We have letter from Mr.. Howard, the
resident engineer of the Miami and Erie
Canal, stating that the water will be drawn
from the Northern Division of the Miami
and Erie Caral on Friday, March 81 for the
purpose of making repairs, and will remain
out for three or four weeks.
Meantime no decisive action has been
taken in regard to the canal contracts. The
differences of opinion seem to have para
lyzed the legislature, and no headway is
made in disposing of that question about
which the whole State has come to feel
deep interest 1t seems as if something
like Mr.. Cadwel1s bill must ultimately be
adopted. This bill virtually continues the
contracts in the hands of the present con-
tractors at the lowest responsible bids. It,
in effect, declares the contracts void, and
makes new contracts with the same parties
at the lowest rates named in the official bids
and then allows the contractors to apply TO
the courts if they feel themselves aggrieved.
We like the bill because it frees the leg
islature from the charge of disturbing these
contracts for the mere purpose Of getting
possession of the spoils; because it does no
injustice TO the contractors; because it Sc
cures the interests of tho State; and be-
cause it settles the question without shirking
it off on the courts and making it dependent
on their action. The Legislature, by this bill,
do their part of the business and leave the
rest to the contractors and the legal tribun-
ais. We have not seen the bill; but the
synopsis of it, which We lately published
seems to cover all the ground that is need
ful in the settlement Of tho question. 1t is
time that decisive action was taken, as the
delay can hardly fail to be prejudicial to the
spring repairs.
P. s. Since the above was in type, le
gal friend has started some points Of Difficult
ty in relation TO Mr.. Cadwell's bill, which
if well put arc material. He regards it as
a legislative recognition of the contracts
and maintains that tho courts would so re
gard it. In that case our preference for il
must be yielded. Toledo BLADE.

DIR. BURDELLs MARRIAGE.-Tho New
York Tribune of the 2sth says: The pub
lie will be glad to hear that they are to
have the question of DR.. Burdclrs alleged
marriage to Mrs. Cunningham tried by a
competent tribunal very shortly. The con-
troversy with regard to the administration
of DR.. Burdelrs estate, which depends on
this question, will, in all human probability,
come before the Surrogate on Tuesday
next. The counsel of both parties are ca
ger to proceed, and the Surrogate will put
aside the Parish will ease for the purpose of
disposing of this. We learn that Mr.. Gin
ton, Mrs. Cunningham's counsel, has to-day
taken out six subpenas in the case, so that
we may expect long and be sure of hard
fight. We shall soon be able to sec what
DR.. Spicers affidavit amounts to.

We repeat that the mission Of the re-
publican party is to reassert and defend the
rights Of man. These rights were well un-
detstood and defended by seven years war
and the lavish expenditure Of property and
life, in Revolutionary times. In the Dec.
laration that tall men are born free and
equal" the South and North united. Had
this Declaration read 'all Ohite men are
born free and equal" the makers of it would
have received and deserved tho dcrision
and contempt of mankind. Instead Of be-
ing regarded as an oppressed people strug-
Cling for the rights of man, they would have
been justly looked on as tribe of pirates
and petty dcspots, demanding liberty, in
deed, for themselves, but denying it TO 9TH
or men. For such n struggle the sympathy
of the world could never have been awak-
ened.
But since democracy has allied itself with
slavery, the Declaration is understood to
mean, not that "all men arc born free and
equal" but that all ,ohite men are so. This
we say is the meaning put on the great
Declaration of human rights even at the
North. AT the South this construction is
the very gist of democracy. For this gross
departure from the faith of tho fathers, de-
mocracy is responsible. The republican
party has this great aim,-to re-establish
the doctrines concerning human rights
which were held by Washington, and JEFF
ferson, and Franklin, and Madison. iii is
faithful to this aim, it will speedily number
in its ranks the great mass of the American
people. If it proves unfathful to this aim,
we hope to see it speedily dissolved and
scattered to the four winds of heaven. Let
us briefly consider some of the leading views
of republicans. In this article one point on
ly can be considered. We reserve others
for future study. The republican party holds
that all men are equal before the law and
as citizens Of government. Crime only can
work the forfeiture of this equality. The
color or place Of birth or any other accident
of man does not disgrace him. The re-
quirement that man of foreign birth should
reside in this country certain number of
years before exercising the rights of citizen
ship, is no departure from this principle;- -
any more than the requirement that na-
tive shall be twenty-oue years of age before
exercising the same right. A man is aman
whether his skin is black or white; whether
he is Irish or German or American; wheth-
er he works with his hands or head or nei-
thcr

A VIRGINIA HOME FOR Ex-PREsIDEET

Considering President Pierce's exceeding
natural disinclination to return to New
Hampshire, this is, so far as it goes, the
most generous thing which has been pro
posed in Virginia for long time. But the
proposition is deficient in one vital particu-
