Governor Letcher, last Saturday, Introduced
10 the House of Delegates, dog tax law, that
has every appearance OF meaning business. 1t
imposes tax Of dollar or two on every dog
10 the State, most of them worthless, and sheep
stealers besides, and makes it misdemea DOR
hoable in the sum of not less than three dol
lars nor more than five to fail to pay the same
within ten days of the lawful demand. The
bill mercifully provides that the misdemeanapt
may be relieved Of the tax by agreeing to kill
the dogs and paying the tax. The bill further
provides that it shall be misdemeauor to keep
or harbor sheep killing dog, &C., on a penalty
of not less than ten dollars nor more than
twenty, and that in payment of the dog tax
the following scaps may be received Wolf
scaps at two dollars each, and the scalps of
bears, wild cats, and red foxes at one dollar
each--provided the animals be killed within
the limits Of the State, by the citizens thereof.
Ii this bill be passed and vigorously executed,
a great source Of revenue 10 the wool growing
industry, for which Virginia is so admirably
adapted, would be opened up to the struggling
farmers Of the State.

Q. 4 0. CANAL.-A letter from Cumber.
land 10 the Baltimore American says:
The severe cold weather the past few days
has closed navigation entirely on the Chesa
peake and Ohio Canal for the season, which
has been moderately prosperous one to the
coal companies and to the boatmen, although
few of the latter have complained little of
the low freights. Only eleven boats left dur
ing the past week, carrying 1,l7l.29 tons of
coal. There have been no shipments since
Friday, and the labors of the mule are over for
at least eight or ten weeks. The canal has
been great aid to our city, and when it is 10
a prosperous condition our city feels the good
effects. When it suffers our city suffers, and
when the season closes business OF course is
dull. Uuder different management the canal
could be made large source of revenue to the
State, and it is now confidently expected that
the next Legislature will make full investiga-
ton of its affairs. Very often boats are delay.
ed on account of defective locks, and the Civ
ing way Of the banks on either side, which
could be remedied by judicious mauag cement.
Boats which ought to be condemned are allow
ed to depart laden with coal, and before they
get to Georgetown they sink and cause much
delay.
