Isis not extravagant to say that the result, in ten years, of such action in the premises as these bondholders pray, would be to at least double the valao of every acre of land in Maryland, from the District line to the upper terminus of the canal for ten miles back from the work. It would thus increase the aggre- gate wealth of the people of the State in asum far greater than that which she has invested in the canal up to this time ; to say nothing o¢ the almost incalculable value to the business prosperity of our fellow-citizens of the District of Columbia, which such a change would be.

From the first, a promi- nent candidate for Speaker, when he found that he drew off votes, which, if given to others, might add to the probabilities of the election of Speaker, he withdrew his name from the contest. Of his strong anti-slavery sentiments, no one who has watched his course in the House can doubt. Unawed by frowns, he has pursued the course of a freeman, and a true representative of a free constituency.

We judged from that vote that it would pass. by a very tight squeeze; and upon that mistaken ides, we concluded that by the end of the session to- day, an organization of the House would be vouchsafed to the country. The remarks of Mr Boyce, however, proba- bly deterred some southern Democratic mem- bers from voting for it, who would otherwise have done so; while those of Mr H. Marshall of Kentucky, undoubtedly created the impres- sion that if driven to choose between voting for an out-and-out Nebraska- bill man, who is also in all respects a reliable Democrat, on the one hand, and voting so as to enable the Re- publicans to elect Mr. Banks on the other hand, the National Americans would embrace apr pe avors or giye up principles, which e held as sacred, and believed to be based on the welfare of the country, he freely gave up the honors of office, and retired to the ranks. As such he ever will be remem- bered by the American people. Esteemed and honored by his friends and respected by his opponents, he must remain as he is now is, one of ‘‘Ohio favorite gons,’’ nothwithstan ding the numerous efforts, which are now making by those who are unable to appreciate his pa- triotism, to lessen him in public esteem. “Not long ago, these same persons were lauding him to the skies, for his noble stand on the Nebraska question. He stands there still, but cannot think and act with them in all things, and is willing to suffer from such attacks as long as he is confident of being right. We admire the stand he has taken, and belicye that he will be sustained by the ealm and reflecting portion of the commu- nity.” Saxe, entitled ‘“‘ The stiff cold-water man’’— music by 8. P.
