w ARLINGTON, sept. ZUs
Lieut.. Wearer Of the Navy, arrived in this city
on Friday last, from the Pa ihc, though not imme-
diately from ou squadron in that SEA. He left Lii
ma about the 25th of June, shortly before which
battle took place between The Royslists and diyi-
sion of San Martins army, in which the latter were
decisive'y beaten, and nearly destroyed. No other
event OF Importance had recently occurred.
Lieut. Weaver came over land from the Pacific
20 the Atlantic, across the Isthmus of Panama,
which has become an interesting country irom the
possibility OF an attempt, some time or other, being
made to connect the two great oceans at that point,
it the nature oil the intervening land be found to adj
NIT the practicability of such work. Lieut.. w.
represents the country, the route which he came,
as generally low and fiat and such an one, we
should presume, as would render an inter oceanic
communication, by canal, between the rivers which
tall into each sea, work neither very difficult
expensive. We did not see Lieut.. w. ourselves,
during his stay in town. or our inquiries would have
enabled Us to give more particular description Of
the Isthmus. Its general character, however, may
be understood from the above, and from his denomi-
mating it as throughout an ague and fever country
of which hehad good evidence, being detained some
time on that road by the sickness.--.Nat. Int.
There must be some great mistake in this, either
with Lieut.. w. or the editors of the lnteHigencer.
All the accounts we have ever read, or heard from
the lips of travellers who have taken the ordinary
route across this celebrated neck Of land that con-
meets the two sections of America together, represent
it as chain of mountains, hanked by lofty hills,
with salubrious climate and robust population
hence may reasonably infer, that it is the lasr
place on earth that would be denominaed through
ont .terer and agne country There is, however,
sickness very prevalent with strangers losing
the Andes, which generally seizes the traveller
when he reaches a certain elevation, called the
mountain ferer; but it is entirely of different
plexion from what is commonly understood to be-
long TO the agae and fecer. We merely mention
these facts to prevent the circulation of what ap-
pears to us gross error, in our newspapers.

.FORTTFTC.4gYO.NS

We have the satisfaction this day to lay be-
fore our readers an interesting Message from
the President upon the subject of the Forii-
fcations on Dauphine Island and Mobile
Point" 1t seems that Congress at their last
session suspended the appropriation for the
works at Dauphine Island, upon some doubts
of the propriety of that position. The Presi-
dent had these works re-examined (; and now
comes forward to state his confidence in them.
But he does not stop here-he goes on to
sketch some excellent views offortiiications in
Seneral-to point to the calamities of the late
war, and to draw from them the most earnest
recommendations FOR prosecuting the system
of defence
1t is hoped, that the appeal will be felt as if
deserves.-The impression made by the war
is already weakened The lesson we drew
from it was, that lin peace it was necessary
to prepare for war."-Hence the general cry
was, that we should have a respectable and
weii-organzed army-that the military school
should be maintained with sp;rit-that un.
common pains should be taken in Jisciplinnc
the militia, and the undisIutcd control over
the men placed in the hands Of the general
SoTernmcnt-that arms & ammunition should
he pS0vided--the navy Increased by ships of
the llnc as well as steam frigales- that for
tiicalions al every important and accessible
point, particularly IN the Chesapeake and at
New Orleans, should be most zcalousy erect
ed. We have certainly proftted by this les
son, to certain eXtent-and extended our
system Of defence. But we are apprehcn-
sive, that the army has been too much cut
down-that the navy has not been prosecuted
with sufficient sprit.-We are astonshed at
the various blows which have been aimed AT
West POint-and regret that the system Of
Qualifications has not been pushed with great
or activity. II is true, that the state of the
Treasury has been inauspcous to such enter
prlses-the internal taxes have been repealed
and perhaps inconsderately -but with the
President we believe that sound policy re-
quircs tvs to go on and that any burthens.
which might be found necessary for the com.
pletiOn of this system, would be called for,
rather than complained of by OUT fellow-citi-
zcns."
hope was entertained, that without
a new lean or new tax, money enough
might have been saved, by curtailing other
unnecessary expenses, or calling in the ar
rcars due, to carry on this system-but il
this should be found impraciicablc, if with
all the Economy we could exert, orr resources
should br still found deficient, what COM
parison is there between the advantages OF
such an expenditure, and the Inconvenience of
incurriGg loan Of half a million or million
OF dollarsF The debt is easily paid Int the
benefits Of Notifications would be incalculabIe.
