THE WEDNESDAY DOLLAR JOtIBRAL;
A. NEWSPAPER FOR OLD AN'D rOLTYO AMERICA.
DIXOTED
Education., Temperance, tined Norale,;Publie Vir
tue, and Genera/ Sews.
This Paper will be issued in connection: with the Mi
ners' Journal, emery Wednesday mornlnF. The spirlinets
number issued In about two week and Mar regu
lar publication commenced early In May.
One of the °Weds of this Paper is to tamely, to wane
extent. the Schuylkill County School whlcb was
discontinued last year. Several competent Teachers have
promised their aid in the Educational Department of the
DQ1.1.117. JOCIMAL.
It will eschew mere partisan politics, but nevertheless
occupy the 'broad platform of Americanism.and proudly
pointingtothe example of oar Rev°lntionary sires, it will
stand by the liberal institutions of our nanntry, and
urge the maintenance and dissemination of Republican'
principles everywhere.
Temperance and general Morality, together with the
Religions Intelligence of the County particularly, will
hold conspicuous places in the new Paper. j It will labor
earnestly and always for the suppression of that monster
roll of the age---the Rum traffic: nor will it spar° other
public vices of the day, whether in high or low places.
. The current aver, both foreign and domestic, impeded.
ly of our own Borough and County, will be carefully col
lected and recorded for the readers of the Dottar.
As this will be a pernweent Piper, not to he'diacontin
ued, as Campaign Papers are, the Publisher confab:rutty
appeals to the public to sustain this proposed enterprise,'
so laudable and manifestly so much masded.; The low
rates of subscription will place the new Paper within'
the reach of all, even children, as the subseriptioreptitie
amounts to only Tice, Cents a teeek.
This Paper will he free of Postage delivered in any part
of Fehuylkill County. and for subscrit;erti out of the
County. the Postage will be only nervily-six Ants per an
num, paid quarterly in advance. Lly clubbing, out of the
County, the Postage can nearly, all to
.sayed.
As this Paper will contain matter entirely different
from that contained In the Miners' Jountal, the present
subscribers to the Minors' Journal will find It an inter ,
estiug Paper for their families. The terms to those who
take. the Miners 'Journal and the. Wednesday Dollar
Journal, will be $3 per annum, payable in advance.
Tot Clulost
To Clubs of filo and upWards, sent out of 'tbo County,
the Paper will be furnished at SO cents, which will give
20 cents towards paying, the Postage. ,
THE $5OO SALARY7—A 13,17st—W i e observe
that in the Appropriation Bill reported to the
House of Representatives of this .State, is. the ,
project of paying the - members of the Legisla
tore $5OO salary.. This is done to cover the
matter - up aud 'screen the members from .vo
ting directly for it Disia to prevent the
Governor from vetoing the bill. SuCh Legis
lation is a positive outrage upon the people, and
every, member ought to be held resollsible to '
the people , who votes,for this section , of the
Appropriation Bill. The Democrats are de
termined to break down the present Adininis
traticm, and they are aided by the adherents
of that most corrupt of political gamblers and

by setting the laws at defiance, in not keeping
the Nate: of his Middletown Shaving Shop at
par; thus 'wringing from • the working.people
and business men, tens of thousands of dollars,
by which he enriches himself by, defrauding,
the It does seem that the very
essence of corruption in the State is now band,
ed together at Harrisburg—that many having
assumed the guise of Americanism; the more
effectually to accomplish their objeets—and
thus lead on'the honest portion of the Ameri:
cans to ruin 'and destruction. But Mark the
issue; Americanism will be pnrgedl of this
corruption,
..and Governor Pollock (against
whom all their efforts are now directed,) 'will

ELECTION' ASD RIOT IN CiNciNNArt..—The
municipal election in, Cincinnati, on :Monday
last, was most c.iciting, 'characterized as it
was by a fearful struggle in several wards' of
that ty, between the „American and German
citizens. The votes, of the Eleventh and
Twelfth wards were destroyed by a body of
tacit who rushed into the electiow rooms
while the Judges were counting, the votes,
and seizing the boxes 'containing the tickets,
carried them into the street, and burned thein
in the presencecrowd.. Several des-
berateencounters took place betwetn the
Americans and Germans, in one of which a
=pion was used. Although several persons
are reported tttbe kilned, the only one named
is. Dr. Brown, of the Eleventh ward. 3lany
of the combatants were seriously wounded
during the melees. The Americans sueeeed
edin electing their municipal ticket. At 14i
accounts the military were under arnis, aid
the indications were that the difficulties would
be settled Witlitiut further bloodshed. The
n';erits , of the difficulty, have not been

The following letter was intended for last - week's.
Journal, but was not received for-some cause -
known to us, until after our paper was put to press :
Resnuso, March 28, 1855.
Mr. B. B.c:ixas—Djar Sir:—.lo your -paper of
Saturday last, under the head of the "Coal Trade,"
allusions are made to the Schuylkill Canal, that
reflect somewhat severely on the management by
the agents of. the Company in the immediate
obarge of the Works. lam convinced you'would
chit knowingly prejudice the public mind nnjustly
against the Work or its officers; I therefore sup
rids° you have not becu properly informed' as to
the facts, and with your permission, beg leave to
ante the circumstances in relation to the matters
which I imagine to have been the subject of com
plaint.
You speak of "the practice of letting the water
Into the Canal to give a smooth surface, thus coy
oricig up the deposits of mud and bars; only to be
discovered when the boats stick fast," as a "good
*dory to save Looney' ib winter, but works badly
in practice, and iought I to be abandoned.",. Now,
were this true, the comparison would be just, when
yea say the indifferent management of the'se works
is only equalled by the of the State Canals. There
is however, some mistae. The Canals of Our lino,
train all of which the wider had been drawn during
the winter, were thormighly cleansed before they
Were filled. Beats loaded lust season, and re
niiining at various poiiits on the line over wine;
ter, and which were fotind drawing 5 ft. 7 in. to'
near 6 feet water, have all been passed without ,
shirting cargo.
The covering up of bars, doubtless rotors main
lx id Darn No. 2; at Port Carbon; Dam No. 4 at
Me; tarbon, andloata N, o. 7 5 at Schuylkill haven.
In Dam No. 2, the water was kept dimwit otr from
theelose of navigation until near the opening, for
the double purpose of prosecuting the work on a
separate ehanneldesigtied to carry the Coal dirt
(Which has 'hitherto, as is well known, been a
source of gat trouble and expense to the (om-
Pony, owin to the pr4ctice of throwing it into
th - o stream above the head of navigation), and to
Wash away the depositsiof that material existing
in; the channels.: Mizell good was accomplished
-in - -this way; but the formation of a bar in the
eddy below the Mouth !of the "Firth dock," and
miller sumo of, the schutes. was unavoidable.—
There were, however, removed, as low as the water
weald permit, by. manual labor; and a dredging
machine that was on the spot, was relied upon to
take oat what still rosMainsd. This machine, as
Bonn as the filling of the'datn permitted her to he
Sleeted, was worked day and night, with double
gnitgs of men, until the ilitlieulty had been so far
overcome as to render night work unnecessary--
The amount of.dittention occasioned, was not at
al( serious ' and even those boats that had lain in
the dock, loaded Over winter, experienced but lit
tle'f delay after they were ready to start. At Mt.
Carbon the dam had beets empty, and the bars of
,COO -dirt removed by laborers, yet some ever
loaded boats could not , pass until soft bars of
shith had been scooped-Lan operation which, for
other boats; frith it flush istate of the water, would
not
. have been necessary. A bar at Schuylkill
Haven, brought down by the West. Branch,:was
preceptly excavated by another dredge machine,
and is very limited delay happened to such boats
as 'were ready to come out of the docks in slant
No, I. This dept . :sit war chiefly the result of a
very:pi:lira drawing offiof that dam, and to have
draws it fully woald hare greatly increased the
difficalty, besides causing a risk of injury to boats
then lying in the docks loaded.
Qr, other delaytton the line, resulting froth bars
or
,Obstructions, I believe there were none that
weth protracted, and sulh as aroso from a 'Nil'
stage of water, in some Of the lower dams '
were
proMptlysittended, to, and the water raised tent
porFily in the usual manner.
' Ihave now mentioned Cho whole of the dant/.
ties On a Rao 108 miles tong, sneeessfully opened
earlier than. any tither navigation In the State,
an& hollered to be twain as gaud working order,
at this yet early period ;in the season, as could
temionably.be expected, ind if I have satisfseto
rily'AfecOnnted for any difficulties which bare Wen
pang—it is the general management as- a ickiite,
that our Coal- Operators find fault with--or' In
other words, oar fast folks think they are entirely
too slow in all their movements. :
I lSome of the
evils complained of, we are willing toadmit, might
to have been overlooked, ortreated More leniently
by Boat-owners, in consequence of the efforts made
to open the Canal for navigation, at the eariiest
possible,peri - 041--even before it was really ready
for navigation. The accumulation of dirt in the
different streams in this neighborhOod, which is
swept into the Canal by freshets, causes much dif
ficulty in keeping the channels clear; but the gen
eral impression among; those interested is, that the
Ocanpany do not suircciest/y ward against these
eril•—that it, would require less expenditure in
'the end to prevent theso difficulties, than to
re
move them after they o c cur. tinder the present
circumstances, Boat-owners and : Shippers are In
constant dread of the channels and dams being,
filled up, and the trade , checked. This ought not
to be the case with such a magnificent work as the
Schuylkill Canal, which. is capable of adMitting
Barges with a capacity of upwards of two-hun
dred tone.
The "turn-out" among the Miners at a number
of Collieries on the West Branch for an advance
in wages continues. In some instances we leatin;
the men demand the exorbitant wages paid last
year. Coal is sold from $1 to $1 '25 per ton loss
than the high rates that ruled last year, and our
Operators cannot : afford to pay such high rate?. '-
The price of Coal must govern the rates of wages,
and both capital and labor must confOrm to cir
cumstances. Our Operators have to submit to a
reduction in the price of Coal—mad Misers and
Laborers must expect to work fur less wages than
they received last year. The men have a perfect
right to cease work whenever they please, provi
ded they do not coerce or threaten others. And
the Operators can advance their wages_ or employ
°theft if they think proper—both parties suffer,
and therefore a cunciliatory..course 'on both sides
would seem to be the wisest policy A couple
of months hence, when all the regions commence
pouring, their supplies into the market, we doubt
whether the men will be an eager to turn-out=
they will in ail probability be more anxious to
turn-in. One tbing however is certain, no violence,
rioting, or destruction of propery, will bo tolerated
under any eircurnstanees—public opinion is a unit
on that point—and we have the men who are do.
tertnined that property and-the laws of the coon.
try shall be protected at all hazards.
Conanseoznerrs.—We have received several
letters from different parts of the country, on the
subject of the Coal Trade. We invite all those
gaged in the business abroad to correspond with
the Journal, and set forth their grievances. In
this manner many erns that exist are brought
before those interested, and remedied to a certain
extent.
We received a letter from Newport, R. Island,
a few days ago, which we have Unfortunately mi:s 7
'laid, inquiring "whether Coal cannot be purchased .
in the Coal region and shipped (Rivet without lei,
leg mixed at Richmond." This is an aria that
the writer thinks is "seriouslruffeeting the inter=
esti!, of Schuylkill County, because pttrebaierrt
abroad very seldom obtain the Coal they par-
chtot." • 'This is true to a certain extent—but the
Coals from all the regions, aro more or less mixed
at the shipping ports. In Schuylkill County thUre
is a ireater variety of Coal than is generally
found in other regions—and it is the practice of
some of tturdealers nt Richmond, to buy an. infe
rior Coal at lower rates and mix it with a better
article, to equalize prices. The dealer ought' to
makehlmself acquainted with the different iindS
of Coal, as far as possible--:and then insist on re=
cciving the nrticle ho purchased.
A. letter from Natick, Massachusetts, Stater that
tbe . high prices at which the Philadelphia ti Read-j
ing Railroad opened, have caused great despond- .
ency in the trade, and will keep purchasers back in ,
1 the early_ part of the season. The writer adds,—
"The present condition of tho trade in Boston and.
vicinity, is quite unlike' that it assumed a yeir•;
ago—then the trade was full of !wipe and activity,
with a demand exceeding the supply, and a fair I
prospect of a. good trade in futuro—now
ference and inactivity are observable ev erywhe're—
there is no overstock of Anthracite in the liostOrk, l
market; but at the same time there. is no disposo:
ties to buy, except for immediate wants. The'
great stringency in the Money market, and the
general depression that pervades the „manufactu
ring interests, add to this feeling. _ The whide
trade were disappointed at the opening rates
charged by the Railroad Company. The tenden
cy of these rates, as I apprehend, will be to delay
shipments in the Spring months, thereby increas
ing the chances of a short supply, espeeially - in
the Eastern markets., and to enhance the cost at
the expense of tho consumers. But these, Com
panies have but Mile to: fear from "the public,
whatever may be the' price of Coal in , Winter.—
The dimes and dollars* a CoraPeny may charge for
its services, are generally overlooked, but when
the rich man and thepoorlman.corne to buy their
fuel and snd - it higher than ,usual, their vials - of
wrath are-immediately poured out upon the heads
of the Denier and'Aliner, and the high prices or
carrying Companies are generaily overlooked."

REPODT OP TDE.DELAWARY. AND lIDDSON CANAL
. . COMPANY.
The Managers of tbo Delaware and Iludson Ca-
toil Company herewith furnish to the Stockholders.
the usual annual statement of the year termina-1
Ling on the first of the preSent month, by which
, the amount of net profits is shown to be $1,100,-
, 141 79, equal to fifteen and a quarter per cent. oh'
the capital stack of the Company.
The quantity of coal shipped from Honesdale
during the season was 438,406 tons, of which
412,549 tons either reached' Rondout, or was sold
at various Pointe along the line of canal; the re
mainder, 25,857 tons, having been detained on its
downward transit by the premature and uneXpeet
ed closing in of the winter..
An item of $541,378 07 will be found on the
credit side of the statement, being the amount re
ceived from the Pennsylvania Coal• Company in
part payment of tolls on the coal cleared by that
Company from Hawley.
The business of the past year was marked by
extraordinary interruptions to the navigation of
the canal, which, while they lessened the quantity
of coal that would otherwise have been brought to
market - at the same time largely added to the cost
of production. The very favorable result which,!
under such circumstances, the-Board are still able
to presentts, they think, well calculated to strength
en the confidence of the Stockholders of the Com
pany in the substantial value of their work.
It has been the misfortune of the Board, since •
the issuing of the last annual report, to be deprived i
of. the invaluable services of ono of their fellow
members, Miuntee Wtoirra, Esq., whose lamented
decease occurred on the 29th day of December last.
The name of Mr. Wears has been identified with
the history of this' Company during . the whole I
term of its existence ; its earliest inception origi
nated with him ; ho was unceasingly and faithful
lfdevoted to its interests, both as an executive
officer and a manager, and, until the peridd of hie
last illness, the Company never failed to derive
profit from his astute counsels and active and en
ergetic exertions. By order of the Board,
