| IMPORTANT MovEMENr-TuE ARBoR AND Ri
YER CONVENTION AT CMcAso.-lt must not be
forgotten by our citizens that they are called upon
| to assemble this afternoon at the Exchange, III
Wall street, at quarter before three O'CLOCK LOT
the purpose of selecting delegates TO represen.
| this city in the Chicago Convention, which VIII
| convene in Chicago on the 9th OF July next
The measures that will occupy the time and
| attention of the River and Harbor Convention
are of the most important nature In a local as well
as national point ofview. In a national point OF
| view. because the increasing commerce and
growth of the Western part of our country bene-
| fit the whole country, and locally the city Of
| New York and Albany, and every other town
between this and Chicago, are benefited by that
commerce.
It cannot be disguised that from various causes,
of which this is not the time to speak, because
they involve questions Of political principle, and
the Convention will be composed of men of all
parties, that the West has been sadly overlooked
in respect to receiving the care which the feder-
al government ought to exercise over it. Year
after year, lives and shipping to vast amount
have been lost, for the want of proper and safe
harbors, and the Western people think that the
time has come when they entitled to share in
tHls TePect LIE advantages Wnlcn the Atlantlc
States enjoy. They want liberal appropriations
for harbor, lake and river improvements-for
lighthouses and for beacons, without regard to
political distractions, in order that their vast
commerce may be conducted in a safe manner.
They want the disadvantages which they now
labor under removed; and they wish the people
of the rest af the United States to know and un-
derstand what these disadvantages are, for they
think that the public at large are not acquainted
with them, or the appropriations which they
have labored so hard for in successive sessions
of Congress, would have been granted at first.
But it is not matter that concerns the West
alone. We in this city are identified with the
West. Boston, Philadelphia, New Orleans-in
fact, all of our Atlantic cities are identified with
the West in this measure, and any interest or
profit which that part of our country reaps from
river and harbor improvements, will be particle
pated in by every Atlantic seaport.
In this light it is justly viewed by our mercan-
tile community, and they have taken prelimina-
ry measures to have this city properly represent
ed in the convention. The meeting is called this
afternoon at the Exchange, and we hope that
politics will have no influence in the selection
of delegates.
