female and % male performers, selected
from the most skilful and talented 0rtistes

who knew themibest. they have never
been repudiated. They are now men
high in the public confidence, and no
persons knowing them, doubt their capa-
bility or integrity. We challenge a com.
parison between the honesty, the mani
ner in which they have met and are ready
to meet Gil their liabilities, and that Of
the men assailing them. We know who
they are, and there is not child in the
street but know that. did they think that
they were dishonest, they would be the
fret men to approach them with dishonest
purposes in view.
We now predict that these three ap-
praisers will look soley at the good of the
State, they ought to do-that they will
aPpraise the lands at all they will bring,
as they ought to do-that they will show
no favors beyond what the law requires,
as they ought to do-and, furthermore,
that, when the lands are appraised, these
same men will electioneer against the
democratic party, and assert as a reason
therefore, the cruelty of the appraisers in
putting land SO high. Knowing the his.
tory Of the canal operations from the DAYS
of the old 'canaI ticket down to the
present day, we could not consent 70 see
three Of our prominent democrats thus as.
sailed in silence without exposing the I'M
princiPled set OF moral and political des.
Peradoes who have got the Journal to
publish the wilful and malicious false.
hoods which they first whispered into the
eaFs OF the Trustees too successfully.
The only thing to be feared is that these
appraisers are assassinated which would
be not improbable did their calumniators
not know that men equally honest and
eqbally bold would take their place.
