(traluiltdjroi,i thi.jlr.-t jgc.) ih-s st rii-rtm heme: much the lirc-t source of the Maumec itself. consiclerniion cannot fail to impross upon the mind cf the Engineer, to whom the construction of t'ae work may he i-rmmitted, llie absolute urreity of the utrr.?'-.-t economy in the ue of the water. Should it he deemed necessary to construct reservoir?, for the preservation of wr.tcr during the dry scaon, several excellent cile3 arc to he found upon the wlioie of this section. Sup.Divisiox 3d. From the head of the Rapids to the tern. illation of the lino at the villae-e of Maumcc. distance, 17 miles, if 6 yard. Descent, CO feet by 10 lock. This fubdivision differs in some points of view from tbe preceding one. Owing to the vicinitv of some of the head branches of Swan creek, a tributary of the Maumcc. the ground especially, near its co:nmeneement.rcsemblps in its Hat and 1 subdivision 1-t. From the rapid descent of the river, more locks are rendered necessary on this sislulivision than on either nf the others. Limestone, however, of the best quality, both for building and mrtking lime, can be obtained in the Greatest abundance, from the bed of tbe river and piaries in the neighborhood. The excavation resembles in its character, that of 'he latter part of subdivision Cd. Three points of termination for the (anal, here present :l- .Twelves to view. Que at Lawrenceport, a ullage situated at th" mouth of Swan creek, about to miles below the village of Maumee: another at a point, two miles below this latter vilhu, and a third at the village it-elf. It hash. -en represented hv many respectable inhabitant of that countiy, thai one of the principal branches of Swan creek, which heaiN near the beginning of this subdiviMon, atVords the least expensive route fer tbe canal; pur-urn:: a -traight course nearly its whole length throunh open wood and barif-ns, iitiob-lructrd by ravines. Il Tva-fuither urg( d, that f.bstrm funis existed in the Maumee river between this and both of the other points and that il would corduco more to tbe gener d interests of llm country at larp-.tlnf thp c.mal should tennii-ate a! that place, it being con-ideied the undoubted head of the Lake navigation. Hal from "r totmation obtained from vanou- sources, it wa not thought that ibis latter objection was Mifliciei.lly -ub-tantintcd to warrant the extension of the evamiaations tin distance. Tbe consideration abo, ihat tlii- village i situated in the territory of Michigan. caused it to be decried improbable that the State of Ohio and Indiana, would consent to cou-ti an t o great a weik. when tbe benefit to be derived from it principal termination v, to be reaped by another. These aie the reasonwhich ran-cd this point to be rejected. It remain-that the reason which jntluenced the terminalion of tbe line at the village of Maumer, in preference to the poir t two miles below, should be -tated. The argumentwhich appear mo-t obviou- in favor of the latter, are bnedv these. It i- a well ascertained fact, that the waters of Lake Krie, are subject to periodic al li-c- and fall-, and that these produce a corresponding ctVef t upon the river. Tlie line, nrun the pa;t season, tetminated at the surface of the water, at that time atb eted by the rise of the Lake, h i- ahoa well arertairu-d fact, that the ner at .Maumee. i- materially inllueneed lv the picvalenre of an Fa-tei l or We-terly wi id, the onecau-ing it to rise, and the other to fall, from tw o and a half to three feet in a few hour. It i- aho admitted, that there are two Lars in the i hannH of the river, a -hort di-tarice below. prcH'riting -f i iou- ol-tacles to its navigation during the low uiige- cf ;he water. Tlii ch'mm-l vv.as examined at a time, when it w.is not deemed hkeh to he if .lhienced b either of the prevailing wind-, and it i- not believed, that w hen th- Lake is on the decline and hiring the prevalence of n Ve-t rl wind, a -utVieienc ot vva er will he tound upon the-e bars to allow the pa-sage of ve teh. navigating the Lake, except thoe of the -malle-t (la--. fo (he upf er, that an, at that tim' find water ullicieut, at the tower t)0! ,t. lb low th''-e oh-tnu tioii-, however, the water is jf'f sufli ient depthto admit essel- of a much larger size. The line terminate- at a point ju-t where a steep blull come- to the water- edge, whence the channel, confined by a large Idaiid. continue? co-e to it foot all the way down to the lower point. Il was thought best, after mature deliberation, to terminate the bne at the tipper point, and tosugge-ttwo modefr remedy ing the dtllieiiltics in the navigation below. O.ie 1-to remove the obstructions on the bar-, and the other to roti-trurt a tow path along the river batik', the neces-ary dit ance. The tirst ( an be ( ll'eeted at an cxpen-e not to exceed s : 1,500, the oh-tale con-i-ting principally of d bached ma c of rock-. The ot'e r cati be done at the ordinary price ol -im-pl" exeavation and i mbatikrr.'Mit. F.itherof these modes, it i Ik lieved, will obviate the nrces sity of continuing the canal anv fitther, without detritrnt to the interest of the country. The canal terminates by a basin an 1 guard lock, part of the excavation for which, will Ik: through limestone rock, furni-hing a safe, ecurc and solid foii"d ition. Il may be proper, here to remark, that in the estimates for thi -e( tjo;i, the prices for -imilar work upon the Oaio canal, has been followed a neailv a- po-sible. The great body ol Plater and ice, that descend the river in the spring, w ill require that thr aqueduct find dam- across it, should be constructed in the be-t rnantier, and of the mo-t -.olid matciiab. Iriflo-ing thi rominunicrition, I cannot hut acknowledge the abb: and faithlul a-:-tance I have received in the preparation ol thi-it port, from Mr. (! orge Smith, a gentleman w ho haf'r -orne time, engaged in thi branch of -cience, with equal credit to him-elf and benefit to the department. His talent', arid ind-i-try entitle him to tire highest praise, my feeble pen

It wdl be pc-rceived tn tl the suite of Ohio has not shpul iied in the compact as to the dimensions ot tint part of the canal winch she is to construct, nor, indeed, has Indiana; but the paramount interest of te hitter in il' voih,and ns be.iig with her a wellknown favorite measure, would alone ensure the pe:foim nice on hot pait,ma piojx r ;iiKi otioxceptionable manner. l'ut the state ot Ohio agrees to construct and keep that part of the canal in a state of repair, so as to admit of free and uninterrupted navigation; and that the citizens ot this st lie shall nivaLMte the same with their boats, merchandize, and all o. her prop rtv ; liom which n si i ins rational to conclude that she is Ixjiuiil to oonsnuct such uvvoiKas is comm mly undetstood ly a can d, such as will he adapted to the various transpo nations required by intern il commerce The time stated, within which, the won; is to he completed by her, is move remote than could have boon oK cted; as the public may believe that p.opev otlorts will not be nude to complete it sooner than by the expiration of the lime prescribed ; which, besides the consideration to tins shite of the loss she must .sustain bv ihe unnecessary delay, n.iiiht check the country in the region of t heeanal in its piesent rapid advances in population and improvement. If the compact should lie ratified, and ihe p.ovisions of it should not he eili'f lu tied l-y the state of Ohio, the granl ou!d be released to this state liitt two ye ns and two months hi lore the expiration of the tune allowed fy 'ougros- for the completion of the woik. What then would he the situation of Indiana? 'I he can d completed thioughher territory to the .Mauu.ee, twenty miles below Fort Wayne; m. continued fail; ies for neailv eighty miles to the legulir navigation of the northern wateis; the remaining time msulhcor.t to t nable her to avail herself of the grant; the consequent forfeiture of the immense advantages piota red by the genual gove.nme.'it, and to which may he added, the deplorable depression and extensive injury am. iig her citizens, pioduced by the disapjioinlmenl. How h.uiL'eil would ho the aspect of the destiny of this state? Would the general 'mwoi iimeut, by way of partial relief, for it would be then all she could render us, in Continuation of her liberality, extend the time for the completion of the work? Your committee, in tAmg this ptoqiertive view of the subject, in discharge of thedur' assigned them, are representing what eagli juKs'r.h he ti e davism."" consequences of the rati heat ifTn of this compact, and desiie not to I' understood as app ehending any fiihtse of goad hndi on tha pait ol i iiio. Her governmi nf, sa similar to oms, her contiguity, the congenial habits of her people, who are also extensively bound to those of Indiana, by the ties of liieiidshin and kindred, and above all, the high

character w liich Ohio sustains in this confederacy, forbid the supjM.silionthat she would permit herself to be theeause of such a cahanity. Yoiircommitfeo believe that Ohio ha- no desiie but to deal justly and generously with her younger sis or; that as she has the power with her million of people, sosho is piedisposed to foster, and if icq a bed by our iieeossities, sustain us, and could never bring herself to anylie utless calculations to do ns an impiovoked injury. liesides this, when a pledge is mutually made by .sovereign stales, good faith is the u lianee, and she who deals treacherously and violates it, commits an act highly injurious if not fital to both her honor and prosperity. It is confidently believed, however, that the state of Ohio, lo relieve the

most sensitive from all apprehension, and to prevent heieahcr the tor-

inatiou of any gloomy, discouraging for. ! Hidings, as a manifestation of

I her good feelings, and an earnest of her honorable and generous intenj lions, would clwei filly ratify this eunqjacl with such a modification as , to require the two states to act simultaneously in ibis important woik. ! Your committee therefore recommend to the 1 louse of Hepresentatives
