Canal Tolls. It affords us peculiar pleasure to publish tho following statement of the increase of the tolls received at Johnstown, during the Present year, as compared with the receipts for &tame period in 1842. The result gives fresh cause of satisfaction to those wbobare sustained the retrenchment po- Hey of the Canal Commissioners; it proves. beyond the possibility of doubt or cavil, the entire ihperinrity of individual competi tion, over the old plan of companies and combinations, and must forever settle pub- lie opinion in favor of the Truck system It is worse than idle for the enemies of the "sagacious policy which has produced these cheering results, to attempt to argi.e against such overwhelming proof as this increase gives of the usefulness of the re forms' instituted by the Canal Board. The combination of rich carriers who have edthe columns of venal newspapers with weak and whining complaints, and efilirts to show that they were wronged and the Sate injured by the course of the Canal Canunicsioners.'tnay as well forego their labors- They would show tht it prudence, WO; by abandoning their ridiculous manda mus *gainat the Canal Board, now pend ing.before the Supreme Court. The ptof• cee . ding was the offspring of the bitter ness of defeat and disappointment, and will, if we mistake not, end in the greater confusion of the plaintiffs. We do hope the Governor's attention may be drawn to the subjoined statement, am:lathers of the same tenor which are ap pealing everyday. They prove incontest ibly, that the public works can be made vastly profitable to the State, and offer - unanswerable arguments against turning over to stock speculators, the main line of Or public works: COLLECTJE'S OFFICE, JOHN -Taw N.

The increase would have been still more surprising, if our works had been open as soon as they generally are. Bunker 11111 Monument The completion of this magnificent work, was, as our readers are doubtless a ware, the occasion of great festivities in the city of Boston, on Saturday last. My riads of people, among whom it is proba ble were citizens of every state in the Un ion, were gathered on this battle ground; 'Balker Hill was perhaps the most import ant battle of the revolut jail, and this moriie meat will assuredly aid in keeping alive the remembrance of the gloiy gained there by American arms. A sketch of the history of its erection, which we com pile from a New - York journal, will not be uninteresting. The corner stone of this imposing structure was laid in 1825, by General Lafayette, with great pomp and ceremony. At that time, no plan had been fixed upon in regard to the building 'of the monument. The whole structure was made under the superintendence of Mr Savage, undet three difierent cons tracts. At first he was en gaged as builder by Mr Willard, the atchitect, and fdr.' Dished the materials and the labor. This s tangement continued during the yews! 1027 an 4 1828, when the foundation andl fourteen courses of the superstructure were laid. In August 1828, the work was, suspended on account of deficiency of funds, about $56,000 having been expen ded, including the purchase of the sight in the quarry for all the necessary materials, the gearing at the wharves and on the hill, which was complicated and expensive, and net including the purchase of the land. in the summer of 1834, the work was resumed. Mr Savage, being still employ ed by Mr Willard, was obliged, on ac count of an engagement for service tinder the United States government, to commit the oversight of the work to Mr Charles Pratt, though by occasional visits he con tinued to at perintend and direct it. Six. tema more courses were laid, when the work was again closed for want of funds, in 1835; about $20,000 more having been' expearied.

The Tropic and other papers in New Orleans are waging a most fierce and unrelenting w.i r agaiiist President Houston. They charge him wiqi being in correspondence with Santa Anna, and in his pay. They sty a draft of his on Santa Anna's agent in New Orleans for $30,000 has been paid, and that funds are on hand to meet an other one for the same i mount. We believe this story to be false and malicious; and we have no doubt all the other stories prejudicial to the honor and lair fame of Sam Houston, that are continu ally emanating from his enemies, are equally so. Tbe policy of Sam Houston has not met the aps probation of a few speculators, wh..se erhemes of enrich:ng mselves at the expense of the pence and prosperity of Vie people 01 Texas, have been. I thwarted by it; and it is with them that the hue and cry against him originated, which the New Orleans editors so loudly reiterate.

That Moore has received money from the Government of Yucatan, for which he has never accounted to his Government, is a fact that cannot be contradicted.
