"Honest John" (.ays the Petersburg In.
tslige'ee'l is slov in responding 70 the call
OF DIR. Ruffner. Unless be comes out very
soon, the public will take the bill for con-
fessed and decree accordingly" IL will be
remembered that DIR. X. took issue with Mr..
L. in some important matters Of fact and
threw out some very damaging limitations
~ to the circumstances and causes attending
his conversion to the doctrines Of the South.
H. also called upon Mr.. Letcher to state
VIA, we're the alleged interpretations in the
speech IS published. Mr.. Letcher has not
yet answered although abundant time has
elapsed. Men are not apt to sueor Injurious
imputations to rest against them when they
have the means Of repellipg them. Least Of
all are politicians seek ing promotion apt to
do this That DR.. Rufner,s letter was not
without force and effect-And that it de-
mands reply, neither Mr.. Letcher, nor his
friend can doubt. The longer, too, the re-
ply is delayed, tho less merit will il have
when it comes. That Ms. l. may see how
Dr. RuHner's publication is working, We an
mex III article from the Bedford Dcnocrat :
We give below the letter Of DR.. Henry
Rufuer in vindication Of himself from the
ipsinuatiops Of Hon. John Letcher aud 9th
ers, who solicited the publication Of the
famous Ruffuer pamphlet In justice to the
DIR. We oheerfally publish it, and are free to
confess that it leaves "Houest John in
rather an awkward predieament wefefrain
from commenting At length upon il, hoping
Mr.. Leteher will promptly reply, aud clear
himself from the rather bold assertions Of
DIR. Rufner. 1t will be rcoOlected by our
readers that We published q recent letter Of
Mr.. LetchT, and expressed ourselves salts
fed with IL. Recent developments, how.
ever, have changed our views, and We eau.
not longer DO considered as endorsing him.
II, however, he should prove himself worthy
the support Of the democratic party, for
Guber Material honors, and eatiTeiy clear Ia,
'ktrts Of tAe Craze charge preferred agai4st
Aim, We shall give hin our cordial support
We think, however, that Honest John, il
not the man for the times. While he may
DO sound and reliable upon TIE peculiar in
stitution' Of slavery, the nomination by the
Democratic party Of such man would mill
tate against their success very materially in
the Presidential contest Of 1850.

sTEAa ON CANALS

Gov. Eiso, Of New York, and two Of the
Canal Csuuissioners, attended by several
prossinsut citizens, have been making an
sxpsriment on the enlarged portion Of the
Erie Canal, to test the prscticabiliiy Of the
ess Of steam - . nropelling power without
iojury TO the walls or banks Of the Canal -
The experiment vas made in the new canal
steamer S,cmberg, starting from Rochester
Gov. K,So made brief aud appropriate ad-
drsss, in which he expressed his confidence
10 the success Of the euterprize. With the
Canal snisrgedand steam used be thought
TIE great State Of New York might defy com
petition from whatever source it may come
II appears to have been the frst visit ofGov.
Kiog to the thriving city Of Rochester.
Nr. Rugglss one the Com missioner', al
90 addressed the people. lie said, amongst
other things that they wOuldhoOu see the mag
ni6csnt results Of the accomplishment OF the
original idea Of those who projected the
grand canal, in witnessing millions OF proPer'
~ sao.t upon it, and then they would sPPre-
ciate the genius Of De WITT CLINTON aud his
eo.partuers in the construction ofthe Canal
He pointed To single remaining arch Of the
old sqseduct, which he thought ought to be
preserved asa monument TO the wise forecast
and patriotism Of these statesmen.
The Stembe-g was accompanied by the
steamers S. 8. whallou and Gov. King -
The people crowded throughout the line, and
cheered the sxeursiouists very heartily. II
10 thought that success in ihis matter will
beisg the freight Of wheat down to two cents

This is, subject Of deep interest to the
people Of the Potomac region aud The Dis
triet cities, aud We refer to it with the hope
that the success OF steamers on the Eric "a
nal may lead to its permanent use on the
Chesapeake Il o Canal once viewed As the
national work. This work isyet entitled to
beni6cent eonsideration Of the government,
which, after inviting Virginia and Nd and
many oftheir citizens, into L partnership,
should not abandon them at an era when
human enterprise is everywhere achieving
