importance Of the st. Lawrence River.
Edffora Chtcepo Tribune.


am glad to-see TINT Sour paper, which
has acquired its present position by aayoca-
ting popular rights, has taken mp the great
commercial question Of the day-she opening
Of the St. Lawrence river to the trade Of the
lakes. In comparison with this, all questions
of railroad management sink into insignid-
cance; for IN theirbest estate, railroads Gun
only act as feeders to rivers and canals m tho
conveyance Of our great staples. By some
means or other, we must have the right of
way by the St. Lawrence to the seA- More
than this, we need the south bank Of that
river, including New Brunswick and Nova
ecotia, and by means Of that natutal and
obvious line, to settle forever all boundary
questions.
If, the views of that sagacious American
diplomatist, Benjamin Franklin, bad pre-
these United States. Had the American
Commissioners at the treaty OF Ghent FORE
seen the future importance Of the lake region,
We might hare had the st. Lawrence for the
boundary, fifty yeass ago, instead Of an ima-
ginasy line, running through the northern
Wilderness. Whether this outlet may be best
attained BY purchase Of the territory, "a
obtained the mouth of the Mississippi,
or by the annexation Of Canada, as We OBJ
tanned Texas, may be o question; but thnt
the Northwest will have the t1anslt to the
sea, Is think, certain.
II is time the great agricult ltu1al interest was
| heard IN the matter. The producers have
been 1eeced long enough BY carriers and
| mIddle-men. With their strong arms they
have re-opencd the Mississippi to commerce
| now let them by united effort open the st.
| Lawrence.
It viii be easy to show to New England
which w0y her interest les. What she wants
Is cheap food, and market for her manufac-
tures, and by assisting IN this enterpize ahe
| will obtain both. Moreover her Bhipowners
will find in the opening Of the st. Lawrence q
vast carrying trade, which will furnish en-,
ploymeut for their vessels for sty months o1
the year, giving them the winter for the cot
ton trader The mouth Of the St. Lawrence
Is 200 miles nearer to Boston than to New
York, which advantage would certainly give
the former city the grain tEade Of New Eng
land, since tho New York canals conld never
compete In price with this route
Let the Northwest and New England BE-
united, aud they can prevail even against the
great ruflroad and canal interests Ut New
York and Pennsylvania, which BY united Ct
fort have go long controlled the policy oi the
country, and taken to themselves three
fourths Of the value Of the great staple Of TIT
Northwest. !.
The Northwest has saved the nation, for Il
| il not too much to say that, II accession hai

cessf1}-the Northern States alone could no
have put it down. Then let this people, WIZ
