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

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

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.'

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. Depression in all the interests

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 Comm°.
dare Moore is concerned with the speculators, we
have no doubt; and it is probably owing to his be•
ing aware that his Government knew of their de •
signs, and of his intention of furthering them, that
ho refused, when fiat ordered home in October
last, to oh( y. 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. This money; a
