Ih /Aw AfWwr a/ /3U AkUwm JkMp Ma* Mmttut: Da*a flmi On fo# ieat foy of Bun nfonda foe aitiaena of Indiana residtog en the Ho* of th* Wabeah and Crte Canal, praaantad a memorial te the House of Reprcaeotadvee of <m Oeneral Assembly whiab met trltlfa reeeptlon alike «► worthy of the Hooee and of the aoeaalon, nod which wa* aa laeult to foe men who praaantad it.

It nm* no ordinary ooonaton.

Years ago, when reek law legislation had sunk million# of money, borrowed from confldiog creditor#, in fragmentary and worthleee work*of public improvement; when, by aeooaeary reeoll, the Sute waa hopelessly bankrupt and stained by practical repudiation; when an ladianian eenld not go abroad without encountering the acorn which a commercial people never fail to express Against such delinquencies; when her people and her government were powerleM for relief, then, in the dark set boor of Indiana’* fioanefo! dletraea, the seme people living from and to end of the seme line of Improvement, who, on the drat day of thla mouth, met with ae unworthy e rebuff from their own Boprooonttdvm, at great expense of Uau, and labor, and money, preoented to e much higher roprooaafoMw* body—to the Congreaeof the (Jolted Suteo—e memorial, t umprouaiy and variously aimed; by which memo* rial they asked of foe General Government a large grant of the pnbile land* for foe completion of this mine Canal. The Congrasa of the United Sute* did not Indefinitely pompeoe that memorial Neither branch of Congraem presumed so

to treat a respectful and truthful atatem; fiot*, oonoludfag with a raapectful petition. On th# other hand the General Government adjudged that the enterprise of the petition sra, and the magnitude of th* work at auke, merited ail tkat the memorallat* had aekad of It and granted in full the prayer of the oaemortal Such waa th* importance and value of this grunt made by the United States to th* State of Indian*, in reward of th* labors, for that purpose, of the people on the line of thla Canal, that th* unfinished Canal, together with the land* ao granted for it* completion, were immediately taken by th* creditor* of th* State aa an equivaItnt for nearly one half of her entire indebted* n***, whilst theSute, with her burthen Xb lightened and Inspired thereby, with renewed hope and courage, simultaneously resumed the payment of th* residue. Thus, by the strenuous exertion* of a portion of her people wboee right* are now treated by her legislators with contempt, wa* the now prosperous Sute, In the hour of her adversity, redeemed from repudiation and disgrace and placed on the roll of solvent and debt-paying State#, and thence-forward aaabled te advance in wealth, population and improvement, aide by aide with the most prosperous and honored Hut** of

the Confederacy.

Thia Wabash and Erie Canal, and the lands so granted for Its com letlon, having been uken by the creditors of the Sute at so nigh a price, th* Sute waa for years careful to scrupulously guard the Canal against injury or depreciation by proposed rival lines of Improvement. For several years In succession application waa mad# for the charter of a Railroad running psrallel with th# most productive portion of Ui# Canal, and close to Its line, but the Legislature of the Sute as often rejected the application, and an swered that having received a large and valuable consideration for the Canal, th* Sute could not In good faith destroy Its us# or depreciate its value; and this was the repeated and Invariable answer that all applicants for parallel Railroad charter* received at th# hands of th# State as long as under the then existing Constitution ape rial Railroad charters were necessary for the con-

sti ucllo i of Railroads in this Sute.

Rut in process of time, a new Constitution waa adopted by tit* Sute, and under that Constitution a general Railroad law waa enacted, under which, without further permimlon from the Leglslature, upon the formation of Association* under rules prescribed, such companies ware etherised to construct Railways anywhere in the

riUte.

Then and not l>cfore, and under thia general law, the State did, without intend ng it, unwittingly ami indlr. oily what two successive Legislatures had per latently and by overwhelming majorities refused to do directly, and a railway was constructed parallel and In close proximity to the most productive portion ef thia Canal, from the Ohio Bute line one hundred and fifty miles

downwards.

In the meantime the BUtee' creditors, who had taken and paid a foil consideration for the Canal, had at an additional expense to their.selvea of near one million of dollar*, a half million of which remains yet unpaid, gone on and completed the works, at least ae far aa to open it th* whole length to narigation. Without forther reelule I beg leave to atk ker* what, this day, are tb* net result* of the whole arrangement, so far aa the Canal and th* debt charged upon it are concerned, both to th* But* and to tb# holders of th* Canal 7 I need aot answer th# question. The spumed memo rials contain* the aoawer at length. Our adveree legislation, however unwittingly done, superadded to th* adverse Providences of God, during a succession of years, haa reduced the revenue* of this great werk to bankruptcy, and the work ileelf to the verge of destruction. I say thia ia a great work, ft matters aot who sneers. For it matters not how unreliable the navigation of portions of tbia work may have been hitherto, or whether it has been defectively constructed or badly managed, the character and th* magnitude of the work and th* interest* involved all aUmp it a* a great work. In tU character it la a cheap and eminently a People’s Line of Transportation, on which every man may launch his own boat and ohoo** his own

market.

It is eminently adapted to the tranaportatioo to market of the heavy »Uplcs of the Bute and of the country at large—the product* of th* forest, the field, the mine and the quarry. It* aarrew Hood has, ia the daya of it* prosperity, when Heaven rewarded th* toil of the husbandman wl'h abundant crops, borne on its way to diaunt market# not lass than four million bushel# of grain, the prodnot of our own industry in a single year. In iu magnitude It stretches it* length near four hundred miles and through twenty-two counties, embracing one-fourth of the popaUtioa and uxable property of the Bute, and with iu continuation in the Bute of Ohio unites the water# of the Northern Lake* with thoee of our Western Rives* at points near five hundred mile* distant by it* own route. It ia a water line of transportation, the continuation of an interior water Hae of mighty proportions. extending from the circumference to the center of the continent. If th* But* ahall insure iu maintenance intact, iu capacity and influence will in all time modify and regulate th* railway tariffb cm foe heavy staples of almoet the whole are* of the But* and ao aav* million* to the strong-armed tiller# of the soil. I need net here any that Canal truntpertntien by here* power sow bemg •up'reeded by steam, very much cheaper, l# only ahemt half theactnal seat ef railway transportation eat arttele* adapted te iu earring*. And whe shall Hull pro gram mrtl presume t* demy that if this work is swtotoed it will set aeon be navigated by steam? Whe, may 1 ash, but ignorant men and amntear politician# pretend to limit fo* iatnsme* of thi* work to the eonntlee through whieh it rum*? The ftnMram of the United Btotee did net cemridar this week focal in its ehnraetar, and ao statesman ever did or ever will psensnnea it a foeal week. 1 repeat it, anti If meed be cam deaneawunte it, that every RUfrond erceatngiterimmtiMpmwiiel ^hnW hWim fotil^ IMI ^^^1 eW — WIBM fOrM VwMMp •uW MBS uBQ of public sentiment, every other Railroad ef any magnitude ia the Btote wtll he eempeUati fo e greater er foe* degree fo modify ito tariff on foe •tapfoeef the Btote hy Ito intis mu. if Ito whole line ahall only he praawvedae ante give shippen ueeeittheehetee of aaertharu er southern entfotfer their product*.

I ean aot and will not be-

lev* it.

But, do they presume n w to talk about their fear of involving the Btate, ae if the State had not already, before they cam# into office, been involved? Her present involvment it undeniable. The proof is patent. But whoever heard of the Btote being made legally responsible? Of what creditor haa any of the states of thia Union ever stood In fear? It la simply a matter of good fiiith. State honor, and public morality, either towards our own dtixena or strangers; and the memorial unoontradicted, though unheard and unheeded,

coo tains the whole oaae.

And now, if danger threatens our honor or our inter set*, let our public men not torn their back* It is the voice of right and justice alone which this petition raises, and that vole* mast and will be heard. Member* may stifi* it now, but it wilt only be to bear It In more impatient and im

perativ# tones er* long.

The same rule of right ia lor States as for men, sod it cannot bo safely transgressed by either. The avenging hand of justice will sooner orl* ter visit the violation* of the role by either, and her impartial band ia now upon us. Wa already feel it, for incontinent legislation, advene to the intereata of tbia Canal, and doing indirectly or unwittingly that which we refuted to do directly. That was not leas a sin against ourselves than against the present proprietors of the Canal' We have once wiped away the stain of bad faith and repudiation; it remains for ua not to disgrace the Sute, or the name of our Country, by a relapse

into any of onr early errors.

There is an t4p«n:r »f this question, that relating to the ri^M* of t h.iee who ^aveus a foil con sideration for thinOnii*!. w!>i<;h consideration baa (or the present t ul< d, mxinlv by our acta, which I do not presume here to distmae The consideration of that aspeetdoo* not however imply either the taking of the Canal back, or any serious burtben upon the Btate. I know and have full faith that too people only need to be informed on this subject to be prepared to do righ', and that iu due time, if their Representatives meet the present crisis, all matters involved will be honorably «etIt can not be doubted that there ie a bright foture before A nr peonle and all their public works. The Btate ia in her youth. The pest ten rears have worked miracle* in all her borders. Who shall limn the n**it ten to minor wonders? Boon what appear* a burthen now will be ao no longer. It only rem iiin for 11.4 to be careful to do right, to pro-terve the repu'ation we once lost and again found, and the laws of physical progress will Impel n.4 onward. There is, too, a bright foture to our public men who shall prove

true tothemselve* xnd their country.

It ia not remarkable that loremorit in hostility to any relief by the Le<i-lature to the Cansl is to be found, of all (he railnvtd* in the Btate, t. e one which ia to gain the moat hy its destruction. Considering that the railroad m question was built in violation of t>>e rghu of the Canal and is owned chlefiy out of the Bute iu opposition to even naked legislation tending to strengthen the Canal interest is not unnatural, hut I have yet to learn that railrosd corporatio. * *re pet inatitutions with an Indiana Legisln’urr, >r that lawyers in their employ are safe Si»t# counsellors where their rivals aie interested. That this particular load prob 44. a'o have means to snend tobuy aC.mal nny *ce«unt lor the apparent intimate relations between prominent men connected with the road and others ala>nt the Capital,but does not fully account tor the phenomenon of a man late high in offle,. m the St tie, of commanding talents and n<* bnle influence, using those talents and tb-tt i>if|ti,-nce *< once to destroy the Canal and the faith of he S'.tie which has honored him, pledgtd as P W against its des-
