SHEN NAVIGATION.

On our first page will be found the report of
MIR. Fisk upon the Shenandoah River improve
mcnt. Though not protesting to be final or
complete, it is sufficiently clear in its statements
and will speak for itself.
We confess ourselves disappointed in the csti-
mated cost of the improvement. We had no j.
dea that slack-water navigation for boats of
only 80 tons would cost 16 Or $4,000 per mile
Six hundred thousand was we had thought, the
outside estimate. II however the cost will re-
ally be so heavy, we fear that the engineer is
mistaken in his belief that the trade of the river
will justify the outlay. The gross revenue could
scarcely, to the best of our knowledge reach
$4,000. The receipts of the Roanoke Compa-
ny, whose works are of about the same length,
and drain an extent of country atoning by it's
greater breadth for inferior productiveness, are
only some 900 annually. If our impressions
as to the possible revenue, say $4,000 nett, or
per cent on two millions, be near the mark,
the question with the farmers along the river is
reduced to the point whether or not the enhan-
cedsvalue of their land and produce would be
sufficient to cover the remaining four per cent !:
in other words whether 81 300, 900 would be adj
ded to the value of all the real estate along the
river. They will we think find it to their adj
vantage to examine the probabilities of greater
gain prorortionatet to Inc outlay resulting from
cheaper improvement, either in the hands of the
present Company, Or ON some such plan as that
adopted in the construction of the Rappahan-
mock canal
A railroad from Winchester to Staunton would
cost probably half million less than Mr. Fisk's
river plan; and would pay stockholders better
1t would be assisted by a heavy travel, which
the canal never could have. A railroad, how
ever, for various reasons, few would at present
mdertake.-lFanchester Vuginian.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

TheNPresident of the U. S. has so many appli-
cants for office who throng the White House,
that he has been unable to send to the Senate
for their consideration, the names of those per-
sons he is DESTROYS of sending as Ministers to
foreign countries We have heard it stated that
there are 70 applicants for the office which Jas.
Points, Esq, now holds, as Marshal in aheWes-
tern District of Virginia and from what we
learn, we doubt whether one in the 10 will be
able to GUST him. We have also understood that
one Of the Wing members of Congress had said,
there were 500 applicants for Office in his Dis
trict, although there We're not more than two
offices which could be given! Oh these spoils-

THE INAUGURAL.

There ia an omission in this paper (ays the
Unior1 Vi inch strikes every one who reads 1t
with care. The President does not initiate his
predecessor in disclainling all intention OF run
ming Tor second term.
He does not expressly name the veto, or the
course which he means TO pursue i'll relation to
its exercise. But his declaration in regard to
the regulating power OF Congress is tantamoufit'
in large variety of questions, to its abandon
ment BY the President, After specifying seve-
raj constitutional measures which he may con-
eeive it his duty to recommend to Congress, and
among these the important and debatable pow
er of improving our rivers and harbors, he adds
this clause I'But it is for the wisdom of Con-
gress itself, in hich all Legislative powers are
vested by the constitution, to regulate these and
other matters Of policy" Are we to understand
by this that if, alter recommending "consltu-
tional measures Congress should think fit to
pass Unconstitutional regulations, he will still
waive his right and his duty, and at once sane
ton their measures Ii this be his doctrine
how can he take for his guide" the example of
the Father of his Country, who vetoed two bills
and one of these not Oil the grounds of uncon-
stitltionality1 There is a mystery in all this
which we do not pretend to understand.
The President takes another position which is
not comparable with the opinion of Mr.. Jeffer-
son, if he is to be taken as "a gudeH among 'the
earlier Presidents" The inaugural says, that
''for the Interpretation Of that instrument, (the
constitution shall look to the decision. of the
Judicial tribunals established by its authority,
and to the practice Of the government under the
earlier Presidents, who had so large share in
its forn1ation'' Mr. Jefferson the contrary,
maintained, that as the President himself takes
an oath to support the constitution, his own con-
science must be his own guide in discharging
the executive functions Mr.. Madison in one
case. adopted somewhat different rule; but, in
another, he directly conflicts with the inaugural.
In his celebrated veto, the last act of his admin
istration, he expressly denies the authority of
the Federal Government over internal improve
nlents; and he, too, was among the earlier Pre-
eidents.
But the more we scan the inaugural, the more
difficult we find it to reconcile its several posi-
aions-few and uncommitted as they are. 1t
contains no suggestion, as was expected upon
California or the Wilnot Proyiso.

METHODIST Episcopal CONFERENCE.-THE letter
from Staunton, to the Howard Gazette, dated on
the 18th inst, says:
The conference commenced its session this
morning at O'Clock, in the Methodist E. Church.
Bishop Morris is present, and he appears to be
in good health. He opened the conference with
the usual exercises. A large number of the
preachers are present, and in good health. Not
9. death has occurred among them this year
rapid, The usual committees were appointed.
and five districts were gone through in the ex-
animation of character. But three only remain ;
so that we have at present bright prospect of a
short session, which among the preachers seems
very desirable.

DCT In another column will be found letter
of Gov Floyd of Va, to the Speaker of the
House of Delegates, in which he informs the
Legislature that he made a demand upon the
wing abolition-Governor FoRD, of Ohio, for the
surrender of a fugitive slave, the property of
Mr.. Samuel B. Brown, of Augusta, said slave
being also charged withthe crime of larceny. The
abolition Governor refuses to acknowledge the
legality of the demand, and the consequence is,
the crime must go unpublished and the owner
lose his slave. Had the gallant Col. Weller
been elected Governor Of Ohio, this slave would
have been surrendered to the constituted au-
thorities of Virginia, but we refer the reader
to the article itself, for particulars. We would
respectfully suggest to Mr.. Brown the propriety

THE BaLTIsoRE CONFERENCE
Jan. 20, 4s4o.


Closed its arduous labors, after an interesting
session Of niue days, on Thursday last about
noon. The convocation Of 80 many Ministers
of the Gospel fabout 20O) in our town, has not,
we hope, been without its advantages It has,
indeed, been most gracious time, and many,
very many, of our citizens, will often recur to
the meeting of the Baltimore Conference, in
Staunton, because of the pleasing associations
herewith connected. We would that our pen
were felicitous enough to depict some of the
scenes we have witnessed But few days ago
most OF these persons were strangers to our peo-
ple-now they are e1shrined in the hearts best
afections-and though unused to the melting
we saw these friends taking leave Of acquaintan-
ces 80 recently made The warm pressure of
the hand-felt, perhaps, for the last time-the
earnest wish for each others welare--and, if
they met not again OH earth, the ardent hope
expressed, that ALL might meet in that bright
world above caused many an eye to glisten
with a tear. Mutually pleased with each other
the time passed pleasantly away until the hour
of separation came, ard now that their labors
were over, the Ministers seemed III haste to de-
part. The good wishes of our people follow the
Ministers and the blessing of the Ministers re-
main with the people. About 60 left on Thurs
day, and a very few remained over Friday.
It is unnecessary to note the proceedings of
the Conference up to Thursday-they were of
such character as seldom find their way in
the newspapers, though all will be published in
the Minutes. On Monday night "a discourse was
delivered on the Sunday School Union, and
collection taken up amounting to near 5000, and
on Tuesday night an address was delivered for
the Missionary cause, and collection taken up
amounting to upwards of $500.
Towards the close of the Conference there
was placed in the hands Of the Bishop series
Of resolutions, signed by numerous citizens Of
Stanton, in which they expressed their high
qualification at having the Conference meet in
our town. This was responded to by resolutions
from the Conference, in which were expressed
for the citizens, the thanks of that body for the
Kindness and hospitality shewn them during
their sojourn among us. So may it ever be. We
regret that the Secretary to the Conference, in
his anxiety to return home, neglected to leave a
copy of these resolutions for publication, and we
must await their receipt by mail.
The next session of the Conf renee is to be
held in Alexandria.
