Chesapeake and Ohio Canal.

memorial has been presented to the Maryland
Legislature, praying that body to sell the States
interest In the Chesapeake and Ohio canal. The
memorial makes very clear exhibit of the fnan-
cial condition of the canal company. 1t shows,
among other facts, that since 1874, when the State
waived It's prior lien upon the work, there have
been borrowed to aid in the completion and carry
ing on of the canal s., ,2ss,0s4 Oe, constituting
preferred debt against it, upon which debt there
has accumulated $543, 81 in interest making total
Of 81 831 ,271, which stands lien, having pre-
ference to the State and all other claimants. If the
Legislature should adjourn thout authorizing the
sale Of the canal the increase upon the principal
of the preferred debt up to the time Of the assem-
bling of new Legislature, win be 81, ,oeo, ,793,
making total of IS, 200, 600 Of debt to be extn.
guished before any return can be received for the
States investment. ...s. ,....."
The canal went into operation October l, $780,
since which the gross receipts have been unequal
to meet the expenses and the interest upon the
preferred debt. If the management of the work
is not placed in other hands, II is manifest that
it must fall into ruins. The interest of the State
Of Maryland is worth, intrinsicdLly nothing but
parties interested in the preferred debt are will
ing to pay something for its extingushment in
order that, by careful and thrifty management,
they may attempt to recover the money which
they have themselves advanced.
This is a subject which deeply concerns the
citizens of Washington and the District. If this
great and costly work be confded to the direction
of liberal and enlightened capitalists there is hard
ly doubt that it will be made to yield suitable
return for the money invested and that it win
contribute In very eminent degree to the inci ease
of business and the general prosperity of this city
and its vicinity.

A WORD IN SEAsoN.-The Washington cor
respondent Of the National Democrat says
"That there are in our party men from the North
and South who mediate treason to the party
There are those prepared to take exceptions to
either platform or nominee, or both. There never
was party thus 'marred with traitors' II was
never expected that an organization for political
purposes could be built up without having merce-
naries and camp followers, who fee at the first
sign Of danger, and first rush in to reap the spois
Of victory. But the American party has been pc
culiarly cursed with this class of people. There
are those who would rather rule in bell than
serve in Heaven 1t is well, then, TO keep eye
TO those who are slippery. II we have vipers in
our party, who have been warmed into life by it.
who would turn and sting it, let their fsngs be
drawn before they go out on their errand of mis-
chief" ~ t tt.. r...s
The same writer says that public attention
is being strongly turned towards Joseph II.
Bradley as suitable candidate for the mayor
atty Of this city.

THE GREAT RUSSIAN REMEDY.
PRO BONO PUBIIC0.

Daily American organ., 1856-02-25

AT the opening OF the afternoon session, MIR.
Corwine, of Ohio asked that his resolu ion, which
was offered in lieu of the sixth section of the new
platform be taken up.
The resolution is as follows:
The unqualified recognition and maintenance OF
the reserved rights of the several States and tie
cultivation of harmony and fraternal good will be-
tween the citizens of the several States, and the
preservation alike Of public and private trust and
faith, and to this end, we declare as a cardinal
principle of our platform, that the repeal of the
Mis- our compromise was an infraction of the
pghted faith of the nation, and that it should be
restored; and il efforts to that end should fail,
Congress should refuse to admit into the Union
any State tolerating slavery, which shall be formed
out Of any portion of the territory from which that
institution was excluded by the compromise.
Considerable confusion was created on this re-
quest and the chairman finally decided the mot on
out of order.
Mr.. Corwine appealed from the decision of the
chair, and the chair sustained by vote of lo7
to SO.
Mr.. Danenhower insisted upon the previous ques-
tion being called.
A division of that question was then called, and
on that motion the previous question was called.
On the motion to strike out the June platform,
the vote stocd-syes 1873, noes 81 as follows:
New Hampshire, ayes 2. Massachusetts,, ayes
l8. Connecticut ayes s. Rhode Island, aves A.
New York, ayes 83; noes /. Delaware, ayes 2.

DELAYS IN THE SUPREME COURT.

To Ne Editor II The ~ y Tr1u"S
SIR: Your journal has ever exercised mportan
and wholesome influence upon the judicial relations
our State and in view of this especial characteristic
beg your attention to the present condition of the
Supreme Court in this cty with trial calender bur.
dened by serral hOusand causes with other business
amply sufficient to engage the steady care Of the entire
corps of Justices allotted to this District the curious
spectacle of bench without Judge is to-day pre-
sented e. the il STAGE Of the Circuit Court. An entire
week has been suffered TO pass with additions to the
records of this Court two three adournmeats
Let il be understood that the Circuit Is held not more
than forty weeks in the year. that has in charge some
loss will be appreciated. During such period twenty
five causes at least might end their expensive career
of litigation Where will we look for solution OF this
Distress Do we need more Judges i am forced TO
conclude we do Additions to the bench should DE
iealously allowed but with litigation camorous for
determination morality demands that means adequate
10 the end should be granted. In no district In our
State is half the law business transacted in the Su-
preme Court a. in this one yet the judicial force seas
hs great disproporon that while each other Districts
has four Judges this has but FIVE. At present we are
reduced To three-one serving out his course on the
Bench of Appeals and one having virtually or really
withdrawn from judicial service. Notice OF q bill 70
increase the number Of Judges has been given to the
Legislature; but will IT succeed without the aid OF pop
ular demand from this city, where the exgency Of the
matter is best understood Protracted litigation, and
tie power or possibility Of such protraton demoralze
a community quite as rapidly as the worst physical
vices. Give US the instruments whereby we may, at
least and must if these instruments perform their part
well come 10 an end in suits and litigation will d.
miDish in amount and expense, and many wrong be
promptly ngLted. CuRIA.
