The President, in his Message, returning the last bill to the Senate, ha* signified, that, if a port ofentry wap established on the Wabash, it would bring an appropriation to improve this river within the rule that he h«s laid down for the government bf his own action in such cases. 1 consider it due to myself, and not disrespectful to the "President, to state, that I differ from him on this subject and without bein^able to perceive either the wisdom ©r tie justice of this rule, I have determined, (rom the necessities of the case, to conform to it, so far as to ask the Senate to pa6S bills establishing a port of entry aty afayette,nnd of appropriating money to improve the rivej*, and hope that Hon. ftaoators will look at.thejuMicc of this application, and give it theirsanction.

At the last session of Congress the bill /d»trt»piLovinc tlitf. navigation oftiie Wabash tvus laid before the Piesid.ent.pn the, 28th ol June, two days before Congress adjourned, and on ^he 30ih of that month, Ihe last day of the session, wr received a veibal messnge through our Committee, informing us that the President of ihe United States h*) approved and signed all the bills passed at the then present session of Congfess, except that for improving the navigation of the WHbush and ns thnt bill involved a question of importance, it was retained for further consideration. In r.is message, returning this bill to the Senate a ftrv days ago, the President slated, that he had not been able to satisfy his mfnd that the bill ought to pass: and he goes on to state his objections against extravagant appropriations for internal improvement, nnd he argues over again .the case of the Mavsville road bill, but says not a word as to the merits or demerits of the Wabash bill, against which 1 contend that no sound reifon can be produced, diawn Irom the •Constitution or practiceof this Government from its foundation nor am 1 able to discover any necessary connections between the Maysville road bill and the Wabash bill. The former provides for a local object, the construction of a road from one point to another, within aSt:«te the latter provides mear^to improve an important river, the line of demarcation between two StaUs a reserved public highway for all the people of the United Slates, as I shall presently show.

The feeble state of my health will compel me to condense Mhat I defircd to say at this time in relation to the subject.

Bf impfovin|j these rapids, and the completion o( our canal, we will open a water communication from New York to New Orleans, the shortest and the best that can ever be constructed across this conliHeut. 1* such a work not worthy the attention of the General Government, or is the door of appropriation now to be closed on the application of Indiana and Illinois for aid to complete this important public workt The

waters leading into the

(o (he ir)habitantsof

the said Territory

citizens of the United,States, and

her State that may be admit

ted into this Confederacy withoj|jLauy taxj impost or duty therefor." By an act of 2d of March, 1827, Congress granted land to aid in constructing a canal, to connect, at navigable points, the water* of the Wabaeh with those ol

Lake Erie, and reserved the right to the United States totrnnsport troops and munition of war on the canal free of any charge. This Canal is now in rapid progress of construction. It lies within the limits of two States, and imbraces what was the principle carrying place between the Mississippi and the St. Lawrence, at the time of forming, the act of cession & ordinance above quoted. The U. Stales has reserved the right to U9e both our river anil canal free, of any charge. ..Can it be unreasonable or unconstitutional, to call on the United Slntes to aid in improving the navigation or this river?

At the point where this Appropriation is to be expended, the Wabash is the line of demarcation between Indiana and Illinois, Each State has made an appropriation to aid in improving the rapids, but these young Slates have not the ability to complete this work. Indiana ha? contracted a debt, for the prosecution of the canst), of near half a million of dollafs it may be necessary to extend this debt to double thai amount this year and our people very naturally, and I think very properly, look lo the General Government,the great landholder^ the West,to improve those Rapid* with tjbe joint &nd* of the nation, «*it will evidently benefit the whole.

The State of lud.ana pays info the U. States Treasury, as a tax or duty on goods imported from foreign markets, and consumed by her citiz?n*,as large a sum ns any State in the Union of the same population, besides what hei citizcns pay for the public lands bought for cultivation. She has no harbors to improve, except that on Trail Creek,on Lake Michigan rjp breakwaters, to draw millions from the Treasury in their construction. She asks nothing but aid to improve the ifavigation of her river,which the United States have reserved the light to navigate free of any charge. No session of Congress passes but other States are' p^vided with money.to improve their rivers. The

James, Savannah,'

Red river, and Cumberland, with a long list of other smaller streams, that 1 will not take the time of the Senate to rend, have been improved by the General Govcrnment.

During the.session of Congress of 1831— a bill pawed and was approved, authorizing the improving of the Monor.gahela and other rivers, to points where there was no ports of entry, MI id the Globe, in apologizing /or that approval, sajs: "If ihe pur-

poses contemplated by Congress can be ^accomplished, aod the three rivers mentioned made navigable to the points in 'in question, then ports of entry will of 'fcourse he established at the head of navi'gation." I »«k why not be thus liberal with the Wabash? That river is larger than the Monongahela waters a more extensive territory of the finest soil in the world, with a numerous population to be

millions are applied %a hnproVing river* antamall •tteams east of the raouatwio.--lf but 10, $, or 50 miles long, you caH them rivets, and we Improve them. 1 do cot mention this in a spirit of* complaint, but to shew the contrast. Weh^ve /mr 500 miles af Wabash, 1000 miles of Ohio, and 2000 miles of Mississippi: theSe, we think, present equal .claims to attention, and 1 feel it to be my duty to urge them on the attention of Congress, All other rii vers have been improved except the Wabash, while bills for that river are vetoed or withheld. Sow,is this necessary, is it "just, or proper, and do those in power think that my constituents will remain forever silent under such circumstances? I have recently been taught that a system is practued to keep men silent that incline to speak out. When Congress adjourned last summer, 1 addressed a circular to my constituents, informing them what had been Jone for their benefit, nr.d how much was left undone, but said nothing flattering of the treatment thtf Wabash bill had met with,and concluded by advising the people to correct these wiongs through the ballot box.

After the publication of my circular, the Globe, a newspaper published 111 this city, devoted three or four of its long columns to abusing me, because I had dared to address my constituents. But 1 do not fe 1 injured by the attack of the Globe: the wrU ter in that paper must establish a character for truth and veracity among the people of Indiafta before he need expect his word to be taken against one that they have known long, and known well. The writer of the article in the Globe has mistaken his man the press, nor n»other power that can be brought to bear upon me, can in* timidale or keep me silent whilenfethe interest of Indiania is at stake and In this cate of an appropriation to improve the Wabash river, I contend that justice ha? not been done her. 1 do not intend, Mr. President, lo charge the Chief Magistiate Wjth intentional injustice, but only to say, that he has acted under a mistaken apprehension of the fact? which has worked injustice to my constituents.

A President, or any other public officer, is but a transient being, here to day, gone to-morrow but the principles of justice on which our Government should be administered are immutable, and Will endure in all times to come. Every public man owes a heavy responsibility to his constituents, and I would have felt unworthy the confidence reposed in nie, if 1 had remained silent on a subject so deeply interesting to those that 1, in part^ have the honor to represent here.

The term of service of our present Chttef Magistrate ?s drawing to a close.— What he has done, he hn« done. It will* go down to posterity, and form political character and God knows I would nat, if I could, strip a laurel from his brow. But this subject of improving our rivers cimnot re»4 here the jwopte^ho^ld take that matte!iflto their oVKhands, atid in sebcting a successor lo the present Chief Magistrate, be/on lh-y cast their ro/«, ascertain whether he is for or against internal improvement. No, sir, that ii too broad a term it can be construed to mean any thing or nothing, or explained away.— The voters should ascertain whether candidates are for or against improving our rivers, and no one holding the opposite doctrine need expect one-fourth of the votes in the valley of the Mississippi.

I hope the resolution, and the one for establishing the port of entry at La fayette, will be adopted, and that both Congress and the President will agree that the General Government should aid in improving the navigation of the Wabash for 1 am unwilling to believe, without .more evidence than isnpw before i$r| (at there is a disposition in either to pS ,.4t it.

Mr. WEBSTER asked for. lh$ reading of the resolution which having been read.

Mr. WEBSTER said he had asked for the reading of the resolution, became he had not understood whether the subjectmatter under consideration was, as i^ then appeared to be, simply an appropriation to improve the navigation of the river Wabash, or whether it was the other resolution submitted by the gentleman from Indiana, (Mr. TIITON) instructing the Committee on Commerce to inquire into the expediency of tslablishing a port of entry on that river. That other resolution was for the purpose of doin^ away, as he understood, the constitutional objections to an appropriation for the improvement contemplated. If the last named resolu Uon had been called up, it was his intention to say something on the subject.— Whether it be constitutional for Congress to make an improvement on a particular river, or whether, in order to make that improvement constitutional, a port of entry must first be established on the river, was a subject on which he should take the liberty to express his views at a proper time. With regard to the resolution under consideration, he had no objection to its adopliHK He had no more doubt of the right ol Congress to improve the navigation of the Wabash, than tonpproprate money for the Delaware Breakwater, for the improvement of Boston harbor, to erect fortifications, to improve a harbor in Lake Erie, or to hiiild a lighthouse at the month of the Balixe. He thought so at the last session of Congress, and thought sostill. If the honorable gentleman thought CongreSk had better pass another law to make the improvement be had io view, he would not object to the measure but he had no hopes of the passage of another law on the subject, with better success than the one of the last year, until there was more unanimity in the public couicils» When the other resolution came up for consideration, be should take the liberty to express bis views folly in relation to it.

In case of a war with any of the nations, it is to them chiefly that the United States must look forsfcrvice and honor performed and won through manifold perils, and by an exertion of admirable skill, as well as intrepidity. Let Congress, then, if not geuerous or munificent, be at least equitable and politic—let us seud such champions forth,satisfied and animated with substantial proofs of our sense of their due and desert—convinced that we appreciate as we ought the! value of their noble func tions and the fcfficiencjr of their peculiar achievements,

Rowan, when driven from his own country for political -cause*, came to America, and took up his residence in Wilmington about the year 1795. He resided here about six years, and ii well remembered by many of our citizens for his ccccntricities^ind imposing personal appearance. When the peace of Amiens occurred, he feturned to-Europe, and received the pardon of the King. He-has since resided in Ireland, and, until within a few years, has kept up a regular correspondence and interchange of kindness with his friends in this vicinty. In his splendid mansion in Dublin, there was an apartment in which he had placed the furniture he had used while he resided in Wilmington to this apartment he gave the name of Wilmington and some of our townsmen who have visited Dublin, were invariably taken to this apartment, in which he was accustomed to say thai he spent his happiest hours. Hi* "hospitality to his Wilmington friends was unbounded, llis house was their home his purse and his time were at their service. Hamilton Rowan was a man ol family and of large fortune.
