The hdl for an act in relation to the money a;pr piiated to improve the navigation of the (treat Wabash rvev, by an act approved the 19th January 1829, passed the house of representatives, the 6th mst., atid needs now only the signature of the governf or to become a law. strong opposition was made to the bill in the house of rvpi ecntatives, as well as in the senate. Am attempt was mde in tack house to divert the appropu.aion from its original object, and apply it to vards defraying the current expenses of the g'ncrnmwt; sufficient strength, iimvever, was found with thoe who were determined to sustain the character of t'ae state tor consiency and good faith, to pass the bid by a respectable m oority. After the passage of the bill, Mr. Aodersqo of Wab ash, gave notice of his intention ' to introduce a bill to authorize August Tugaw of V"a!ias!i county, to electa dam on til bar at ColFee Island, fv?r the dovible parpose of improving the navigation of the river io a very important pr.rucular, and affording facilities for th erection of machinery. Air. Atvlersoa observed that, in accordance with the earnest wishes of his constituents, he should have introduced similar hill at an earlier period of the session, bat far the wan: of the report of the United itaos engineer. J. 1j. Smith, upon this and other obstructions to navigation in the Coarse of the river, to which he intended to npjvvil in support of the measure contemplarvti by his hill. The report has horn recently procured and prescribes, a? the most p nopriate means ot 'improving the navigation at this point, the erection of a dam from the Illinois side of the river to the western side of coffee island, so as to prodi.ee the rertuisite depth of water in the bavon or chan- j in I the eastern side of the Ulaad, which 1 seems intended for the main stream, bv authorizing the erection of this dan) by individod enterprise, an improv ement will be cfTected without cost to the state, which vol render the navigation of the river at this point compartivcly easy and safe in low tagr-s of water. According to the report of the United States eng-neer befve re fen ed to, the expense of co np!e iog the neces. an improvements on t'.r.s rive'- from Delphi to its mouth.
