FEDERAL POLITICS.

Contempt raneously with Mr.. MaileFy's report in
opposition to any interior ence with the Tarif-and
indicating the belief that the system in,nuiebly
eorporated with the policy Of tho country-has bill
been reported by Mr.. Hemphill from the Committee
of Roads, for national road from Bufaloe, in the
state of New York, by Washington City o New Or
ieaus This bill empowers the President to appoint
three commissioners, whose duty it shall be to lay
othc said road, pursuing the general course of that
route, designated in the Report of the Engineers of
the 4th April, 1923, as the Western route as nearly
as may be- An estimate of the expense is Likewise
be reported the President By the commissioners
and if it does not exceed $500 per mile, the Presi
deut is required to take prompt and efficient mea-
s1res for its immediate constrection-and to dcfray
the expense, provided it does not exceed the above
estiuaate) the President is authorised to draw from
time to time on the Treasury.
Mr. Hemphill's bill naturally suggests some rcfec-
lions the past. Fhis great national road was one

uf, or whenever motion made during the last
administration to undertake it, it charged home
as an electoueerng manouvre of Mr. Clay, 10 bribe
the country interested, into the support of Mr..
Adams. Nevertheless, if there is good corrcspon-
dence between the Administration and its parzaus
ln congress- (amoDS WHOM MT dcfDpbiil anu ma
jority of his Committee are to be nunbered,) the
construction of this very road the bare con,enpla-
tIon of which, was often reproacbfuy cast into
the teeth Of Messrs. Adams and Clay is promptly
resolved upon and the second important Legislative
step taken under Gen. Jackson's Administration is
law providing for tie purpose! How differently will
the step be received now! The Virginia Legislature
is In session, yet shall marvel to see TIE resolu-
tons annually adopted during Mr. Adams Admins
tration, reasserted by that body!
However it may end, it must be confessed that the
Administration has commenced most glorious!y,
for the wishes of TIE South. In the first six weeks
of the first session of Congress, the radical tariff OF
1923 is defended by Standing Committee in all its
extent, and the principle Of the protective system
declared to be expedient, and immutable-and gi-
gantc scheme Of Internal Improvement is recon-
mcndcd by another Standing Committee, reaching
from one extent of the Union to the other and re-
quripg-if the u. States get their work done on
no better terms than Vngina--an appropriation in
The aggregate, tou alarming for Dir. Hemphll himself
to face. True, neither the Report of MIR. Malary
the bill reported by Mr.. Hemphil, have yet
received the sanction of Congress, but as the best
understanding must be presumed to exist between
the Executive, and its supporters in Congress, If is
not nationally to be doubted but that both the one
and the other have been moved in concert, and vii
