Results of Spring Elections

Black RePublicanism has met with sad
reverses Of late.
The Republicans have lost two Congress
men in Connecticut.
Rhode Island has been swept by the
Democrats with the gain of two Congress-
men.
Tho Democrats have also carried the fol.
lowing cities, each gain:
Cincinnati, by 2 500; st. Louis, by ., 700;
Cleveland, by 500; Sandusky, by l65 To>
le6o, by $50.
In Michigan and other sections, where
elections have been held, the results show
that Republicanism is rapidly on the wane.
The people are beginning to get their eyes
open, and woe to the party whose sectional
triumph has brought ruin upon the coun~
try.

Steam Canal from the Lakes to
the MiSSisSiDDi.

New York papers are advocating the
construction of a steam canal from the
Lakes to the Illinois river, SO that vessels
may go from the Lakes to the Mississippi
and Gulf of Mexico. They regard the
work Of vast Importance to the prosperity
of Eastern and Western commerce, and
look to its completion as one OF the neces
sites that must be provided.
- 1t is estimated that the improvement
could be made for S4.000,00O. A width of
one hundred feet and depth of eight feet.
from the mouth of the Chicago river at
Bridgeport to the Illinois river, would be
sufficient. All steamers navigating the
Western rivers could then pass into the
Lakes without breaking bulk
Four millions of dollars is indeed small
sum in comparison to the work sought to
be accomplished, ard we trust that if Gov.
Yates deems it necessary to convene the
Legislature in extra session that he will
embrace the enlargement of the Illinois
and Michigan canal, or the construction of
steam canal, as an object for legislative
action. The most liberal encouragement
should be given to an improvement that
would be of such incalculable benefit to
the State and country at large.
The people of Chicago should take a deep
interest in the matter. That city would be
rendered the empire city of the West by a
canal of the kind named, while all the
country, villages, towns and cities on the
line of the present canal, as well as the IL
linois river from La Sale to St. Louis, would
be immensely benefited.
The New York papers argue that such a
canal would secure the best part of the
commerce Of the whole country lying be,
tween the Allegheny and Rocky Noun,
tains, and they contend that even the cotton
of northern Alabama and northern Missis-
sippi, with that of Tennessee, would find
its way to the markets of Europe by the
channel, as cheaper and more expeditions
route than by the mouth of the Missis-
sippi.
This project of steam canal is no new
one. 1t has been advocated for years by
Chief Engineer Gooding, Lieut.. Maury,
Judge Douglas. Messrs. Ogden, Randall,
McRoberts, and other men of eminence and
sound Judgment. We are glad to see that
the attention of commercial men on the
Atlantic coast is being called TO it. New
York city alone would make money by
undertaking aud completing the improve
ment without aid from any other quarter.
1t would nearly double the commerce of
that city and make it the great mart for
the West and the Southwest.
Let no one suppose this visionary pro
ject. 1t is not SO. The times demand the
completion Of such a work, and it is being
aGitated now in the right quarter.

QUESTIONS FOR LiNCoLN's CABINET.-Did
Lincoln receive orders from Scott to take
IA hasty plate of SOUP" before he started
out on his nocturnal ride from Harrisburg
Did he borrow that old military Cloak
from niger, or did SCOTS WARDROBE
furnish the article?
What has become of that Scotch Cap =
Did it possess the property of rendering
old Abe "invisblc ?"
Didn't old Abe put on pair of "Scveh

Why did he not stay to protect his wife
on that pcrilous trip, instead of flying in
gloriously, as soon as he scented little
danger?
Did he travel on the Under Ground Rail-
road like the regular passengers on that
line? And did he have his face 6lacked a

Abe must answer these questions to the
satisfaction of his people, and last, but not
least, has he yet learned the steps so impor-
tant to the success of his future appearance
in Washington society?

Negroes and Northern Claims.

While the Republicans in Congress have
been discussing the propricty of passing
"forcc bill" and urging it with great perth
naeity, would it not be we'll for the Legisla-
lures of the seeding States to attend to
some matters of interest, greatly affecting
our mercantile citizens? We mean this:
That the Abolioniss have denied the right
Of property in ncgrocs,-have declared that
slavery is sectional not national, and the
creature of local and municipal legislation
that man has no right in man as an ar
ticle of property, and that negroes are
citizens and not chattles; that in as mnch
as they have contcndcd against our rights
in this particular, let the seeding States
s;rr them the practical benefit of their own
teachings, by e1emptng negroes from forced
sales to satisfy Northern debts. The only OBJ
lection that could be urged against the en-
actment of such a statute, would be that
many of the Northern creditors are South
erners in feeling and are our best friends
This may be so, but at the same time, i
WOulu tOuCn tnc ~ UNIV 'hSi
pockets, to feel this matter practically car
ricd out in accordance with Northern senti
mcnt.
The most cruel and unrclenting OF al
buyers and sellers of negro property arr
the Northern men who attend the sales
negroes in the South. They shrink no
from the separation of man and wife
mother and child, under the Sheriff 5 ham
mer; while the Southern master, with tru
patriachal tenderness, has ever revolte'
from the violent separation of the mother
from her infant. IL negroes are not prop
crty in the estimation of our Abolition
neighbors, let us prevent them by positiv
snactmcnts from deriving any pccuniar,
advantages from the factsi in the case as the,
actually exist among us. Let negroes b
exempt from forced sale to satisfy thci
claims, md it will be one of the most et
fccual peace-measures that could be adopte
and far more potent compromise than an

OLD ABE BLACKS HIS OWN Doors

OLD ABE BLACKS HIS OWN Doors.
A correspondent of the Tribune,
in his great admiration Of old Abe,
gets off the following gossip about
his private amuscments:
Perhaps it is not known as much
as it ought to be, that the President
elect is in the habit of acting as his
own servant, ,;blacl>ing his own boots
and brushing his own clothes, and
that he will not allow himself to be
served. He intends to adhere to
this habit also at the White House.
/ cannot imagine the beautiful eff
feet of the contrast, if one day the
English or French Ambassador
should pay him visit, earl y in the
morning, and find him at the back
door of the White House engaged
in polishing his brogans, with the
profound air of a freeman, sclt-dc-
pcndent and self-reliant. Such a
man we need, in order to brush and
scrub the puffed-up aristocrats oi
the South, and extract a little Of the
dust from their jackets.
