Text Appearing Before Image:
ars per annum, re-quiring the constant employment of overthree thousand sailors, as brave as everdwelt on the ocean, and who would heas efficient if summoned to the gun-deck. The cities of Detroit and Buffalohave more tons of shipping afloat thanare owned in the four planting states ofNorth and South Carolina. Georgia, atidAlabama; and these are but two of theseven cities along the lakes. It is esti-mated that there are on the western wa-ters eight hundred and fifty steamboats,and that 13,440 persons are engas^edin navigation. These are some of therandom statistics that occur to me ; butwe must remember that the statistiesof 1S44 will not serve as a basis of cal-culation in 1847. The gro\>*th of thatregion far outstrips the wildest imagina-tion of the poet, who has said :—•• • A thou.:aud years si-arce serve to form a state. We behold them in our day leap-ins: from our western forests into thebosom of this confederacy, almost be-fore we can give them a habitation anda name.
