ufacturers complain that the wages
paid by them are more than they can
afford, and that they, therefore, favor
the cheaper standard of silver as the
surest method of reducing the wages
of English laboring men. This idea
may have occasionally found a
dreamy Judgment on this side of the
Atlantic; but here, in a free country,
such pinching by artfully lowering
the standard of money could not be
enforced An old neighbor of mine, a
good deacon, as we'll as a good Judge
and lover of horses, once told me
that he sometimes made a good
horse trade before he got up in the
morning, but found, after he got up
that the other fellow wouldn't agree
to it. When the greedy employers
get up in the morning after the free
coinage of silver, they will not find
shoemakers, weavers, and iron found
ers ready to agree to a reduction of
their wages by bogus standard of
money.-Senator Morrill,.

The Nicaragua Canal.

1t is understood that the govern
ment commissioners sent out to in
vestigate the Nicaragua canal, who
are now on their way home, will
make a favorable report on the en-
terprise. They will give as their
unanimous conclusion that the Col
orado bar, which has caused so much
trouble at the entrance to Greytown
harbor, can be partially removed by
dredging, and permanent opening
through it maintained. A slight
change in the proposed route of the
canal will be recommended, owing to
a belief that several serious obstacles
exist on the route as heretofore laid
down. The commissioners think
that the work of constructing the
canal can be ended in six or seven
years, but that the total cost will
considerably exceed the limit set by
the projectors, and that $110,000,-
900 will not be an excessive figure.
The Vermont legislature having
granted the charter for the reorgan-
lied company, all Vermonters have
a special reason for hoping to see
this great enterprise become a sue
cess.-PhoeniX.
