Aa to the wint.of tpmityi'we have yet to b-ant that the blain'f requiyameau, of the Cohtiitution are to ba dispensed with oqt of courtesy to 0ov! Fairfield OMtrty body else, or that courtesy has any thing to do with the matter. If it had, there Boms' doubt whether any extraordinary courtesy ia 'dlft tb an Executive whose last official act was the appointment of Charles Greene to be Judge of Probate of Somerset -county, in place of Judge Farnsworth', Whose term would be out March, and who undoubtedly resigned by aome private arrangement between tho parties, for the purpose Of giving Gov, Fairfield and hia Council a chance to fill the vacancy fur aeven years to come s.tlina by an unworthy atratagem seizing on an ejrecotive 'appointment which rightfully belonged to his successor, There is no mistake about it We have not heard it pre tended that Judge Farnsworth had reason whatever for that of giving the office to Mr. Greenes and the Governor and Council, understanding the matter lully, lent their aid in thia scurvy trick to defeat the will of the people of Somerset and of the State. Now suppose there had been no Whig majori' ty in the Senate, but that the parties were e-qullly divided, and Mj. Vose had been, as he is, President of that body, and having become Governor in virtue thereof, he should have refused to take his place in the Governor's chair, but insisted upon remaining in the Senate, so as to secure a majority of one vote for Mr.

Kent would the friends ol Gov. Fairfield have consented to let Mr. Vose remain in the Senate, or nut? Will the Age answer tliia? had Mr. Voee continued to act as President of tlie Senate, would his administration of the oath of office toGnvornor Kent have been constitutional? Would it have made him Governor, or would a healing act have been necessary? At the moment, Mr. Vose would in foot, been Governor, and not President of the Senate; and, therefore, as the Constitution rrquircs the oath to be adininislt red by the President of the Senate, it would not have been valid.

Bui it is said there was want of courtesy in the manner ol going to the Council Chamber that Guv Fairfield wus taken by surprise. This, too, is an error. The Governor and Council were apprised by message of the proceedings in the Senate before Mr. Vote went in. Kennebec Jontnal.

4. ALLEN COUNSELLOR AT LAW. Offlc tormerlv oeeopied by Hne rr. over Urn EASTERN BANK, Weal Bangor, Bee. 1 7.

Wr1 I BA.1GOR FRIDAY, JANUARY 1841. HOUSE OF CORRECTION. The Grand Jury the County of Essex, Massachusetts, hire made a presentment of the House of Correction in that County, as utterly unsuiled to the wants and necessities of the County. They say of the establishment, that the house, so called which is only fifty Tty thirty-two feel, and every way inconvenient a yard enclosed by fencea a shoe maker's shop, twenty by twelve feet and a small building, used as a wash house, comprise the whole ea- tablishment. The house contains only twenty four sleeping cells for men, in the two lower stories and four rooms for women in the attic story.

And the establishment thus described by the Grand Jury they think, and vety justly, is en-tirely insufficient for keeping, correcting, governing and employing of the subjects committed thereto. We notiee thia presentment of the Gtand Jury in another State in order to call attention to the fact that in the County of Penobscot the case is still worse. Oar laws conlempftte the establishment ol a House of Correction for the purpose of Inforcing a healthful, rural and penetrating discipline, but the law is evaded or utterly neglected. We have frequently called attention to it, shown the necessity, in this County of a House of Correction, but, we ere ashamed to confess to but little purpose. The community seem to sleep on as though a moral reformation in the young, who have once transgressed the law, was not worth a thought or an effort Female offenders, also, destructive as their influence in crime is, are exposed to the worst features of prison discipline, without a well conducted House of Correction.

Reformation oi offenders, of either sex. is not secured, nor can it be expected under our present system of having the county jail christened a House of Correction, instead ol having what is imperously demanded an establishment where the convicts may be subjected to a moral discipline and to suitable habits of indaslry. By and by will appear corruption, debtse-ment and high handed wickedness enough to freeze the heart and blanch every cheek The elements are at work. The seeds are being town, and ere long, the rank plants of pollution will bad and blossom to the disgrace and discomfeilure of many families We like Grand Jurors exercise their rights, and discharge their duties according to their oath, and nut according to lire movements of the Attorney in attendance, or instraclions from any quarter. A Grand Jury ia the most independent legal body in existence.

The rights of a Grand Jury are to be gathered from their oath. The annexed extract from an old treatise on that oath, contains the irueexpret-aion of should be carefully noted by those who may have occasion to serve aa Grand Jurors Nothing can be more plain and express than the Grand Juror's oath. He is not to search the law books, nor to tumble over old records for an explanation of it. Our grealrst lawyers and learned judge may from hence learn mere certainly our ancient law in this case than from all the book in their libraries. The language wherein the oath is penned is known and un derstood by every man, and the words io it have the same signification as they have wheresoever elee they are nted.

The judges, without as taming to themselves legislative power, cannot pat a new sense on them other than according to tbeir general common meaning. They can-not magisterially impose their opinions on the jnry and make them forsake the rect words of their -oath to pursue their glosses. The Grand Jury are bound to observe alike strictly every part of the oath and to use all just and proper ways which may enable them to perform it otherwise it were to say that after men bad sworn to enquire after the Unlh according to tho best of lhair they were bound to forsake all the natural and proper means which their understandings may suggest for the discovery of it, if it be commanded by the Lot any Grand Jury but examine the law, making it lb duty of County Commissioners to eatoWiob Hoaoo- of Correction, and then turn tbeir attention to the evasion ol this law by making I be uumutou jOal-auehe House, and we think they will at once egrpe to present the Who! matter as a sobjeet lion of our (tsrts; nod of the publi. i i Cf Tbt damage done to the Dam In New York, by the lat freshet, is estimated a from $40,000 to $50,000, and tb town, eunnty and individual loss of property the Croton river, ivestimated at $500,000. crito Boston MiJ elicit ao the esody.

of the State, of Maine, for the' current political year, reported this morning, llial the Committee had attended to the duty assigned them, and that he had signified his acceptance ol the office and, would take and subscribe the necessary oaths of office whenever a Convention of the two Houses should lie funned for that purpose. At 12 o'clock a Convention was formed, the Governor elect came in accompanied by the soling Governor th Secretary Slate -the Executive Council, and the Sheriff of Kennebec, gnd in the presence of the Convention of the two Houses, look and subscribed the necessary oaths to quality him to enter on the discharge of the duties ol his office. The oaths were administered by the Hon. J. Eaton, President, pro tenp, of the Senate.

The Secretary of Slate then made the usual proclamation That Edward Kent is Governor and Commander-in-Chief of the Stale of Maine. After which the Go vet nor retired and the Convention dissolved. To-morrow at 1 1 oclock ha been assigned for the choice ol a Secretary of State, and seven Councillors to advise the Governor in the Executive Department of the Government. The Whig Members oi the Legislature have agreed on Samuel Benson, Esq. of Win-throp, for their candidate for Secretary of State, an) Joseph Dane of Kennebunk, for Council-' lor of York County David Dunlap of Brunswick, for Cumberland William Singer oi Tboinaaton, for Lincoln-r-Joseph H.

Underwood of Fayette lor Kennebec Benj. Bradford of Livermore, for Oxford and Somerset Elias Dudley of Hampden, for Penobscot and Washington, and C. Johnson of Belfast, for Waldo and Hancock. Yours, L. THE FRESHET.

The freshet in New-Jersey has been most aw tul and tremendons. Four of the aix bridges over (he Passaic river, near Newark, have been swept away. In all parts ofNew-Jersey, bridges, mills and mill dams have been carried away. In Maunch Chunk on the Lehigh, the damage has been very great. The town was all afloat.

The Philadelphia correspondent of the N. Yoik Courier states, that the mighty torrent was running the whole width of Main street some six feet deep. Whole houses were passing down tbe Lehigh all the saw mills had gone two large stone stables at the hotel, also gone, with bridges, and all the canal locks. Out ol 20 houses from Squire Sayres to Leighton, but four remain, and very many of the inmates gone with them. Those who heard them, say their shrieks for help were most appalling; every ac count growing more dreadlul the river is i clear stream reaching Iroin mountain to mountain.

Congress On Thursday, in the Senate, a great number of memorials and petitions were presented upon various subjects. A joint reso lution was passed to present to universities and college copies of the catalogue of the library of Congress. The pre-emption bill was then taken up and disenssed nnlil the hoar of ad journment. In the-HousK, on motion of Mr. Fillmore, the contested election case was postponed till Mon day, owing to the indisposition of Mr.

Naylor Tbe Speaker laid before, the House several com mnnication from the heads ol departments which were laid on Die table, and ordered to be printed. Mr. W. Thompson, from the committee, of military affairs a bill providing for the payment of the Stale of Maine lor sir vices her militia which was read a first and second time, and committed. Mr.

Monroe, from the same committee, re ported a bill to found a military asylum lor the relief and aupport of invalid soldiers of the ar my of th United States, which was read a Aral and second lime and oommitled.

Senator At a meeting of tho-Whig members of the Legislature, held on Monday evening, the Hon. Isaac C.

Bates was romi-nated as the candidate, for Senator of the United States, in place of Hon. John Davis, resigned! We have heard some inquiry how it happened that, in balloting for Governor, in the House, Mr. Fairfield had more votes than Mr. Kent. The reason is simple.

Nearly all the Whigs voted for Edward Kent and John Fairfield, while some of the Van Buren members voted for Fairfield alone, or for Fairfield and Hamlin Wq thought (hat, as the votes of the people were nearly all lor Kent and Fairfield, these ought to be the two candidates returned by the House; but it seems a few members thought differently, and voted for a man who, it is presumed, did not receive a single vote for Governor from the people. Kennebec Journal. The launch of the steam frigate Missouri, at the Navy Yard in Brooklyn, on Thursday, created quite an excitement in New York, and thousands went over to see the shew. The noble vessel slid off beautifully. Thia vessel was commenced in July, 1839, and is said tu be the finest steam-ship of war that The New York Herald says: In the launch of this vessel, the first real steam trigate our government ever built, we see another developement of the series ol important movements making in this city to steam-hips.

Already we have shown that we can bndd war or commercial steamers equal to the English, and even superior. One large packet company are now making arrangements for constructing four steam-ships of 2000 Inns each the progress they have made we shall soon learn. Those enterprising merchants and captains, Stephen snd Russell Glover, in conjunction with Mr. Eriesun, a skillful mechanic and mnn of science, are about to fit up the Clarion, a vessel of 250 tons, with a traverse prnpellor and steam engines, on a new construction If this succeeds, which is very possible, we can thus convert 100 of our packet ships into ships of war, in the space of six months, and thus pul to sea a steam navy that would be superior to any in the world. Of the nee.essity and importance of this all can judge who look at the troubled state of the times the border difficulties the Caroline question the boundary troubles the menacing tones of France the war mania of Mehe-met Ali; and 'particularly the rapid strides which Great Britain is making for empire, not only in China, but all over the world.

Let our public functionaries think of these, and keep their eyes open. Patent Steam Ergiiie During the last three weeks we have been working our printing machines, made by Napier, London, by a three horse power patent steam engine, the first of Ihe kind manufactured at the steam carriage works of Messrs. J. W. Rogers Co.

Newcomen Bridges Mills, North Strand, partners of Sir James Anderson, Bart, the boiler being en the same principle as that nsed in Sir James steam carriages for common roads. A plate ol cast metal, four feet long by two feet broad, placed upon a frame of timbry ao aa to allow a free passage of air underneath, supports the entire engine and boiler, occupying altogether a space of four feet by two feet in the machine room. The boiler is not set in brick, hut ap peart like a atove, tastefully ornamented at lop by an open scroll work, and the engine, which is supported by a handsome framing, has neither a beam or extraneous work ol any kind, and is so simple in its construction, that it ean scarcely go out of order. When we describe an engine of three horse power, occupying boiler and all, less space than the table on which we write, the vast advantage to many on that core alone will be manifest, but it economy is even more remarkable; from four to aix pence covers all expenses of fuel for each publication, which occupies about two hour and a halt. It is fully capable of striking off from fifty to sixty copies per minole, and we may add the extraordinary (act that steam is got up and the engine in full work, within fifteen minute from the time of lighting the fire.

We are anxious to give publicity to this, knowing thit many persons are deterred Iroin the use ef steam power In consequence of the great apace occupied. A machine like thia can be erected in any room, boarded or otherwise, without the slightest danger, a tact which matt enchanc its advantage Sounder's New Letter, Dublin. COURTESY vaTHE CONSTITUTION. The Age find fault with the President of the Senate tor going into Ihe Connoil Cluniberand acting is Governor on Tuesday, and thinks the act enceurteons. As to the question of eooitoty wo leave that to be determined by those who have higher pretension to decide on conventional usages among gentlemen: but we take it there i no doubt about the provision ol tbe Constitn-lion opon this point.

The Governor is elected lor one year, and has no authority to do any of ftolal act after the expiration of the year. When not re-elected, be usually waits until hisaaccee-oor appears and ia inaugurated. Bat in thia cite np sucoeseor waa elected by tb people. After tt vote of Both Houses sroepliog tbe report of tl committee appointed lo coonl the votes for Governor, it is clear that the office of Governor was vacant, The term of last years Govrmnr had expired, and 1 new on wae not elected. By article 5, Part 1st, 8ee.

The editor of the Exeter News Letltr gives the following account of the dangers to which himsell and others were exposed in a recent rail road trip Iron Exeter to Boston. About a mile nnd a half from the Haverhill depot, the Rail Road passes over a creek atjlie height of about 25 feet from the bed of the brouk. In the construction ol the road, a channel or culvert lind been provided lor the passage of the water; but the fieehet of Thursday night had swept the whole gravel, timber, stone, and rail entirely away leaving a yawning gulf, about 90 feet across, and between 20 and 30 feel deep, directly in our track The fog being densy, it waa impossible to see lar ahead.

The engineer first perceived the chasm when within six or seven rods of it. Believing it impossible s-asnnably to reverse or check the motion of the Engine and also that the passengers could go down that gulf quite as well without an Engineer as with one, he sprung from his post to the bank, and was instantly followed by the Fireman. One of the passengers, standing in the door and seeing thnse-men leaping to the ground, followed their example and he was in turn lollowed by two others ol the passengers nearest to the door. Those of us who were not apprized of the danger, Imd no time to inquire into it. before tho Loco-motive had gone over the brow of the precipice, and carried with it the car in which we were sitting.

Tlie passengers were thrown all together, snd with great force, against the fore part of the car, and aome of them, at least, were stunned tor a moment, as wrll as bruised, by the violence ol the concussion. The Engine reached the bottom of the gull or near it, and much broken and injured in the descent. The car following tlie Engine was slopped by it without reaching the water, and what was very femorkable, without overturn ing. Tbe passengers who remained in it, gath-ered themselves up as soon as posa ble, and, one by one. made their escape.

On reaching the brow of the hill looking npon ihe wreck below ns contemplating (be danger to which we bad been exposed, and ascertaining that none lost, we could not but feel that our preservation was owing to the interposition ol One whose haAd can arrest the lightning in its speed and the steam in its ppwer, and whose mercendurelh forever. The newspapers assure us that the passengers escaped unhurt. This is not exactly true. We have plenary and feeling if not ealitfaclo-ry evidence to the contrary. One had his thumb dislocated one was injured in the forehead, one in tbe arm.onn in the leg, two In the side.

All, however, were able to walk back to Haver, hill, and, indeed, hardly discovered that they had been braised at all until they arrived tlieie. Totb Agent of Mrs. Gardnora Indian llalaam of Liv erwort. Thebciwof tbi. will par you for the three dozen of thj Balsam of Liverwort 1 have retailed.
