TERNIN ALTON OF THE WABASH & ERIE
CANAL AT LAFAYETTE.
We said in previous number, that the idea of
extending this Canal from Lafayette to Evans Z
vile, rapidly dying away, as the people be-
came more informed 10 the fa!iacv Of the pro-
jec:; and that greater piece OF folly and ex-
travagancc where to be found on record,
than would be the extension Of the canal below
this place. But why, would ask, should IT
be extended below the head OF steamboat navi-
CATION! What is the object in vicw?-Nho IS
to be benefited by it? Would the State derive
any great advantages from such a scheme! Most
PROFESSIONALLY it would not. Some persons say,
that it should be extended 50 that we may have
a channel to carry of produce toa market.
Bat would also ask, whether the state has not
appropriated s 10 600 for the improvement OF the
! rapids Of the Wabash? Undoubtedly such an aP-
preparation was made, and they are now imProv-
ing the river with all possible dispatch and this
once done, the Wabash riv or will soon be navega-
bic for steam boats at any time Of the year up to
Lafayette. Here, then, IS one of the most beau
tul streams in the world, for the shipping Of pro-
duce, and every article which any person could
wish TO send to southern mart-and that part o!
the State through which the canal would run,
(shonld it ever be ex,ended) will receive all the
the country possibly demands.
On referring to the report Of the Commissioners
10 the Legislature Of last winter, find to our
establishment, that the extension of the canal
from this place to Terrc Ifauto, distance Of on
" 10 miles, is estimated at the round sum of 81 ,
O67, 911,7O including $1,000 per mile for contn
, gent cxpenses.-It might be said with propriety
that the extension Of the canal, would be scatter
u ing to the four winds Of Heaven, largo a
I mount Of the funds Of the State, without recei
= wing any thing in return, except the curses .
= those who would in such a case, be pressed fo
TAxH.
At tho last meeting OF the Board of Intcrna
. improvement, it was resolved that part Of ia
D Wabash aui Eric Canal should put unde
o contract bcIor Lafayette, and we have every CIV
j. idcncc TO believe that this will be the place o
b its termination. We cannot for a moment har
Dor the opinion, that any Legislature, other thai
J, that which passed the 'Mammoth LSW,'' wou
: ever give credence sanction TO such cxfravi
d yance and absurdity. Tho Congress Of the Uni
ted States donated lands for its construction from
;. the Lakes the head Of steamboat navigation
y on the Wabash rivcr-they, in their wisdom nc
a er once thought Of running the canal along tn
!. banks Of the Wabash, and none have eve
J. thought Of such folly, except those who seek fo
/, sef-interest, rather than the public good. Tim
o will clearly prove that in tho right, an
], that the Wabash and Erie Canal will terminate q
ID Lafayette, the hoad Of steamboat navigation, a
% was designed by tho General Governmental.
