FRANKFORT, (K.) June 6.
CANAL.

We understand that the subscription
for the canal around the falls OF Ohio on
he Indiana side, is rapidly filing up in
ohio and PENNSYLVANIA. The merchants
81 those states entertain an opinion, that
1t will be their interest 10 have the canal
on that side of The river; for what reason
1t is unnecessary to enquire. Whether
Il ey are mistaken or NO, the conseGusn
ces would be equally fatal 10 Louisville.
We are astonished ut the apathy which
prevails on this subject, although as citi-
Leus of Frankfort il is of very little con-
sequence to us on which side the canal is
dug.
Much faalt is found in Cincinnati with
the report of Lodmi Bald,cin, the engi-
neer who has surveyed the falls and the
adjacent country. He recommends ca
nal only sufficient for the passage of keel
boats, stating that bargcs cannot navigate
the river above the falls in times of low
| wafer. II such Il canal was made il would
be necessary, as at present, 20 unlade at
the falls and shift the merchandise from
| the larger boats which navigate below, TO
| the smaller which navigate above.
The Cincinnati people declare this o.
pinon Inconsistent, and saw that barees
can ascend as high as Cincinnati and e.
ven Maysville rs readily as they can nav
igate below the falls. If this be fact
the canal ought at once TO be made suf-
ficicnt for the passage of barges; and no
sci of men should be permitted to entail
lasting Inconvenience on so large a tract
of country for any local or individual in
terests. We hope the canal will be open
ed on the Kentucky side; but if there is
not spirit and liberalty enough in this
state TO do it, let ii be done i'm Indiana,
Louisville will lose her Importance and
Kentucky will suffer much but it will all
he the effects OF our own neglect and fol-
