i MARvLANp.-Gov Grason. in his mes.
sage to the Legislature of Maryland, states
that the loans and taxes authorized by the
last Legislature will fall much short ofthe
estimate. and that tie State will be without
the means of paying the interest upon its
debts On the ensuing LIST OF January. The
debts Of the state amount to Sl5,2l3, 900.
The principal cause of its embarrassmeats
is TO be found in the unproductiveness of
its loans and investments in the Chesa-
j, peake and Ohio Canal Company. which
amount to upwards of S7,000,0O0. He
f Acknowledges the importance of complet-
, ing this canal, but confesses that the State
! is entirely without the means. 1t would
be unavaliing he says. to attempt to bor-
, row the money on the credit of the Com
i monweahh, or to force new issue of bonds
