tensive additions have been made to the machine

improvements too numerous TO mention. In short,

correspondent inquiries what are the advantage
which will accrue to the city of Washington from the
completion of the canal TO Cumberland and what the
preparations necessary to realize them!
On some other OCCASION when less occupied by press
ing engagements, we may endeavor to point them our
more in detail than we do. 1t must suffice for
the present. TO point to the trade coal and ron and the
manufactures OF iron; to the trade in -four wheat corn,
rye, OATS beef pork and other products of the soil which
that great outlet will open to u.s. and to the supply of
country extending two hundred miles into the Interior
with what it may need in exchange for its products and
which has heretofore been drawn from other places OF
the extent OF the trade in COAL cannot, of course,
speak with confidence. Some estimate may be formed
from the quantity which finds its way to the Della
river from the coal mines of Pennsylvania We
think warranted in estimating it not less than
100000 TONS after the canal shall be fully in operation
TO what extent the trade in iron may reach or how far
manufactures of which the material is chiefly iron may
be carried on, we know not all experience however
shows that where coal and iron be had at
cheap rate, manufactures flourish
So much for the benefits resulting from these items A
word two to what is required to become sharers
with the neighboring cities of Alexandria and George
town in this trade. And to this, we say no one need
be in doubt, who will survey the canal basin at the mouth
of Rock creek and extend his exploration along the city
canal to its into the Potomac Let it be exam
ined and it will speak for itself Put it in order as far
goes and open 50 to afford an outlet to the river BY
the way was originally designed to take Let that be
done by the municipal authorities, and private enterprise
will complete the rest II.

Colonization Society.

0 o'eloek.-We have just returned from the Capitol.
There was the greatest crowd in which we have ever
been enveoped-every portion of the hall of the House
OF Representatives crammed with living multitude.
Perhaps from 5000 to 1000 persons were present-and
hundreds were turned away, unable to find seat or
resting place for the soles of their feet
The report from the Colonization Society was first
read. Then Mr.. Dayton, United States senator from
New Jersey, addressed the audience And last of all
arose the orator of the night, HENRY CLAY He
made no display OF eoquence, but he spoke clearly and
sensibly of the benefits of the Colonization Society
We were rather surprised to hear him speak with
loud and distinct voice. Every one knows that Mr.
Clay speaks in most agreeable manner Time
tinues to lay his hand gently upon him. Energy is
stamped upon the himself and he is so capable of
inspiring enthusiasm among his many devoted friends
that they will scarcely fail to urge on his preensons
higher chair than he occupied to night, and will make
it rather difficult for the friends of any competitor TO
rule him off the course

deeds of little army, and speaks of the insane the
feren propositions for prosecuting the war, and refutes
the arguments in favor of establishing continuous line
of posts and withdrawing military forces from the

egetc measures, and to make the Mexcans feel the full
weight of the mseries of war; and to indemnify the
try out Of the conquered territory OF Mexico In short
the proposed and the sentiments advanced we
