CONNECTIcUT RIVER. On Wednesday
last the water was let into the canal around
Enfield Falls, to such height as to admit
of the passage of boats, and for the first
time, fifteen boats passed through the canal
on their way up the river. The length of
the canal is about six miles; its breadth
and depth are such as to admit not only the
ordinary fiat bottomed boats used on the
river, but steam boats of much larger
draught. There are three locks at the low
er end of the falls of about 10 feet lift each,
built in the most durable manner, of stone
laid in water cement, the mason work of
which is not surpassed in any similar work
IN this country. There is another lock at
the head of the canal, together with mas
sive breast wall, which are built in the
same substantial manner.

PEACE IN EUROPE.

By an arrival at New York, on Sunday last,
papers are received from London to the Sth OF
October, with accounts from Constantinople to
Sept 10TH The most important intelligence is
that of the final signature of the TREATY OF
PEACE between Russia and Turkey, which took
place on the 18th of September We have
room only for the following extracts -
Gen. Paskewitsch has met with some further
successes in Asia. After sangunary conflict
in which the Turks are said to have lost 300
killed, and $50 prisoners, he took possession OF
Char in the neighborhood of Trebisond
There are several accounts as to the nature
of the conditions of peace. The following are
given as the most authentic -
The Porte TO pay to Russia, for the expenses
of the war, 25 or as other accounts say, 80 mil
lions of silver rubles, for which period OF
twenty years is to be granted, during which the
principalites and the fortress of Silistra should
remain in the possession of the Russians
The payment is in addition of the indemnity
to Russian subjects, stipulated in the Conven-
ton of Akermann, Gall the articles of which
the Porte again agrees to fulfl,) and which
amounts to AZ millions of Turkish piastres
The said payment to be made in three install
ments, After the payment of the first, the
Russian army to retire to the Balkan on that
of the second, ouer the Balkan and on that Of
the third, O0er the Danube.
The fortresses of Akhalzik, Akhaikalaki, Pott
and Anapa, in Asia, to be ceded to Russia
In Europe the fortresses of Tournoul, Kale
Giurgevo, and Braiow, ION the left bank of the
Danube,) to be razed, and not again rebuilt
The five districts hitherto separated from
Servia to be reunited to that province, and tt
enjoy the same privileges.

WORCESTER:
WEDNESDAY, NOV. IS, 1929.

The Texas. By the brief extract which will
be found in another column, from the Speech Of
Gov. Pope, of Arkansas, to the Legislature Of
that territory, it will be seen, that the politi.
clans of the west are strongly calculating on
the annexation of the Texas to our territory
The allusion of Gov. Pope to the subject, con.
firms the opinion that the attempt is to be Sc.
riously made by our government He is known
to be in the confidence of Gen. jackson, and. as
Governor of territory, appointed by the Ma
tional Government, he would not be likely TO
allude to the subject in the manner he has done.
unless he felt authorised SO to do, by informa-
ton derived frem the highest source.
1t is now said that various other extensive
grants of land in Texas, have been made by the
Mexican functionaries, protesting to exercise
authority in that province, in addition 10 that of
4o millions OF acres of which we spoke in for
mer number; so that if our Government should
purchase the territory of the Mexican govern
ment, it would obtain but little in public lands,
toward remunerating it for the cost of the pur-
chase. These grants are mostly in the hands
OF American citizens, and the influence which
they will have, in the decision of this question,
will be immense. Take, for instance, twenty
or thirty millions of acres of that land, and di-
vide it among one or two hundred of the most
influential men of the south and west, and with
such stimulus, the exertions they would make,
and the effect which those exertions would pro-
duce, may easily be estimated 1t would induce
effort hard TO be resisted. 1t 10 not to be OK.
pected that those who hold these grants, should
omit to avail themselves of any advantage of
this kind within their reach. If, by sacrifice
of one half of their grants, they can procure the
annexation of the country to our government,
they will be immensely the gamers, in the en-
HANGED value of the remainder. We do not
suppose they will offer tracts of land as direct
brides to members of Congress, but their object
may be more effectually accomplished, by max
ing all such as they choose, interested in the
grants, by fair sale, at price so low as to in
duce any one to run the risk of purchase.
We fear that the public are not sufficiently
aware of the Importance of this project, to the
welfare of the Union, and of the New England
States in particular. More extensive than the
whole of the Atlantic States north of the Poto-
mac, if the Texas is once annexed to our terri
tory, the equipoise, heretofore maintained be-
tween the free and the slave-holding States, will
be destroyed, the seat of government will pass
the Alleghanies, and be located in Kentucky or
Tennessee and New England, and, indeed, the
whole of the Atlantic States, will become dis
tant, and comparatively, unimportant, trans
montana appcndages to the vast territory, and
the numerous and populous States on the west
of the mountains.

STATE OF LOUISIANA. The government oil
this State is very peculiarly situated in conse-
quence of the death of the late Governor
Much excitement appears to exist in New Or
leans The Constitution of the State requires
the Governor to be possessed of real estate to
the value of $4,000, to be 35 years of age, and Ia
have been resident of the State years pre-.
vious to his election 1t also declares, in case
of the death or removal of the Governor, the
President of the Senate shall be Governor, un.
til another be duly qualified. The present
President of the Senate (Mr. Benvaris) pos
sesses real estate to the value of $l000-is but
81 years of age, and has resided in the State
only years. The Governor is elected for 4
years, the President of the Senate for year
The question appears to be if the President Of
the Senate holds tho Office of Governor for the
unexpired term, which is years, or if he
should be reelected President of the Senate
how can he act as Governor when he does moi
possess the constitutional qualifications.
SGSannah Republican.
The above article has circulated very gener
ally through the newspapers, without comment
We do not see any cause for doubt or excite
ment on the subject. The only question il
involves is settled by the constitution itself
ih"I oItiOle IequiIeS certdln quallncdtlOnS, spec
fled above, TO make man eligible for elcctio,
to the office of Governor. But it also provides
in certain contingency, that person, not SC
qualified, may exercise the duties Of the office
That contingency has occurred, and the person
on whom the duties of tho Office devolves, al
though ineligible to be elected to the Office, il
as consttutionaly qualified to discharge its du
ties till another person is elected and qualified
as i would DO possible for him to be-becaust
the constitution has so provided.
We believe that, in most of tho States, il
case of the death of the Governor, the duties
Of his office devolve on some other officer, fo
whose election to his Office, the constitution
does not require tho same qualifications tina: i
