quarters, to have the usury laws of this .
State repealed. The movement is urged
with great energy , in Philadelphiit, where
every applianee is brOught to bear to re
move all restrictions on the rate of inter
est: We hope that this proposition will
not meet with favor in the. Legislature.
The repeal of the usury laws would, in
our opiniop, be injurious to . business
throughout the 'Country generally, and
no.espeoial advantage to nail business

Loss BY THE PUBLIC Wonxs.,
Pittsburgh Gazette, remarking upon the
Annual-Report of the Auditor General;
says that ' the. Public Works of Pennsyl
vania, including the debt, thereon, have
- cost the tak. - payerk - withtn the—last - year
the sum of 86,500,000 andlrave produced
$2,206,000 t'o.pay for it;'leaving on the
- debtorside of the account $2,294,000!
According to thirrig loss by the Public
Works is equal to the, entire'amount
raised by taxation, and the people of the
State are, annually called upon to pay tax:
es not for the legitimate expenses-of the
government,• but to enrich a . hungry set
of office holders..' Notwithstanding this
"state of affairs, the Locofoces cling to
— the -- Publie Works with a leeehlike_tona- -
city. .The-'party' find vain a very con
venient_hospital establishment for . small
'politicians, while the 'big fish' managd
by contract and wholesale speculation to
fill their coffers at the eXpense of the
State. We agree with a. contemporary
that it would be well for the Legislature
to authorise an inquiry as to the entire
cost of the Main Line since its commence
ment. We moan the original cost—and
then the sums invested in reptiirs; andin
the payment of salaries,- &o. r aince: it first
became available as a channel of lrade
and travel. • Many, persons believe that
the State'Debt has been thus increased
to the extent of millions. In othe .words,
that the . Main Line is; and has en mis
managed .1
from the first, and th t hence
the people have been taxed' froM'Yiar to
year to make up. the deficiency.. •

in the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska
Act of 1854, has been returned to that

personal popularity, and intimate eonnee-•
