city: as il is more or less compressed
now come 10 the point. When this ca
nal is opened, the rush OF water into the
Pacific will be immense, and probably
ear away a passage for itself equal in
magnitude to the Straits oil Gibralt ar=
Il follows, OF course, that all those PLACES
on the Atlantic side of the continent,
from Cape Florida to Porto Csvello,
will ecaim from the Ocean ell banks
that now have 10 feet water thereon and
the effect on our coast, from the Della
ware TO Cope Florida, will be propors
tionably affected; The dangerous shoals
Of Haiteras, Cape Fear, Cape Look
Our, and Cape Roman, will be dry.
The Gulf Stream will be done eways
navigation rendered safe and easy. The
Florida Reef will be stripped Of all its
terrors, and our voyages from the eastern
ports TO Cuba. But these are minor
considerations, to what am now coming
sise,ppi will be vastly improv ed---the
descent OF the mouth being Is fee, more,
will cause the current of The river to cat
away its bed, and leave the banks COM
psrati.ely high. Ii will drain immense
marshes, that are now unproductive and
unhealthy; do away the expense of le-
Vies, and reclaim thousands of acres
from The ocean; and, in fine, make the
states of Mississippi and Louisiana high
and healthy. The effect will be also
great on the climate of Cuba. Coffee
is great staple of commerce in that Isl
land. The coffee tree will not stand
frost. Do away the Gulf Stream, and
there is nothing to soften our northwest
winds that causes severe frost and ice at
| New Orleans.

the United States are likely TO have no
participation in this great work. We,
surely, are far more interested than the
British. ! find that company is formed
in London, soliciting Government pro-
lection, and supported by British capital,
to carry this object into effect. should
not be surprised if our flag was exclud-
ed, unless prompt measures are taken to
ensure fair participation with the Bril-
fish,

on this subject TO you, to be used by you
in any manner you think proper.

EsGLIsH CANAL COMPANY.


The general peace OF Europe, and the
unesa'npioo prosperity vi O,oat D,nain,
give 10 her the opportunity and tho
means OK extending her schemes of use.
.ni Improvement 10 the New World.
| The London papers, from which the &C.
complaining extract is taken, convey tho
important intelligence, that Bill was
about to pass the House of Commons
for Incorporating company, whose OBJ
Ject is to unite the Atlantic and Pacific
| Oceans, by a navigable canal through
the ls,hmus of Costa Rica. We have,
heretofore, had occasion TO notice this
proposed canal, and the lranscendant be-
nehts TO result from its execution, which,
we had INDUCED the hope, would have
been accomplished, either by the Co.
vernment OF Central America, or the in
dlvidual enterprise of the United States.
1t should have been left for the glory of
the New World to open a passage
which, while it would otter much great
er advantages to commerce than the
successful discovery of Vasco de Cana,
would not be so preJudicial TO the inter-
ess of any commercial people, as was
the latter to the Venetjans and Genoese.
Some saler and more convenient route
for navigation to the East, than those by
Capes Horn and Good Hope, has always
been desideratum in commerce. Largo
sums have been expended by the British
and Ru--ian Governments, in prosecu,-
ing the discovery of North West pas.
sage. The eternal ices of the polar re-
gions, the length Of voyage by this
route, and the want of posts and conve-
nient places for supplies and repairs,
would always render its advantages infc-
rinr. The connection of tho Mediterra.
mean with the Red Sea, by canal across
the lsthmus of Suez, would be a navi-
gable route less Objectionable to Euro
pean commerce. But this scheme has
tailed from the days Of A Alexander down
to those OF Napoleon, whether from the
uncivilzed character OF portion Of the
country, or the inability Of its conque-
rors The intelligence and enterprise
OF the present enlightened Pacha may
induce the hope that this noble and i'm.
portan' work, which was the project of
ancient, may become the glory OF mo.
dern Egypt. A navigabls communica-
ton between the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans, through the Isthmus connecting
North with South America, is not a
scheme OF late conception. The Spa
Dish Goverpment, two centuries ago,
was acquainted with its ability in
New-Grenads. The younger Pi'r, who
was assured, from various representa-
ticns made to him, OF the facility with
which canal admitting vessels Of tho
largest description, might be cut across
the Isthmus, fondly dwell on this project
as one of the most important considera-
tons connected with the Independence
Of Spanish America. The Edinburgh

enthusiastic shouts which rung through the
CITY, and from time to time absorbed the
whole attention, all concurred to affect the
mind in an extraordinary degree. Only six
hundred soldiers had entered the city; but
this was explained by report that fifteen
hundred had been dispatched to cut off the
retreat of the Spaniarls. The crowd was
immense; and the city which half an hour
before had appeared deserted by men, was
thronging with people, apparently more
s,,an the houses could hold. The soldiers
were almost borne from their horses by
their embraces, and il WAS with difficulty
they could proceed. They did not intend
to remain within the walls; but urged Oh
perhaps, by the conviction Of their power,
passed through the city, and took the road
to CalIao, in pursuit of their enemies.
When the first excitement had begun to
subside, and the firing Of a few guns was
heard, rumours were soon atioat that the
Spanish troops were entirely cut off. Yet
the Patriots did not return, and no mcsscn-
ger arrived to confirm the report. Num-
5ers Of people proceeded ont otthe city 10
the same direction, and met the most con-
Trajectory statcments.-Ihe road is lined
with buildings and lofty garden walls for a
considerable distance, 50 that It was impos-
sible to see far on any side, A man was
found living speechless by the PATHWAYS
he faint or dead? A little beyond was an-
other with blood flowing fresh and freely
from his clothes--but he was a peasants; and
near him lay another, a adecrepit old man,
dead, with his donkey stretched upon the
Ground under the weight Of burthrn. This
was a chance-shot-bu the patriot uniforms
were soon after seen in the dust; and the
road was soon lined with the corpses Of
those who had 50 sorccently met such an en-
thu,astic welcome. They had been led on
too securcl, and ere they were aware, sur
rounded by the Sp4niards and cut 70 pieces.
The event, however, produced no impor-
tart consequences: Lima has never since
been entered bv an cnemy, aud the iHh lbi-
tants are happily enjoying the liberty aud
the regular government OF which they were
50 long deprived.
