New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1859-01-07

We learn that some three weeks hence the MEN,
bers of the Canal Board will lay before the Gov
eminent and the people of the State defense Of
their conduct in violating the Constitution and con.
tracing an unauthorized debt. We submit that
this is rather long to wait and that if the parties
have any real apology to make, much less time
should be occupied in putting it into the necessary
form. The Governor, though speaking with ex-
ceeding forbearance of language, has brought
against them one Of the gravest ACQUISITIONS that
can be urged against any public official. lie has
accused them of deliberately, knowingly, wilfully
infringing one of the most important provisions of
the fundamental law; and he has not only brought
the charge, but he seems TO have demonstrated the
facts on which it is founded If the case is cor
rectly stated by him, it would see to be the duty
Of the Legislature to impeach and try the guilty
parties and We should seriously advise them to
lose 10 time in responding to the charge at the bar
of public opinion, aud in saying what can be said
in ex.enuation Of their ofiense.
The Governors Message does not enter into the
minute details of the business but, We under
stsnd il, the Canal Commissioners have contracted
debt in behalf of the Stste, for work in the en-
lareement of the Canals 10 the Of 81, COO 900,
over and above all appropriations and all resources
legally set spars for such work. The occasion for
this debt, We are told, arose from errors in the
estimates made by the Canal Board or its agents,
on which estimates the appropriations had been
based. The work coat great deal more than had
been expected; there WA no money to pay for it;
and the Commissioners had to choose between
contracting an Illegal debt or stopping the work.
They had ample power to do the latter clause in
each contract giving them the right to arrest the
work whenever they should judge best. But they
thought that to stop the work would be disastrous.
aud, accordingly, usurPinS pOwe. which even tho

The venerable Senators of the United States
took occasion to signshze their removal from their
old quarters into new hall, built and fitted up
with total re gardessne's Of expense, by debate
on the necessity Of public economy. The fresh
specimen Of national extrsvagance which their
new hall presented, and the lavish expense squan-
dered upon it and its accessories, might well
inspire some serious reflection and we are assured
by telegraph-though we must confess rather to
lack confidence in telegraph criticism, whatever
implicit confidence we msy give to its news-thas
the debate upon the subec. of economy which
followed the removal into the new hall was
altogether the most sensible ono lately heard
in the Senste All well! thought we, if
the Senate is at last reused TO q just sense
Of the hcadlong career Of public extravaganza,
then the luxurious wastefuness which has produced
that result may turn out after all to be good in-
vestlnept But it seems this fit Of economy was but
mere spasm a mere belchng of empty breath
from the lungs Of the honorable Senators, mere
wordy tribute to economy-lke the praises Of rural
life ard hard labor INDUCED in by luxurious poets,
who never handled hoe in their lives. For, after
motion the next morning, the effect Of which
would be to give the whole subject the goby.
To eIpect any thing like retrenchment and reform
from this Administration would, indeed, DO folly
In fact, the President has given out, so it is said,
that if this Congress do not provide means for
filing up the Treasury, he will call the new one
together at the earliest possible moment. AZ it
grows more and more evident that the reign Of this
dynasty is short, as the handwriting appears on
the wsll-Thou art weighed 10 the balance and
found wanting-stl more vsibly, so much stronger
is the RESOLUTION Of those now in power to give a
long pull strong pull, and pull altogether at the
pubic Treasury As the two first years of
Buchapans Administration cost the nation more
than any other two years in the history Of our
Government so it may well be expected that the
two remaining years will Guido even their imme-
date predecessors. Mr. Calhoun justly designated
the party now in power as the spoiI' party, and
that appellAtion they will struggle to deserve to the
last

The year opens bloodily in the metropolis.
Within the present week our local columns have
recorded the shooting Of Mrs. Brown, the st,bbiDg
of Patrick Cosgrove, the murder of jeremiah F..
Looney, the murder Of Mathew dc Sansez, the
stsbbing Of Francis J. Reynolds, tbs shooting OF
Edward Helm and the murder of Harmon Curnon
the latter event being fully detailed in this morn
ipg's edition. Beside these, we have given num-
Der of slight afrays, which, although of grave
character, are Insignificant in the presence OF the
sapguinsry horrors here alluded 10. Most of these
crimes are The direct offspring Of the low gros-
shops which curse every corner Of the city, poison
ing alike the morals Of the people and the at
mosphere they breathe. The case of Curnon is
one of different character. Innate bloodthrsti-
ne.s, excited by Jealousy produced the terrible
result
