THE SUsQUEHANNA.-The latest news rom
the river is to the effect that no material
change has taken place there since Tuesday
The water, which backed up at the confu-
ence of the Octoraro with the Susquehanna
and ran down the old Maryland canal, caus
ing all the inhabitants living between the
river and the canal to vacate their dwellings,
has fallen again. The rain of Wednesday
morning caused great apprehensions, but rs
the weather has been so much colder since,
the people along the river banks feel that II
short respite has been granted them.
On Wednesday Hon. Jacob Tome and Mr.
Mcclellan, representing the common coun-
Gil of Port Deposit, visited Baltimore city,
and applied for the use of the ice.boat Mary
land to break the ice, and relieve the people
of Port Deposit; but it was found imprac.
ticable for the vessel to cross the flats below
Havre de Grace.
The attempt of Capt. Myers, to break the
ice with his ug-boat having failed, it is pro-
bable that an attempt will be made with nj
tro glycerine.
Advices from above state that the river is
not rising at Columbia, and that the ice has
broken from Harrisburg to Goldsboro.

THE TIDEwATER CANAL.-It isimpossible,
at present, to estimate the damage that has
been done to this Canal by the washing away
of its banks, destruction of locks, &c, but we
hope the fears which have been expressed
that it has been irreparably damaged, are
exaggerated. One thing is certain, that if
repairs are possible, the energetic Superinten-
dent, Mr.. D. F. Shure, will speedily put the
canal in working order, when the spring
opens. He is emphatically the right man in
the right place.

Republican Simplicity.

Ben. Butler, of Massachusetts, chairman
of the committee on the judiciary, last week
introduced into Congress bill to increase the
salaries of certain government officials, rs
follows
President of the United States, $50 900 !;
VicePresident ofthe United States, $4,000 {;
Chief Justice of the United States, $10,500;
Justices of United States Supreme Court,
$4,000; cabinet officers $4,000; Speaker
ofthe House, $4,000; members of Congress,
$4,000.
The committee in their report argue that the
present salary of the President, which was
fixed eighty years ago, is in value not more
than one-fourth Of the amount originally Civ
en-.
The committee urge another reason-that
is, that custom and public sentiment forbid
an ex-President from all active money max
ing pursuits, and that he ought to have suf
ficient provision while in office to enable him
when he leaves to be free from the necessity
of occupation.
The latter reason, we imagine, will have
but little weight with the heavily burdened
taxpayers of the country, so far as the pres
ent incumbent ofthe Presidential chair is con-
cerned. He, at least, has chosen to set aside
"custom and public sentiment" in the mat
ter of money making, and has neglected no
opportunity to feather his nest, by specua-
tions not always of the most unquestionable
character Besides, Presidents Of the "purer
days" were accustomed to pay the expen-
ses of their household out of their own sala.
ries; while in latter days, the Executive has
been relieved of one household expense after
another, until the amount appropriated to his
support. including his salary, has reached
the neat little sum of $93,2S0. The addition
al allowance is as follows:
Rent, $4,000
Twenty servants 10000
Furnace-keepcr at the Presidents house, 72O
Two policemen at the Presidents house. 2640
Doorkeeper at the Presidents house, 1000
Assistant doorkeepcr at the Presidents
house. 720
Annual repairs at the Presidents house, 10, 600
Refurnishing the President house. 10000
Fuel for the Presidents house 5000
Greenhouse and plants 5000
Presidents house, 5000
TO which add yearly salary of $25, 900,
and we have the respectable total of $50, $50.
Our vote on the question is emphatically no !!

CREDIT MoBILIER.-On Tuesday Vice
President ColfaX was before the invcstiga
ting committee at Washington. Cakes Ames
was also present with his famous memoran-
dunn book, which contained entries of various
sums paid Colfax and others, including the
81 200 check, alleged to have been paid to
ColfaX. The latter made minute eXplana-
ton of the source from which he had receiv
ed a certain 81 200 which he deposited in
bank, and which he AYERS was not received
from Ames. A strong case of circumstan-
tial evidence to say the least, is made out
against Mr. ColfaX, and if he is innocent
wrong has been done him which can not
easily be repaired. The strange forgefulness
of the principal actors in this drama is some
what singular; and one thing is quite evident,
