Never full, pack 'cm in;
Move up, fat men; squeeze in, tbin;
Trunks, valises, boxes, bundles,

Market-bankets without number,
Owners easy, nod in Blumbcr;
Thirty seated, forty standing.
A dozen or more on either landing.
Old man lifts his signal finger,
Car slacks np, but not a linger,
He's jerked aboard by sleeve or shoulder,
Shoved inside to sweat and smoulder;
Toes are trod on, hats are smashed,
Dresses soiled, hoop-skirts crashed.
Thieves ftre busy, bent on plunder;
Still we rattle on like thunder.
Tacked together unwashed bodies,
Bathed in fumes of whisky-toddies,
Tobacco, garlic, cheese, and lager bier
Terfume the heated atmosphere;
Old boots, pipes, leather, and tan,
And, if in luck, a "soap-fat" man.
Aren't we jolly ? What a blessing !
A horse-car hash, with such a dressing!

THE L O UIS YILLE CA XA L.
Frovx the Chicago Tribune.
The Louisville and Portland Canal cost
about $5,000,000. The United States owns
all the stock save three shares. The canal
ceased many years ago to pay interest upon
its cost. The managers, therefore, proposed
to enlarge it and improve it, with the hope
of increasing its business, and Congress was
induced to vote the entire earnings of the
canal to reimburse the cost of tbo enlarge
ment. A debt of $ 1,J00,0()0 was incurred by
those engaged in the work; but the business
of the canal continued to decrease, until its
annual earnings are not more than equal
to the cost of repairs and management.
It will require $1,200,000 to complete
the work, of which $1,000,000 has already
been handed over by the Secretary of War
for that purpose. The cities of Cincinnati
and Louisville are clamoring t9 have the
Government complete the enlargement, and,
of course, pay the outstanding debt of
tl,!00,000, with several years' accumulated
interest. We see that Mr. Senator Sherman,
of Ohio, Las reported in favor of taking
!f 2."0,000 of the revenue collected from ex
cessive taxation, and sqaundering it on
this canal abortion, and that the House Com
mittee on Commerce has made a similar re
commendation. We hope there is enough in
tegrity in one or the other house to arrest
this waste of money. We do not believe that
this appropriation for this canal could get a re
spectable numerical vote in either house, if
it stood alone, but it is made an item in a
combination of other measures equally un
justifiable, and members, are thus, for
local considerations, induced to vote
this money. The Louisville and Port
land Canal served its purpose until rail
roads carried oil' the once extensive
commerce of the Ohio river. Enlarging the
canal will not increase the number of boats
on the river. The trouble is not in the di
mensions of the canal, but in the falling oil'
of the number of boats requiring it. No
trade is lost on account of the size of the
canal, and no enlargement of it will induce
men to build boats for which there is no
business. There is a railroad bridge over the
river, connecting Kentucky and Indiana, and
that tells the whole story why the revenues
of the canal do not pay the expense f main
taining it.
The folly of this expenditure is shown in
the fact that Congress has already voted the
entire revenues of the canal to any person
who will improve it and enlarge it, and no
one will take them. Tho revenues of the
canal, when enlarged, will not pay the inter
est on the additional expenditure; and when
it was proposed some time ago to make a free
grant of the whole work to the Board of
Trade of Louisville, there was a vehement
protest from that body, and from all others
along the river, declaring that the canal was
not and never would be able to reimburse the
cost of improving it. In the face of this
candid acknowledgment Congress is now
asked to vote the money to complete the
work, and, as proprietor, assume the debt of
$1, (100,000 already expended and lost.
All the legislation needed is a joint resolu
tion authorizing the Secretary of War to cede
and convey to tho State of Kentucky, or to
the city of Louisville or Cincinnati, or all of
them, all the right, interest,
and property of tho United
States in and to- that canal, with
authority to levy and collect tolls to reim
burse whatever sums may be expended in
keeping the same in repair, or in enlarging,
or otherwise improving, said canal. If no
one will accept the canal, .which cost five
million dollars, on these terms, that fact
ought to satisfy Congress that any further
expenditure of public money on the work
will be a wanton waste. Our statesmen seem
to think that the utility of an expenditure is
of no concern, so long as they have the power
to add another tax to raise the means. One
of the best means to reduce taxation is to
vote down every expenditure not indispensa
ble to meet some national necessity.
A7?. GLADSTONE'S WEAKNESSES.
It is part of Mr. Gladstone's nature to be
tremendously in earnest, whether he has just
taken to a new idea or not, and he likes to 4
think himself consistent. 1 ou would never
suppose, to hear him lecturing the radicals,
that he had ever given way on any leading
subject in his life. Some Tory hinted last
week that the Premier was betraying the
Church. "Wait for twenty-four hours, said
Mr. Gladstone, "and you will soe." Next day
a motion was to be brought forward for the
disestablishment of the Church in Wales,
where nearly all the people are Dis
senters, and it was to that Mr. Glad
stone alluded. Sure enough, when the
debate came on, Mr. Gladstone was loftily
Church; was eloquent on the virtues of an
establishment, and was shocked at those who
would let each sect take care of itself. That
he had himself been the prime agent in dis
establishing a Church only last year was ig
nored. Sitting on his bench, with his face
turned up to the lighted ceiling, Mr. Glad
stone does not look a popular man. Ho sug
gests suppressed wrath, iron determination,
inflexible gravity; but none of those are very
lovable characteristics. He is always at a
high pitch. There is no play in him. The
other members of the Cabinet, whenever they
can, sit a littlo away from him. To touch his
coat would be a sacrilege. Giving him every
credit for his great services, I am bound to
say that I, for one, feel a little bit angry
sometimes when I see him assamiug the
Iiosition of a man who has had nothing to
earn. In private life he has the oddest friend
ships. One is for the once-notorious "Laura
Rell" now the wife of an ex-officer of the
' Guords, and a curious mixture of evangelical
piety and the vanity of the world. Mr. Glad
stone and Lis family are intimate with this
lady, who preaches occasionally, and who
certainly dresses very beautifully. You don't
fete him at the theatre, and he is not expected
tt tie Derby He shows unvh nyrnpRtby
Jir wejkji,u.tu, ana gets cpiizzed behind hj
back for his display of it. A sardonic remark is
attributed to Mr. Lowe. That gentleman is one
of the Trustees of the British Museum, and
the proposal was made in Parliament to open
the building in the evenings. Mr. Lowe, as
trustee, is opposed to the idea in consequence
of the danger of fire. He was speaking of the
debate to a friend, when he observed: "I
didn't know Gladstone's opinion, but he was
aware the trustees were against it, and so I
assumed it was all light. But when Mr.
began to drop his h's in the debate, and say
he 'oped the 'Ouse would not be in a 'urry,
but would consider the importance of the
hobject,' I trembled. I saw Gladstone sit up
and listen eagerly, and I felt sure he'd give
M ay and agree to the proposal because it had
been advocated in bad English; I am glad to
say, though, that he joined me in refusing."
