . : This jusage was not regarded by the Vice. President of the United States at the late extra session of the Senate.
