ENLARGEMENT OF THE NEW YORK CANALS.

The question respecting the enlargement Of the
New York Canals has for long time past agitated
the people Of that State. The present Legislature
appointed committee of conference on the resclu-
tons proposing an amendment of the Constitution
to admit Of the desired Improvement and it appears
that final agreement has been the result of their
consultation upon the subject The points upon
which the conferees of the two Houses have united
are as follows:
l. The canals shall be finished by borrowing 50 900 000
without tax, but the strength of the revenues 3
Sl50o0o0 shall be borrowed pay the canal revenue
certificates; making in alSl0 500 000 g. The canals
shall be completed in four yours. A. 1t shall be made
Imperative on the Legislature to provide the 5.
The contracts of 1851 be repudated g. The work
is TO be let out 10 the lowest bidder.
This basis Of agreement, involving the enlarge
ment of the canals from their own resources and
without taxation, it is confidently believed will
command the almost unanimous vote of both Houses
of the Legislature, well the hearty concurrence
Of the people of the State.

EDITORS CORRESPONDENCE

SAVANNAH, JUNE 8, 1858.
The friends of the Colonization Society and of Lii
IBERIA are under special and great obligations to the
Hon. JAMES M WAYNE, who has cheerfully come
forward and consented to preside in the several pub
lie meetings here which finally resulted in the es-
Establishment of the Savannah Colonization Society,
an association which will, it is thought, be power
fully felt throughout this State The visits of Mr..
GuRLEY to several of the most important interior
cities OF the State, and to the general Baptist Con-
venton, had invited public thought to the subject,
and prepared the way in some measure for the re-
cent movement here. Yet we cannot over-est,mate
the resolution and energy which animated Judge
WAYNE in conducting the matter to It's completion,
in the formation of society which, having It's exc
cutve officers from among the citizens OF Savannah,
includes among its Vice Presidents distinguished names
from other parts Of the State
An attempt has been made in the City Council here to
cause memorial to be sent the Legislature induce
that body prohibit the departure Of any expedition with
emigrans from this port to Liberia Much prob
able is it that this great Commonwealth will, at
day, appropriate money to aid in the voluntary
of its free black population The spirit of emgra
ton Liberia is rapidly increasing among free persons
of color in this region and they among the best Of
their class in the Union.
The Adeline is expected to sail tomorrow with more
delayed three four days in consequence of repairs in
the dydock rendered necessary bya slight injury caused
by her striking the ground she up the river

for ha stening her departure

health in the year 1851 that the defendant then repre-
sened to her that he skilled in the treatment Of her

her health was seriously injured that in the time
she informed the doctor Of the injurious effects and he
represented the medicine to be unerring as curative
when taken in sufficient quantities. that she thereupon
placed his and treatment and continued
to take his medicine which only aggravated her malady
and entailed permanent injury.
The answer acknowledged that the defendant had at

his nostrum and alleged that the injury complained Of
resulted from disregard Of defendants directions.
After hearing the evidence both Sides the Judge
charged the Jury in substance as follows must set
aside the expectations of that degree of skill that should
have been expected Of physician. Persons who take
medicines from advertisements in newspapers must in

THE MASSACHUSETTS CoSvESTIoS.-Mr. KNowLroy
who is member of the Constitutional Convention does
not appear to be wonderfully impressed with the wisdom
of that body says the Boston Courier if may judge
from his letters to his journal The following from his
last epistle:

not the office Of Lieut. Governor but what gave it its
sequences viz the TITLE Of " His Honor" marvellous
performance in the Convention, it not Let every
crier in the courts excaim with increased

venon might well pause in labors and betae itself
those medations that are becoming Sunday after lay
ing "sacrilegious hands" upon the Constitution, and
ruthessy tearing off the title Of the Lieut.. Governor
Since this important modification has been made in the
Constitution the Convention need have no fear for the
safety Of any others it may propose. 1t will be His
Honor longer, but plain Democratic Lieutenant Gov
ernor. match act might well enough pass that she
riff hat shall no longer be mounted by cockade But
perhaps cutting out the title His Honor" is great
deprivation as the Constitution suffer at opera
ton Of its political doctors. Let the Commonwealth give
thanks that 1t is worse.

The most independent presses of the dominan
marty are often found to be the truest exponent
Of the Presidents policy. They are certainly hi
soundest counseors, and the truest friends Of the
real honor and just repute of the Administration
Regarding them in this light and wishing to place
the most favorable construction on the movements
and purposes Of the PRESIDENT we are always glad
~ find in the columns Of the small class Of presses
we have alluded to, any thing which tends to
strengthen confidence in the wisdom aud moderation
Of the Executive such, for instance, the annexed
extract from the Charleston Mercury. Referring
to an article in New York paper on the Mexican
boundary dispute, that print says:
THE well-tempered comments on the merits of the
dispute and the of adjusting it, have to
believe do much faithfully represent the sentiments
and policy Of the Administration than the many rash and
aggressive suggestions that have flowed from no small
portion of the press The President has not only had bad
advice thrust upon him by these fighting editors but what
is worse they have done their best to produce the i'm
preston that he was himself the head of that hungry
party whose manifest destiny it is deyour Mexico
bodily without the formality of saying grace.
To these wild notions, sorry to say, think
the Washington Union has contributed support Not
that that press has advised war; endorsed the vo-
lent proceedings of Governor LANE but it has painted the
Mexican side very dark and has asserted for the claim of
the United States degree Of certainty which do not
think possesses. Even in its article of last Sunday
which is in the main moderate and favorable peaceable
adjustment there still the radical defects Of asserting
that the right of the United States the territory is clear
beyond dispute and assuming that the whole blame of
military occupation rests with Mexico.
1'Of the first say nothing except that SO long as
there opposing parties in any case, it is but fair
presume that there is something be said each side
which is deserving of attention. But in regard the
second insist upon that impressions of the
quarrel be made without keeping in the very
front the important fact that the Governor of New Mex
leo attempted to take forcbe possession Of the territory
before Gov. TRIAs made any movement The blame Of
seeking 10 settle the question by violence does not
with Mexico, but with officer Of the United States.
1t that he acted without authority and that his
attempt entire failure But neither the one nor
the other these things could be taken for granted by the
Mexican Governor and he have been fully impress
ed with the conviction that he was entering on very
rious business -Hercay.

BALANCE OF TRADE.

The fiscal year (says the New York Journal of
Commeree) closes with the current month, and
there is already much socitude exhibited in regard
to the balance which will then be struck in the
foreign commerce of the country. Nearly two
thirds Of all the foreign imports of the United
States are received at this port and the increase in
the receipts for the past eleven months have been
so great as to attract the serious attention Of all
interested in commercial affairs. On the other
hand, but t@offths of all the foreign exports (ess
than ,one-third, exclusive Of specie) are shipped
from hence, so that the balance of trade appears
from the result here to preponderate greatly against
the country The following will show precisely the
state OF this trade exhibited by official records at
this port:
