is the great James River K. Kanawha linej and it is to
the necessity of a prompt resumption and **peedy com
pletion ot that work, that wr» partii ul.trly dcsiru to call
your attention in this address.
I Numerotis objections have been urged heretofore a
gainst making further appmuri lions lor rnying on the
.canal.— Out) was, that the affairs ot the Company had
been badly conducted, and the apprnpri iiions, beret ifore
uiarle, injudiciously expended. Whether this be hue or
not, it is not very mah rial lor n* imvv to i; «j lire. Ii is
due til those W ho tiatVt: hail lh in toage.nrnl ot llif' Work,
however, In say, that two committees have hei.tifn
been appointed hy the General Assembly owii|*»$ed at
hast lo part ofthose who thought the work badly con
ducted, both of w Inch, alter exainitiati ui, reported la
, vorably totl.e Company.
Rut let it lie conceded, that the : ffiirs of the company
l have bet n badly conducted heretofore. and it * n*y fur
nislu s an addin rial annnmvt in favor of continuing ihn
Work, l ur surely, if il r wor! i;as produced a sulii
( h ut amount of lull in ihla i v-ar, tin* unfmts'iMd
state, to pay the interest on all its <h ns. arid keep all
, ihu works in repair, ami a ;i:r,dus of trerlwo
thousand dollars, us the rep-trl id the President 6imws
that it did, notwithstanding tin wasteful and (X'rawc'
gaol exj'< (iditure of iimni y ■ er!' 1 t<* its oi.v.yrs, it
lit fair to | n &tiiet, lliat when cnmpleh «t, and under
g"«»d management, it will In* a must vaiua do a id pro
dnetive Work, iitil this objection must nun he at si:i » n l
since the president of the 1 ompany, i n whom all the
blame wap thrown, i.ad the nnigitaidn ry anti pat
uotisin at ome to resign hi* ofli.1 , tin* moment it was
intimated to him, by the friends of the i.nprovetneni,
that the chance of obtaining furthe r aid for the rtirnpa
tty might be improved, by ins resigning hunifice.—
'J'lm work is now placed under ihe superinu ml. nec of a
gentleman ofrt putatton, selected Iron among yourselves,
and it is to be expected 11 w li be well conducted.
Another objection to continuing the ( anal, winch lias
been urge i, is, that it lias lierei. lore vn-ldt d no divide nds.
And was it to bn expected that the work would yield
dividends before it was completed? Suppose the Flic
Canal, which yields such an ermnn -us annual rev.nuc,
had slopped short of tho lakes, would ny from a half to
t wo thirds of its tolls have been cm (iff? Take off the
loll on the through tonnage and \\e doubt if the residue
wet.Id much more than y.jy the expends of keep ng the
canal. IVcs an^ man among y< u pi ugh hie ground
a;ui plant his Corn, and then aba: don it, because you
have 'lone so much work, and had no return fur 111 We
f-unfidenily believe, that if the work is cxpei ded through
tho Blue Ridge, ii will pay rm>ro thru per cent on
t he capital to he expended lor the purple. Over four
hundred thousand dollars have already fit ■« 11 extended bcr
tween Lynchburg and the mouth of the North River:
which, if the work stops at Lynchburg, will ben dead
loss to the Company. And il the canal to the Ninth
River will pay ttslls sufficit nt to me* 1 the interest on the
additional sum neressiry to terrplete it t. that point
Bornean r< riai- ly bo no valid objection (o going on with
it; at least thus far. Dot, say the very disinhruled
advocates of terminating the canal at Lynchburg, the
tolls taken at the old Blue Ridge canal, when in exist
ence, would not be sufficient to pay 1 he interest on the
additional sum necessary to complete the new canal to
the North River. This is perhaps true. But they keep
out of view, iht! immense increase of tonnage which the
Furnaces already creeled in Botetourt, Rockbridge, and
Alleghany will furnish—the greatly increased product
of the old Furnaces in tho last few years—the fact that
si veral new furnaces arc 111 the process of construction,
and that in the counties above named, and a few of tho
adjoining counties, tho ore, water power, and fuel, are a
buudaniTy sufficient, to justify the 1 rection of five times
as many lr. u works as already exit l, 11 the means of
transporting the products to market could bo t und.
The capitalists of the North are already turning their
attention to this region, with a view to establish iron
j works in it, as soon as the (Juki I si.all he extended

THE RESOLUTION OF N J I K K I’ASSKIF
I he Committees nl Conference reported respectively
to the Senate arid House of Representatives, on Thurs*
d iy, the resolution previously adopted hy the Senate,
inn slightly modified form. The Senate agreed to the
report of the Committee by a vote of \Z to KJ—the mi
nority being composed of Messrs. Cass, Allen Co., j
together with Mr. Westcott, who is opposed to the
notice in any shape whatever: Mewrs. T. Clayton J
and Evans, w ho, on the ortgir.nl passage of the resulu*
lions, had voted, for reasons such as influenced Mr.
Westcott,in the negativej now voted for the report
of the Committee of Conference, In the I louse, the vote
on concurring with the. Senate was 112 to 4G. The
modifications made hy the Committees of Conference am
scarcely appreciable, and, to our view, st em to make thu
resolution more pne .fie—they certainly, hy '.heir own
confession, rendered it more objectionable to the ultra
m?ti in either house. The reader will find the resolu
tion in another column. Rest his acumen in dig tin« j
go siting verba! and metaphysical niceties may he at
fault, and he, like the minoriiy in both houses, be uunblu
to perceive any dill, reuce between the resolution, as in
riginally passed by the .Senate, and ns modified hy the
Committee < f Conference, we give him the benefit of
Mr. I'kiun.'r.rCs txpljrati »qs. He, as chair.nan of the
| Senate Committee, being appealed to, said :
“l bat the rmi'ii Hire of conference propose to restore
j the rtb> luliou to ibe h im oriofr.ally proposed by Mr.
I ’rit'endeo, w ith the Ml w ing alteration, to wit : in the
ho t o! m:m < f the pr amble mvtcnd of “and that the al>
I i« nt'.••!■ of the government? of both countries may be more

! the settlement < i a'l their dillVn i.ces and disputes in re- I
'sped to said ten itory” insert, “and that the attention J
, of the gi>v(‘rr.ineiils of both countr.cs n ay be the more
earnestly dir < ted to the in!of>lion qf nil jn'i jier measures
h r a rj inly ami amicable adjustment of the differences
I and disputes m n^ard to sa J n rrit >ry.” Also, in the
i roMiluiion, insti ad id “give to the iiriiisli government
! the net ice required by us said 2d article for the shrug a- i
1 lion of the oi I convention of the G h of August, 1827,”
insert “give to the go imminent of (treat Ilrilain the no- !
i t.CB nquirid by the second anirlc of the said convention
I for the abrogation of the utimc” l‘m House Emended
that amendment of tin1 Senate by sti iking out “and ini* j
j mediately directed to renewed «Hurts for the amicable
*• It .Vim nt,” and by substituting the w ■ rdft “ directed Ini
I the importance o| n speedy adjustment,” The 'lomrnit- f
tee of conference had ugu id to strike out from the word j
“importance” inclusivp, m.d to insert “directing the a» U
.tiopt'unof all pre.jvr n*easures tor ihe amicable adjust I
I mem of nil their differences and deputes in respect t»I j
'said territory.” I
The truth is*, !!:*• ! i use virtually receded from its vote
of ii.si:,:ing uj -n iis amendment. The changes agreed
t i by ti.'r Senate', (YmmitUe were intended merely to
i oive some colorable pretrx: to the majority in tin* House j
to retrace their steps. 'The substitution of the words “ail
! proper measures” for “renewed efforts” does seem to
strengthen the pacific character of the resolution. It
was especially ubjec ed to in the Jliuse, by Mr. Me
Ci.ernami, as instructing the President to compromise,
not only on the 41hh degree, hut even upon the line of tl«
