Opeouon Canal.-We have the pleasure to
announce to the people OF Berkeley, that Messrs.
Purcell and Hage. Engineers in the service OF the
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company. detached
for the purpose Of surveying and estimating the
cost of a canal from the mouth Of Opequon to
Martinsburs. have commenced their abors, The
route has been examined, aud the report OF the
Engineers may be expected IN few weeks.
We have understood from the gentlemen en-
gagged in this service that The improvement OF the
navigation Of Opequon is feasible and expedivnt
far bey ond their expectations. Only SO feet Ct
Iockaee will be necessary from it TO the mouth of
Tuscarora; and if the improvement snail be CONT
nued to Mar,in,bsrg the lockage will be iucreas
ed 58a feet The expediency OF this however
they consider questionable.
We have understood that canal 10 be cut
along the banks will not be recommended, but
merely an improvement Of the bed Of the stream
which can be done with twGnew dams snd the
raising Of two mill dams already on the Creek
The consequence of this, will be that but little
land injured by the work. It is even doubtful
whether the necessity Of a tow path may not be
superseded BY the application of steam, whch the
Engineers think may be used with great success
an economy.
We shall aDxiously wait for the report Of the
Engineers, and shall hail the commencement Of
this work as a new and important era in the his.
tory Of this country.-Marfinsburg GAG.

The Governors Meslge, though in ge-
neral good, contains scie opinions which
the great majority ofte people will cordi-
ally condemn.
His views in regartto an increase ofthe
Judges salaries, are MUST and oppressive.
The trainers Of the Constitution, who had
the power to enlarge ne sum, no doubt duly
considered the importance Of the subject,
and put them to what they believed an adj
equate compensation, leaving them on q
basis SO certain, az not to be diminished
without constitutional change.
An attempt to sadie the public with fresh
grievances, at theFery time they are ma.
king efforts to getrid of odious taxes and
expensive litigaticns, can only have q ten
dency to rouse their feelings and excite
their discomfort.
The salaries as now fixed by law, arc
believed to be ample and sufficient for rea'
sonable men. If labour be the ground o.
complaint-increase theumount before jus
tlces ~f che Peace, TO l<~-e 90 fva hundred
dollars. They are-not so ignorant as somt
Of our gentry suppose,
The great body of the people, are in ia
YOUR of an increase of the magistrates iu
risdiction. There can be no doubt on thi:
point. If any member of the Court is dis,
satisfied with the compensation, let him re.
sign, and not manifest disposition to en-.
crease tho public burdens, which ALWAYS
falls heaviest on the poorer classes.
There will be no difficulty in filling the
vacancies with competent men. Salarie,
should be competent and no more-when.
ever they become burden, and lure fol
ambitious aspirants, and restless politicians
the people have cause to complain.
The great object in calling the conven.
ton, was to get rid of unnecessary taxes.
If so, why encrease them? The people
are the best judges oftheir own wants, and
will speak when their rights are assailed.
Inc Legislature represent them and will
do them justice.
Those who live at ease, at the public ex.
pense, forget the wants ofthose in the hum.
bier walks of life. They forget too, that
high salaries do not command the best ia.
Tents or the best men. Like sinecures thew
are repugnant to republican institutions and
subVersiye ofcommon JUSTICE.

An order in Council was issued on the
3rd Of December, declaring that the order
issued on the 9th of November, for the
blockade Of the Dutch ports, does not ex-
tend to the ports belonging to the King Of
the Netherlands, either in the East OF
West Indies, or in Africa or America.
Another order was issued on the same
day permitting all vessels under Dutch
colors, having cargoes on board consisting
Of perishabls articles, and which shall have
been, or hereafter may be, detained under
the embargo laid by the Order in Council
Of the 9th Of November last, or that have
been, or may hereafter be, sent in by any
of his Majesty's ships of war in pursuance
Of such order, be forthwith released, and
that all such vessels, with either cargoes
consisting of perishable articles as afore.
said, shall be permitted to proceed on their
respective voyages.

Addresses to the King against the Dutch
war were getting up in all parts of Great

occasion.

All preach humility, none practice it
The master thinks it is doctrine for his
servants; the workings for the clergy: and
the clergy for their congregations.
The difference between happiness and

Reproach not thy wife with bitterness,
If she gives sustenance to thy son, lest he
should swallow with her milk the tears Of
his mother.
Death opens the door to fame, and closes
it to envy; it breaks the chain ofthe captive,

hands of new master.
There is nothing farther or nearer, more
