Sale Of tho Canals.

This subject is again exciting public
attention. Shall che Public Works Of tho
State be sold to the highest bidder, for a
reasonable compensation, or shall they TO-
main. source Of peouuiary loss and a
leadon weight upon the treasury Of the
State and the fruitful cause Of litigation
and contention? We think the only ra.
tioual question to bo asked Is; Do the ca
nails pa19 II not. If they have ceased to
DO a source Of profit to the State, the soon
Sr she is rid Of thom, the better; and IL
they can be solo to individuals or compa-
nies, under the restrictions and guarantees
recommended by the Governor, in his
message. we say amen. What the State
cannot do successfully, individual enter.
prise may. The Canals only profit those
counties through which they pass, while
they are a dead loss to the whole State;
and We see no just reason why three.
fOur,hs Of the counties Of the State should
be taxed for the benefit Of the 9th or fourth.
