ze,s Of Joliet are agitating the ship ca
nal question, and recently held mass
meeting to adopt measures for bringing
Il m after before Congress at its com.
ing session. The idea is to enlarge the
Illinois and Michigan canal which now
cor meets the Illinois ritter with Lake
Michigan, 30 as TO permit the passage Of
at least a thousand tons burden. The
Chicago Times thus pertinently alludes
to the project:
The necessity for ship communica-
sion between the Mississippi and the
Lakes is now 80 apparent as to attract
universal attention. As q military
me .snre its importance is incalculable.
The Government will need it at every
instant Of the progress OF the war. But
beyond tho military necessity, there are
great commercial advantages which will
cnmmend the PR jet not ouly to Illinois
but to the eutire Northern States. tits
estimated by the Engineer of the Canal,
as We are informed, that it may at q
comparatively triA'ng expense be enlarg.
cd for ships Of capacity Of thousand
tone, and thus, in the language Of the
Joliet resolutions, "every State west OF
the Allegheny and east Of the Rocky
Mountains be placed in direct water
communication with the Lakes in time
Of war, and in time of peace with Great
Britain" The effect will be to COM
pletely turn the continent around. The
mouth Of the Mississippi would no long
er be at New Orleans, but upon the At
Ianlic seaboard. The project is grand
,ne, rich in CONNIE rcial advantages, wor-
thy Of the genius Of the American peo-
Pile and the enterprise of this age OF
great public works.
