REPORT
ON THE NATIONAL ROAD.
Madison, Indiana, } !
Ja31.lurg 3, 1921. {

SIR: The commissioners, with view
TO furnish the government with such in
formation as they possess at this time, OF
the proposed continuation of the Cum
berland Road, from Wheeling to the
Mississippi, present the following state.
ment:
| To execute the duties assigned tc
them, the commissioners commence
their labors on the Ohio river, and fount
1t necessary to employ several weeks il
the examination Of the hills, elevated
| above six hundred feet above the leve
of the river, and occupying its right
bank. This examination was rendered
, Indispensable on account of the obstacles
necessary to be overcome, as we'll as the
desire the commissioners felt to con-
meet, iipossible, the road proposed to be
laid out west OF the Ohio, with the road
already constructed, and terminating on
the left bank. After which, they COM
menced base line at point Immediate
ly above the mouth OF Indian Wheeling
creek, which terminated on the Missis-
sippi river, short distance below the
mouth of the Illinois river. On this
line aid adjacent to it, as far as circum-
stances would permit, the ground was
carefully examined, and the surface
found more broken and uneven, than,
from report, they had anticipated; but,
presenting, in their opinion, no insupcr-
able obstacles to the location of good
road, except about thirty-fye miles, adj
joining, and west OF, White river, in the
state OF In lana, which presented sur
face cut up and deformed by numerous
ravines and gullies, many of which were
OF great depth and steepness, and seem
ed to forbid any rational hope OF making
road on the direction proposed, at "a
reasonable expense, which, in their OPT
mons, from the information they have
been able to collect, could best be avoid
ed by location few miles further
north.
On the 5th of December, the party ar
rived on the bank ofthe Mississippi, hav-
ing travelled, for many days, through
snow at least twelve inches deep. They
then proceeded to take the meanders OF
that stream, the situation and bearing of
its islands, and the best means of ap-
preaching it from the highlands on its
lett bank. In this they discovered but
little difficulty. The hills, or what are
called bluffs, being frequently broken by
small streams falling into the river, af-
ford several practicable approaches to it,
several of which can be occupied with
out difficulty, and favorable ground for
that purposes found about five miles
above the mouth of the Missouri river,

slaves shall ever be suffered or allowed,
except upon the perfectly ascertained
consent oil such slaves, to be colonized in
Africa: ind provided also, That, where
ever such exchanges are, or shall be
made, no separation of husband and wife,
or parent and child, shall be permitted
contrary to their we'll ascertained con-
sent.
Mr.. Clark, of New York, moved to
lay the resolution on the table, which was
decided in the affirmative, &c to SIS.
Mr.. Clark, of Newly York, submitted
the following motion, accompanying it
with some remarks in support of it;
Rescued by The Senate and House
Of Representatives Of the United States
Of America, in Congress assembled,
That Missouri shall be admitted into the
Union on an equal footing with the
original states in all respects whatso-
ever on the first Monday in December
next: Provided, That, Missouri shall
have expunged from her Constitution the
following clause, to-wit: I" 1t shall be
the duty of the Legislature as soon as
may be, to pass laws to prevent negroes
and mulattoes from coming to or settling
in this state, under any pretext what
ever" And that on said day, certified
copies of said Constitution, so amended
shall be delivered to the President of the
Senate and Speaker of the House Of Re-
representatives. of the United States.
On the question to proceed to the
consideration ofthis resolution it was de-
cided in the affirmative, by vote of 60
to 46.
Mr.. CLARK, not desiring the resolution
to be acted on to-day, moved to lay it on
the table: and the motion was agreed
to, ayes rs.
The Speaker then announced the I'M
finished business of yesterday, being Mr..
Randoihh's resolutions respecting the
legality of the electoral votes. And on
the question, will the House now pro-
coed to the consideration of these resolu-
tons? 1t was decided in the negative,
by Majority of about 80 votes.
Friday, February l6.
In ealing over the states Tor the re-
ception of petitions, when petitions were
called for from tennessee
Mr.. Jones, Of Tennessee, rose and
said that from the commencement Of the
session, he had discovered that the pre-
siding officer of the house had in his call
for petitions from the states uniformly
called for petitions from {" the Delegate
from Missouri when, in his opinion,
there was no such parsonage in this
house, and therefore moved a disCon-
| tinuence Of such call.
Mr.. Sneaker declared such a motion
out of order at this time and MIR. Jones
reluctantly gave way, apparently with an
intention to renew the proposition when
it should be in order.

80 The scattering votes were as fol-
lows: for President in New-Hampshire,
there was for John Quincy Adams, one
vote. For Vice-President, there was, in
New-Hampshire, for Richard Rush, one
vote; in Massachusetts, for Richard
Stockton, eight votes; in Delaware, for
Daniel Rodney four votes: in Maryland,
for Robert Goodloe Harper one vote.

So the Yeas had it; and
The House adjourned.

Thursday, February Is.
Mr.. Meigs, of New York, rose for the
purpose OF calling the attention of the
House to certain resolutions which he
had the honor of submitting to its con-
slderation at the last session Of Congress.
These resolutions related to the sub
ject of slavery. He had, he said, some
what modified the resolutions offered at
the last session, and would now read
them to the House before he proceeded
further to explain his views in relation
to them.
Whereas slavery in the United States
is an evil acknowledged to be of great
and increasing magnitude and which
merits the greatest efforts of this nation
| to remedy; therefore
Resolved, That q committee be ap-
pointed to inquire into the expcdiency of
devoting 50O,oO0,Ooo acres of public
lands next west of the Mississippi as
fund for the purpose of, in the first place,
employing naval force, competent to
the humiliation of the slave trade. Sc
condly, the gradual emancipation Of
slaves, by voluntary exchange Of the
lands for them; and, lastly, colonizin,
such ,mancipated slaves in such way as
may le conducive to their happiness in
their original country, Africa: Pro-
v'aed, That no exchange OF lands for

We are informed that this interesting

Of four companies of about Fifty rank and

be located at South-Boston, an admira-

Ntoytunate Occurrence.

A man BY the name of Miller, was
drowned in the North River, last week,
in attempting TO swim across it, near
Fort-Miller Bridge. The circumstan-
ces which led to this unhappy event, we
understand to be these -
That Mr. Mixer applied to the toll
gatherer for liberty to pass the bridge,
and offered to pay one cent, alleging,
at the same time, it was all the money
ne had. Bot the bridge tender, true to
his employer, refused to let Miller pass
without another cent-two cents being
the amount Of toll, chargeabIe by law.
Whereupon, the unfortunate man be-
took himself to natures bridge, and
swan about half way across it, when
they beheld him g sink, to rise no
more" Sandy HILL Times.

COE.WT Felt


A man called at my house on Friday,
the Esd ult. stating that his name was
Hartwell, that he was Professor in
the College of William and Mary, in
Virginia-that he also was preacher
of the gospel, to the students of that
institution. He stayed over the Sab
bath, and so adroit was he in deceiying,
that he was permitted to preach part
of the day. He went away on Monday
morning, under pretence of viewing
pond in the vicinity, and has not been
heard of, only that he was steering
toward Connecticut.
1t has since been ascertained that a
few days before he came to this town,
he called his name Charles Kirk Will
liams, but had no pretence of being a
preacher, and had in all cases abscond-
ed, without paying his bills. He is about
thirty-five years of age, dark complex
ion,. bushy hair, and poorly clad. This
information is given, that the publick
may be on their guard against the de-
ceiyer. JOSEPH WILTON.
