the correspondent of the Charleston Courier, was
actually worth in fees last year. twenty thousand
dollars 1t is said that it will be worth thirty thou
SAND dollars next year. So it is the most lucrative
office in the gift of the government, and much
more SO than the Presidency ITSELF for it is not
encountered with expenses. This Consulate and
that at Rlo Janeiro, the most lucrative Consul

AMERICAN TELEGRAPH
THE CRoss-CUT CANAL.
To The Editors Of he Americdn 7slegraph.

TO The Editors Of the american Telegraph.
GENTLEMEN: It i'll becomes the wealthy city
of Baltimore to be envious or jealous OF her
ancient sister Alexandria lest she should obtain
fair share of her legitimate trade. The time
was when she was the larger seaport; and that
she may recover some Of her ancient renown is
the wish of many patriotic heart. Long and
anxiousy have her enterprising citizens looked
| to the completion Of the canal, to revive her
| dropping energies and now that the prize is
within her grasp, the proud and selfish City d
Monuments is taking measures to cut her off,
| and defeat and blast her fond hopes Of honor.
able competition in commerce and manufac.
| lures
| But, we may smile at the dilemma Of our great
sister. Having tried from the first to defeat
the canal, by running railroad parallel with
it, and thus cut off and divert the trade, and
secure to herself the monopoly, she now finds
that the canal will carry large tonnage on its
bosom to Alexandria; and to draw this COM
merce from its natural outlet, the lateral canal
must be made.
But thereby hangs tale !" for if this ex-
pensive work should be done, then the railroad
will be injured, and Washington will obtain
water-power. ON her northern confines and the
additional impetus which will be given to bust
ness will build up part of Washington now
lying dormant. Their united interests will
then carry the canal to the Ohio, and thus open
an artery for the commerce of the West, which
will build up not only Washington, but George
town and Alexandria also. Baltimore would
be much benefited, no doubt, but would realize
the truth of an old saying, that the prosperity
of one neighbor is the prosperity of another. =
