Will Democrats suffer EbelENleves to be used by a man of Mr Hay's preten sions? We will not believe it. Of D GILLELAND, Esq., the Liberty candidate, we have before spoken, and will only say that he is ettli• rend , / worthy and capable, and will no doubt poll the fullvote of his party.

ICous cit.—We are informed that one of the candidates for Select Council in the Ist ward, in tends to move •to a country residence in the spring. Many, oftbe citizens of the ward, who have been de signated by some office hunter, the "humfder class" of the community, would liketo know how he will be, able to attend to the intetests.Cf the city, while living sthis palace in the country. Many worthy men of the "humbler class," are of the opinion that citizens of Pill township are not] eligible to the city Councils. We would advise those who think so, to attend at the polls today, and vote for a citizen who does not intend 'to snare cutler-the ward at the time his services will be required in tha'Councils. In the present state of cur city affairs, it is necessary that all its officers should feel a lively interest in their management. and it is PO to be inspected that a person from the country can ,!entertain as much zeal for the prosperity of our mu nicipal concerns as one of our own citizens. wi it ll wi be ll baser tbapeople to say to-day, whether they represented in the Councils by one of their own neigh. bon, or bye gentleman who will shortly be a ,citizes DI one of the townships. /dart Strtrs.—Weaaderstand, saysthe Y. Sun, that the President , Ertreetors and Company of the Plainfield Bank, New Jersey, haveinstitated we suits Against James Gordon Sennett, ,for false and nutlici• ayes libel.—:-One in the SuperiorCoart, laying daunts *1515,00 the other in the Supreme Court, damages *550.000. Said libels having appeared in the New York Herald—elm last week, and the other on Mon- works. The Board expresses the opinion that the Section Bost system has "produced advantages to the State, by regulating the prices of fi eight, and thereby increa sing trade," and recommends that more Trucks should be built. It gives us pleasure to record this fact, as we was early and eat nest advocates of the Section Boat System The speedy completion of the North Branch Canal, and a connection by its means with 00,1 Chemung Canal, are recommended. But the most important matter connected with the internal improvements of the State, is, the transfer of the Beaver dirision of the Canal from Beaver to Erie, to the Eric Canal'Company. By the Act of Match 7, 1843,4 was provided that the Beaver Division shoald be given up to the Company, when "the whole "line Item New Castle to Erie shall be completed, and "in actual use, for the transportation of merchandise "throughout its whole length." The Board regret ; that the Executive should have thought it necessary to transfcr the works to the Company, (which has been done.) and express "strong doubts" as to whether it is "completed end in actual use"--as required by the Act of incorporation. The Board justly conlude that if these doubts should be well founded, "the company has no right to the possession of the Beaver division." They indulge the hope that the Legislature could a dept measures not incompatible with the charter of the company, by which the State would retain posses sion of the Erie Extension.—The whole co-t of the E rie Division to the State was 64,548,908 29; the turn necessary to complete it, $2. ( 17,926 02 ! So that the company, for expending tbs. latter amount (or perhaps less) receive property which cost the State over 41 millions! The Board goes on to show how dangerous if not disastrous to our public works, the company may make this Erie division. It is but 226 mlies from Buf falo to steamboat navigation on the Ohio, by way of the Erie route. By way of Cleveland, taking the Ohio Canal to Portsmouth, it is 439 miles to steamboatnav igation from Buffalo. And from the same place by way of Cleveland, traveling by the Pennsylvania and Ohio Canal and-Beaver Line, it is 323 miles to the Ohio at Beaver. Thus it will be seen that the Erie Division is much the nearest route frem Buffalo to the Ohio riv er, as well as much the cheapest. The Company may fix what rates of toll they please; and by adopting a very low rate may attract a greet amount of business, and so reap great dividends from the Investment of the stockholders. It is evident from these facts that the Company have it in their power greatly to injure the public works of the State, and take business from its commercial metropolis—and the Board very justly observe that the subject is deeply interesting to emery holder of State Stock - , and every tax-payer of the Commonwealth. We must pass over other interesting items of the Report, and conclude our notice of it by giving a re capitulation of the Receipts and Expenditures upon the works for the past year: Lines.

CONGRESS.. Fat ,gets cad Leen Men.—Fatness is a deadly foe to genie*. It produces sluggishness of body and in entrees of mind. In carniverous and pot-bellied bo. dies. not only does the blood creep lazily through the veins, like muddy water in a canal, but the brain:is darkened and oppressed with gross animal vapors, which stifle the very germs of talent, and cloud or ex tinguish almost every spark of intellect. Shaltspeate says. . Fat paunches make lean pates and grosser bits Make rich the ribs, hut bankrupt the wits. The men who set the world on fire are universally lean men—beings who can distinctly feel and teckon on their own ribs. Their bodies have become almost as ethereal us the ardent spirits they enshrine—hence the restlessness, the ce*teless activity of such persons. 11'ho ever heard of a fat Bonaparte, or a corpulent Alexander? One might as well talk of s leaden ar row, a brick balloon, a slow hurricane, eelazy light ning. Fat men are too easy, quiet, and g&al-natured to make any great disturbance in the world. lie nev er heard of their performing any mighty deeds. It is the thin blade that pierces the deepest, and the leanest horse generally wins the race. Ml men with great in tellect have been lean and lath-like—small, sapless, hatchet-faced anatomies, who have half spiritualized themselves by keeping matter in subordination to mind, corporeally testifying that the sword has worn out the Scabbard, and the fiery soul "o'er informed its tegu ment of clay." Nobody ever saw a brilliant writer that had a protuberant stomach. In nine eases out of ten, big men are big boobies. Their intellect is so smothered by the mass of flesh, that it is as powerless as Enceladus under Etna.
