More than that; abrogating the one :' sided arrangement, our Canadian trite has actually 'named, and the Treasury has collected $7,000,000 annually in duties there from. This is a bad show for any more ',reciprocity." Ix C/TY Commis on Tuesday, there was introduced a resolution instructing the City Engineer to prepare a plan of general• sew erage for the city ; but meeting with some 9pposition, from the fact that it did not come 'through the prober .committee, it was laid on the table. It will probably come up it the nest Meeting, and we trust willbe favor , ably acted upon. The city badly needs such a plan, and the costof its prepration would be mere trifle in comparison to the great advantage deilved therefrom At present, sewers are constructed ildiscriminately of various capacities, and in serpentine ways 'find connection with the river:`: Many serious errors of judgment have been made in the past In the construction of some of the most important sewers of the city, owing to the fact that no general plait has been in use. _The City Engineer is throughly competent for the work and the Councils should not be slow to embrace themselves of his services in the matter. THE STATEMENT of the business of the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Rail way ComPany for the month and for the year past, appears in another column. Com pared with December 1867, the last month shows an , increase of 00,545.58 m the net earnings, while the entire net increase for the year reaches the very notable sum of $636,448.42 It is also to be observed that, while the gross earnings have swollen from $7,242,125.96 in '67 to $8,022,120.74 in '6B, an addition of about $780,000, the expenses for the same period were enlarged by not quite $140,000, resulting in the net increase as above. Herein we have conclusive proof that the affairs of the corporation have been managed with as much economy as skill. If the business of the year, like that of the month, has derived this large additional in- come 'almost wholly from the carriage of freights, it would also 'afford the best dens that this Fort Wayneroad has reached a solid basis in the public confidence. THE PRESENTMENT. We publish in another column the pre sentment of the Grand Jury, presented yes terday to the Judges of the COurt of. Quarter Sessions. It is a concisely worded and in teresting document, and will repay perusal. We most heartily agree with the compli mentary reference made to the NV ork House and of the gentlemen comprising the Board of Managers; and the Superintendent, who are charged with the details of its erection. The recommendation that the institution be early completed is a good one, as the county is suffering with an oveicrovrded jail, and the hundreds who almost live entirely in confine ment as vagrants Might ba redeemed and made useful members of Society if they could be consigned to a work house, where they would have to earn their bread by industry. The Grand Jury members were specially pleased with Dixmont Hospital, the County Home and House of Refuge, all of which in stitutions are managed in a highly credita ble manner. The unblushing violation of the license law,as well as the enormous increase of rum shops in the vicinity, is a topic lightly bandied upon by the presentment. We do not see that any relief can come until the present law is materially, changed. The liquor traffic is hard - to regulate, and it is at least due the people, that the Legislature frame for the county a law less objectiona ble than the one in force. It was thought when it was passed that the effect would be to temporarily increase the number of liquor saloons, but that in the course of time the weaker dealers 'would fall out of the way, unable to cope with the great opposition presented. Such has not been the case, but to the contrary, both weak and strong are " prospering. The reference made to the incompetency of Police magistrates is in a measure sup ported by facts, but the exceptions to the rule are more numerous than the reader might infer from the presentment. We fail to see the force of the suggestions made to secure reform in this direction. Upon the whole the presentment is well worthy the attention of all thoughtful citizens. A PROFITABLE INVESTMENT.' Whfn the city of Philadelphia was in vited to subscribe for one hundred thousand shares of stock of the Pennsylvania 'Rail- road, the applitstion was urgently supported by the frieu'ds of the projected improve ment, and as stoutly opposed by many citi zens of large practical experience in every thing but railway affairs. Fortunately for that city, the more sagacious counsels pre railed, and the subscription was made. For the payment of the sum subscribed, the city negotiated, upon its own 'credit, a loan of $5,000,000. For a considerable period, and until the completed road began to realize a remunerative income, the interest upon this loan was also an added burthen , upon the City Treasury. But the day at last came when the most sanguine hopes of its early and steadfast friends were more- than real ized. Paying regular and ample dividends, these outgoes of the City Treasury ceased; the income from , the stock met the , regti, larly recurring payments for interest, and, the only question remaining concerned the ultimate discharge of the principal of the Philadelphia then awoke to the fact that she was rapidly becoming a great and pros peious city. And 'there were none of het' people so blind as. o everlook,'or so tena cious of their former prejudices as to - deny, that, for her late and wonderful advance inpopulation and wealth,,she was mainly indebted to the courage and wisdom which had projected and perfected this . great road; and which has bound the vast resour ces of the West as an inseparable element in the material prosperity of the great city at its, ,tide-water,...terminus. Philadelphia thearealized that the , amount,expended for. I her subscription was already more than re- paid to her by this wonderful increment in the wealth of her citizens, and_that 'she could afford to lose every other re course for the repayment of the five mill ions subscribed, and still' would be Ithe gainer, in dollars actually netted to her gea eral resources. • She has done even, better than that._ A recent report of her City Controller.tives the sequel of the story. Recapitulatinf the , amounts paid out for interest on the loan, and the sums received by way of dividends, upon the stock which the proceeds of that loan hid paid for, it appears that not only has every , dollar spent been repaid to the city ~but that it has also realized the further Sum of $3,890,421;16, for 'application in the reduction of its debt, and thet it still holds 70,149 shares of ate stock, worth, at the cur rent rates , $ 3,7 70,508.. The city has thus I made a direct profit of more than $2,160,- 000, after the last dollar of its bonds shall • have been canoelled.

A WEST INDIAN STATE. The proposition for an American protec torate over certain West Indian islands, to which we alluded recently, was formally brought before Congress, by Gen. Benne, in the House on Tuesday. It met with an unfavorable reception from members. Al though no vote was taken, and the subject went ever for the day, enough was said, in a running commentary in the way of quer ies from the curious and of replies by the member from Massachusetts, to evince the sense of the House unmistakably against the policy of such present intervention in the, affairs of .neighboring peoples. Inci dentally. but significantly, an inquiry whether any negotiations are pending, be tween the administration and the authori ties of Hlspanioln, was apparently evaded by Gen. BANKS, but substantially answered in the affirmative. His language will be everywhere regarded as tantamount to the admission that Mr. BEWAIL]) has already taken the initial steps for the proposed agree ment with those authorities. The programme is, evidently, under the disguise of a protectorate, to absorb Hayti and San Domingo among the American possessions. Next, would come such effec tual aid to the,Caban insurgents as to estab lish the nominal independence of that island, over which a similar protectorate would speed'. y follow. The Haytien proposition, strictly upon its own merits, might find many friends in this country. The' two Governments in that island are absolutely independent, and no pewer in the world can dispute their right to dispose of themselves as they please. The Cuban affair is altogether a 'different question, and—that part of the programme would be fruitful of international difficul ties, which we are all earnestly'desirous to . avoid. , Whenever the advocates of Haytien annexation shall be able to satisfy onr people that their proposition would involve no hazards in this direction, they will have a very fair prospect for its general adoption. We can all agree to take Hispaniola, pro vided that no money is to be paid for it, and that its poptlation accept the ordinary posi tion of other States in our Republic. The arguments in favor of annexation are many, and most of them are palpable, while ob jections might be partizan but could have little substantial weight. Nevertheless, the schemejs likely to to defeated now—to be revived at an early day. THE CLEVELAND RAILROAD IM DROGLIO. In referring to the late Railroad imbroglio the Cleveland Herald says: The newly elected Directors are as follows: J. N. McCulloch, Wellsville; James F. Clark, Cleveland: J. Graham Garpiner, Cin cinnati; E. Gest, Cincinnati; J. J. Gest, Cin cinnati; B. F. Jones, Pittsburgh; Joseph Stickney, Wilkesbarre, Pa.; W. H. Den ham, New York; N. Millard, New York; N. A. Prentiss, New York; John D. Taylor, New York. The terms of the contract ex isting between this Company and the Pitts burgh, Fort. Wayne t Chicago Railroad Company required the election of Mr. Mc- Culloch Superintendent of the latter road to the Board of Directors of the Cleveland & Pittsburgh Road; that fact probably ac counts for the retention by the new dynasty of that gentleman. At the last year's eleo tion, when the Vanderbilt influence con trolled, Mr. Jas. F. Clark, of this city, was not re-elected as Director. This fact may have been the reason for his election now by the Erie interest. How Mr. Jones, of Pittsburgh, came to be chosen we do not know. Fortunately, these gentlemen were on the Board. and while they had no pow er to stay the piracy committed:by the ma. jority, they have the integrity to expose the deep damnation of the taking off in a car pet bag of the records and funds. of the company. By the original charter of the Cleveland and Pittsburgh Company a certain number of Directors must be citizens of Ohio, the object of which clause is apparent; but to neutralize that feature' the Ohio Directors— save Messrs. Clark and McCullough—were taken front Cincinnati, the most distant point from the road, while ono Director hailing from Cincinnati is a New York carpet-bagger, sent out a few days in ad vance of the election to gain a nominal resi dence for the purpose of being included in the Board. Whether we consider the boldness or novelty of this operation. it has not its par allel in stock . movements. And there is another feature in these elections 'of Rail road Directors not generally known, sun which, it is said, entered so largely into the election of the C. & P. ComPariy on the 6th aato oontrol the Tote. Proxies are supposed to be given by holders of the stock to per sons who represent the views of the owner of such stock; it not being, convenient for such holders to attend personally upon the meeting at which the election takes place, they • gitli 4 a power of attorney ,that their views may be represented in the election. But the original object of the proxy. so far as railroad elections are concerned, has b3dar lost; and noWfiroxies `hemters of traffic, the parties securing tiho are W11111305 , ,py the largest premium for their use.

We believe he is the choice of the people of the State, who now urge the use of his name, which they believe will be a certain guarantee of victory. We but simply echo that voice in advocating his nomination. Bet come what may, the friends of General Cass will use no diehmiorable means in advancirat his claims to, that high office..

Maine; Maynard, of Tennessee, and others. Their votes are not to betaken by any means as indicative of a want of confidence in the new administration, for some of them are the warmest admirers of both the President and Vice President. Same of them would have voted for the re peal if it had come from, the Committee in regular order, and had been open to de. bate. Others are in favor of the principle of the bill. but would have voted for a mod ification of is provisions. Many Republi cans voted for its repeal with pleasure, be cause they felt that on the occasion of its original passage they had been obliged to vote for it under the pressure of political necessity. Judge Bingham stated in pri vate conversation very emphatically that he voted for the repeal of the statute be cause it was a dead letter, the Senate hav ing refused to execute it. If the vote in the Horse is any indication, its passage in the Senate is certain, but the subject will be de bated there at great length, and no predic tion as to its i result can be safelY made. It will be noti ced that nearly all the Southern members voted for the repeal. Republican sentiment is divided with the same clearness, among the more inlineri-, tial journals of the party. These, how ever, cometch nearer to an agreement in their spec dons 'upon the result of the movement in the Senate.' The uncondi tional repeal of the act does not seemi, probe able. If anything be done <to disturb the present situation, it will, doubtless, be by way of amendment. And final action in the Senate may be deferred to a period , so late in the session, as to enable Mr. Jonalsox to -pocket, and so defeat the amendatory or repealing bill. In no event, will the present Executive be suffered to derive any official benefit from the decision of Congress. Knowing this, Mr. JOHNSON is quite willing to throw this matter over, in the hope that it may prove an element of discord in the ensuing Congress. Of the recent vote in the House, the PhiladelPhia bzquirer says : The action was sudden, and the detente ination to repeal the bill—no good reason being shown why it should be done—will strike many as a rather extraordinary pro- ceeding. It is to be presumed that the members of the House supposed that they were doing a service to General Grant by the passage of this bill. If it is now repealed upon the heel of Johnson's administration, it can only be upon the confession that it was passed to embarrass, him. Undoubt edly it was enacted because he was a bad President but to a good President the law ought not to be a hardship - or an impedi ment, because he would not desire to do anything which would cause the provisions of the law to bear forcibly against him. General Grant' will find no difficulty about this law. The Senate will surely advise and . . ' consent to the removal of all the incompetent and un faithful officers appointed by Andrew Johnson. Iu regard to Grant's own ap pointments, they will be consented to by the Senate, and as long as he and Congress are in accord it is : to be presumed that he will have no occasion to remove them ex cept for cause. The law may',require amendment to make It more easy in cases of necessity arising for removal during the session of Congresas, but the general principle of the act is just, and its retention in the statute book would do no harm. THE pending Senatorial contests have reached no, decision, except in our own State. In Maine, the success of Mr. Hex- LIN is not yet assured. In Missouri, where the fight is triangular between SCRURZ, LOAN and HENDERSON, a dispatch says: "The Schurz men are- jubilant and de clare -that Loan •is surely beaten bet meanwhile Henderson is looming andgath ering strength, and the conflict is by no means over. It will be abort, however, for the regular nominating caucus will be held on Wednesday night, and if the decision of that body is adhered to the .flght will end, but of this there is not assurance. The ex citement is so great and the feeling so bitter that there is scarcely a doubt but that every means will be used to defeat Schurz, no matter what the result of the caucus may be." The State of Superior. The people of Michigan are taking meas. ures for the formation of a new State, to be contructed of the Upper Peninsula in the State of Michigan; and that portion of Wis consin lying north of aline drawn from the mouth at the Menominee due west of the Mississippi rtver, to, be called the State of puperior. The proposed State' would extend froin Sault Ste. Marie on the east, taking the' whole south shore of Lake Superior as its northern boundary, embracing nine coun ties of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and the tier of couuties in Wisconsin. .The area of the State would be about 35,000 square miles, and the population would range from 75,000 to 100,000. The region possesses yast undeveloped wealth in Its mines, its lumber, and its fisheries, and if erected into a separate State would soon take rank"among, the most prosperous of the Union.

Gum says:, "Whether we or Generaßutler are right as . to the. mode sad me diu m of payment for the bonds, we will n argue, but we cart but be honest in the . premises." • The Herald says of the scheme : "Now.' ever much his views may be questioned of opposed by the old school financiers and po litical - economists, no doubt :he, has struck the chord of popular sentiment; that he will be recognized as the leader in, this new , movement for an• American system of cur rency and'ilnance." The Warldaaye : plan is not without ingenuity and a certain sort of architectural symmetry, but built upon a ridiculously unstable tons dation and-supported by soph istries, we can't call them arguments, which could be generated only in the brains of : a demagogue."

The bonded debt of the State is $1,095,175; State warrants outstanding on the Ist of December, $290,254; amount of taxes due and now being paid for 1868 to meet these warrants, $231,450, and unpaid taxes for the previous year, $156,385.

Nearly $lO,OOO will have to be raised to meet the ex pense of calling out a battalion of mi litia and 'the'. Nineteenth regiment' to defend the border against the Indians. The Governor recommends that two regi ments of militia be organized, armed and equipped, of men living on frontier, to meet raids and also urges a legislative pe tition to C ongress to transfer the bureau to thewar debt.
