The nc&r approach oft* meeting «rf Cobg^ew, as^eli as of ear State Legislature, wo«ld seem to from tbdie friendly to tie improve«ftbe navigation of tbe Wabash, attention to the Important interests connected with it. From the exertions of our immediate Representatives in Cougrtm (Messrs Ewiws *wt H**»»»*») we taive eveiy f«W»d Co Ufm tor fet«re«U*f tbeir •MiMoived'iatte tpttAfnmoni ot diem uMm!•— "••f-'' *e1 h»rr thr iMMMk LtgitkOmn of o«r«w« State will oet be of what i« doe to tbfathrivief aection Of Indiana. Tbe Illinois appropriation of 12,000dollar*** yet beld ont in food faith, and may be secured, provided Indiana appropriates a like sum for tbe improvement of tbe river navigation. At an early day ia tbe next session, we hope to see a aoveaeat «*d« to «e-

something for this object. A naall expenditure, judicioa*ly applied, «^bt be productive of mocb good at this time, and especially if the General Government should see tbe importance of doing aoiaething in tbe saatter. 8o«e eigbt jears ago, a company was chartered by tbe Legislature of Illinois, 4inder tbe title of the ''Wabash Navigation Company," possessing certain privileges for the improvement of the Wabash river. We are led to underitand that this company noir seriously contemplate commencing effective operations, provided it can obtain the coosent of tae Indiana Legislature to perforta certain acts necessary to its success. This Company pfbpose to cut a canal from the head of the Little Rock Riflle down to the foot of the White River Riffle, opposite the town of Mount Carmel, on the Illinois side, sufficiently capacious for the passage of steamboats of the largest class. To accomplish this, they coutemplate making application to the next Legislature of Indiana, for permission to construct a dam sufficiently high at the foot of the Little Rock Riffle to raise the water at that point high enough to let boats passofer it in safety (say 4 feet) and down to tbe said dam, at wbi cb the canal will take its water oat. Thi* company will stipulate so to construct this dam that it will not injure the natural naviga tion of the river in high or low water. We are not ourself at all acquainted with the ability of this company to execute the work under consideration, but wo have no doubt if their charter be at all liberal they might make a gook iovestmcut of their capital in the proposed work. At all event*, it might be well for the Legislature to enquire into the matter (should an application be made), and if deemed prudent, such privilege* granted a* would ensnre the commencement of a work in which the whole Wabash country feels such a lively interest. It is no harm, at any rate, to call public ntiention to the subject.

FROM THE BOSTON TRANSCRIPT. HE.VRV CLAV.

By a notice which will be found in its proper place, the reader will be apprised that a meeting of Young Men, friends of Mr. Clay, will be held this evening at the Supreme Court room,in Court square,to adopt *uch measures as they may doom moit appropriate a* an expressive demonstration of their attachment and friendship to the great statesman of the West! We earnestly hope that the meeting will he fully attended, as we are confident that on this subject the young men of the city entertain but one bjvinion. .W« _t»w« Mr. £lajsa*j#ptf#nM?W F.h«tiftiTr,*Vtebf not easily cancelled. Wc owe Mr. Clay, as citizens of the United State?, an incalculable sum of honor, for having added so intich toour national dignity and renown. We owe Mr. Clay as men brought uji "a| the feet of Gamaliel," rpjckcdoi" tlie great of Liberty, out Wrtn, we owe Mr. Clay a* the worote ¥'epresentativo of the West, a reception commensurate with the generous kindness and attention extended by his fellow citizens,to New England's son, the orthodox expounder of the Constitution. What the people of the West did to honor DAXIKI. WKBSTKR, we will do to honor HKNRV CI.AV, "and it shall go hard if we profit not by their example."

r*OM THE N. V. EVK.VtNO STAR. MR. CLAY.

The paper*^'generally have noticcd the respectful attentions which Mr. Clay has received in tbis city from men of all parties, and wc learn that he proceeds to the eastward this afternoon, whetv his reception will be, if possible, more cordial. We have no hesitation in declaring that weloofcwpon this event a* indicative of a better *tate of feefin^s towards public men than has of late times prevailed.

The syttcm of cutting the throats of every prominent politician who will not support certain men, or adopt certain measures, has produced incalculable evil in our country, and has ulienated the attachments and joured the feelings of an immense number of honest, talented men, who could have been of immense service to tho Union, but who have preferred retirement to filling public stations, with the loss of independence, of honorable feelings, and purity of character. It is impossible for any eminent man at this time to hold any public station with comfort to himself at least, while attempts are made to control his -official condact, and ceorce his private judgment. The hope is in the future. The people may be for a time misled, but they retrace their steps when conviction opens upon them. Let all the eminent men in this country, whether in Congress or in the State Legislatures, discard jealousies, and unite in producing a reform which shall remit in placing an "honest man in tho Presidential Cbair» when the time of the present Chief Magistrate £Jmll have expired. Let the peopie, «ttd not tbe Kitchen Cabinet, choose bis successor, and all will go well.

MOM THE NEW YOa* DAII.Y ADVIETISIK.

J*- WASHINGTON, OCT, 9, 1833. To my old friend, Mr. Dtoigki, A". Y. D*i. Adr. We have just got the election news from Phila delphy, and I and the Gineral aint over and above tickled by it after all, seein that our folks promised us to get the hull on't, and Girard't many too. But I tell him we'll git that next year nnd as we have now got the deposits out of the Bank, it's glory enufT lor one spell.

I got a letter from Zekel Bigelow t'other day, who I see is pretty busy now in Wall street, and will soon take the shine off the most of tho lookers there. He says he and the rest of tho brokers got nockcd all aback by squire Biddle agreein to take the branch notes from the deposit banks, instead of lettin them banks send them away west and south themselves, and which would cost them or the Government about 3 per cent., unless they let the brokers do it for a trifle less. This move of squire Biddle seems to ptixsle the brokers considerable and Zekel says this" aint the first time the squire has trod on the toes of the brokers. And as Zekel i? now turned broker himself, be don't seem to like the •quire as well as he used to do but he thinks the squire cant' stand it long, and that he only does it now because we have a little mony loft in his bank, and soon as we tuke thut awny, and which we ared»ing now as fast as we can.thnt then the squire will say he ha* nothing more to do with the Government, and let ev'ry bank take

Z^^W^^to'take and Collect for nolhin. He is however plagy wrathy with the deposit banks in New York makin mony io plenty there, for Mr. Taney, our new Sccretnry of tho Treasury, has tell'd em to use up in New York, pretty much all the Government money they collect there-—and they collect pretty much tho hull on't—and so Zekel thinks there will bo trouble

away west, where they haint got as many banks and as much money n* they have in Wall street,

anJ io ho

,j man ".kin IU, the usual form, I wn* obliged to use a r~ P* cent, which the

thinks of takin a turndown there

Tbey haint got much to do now in the way of their office, and we make em attend to other matters. We're got a rale sharp little fellow to keep an eye out on squire Biddle, and got bim in the bank too. So that the squire can't get round him no way. That report he made to the Gineral t'other day, was nigh upon ns good ns my bank report. In some things it wn* much better, for my "report" only tol'd folk* what I saw, and what I know,—but his goes a trifle furtherit tells the Gineral pretty things all about what he did'nt see and what he dou't know, and that's more than most folks can do and gives things a plagy curious lawyer's twist, that help* us along considerable. I suppose now the squire will answer this, and tell nil about it and we was plagy fraid he'd do it before the election in Philadelphy. But it wont do him no good now we have had the first lick at him, and that the General says, is tbe best part of the battle. I and tbe General was lookin over the accounts that I had taken when I was examining the bank, and comparing them with this cute little fellow's report, and once and a while tbe Gineral would snort out I tell you. And say* he, Major, if by tfny chance we lose Amos Kindle, we must git that little District Attorney here with usr—he's a pursier, aint ho? That he is, says I Gineral but I'm a afraid, sAys I, that the squire will pntxle him, and us too, when he comes out with bis reply. ..

But there is one thing. Major, says the&incral, that I dont see how Biddle can get round, and that is, how he dares to take upon himself to do what only could be done by the Directors. Look at the charter, there it is us plain as A, B, U.— ffe wa* right to do a single thing, unless the Directors are all present, and agree to it. Well, says I, Gineral, that is a puztler and yet all the

bank folks say he does right and its more their bactnoss than ourn And, says I Gineral,since I os«sto think on't,and tbe notion never struck me before,but I begin now to believe that squire Biddie is a rale Jackson man. Why,says he. Major, you area# craij as a mad rooster—how can you make that out!

The idea of pleasing so many thousand person* almost turned my mental gratification to vanity. I can assure you it was with some difficulty I could prevent the few sparks of it (which mp't^pf uir possess) from gaining the asccndancy.
