Who West Convention at IVEOMphis.

• Illinois, 21 Louisiana, 16
During the day, Mr. Calhoun took occasion to
.! , •gnard hiMself against the interpretation of consid.
• ering everything constitutional that may be called
"' National. He said that no work strictly speaking,
could derive constitutionality from its nationality.
There was no nationality beyond the Constitution.
"Bin," he added with emphasis, "the Mississippi.
river and its principal tributaries are to be 'regarded
as inland seas, and they are as much entitled to
appropriations by Congress for their improvement,
'as the harbors, bays, and coast of the Atlantic."
Notwithstanding this protest, tho convention
throughout its session seemed to treat nationality
as one of the chief tests of constitutionality.
Ork§aturday morning,faftet'a le* unimportant
rettoliitions were passed, the nurneraus committees
began, to submit their, reports, which proved to be
.generally very voluminoue. The convention sub
tnitted to the reading of one or two, but it was,
soon ordered that 'only the titles and resolutions
should be.read, and that the body be omitted. In
this way alt were speedily got through, and then
the convention began to take up each singly for
discussion and amdmlMent. At this juncture every
one wall appalled. It would be impossible' to get
• through in less than a week with the , reeding and
considering of all these reports, with the thousand
amendments that would be offered, and with hear.
ins the thousand speeches that would be made.
It was subsequently determined to refer the
whole matter to a special committee of one from
eitch,State; and a.committee was accordingly op
pointed, with Governor Jones ,of Tennessee, en
chairman.
On Saturdaz, the following Report wee made
hy this committee:
1. Resolved, That the reports of the
various committees, and such documents
accompanying them as the supervising
conimittee.may select, be printed.
h. Resolved, That the communication
between the Gulf of Mexico and the in
terior, afforded by the navigation of the
Mississippi anti Ohio rivers, and their
principal tributaries, is indispensable to
the defence of the country in tune of war
and essential also to its commerce.
3: Resolved, That the improvement
and preservation of the navigation of those.
great rivers are objects as strictly Nation—
al as any other preparation for the.defence
of the country, and. that such improve. -
; melds are deemed by the convention im
' practicable by the States or individual en
terprise,, and call for appropriations of
' money by the General Government.
4: Resolved, That 'the deepening of
. the mouth: of .the Mississippi so as to pass
ships of the target class, cost what it may,
is a work worthy, of . the nation, and
would greatly promote the general pros
perity.
5. Resolved, That if the policy of re
inforcing our navy with steamers be
adopted, the Western waters are proper
sources .ot. supply, as they abound in iron,
the best material Fur their construction,
• and also in lead and copper, .important
materials for munitions of war, provisions
allbeing cheap, and the skill requisite
for their construction and navigation be
ing ample in this region, which already
possesses the largest steam cominercial
marine in the _world. •
6. Resolved, That the project of can
necting the Mississippi river, with the
lakes of the North, by a ship canal, and
that 'with the Atlantic ocean, is a mess :
ore worthy of the enlightened -considera.
tiorrol Congress.
- 7. Resolved, Thou the intercourse be•
tween the Gulf of Mexico and the At•
lantic quest ought to be preserved unito•
paired, awl that ample military and naval
defences and additional' light •hOuses and
beacons should be,establislied along the
coast of the Gull of Mexico, at the most
eligible points for that purpose.
S. &lilted, :that (be - Gulf and. Lake
...ogstC,ce . e 'ireater in extent than the At
lantic siaboed, that the interests to he de
-I.ntled in .ono qaarter% 'to e quite as
impor
tapj,vrttl . altogether as National as those
in the, tether., ;cod. that the expenditures
requiied fur the proper defences of the
Gulf and the Lakes.will fall far short of.
what has been freely voted fur• the coast
defences to the Atlantic, , • •
_ .
9. .Resolved,- That Congress establish
a National armory and foundry at some
point on the Western Waters at as early
a period as practicable.
10. Resolved, That the marine hospi
tals or the Western, and Southwestern
Waters, whose construction how bees com
menced or authorised by Congress, ought
to beproseCtited • . to completion' with the
least possible delay: '
11, Resolved, That the mail service of
the West and South• requires-great
provement in speed and. regularity, and
particularly on the Westerri waters; that
measures ought to he taken also for the
prompt extension. of 'magnetic tele-,
,graph into or through the Mississippi val
ley. . - •
12. Resolved, That , millions of.'acres
of the public' domain, lyino. on the Mis
sissippi river; arid on its tributaries,-nowl
worthless fur: the purpose of cultivation, •
might be.claimed by•throwing up eon bank
, mi;nts so as,to pi event oVertlow e ' and that

delegates to endeavor to proolre charters

15. Resolved, That a s •many of the
railroads projected may pass throng - 1i the
public.dortiam, this convention would re•
syectively urge on the consideration of
emigres§ the equity - of granting ) .- the right
of way and alternate sectioro; of the pub
lie lands to aid in their consti action, this
being no more than a fait remuneration
paid by the Government as proprietor fue
the increased Value imparted by such roads
to the remaining
public hinds.
16. Resolved, That efficient 'Steps.
should bt Lketi by the, General Govern
ment to remove and prevent the' recur
rence of the obstructions in the St. Louis
