The only argument the Ssntin4 makes
against the construction Of the canal is, that
it will not pay as pecuniary investment. It

the statement that the railroads can Success

tco preposterous to require any refutation.

ten cents bushe1, while it costs seven cents

THE POSSIBILITY OF RUPTURE.
The report speaks OF the possibility Of q rnp-
turc with Great Britain. While such an event
would be deeply dcplored, it must be con
fesscd that there are irritating questions still
unsettled, which may lead to the necessity of
. war.
LAKE DEFESsES.
The question arises, What would be tho
cheapest aud most efEectual method Of defend
ing the Lakes, and enabling US to assert our
supremacy over them in case Of War? The
report discusses two propositions which have
been enunciatcd, and shows their nonfcasi-
bility. They are:
l. By constructing navy yard On the borders Of
some ono ofthc inland sheets Of water tributary I'd
the lakes.
= Dy constructing vessels In psrts. and
transporting them to the places required ready
to be set up.

of the commonwealth for the year 1868, from
ordinary resources, exclusive of direct taxes,
amounts to 81, 1872 700. The estimated ordi-
nary expenses amount to 81, 0,000 claims
of cities and towns to be reimbursed for aid
rendered to families of volunteers $2,000,0O0;
interest on funded debt $3.50, 900; total
So, $4,000. Deducting the ordinary revenue
there is 81 ,292 300 for which provision is this
year to be made.
The detailed statement of expenses for 1862
shows that the cost of the executive and vari-
GUS state departments last year, was $94, O9+,-

of the Judiciary $l7O,3G6 91 of the board of

The auditor sums up his varied report with
the statement that the finances of the COM
monwealth were never in more prosperous
condition. The Union loan sinking fund will
pay the military loan at maturity. The sums
loaned to railroad corporations, with slight
exceptions, are amply secured by mortgages
on the roads. Bonds for other purposes are
secured by sinking funds. The state does not
owe dollar of floating debt, while there is
an ample working balance of cash on hand.

WASHINGTON, Jan. IA, 1862.
This has been great day in the house.
The members were all in their seats, the gal
leres were filed, and at an early hour Mr..
Vallandigham obtained the floor and Gym
menced a speech in his usual vein. The
house listened with profound attention. The
speech occupied an hour and quarter. 1t
was exceedingly able, ingenious and eloquent.
Vallandigham showed himself the ablest man
of his party, holding seat in the house of
representatives, and as INSCRIPTIONS as he
was able. You will see, before this, his
speech in print. The great idea was that the
war was caused by the fanatcism of the north,
and peace could only be made and the Union
restored, as he maintained it would be- but
by the exclusion of New England, by leaving
her, as he said, ''out in the cold" or by
crushing out the puritan element of New
England"
When he had taken his seat, Mr.. Bingham
of Ohio obtained the floor and commenced
| reply. Not knowing the power Of Mr.. Bing-
ham, feared he would hardly be match for
casion for any anxiety. 1t became apparent
very soon that Vallandigham had not only
met his equal but superior. His speechwas
decidedly the most eloquent made during the
| present session. Occasionally applause would

the same length of time allowed to his col
league, and concluded with peroration that
brought tears to the eyes of many present;
and think that, by general consent it was
agreed that the two gentlemen who had thus
met in collision were the worthy champions Of
| their respective parties. Mr.. Bingham has
not been reelected to the house, but there is
great consolation in the fact that Mr. Vallan-
digham has also been defeated.
Mr.. Bingham had no sooner taken his seat,
than Mr.. Wright of Pennsylvania, Union
democrat, took the floor. believe there was
general feeling that he could not sustain the
interest which had been awakened the house,
but this was mistake. His speech was most
impressive and eloquent. The whole house
gathered around him, and his remarks often
elected applause. His closing words, in
which he alluded to the son he had lost IN the
service Of the country, were very affecting.
This has been by far the most interesting de-
bate that the present session has afforded
