Caught in his own Trap.

We have seldom witnessed more thorough
exposure of inconsistency and duplicity, than is
to be found in the following expose in the Au-
gusta (Ga) Republic:
Mr. COMP Constitutional Union Presses
Most Of the presses Of the cons -itutional Union
party of Georgia, have published the letter of
the Hon. Howell Cobb, to the comm tee of the
Macon celebration Of the birthday Of Washing
ton. They accompanied its publication with
the highest encomiums Of his ability, patriotism
and devotion 10 the South Most Of them, af-
ter his election as speaker of the House OF
Representatives, attacked him in the btterest
terms, and charged him with having forfeited all
claim upon the confidence of the people of
Georgia and the South, in his appointment of
the standing committees of the House.
Among those. who have published his recent
letter.snd endorsed his purity and patriotism, the
Chronicle & Sentinel stands conspicuous
Shortly after Mr. Cobbs election as speaker
and appointment Of the committees referred TO,
the Chronicle copied the following from a North
Carolina Democratic paper:
ave say that Mr.. Cobb is not at all justifiable
for appointing those men, who have made their
ianaticsm 4 curse TO the country, upon the com
mittees he has put them upon, and where they
desire to be. We know they had the presump-
ton to demand recognition of their claims; but
they have never heretofore been recognized, and
have no more right to be recognized than would
the claims of dog to sit at his masters table.
And yet we have Sou .hern speaker for the first
time, lifting them from insignifcance into i'm
portance, admitting their claims---the claims OF
free-soilers A miserable band of fanatics, not
stronger than "a corpora's guard comparativsy
ky. A man of nervc--a Jackson or n Polk,
would never have made such appointment"
This Democratic paper thus attacked Mr.
Cobb for putting some Of the Frec-soilers upon
important committees.
The Chronicle not only copied the above np-
provingly, but assailed him in an editorial of
some length. Wecopy two sentiments only, as
follows:
Such is The manly tone of the North Caro-
Iinian, one of the organs Of the Democracy in
the old North State, in reference to the Con
gressional committees as appointed by Mr.
Cobb"
" Such are the leaders of the Democracv-thc
men who are cternaly prating about Southern
rights, and their readiness to sacrifice the Union
for them"

Railroads VI. Canals.

!AO60OAI, AFhIL j, 1901.
Railzoads VI. Canals
From an elaborate report of select committee
Of the New York legislature on the project of
enlarging the Erie and Hudson canal, we learn
that the cost OF Transporting barrel of -four by
the present canal from Buffalo to Albany is ~
cents: BY the railroad, %. This is without ref
ereDae to the interest or dividends on the re-
spsctive works. They cost about the same.--
But as tho railroads are in operation all the year,
and carry passengers and costly goods, aud are in
all these respects superior TO tho CANALS it follows
that taking all the business of the railroads to-
gether, and counting interest or dividends, the
railroads can transport any hing cheaper than
the canal. Another consideration is, that the
canal is employed to the utmost limits of its
paeity-whilst the railroad is prohibited by law
from carrying freight, unless it pays canal tolls to
the State, and hence is restrained in its business
fur below its capacity. Hence, whilst each work
Is chargeable with interest or dividends, and a
full complement Of employees, the pro rata ex-
pense Of freight on the canal is cheaper than
the railroads. Hence, 1t 10 apparent that the
railroad Is decidedly superior to the canal for all
the purposes Of travel and transportation. And
the New York, Erie and Hudson Canal, is the
most favorable instance of that sort Of public
work. It 10 an immense thoroughfare, and is
protected from competition by legislation.
Another select committee Of that legislature
very sensibly recommends the repeal of the pro-
hbition or restriction on railroad transportation
because it discourages the transit of trade
through the State of New York to its CONNER
cial emporium, because it is an Infringement of
the freedom of interstate commerce, or of the
power Of Congress to regulate it,.anl because
it is unjust to many Of the railroads.
We consider this report and the facts it con-
tains. to be final decision of the absolute supe-
riority of railroads over canals as to cheapness
of travel and transportation.
1t true that the committee, first referred to,
recommends the enlargement of the Erie canal
on the ground that it will enable it to transport
freight at lower rates than tho railroads. But
in the calculation of the cost Of transportation,
interest is not included on the immense sum
which the canal will thereby cost.
1t is thus perfectly demonstrated that the
canal system of New York, or even the boasted
main line, is losing financial operation. And
this would be obvious to everybody in six
months, if the absurd and unwarrantable law
were repealed, which requires railroads to pay
canal tolls to the State for the privilege of trans
porting freight.

Virginia.

We observe that the National InteAigencer
rejoices over the resolutions adopted by the Vir-
ginia legislature on the Compromise. Even the
New York Evening Post, free-soil paper, COM
mends them. We present these facts to the
notice of those in the Virginia Legislature who
pretended to support Southern rights.
far had the hardihood even to acquiesce formally
in the Compromise. Those which did, Georgia,
Maryland, &C., expressly and unanimously ad.
mitted its injustice Virginia is divided in opinion
on its justice, constitutionality and expedency,
but hopes if fairly executed, it will restore har-
mony. Virginia does this almost unanimously.
Virginia has thus taken her place us the most
submissive of the Southern States

"SHADRAcA," TIE FuerTIvE, IN wAvr.-Shad-
rach, whose rescue and fight from the Boston
court house, has given him notoriety above all
others of his time and race, is now in Montreal
and in state of great destitution. The Boston
Mail has seen letter from him begging small
sum of money to support life until he could gel
employment. Whether he will get it is another
question. 1t is the mischief of stealing him
away that the Abolitionists are after, not the
humanity of feeding his wants and saving him
from starvation, after the trick is successful.

says -
There are movements now making in this
part of the State Of New York, toward creating
new State of this city, Kings CO, Queens

ties on the river. We have here, within sight of
the City Hall, about a million of human beings,
and the population is rapidly Increasing with
every thing in men and means, that constitute a

York suffers from SYSTEM of unequal taxa
tion-that the city contributes this year TO the
school fund S3O5,293, Of which it will receive
back for the support Of IFS own schools only

ments Of taxes is unequal and unjust TO the
city--that while the banking capital of the city
is taxed to the full amount, sncllis not the case
in the interior counties. But the most rrevous
cause of dissatisfaction is the abuse which is
heaped upon toe city by The Albany aud other
papers, which are don- AL they can TO exaspe-
rate their readers against New York, their best

More "c,ratifioation" on Foot.

We find in the Republic the following first
rate notice. expressive Of more "gratiiicalion"
on the part Of the Presidents particular organ.
THE Hon. SOLOMON Foor.-The statement
in the st. Adams (Vermont) Messenger, so
greedily snapped at by the Boston Aaas--that
the "Republic, in summing up the next Senate,
puts down Hon. Solomon Foot as 'Free-soil' :"
lis absolutely untrue there being not accord
ing to our belief, the shadow Of foundation for
such an assertion, unless article copied by us
from the New York Journal Of Commerce a
month or two ago, and credited to that paper,
classifying MIR. Foot AS n Free-so Wing, could
be 80 construed, which we do not think it could.
We shall be most heartily gratiiied to learn, be-
yond II doubt, that Dir. Solomon Foot is not n
Free-soer,as we are already gratified to learn
that the Boston Atlas regards the term as odious,
and the application of it to a senator as equiva-
lent to saying that he lis not Whig."
AS curious and instructive, we give the arti-
cles which have "gratified' the Republic:
The Washington Republic, in summing up
the next Senate, puts down Hon. Solomon Foot
as "Free-soil." You may, also, Mr.. Republic
put down the whole Wing party of Vermont al
"Free-soil," for they all repudiate any new test
The Republic knows that Solomon Foot is q
wing, uuu HodiihS out wing, lHcTc hIt III
truer and better Wings than Vermont Wings
and the Republic and other new test organs
who are trying to put the administration in 8
false light before the people, will be obliged te
respect the stamp Of our Foot-M Alban'.
Messenger,
Ii Hon. Solomon Foot is not Wing, then W.
never expect to see one Mr.. Foot has made
his name national, by his arduous exertions il
behalf of the Wing cause. 1t is such men n.
Solomon Foot who has kept the Wing party
eter triumphant in the Green Mountain State
and yet he is put down by the Republic as not
Wing, but a "Free-soer." Suppose, in classi
flying the Senate, the Whig papers of Vernon
were to clrss John Bell, Henry Clay, Willie P
Mangum, and other Southern Senators al
''slave-soicrs' does the Republic think it woult
advance the interests of the Wing party of th,
Union Is the Wing party so strong that it ca
dispense with the support Of such men as Solo
mon Foot, and such States as old and reliable
Vermont ?-BoSton Atlas.
Now, the SEWARD organ the Albany Journal
thus carefully cuts through the slender cobwel
attachments of the Republic:
Ifsuch Wings as SOLOMON FooT are to be thu
classified, the Free-soiI paftywill be found NOR,
formidable than ever its friends had anticipated
In just sense the Vermont senator is "Free
soiler," but when the organ of the President at
tempts to make an invdious distinction between
the Whig principles Of that senator and those
who represent other Wing States, it does th,
administration manifest I'M ustice.
