the very best motives, viz: the alienation Of hGman
suffering. From circumstances which have lately come
10 our knOwleig~, sc fear there is a eertaiS class Of
persons who are not disposed to try this remedy in a
common reuse manner. " allude TO the fact Of selec-
ting a particular ease in Il tOan where perhaps there
are six or eight cases, and trying il on OneAcase. Now
perhaps the case selected, might he the only one Of the
whole number that it would not cure This is neither
doing themselves nor the medicine justice If a dozen
persons were stricken down with CHOLERA in one town
or neighborhOOd, would they all send for n physician,
or would only one employ him, and wait and see II he
cured the first patientl That plan OF procedure Wouh

which certificates of Ohio Safe Stock,
bearing six per cent. interest, and re-
aeemablc nj the pleasure OF the State
after Dec. 81, 1856. would be given; in
pursuance If which notice, some lhir-
teen bids were received, ranging in a
noun { ON SIS 900 to $3.50. COO. and at
from g 10 3 per cent. premium. A small
amount as. 9 and 10 per cent premium.
One bid for t e whole at 9 per cent.
and one bill for the whole amount at 81
per cent. premium.
Upon examination of the bids, it was
found that from 81 down to 2 per cent.
there were bids for $3.50. 600, from 4 to
81 per cent. premium, bids for $3.50, 900
500, 500 at 8 per cent, S5. 600 at 8
per cent. and $4,000 at 10 per cent,
amounting 10 the aggregate of SI,88l,-
500, leaving a balance of S5l9, 500 to be
provided for, for which there appeared
TO be no demand. either speculative or
otherwise. In this view of the case, the
Commissioner were compelled to do one
OF two things, viz: 10 accept the bid oil
81 per cent. premium, on the whole a.
mount, or accept only such bids as ran
ged over that amount, and open a ''stock
jobbing Office" and take their chances
in the market for tie sale of some ST.
000, 600 for which there was no bid over
81 per cent. As the Commissioners
were unwilling That the Safe should be
presented in the humiliating attitude of
a stock jobber, hawking his W bonds
in the market, they accepted the bid OF
H. A. Johnson 81 Co. for the whole a
mount of the loan at 81 per cent. premi

issued bonds TO the amonnt of Sc. 400,

WARREN, o., Jan. 1st., 1857.
Mr.. EDITOR WIN you allow me to
express through your columns to the
Baptist church of this place, our graft
tude for a visit on the eve of Dec. 24;h,
1856. 1t vas called a surprise visit !;
and such. it was.
About 7 o'clock, P. NJ, We were call
ed to the door, and a number Of friends
entered; and when seated, we were called
again, and again, until our commodious
house was filed to its capacity. Pres
emily we heard a rafting in the kitchen,
and on looking after the cause, We dis
covered living animals, cooking oysters,
with baskets Of crackers. cake, ETC., exc.
When these were served up. the pas
tor and his family were called into the
parlor, and presented with valuable gifts,
accompanied with expressions Of regard
and sympathy. And after appropriate
religious exercises, we were all dressed
up, and enjoyed with our visitors a good
social time /; and by 1e o'clock all we've
dispersed.
This &what the Yankees call a sur
prise visit, and a very agreeable surprise
i. is, and to which there can be no o.
lection, especially when so we'll done
up as this was. for this people know
Low.
The valuables received are held in
high estimation, especially as evidence
of respect and sympathy, and lay US un-
der new obligations to God and the
church. This is the third church in
Ohio with whom We have had endearing
relations in the twelve years past. And
we cannot turn ourselves without seeing
something 10 remind US of My. or
W., or Warren. The beds, the cup.
board, the wardrobe, the silting-room,
the study. the parlOr--all tell of SYM
pathy and love, and remind US of dear
friends.
Are there not many pastors in the
State whose hearts might be encouraged
by a surprise visit. giving evidence that
they are loved for their works sake p
Go thou and do likewise - it will do
you good, for it is more blessed to give
than 10 receive. Respectfully,

ing in Mecca closed with an addition Of

The Judges Salaries.

The DesR0cret Aas an article under
this head, over sJeolumnin length. but
instead of sticking to its text, it scatters
It's fire, aad insists that its nominal editor
writes his e1a editorials, abuses Judge
Hoffman without mercy, pitches into the
Republican party generally, and the
Chroaids in particular. As to all the
editorial in the Demscrat being written
BY Mr.. Ritezel, thai is all 6Osh. We
know the esr-mark of Mr.. Watsons and
DR.. Woods articles, just as well as if
their signatures were attached.
The article in cur paper which excited
the wrath of the Democrat. it says come,

mans 0b lily. 1t is a pity Mr.. Ritezel is
wrong again, but Mr.. Hoffman did not
wIite the article. and are are alone re
ponsible for its guilt.
As for rnaking a personal onslaught on
Mr.. Hoffman. the editors of the ChrOni
Gle should know better Than TO accuse US
of such inteation.- Democrat.
Now read the following:
We have never had any personal diff
fculty with that gentleman. although he
has tried to insult US. and had the little

We have some curiosity 10 know what
would be a personal onslaught on Mr..
Hoffman, if this is not.
But here follows the explanation Of all
this sudden unsealing of the wills of
wrath, poured out upon the head of
Judge Hoffman. The Democrat says
He cannot tolerate those who dare to
expose his Inconsistencies. In proof of
this we would Just mention that he DIS
cont nued the Democrat because we op-
posed his additional compensation pro-
ject.
That accounts for the milk in The co
eoanut. The Judge was so mean. he
would not Peg Mr.. Ritezel for abusing

Dear Chronicle - There is one thing
at least, connected with the Slough affair
that does not appear upon the surface
Il will be recollected that the resolution

eral assembly are not entitled TO per diem

the adjournment and also for Mileage, of
fered by Mr.. Slough, and as was declar-
ed by Democrats in the debate yesterday
was a mere trick intended TO get the Re-
publicans on the Record as voting for so
monstrous a grab from the Treasury OF
the State.
By the yeas and nays which were then
being called, Mr.. Slough perceived that
his deep laid plot was recoiling most
fearfully upon his " party, almost
every one Of whom were voting for his
resolution, while the Republicans were
voting against it. This summary upset
of the gentleman's dish kindled his wrath
and made it easy for him to strike the
blow, which resulted in his expulsion
yesterday from his seat. The speech OF
DIR. Cory was most terribly severe. not
only upoa his colleague and fellow DEM
.ocrat, bat also upon the the Democratic
parry. He declared their action last
winter in refusing to go into the commit
tee of investigation as they were invited
to do, by the Republicans. had convict
ed them of their Cowardice before the
people of the State; and had written the
verdict against themselves in the as
founding developments now being made
by the publication of the committees re-
ports. The outraged and insulied Dem
ocracy are to have IN indignation meet

PennsyIvaGfa &0hio Canal.

We published last week, the Annual
Report of the p 30. Canal Company.
The Presidents Report is a clear, con
else statement of the present condition
of the Canal, IFS finances, and is future
prospects. Unjust be CRAFTY ing TO the
stockholders and friends Of the Canal,
to know that the receipts we're larger du-
ring the last year, than ever before, and
the amount Of money remaining on hand
on the LIST of January. 1857, was $685.
o1e,7 e, about $500. 90 more than on
The LIST of January. 1856. According 10
the Report of Mr.. Robinson. Superinten-
dent, the estimated expense fer repairs
for the year 1899, is S45. 36s.I q. This
Is an excess over last year, and we be-
lieve many preceding years. of some
25,OOO,o 90. The cause of this increase
is fully stated in the Presidents Report,
and is, according to the Engineers r :
port, unavoidable. Many of the locks
are badly out of repair. and have been
becoming worse year by year. until now,
some of them must be rebuilt, or navi
CATION totally suspended. The aqueduct
az Newton Falls alone, will cost &c.,
eOO, 90. and the re building Of the locss,
$50, 600 100, and other repairs swell up
the total TO s45, 00U. 10.
Since the opening of the C. & NJ Rail
Road TO Yozngstoxa. the general bus;-
ness of the Canal has been much redu-
ICED; and there is no question hat that in
the ensuing yesr. this effect will be Still
greater, and cause a still larger deduc
lion in its receipts.
The coal carried to Cleveland, has
been of late years. the principle source
from whence The Canal has derived its
income. In tits carrying trade. the C.
