EDWARD c. PINKNEY.

We are sorry to announce the death Of this
gentleman, who expired at his residence in
Baltimore on the llth inst. Mr.. Pinkney
was the son Of the celebrated William Pink
ney, and inherited many of the splendid tai
ents OF his distinguished father. As poet,
he ranked among the first Of the country, and
as political writer, held a very respectable
station. At the time Of his death, he was the
Editor of public newspaper, called the Ma
ryiander, published at Baltimore, and dstin-
gulshed for lis ability, and decided alta chment
to the present Administration. Like most
men of eminent talents, Mr.. Pinkney possess
ed an ardent temperament, the too far indul-
gence Of which, more than once involved him
in unpleasantres of an unhappy nature. and a
few weeks before his demise, led him to Phil
adelphia, to seek personal redress for injuries
done him by a contemporary; where he was ar-
rested, and held to bail. to answer for his de-
pertinent, at the Oyer and Termner term for
next May.
But though easily excited, and too often
uselc,sly irritable, he is represented by those
who knew him best, to have been a man of
amiable disposition, kind, generous and bonc-
VIOLENT. faithful friend. an interesting COM
panion. and an accomplished gentleman
Though not personally acquainted with Mr..
Pinkney, the respect we have ever entertained
for his distinguished talents, has induced us 10
offer these few remarks favorable TO his men,
ory, whilst VIC lament that one who was so
highly gifted by nature, should have so soon
fallen victim TO disease. We learn, that he
had been indisposed for some time, and that
his unpleasant difficulties at Phade plia, pro-
baby contributed to his early demise. His
biography is full of interest, and largely par
takes Of the eccentrcties Of genius. AS
chaste and classical scholar, no had but few
superiors, and his writings always p'rtook Of
a happy and due proportion. of classical al
lusion, without being tainted with pedantry, or
stifiened by the labor of the plodding and con-
ceited undergraduate, or marred by the ver-
bosity and diffusion of the literary coxcomb.
His remains were entombed with those Of his
father, and were followed to the sepulchre by
a multitude Of friends, who wopt for his 100
early departure for the world ofspirits.

INTERNAL IMPROVEMENTS.

Those who have paid any attention TO the
proceedings of Congress, have probably no
ticed that Mr.. Calhoun, has at last defeated
the bill, proposing appropriations for the pro-
melton of Internal Improvements, aad in u
set speech has urged his objections.
Thus it will be seen, that death blow has
been given to the cause of Internal Improve
ments, and that for the present at least, the
people of the United States, are 20 be told, 4,
that they have nothing to expect at the hands
Of the National Government.
There is one part Of Mr.. Calhoun's explain
ton that which relates to the Illinois Canal,
which might be considered proper and good,
had it not been urged at this late period. and
had it any possible bearing on the Cumberland
Road 1t is well known to all that the Cum
berland Road is toll free, and that no state
through which it runs, has ever attempted to
assert that it has right to levy toll taxations
nor is it probable that the states through which
its continuation would run, would attempt to
make any such exactions. So too, with the
Illinois Canal; if that had been accomplished, +,
al the expense Of the nation, it is not believed
that The state Of Illinois, would deny to Mis-
souri, and Indiana, the privilege Of using the
Canal without paying toll exactions. If the
state had assumed any thing of tho kind, then
the objection would have been good, and the
exceptions of Mr.. Calhoun would have been
supported.
His quibble, about tho former refusal Of two
western Senators to vote, IS nothing but
auibble, and will not amount to anyevi-
dence Of the correctness Of his intentions.
1t is but too apparent, that Mr.. Calhoun, has
been induced to his conduct, by that spirit Of
opposition to the Administration, which he has
always manifested, and that his hostility to the
cause Of Internal improvements, is pinned on
the faith of Farmer Giles and John Randolph,
Nathaniel Macon, and the kingdom of vir-
ginia." Mr.. Calhoun, has at las, succeeded,
in accomplishing a favorite object he has
closed the doors Of preferment against the
WEST, and it remains to be seen, whether
Western Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Ohio,
will submit to his decisions. If thoy must,
then they have lost principal part Of their
independence, and their means of communicat-
ing with the east, are to be measurably cut off.
by the almost insurmountablo barriers, which
are presented by the Allegheny mountains. 1t
remains for the people of the ives; TO say,
whether they will, or will not, submit to the
dictation and domination of John C. Calhoun
and his partizans and associates. BY his cast
ing vote, the Via President has assumed an
awful responsibility. and placed himself in a
situation, which must promote his early ruin.
The people of the wEsr,will nevsr consent to
the destruction Of the Cumberland Road.
