THE RIVER AND HARBoR BILL.

The following remarks by that staunch democratic jour

contain suggestions the question of internal improve

striking and forcible;
The great works Of improvement In the States already
completed in rapid progress Of construconthe canals
and railroads surprising of all Europe-woud

general government adopted the system recommended by
wing politicians thirty ago. and adopted, AS far as 1t
could obtain the sanction of Congress- by the Adams Clay
administration Had that system been adopted the eNerons
the individual States would have been parazed by the
anticipation that what they wished to do would be done for
them by the nation private companies would have started
into being like those which have built the New fork and
Dunkirk rairoad-the longest in the world. The great
works. worthy of the ancient Romans in Virginia, Georgia
South Carolina Alabama Massachusetts, and nearly all the
Staesthese works might have been undertaken by
the federal government under the wing system of internal

ton and been delayed from session of Congress

carrying them would have swept every dollar from the
treasury and made it bankrupt greater portion of the

spectators than had been consumed the construction
of the works for which those funds appropriated by
Congress.
But the objections of General Jackson and President
Polk rested mainly the ground that such appropriations

of that immortal charter do find grant of power to the
general government to make roads canals clear out the
beds of and creeks in the interior of Sates Where
does that grant of power exist Nowhere unless it be in

The Union urges Congress 10 allow the bronze statue OF

changed from the original model that it be made Of

GOVERNOR WALKER.

The Pennsy of the 2sth June last in speaking OF
William Walker late provisional governor of Nebraska,
says
The governor resides in that part Of Nebraska lying be

white lady of pure blood He educated not merely
but accomplished gentleman AS specimens of polite lit

Though we have no personal acquaintance with Gov
Walker have the pleasure of knowing him by reputa

that the Pennsylvania says of him Heis gentleman

democracy.
