and western part Of Tho State TOOK deep

her Of them however cold benefit uy
section Of tie State h auy form N manner
gh1tever. Tho entire country Fast Of tue
Roanoke had no more connection With them
lhan thoy could have 10 o rail road to the
moon. Myself, however with other East.
efu friends, IN the spirit winch have 9pst
proclaimed, voted for tham, eaj, through
our votes, they passed this body. We at.
tachcd to tho Iatlsr bin 40 amendment, PRO
posing a subscription Of $500 gJ0 10 the
Roanoke IuIat Company, which was relnc.
ted. We did not, however, withdraw cur
support TO their measures, but continued
their friend to the cud. We were told oar
amendment was rejected, because the sUr.
veys made Of the inlet wcto Of a conflicting
character. Lot another s1rvey b. made,
was then SAID, and If tue measure Is rcp0r,
ed 10 be practicable, VIC viii 20 Wth you
we will Subscribe literally 10 the work.
THIS suggestion was supposed to be reason
able, and was acquicSccd ~. 4 newurvcy
has been made BY very competent Eng.
aeer--hiq report Is all that could be desired.
fhc work is SAID not only to be practicable,
but a grea, deal moro SO, aud at much less
expense, than ever was anticipated.
En It remembered Mr.. Speaker, the dis
cussions upon these b,Sa5sumetvcry much
a party charlcier--lhc opposition 10 them
came almost entirely from the Van Buren,
p1rlv--wo Of tho cast were uciiug with the
gestcrn Wigs and relied on their promises
and known sentiments IN favor Of internal
improvements.
The proposition for western rail road
has fllcd, from tho condition of the times.
am sorry for il. The East, however, act
ed IN good faith, lhropsh out the transaction,
md expected, on Gus return here 70 be trent
ed with similar fairness and llberaIity.--
