DUEL. In our record of foreign news will be
found an account of duel between the Duke
of Wellington and Lord Winchelsea The
Philadelphia Gazette treats the subject in the
manner it deserves The editor calls the duel
plagiarism. He says:
"a gentleman at our elbow, requests US to
note the "Strange condolences" of this duel
and that between Mr.. Clay and Mr.. Randolph.
In the first place. Mr.. Clay was our chief min
lister of State, and the Duke of Wellington is
the British chief minister of State. In the
second place, Mr.. Randolph was a member of
the American Senate, and Earl Winchelsea is
member of the British House OF Lords. In the
third place, the Secretary of State challenged
the Senator, and the Prime Minister challenged
the Peer. In the fourth place, the Secretary of
States bullet grazsd the Senator'S flannel jack
ct, and the Prime Minister'S bullet according
to one version of the story grazed the lapel of
the PEERS coat. In tine fifth place, the Senator
fired his pistol in the air. so also did the Peer
In the sixth place, the Senator made the amende
honorable, and so also did the Peer. Who
can view this singular train of condolences,
and not be convinced it was intended The
British Duel is gross plagiarism. All the in
cidents have been taken from our American
Duel"

THE CANAL is now in a navigable state
throughout, the banks having sustained but
little damage through the winter, or by the
freshets this spring. By reference to our
marine list it will be seen that there have al
ready been several arrivals and departures, and
we understand there is prospect offull en-
ployment, at present, for all the boats on the
canal, which have now become considerably
numerous. TIE lading and unading Of boats
the arrival of teams with freight to put on
board of them, and the constant passing Of
trucks with goods brought by the boats to be
delivered at different places in town, yesterday
and day before, presented scene of hustle ano
activity in the vicinity Of the head of the canal
which afforded u gratifying contrast with the
appearance of the same place four years since
when no improvement had been made, and
when the land now occupied by the canal and
basin, and where new streets, wharves, and
ware houses are built, was used for a moving
field.

A GOOD IDEA. A western paper suggests an
exchange of the territory lying west of the
Rocky Mountains, with the Mexican govern
ment, for that delightful region Of country, sit
uated between our southwestern boundary and
the Rio Del Norte Separated by natural bar
riers, and by its remote situation from the rest
of the country, that section lying between The
Pacific and the Rocky Mountains, could never
be incorporated into the Union, or identified
with it in feeling, policy, or interest, or sue
cessfully defended from foreign invasion. The
representation of it in Congress, either as a
state or territory, would from the same causes
be nearly impracticable. The proposed ex-
change, while it would secure to US valuable
acquisition Of soil, would preserve the symme-
try and compactness of territory, SO desirable
in point of convenience, and 80 conducive to
union among the different members of the re-
public.
The above article has been travelling through
the papers for some time past. We notice it
now for the purpose of making a proposition
worth two of it, and one which, we believe,
might more easily be effected. That is, to ex-
change the territory west of the Rocky Noun
tains with Great Britain for the Canadas, Nova
Scotia, &c. The territory between our south
western boundary and the Rio Del Norte is an
integral portion OF the Mexican territory, of
which it is not to be supposed that government
will suffer any ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The British
provinces, on the contrary, are remote from
the parent government have already become
somewhat unmanageablc as colonies, and can
not be expected long to remain in a dependent
state. Under such circumstances, an exchange
Of them for the extensive and valuable terrific
ry between the Rocky Mountains and the Pa
cifc Ocean would seem to be good policy for
the British government 1t would give them a
strong foot hold or the Pacific coast, where col.
onies would grow up which would for long
time supply themselves with manufactured ar
ticles from Great Britain, and take off the sur
