According to an account OF the shlpouldlns
interest in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia,
which is given by the St. John Telegraph,
twenty seven thousand tons Of shipping were
built in St. John harbor and its immediate
neighborhood in 1871. On the other hand,
while St. John is so rapidly building frst-class
vessels, the old shipbuiding ports OF Name
though not deficient in capital or cheap labor,
are launching but two or three vessels OF lnte-
rior grade. Upon this, the Baltimore Sun re-
marks, where double the natural profit on the
building of vessel is demanded in tariff tri-
butes, capital and labor are wasted in ship
building

WEST EIRGINIAs PORTION OF THE DEBT
\ gentleman writes to us as follows from the
Louisiana State University, at Baton Rouge:
The people of East and West Virginia were
a Joint stock company under the title OF the
State of Virginia. they contracted debt upon
the implied security of the taxable property
found within the limits of the State, and if
States could be sued like individuals the whole
property of the State, unless exempt by special
laws, would be seized under writ of execution
to be sold and the proceeds to be applied IN
discharge of the Indebtedness of the State.
The division of Virginia into two States does
neither change the character Of the debt nor
the liability Of the original debtors, and both
States, if suable, would actually be liable in
law, not for part, but for the payment OF the
whole debt, if either party should prove insol-
vent and unable to discharge its distrlbutlvc
proportion. But as both States are solvent
the distribution Of the liabilities must be made
upon an equitable basis, and this basis in the
proportion ofthc taxable property held by each
State at the time the division took place.
This I4ouisiauian has hit the nail on the
head. The value Of the partnership assets
having been estimated, and the proportion
which fell to either partner having been stated,
nothing remains to he done except to divide
the debt according to the taxable property held
in the two States-say in 1861. We do not
suppose that West Virginia will object to so
fair proposition. If she should, hers will be
the disgrace of rcpudiating an honest debt
