JoHN G. CALHouN's poLicY.--lt is thought BY The
most intelligent amongst us, that this nullifer has
become advocate of the Sub-Treasury scheme,
because il will aid in bring ing about his darling pro-
ject of dissolution of the Union This political
gameser sees that the late embarrasSments have de-
Stroyed almost all intercourse between the north and
soulh-hat the old commercial relations and associ-
ations between these sections of country have been
broken up; and that if he can now break up that
strong relation which exists between the government
and the people by means of the banking system, he
will only be another step nearer the accomplishment
of his damnabe designs upon our republic II is
the banking influence which binds the north, more
than any other portion OF the country to the general
governments and il is this northern consequently
which now thwartS Cahoun's dissolving planS--thiS
barrier removed, and he will be more than half The
way of his journey. Destroy the preponderance
which the north now has IN the general government
BY means OF their close connexion and the Union
will be more than half dissolved The commercial
relations between the north and south have ever been
the strongest link in the chain which bound us To-
gether--these are broken. What now remains 10
kecptogether people separated by education, customs
laws, cline habits and leelingSl Nothing but the
national compact And what prevents the breaking
of that since southern dsorganizcTs are endearorng
TO weaken II q-The weight and influence in the Ma
ional Legislature of the North Separate the north
from this Legislature, and you destroy its influence
over it, Is this not as plain as the noon day sun

WABASH AND ERIE CANAL.-The
Commercial Advertiser of Buffalo, is one
of the few ofour exchange papers which
seems to be capable ofapprcciatlng the
the great Importance OF that mighty
monument ofthc enterprise oftwo YOUTH
ful States, the Wabash and Erie Canal.
We quote from that paperthe following
language in relation to it, with this cor
re.slion, that this great line Of transpor-
itation is destined 10 be completed to the
navigable waters Of the Wabash at La
Fayelte by the first of October 1889,
ensuring a communication between the
waters Of Lake Erie and the noblest river
ofIndiana in less than t,co ucars.-Io
do Blade.
"Every year new works, whose
names are scarcely known on the sea-
board, are undertaken, which more than
rival in importance and magnitude the
boasted achievments Of eastern States.
OF this class is the Wabash and Erie ca
nal.--Few are aware Of the greatness OF
tins undertaking. 1t is twenty miles
longer than the Erie Canal, and nearly
double its present capacity. y.-Connec-
ting the waters Of Lake Erie and the
mississippi and Ohio, it passes through
the heart Of the richest agricultural re-
gion in North America. This immense
work will probably be finished in three
years, and competent Judges estimate
that its business will exceed that of the
Ohio and Erie Canal.

LEoIsLATIvE.-The principal general mat
ters now occupying the attention of this body,
are the investigations into the conduct of the
board of public works, and the doings relative
to the appointment Of s. Medary, as state
printer.
In regard to the former, there appears TO
be manifest determination on the part of the
political friends Of the board, to smother the
investigation by overlooking it, which is met
by determined opposition on the part Of the
wings. The field for political mannuvering is
now fairly open, and marching and counter
marching has commenced.
In. Medary's case, the stick seems to be
whether the state printer is an ofiice-holder in
the meaning Of the constitution, and all the
talent Of the Senate is arrayed on one or the
other side Of this important constitutional
question. The Hon. Wm. Mclaughlin Of
RichIand, is the champion on the part Of the
state printer, and the way be pours forth the
torrents Of his eloquence in the mattcr--aint

sing remark, is frem the pen of a correspond
ent of the Southern Literary Messenger. 1t

the style, as well as for the honorable men,
ton of our place. He need not wait long to
find Maumee occupying place on the map,
and the name of our town will be waited to
his ears many time, before his pen has lost
its playfulness and age has sobered down the
flights of his fancy.

The long expected movements upon
Grand Brule are at last made. This
morning, the force destined for the cx-
pedition left town. Gen. Sir John Col
borne, Commander-in- chief, leaves town
at two o'clock, to take charge Of the ex-
pedition.
The strength Of the expedition shows
the reason OF the apparent long delay
that has occurred before sending it out.
The rebel force at Grand Brue is COM
pletely hemmed in. Behind them are
the two companies Of regulars at CARL
lion, and the loyal volunteers at St. An.
drews, and the Seigniora Of Argenieuil.
The force that now attacks them in front
is such as to leave them no chance for
momentary success. The body1of men
in their rear takes away their poor hope
of escape.

the earliest authentic information that
can be procured of the expedition.
