We donot, however, apprehend that itis any innate or inherent defect in our organic law, that bas of itself produced the shocking state of things in Congress, of which we have lately frequently spoken. We are disposed to think thatit has been produced rather by an injudicious selection of public servants by the people—men who are lost to all patriotism, and who would pre- fer “to rule in hell than serve in heaven ”. We donot believe that our organic law is rad cally defective in any respect, but, on the contra- ry; wo believe that itis fully capable of answering every carriage drove, deposited their company, and then passed away by another way to the Boulevards.

Huntington. that the ac- cused was in bis employ in February, 1846, and con. tinued so until the middle of last March, when he left; and upon examining the books of the concern, it was discovered that Finch had eold a bill of dry goods, valued at $44, onthe 13th of February last, sold goods amounting to $40, and charged them toa Mr. J. Potter; also a bill of goods for $70, end another for $60, both of which were churged on the books as above On the 24th of February, Finch sold @ bill of goods, vaiued at $74, and charged them te a Mrs Chapman, amounting in all to over $400. It has subsequently been ascertained, thit the above named persons did not purchase goods ax char other—the field of battle presenting next morning France, who form coteries among themselves, and ed to them, the fulse entries heviog been made by f Fine whom he might extract a few dollars io the usual way; ho had no sooner h erful grasp.

This ts what we all aro apparoat'y | seeking. The solution of this question, calmly and da- |-passionstely, ia of a0 much importance to each citize: that we should throw aside all prejudice, and look t! | matter full in the face. Two rival routes are presented to the public—tho | Hudson river road, and the Harlem road—and it must be confessed, the advocates of either routo urge their elaims and advantages with great skill; but in the meantime, our city has the advantage of neither o# a line of travel to Albany. What ere the facts set before us? The Hudson river road claims the best route, easy curvature, and light grades—indeed, for all practical purposes, you tay sey the whole road is level; and the company, under the charge of one of our most expe- rienced engineers, promise to lay down,tho best possi ble rail. Let us suppose all this to be \so—nothing has yet been done—and there remain to be built on this route the whole distance—say 169 mi | The other route, the Harlem road, saya, and we sup pose with equal truth, that their road has a good route, easy curvature, and no grade exceeding thirty-five feet, against eighty-four feet on tho Boston sailroad; that they have their cara now running over forty-two miles of | road; that they have twelve miles more floished, and | ready for loying the rails—making in all fifty-four miles, which can be open to the public by May next; that in the course of the present year they can connect conve- niently withthe Housatonic Railroad, and thu furnish to our city a dirsct railroad line, com; Albany, and thence to the great Wert; and thet they will still go on prosecuting their work, and furnish to us an independent and complete route to that city at an early day. ‘These we believe to be all that is claimed by either ¢f the parties. Woe do not say whet each sets forth egainst his rival. Even they mey be true; that js aot our bust- ness. We wish simply to ask, taking for granted ell that each party claims, to which ofthese companies may the public look for an answer te our query? Mow are our citizers to have the advantege of a continuous rail- road to Albany at the earliost period, and with the least expense? The annual report of the Belgian Minister of Public ‘Works, in relation to the railway trafic for 1845, exhibits many very curious, important and interesting results, and is well worth a careful perusal by every one enge- ged in these works. It will be seen that there has been, within the past five years, en inorease of about one hun- dred per cent in the gross income, while the increase in the working expenses bas only been about fifty per cent, The receipts per league rince 1841, have increased twen- ty por cent, while the expenses per league have deoress. ed about seventeen per cent. The profit per league since 1841, has increased one hundred and twenty five pee cont. ‘Trarric on tHe Barern Ratwars, | It appears from the annual report of M di minister of the public works, that daring 11 ‘ 063 O@f.
