the former Agent HOWARD, was continued and
had commenced upon his twentieth year,-who now
most respectfully reports, as follows viz THAT the

was present in the Legislature whom the committee
reported, adverse to the building of Bridge that
place, and were directed to take back the papers and
bring in a bill for immediate action to determine,
whether, consttutonally, an obstruction could be
thrown over the Hudson when the General Govern
ment had improved the navigation by removing I'M
pediments and deepening its channel, far above such
place, is the question. Now that noble River being
the ne, from the high seas and Atlantic Ocean to the
trade of the Green mountain State of course the Peo
pies Agent could not but have deep Interest, in the
result which may soon be known. That on the 9th
he left in the Steamer Utica for New York, on which
passage Lieutenant Governor Bradlsh was called to
the chair, j. Fennimore Cooper, secretary, and the
meeting being addressed by Major General Sanford
whereupon unanimous expression of thanks was
voted to Captain Shultz, by the Lady and Gentlemen
passengers for his interchangeable enterprise and exer
tous in ploughng way through the ice from Pough
keepsc to Albany thereby atiording pleasurable TRIP
by water instead Of dangerous through mud b.
land to New York.
That having arrived at the great commercial cmpo
rum of the Union after winters absence cheer

without exceptions, proffered their every effort If

From the Globe of October 2, 1898.
The opinion of WAsHISGToN, that to employ IL,
hieh offices men opposed TO The Government, is pc.
Htical suicide is EMiSETLY JUST. An Administra.
ton which pracses this principle finds ilself as il
were, in hostile camp. Those who are to carry Out
it, throw every obstacle in the way of Their
execution. Nay more; they are ever in confidential
communication with the enemy, to whom they reveal
itspurposes in advance, and whom they furnish with
distorted misrepresentation instead of correct in.
formation, to be used against those by whom they
are employed. They turn facilities and advantages
Of official position into instruments against the Gov
ernment which they should sustain with corda
and energetic, not grudng, discharge Of their o1icia
duties &c. &c.
From the Globe of June 10, 1870
"For the sake Of the countr, at large, we hope tc
'see nec infusion of energy into all the public
'povmen,s At Washington, where bus mess has beer
suffered to stagnate in the same hands for the ten
part of a century. This can only be impaired by
bringing from the country fresh body Of intelligent
Industrious and JEALOUS DEMOCRATS, who. having
been reared in the healthy atmosphere of tilds anc
woods, will bring to the discharge of public tru.t:
minds and bodies uumpaircd by the infection of city

The tables are turned and the Globe is o
a very different opinion. Itwould now have
the Wing Administration place itself "in {
hostile camp" and commit political suicide
by "cmploying in high Offices men oppostt
to it, We think the "engincer is blown "
