For THE WHIG.

I have just read, in the Wing, the speech of
Mr.. Clay ON Internal Improvement, which is
the only one I have yet seen on the subject
Should this question be decided on argument
and not on interest, entertain no fear for the
triumph of the old Virginia principles, if Mr..
Us combination IS the most serious they have to
encounter. He is right, when he says, that it
ID no argument against the truth ola conclusion,
that different minds arrive at it by different
steps; and this relieves me from the necessity of
defending weak part of the Presidents arcu-
ment upon the subject, through three columns
ofmasterly exposure, The Acknowledged doc
trines of 1913 that Congress have no powers but
such as are expressly granted, or fairly deduct
bic from those so granted and that in doubtful
cases it is better to limit than to extend the con-
struction of the constitution, are the only wca-
pons L wish to use on this OCCASION and with
these had rather attack Mr.. Clay's positions
than defend Mr.. Monroe's. For, it is not in
cumbent on us to prove that the constitution
does not grant a particular power; but on them
to prove that the power is expressly granted
To begin with C's first position, he would derive
this power from the authority given to Congress
" to establish Post Offices and Post Roads, and
he wastes many well ordered words and some
Dictionary reading to prove, what have never
doubted, that establish does not mean adyopf,
and that 1T does mean to fir, to make firm to
bN'td he proves too, what am just as ready to
admit, that Congress may decide to use any
road already made, or to make a new one but
there he stops, and does not tell us for what
purpose these roads are to be nllopted or esinb-
t,si,ed; yet the constitution does not stop there
IT tells us for what purpose these roads are to be
made, they are to be post roads, roads for the
transportation of the mail, and for nothing else.
Are these the roads which Mr.. G.. and the
friends of Internal Improvement are so DESTROYS
to establish MOI They are already establish
ed, and the mail is now conveyed with reasona-
BILE facility from one extremity of the u. States
to the other. True indeed, not with so much
facility as on the turnpilIes of England, but Mr..
G. himself, acknowledges that we are vet
young nation, and that 10000, miles are not to
be tunpiked in hurry. Where then will he
the most populous, wealthy and commercial
states, for they have the deepest interest in the
safe and rapid transportation of the mail, and
have the fairsst claim since they pay most to the
support Of the P. o. establishment. But the
roads in these states are sufficiently good-true,
and when other states shall have become equal
ly populous, and shall have expended equal
sums on the improvement of their roads, they
will be entitled to- and will enjoy equal facilities
OF communication. But they do not want Post
roads--they want such roads as the constitution
never contemplated, as its trainers never dream
ed of--grand commercial roads, for the trans
portation Of merchandise and produce, roads to
make which the citizens of all the states must

FROM WASHINGTON.

The mail of last night brings important inteli-
gsnce from Washington. The bill to obtain g ne
cessery plans, surveys, estimates &c. for roads and
canals" has passed to third reading, and the
House of Representatives. has taken up in the COM
mttee of the whole, the Bill for an increase of the
.i;F. This bill is expected also to pass at this
session, and the two blows which have so long hung
suspended, over the constitution of the o. States,
and the interests of the Southern States are likely
TO be inflicted at the session of this inauspi-
cious Congress. The ayes and noes on the passage
of the Internal improvement Bill will be found be-
low-Mr. Randolph previously made motion to
postpone the bill Indefinitely, but this motion was
lost by ayes and noes.
