Mr.. PRESIDENT,

now under consideration, NOT being view.
; ed as a national object, will not be regard.
ed with the attention it deserves. Hay.
ing some acquaintance with the subject,
aud bang strongly impressed with lis In.
poriance. | deem il duty to communicate
TO the senate the facts which pos sess, and
TO unfold those views of the object pro-.
posed, which have pscsentsd themselves to
my mind, Il shall no, feel il incumben, on

and populous countries, how much more

hPEaeemens IN yosag country where labor
and capital which it is calculated to save,
are so much m re wan,ea.
The. relative position Of the De!aware
ard Chesapeake bays long since awakened
the attention of dist,uguish=d body. as
to the praes'eab,liiy OF apening a wa:er
ccaau.aaiea,iea between them.
In the year 1869, DR.. Fraakliu, Mr..
Rlsyenhouse, Mr., Gilpiu and sr. Hot

ana probable eZp@cce o. opening a eom,
munieaion between thei, waaess. s.'heir
report strongly recommended the project,
as one susceptible Of beiag accomplish
ed, but as work eventually promising an
adequate profit. The want af capital al
that time, the disturbances then arisinp
VITA Great Britain, the occurrence ana
consequences of the war diverted fer 4
long time the public ai,es.ion from this In
teresriug objsct. IS

immense size. But in referring to De Tots

piece Of ordnance which would carry marble
bali Of eleven hundred weight This piece,
cast IN brass IN the reign of Anurath, was

screw where the charge is contained, after
the mariner OF az English pistol. Its breach
fes1ed against massy Stone work; and twas
paced upon tlr,bers, cat and disposed for that
purpose, under a small arch that served as
an emurasure. TO load this formidable piece
