The defal ofthe bfll for the enlargement of
the Illinois and New York canal for the pur-
pose Of National defence, has called earnest at
tentIOn to the proposition for the construction
Of ship canal around the Falls Of Niagara,
within our territory, ortbe purpose OF connect
ing the waters of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario.
The feasibility Of the plan was determined as
long ago as 1880, by the very able survey and
report Of Lieut.. Albert, of the Typographical
Corps, and the measure now assumes great i'm
portance as means Of national defence, and
as an outlet for the rapidly increasing com
merce Of the great West. The high rate Of
freight now imposed on the produces Of the val
ley Of the Mississippi demonstrates fully the ne
cesslty of enlarged facilities for transportation,
while the threatening aspect Of our foreign re-
lations fully ylndicates the wisdom Of looking
into the measure as a means OF defence In the
event OF war.
Owing to the great Importance Of the meas
ure, both as a commercial one and as a means
of public defence, we have been to some trouble
to collect the following facts and figures, which
we present to the public as the strongest argu-
ment that can be made 10 sustain the truth Of
our proposition, and for the correctness and
reliability of which we fully youch.
According to the returns made to the Canal
Auditor for the state Of New York for the year
1869, tho whole amount Of tolls received on the
canals of that State in 1862 was S5,250, 600;
Of this amount 5s.T per cent. equal to g., 3,0S4,-
Os2 was collected at Buffalo. At Oswego there
was received lie per cent. equal to $3.50, ,T5s,
these being the two principal points at which
the products from the West are received for
transportation eastward.
IN 1862 there was exported by canal from
Rnlfaln alone as follows:
Daily national Republican., 1863-02-21


From 1s47 to 1862, inclusive, 6l ,1s4 ri tons
have been transported on the canals of New
York, paying gross revenue of S49,657, ,OTs-
of which amount 1904, ,573 have been coll
lected at Buffalo. ..
In 1850, the product Of wheat In the States
bordering on the Lakes, as per the U. S. pre-
liminary census, was 90, ,39s 900 hnshels; and
If we assume the ratio increase to be the same
for the next as for the ten years, we safely cal
culate the product to be 200, 900, 900 of bushels
In 1869, there were ID, 800 clearances granted
at the port of Buffalo, and In 1859, there were,
at the same port, 9,44l, showing an increase OF
6,9I9 In ten years.
In 1869, the tonnage entering the port Of Buff
falo was 6,6Sg,l9l tons, and in 1852, 1t was
3,O92, ,247 tons, showing an increase In ten years
of 3, 500 ,944 tons, or $500 tons per year.
There Is one remarkable fact connected with
the commerce Of the West, the large staple OF
which is corn. In 1850 more than II 900, 900
of bushels of corn was consumed In the manu-
facture of spirituOus and malt liquors. Yet OF
the large crop produced in the States bordering
upon the lakes, no more than about I've per
cent of the crop has been moved by the canals
of the State OF New York in any preceding
year. In the last fourteen years there has been
transported only about l6O,OOO,O 900 of bushels
of corn upon the New York canals, which ID
only about the crop produced In Illinois alone
in 1850. The figures above given do not In
clude the eastward movement by rail which
would probably add thirty-seven and a.half pei
cent. to the figures given.

TARIFF ON WHITE PAPER.

there are two hundred manufacturers in the
country who protest against any reduction in
the tariff on white printing paper; and there are
twenty millions of people, who, If they could
speak and DO heard In Washington, would
shake tho capital to Its very foundations, de-
handing that such q reduction be Instantly
made. Now, Messrs. Senators and Represen-
tatives, choose We, before the 4th day Of March,
whom ye will serye--the t,ro hundred or the
TWENTY. MILLIONS.
In view Of the proposed reduction in the
tariff, or what would be far better, Its entire
abolition or suspension, paper has already fall
len considerably. Newspaper publishers won't
make contracts, now, in view of the expected
action Of Congress, and the paper-makers al
ready begin to feel that they have made mis-
.aks in striking for higher profits.
AL that is wanted to keep paper down and
send 1t back to old prices, is Congressional Sc
lion. II we can't have that, the two hundred
paper-makers will clap their hands, and say
again TO all newspaper publishers, eve have
-ot you in our power" advance their prices,
twhen Congress RdjournsO and twenty mil
Lions Of people will hang their heads and pro-
Lest-in vim. We dent believe members OF
Congress will care to face such public sentl-

Commission houses in New York already say
paper Is going up SOON" They know very
well that the monopollsts will hold a meeting
Immediately after the 4th Of March, (lf the tar
ID remains unchanged and recommend" an
advance in prices.
Messrs. Congressman, lot the people have
trSad for the body, and bread for the mind,
without let or hindrAnce of tariff. A nation
fIarvin in either 10 a nation bereft-ruined. A
nation well-fed In both cannot be overthrown
or destroyed. Shut up the channels Of lntelli-
gence among free people, and you blind the
eyes of all business men. No nation ran stand
nigh, commercially, which does not remove
every Obstacle In Its power to the freest dissem-
nation Of knowledge. Stop our printing
presses to-day, abd tomorrow we shall be ready
Tor JsH. Davis.
Hon. Schuyler ColGaI has nobly labored for
The measure, and We should like to place on
record the yeas and nays on the proposed
change In the law, at the earliest possible mo-
nent. It's said that majority Of the Com
mittss OF Ways and Means are determined to
sIoPt gtrGHgtaatiOn as the only "means " In
heir power to kill the measure. We don't be-
lteye 1t. They are sensible men, and, thug far,
as a whole, have good reputation for looking
all such questions square in the face. All we
l.sk Of them now is, report on the subject
yea or nay. When once before Congress, the
matter win soon be disposed Of, and we have
10 fears as 10 the result.-N. Y. Independent.

CHARLES CARROLL HICKS, THE sPY.
Charles Carroll Hicks, the rebel spy, arrested
At the St. Nicholas hotel, In New York, yester-
day, obtained bis title as "Colonel" while
ASrving with "FInibuSter'' Walker, In Central
America. General" Wheat, another flIlibus-
ter and rebel, (lately killed in the rebel nrmy,)
and Carroll were boon companions. Certain
New Yorksrs well remember the great sacrifice
they made to 1t out Wheat and Carroll, to en-
bsldi's liberAting army, in Italy. After making
all the display they could, and spending all the
money they obtained in, New York, they re-
turned. They were operating with Walker, as
nlibusters, 10 initiate the rebellion, in which
they both figured so extensively until Wheat
was killed, and Hicks was arrested at his old
haunt, the bar room Of the St. Nicholas hotel,
in New York. The Government has not been
in possession Of a more thorough, active, orlgi-
nal, desperate, and dangerous man, since the
rebellion broke out. We hope It will make an
example Of him. Hicks was evidently induced
10 venture into New York city by the boldness
of some Of his old companions, who are to-day
the leading "CoppsrheAds' of that city.
New York city, In consequence Of the vaunt.
ing display of the rebel sympathlzers who live
there, contains to-day more spies from the
South than any other city in the Union, not
excepting Washington. 30 bold and outspoken
have the "Copperhead" rebels OF New York
city become, that the leading traitors of the
South arc actually returning to it; and in the
face of the well known fact that they have
worn the rebel uniform, fought in the rebel
ranks, trampled upon the Union hAg and shot
down It's defenders, they walk through Its pub.

Frauds Upon the CustOm-Houss.

Secretary Chase has sent to the Senate a
statement of the Solicitor of the Treasury, who
has been successfully engaged In ferreting out
frauds upon the revenue, practiced by importers
with the connivsnce Of officials in the New
York custom house. One Van Yechten has
been dismissed and Crlminally proceeded
against, and Messrs. Ellis and Griggs have
been suspended, each charged with frauds,
chiefly through the device Of false invoices. 1t
is also charged that smuggling in silks, laces,
and jewelry is prncticCd with the knowledge or
default Of officials. The frauds extend back
six or seven years, and the abuses are pre-
sumed to be still more hoary with age. One
clerk has gained thirty thousand dollars in
eight years, on a salary of one thousand dollars.
Van Vechten admits receiving perquisites to
the amount Of twenty-five hundred per yearO
The Solicitor recommends the passage of a
law for the prevention, detection, and punish
ment of such fauds, prohibiting all emolu-
mcnts from importers to officials, and for Sc
curing proof Of such frauds, and regulating the
matter of invoices.
