Oar Canals. The North American says we hare in the United States between thirty-five hundred and four thousand miles of public and pri vate otnals, of which somewhat over eleven hundred, or nearly a third, are in Pennsyl vacin. The canal- in this State coat up wards of $31,000,000 and those of the coun try represent more than $100, 000, 000, ex clusive of all that have been oi are being constructed in California. The cheapest cost more than $15,000 per milo, while the Chesapeake and Delaware rose to $203,703 per mil, and the Lachine to $235,934 for eaeh of its niac miles. They vary 32 to 190 feet wide at the surface, from 3J to 10 feet in depth, and the boats that ply upon them in some cases rise to 500 tons burden. Oa this tubject the Pittsburg Gazette re marks that until within a very late date the importance of canals for the moving of f mights was greatly under estimated, and fear there were but believed that tbey would be entirely abandoned as useless before the march of railway improvements. It haa been found, however, that these internal systems of communication have not outlived their usefulness, but as a means for the ti asportation of heavy freight at cheap races, are vastly superior to railroad?, the disadvantage of slowness is the only great drawback to canals, but it is highly proba ble that stenui will sooo take the place of horse power, and that a cheap and compar atively swift water carriage will be establish ed to meet the imperative demands of the times. Pennsylvania, owning nearly a third part of the four thousand miles of canals in the United States, is deeply interested in bringing them to a greater perfection and usefulness, aud our people would hail with pleasure and satisfaction any improvement in the system which looks towards cheaper transportation. DlSGRACFFJL, IF TRCl. IIoo. John P. Hale, our present Minister to Spain, is charged with having smuggled into that cou.itry, in October, 1806, among other article-, 830 pounds of cotton, 1500 pounds of woo.cu feit. 44,000 pounds of carpeting, 375 piunl-. of linen damask, 760 pounds of other g'ds.ere..for the use of a commercial house iu Madrid, on coti'liiioii o f sharing the prof its. If this be true, he has disgraced his country as no other MinUter has hitherto dooa, and. deserves the severest censure at the hands of his countrymen. It is a pity too. to see an old man thus destroy the rec ord of an honorable and useful life. The matte-, will undergo a proper investigation. II ! ha ! ha ! The declination of J. R. Clay, the colored man, to accept the mis sion to Liberia, affords considerable fun to Democratic journalists. The Cincinnati En quirer accounts for his conduct by saying that ''the natives of that country havere ently recurred to an old habit of theirs that of eating each other; and the shrewd Clat evidently fears that he might lie heavy on the stomachs of his cannibal breth ren." That is good, but wouldn't it be well iavor a white Democrat with the posi tion, for members of that perty can lie con veniently anywhere ; the are so used to it, you know? Election Frauds. The result of the examination into the election frauds in Philadelphia last October shows so far as it tag progressed that tico thousand one hun dred fraudulent votes were cast foiyhe ticket labelled democratic enough even to thiowout Mayor Fox and the whole Dem ocratic ticket, and put the Republican can didates in their places ! This is the toost disgraceful and criminal to the party prac tising or conniving at it, aud ought to make every man blush who votes the Democratic ticket for being in the company of such rogues and villiam. The Pittsbcro Fire. The Pittsburg Gizette of April 20th, says, that the expen sive conflagration at Forsythe's oil works h at length been so far subdued that only a tank of distillate oil, containing eight . .- "thousand barrels, which was one of the first '"-.-. .- to take fire, is still" burning, and will proba bly continue to burn antil it is all consumed. The loss of property is estimated at $29$, 0(H). on which there is an insurance to the amount of f S4.000. This is perhaps the heaviest loss by any siug'e fire in Pittsburg since the great conflagration in 1S45. $2,000 Reward Gov. Geary, under authoiity of n act of the Legislature, ha? offered a reward of two thousand dollars for the apprehension and securing of Wm. Brooks one of the Broadhead murderers, wh :at 1 his eseupe a hort itne tincc from the Monroe county jail.

Tha State Fair, it is announced, u t be held at Harrisbnrg again this year the so-.-iety hating adopted the Ohio -fm of tvro years at a location. The Fair will oten on the last Tuesday of September next and continue fourdars. A TORNADO.-Oa Monday of last week a very destructive tornado passed over sev eral of the Western State,, doing much , GiTea Him Up. The New York Commercial at last gives up Andrew Johnson. Alluding to his lute speeches in Tennessee, it says: "By his outrageous course, since returning to the South, he. has absolved every one hitherto disposed to palliate his faults from any obli gation to longer apologize for him. Many who believed that, notwithstanding his er rors of omission and commission, he aimed to do right, stood by him in his conflict with Congress, desired to draw the veil of obliv ion over his career, and see him return qui etly to the peaceful shades of private life. Many who deprecated his unjustifiable use of the pardon power and his violent out breaks of temper, nevertheless entertained considerable admrration for the man's pluck in coping, single-handed, as ho did, with his powerful pjlitical antagonists. When, however, he returns to Tennessee to advo cate the very revolutionary schemes for op posing which he became President, he alien ates every Unionist, aud occupies the posi tion of a public enemy. The Tennessee Government, which be denounces in such severe terms, and which he would have the people overthrow by force, if uecessary, is his own offspring the legitimate fruit of his labors. lie it was whj laid the founda tions for it, and itTvhs under his Military Governorship that it was inaugurated and set in operation. We trust the people of the South will folio it Foote-'s advice, and cling to Grant, instead of lending their ears to the seditious barraugues of Johnson, who is bent on mischief, and labors to fan into a fresh flame the dying embers of strife." Tue Land-"Rinq" Job. The land grant jobs, not acted on by Congress at its recent sersion, and therefore in order next winter, aggregated a total of 181,945,640 to railroads and canals. Quite a small em pire in its way, for the gentlemen of the lobby. Then there are pending propositions to guarantee raihoad bonds to $114,300,000. Then there are steamship subsidies amount ing to many millions. Up to October, 1867, the land which had been granted for rail road purposes amounted to 184,813,900 acres, at which time the Commissioner of the Land Office, in presenting these figures in hij report, said : "The quantity of lands conveyed by these grants is of empire ex tent, exceeding in the aggregate, more than 5,000,000 acres the entire areas of the six New Eugland States, added to the surface of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia." Won't Gen. Grant please to "put his foot down" early next winter. SrRPLVS Gold. The Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. BotTWf5LL,havin got rid of the office seekers, has now time to attend to hi? proper business. lie finds that gold is accumulating far too rapidly in his vaults, and he is perplexed to know what to do about it. lie has decided to sell some of it to relieve the pelthora. This is very well, but why couldn't Mr. Boctwell wait a lit tle while. If we should get into a war with Spain and England he could dispose of his gold very easily. We should not have a surplus very long, of any sort, except of greenbacks, which would multiply at a rate that would delight Sprague's heart, while Government bonds would swoop down so low as to give the Secretary little trouble on their account. Alas ! Democract. The Indiana Legis lature is:it work endeavoring to perfect a bill by which the revolutionary attempts to break up a quorum may be frustrated. One of the bills under consideration provides that any person elected as a Senator or Repre sentative, who shall, for the purpose of pre venting a quorum, fail or refuse to qualify, or who shall resign for that purpose, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and sub ject to a fine of not less than $1,000. The bill has created a sensation in the Legisla ture second only to the Constitutional Amend ment, and the Democratic members may re sign to prevent its passage. A Wise Policy. In Iowa (and it ought to be the policy of all tho States where the timber is rapidly decreasing) the planting of trees is encourage J by law. Every acre of forest trees planted releases taxation for ten years on one hundred dollars valuation, and for each acre of truit trees planted, tax is exempted on fifty dollars valuation for five years ; the same for shade trees, and hedges along he highways. There are now maple forests in several counties, and sugar made where fifteen years since was nothing but prairie grass and hazle shrubs. No Exchange of Securities. Secre tary Boutwell has issued an order directing that there shall be no exchange of securities to ensure the public deposits in national banks. This order is based upon the grounds that, as the securities withdrawn are gen erally more valuable than those deposited, the security to the government is practically weakened, and because of the additional risk incurred in handling and transporting the securities, besides the time of public of ficers occupied in attending to these ex changes. A Good Sign. The manner in which members of Congress interfere in Federal appointments, had become of such a char acter, during the last days of the session of the United States Senate, as to disgust the members of that body, and Senator Trutn ble stated that he would at the net session offer a bill making it a penal offence for a member to solicit an appointment. This is right ; and if be will push such a measure through he will do a servioe that will secure for him the thanks of the whole people. A Fact. People geuerally find it easy to believe what they wish ; for instance, many asert that Canada is anxious to be annexed to this country, yet we have never seen a man or a paper from what used to be Upper and Lower Canada that did not deprecate any such annexation. Destrcct ve Floods. Last week, Can ada, New York, and the New Fngland States were fairly deluged, the waters rising io as almost unprecedented hk-ht. The damage to property has been ooasiderable, snd everal lives wcro also lost. Gorarnment Clerks. How maDy thousands of active young men are to-day spending time and money, ''mov ing heaven and earth," as it were, to get in to position as Government clerks at Wash ington. With half the effort they are mak ing in this way to ruin themselves they might, in almost any other business, lay the foundation of future prosperity, respectabili ty and happiness. Let all such read what the Chicago Post says on the subject, and turn from their folly in time. Under the caption, "Fifty Years a Clerk," that paper gives the following excellent advice : "The telegraph tells of the dismissal of a clerk from the Pastoffice Department, ho commenced his clerical service in 1819. Fif ty jears of faithful, brain-dwarfing,' health stealing, manhood-crushiug work, rewarded by what? The mere expense of daily living. No competence for old age, uo home for de clining years, no neighbors a shriveled mummy while yet alive an old man adrift! W hat a picture and what a warning 1 Youths of America, look upon it and sigh no more for a Washington clerkship. Turn away from the Treasury building, the Patent Of fice building, the Postoffice, and, indeed, from every one of those granite tombs of manly, fresh, independent endeavor which abound in Washington, to the broad, fertile fields of noble effort, sure to reward you with competence, self-respect and the re spect of others, everywhere inviting you lo enter them. Better break rock upon the street than becorhe a government clerk. From the one you may rise to wealth and honor; from the other 3'ou will inevitably sink to poverty and contempt." Severe but Just The New York Sun, discussing the income tax, thus describes that portion of highly respectable people who evade the law : "There is a curious the ory on this subject of paying taxes to the Government current among well-to do peo pie, who would be chocked at anychnrge of personal immorality. They meet their notes punctually enough; their landlord never has to call twice for his rent ; and their butcher, their baker and their grocer are satisfied with a similar promptness. "W hen a tax even is put upon them in such a shape that they know it cannot be dodged, they draw their check for it like men. They may be seen at the Tax Receiver's office in the Park, waiting in long Hues for a chance to anticipate the amount assessed by the city on their real estate,and thus save a few days' interest. . . . With our form of government, which is c." rried on by the people and for the people, we are all partners together; aud when any one keeps back the ehare due from him to help defray the national expert ses, he simply cheats the rest of us out of enough more than our proper quota to make up the deficiency. And it makes no difference whether this comes to pass by positive lying, or by the silent trickery of withholding one's name and address from the Assessors of Internal Revenue. We therefore charge upon the rich men of the country who either make no income returi.s, or make .them untruthfully, the guilt of swindling their fellow-citizens. They are morally as much thieves as the picpocket or the shoplifter." Marvelous Industry. It is scarcely necessary at this day to say anything in praise of Webster Unabridged Quarto Dictionary, 1840 pages, and 3000 engrav ings. Having coirte into possession of a copy of the latest edition, we car not refrain from expressing our admiration at the mar velous industry and learning which such a book must have called into demand. In the book line, this Dictionary deserves a place amongst the triumphs of the century. Tho publishers' part of this ponderous vol ume has been done with a beauty and sub stantialncss which also deserves special commendation. "Reading the Dictionary," with this edition of Webster before you, is exceedingly interesting pastime. A copy of it must certainly be considered to belong to the appointments of every intelligent family. Its cost is $12, but it is aheap at that price. Moravian. An Old Rouse. -The oldest house in the United States retaining its original form is to bi found in Neponset, Mass. It was built by John Minot about the year 1640, and is stil in good repair. The Minot family still hold possession of it. In 1670 it was at tacked by three Indians during the absence of the male portion of the family. A fe male servant and several children were in the house. The girl hastily barricaded the door, and seized a loaded gun. The first In dian attempted entrance by an open window, but was met by a shovel of burning coals from the fireplace, which was thrown in his face by the girl. Another savage who ap peared at the window was phot dead ; and the survivor beat a hasty retreat. Another Railroad Project. We see it stated that the Ponnsyl vania Central Railroad Company are negotiating for Vir ginia's interest in the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, amounting to $2,000,000, and in the Blue Ridge Railroad, amounting to$l, 674,000, and that the directory of the Ches apeake and Ohio Railroad contemplate making the transfer. The inducement held out is that the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany, if the sales are made, will build a road !roiu Pittsburgh to Charleston, on the Ka nawha, or some other point in West Virgin ia, connecting their road with the Chesa peake and Ohio Road. Don't Like It. The Montreal Gazette publishes Mr. Sumner's speech, crediting him with being the spokesman of General Grant. It charges that the Senator, "with words of peace on his lips," exhibits an in describable bitterness,and marvellous "word skill to fire the American heart against Britain, while he puts thedcuiaud in such a form that it is impossible it cau be com plied with." The whole speech, the Gazette thinks, shows "a desire for an open ques tion with Great Britain." Very likely. The auestion is far from being closed. Kerosene Test. The Scientific Ameri can gives the following mode of testing ker osene: Fill a cud with warm water, the temprature of which is to be brought to one hundred degrees Fahrenheit, and pour the oil on the water. Apply flame to the float ing oil by match or otherwise. If the oil is unsafe, it will take fire, and its use in the lamp is dangerous, for it is liable to explode. But if the oil is safe- aud good, it will not lane nre. - - A. Little ofETerything. i Plenty eggs and testers. Prevalent the spring fever. Bearee hotter and greenbacKS. 1 ' .
