The time has arrived which is important to the
interest Of Delaware, if duly appreciated by her
citizens and course pursued consistent with true
policy 1t may remove much of her difficulties
heretofore experienced Her advantages are ma
nyiin favor Of gaining respectable standing among
her sister states.
Her central situation with generally friendly
soil for improvement and through which an inland
navigation between the other parts OF our country
is now about to be opened; the many advantages
ARISING from facility of intercourse it will afford to
the products Of our soil, as well as our manutac-
turers, though numerous in the detail, and which
II shall omit for brevity's sake, but which may
claim the attention of every rejecting mind, to
contemplate at their leisure.
One thing is certain at the Threshold of the bu-
Isiness. The execution of so laudabe a work will
distribute the circulation of much wealth into our
Estate, which every industrious man may either i'm
mediately or remotely reap benefit from.
Another circumstance is matter of much impor-.

some Legislative acts Of incorporation to establish

this measure must readily be seen by every reflect

As to G monotoEzing," this mode Of establishing
capital and enterprise to the same extent might and
would have in every bearing which could in any
way effect the community.
The simple fact is, that a united strength can
effect an object of greater magnitude, aud which
requires greater powers to perform, than many of
our individuals able perform, or If they are in
possession of the means, they have not the talent
or resolution to encounter the arduous task of ma
king the requisite improvements for carrying the
necessary works.
There is no powers asked nor granted by the le-
gslature for any privilege OF making any thing like

LATEST FROM IRELAND.

The ship John Dickinson, captain Baush, ar
rived on Saturday from Belfast.
The papers contain an account OF the execution
on the Slst OF December, of four men at Limerick,
who had been convicted of taking part IN the recent
disturbances. Two Of them confessed, but the TWO
others denied to the last having any participation IN
these transactions, though one OF them admitted
he was secretly sworn twenty years ago, and alsl
eight years back. Another man was logged by
the hangman Carrot Liston, charged with the
murder Of crown witness, had been apprehended
and committed to prison.
The provincial papers from the South OF ireland

the peasantry would soon subside. The Roman

GREAT FRESHET.-The miIdness of the
weather for a few days past has produced great
thaw, which combined with heavy rain, has raised
the streams in this vicinity to an uncommon height
The Brandywine is said to be higher than has been
known for 81 years; the Chain Bridge, and part Of
the mill adjoining the southern abutmen have been
carried away together with number of small
buildings on the margin Of the stream. We have
heard of one life being lost, and it is feared there
are several more The extent Of damage is beyond
conjecture. 1t is rumored that every bridge on the
Brandy wine within 90 miles of this place have been
swept away /; the dam at the Barley mill is gone
how many more the height of the water prevents
our ascertaining. Newport Bridge en- the Christi
anna is carried away; likewise Thomas mill ant

be hoped not distant. In addition to this, it

though we have no reason te apprehcnd that
there viii be any thing like acquiesccnce in
this claim, but on the contrary that it will be

it may not be well to request the particular
attention of our Senators and Representatives

ment for our information. ] view this as the
