uithout doing injury to any correct code,
of principles. We believe that if the two
systems were compatible,and could be car
ried on together, that immense advantages
! would thereby ariso to all the interests of
our citizens, and extending the same bene-1
fits elsewhere. We uro not convinced
that the two systems cannot be profitably
followed together. As soon ns we are so!
convinced—and it will not bo long until'
tho "question will be decided—there will be
no hesitation on the part of your press to
speak out. These highicays are peculi
aily such for rafting purposes; and tha
ruftmen having the poscsssion of the right,
if there should bo yielding on the part of
either interest, of course it should not be
on the part of the raftmen. In thc mean
time we think there should bp no hesita
tion on the part of the Legislature to adopt
such action as will secure our lumbermen
against any injuries thnt may be done by
these logs. This can be done effectually,
with but little difficulty. Either compel
the log-men to file bonds with sufficient
security ; or make the logs themselyes
responsidlo wherever found. If either
course was adopted, we believe it would be
satisfactory, and from what we have heard
from both sides, we think there would be
no difficulty in coming to a compromise up
on some such terms. Tllie lumber inter
ests in this region hnviKa right to demand
it. And the log-men, if they intend to act
honestly and fairly, cannot object Ao such
conditions.
j 03~Tliis day—the fourth of March—
I Fuanklin Pikkce, of New Hampshire,
will be installed as President of the United
States for the next four years. The more
that is known of this great man, the higher
he rises in public estimation. From the
time he left Concord until he reached
Washington, he managed to elude the
crowds of anxious friends that awaited his
arrival at every stopping place, and actu
ally slipped into his apartments at Wil
liards hotel in Washington about j> o’clock
on the evening of the 21st ult., without the
fact of his arrival being known fo any but
n ; few confidential friends—to ; the greUt
disappointment oPtbc crowd awaiting at
the depot, and' more especially to n large
number of gentlemen who, in order to see
and bo seen fit—went all the way toßalti
mote to meet him, and afterarrivingtlicra
wijre cooly informed that they had passed
the President elccf on the way, . '
It is publicly announced that the Cabi

| Tho following from the Jersey Shore
; Republican, shows the feeling that exists
I in regard to the log floating business.—
This has got to 6c a matter of very serious
;complaint in the lumber country, und we
trust some action may be taken by the
, Legislature to remedy the evil:
| Loo Floating.—A bill is now pending
, before the Legislature, to enact a law, to
| prohibit tho floating of looic logs in the
■ river and streams, It seems that a great
, majority of tho people in this section of
| the state are-decidedly in favor'ofa meas-’
j ure of this kind. Of the injurious effects
| occasioned by the presence of loose logs itj
| our streams, we have only to refer to the
| late disastrous.flood. That they were the
> means of the destruction of hundreds of
dollar’s worth of property, there can be
I no shadow of doubt. The destruction of
! the bridge and aqueduct across Pine creek,
I wc have no doubt, was occasioned in this
j way, and when those structures were car
ried away, a part ‘of the Jersey Shore j
bridge went too. ,It is sincerely hoped;
that the members of- thp Legislature, if
they have not already, will investigate
this important matter thoroughly, and at
once pass a law to protect the property of
citizens, every year endangered, to a
greater or less extent, by thousands of
floating logs, completely choking up the
streams, i\nd rendering it almost impossi-:
ble for rafts to be*got oat with safety. ,
