CLTWe copy the following from the Washington
correspondence Of the y. Y. Post. 1t Will be seen
that IN this instance Clay has headed" the " Cap
tain" and gratlfed his excessive vindictiveness
against hlm. The President recommended the APP
poin,meut of Mr.. Barker under the influence rather
of personal than political feeling, as lac had saved
the life Of the Presidents brother during the late
war. Mr.. Clays malgnancy pauses at nothing that
will secure its qualification
MAJOR Barker, the able and eiicien, first Comp
troller Of the Treasury, who nominated by Pre-
sdent Tyler, has been rejected by the Senate by a
strict party vote of l. to %. MAJOR Barker was
fret appointed TO this office by Mr. Van Barren. In
place Of Governor Wolf aud removed by Gen
eral Harrison, and Mr.. Forward appointed IN his
place. Upon the resignation OF Mr.. Ewing and the
appointment of Mr.. Forward To be Secretary OF the
Treasury, Major Barker was restored 10 his former
Office by President Tyler. Nothing was urged
against his private character or ms qualifications.
IL IS considered here part OF settled ana deter
mined plan OF Clay and his friends 20 break down
the President. 1t cannot be that the honest por-
ton OF the wings Will sanction this course OF pro-
ceeding. nor will the democracy stand by and see
man who had the moral courage 20 veto two bans
bills and who, IN his person and manners, strikngy
illustrates the beautiful simplicity of old fashioned
JefiersonIan republlcanIsm, thwartcd ia hs honest
endeayors 10 promote the best interests ct his coun
try. We know the wings will never forgive him
for defeating their scheme fasten upon the country
another Biddle Bank nor will the people forget his
firmness in thus maintaining their rights against
the powerful olIgarchy arrayed against him.

ARNOLD, Of Tennessee, IS at present the Big
BLACKBOARD Of the House of Representatives, at
Washington. Wise has assembled two pegs and
Profit one, in the public estimation since the COM
mencement of the present session. BY the way.
nothing more strongly evinces the Slight improve
ment of Profit, than the fact that the coHsmptire
federal newspapers in his district are abusing him
more and more virulently.

IMPORTANT FAcr.-Our examination ct the tes-
tmony of witnesses at the late invest CATION Of the
officers of the U. :. Bank in Philadelphia was 20
cursory, that we overlooked the following important
fact which we find stated in the Natchez Free
Trader OF a late date
The investigation of the charges against Bddle
and others. lately had before recorder Naux, has
developed some interesting Information. Mr.. jon
athan Patterson who had been teller in the inst
tuition from l. 10 It's death his evidence let out
the secret that from time mmemoral or while IT was
the great regulator of the Government, before
the United States Bank of Pennsylvania, the direc-
tors were IN the practice of taking whatever money
they wanted aud putting memorandum IN the tel
ler's drawer which were counted as cash. Mr..
John Andrews, one of those bound over, got at one
time on these memorandum much four hun
dred thousand dollars, and then he was suffered "a
take the memora ndums out of the drawer and there
the matter ended SO lar as the knowledge of the tel
Ter extended how the debt was paid was never
known to him. 4 pretty concern to have charge OF
the government funds. 1t for not believing
these memorandum as good as the government
money that Gen. Jackson denounced from
Maine to Mexico.

The VEro.-In his reply to Mr.. Clay's recent
assault upon the Constitution in the L. ). Senate,
Mr.. Buchanan. SAID. in relation to the veto power
particularly that he considered as but one oithose
checks of which our system of Government furnish
es so many examples. Mr. Gays principal argu-
ment, that this was a government IN which the ma
iortv should rule. and any thing IN II which coun-
teracted the popular Will should be removed, would,
said Mr.. b. apply with equal force to the existence
of the Senate OF the United States IN winch states
with less than fourth the population OF the 1 =
mon. send majority Of the Senators, and who ex-
ercise the veto bills passed by the popular body

WHITE WATER CANAL.-We have heard it stat
ed that those interested IN this work viii take adj
vantage of the provisions of Mr. Marsha's bill,
in endeayoring to get up company to finish the
work, as offering better inducements than the bill
introduced by Mr.. Parker, having special reference
10 THIS work alone.
The length OF the White Water Canal from the
Ohio river at Lawrenceburgh, TO the national road
at Cambridge city, is 40 miles cost under the es-
Inmates of 1899, when finished 81 j67 ,470. The
canal has been completed, and is now in use from
the Ohio Brookvllle, distance of 81 miles
at a cost of s66l ,66j. Between BrooLye aud the
national road, work has already been done to the
amount of 1851 800. Agreeably to the old es,i-
mate il Will require. to finish to the national road
a sum of S56j, 236 But those who have had the most
experience, and most competent Judge in this
matter, say, that regarding prices generally, at
this time particularly of labor and provisions, 500
600 will be ample sum to complete the canal
agreea ly to the charter
The lateral canal from Harrison to Cincinnati, a
distance of p miles, will be completed, and open
for navigation, early in the spring OF 1912. The
length oil the line from Cincinnati to the national
road, is about - miles
At almost any point of the line of the White Wa
ter Canal, any desirable amount of water power
may be had, and there Is no valley IN the West
fertile and productive. and few, If any, better
improved than the White Water Valley.
