FRIDAY MOKNINQ.MARCH 11 A BUsapprehenaion. e were mistaken in the supposition that Mr. Blythe's bin, authorizing the formation "of companies to lease and manage portions of the canal, was defeated in the SenateJ "We learn that it passed both Houses and was approved by the Governor. ; It is substantially the bill prepared by the Committee appointed by a public meeting in this city, and amended by Mr. Blythe, by whose efforts it was carried through. It provides, as we understand, for the organization of companies to lease and manage such portions of the . canal as may . be released or transferred to them by the bondholders and canal Trustees. It confers no special au thority upon the bondholder to relinquish. lease, or transfer the canal, as it presumes this right is already possessed by them, as owners in fee simple of the work. They have the legal right in the opinion of lawyers to transfer the work subject to the conditions and stipulations under which they hold it from the State. If this be a correct view of the case, we can accomplish all we desire with Mr. Blythe's bill, if the Trustees are disposed to make a lease for such a period and upon terms tnat win ai- ' ford sufficient inducements for a private association to take charge of it. Mr. Dowling is now in New York in conference with Mr. Butler on the subject, and on his return, we shall learn the determination of the Trustees." No doubt is entertained that they will lease the Southern section, from Newberry to Evansville ; and it will be well that the preliminary steps for the organization of a company should be at once taken for if the canal is to pass into new hands, there 13 no time to be lost in preparing it for he spring and summer trade. i is a raatterhaving an important bearing upon the prosperity of Evansville, and directly affecting the interest of every one of its citizens. Each one should calculate, the value of tlfS beneGU to him tf preserving it navigable and, be willing to contribute a part, at least, of these benefits to preserve it. Dilapidated as it is, and under its present inal-administration, it is the avenue of nearly a fifth of our trade. The closing of the canal would reduce the value of all roal estate in this city more than twenty-five per cent. We do nut Lelieve the landholders will ever totally abandon the canal, nor part with it in fee to any parties. But our fears .have been aud are that they will hold on to it and allow it to remain in a decaying and dilapidated condition, useless to the present generation, as a basis ef future plans, with thpir franchises intact, in the new era- that is dawning upon canal navigation. To realize the promises of the future, we have desired to see a strong local company gain possession of the work, who would be among the first to adopt the new theories ot canal navigation, and secure their earliest benefits upon bur own city. The enlargement of the New York canals and the introduction of steam navigation upon them has wrought an entire revolution in the theory and plans of canals. They are about to resume, in the opinion of the commercial world, their former preeminent importance as channels of trade ; instead of being ditches, they are to become navigable rivers. Steam vessels are to leave Chicago, Detroit, Toledo, and Cleveland, and navigating the stormy lakes, pass on through the canal, . without breaking bulk, to New York, and perhaps coast along the shore to the marts of New England. If this be accomplished at the North, how Ion will it be before the Bteamers on the Ohio may enter an enlarged canal from here d to the Lake3 and join the fleet from the Lakes to New York ? An expenditure of 00 or 75 per cent upon the original cost of the old canals, is found, by the New York experiment, to enlarge thpir cnuacitv three and five fold. Instead f- - r of boats, with cargoes of 50 and 75 tons, they can pass boats of 200 and 300 tons, propelled by steam at half the cost, and double the speed of the old mode of navigation. Our canal is capable of enlnrge ineHt aud improvement as well as the New York work and at a less comparative cest; aud it may be made the basis of what will become, in the progress of another genera tion, one of the most important lines of ar tificial water communication in the couutry, the avenue of the bulky commerce between the Ohio and the Lukes, with this city for its Southern depot. The franchises that are to control such a trade are too valuable to be relinquished for any temporary sacrifices ; . or if in folly they are to be given up, a sagacious and enterprising community will make a strenuous effort to secure them for itself. : Post Master General. The Hon. Aaron Vail Brown was a native of Brunswick county, Ya. He was educated at Chapel Hill University, North Carolina,, and choosing the profession of law, "settled,; not; long after, at Nashville, Tennessee. He was for some time a partner of the late President Polk, and for many years a member of the Tennessee Legislature. . From 1839 to 1845, he was a Representative to Cougress. In the latter year he was elected Governor of Tennessee." 'lie was subsequently an active politician, and reported the Democratic National Platform, at Baltimore, iu 1852. He was appointed Post-master General by Mr. Buchanan in 1857. At the time of his death he was in his sixty-fourth year, having been born August 15, J 795. -, Admirable Mail Areaxckuknts. Yesterday, the 10th of March, we received letters and papers from Cannelton, Perry cunty, dated and mailed on. the 19th of February, having made the distance of sixty miles in eighteen days, "being a Speed of more than three miles a day.

Benjamin's Servthe to Slldell. p-More than a year apj it was insinuated in the New Orleans Delta, that Senator Ben

jamin had smuggled, an act through Con gress by which - he secured to Senator Slidell, his patron, and by whose influence he i has just beeen re-elected to the Senate a tract of land known in Louisiana as the Houmas Grant worth from a'quarter to half a -million -of dollars. - This - tract" of ' land has more than five hundred families 0n it, who have settled it under various sup posed legal titles. Under the . fraudulent act procured by Slidell and Benjamin, these men are to be ousted. They now come forward with their protest and expose the rascality. It is not strange that the Brights, Slidells, and Benjamins, become millionaires in the public services on salaries that do not pay . one-third their . household bills, when such iniquities as these here exposed, prevail. - I The inhabitant of the Iloumas tract say, that a patent to this tract was granted in 1844 to certain parties who made a claim, under it; suit was brought, and in 1856 the United States Circuit Court of Louisiana declared the patent invalid. Under thi3 decision, and on former titles, a population of five hundred families have entered upon the tract, some of whom have been there forty years. By patient toil they have im proved the face of the country, having opened fine farms, and surrounded themselves with comfortable homes and valuable pos sessions. To the surprise of these honest settlers, an act wa3 passed last year confirming the patent that had been declared valid by the U. S. Court. The arts by which its passage was secured by Senator Benjamin, is thus stated : The confirmation was part of an act entitled " An act to provide for the location of certain private land claims in the State of Missouri, and for other purposes." 1 be original of this act was one introduced by Senator Geyer, of Missouri, and was con fined in it3 operation to Missouri.- . t his act afterwards fell into the hands of Senator Benjamin, chairman of the Committee on Private Land Claims, who added another section to it confirming the Houmas grant. They allege that the nature and object of the act thus amended, was not understood by Congress ; and that their immediate representative, the moment he discovered its passage, " took action to obviate its. effects." They charge also, that Air. blideli had a pecuniary interest in the confirmation, he hav ing, some years since, purchased under the Iloumas claimants. : These representations, which csn In re lied on, present a strong case ot improvident, not to say tricky and stealthy legisla tion, such as in its consequences is seldom paralleled. The act is described 11 ruinous to the great body of industrious aud thrifty settlers, who went upon the land in the con fidence that the United States would never recognize the validity of this grant.- If they describe its consequences accurately, the terrible calamity it threatens can never fall upon so many and such victims without producing scenes almost as much to be deplored as the act itself, and which ought to consign its authors to eternal infamy. Constitutional Convention. We are indebted for the following sum mary of the law for calling a Constitutional Convention, to the State Sentinel, to which we have been under obligation for the full est and best reports of the proceedings of the Legislature, during its recent session : The " act to provide for taking the sense of the qualified voters of this State on calling a Convention to alter, amend or revise the constitution of the State" contains the following provisions : Every qualified voter in tue btate may, if he chooses, at the annual election in Oc tober next, vote for or against the calling of a Convention for the foregoing named purposes; I The inspectors ot election in the several places of voting shall propose to each veter presenting a ballot, the question : "Are you in favor of a Convention?" and the affirmative or negative answers are to lie duly recorded ; The number of votes given for or against the propositions are to be certified by the judges and inspectors of elections to the Clerks ot the Circuit dourt in the same manner as the votes given for State and county officers ; and by them certified to the Secretary of State, and by him to the Governor ; The slierift'sof the various counties to give six weeks notice that a poll will be opened for the purpose named ; A majority of the people voting at said election, shall vote iu favor of the Convention, the Governor to make proclamation that delegates will be elected by persons qualified to vote for members of the General Assembly at an election to be held on the first Monday of April, A. D. 1860 ; The Convention to consist of one hun dred delegates to be apportioned among the several comities as members of the House of Representatives in the preseut General .As.sem.14y, who are to be elected in the same manner as required for members of the Legislature ; The Convention to assemble at the State Capitol, on the second Tuesday of May, A. D. 1860, and the members are to enjoy the same privileges as members of the General Assembly ; to receive S3 per day compensation while actually sitting as members of said Convention, aud to be allowed the same privileges as members of the Legislature The draught of the amended Constitution to be deposited iu the office of the Secretary of State the Convention to have power to submit one or more amendments to the vote of the pcoplo as distinct propositions ; the Governor to lay said amended Constitution before the General Assembly at its nest meeting thereafter, whose duty it shall be to pass all proper laws to submit the same to the voters of theState for their approval or rejection, and also for organizing the government under the, amended Constitution, provided the same should be ratified by such voters. - ' The netto be in force upon its-publication iu the Sentinel and Journal, and- ample provisions are made for carrying the law into effect if approved by the people. . '' .... A letter from Washington says there is hardly any probability of an extra session of Congress till .October,.' which. 'will be convened then with a view1 to fusing into the regular one. .....i ' No difficulty is anticipated iboul carrying the Post Office service forward till July, and with strict and intelligent .management it may reach the end of September Without much embarrassment.

Tno Bresllii Frandu in Ohio. T AT Committee of the Ohio" Legislature have mada a report, revealing finally a series of, iniquitious practices of Bliss, Bres-lin,-and Gibson three successive "State

Treasurers by, whom theState was robbed of nearly a million of its funds. By the re port it appears that a most careless, irregular, and irresponsible system of accounts were kept through ten years administration of the public finances, which left them onen without any check to the use and conversion of the treasurer and his friends. They were treated more as the private spoils of a clique, than as property for which the Treasurer was responsible. By the books, the committee were unable to determine within some hundreds :' of :' thousands of dol lars." what amount bad been received and wa3 deficient. - They rely chiefly on the ad missions of the defaulters themselves, to es timate the sums, abstracted. The patties who were instigators of the frauds and se cured the fruits of them, are men in " high social position" and some of them ." promi nent politicians." The Committee give an accountjof the system of financial manage ment which led to these frauds, and which has been as prevalent in Indiana as in Ohio, t-j stop which the embezzlement bill passed by the Legislature and vatoed by Gov. Willard. was introduced. The Com mittee says : In Ohio, and we think we may venture to say in many other States, the Treasury was considered, by many, a3 the special and rightful subject of banking depredations not in the way of direct abstractions cr thefts of money, but . as affording facilities to the shrewd within it, and their friends without, to become enriched without incur ring the risk ot los3, or danger ot exposure It was so much additional capital furnished by the people for the use of the chartered few. The practice had obtained: and was publicly known to exist, with but little comment, and without condemnation, and without law to effectually prevent it, that the Treasurers of btate, and city, county, and townships, were depositing moneys in their official keeping, with various banks and bankers, upon which they received in tercst as a perquisite ot their otiices and for which, of course, they never accounted to the Stato, or other authorities ; their de positories, iu the meantime, using the funds thus deposited, lor their purposes, and stipu lating to afford every tacinty to the 1 rcasurers for concealment. Occasionally, the attention of the Legislature would be called to tho subject : but some resolution of en quiry, ill-conceived lor any eneclual purpose of exposure, and misdirected by some par ticipant in the proht in the .Legislature, and therefore easily avoided by those skilled and practiced in these illegal operations, would be the only attempt at investigation. Ilms, year after year, with the perfect knowledge on the part ot the people and the (.eiieral Assembly that such practices existed, both the Treasurer and his depositories continued to enjoy a perfect immunity from legislative enquiry and exposure ; and emboldened bv success, and enriched by these unlawful gains, th .ygrew more "liberal" and more reckless of risks. As evidence of the utter disregard of laws as thev existed at the time of the transaction, Messrs. Sill, Woods, and Bliss, Canal Fund Comissiouers, made large loans of the Sinking Fund to the Little Miami, Cincinnati, Hamilton & Day ton, Cleveland & Columbus, Cleveland & Pittsburg, and the Akron Railroad Compa nies : and still worse, to the Columbu3 In surance Company, which latter loan the General Assembly, in 1856, absolutely legalized thus relieving the State officers from liability for a loan to a bankrupt Insu rance Company, made in the very face of a law forbidding it. But the number of these leeches was not to be decreased; and new plans had been devised, and other snbjects secured to satisfv their demands. All that could be desired had been admirably accomplished in 1845, when under the bank laws new depredator in new forms, and still more ravenous, were created and scattered throughout the State, that they might leed npon County Treasur ers, and enjoy a brief use of the people's money before it reached its final destination, the State Treasury. The County Treasurers, and even Township Treasurers, following the example of those in higher positions, were , soon taught by their adjuncts, their " interest'' in the Treasurer, and with what ease they could " make a little," without incurring any risk. They at once added their opinion and influences to sustain the existing abuses. , 'In locations, where ' no chartered banks were established, still another swarm of more hungry and less scru pulous financiers sprung up the bankers aud brokers with two and three per cent, a month proclivities; and they, Working in primary and ward meetings, and at the elections, nominated, elected, and defeated the man who was " with" or " against" them in their efforts. When an honest Treasurer was found, who would listen to no suggestion.?, and accede to no demands to loan or deposit, he was requested tö permit his friend simply to " assort" his currency, as there might lie a little advantage obtained, even from this handling iu the way - of "exchanges." Thus were all receivers of the public moneys subsidized for the purpose of sustaining these outrages upon the security of the Treasnry, and the fidelity of the officer. ' So intimately blended were the transactions of County Treasurers and small bankers, that in some parts of the State, to the personal knowledge of some of the members of this Commission, upon court-houses were, bankers' signs, and from the very door of the Treasurer's office protruded "Bank;" while within, occupying the same office and owning the safe in partnership with the county, was the banker who loaned the people's money at three per cent, per month, and perhaps "assorted" for the Treasurer. Combined as one man, these interests were formidable at the polls, and in the Legislature; and, in fact, created that . public opinion which seemed to justify the uses of public money for the individual ; benefit of the Treasurers apd their friends. A bank, or a broker'3 office became the County Treasury, the depository of Canal Tolls, and of the receivers of public moneys of all kinds, and a bank became the State Treasury for nearly all purposes of receipt and disbursemeut of the public moneys. Oflicials; were interested in the condition of things jmbHg opinion justified it and the laws did not effectually forbid it. He who predicted that evil would grow oöt of it. was pronounced a - hard-money Visionary extremist, and an "enemy to the business interests of the State. V It is in vain to -deny that public opinion had, for years, permitted and sanctioned this use of public funds, by State Treasurers tuid other receivers, tor their own benefit and advantage. . .Th&law. which prohibited this J perversion of the public money to the per-4 8onalii9esof the Treasurer and his favorites, j existed only as a" dead letter on the statute 1 book.-; Public opiniou had failed to demand that it be put in execution, and hence the Courts and officers, of the law made no attempts to enforce it.

If a public officer be permitted to put up

public money at interest tor his own benefit, he may claim tiie rignt.to use 11. tor tne purposes of speculation in any .other way ; and if the right to use puouc uiuuej u giauicu, or its use permitted, and no rule prescribed limiting or regulating it but the judgment of the Treasurer, the loss consequent upon his errors of judgment cannot constitute crime ; for he makes his judgment, ana not uie mw, the measure of safety, and the public should not be too ready to censure or condemn him.
