The Canal Board.

We notice that a number Of democratic papers
in the State complain, and with much justice too,
of somo appointments made by the present board
Of Canal Commissioners. The Easton .4rgts, q
paper whose tone We cannot but admire, states
that the collector recently appointed at that place
has alcays been E-tig! Such being the case
it IS the honest duty of the democratic press to
unhesitatingly condemn the source from which
such appointment emanated. Remedial meas
uTes should be aLscoys applied TO appointments
which suit not the community in which the per-
sons appointed reside. The Collector Of Tolls at
Philadelphia is still high in Office under the pre-
sent board. At the election last fall he deserted
the standard of party and fraternized with
the enemy for the purpose 0 + defeating part Of
the State ticket Truly was he guilty of treason
in the democratic camp, and yet he is rewarded
for it and is kcpti in Office by a democratic Canal
Board. There was a man (in the truest sense Of
the world who made application for the collec-
torship of Philadelphia and had strong recon-
mendations from men of infuenceand long stan
ding in the party. We refer to Col. RICHARD
r. YoUNG. He had the fault, no the honor, to
be born poor. By persevering industry and
close application he made himself respected
He has talent, excellent qualifications, and sta
bility Of character. He has Iabored zealously
and indefatigably for the success Of democratic
principles. He has been one Of the few working
men for victory over our foes and has been true
to the rank and file Of his party, never swerging
from the beaten track. Such q man should have
received some reward. His application so far
has been refused. Justice has been denied him
and the man who sucks the life blood from our
party is yet in Office and likely tc be continued.
It's monstrous, and such conduct on the part Of
those in power receives the condemnation Of ey
cry man who sustains the party by his ballot.
not asking or desirous OF obtaining the "spoils
of Office" Instances Of the same kind are not
uncorAmon, and it is mainly from such causes
that the almost universal cry of ''retrencLment
and reform, comes like a warning voice from
al quarters Of our State, and men who have
heretofore considered the ills We have" better
to be borne than look to some plan for "a remedy,
now suggests the proprety Of re-modeing the

ing the treaty of Vienna he will interfere with
an armed force. The feeling in Paris is that
peace will be maintained. Some Of the OppOsi-
ton candidates have declared. if elected, they
would refuse to take the oath prescribed by the
PROSTITUTION. Since receipt of Russian Empe-

denly directed his Minister in Austria to protest

French goods. The French funds are steady.

GREAT BNITAIS.-In the House Of Lords, on
the 9th, Lord Derby gave short programme Of
the principles which were to govern the new
ministry, repudiated extension Of the fran
cLise, and expressed preference for the princi-
pies of the American tariff rather than free
trade system. His foreign policy will be con-
Quoted with the determination to maintain peace.
He has declared an intention Of imposing five
shillings duty corn, but would first take the
sense of the country on the question; while
ayowing himself an enemy to bribery at cleo
tions, which he would repress by all means in
his power, he could not assent to the plan of re-
form introduced by his predecessors; in the ex-
tension of education he would mainly rely on
the parochial clergy. In relation to fugitives
from other nations, Lord Derby said it was the
duty Of government, without descending to
system Of espionage, to keep watch over the
movements of such as abused English hospitali-
ty. Earl Gray deemed the Premier's explana-
ton unsatisfactory, with regard to oimport duties
and implored him not to keep the country in sus-
pense to what lis real intentions were Earl

ton of supporting Sir Robert Peel's commercial

policy of free trade, and arrest attempts to i'm
pose production duty on corn. Mr.. Hume

form. The House adjourned until March 18th
