ends, and that the testimony taken by the com- mittee is, for the most part, » mass of perjury. The best thing these Congressmen can do is to * burn the evidence they have already accumu- lated and go back to their duties at Washing- ton, leaving the Grand Jury to deal with those who have admitted their connection with elec- tion frauds or who have committed or pro- cured the commission of perjury. Tas “NATURAL AULIANcR” BETWEEN THE Was? anp THe Sovra.—The Mobile Register is chuckling at theddea that our Erie Canal is called a “narrow ditch,” and is otherwise con- temptuously spoken of by such papers as the Chicago Times, Post, Tribune, &c., and ex- ults in large capitals that the “‘natural alliance” (between the West and the South, via the Mississippi) ‘‘is coming at Iast.” Our Southern contemporary {i # little too fast. These Chicago papers are only jealous because New ‘ York is not disposed to encourage the job of the Washington lobby, whereby the national shall be robbed. of twelve million dollars in aid of that stupendous humbug, the Niagara ship caral, As soon as thersilway muddles now prevailing on the main routes between the West and New York are settled Chicago will find an ample outlet at this point for all the produce she has to send across the ocean. At the same time our Southern friends will soon have their hands full in attending to the development of their own resources and to the exportation of their immense surplus products of cotton, sugar and tobacco. A Woman Wao Has Earnep a Vore.— The Detroit Post contains an account of a women who, to ‘‘give the world assurance of a man,” went out West, bought forty acres of land, grubbed ‘out fourteen acres of heavy oak, chopped and split rails, built a house, sowed eight acres of wheat, dug ditches, sup- plied her neighbors with axe helves and splint baskets, besides attending to her domestic “chores,” all with her own hands, in a year anda half. She lives alone, ‘‘keeps her own secrets,” and is regarded as the ‘coming woman.” Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Antoinette Brown, Anna Dickinson and all the rest of the stronz-minded women are expected to make way for her. They. may make speeches, but neither of them, we warrant, can grub her way into the newspapers, nor build a house, nor make axe helves, as this Western dame has. ° Let her vote. , Rartroap Rives 1x Georata.—The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph is calling attention to the proposition for State aid to the Macon and Brunswick Railroad and considering the dangers from such aid and railroad rings gen- erally. This is all right if the Telegraph pro- poses to consider the subjects in their proper spirit, These jobbing schemes are as likely to spring up in the South as anywhere, and the richer the South becomes the more liable are her citizens to be plucked by speoulators and lobby jobbers. It is well to look sharply into these State aid propositions, and as soon as a ring is discovered don’t allow it to spread and become omnipotent, as in Washington and in Albany and in this city, but smash it up at once, - Tag Forore Capira, or THe Usirep Srabes.—The St. Louis Republican is advo- the removal of the capital from Wash- ington tothat city. There id scarcely a city, town or hamlet between New York and the Rocky Mountains that does not claim the game @istinction in the future. Be easy. The present seat of government is coming nearer and nearer to all parts of the country every day by means of the telegraph, railroads, steamships and the independent press. ~ Sprenprip Equiraces.—No country in’ the world can display such beautiful equipages as are seen in our Park every fine day. Their light and airy construction is in remarkable contrast to the heavy, lumbering establish- ments of the Old World. These light and elegant turnouts are peculiar to this country, and, though frail in appearance, are yet so strongly made as to admit of being driven at the highest rate of speed of the trotting horse. Is Jupaz Lyxon Wantep?—The Louisville Journal contains the report of a case where nine men were on trial in that city for outrage, robbery and murder, and out of the nine seven proved alibis, This is what led to the recent hanging affairs in Indiana. Is Judge Lynch wanted in Kentucky? Degrsorives.—If it is true that it takes a great rogue to make a good detective this is fact in favor of the moral character of the detectives of our city. Witness the Rogers ‘case and the hunt for Logan. THE INUNDATION AT ALBANY. A Severe Storm—Breaking Up of the Ice in the Hudsen—Columbia Street Plier Sub- merged—Five Buildings Undermined—Great Destruction to Property—Loss $500,000. ALBANY, Jan. 11, 1869, Asevere storm of rain and hail is raging here. The ice in the river above this city has broken up ‘and the water is rising, threatening an inundation of the pier and Quaay street. A barge and a ‘canal boat loaded with coal were driven out of the basin into the river and will pro. bably be destroyed. No heavy inunda- tion is apprehended, but owing to a remarkably strong current that seta in from the east side of the river north of the city, aad which pours into the basin'in great volume, very serious damage is being done to property on the pter between the east end of the, Oolumbia street bridge and the cut through which passes the Hudson River and Hariem Railroad ferry bohte.
