From the M'detown Transcript, 2Ithl
The inauguration Of the work upon this great
enterprise, took place on Monday last, on the
property OF Mr. G. Ferguson, near Blackbird, ,ar d
upon Backblrd creek. Although no public
demonstration was intended, yet the news of tho
work brought together about ono hundred per-
cons. General Brown, @. + as representative
Of the company, addressed those persons pres
ent IN a brief, candid, frank manner stating that
the enterprise we are about to inaugurate was
considered in the Commercial Circle OF both this
country and Europe, as one Of the grandest
enterprises of the age. That the compa y
have acted in good faith in every step taken
in this matter, and honestly intended to complete
this work. That nothing but reverses by fnan-
clal crisis could prevent 1t, and then, the
hour Of IL noon had arrived, said 81, now as
representative OF the Maryland and Delaware
Slip Canal Company, proceed formally to begin
tie work OF actual construction" at the same
time throwing the first shovel of earth into the
cart This was followed. by all present, and the
con co, Mr. Kenneday, then placed the hands
ut work. At present, but n comparatively small
force arc engaged, owing to the extreme cold
weather and the difficulty in removing the earth
hy carts. As soon the earth settles, ard the
weather is favorable, the company propose to in :
crease the labor by all the modern appliances of
machinery, and expect to complete the work in

l'OliIicaI Notes.

The correspondent of the New York Times
who is writing up the Connecticut campaign
says it now appears that the Democrats will
make no open canvass of tho State. 1t has
leaked out this morning that Senators Thurman
and Herman are not coming into the State, nor
is it entirely certain that Senator Bayard will be
here"
When Senator Christiancy spoke and voted
against the admission of Pnchback. he was en-
dorsed by the Democratic press as lawyer, Ju-
rist and statesman of the highest order. When
he voted for the resolution approving the conrse q
OF the President as regards the Louisiana dlifi-
Guilty, the Democratic press had nothing to say
about him. Tie reason of this silence is appar'
ent. To be lawyer, jurist aud statesman, one
must do something to encourage the chances OF
the Democracy
Alabama is one of the reconstructed Southern
States blessed with Democratic Legislature
The result ia an increase of S9l, 900 i'll the gen
eral appropriation bill over the amount appro
prlated for the same purposes by the Repub
c,ns when they controlled affairs.
