MIR. Riddles Remarks upon the Canal Bill
We publish to-day the remarks of Mr.
Riddle in faver Of the Canal Bill, which
was recently defeated in the House. That
bill proposed to enlarge the Erie Canal
and the Illinois and Michigan Canal
to admit of the passage of armed vessels
from the Atlantic and the Mississippi to
the defense of the lakes. Various reasons
were assigned for opposing it. The cost
Of the work and the length Of time re-
ouired to complete it were the principal
objections. Both Of these are treated by
Mr.. Riddle and answered.
- The necessity for some defense Of the
lakes in case Of a war with Great Britain
is apparent to the emost stupid understand
ing, and the wisdom of preparing for such a
defense in time, is equally manifest. The
enlargement of the northwestern canals
connecting Lake Michigan with the Mis-
sissippi, we consider of much less import
ance, from war point of view, than that
Of the Erie. Under existing circumstances
England has passage for gunbOats from
the Atlantic to Lake Ontario via the st.
Lawrence and the Rideau canal, and thence
70 Lake Erie via the Welland Canal, while
the United States has no corresponding
advantage within her borders. This sim
pie fact is sufficient to excite the liveliest
apprehensions upon the fate Of the COM
meree and the cities of the Lakes in the by
nO-mesns-impossible event of war with
Great Britain. To postpone all means Of
defense, because the country cannot afford
any additional expenditure in time Of
wsr, is to invite foreign war and offer a
premium upon Intervention.
