SELF-SUsTAINING.- State of New York
has been more successful. than governments
usually arc in making administrative depart
ments sclfsustainng. 1t appears, Ivy the
Governors mess age that the bank depart
mcnt is wholly paid for out of the vaults of
the banks. The railroad commissioners are
paid for by the railroad companies. The
convicts at Auburn earn the expense of their
own incarceration. The emigration commits
sionerS derive their fund from the purses of
the cmig,ants. The salt works pay for their
own superintendent and extension. The
pay of the militia comes out of the fines of
their own dclinqucnts. The canals not only
pay for their own construction and repairs
but contribute largely to the revenues Of the
SAFE.

cars, the train was almost upon him be fore
he was aware Of its approach. Instead of at.
tempting to get off the track. rs a human be-
ing would have been moved by impulse to do
