THE FATHER or WATEss-MAKrNe THE MOST
Hrm.--A correspondent of the New York Oh
srUer, writing from Dubuque, July 10Th, says;
'1n my last, alluded 10 the fact that steam
boat had commenced running on the Mississippi
above the Falls of St. Anthony, to Sank rapids, a
distance of upwards of eighty miles. Since then
have learned that the same enterprising Yankee
that owns that steamer is now building another,
10 extend tn line still further north the next sea-
SON The new boat will regularly 80 miles
above Sank rapids, and in good stage of water
ca go $50 miles, or about $50 miles above the Falls
of ST. Anthony. gentleman who has recently
returned from exploring the head waters of the
Mississippi, says that there is good channel never
less than four feet of water even up to point with
in ten miles Of its ultimate source, viz 1asca Lakel
The country ia described very fine, and although
Astounding in beautiful lakes, is not low and
marsby, as might bc supposed.

The Augusta Georgia. Constitutionalist Of
the 18th inst. gives us a little insight into the
plan of ''non-intercourse" as a means of South
ern defence We referred to it few days since,
as step leading and designed to lead towards
disunon. This was said in comment upon the
proposition of leading Democratic paper in
Georgia, to ''treat of commercial intercourse
with the North, and lay tax on all the pro-
ducts imported from thence" 1t will be seen
that the Constitutionalist contemplates State
regulations to prevent the expectation of the
cotton and other products of the South to North
ern ports. What these regulations are to be we
are unable to conjecture, except they be penal
laws acting directly upon the citizens, for
the constitution prohibits the State from i'm
posing any duty on exports, except what
may be absolutely necessary for executing
its inspection laws, and further provides that
all laws for this purpose shall be subject to the
revision and control of Congress. The Consti-
nationalist, at all events, recommends only
such State Legislation as shall be admissible
within the limits of the federal Constitution
Weare at a loss to conjecture by what methods
| within those limits articles of Northern manu-
facture are to be kept out of the Southern mar
kets. Perhaps information on this point is in
tended to be conveyed by the suggestion that it
is Sin the same way" that expectation is to be
prohibited.
We give the remarks Of the Constitutional
isl, with few immaterial omissions
