River Railroad to Castle Garden. Tae injustice of accom- modating one section of the city and denying another is Pointed out. Fit was rgut to make the grants already | of peration, it is urged that there appears no new rea- son for stopping short in other instances, where the ox- pw ‘and practicability of the route can be ascer- ped. To the point that these grants should be sold for the be nefit of the city, the committee say they have not been convinced by apy ents they have beard of the soundness or wisdom of selling legis'ative franchises. Tho ‘object and effect of these roads they understand to be to afiord the people a rapid, convenient and cheap mode of Conveyance. In selling the franchises, those who purchase obtain @ guaranty under which they ix and maintain bigh rates of fare. This, therefore, would only operate as an indirect mode of taxation, fall- ing too, upon the producing and laboring classes, who are the parties chiefly using this mode of coaveyance. ‘The committees main‘ain that the sale of these roads for ‘the benefit of the Corporation would defeat the end of any Teduction in the rates of fare. The free grants and neces- Bary competition ensure low rates of fare. The questi®n, stripped of ol faturon of monopoly, would regulate a ‘competition the rivairy of capitalists wou! down the rates below those now prevailing. The omai- buses began with a rate of twolve cents, and have coma down to and four. The railroads now charging five cents, it is argued, wou'd of their own accord, as grant are multiplies to meet the public requirements and the competition increased, reduce the present rate and carry passengers for shoes conte from the lower ferries to the Central park, and to Harlem for five cents. + The cities of Philadelphia and Boston are cited as hay ing long and obstinately refused to license these city roads; but now that they have experienced their benefits, the committee say that grants are not given by steaith or reluctantly, but openty and liberally, as in obedience to the public welfare and necessities. Under municipal and State ts to omuibus compa- nies, large amounts of capital have been invested in their Tinos, and equitable if not legal rights thus vested. Woen proposed railroads run over omnibus routes, or supersede thom, the committee to share with their proprie- tors the advantages of these grants to the extout of an in- demnification for damages to such proprictors. This con- Bideration the committee say they have regarded in the bills which they have reported, viz: that of the Seventh a (Broadway parallel), Fourteenth street and ave- nue D.

They are of ‘opinion that instead of evacting the proposed bill, or fur- ther considering the various special projects now before the Legislature for railroads in the city of New York, such products are, as above stated, more properly subjects for A general law, and they respectfully suggest the following ‘ag the leading provisions which should be incorporated in such a law:— 1. Similar requirements as to organization, capital, lis bility of stockholders, &c., as are now contained in the generai railroad law. 2. Suitable provisions to prevent injury to persons and Property in the construction of the roads and their opera- ion, 3. Such regulations as to locating the route, &s., a8 afford notice and opportunity for objections, if any exist. + 4. The coosent of the Corporation, and the sale of the franchise under proper supervision, 80 as to create a reve- nue to the city, and thus compensate the Corporation where the fee of the streets ig in them as trustees for the public; nad where the fee is in private owners, subject to the pub. lic easement (if any such case existe), compensation to them for the burden and injury created by the appropria- tion of the street to railroad purposes.

MISCELLANEOUS BILLS BEFORE THE LEGIS- LATURE. ALMANy, March 16, 1859. The Bal in Relation to the Condition of the Canal Depart: ment—The Prohibitory Law—The Old City Charter Excise Law—The Canal Auditor, de. ‘The following are the points of the bills referred to now before the Legisiature:— The following important bill was introduced in tha House thie morning:—An act in relation to the condition of the Canal Department.”’ Section 1. The annual report of the recetpta and payments on account of the canala, and the Canal fund, kept by the Auditor of the Canal Department, heretofore required to be made. bi the Commissioners of the Canal Fund tothe Lagileturs, shall hareafter be made by the said Auditor; and it shall not hereafter be necessary for said Auditor to submit the report referned to in the fourteenth section of the net, chapier 162, of the laws of 1848, to the said Commissioners. Sec. 2 ‘Ibe said Auditor shall from time to time reqnire all persone receiving moneys nr securities. or having the disposi or management of Any property of the State of whicb an account is to be kept in bis office, to render statements thereof io him: ad all'auch persons abail. render such statements, at ‘such times and in sueb form as the Auditor shall require. Sec. 3, The said Auditor shall have power to remove at his pleasnre any collector, weigh master or other or agent appointed by the Canal Board, whore duties relate to the ool- Jection of canai tolla, and w fill the vaeancy occasioned by Auch until the ext meeting of the Canal Board § No greater nunber of weigh masters’ assistanis shall be appointed at ay of the welzh works than the Auditor of the Canal Department ehall certify to be necessary to secure the prompt and speedy weighing and inapection of boats and cargoes navigating the canis of this Ft; and no person shall o1 be appointed agsistant weigh master without the consent said Auditor, This bill, which will undoubtedly be legalized, gives the Auditor of the Canal Department more power, and places more of the people’s money in his hands than any officor of the government was ever invested with, It com- pletely ignores the existence of the Commissioners of the Canal Fund, as under thi there will be no fam er their charge; but al noye collected on the canals, and all the means provided for construction, will be placed in the haads of a political partisan, the 1 creature of a political party; and tor the safety and security of sueh immense fands porsees no adequate security wi Mr. A ton may be above all suepicion, but it may bay very vifferent sort of personage may be appointe tor hefore the act can be repeaied. ‘The respor too much to be placed in aby hands, unleas the porson ia elected by the people and his conduct guaranteed by am.

RUTONNING TO THR OLD CHARTER. Mr. Woodward has introduced a bill providing for the abolishment of all charters of the aity of New York sub- sequent to April 7, 1850, except the act of March 3, 1884 and providing that ali officers shall continue in office until their successors arc olectod. ™ sabe nk The bill reported a: ubstivule in liew of all the pro. Positions to amend the excise laws increases the license fees as follows:—In places with three thousand la tion, $30 to $100; where the population is under ten thon- sand, $50 to $200; whore the population exconds ten thon sand, from $76 to $800.

At every regular annual election a box Is to be provided for bailot marked “license” and “no license,” and at all places where the ‘no license’ vote prevails, ao licenses are to be granted. The bill algo makes provision for simplifying actions ‘under the excise laws. ‘THE CANAL AUDITOR, Pa: ’8 bill defines the dutios of the Canal Aud’ rs to him the duty of receivi ports of re- ceipts and disbursements ot Noe ‘amount of property of toe State held by Parties.

THR LRORLATURE RUGULATENG BTRERTS, ‘Auuany, March 18, 1859, ‘The bill regulating avenues and streets north of 125th strect, was the House this morning. OTHER BILLS BEFORB THE LEGISLATURE. In the Senate Mr. John D. Willard introduced a bill to authorize horse railroads in cities to lay such rails as the authorities of tho cities or towns may sanction, without being subject to the ‘ions of the general law, and to charge hereafter for any distance under two miles a fixed um, not to exceed five cents. Mr. Opdyke, from the Special Comonities reported ir. lyke, from the Special Committee, that they had visited the banks in New York and Brooklyn, and been received wiih uniform courtesy. They first visited the Bank for Savings, the Bowery Savi Bauk, sad the Greenwich, which are the largest in the State, hoiding at the present time about thirty millions on de posit. The unclaimed deposits in these banks since January 1, 1849, of which the depositors or their logal representa tives may not be generally known to be now living, aro us follow 3,614 99 Of this $70,670 39 has remained unclaimed for twenty years aud upward. - ae amount in the Brooklyn Savings Bank is left biank In the report. ‘Two other savings banks in the State, chartered prior to 1849, have about $10,000 unclaimed deposits. Other banks, including smailer banks in New York, ag- gregate about $10,000, This aggregate sum, although less than was supposed, and tiab'e to reduction by claims, the committee believe should be transferred to the State after twenty years, but not for a shorter period. They, therefore, introduce a Dill requiring savings banks on or before the first of July of each year to propare a list of dividends unclaimed for age years or upward, and to publish the same once a week for six months in a newspaper in the city or county, and to charge the expense of publication to the accounts advertised rata. If at the expiration of the six months any such deposits remain unclaimed, they are to be paid, together with their accumulated dividends, into the State treasury. The State is to return the amounts, when legally claimed ,with- out interest. GASLIGHT IN NEW YORK. Mr. James J. Reilly’s bill to authorize the Common Council of New York to contract for lighting the streets with gas, provides they shall contract for all streets and avenues not now under contract with the lowest bidder. Before avy contract is made it becomes the duty of the Street Commissioner to furnish to the Presidents of the New York and Metropolitan Gaslizht Companies a state- ment of the extent and amount of lighting which will be required, and the contract shal! be awarded to and made with the company presenting the lowest proposal. BOHOOL COMMISSIONERS, LNSPECTORS AND TRUSTEES. Mr. Masterson’s bill provides there shall be two com- missioners, three inspectors aud ten trustees of common schools in each Aldermanic district in New York. At each charter clection there shall be elected one commis- sioner, one inspector and two trustees in each Aldermanic district, who shall hold office, respectively, two, three and five years, The commissioners now in office are to con- tinue until the expiration of their terma, INTERESTING FROM NEW MEXICO, The Protection of Slave Property in that Territory, ke, Rey ke, Our Santa Fe Correspondence.

The amount of pro- perty in slaves owned at present by our citizens doos not exceed one hundred thousand dollars, and this consists chiefly in domestic servants, Whether slavory be practi- cable in New Mexico or not time will have to develope. The population of this Territory is increasing rapidly, es- pecially by the emigration of large numbers of families, who select this country for their permanent home. I doubt not but what the census of 1860 will show the num- ber of inhabitants in New Mexico to exceed 100,000 souls. With a little more protection from the federal government we would soon seek admission into the Union as a State, with a policy favorable to Southern rights. Our Legislature has passed some good and wholesome laws, which will cause a considerable change in the work- ings of our local government. The Judiciary branch, es- pecially, has been entirely remodelled. It will adjourn on the 4th of February next. ‘The treaty recently made with the Nayajo Indians is generally believed to be of but short duration, the Indians not being able to comply with its stipulations. But whe- ther they are able or not, they will not comply.

Humanity forbids the one, but 4004 policy and philanthropy command the other.’ Had the govertiment adopted this policy a decennary ago, with one balf of the amount. that eon expended in this Territory in making military expeditions against them each and every one of the wild Indians surrounding us could have been compelled tosettle and cultivate the soil. The lives of numberless inuocent Mexican and American citizens would bave been spared, the depredations upon our properties avoided, our treasury would not be liable for two millions of property stolen from vs by these In- dians, and civilization would now celebrate a triumph crecitable alike to our government and to the century in which we live. From private letters received from El Paso we learn that lately an fneurrection has taken place at Chihuahua, in which the liberals of that city carried the victory, and compelled Zuloaga (a brother of the General and a custom houge officer), with several others, to take their exit. They ‘re now at El Paso. As travelling in Chibuahua and Sonora is very unsafe, our trade with these States has greatly diminished, and goods generally imported from Mexico are unusually high. That part of the President’s Message recommending the establishment of military posts by our government in the vorthern parts of the States aforementioued, has been favorably received here by our Mexican population. Tt is considered as the initiatory step te effect a final annexation of those States. fi Mexicans are daily returning from the Platte river with gold dust, which they excbange here for goods. They report the auriferous deposits there to be considerabiy rich, and yielding a handsome return for working the mines. ‘The jnmigration to that new Ei Dorado is still increasing, Large numbers of Mexicans have been washing gold at the Pacer mioes during this winter, being favored in their work by the heavy snow which has fallen, as the scarcity ( water in summer time obstructs the work. The amount of gold dust which these mines have yielded since October Inst f¢ estimated at $80,000, On the 21st inst.
