/ II fRRpRAL OF THE SUGAR DurlEs,-Tiie New Or
tleans Bulletin earnestly demonstrates against the
repeal of The sugar duters, for the following rea-
sons: til
1st, II is well understood that the price of sugar
I is now solo@ thatlitte or no profit remains with
the sugar planters. Hundreds are now well salts
ned with the posblily Of being abba 10 make both
ends meet al tie end of the year; and many are
preparing to retire from The business -
Cd. Any legislation that would tend towards
cheupening the price of sugar would drive plant
eis out Of the business. Being unable to sustain
themselves they would be compelled 10 resort to
some othe occupation.
Sd. The destruction of the sugar crop OF Louisi-
ma W ould vacuum in the market that neith-
er the surplus OF Cuba, uur of auy surrounding
production, would be able TO supply. Consequently
prices would advance materially, and parties now
complaining OF The lowest sort OF rates-barely
affortng a n economical living 10 the planter,
would be compelled To pay an increase OF at least
fifty per cent. over and above what they expend
now for the same article!
4th, Would. the project we have been arguing
against, pay! We think we have clearly shown
it would not. Cheaper und better sugar than is
now sold, cannot be raised in the United States.
Why should the advocates of. repeat strive to con-
surnate measure which, while 1t ruins their nigh.
bors, will evidently add 10 their pecnniary bur-
.dens2 We can see neither reason, common sense,
justice, nor ordinary prudence IN such course
But we will say in coEcluslon,l II the sugar
duties are to be taken off, lie, other duties be re-
pealed at the same tlme. Let the iron d1tes be
abolished, the tariffs on cottons and woolens be
done away with: in fine, the protection on every
article of ege neral use abrogated. Ii Que branch
of industry is to be destroyed, give none others oil,
undue advantage. Let all fare alike. sts

Sale of the Main Line.

In our last issue, we told our readers that the
bill for the sale of that part of the public works
called the main Line, had passed both houses of
the Legislature, and awaited the Executive sane
ton or veto. Since then, the Governor has sign
ed the bill, and to sell is now the law.
1t is true, the Governor, in his message to the
Legislature, at the beginning of the present ses-
sion of that body, expressed himself somewhat
unfavorably to the sale, and Whig vigilance soon
discovered food for Wing whining, and one would
think from their vote of fault-fnding, that Mr..
Bgler ought to be statue in the Chair Of State,
instead Of the guardian of the public and the
discriminating Executive of the laws already
made as well as of those which he assists in
making. Now, that he has signed the BILL the
same note of complaint is heard on a slightly
different key, for that he has adopted differ
ent policy from that indicated in his message.
Of course the people understand these puny
attempts to find ought wherewith to accuse the
popular candidate Of our party, and Mr.. Pollock
and his friends will see, in the course Of time,
how much and how little they will avail. Cow
ernor Bigler has signed the bill for various good
and sufficient reasons, some of which he did not
and could not know when his message was sub
1ne upOIl WHICH Hc OtpuSSu ILS
SALE in that document, was his belief in the
ability of this sovereign Commonwealth to man
age her own property and render it productive.
To this end he recommended change in the
rules and modes of management, not heretofore
attempted, and which, had the coordinate
branch of the law-rnaking power concurred,
might have saved to the State her valuable i'm
provements and rendered them a source of reve-
nue. and public pride. But the Legislature con-
cluded upon different policy; majority of
the Canal Board concurred /; the comparative rev.
enue of this with rival routes, is found to be
much less than was anticipated. The vote of the
people, taken some years ago, has indexed the
popular wish that the sale should take place,
and the provisions Of the bill securing important
rights to the citizens, and reserving controlling
powers, all conduced to prevail with his Excel
lency to forego his favorite schemeiof reform and
allow the Main Line to come into market
Whether this is the best thing that could be
done in the premises, is yet an open problem
Many excellent democrats are found on both
sides of the question, and there are those of op-
posite politics who diverge greatly in their views
of the matter. Time will show which are the
seers.
Rumors are current, that the competition of
bidders will be much stronger than has been
and that the maximum range Of
may reach as much as fifteen millions.
Such news is well calculated to rebuke those en-
