THE CHEsAPEAHE AND OHIO
CANAL

IL is understood that Mossrs. CoRcoRAE and
RIoes, banker. Of Washington, have made con
tract to purchase the bond, of the company, and
that the Canal is to be finished at once. This is
gratifying intelligence the friends of tina, great
improvement. More particularly should il rejoice
the citizens oe the venerable town of Alexandria.
With her branch canal, de6osehing into the Poto-
mac, which sweeps past her wharyes with chan
mel fty feet deep, we think she is destined to be-
come the port of Cumberland, and of the vast min
eral region around il. We expect in few years
to see her perfectly rejuvenated-not vestige OF
grass growing in her streets. But in the mean
time, We beg our friend Of the Gazette" no, to
loose sight of those manufactures. Keep your
people alive on the subject If they will not un.
dertake them, invite Northern capital to engage in
the work. With your commercial advantages,
you want nothing but manufactures to ensure your
pros peTty.

INDIAN uLoQuENCE.

Tho "Arkansas MteAigencer" gives an account
Of the sayings and doings of council of certain
tribes of indians which assembled in the Creek ma
ton in May last. Harangues upon the wrongs and
injurie. of the pale faces, were delivered by many
of the Chiefs, which were plentfully interspersed,
after the fashion of the red man, with illusions to
the PRAIRIE the cataract the mountain, the forest,
and the Great Spirit. At length BLACK Doc, a
celebrated Chief, arose, and addressing himself
more particularly to the hospitable Creeks, whose
guest he was, thus spoke:-
brothers, your talk is good, but your beef is
batter :" and, turning to a fine haunch of prairie
beef, which lay smoking before him, he Ito use tho

In the day, of yore, during the prevalence OF
famine in the city Of Rome, when all efforts to OBJ

posed tina, the people should assemble at the Cap
itol, and that the most celebrated orators should
exhort them to emulate the virtues of their fore
fathers, and bear their suerings with tortude and
patience. The venerable Caro- was invited to pre-
side upon the occasion, and in the exercise of his
office of Censor, TO award the palm to the most
successful orator, The meeting was held, and all
the resources of the human mind were called forth
by the speakers. At length, when every heart
beat with anxiety, and expectation was on tiPtoe,

RICHMOND MEDICAL COLLEGE.

wa nave received IAtalosus OF the Oihcefs
and Students Of the Medical Department of Hamp-
den Sidney College, in Richmond, and much
pleased to observe its prosperity steadily increas-
ing. We have been paying attention for some time
past to the encomiums bestowed upon this lnstitu-
ton by tho papers of Richmond, as well some
others out of the city. We should think from the
representations and facts forth in the Catalogue
before us, the student of Medicine may enjoy the
very best advantages in the prosecution Of bis stud
les at this Institution, and therefore hope all Vir-
ginians, who are making up their minds to the
study of Medicine, will remember that tbs advan-
tages offered to them by the Medical Colleges Of
their own State. equal to those OF Philadelphia
or any of the Northern Colleges.
We are decidedly of opinion that virginisn.
shoald encourage their own Colleges of every de-
scription, where the advantages to be secured are
equal to those beyond own borders. Now ia
tho time for manifestation Of the love o. Virgini-
ans to the Institutions of their own State, when a
grand effort is be made through bout its length and
breadth to the dormant energies Of the peo-
pie in behalf of Education and State Improvement.
Ii is our duty to patronse own in preference to
foreign institutions. We have personal knowl
edge or acquaintance with the Officers and Faculty
of the Richmond Medical Colege"-'we know
some of them by reputation and have full conf.
dence in the opinion and Judgment of the respected
Editor of the "Free Press" JOHN S. GALLAHER
ESQ., who, in speaking of this Insti,uton, says:-
"Since the completion ofthe new edi'
fee, this College is amply provided for the
instruction of Medical Students. We
have the pleasure of a personal acquain-
lance with a majority of the Professors,
and know them to be gentlemen eminent
in their profession, and possessed of tai.
ents peculiarly adapted to give energy to
the business Of such an Institution. The
South should feel some pride, and
Virginia especially so, in chershing a
Medical College in this region, thereby
saving the expenditure abroad Of immense
sums of money. Every year adds to the
reputation of the College, and it only
needs the continued support of Southern
men to give it an eminence and efficiency
unsurpassed by any Medical College in
tho union.p
