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.

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 men anywhere. . • • AITOINTMENT OF JUDGES.--7The „Su= preme Court has decided juli)r of Jedgw MaxwelLeoptinuing l itt office, and thus,austnitied the rikhtorthe 'ClOvernor of the State to appeifit a judge to fill a vacancy for)lttrbalailhe of a deceased or resigning-judge's term.

' - ' 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.. • 61E070 . ES IN THE SENATE.—It is re marked as worthy of' note that not , one Senator from a free State, who took part in the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, has been returned to that body. Even General Cass, whose great personal popularity, and intimate eonnee-• tion with public affairs, for many• years, seemed to give, him a 'prescriptive right to partieipate•in the honors and responsi bilities of office; has been &placed •in the Senate, by a new : man, having for feited the a confidenee of those yho . so long delighted to honor him :.
