CURIOUS SToRY.-The State OF New York, in
stead Of being in debt for her Enc Canal, and likely
to remain 30 for years to come, is in truth great
heiress, well able to pay her creditors and have
handsome surplus for pin money. We are happy TO
make the announcement, and as some people will
be curious to know particulars, we give them.
Trinity church, it is said, has no deed and never
had any, for the thirty or thirtyve millions OF dol
lars worth OF real estate which she has in posses
sion and enjoys the rents Of 1t belonged, up to the
revolution, to the crown of England, and was then
known as the "king's farm" 1t passed, by the
revolution, to the ownership of the state Of New
York; and to the people Of the State of New York,
say, it rightfully belongs at this moment. II
our Legislature does its duty-and we trust city
delegation will urge it forward-one year hence the
Empire State will be in possession Of her own
To be the heiress Of thirty millions insures COM
Portable little independence to good mother and
will relieve all her loving children from the necessity
OF paying taxes for her support.
There Is one small question however, which we
would like to have answered not that it is Of the
least consequence, but we have such an inqusitive
temperament. How many members of the New
York delegation. are tenants Of Trinity Church I
This question may not have any thing to do with the
action Of the Legislature, but curiosity is with us
constitutional infirmity. We only ask, because we
would like to know.
