WEEKLY OMMERCIAL UNRAL.

Baltimore and Ohio Raiiroad.-Thc terminus of
this, the first projected Improvement believe Of
the Kind IN this country and the greatest OF the age
IN any country may now be considered as definitely
settled. By vote of the Directors, seventeen TO
five, Wheeling has been made the point Of intcrscc
ton the Ohio; and it is confidently predicted that
the vote of the stockholders who meet for the
purpose, a few weeks hence, will be confrmaory Of
the decision. This will make Wheeling, and that
speedily, the first city in Virginia. among the first in
the great west and there those who assume that
ii will be the greatest manufacturing Site by steam
power, IN The JCOyid. 1t is that now, by nature; but
the laws Of the State which have studicdly tended
to keep down the WESTERN for the benefit of the east
ern portion of the State have hitherto tended drive
away her population and prevent emigration there
to- The selection Of a terminus will have the effect
so Tar as Wheeling is concerned of cOuncractng the
balcfnl policy of the State toward the west.
But, considering The route which the directors have
adopted, and which the stockholders almost to a
tanty mW adopt, as already adopted by the latter,
this Improvement is already virtually direstcd of its
local ttlc--that of fThc Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road" 1t is destined to become a span, section
component, of one vast, continuous line Of improve

CANADA.

Navigation Of the ST. LaDreRce.-Boh Houses Of
the Canadian Parliament have concurrcd in an ad-
dress to the Throne, praying that the St Lawrence
may be opened to all nations, and the navigation
laws repealed as far as Canada is concerned. II was
carried in the Assembly BY 50 to ,, and in the Coun
ell by II to 3.
1t appears by statement of the amount of traffic
through the w cIland Canal the st. Catharincs
Journal, that with increasing trade, full onehalf
of the tolls arise from purely American onc-to and
from Oswego; and that, Of the traffic with the States
the greater portion carried on by Canadian vessels
showing the futily of the fears Of the Procctonsts
Tile 81. Laurence ROute.-The following state
mcnt by correspondent Of the Montreal Herald
whose letter is dated at Rochester, will be read with
interest because they contain several important facts
The toll on a barrel of flour passing the whole
length Of the Erie canal is about 81 CENTS and if the
canal were not oycr-taxcd, 81 more would take ii
from Buffalo to New York, and during severe COM
petition it might be taken at a trfc less.
When the short route of the Welland canal is
completed the depth increased to nine feet as pro-
posed and the whole line placed in good condition.
cit is now in very bad ordcr,) and all the canals
around the rapids of the St. Lawrence finished,
barrel of flour can be taken from any port on Lake
Erie or Michigan steam propcllers TO Montreal,
at an advance Of cents Cover tols) on Buffalo. AT
certain seasons Of the year (car in spring and late
in autumn) this would not be quite enough, but from
the 18th of May to the 18th of October, it would
nav very we'll With the free navigation of the st.
Lawrence would not the rates from Montreal to Liy
crpool be greatly reduced If So what vast change
would take place in its commcrcc-stcam propellers
would carry the European emgrants from Montreal
to Chicago for about what it now costs from New
York city TO Bultao,pis and bar iron, and other
heavy freight could be brought from your city to this
place (Rochestcr) for 81 per ton over toll, and for
80 per ton ii could be taken from Montreal 10
Chicago. 1t costs over SO per ton from New York
to Buffalo. Such facts need no comment. Only com
plcte your canals (thcy nearly donc) give US low
tolls: remove all restrictions from the St. Lawrence
and YOU will enrich yourselves, benefit us and do an
act Of justice to mankind.

Neic C0tion.-We stated yesterday the arrival Of
two bales of new Cotton from the plantation of
Gen A. G.. Carter. We learn that Mr.. Turnbull
has already ginncd and baled forty bales of new
Cotton, at his new and magnificent plantation near
ST. Francisvllc. From all we learn, the pros
poets for fine Cotton crop were never more cheer

planters have had hard time of il for some years
back. 1t was time that they were coming in for
their share of the general prosperity which has bless

Cotton and Corn Crops.-The Columbia South

with but little interval of sunshine and the prospect
of good Cotton crop is gloomy in the extreme A
fair sunshiny day has become a great novelty, and
this year has been wctcr than the last. The freshet

Wisconsin Wheat CrOp.-A farmer from Troy,
Walworth county, tells that the yield of Wheat,
in that ncighborhood and all through the Western
part of Walworth county, is not only abundant but OF
five bushels 10 the acre, aud many fields about
Troy, rises TO forty bushels. We hear similar ac
counts from jefferson, Dodge and the northern coun
ties generally. Indeed there is no exception, that
we know of, in any part of our fertile Territory.

of Rensselaer, will be abundanty rewarded for their
labor this year, the quantity if not in the market
value of their crops The yield of Rye and Oats is
very large and the crops of Corn, Potatoes and Buck
wheat will be abundant. The Grass crop has been
immense, and Hay will probably be cheaper next
winter than il has been for some years. Wheat can
not be grown to advantage in Rensselaer,. In pass

among farmers that Wheat was never better than

dant harvest. We hear less, too, about the Potato

THE CROPS.

Tie Cotton Crop.-A letter from Florida of a late
date speaks in Responding of the prospects of
the Cotton crop in that section. The wet has done
incaIculable injury. Short Cottons have shed very
badly, and Long Cotons appeared to be taking the
rust In fact entire Cotton crop of Florida,
not fail to be- from present appearances, very short
one. letter received in this city from Marengo
county, Alabama, says, that gloomy as were the
prospects before, they are vastly now. There
can be no doubt the writer says that the crop in that
section is lost. He fears that under the most favor
able circumstances the crop of last year cannot be
exceeded and he is not without approximations that
not enough seed be made to plant the next crop.
These are discouragng accounts truly.-Charleston
