From some statistics of mortality publishe

deaths among the free black population of thy
city during the last year were about one in thii

eight.
Here is a lesson for the abolitionists, if foci
could teach them wisdom. The number of death
among these two classes of our black populatioi
in the same community, is a very accurate inde
to their comparative state of comfort and happ

and whito population was nearly the same.

' ThoXondon Public Xedgcr says that it is in
contemplation to form a canal "between Liverpool

road. " Tliis undertaking owes its origin (it is
said) to the unprecedented success, an point ot
, despatch and cheapness, of tii?y^ht passenger
, boats on the Scotch canals, between .Paisley,
Glasgow and Edinburgh, and the invention of a
new apparatus for passing light bpats rapidly up
and down the ascents and descents of canals
without loss of time or expenditure of water."
It is now found that light iron boats carrying
from 100 to 150 passengers can be conveyed on
canals by two horses at thorate of 10 or 12 miles
per hour. It is estimated that travellers can be
carried by canal, from one towjx to the other, a
distance of thirty-two miles, at from 17 to 20
pence ^ or considerably less than half a dollar.

reported at length in favor of appropriating

The proposed appropriations toward the

that the city of Baltimore, by an almost

subset ibed 3,090,000 of dollars to the
