most, if not Iho mod, 'important of nil the
aaaeiub'iiijjrs over hold ia t'10 south The coic
morco and tho prosperity, ot all the
southern states to a greater or leas extent de
pends upon tho navigation of tho Mississippi
river and lis tributaries. From HI. Louis to
tho"Gul( of Mexico this broad falhor of wa
ters with tho innuinorahlo streams that crop
y into it, drains a country immense in extent
of territory, wonderful in tho quantity, quali
tv and variety of its productions and a para
dise in tho geniality of its climate. Multi
plied millions of timbered and prairie
lands, upland and alluvial in their virgin
richness, await the reclaiming Industry of
papulation that thej may yield up of their
fatness to Inoreaso tho contents of tho great
i; store houses of the world and to strengthen
f tho broadoning, deepening current of Amer
ican commerce that is yoarly growing greater.
The little rill that trickles down tho nioun-
tain side may in itaelf, aside from tho music
: oCJitB rippling, and its sparklo in the sun
t hunt, be insignificant, but as it Hows onward
i and is joined by other rills that swell it into
hi a brooklet, and by other brooklets that make
of It a creek, and by other crooks that broaden
c It into a river, and by other rivers that create
of U a mighty stream to boar upon its bosom
k i the Vfsaols of every clime, and by its magic
I' power to build up groat cities along
its btnk, it bocomes a grand
-) actor in tho economy of a
: country's enlightenment, and tof its com
1 mercial power and importance). So is it with
r the efforts of :i people in thoir own behalf.
We, of thj south, have all that heart could
desire, so far as soil and climate and tho
!-valueln themartsoftho world of its products
' concerned, and wa havo a mighty river,
'with its hundreds of leaier rivers flowing into
C it, that rolls in silont majesty and solemn
'.grandeur to tho sea, munillcenl beyond
comparis.m, In its bounties it we will only
avail oursalv.is of them, and offering to us,
possibilities boyond tho conception of
jhumtn ken. Tho groat northwest, with its
waving fluids of wheat and corn, must have
an outh.it for its grain, and naturo has
furnished it in the Mississippi
river. Tho south, with its
white acros of cotton, its broad plantations
of sugar cane and rico, must h ive an outlet
for its fl'Aony stiple, its sugar and molasses
and ricd, and within sight of its gin houeos,
its sugu mills, its rice hullors, tho Mississip
pi and its tributaries, and oven its brooklets

pling laughter, pour their waters gulfward.

lumeiont for tbe domanu. Let us by way of
: comparison, look at the Hudson river. lie
Vide the Mississippi, it is insignificant, and lit
. country tributary in its products is but as the
.island to the ocean that laves its shores, is
Jbut as capo to continent to the country sub
i idiary to the Mississippi, yet ono of tho
grandest spectacles of the world is the con

urei of the lonnago of these two rivers, yet
that of the Father of Waters is not t:tlie
of tln.t of tho Hudson. Thoro is no minute
of the day cr night on Bny part of the
"Modern Khini" betwoen Now York and the
ht'id of navigi'.ion, that tonnage moving up
and do wn the rivjr cannot bo seen by acres

Walk down Canal street in Now Orleans, on
an afternoon, and a countless throng f hu

one v ael now spreads its snowy bm'.Is ana

"Ah ! bu','' say annu people, 'railroads are
superceding river tnui.-p.o'talion. Tin) Mis
sissippi river cannot compete with the great
trunk lines of railway leading from tho west to
the Atlantic sa.tbnard." Hight along tho bank
ot Uieltulson iver, its trains visible liviu
tho ondless throng of tho water craft, runs a
four track railroad that starts a freight
train heavily ladon in each direction over its
lines, as the half hours strikes signal the time
of (lay. Wo shad svatch the proceedings f
this convention at Now Orloins with a deep
Interest. It can create tho germ
that will mature into a mighty
