Notices Of the Press.
No more delightful travels are printed
in the English language than appear per-
petually in HARPEn's MAGAZINE. They
are read with equal interest and satisfac-
sion by boys of every grade from eighteen
to eighty. Its scientific papers, while suf-
6ciently profound to demand the attention
Of the learned, are yet admirably adapted
to the popular understanding, and design
ed as much to difuse correct information
concerning current scientific discovery as
it could be if it was the organ of the 80
ciety fol- the Diffusion of Useful Knowl-
edge" The great design Of HARPER's is
to give correct information and rational
amusement to the great masses Of the peo-
pie. There are few intelligent American
families in which HAnPER;s MAGAZINE
would not be an appreciated and highly
welcome guest. There is no monthly
Magazine On intelligent reading family can
less afford to be without. Many Maya
zines are accumulate HARPER's is edit
ed. There is not q agazine that is print
ed which shows more intelligent pains ex-
on its articles and mechanical execution.
There is not q cheaper Magazine publish
cd. There is not, confessedly, q more por.
ular Magazine in the world.

WEEKLY, sEM1-wEEKLY, AND DAILY

Ike Weekly Sun is too widely known to
require an extended recommendation; but
the reasons which Lave already given it fifty
thousand subscribers, and which will, we
hope, give it many thousands more, are as
follows:
It il q frst-rate newspaper. All the news
Of the day will be found i n it, condensed when
uninportant, at full length when Of moment,
and always presented in q clear, ineligible,
and interesting manner.
1t is a frst-rate family paper, full Of enter
tanning and instructive reading of every kind,
but containing nothing that can offend the
most delicate and scrupulous taste.
It is q first-rate story paper. Tho best
tales and romances of current literature are
carefully selected and legibly printed in its
pages.
It is a frst-rate agricultural paper. The
most fresh and instructive articles on agri-
cultural topics regularly appear in this de-
partment.
IL It is an Independent political paper, be-
longing to no party and wearing no collar.
It fights for principle, and for the election Of
the best men to Office. It especially devotes
it's energies to the exposure Of the great cor
ruptions that now weaken and disgrace our
country, and threaten to undermine Repub-
lican institutions altogether. 1t has no fear
Of knavcs, and asks no favors from their sup
porters.
It reports the fashions for the ladies and
the markets for the men, especially the cat
tie markets, to which it pays particular at
tentien.
Finally, it is the cheapest paper published.
One dollar q year will secure it for any sub
scriber. It is not necessary to get up a club
in order to have The Weekly Sun at this rate.
ANY one who sends o single dollar will get
the paper for a year.

Poor Show for the Canal.

Jlr. Waldo NJ. Potter, editor Of the Dav-
export Gazette writes letter to that paper
from which we clip the following:
WAsHlNGToN, Dee. 23-The Ilennepin
canal project now occupies vantage ground
which must be gratifying to all its true
friends. The Canal Committee, without
dissent, ordered a favorable report, and
the bill awaits the suspicious moment
when Mr.. Hawley viii feel warranted in SO
far throwing himself upon the generosity
of the house as to ask that it be taken up
ont Of its ordor. This is the only process
! by which it can be reached, as the Commit
tee is not likely to be called on for reports,
under the rules, during the entire session
To get the bill up will require two thirds
vote. So it will be seen what difficulties
must be overcome to get through oHe
house, to say nothing Of two. mention
| these facts 10 show how necessary 1t was to
begin early, and work hard if success was
to be obtained, and how mistaken those
| friends Of the measure we're who argued
in favor of putting off all effort until after
the holiday recess. ] all bad acted on
that policy have no doubt that 1t would
have proved fatal. \ very important
work has been done here, while members
| have not been under pressure las they will
| be after the recess in dlssipaing prGju-
dice, aud preparing the way for be9tn-
| nina in waterway mprOvement-iOr

most necessary enterprises. We have IN
I sisted that the grain growers oil the
| Northwest mast be heard this session.
me effect of those appeals has been pos
! tive, and the influence thus created, at an
early period OF the session, while opinion
was forming, has afforded our workers
here the only hope they have entertained
that the bill can be passed before the 4th
of march. Ii the Home Committee had
been equally prompt aud struck while the
iron was hot. immediately after their ap-
pointment, they would have found more
generous response in material aid and
more aacrity in circulating memorials,
than fear they are likely to after setting
the example Of delay. 1t is astonishing
how popular interest wanes when leaders
lack enthusiasm. But | trust that no one
will permit his zeal on the canal to slacken
for this. or any other cause. The build
ing of the Hcnnepin canal over-tops all
| other enterprises in Importance tn theregl
| in which it is to be located. Capitalists,
corporations, real estate dealers, mer-
chants, manufacturers, farmers the
whole community, in city and country
are vitality interested, and every man
should be willing to do his share, in pay
ing and woI king that the matter may be
urgently pressed upon the attention OF
Congress. We ought 70 win, and we can
VIM by wise and energetic action.
