successfully with the whole world. The water pow
er Of this coGnry is truly enormous, and more than
| adequate to the whole steam power OF Europe we
could carry our Gotten up the Mississippi aud OHIO
from the river coast, and Tennessee, along the Ca
nal to Lake Erie and down TO the great water pow
region of Niagara Falls for less expense than we
can bring it from the heart of Tennessee down the
Ohio and Mississippi to New Orleans, thence 10
New York, TO be shipped to Live pool ana iiavre'
In the neighbothood Of Niagara the water could be
drawn off from the Ridge Road, from Lockport TO
Roche ster so as to turn thousands Of mountain tiers
of mills placed one above the other, the hill! sides
for space OF 80 miles
Then would come the railroad from Rochester to
Albany; then the double branch to Boston and New
York; with steam ships to carry eur produce into
every market ofthe world, whence we might drive
out the British in every description Of goods,
as we have already driven her from the South Anne
ricaa market in the trade for coarse cottcns. This
is no chimcrical view. We could raise the cotton
cheaper than they could; we should have to trans
port it less distance, and only through our inland
waters; whilst theirs must come from India, with
the risks of long navigation, such as ship
wrecks spontaneous combustion lightning, and cap
ture in ease ofwar. The labor in manufactures,
could be done as cheaply as in Eng land; for there is
dace for sustaining manufacturing p pnlation,
which this country raise. All this with our in
exhaustible supplies of coal, iron, lead, Sc of the
best quality; means of raising raw silk to any.ex-
tent of manulac turing all of wires the ferli-
ty Of our so!our sugar charlottesville perfection
to which our machinery has attained, and 10 which
il will attain, would soon enable 10 rival England
in svery description Of manufactures and drive her
out Of every market in the world
All this, too would tend to bind the north and south
closely together. The north would then bear the
same relation to the south that England now does,
as the south wesld rely solely the north for the
purchase Of her cotton.
This question will become highly important as
the Presidential election is decided and
will materially affect the movements of the mex
administ ration After General Harrison is elected,
Calhoun and his friends viii form distinct southern
party, and make these abolition movements the plea
for venting the spleen of their disappointed feelings
the new government. This will be but
phase If the original feeling Of hostility to their old
opponents. The south will undoubtedly join in this
matter, man, and call loudly on the general
government to resent this interference Of Great Bril-
tain in .er social institutions. The stock bbeTs Of
Wall street. and traders it'll England, in the nerth,
who are among the warmest supporters of Harrison,
will want to have every thing smooth and pcac cable
with Eag land, in order that they may sustain loss
and they will call the general government not to
interfere. And this will be made the ground Of a
serious opposition TO Gen. Harrison throughout the
entire south. We shall calmly and closely watch
the tide Of events.
