Ho sald he approactied his task with no little reluctance, Tho more ho considered ity from year to year, the more ho was impressed with TIE MAGNITUDE AND IMPORTAKCE OF TIE BUD- J8CT which here engaged their attention. Tothose present, with others, was Intrusted the ores- ervation of the vital military germ from which our couutry expecta great armics to spring in time of public danger. And they were expected to improve and perfect the methods by which such armies wero to bo rapldly broucht into & stato of miature strength and effective action. He could bardly find words to express his senso of the great reeponsibility which was thus de- volved upon them, and of the importance of thorough preparation to fulflll all the dutles which the safety of thelr country might require ot thelr bands, To aid them In making.thls preparation was the deslgn of the Institutlon. ‘The peaceful art, sclences, ana industries of a people mizht carry the nation steadily, though slowly, forward In wealth and prosperity.

One should look at the fizures and see If the canal had been man- aged cconomically or not. The farmers bad complained sgainst extortion on the part of the railroads, and a railroad law was passed, With five years’ experience, had they gotten any pro- tection? The Board of Rallroad Commlssioners was expensive; 10 was that of the canal. What had the latter douel What had farmers gotten from them? The rates were kept up hbigh to bencit the rallroads, The Rock Island . Roed was required in 1ts charter to pay toll tothe canal, but {t had not, nor had it payed a cent for ite right of way. Merchandise was driven from tho cansl to the raliroads before 1848. The rates were then re- duced, but not until after many contracta had been made with therallroads. The inansgers of tho canal had been the appointees of those tn- tercsted in raliroads. In 1571 the canal passed out of the hands of the Trustces. Relief was then expected, but the Commlssioners were ap- pointed by the ralirond men. This was trucof all members except omo of the first three Boards. TAERE WAS KO RELIEF.

The question was, How could the people hold on to the fes of the canall Mr. Ialey would not be squelcbed, and, as the Chalrman did not rule on the pofut of order, ne went on to say that the question of tolls had n great deal to do with transportation, advocat- ing the doing away with them altogether, and makiog the canal free. Then there would bea fair and open fight between the boats and rall- roads, Pcople had to pay tolls snyway, dircete Iy or indirectly. The canal sbould be uncer their manngement, and not under that of rall- road representatives.

When he moved an aajournment two weeks 8o, he d1d so because bia understood the Rock Island Railroad was required by its charter 10 pay tolls to the canal, but he had discovered on looking Into the matter that the proviston was operative only while tho canal was in debt.

GAressune, Hi, Jan. 16.—The larze number of persons in this city who have devoted con- siderable timo to scientific {nvestigations are soniewhat swakencd and {nterested over the purchase from Prof, H, T. Woodman, the noted geologist, by the friends of Lombard University, of a large, various, and extraordinary collection af corals, shclls, fosslls, minerals, and other weological specimens. This collection {8 to be added to tho cabinet of the University. The cabinet-rooms have been rofltted ond enlarged for this uew additfon for scvoral days. This collection has been on exhibition, and, after having been critically inspected by the Icading professional, educational, and scientiflc men of the uity, i pronounced by all as one of the fuest and largest collections of geological specimens in tho Weat, and it will be safe to say that Lombard has now the mnost valued aud extensive cubinet of any fastitution of learning in the Northwest. ‘Too much pralsa cannot ba bestowed upon Prof, J, V. tand. fah, une of the Faculty of the Untversity, and well known in cducational circles throughout the United States, for his personal efforts fo awakening an interest in the matter on the part of the purchasing friends, 'Tho Universalist Woman's Assoclation of Iitinols and the Ladios® Social Circle or the First Universalist Soclety of this city contributed largely, . BLMER BALDWIN, of Farm Ridge, made a fow remarke,in which he urged the sustaining of the canal, and also the making of efforts to sccure the ship caval, but rambling taik, be said, amounted to notbing, nud, for the purposs of getting the matter into definite shepe, he moved the appointment of o committes of nine to prepare resolutious em- bodying s plan of action to be submitted at a subsequent meetiog, Homa one In tho crowd expressed the bopa that no time would be fost. The matterof n ship cannl was certaln to come up, Why not organize now, and get the people of the North- west interested? It would do no good to walt. @, W. ARMSTRONG remarked that If anything was to bs occom- plished efforts must bo directed to a particular point. The improvement of the 1llnois River was the thiug now. The canal would pever float veesels of more then seven feet draft, which could never live on the lakes, Chicago would have to koep it open as a sanitary measure. Mr. Baldwin urged tho adoption of his motfon for a commiltes, favoring s report a week or o lience. Action could not be taken too svon. Several desired an fmmediate report, but this scemed to be regarded as impracticable. Mayor Lynch opposed tho appolntinent of a comumittes, alluding to tho urnyln]i off of the meeting, and suying that it looked as if thero was raflroad influence present to bring about distraction, He waa Interrupted many times, but porsiated in \ BAYING'ALL JF WANTRD TO, having tho vaat mnjorllf of tho audience with him, 'Cho people, he sald, should retain ther hold of what they hed. 1lo arguod that the constitutional provision vrohibiting the uppro- printion of money for the malntenance of ‘the canal wouldn't hold water, since it causod a vio- Iutlon of tho agreement with tho General Gov- ernment, which granted caunl lauds on the presa condition that the canal shonld forever remain free to the United States, It was fm- pertinent sad ridiculous for a leaser power to preause to sunul that contract, ‘Clic canul was about to be obliterated by tho rultroads, and the action uf the people was hecessary to counteract the cfforts to that end. There wasainple power in the Logislature to prevent the ratiroads from discriminating agalnat the canal, 4.
