Our paper is again before the public. We are
compelled in justice the patrons OF this journal
to explain the cause of It's non-nppcarance for
Tuesday and Wednesday. On Monday were
notified by The Typograph ical Association that the
prices OF pork would be raised 25 per cent til
fsrmer rates, from and after Saturday the 18Th day
Of March. Hind we been convinced Of any cause
for this rise in prices, We SHOULD have been among
the FIRST TO accede to the demand. Sumo years
since, when every other master employer in the
city refused TO into the then increased prices,
We were the first to pay them, from persuasion
that they were just and equitablc. The laborer is
worthy Of his hire in every sphere of life, accord
ing to the demand for his services. Guided by
this great rule we have ever acted in our editorial
career towards the journeymen printers, as body
Of men, exercising profession of the utmost i'm
psrtance to the public. To do them or any one
else injustice, is not IN our nature.
On receiving the notice above referred to, we de-
,ermined forthwith to advertise for printers at the
cid prices. AT once the hands in our office threw
dewa their sticks and refused TO work. This unex-
. anpled dctation to proprietor Of paper Of what
shall be published and what shall NOT, in journa.
ander his own control, merits the severest
sure, and should be frowucd down BY every good
TREND Of order and CONSTITUTE onal rights. The As
aocation itself cannot defend the act upon proper
principles. And this Is the curse Of Trades Uni
ems. Iiisto destroy all competition which is the
hsastsd guarantee Of American Liberty. To en-
Joy life, limb and liberty, as wa please under the
aw and Constitution is the palladium of our rights
II, is the meaning OF the compac, under which
We are associated. What must be that cause or
prsfes zion that fears exposition and competition
when We attempts on the part Of any body of
men to restrain the liberty of tho citizen, beyond
she provisions Of the law and the Constitution,
shsre is no setting bounds To tho acta Of such an
Irresponsible jun.a.
The editors and proprietors of the periodical
press in New Orleans, resolved resist what they
cnoeeived to be com bination ugains. their sacred
rights. But, as it ms frequently happened, cir
oums,ances prevented the adoption of prinepi L.,
and rendered it necessary for US 10 succumb We
have done so.tfon, eon,pulnon, not from convic-
eien that the Association was right in its course
Every editor and proprietor is Of this opinion, and
bat for the imperative engagements Of one of the
propretors, the would have been re- sis, ed
We pay the prices now demanded, but we con-
eeive them to be exorbtaat and unjust How.
ever, the difficulties arranged, and we shall

EAST FORK CANAL.

We find the following proceedings in re
gard to our contemplated canal, in the Jour
nal Of the goth inst.
Mr.. Clark, from the committee on canals
and internal improvements, to whom was re-
fcrred an engrosscd bill Of the House Of Req
reese natives, entitled IAN act to provide for
the survey Of the f;cst Fork Caral,'' reported
that they had considered the provisions OF
said bill, 'and instructed him 10 report il to
the Senate and recommend that !; be indetin-
itely postponed. The report was net con-
CURED in by the Senate.
On motion of Mr.. Elliot, the bill! was amen
ded by adding to the last section the follow
ing: "Provided that said survey shall be
made by the resident corps of Engineers on
the White Water Canal during the present
season, il there be a sufficient time to do the
same without interference with the progress
Of said canal or causing any additional ex-
pense to the State
Aft~r considerable debate, the bill was con-
sidered n engrossed, read a third time and
passed by The following vote:

The journal Of the Senate has been defaced.
and now wears the symbolic mourning OF fall

cd for every change that may occur in the
political opinions Of our executive officers
We do not speak Of this. with the feelings o!
q partixan. We sincerely regret it, as a blur
on the dignity Of our boosted Senate, and as
an act calculated to destroy al! confidence in
the frmness Of that body. Had the real
friends of Andrew jackson awaited his death
when their only object could have been TO
retrieve his name from the imputation Of usur-
patton. and desire to transmit it pure on

could not have objected so strongly. But
in these days Of political chicanery, we can
not but doubt the motives Of the actors, and
deplore the deed.

INDIANA LEGISLATURE.

Manv bills of local nature have passed
since our last. The surplus revenue contin-
ues to be the absorbing question, though there
is some probability that it may be settled in a
few days.
In the House, something like dozen bills
supplemental! to the bills providing for a gen.
erai system of internal improv ement, have
ton Of engrossment. These bills were gen.
orally advocated by those who offered them
in a" earnest and able manner-the vote gen.
orally stood about SO to Sc. On some the
division was nearer equal-and particularly
the project of clay turnpike commencing
at Mt. Vernon, running through New Har-
mony to Princeton. offered bv Mr.. Owen, had
near Y prevailed. Indeed if a universal feel
ing of kindness and respect for the mover of
this measure could have availed any thing
1! the sincere and indefatigabIc exer,ions with
which he has endeavore5, from the beginning
OF the session, to procure some extension of
the old system, and to accommodate those
parts OF the state which are not so immedi-
ately benefited, had alone been regarded
if the clear manner in which he set forth the
claims of that part Of the state through, which
1t was proposed to locate the road could
nave been listened to, Mr.. Ovens work
would have been engrafted on the system.
But the friends of the system felt themselves
under necessity of standing by it as nis-not
that it is perfect, or that it would be the less
useful by ENGRAVING on it some Of the many
works that have been ably and zeaiousiy ad-
vocated by the disaffected, bu, that if one adj
ditIon Is made, another, and another must be
added. until the whole system is crushed un-
der its own weight. 1t is now understood
by all parties that no additions will be madel
10 the system this session. Ga Thursday
last Mr.. Wright introduced 4 bill to classify
the public works-diyidipg them into three
classes: the Wabash and Erie canal, the
White Water canal. the Central canal, and
