Mr. John Daughet,y to the next Legislature, in re-
laion to our public improvements. His plan is to
separate the connection ofthe government with the
publ works, ly leasing them o't u individuals:
"Thc present rate for motive power on the rhil.
ade'phia and Columbia rail road, is equal to one
dollar and thirty cents per ton Of 1000 81 and has
heretoorl been insufficient, to meet the cost of the
Commonwealth. Under a system Of free iraje the
cost of motive power can he maintained at forty
cents per ton, from the inclined plane ne IT Phila-
delphia TO Columbia, or from Philadelphia when
this inclined plane shall be dispensed with
Thus a locomotive drawing 100 tons, can pcr~
form "trip from the inclined IlIne, u Columbia
and return, at expense Of twenty five TO thirty
dollars. Allowing the same to h we full To-

per ton. Blu, continuous road Of several hundred

Obituary.
1She was confined some weeks of dist ressing
illness, which she bore with Christian patience
and Resignation. She has beaE worthy member
Of the North Congregational Church in this town
for seventeen years. In hor exit, society has
met with loss, and her dear Husband is deprived
of loving and atectionate companion in life,
and altho' she did not know the anxious feelings
Of the own mother while she looks upon the
tender offspring of her own breast, yet she full
filed the duties of"the mother to one who now
feels the loss to De irreparabl+. The relationship
she sustained towards the writer, has made him
10 sympathise with the other relatives of the
deceased, and while he mourns her loss, he feels to
hope that his loss is her gain
Her months of affection are DER,
Her days and her nights of distress.
We see her in anguish no more,
She has gained happy release.

IMPORTANT To OWNERS OF HoRsEs.-A
Frenchman by the name of Jopy, now resident in
Poland, has invented new method of shoeing
horses, for which the Emperor has awarded him
fifty thousand rubes, besides an exclusive pa
tent Jony covers the entire hoof with iron. and
the base of his shoe, or, as it is called, sandal, is
perfectly smooth. This method of his is being
adopted in all parts of Russia. 1t requires nei-
Their nail nor screw it is extremely cheap, and
has the important characteristic of great light
ness. Horses whose hoofs have been destroyed
by bad shoeing, are, by the use of these "hippo
sandals, restored in short time to their former
state of efficiency, and may be used as soon as
provided with them. Some horses have been
brought to Mr.. Jony's smithy, which could
scarcely Imp along, and with their hoofs in so
lamentabe state, that the common mode ofshoe-
ing could not haye been applied to them but af-
ter performing slight operation upon them, and
putting new sandal on their feet, they were
sent back to their owners in comparatively
sound state, and fit for work.

Governor Kent has lately made tour through
the Aroostook country, to examine it personally,
ascertain the wants of the Settlers and be prepar-
ed to recommend the best means of promoting
and protecting the new settlements. There is
now small but sufficient force at Fort Fairfield,
maintained at the joint expense of Maine and
Massachusetts. Mr.. Hamlin, the Land Agent,
went up to Fish River and Madawaska. We
learn from the Province papers, that there are
only about 80 soldiers at Madawaska, the remain
der having been ordered up to Degelc and Tenn
,iscouata Lake. Trespassers do not operate much
in the summer season, after getting their logs
down in the spring We believe trespassng on
this side of the ST.. John has been nearly stopped.

Con gross.

We have omitted to make extended record
pfthe proceedings in Congress for the past week,
as those proceedings have consisted, almost en-
tirely of discussions upon the several matters
now under consideration. When action is had,
which we trust will soon be the case we shall
record every item ofimportance to our readers
The discussions, may be important for the most
part, in getting at the final and most desirable
aul but it is the result alone, that can afford ma
terial interest to the people at large, The Fs-
cal Bank project is the absorbing question now
under debate. For several days the discussion
turned upon the " branching power" but yet so
far as definite action is concerned, we have moth
ing to record. That it will pass pretty nearly as
now proposed, is perhaps quite certain. We shall
soon see.
The General Bankrupt Law, will probably re-
ceive some definite action before the close of the
session though it is barely possible, that it may
tbe delayed until the regular session. From n
message accompanying the Memorial of the cti-
.zens of New York, we discover the gratifying
fact, that President Tyler fully concurs in the
opinion that such law should be enacted, upon
such basis TO include all classes, and thus af-
ford measure Of material and permanent relief
The Distribution Bill, is like wise under dis
>eussion. Mr. CiDori of this State enlightened
Congress couple ofdays in respect to the con-
additionally of this project The first day he
took ppe view of a very important point connect
ed with this question, and the next day used him
Oelf up completely through forgetfulness we pre-
sume) by assuming another Numerically oppos-
ed. Speeches ofthis kind afford some grounds
for the charge Of the locos, that much time is
wasted, and public money squandered. They
are welcome 10 all tie comfort they may derive
from it,
The Bill for the reiief Of Mrs Harrison has
been signed by the .Presidcnt and returned to
Congress. This affords theiocps n "crumb of
comfort They are quite busy row in charging
."extravagnnce" upon the Wings for Going what
four-iilhs of the people of this patton expected
they would do-aEd whatthey clearly sytoi.id do.
Such spirit as is evinced by the locos upon this
subject, is disgracefu to the Country.
