raised from the drawing OF the two pre,icr

consequently lessening the hurthens of tie

lie buildings have hitherto cost tie nation.
he Canal is so far completed that the
heavy materials for building tie Capitol are
now brought in boats, and landed within

10 the nation many Mousand dollars, and
when completed the advantages derived fcn
1t will be lncalculable, not only 10 the clI,,
