THE FALLS OF THE OHIO.
The House concurrent resolution for Congressional legislation looking to reducing the extravagant rolls for passing around the Falls of the Ohio, at Louisvile, coming up in regular order-
Mr. WOLCOTT understood the canal around the Falls to be private property, and could, therefore, see no propriety in passing this resolution.
Mr. BELLAMY suggested that the proper way would be to memorialize Congress to put the canal on this side of the river.
On motion by Mr. WOLCOTT, the resolution was referred to a special committee of three, which the CHAIR makes to consist of Messrs Wolcott, Bradley, and Belamy.
