cumcn.s, fha. one hundred and eighty
nine thousand dollars have lately been
expended in public improvements, be-
sides one hundred thousand dollars tor
free schools. In the state OF Tennessee,
the legislature has unanimously appro-
priated five hundred thousand dollars Tor
the purpose of improving the navigation
of the rivers in that state.
Public examples need not, at present,
be farther traced:
The national objects, which, in the
opinion of the committee, claim the ilrst
attention of government, are
/. The great line of canals, from the
harbor of Boston to the south, along the
Atlantic sea-coast.
Q. A road from the city OF Washington
to that of New Orleans.
8. Canals to connect the waters OF the
Ohio above, with those below, the falls,
at Louisville; Lake Erie with the Ohio
river; and the tide waters of the Poto-
mac, with the same stream at Cumber-
land.
a. Communications between the Sus-
quebanna and the rivers Seneca and
Genesee which empty into Lake Ontario.
S. Communications between the Ten
nessee and Savannah, and between the
Tennessee, Albania, and Tombeckbee
rivers.
For the more particular information,
relating to those objects, and for their
magnitude, and the many and high adyan-
tages which they would produce to the
Union, either in times Of war or peace,
the House are referred to the abovereport
oil the Secretary CT the Treasury, and to
the very interesting and convincing re-
port Of the Secretary of War, dated ia
nuary 9TH, 1919, which reports the com
mittee beg may be annexed to their pre-
sent report AS to some of the objects
mentioned, or parts Of them, it will be
important, previous to the commence
ment of any general system, to form the
basis of it upon the best Information that
can be obtained by scientific men; the
committee, therefore beg leave to report
bill, entitled Sc An act toprocure the
necessary surveys, plans, and estimates,
on the subject otroads and canals"
The committee viii make separate re-
ports on the subject of the Chesapeake
and Delaware canals, and the other OBJ
lects referred to them.

And every thing in short!

FLOGGING.
When parsons meet they have their jokes
And jibes, somewhat like other folks
And where's the harm, if now and then
They do so, as they are but men
Once at Association meeting,
Where several met for friendly greeting,
And moderate drinking, smoking, eating
One question they discussed was, "whether
'Twere best that Hogging altogether
In schools and families should stop,
Or be as hitherto kept up"
One of the reverends was inclin'd
To think the modern march of mind
Was such, that children might be led
To school, to labor, or TO bed,
AS easily as to be fed.
The other thought with Solomon,
To take a rod and lay it on
Is often useful for son.
The former during his long plea,
Brought in himself, and said that he
In his whole life was whipt but once,
And that by pedantic Ounce,
In childhood or in earliest youth,
For nothing else than telling truth.
"That proves, 'quoth t'other, "what say !;
AS clear as preaching or as day,
That logging has great influence
You know you've never done 50 since"

SELE TED POETRY,

From The Charleston Courier.
THE PIRATE LOVER.
THOU hast gone from thy lover,
Thou lord of the sea
The illusion is over,
That bound me to thee,
] cannot regret thee,
Though dearest thou vert,
Nor can forget thee,
Thou lord of my heart
! lov'd thee too deeply,
To hate thee and live:
l am blind to the brightest,
My country can give;
But cannot behold thee
In plumber and gore,
And thy MrNNA can fold thee
In fondness no more.
Far over the billow
Thy black vessel rides,
The wave is thy pillow,
Thy path way the tides;
Thy cannon are pointed,
The red flag on high,
Thy crew are undaunted,
But yet thou must die.
/ thought thou vert brave,
AS the sea kings oil old
But thy heart is slave,
And vassal to gold:
My faith can be plighted
To none but the free
Thy low heart has bIighted
My found hopes in thee
] will not upbraid thee;
leave thee to bear
The shame, thou hast made thee
Its danger and care:
AS thy banner is streaming,
Far over the sea,
o! my fond heart is dreaming,
And breaking for thee.
My heart thou hast broken,
Thou lord of the wave
Thou hast left me a token
To rest in my grave
Though false, mean and cruel
Thou still must be dear,
And thy name, like jewel,
BE TREASURED up here.
