S. on the loth of July, pending an amendment of the committee relative to the proposed im provement of the Hennepin canal, Mr. Ingalls (Kansas) advanced the propo sition that the benefit arising from cheap transportation of wheat inures alone to the consumer, and that the pro ducer gains nothing. Surprised at the proposition , Senator John II. Mitchell of Oregon replied at length, from which we extract as follows: Now, this can not be correct, because the price of wheat in the* Liverpool market is regu lated not by the price of transportation in this country but from the competi tion from other countries, Australia, India, Russia and western Asia. Ami 1 can. pel haps, better than in any other way illustrate my views by discussing the question witn reference to the pro posed appropriations in this bill for the improvement of the rivers and harbors of tbe Pacific Northwest. The subject of appropriations is then reviewed, after which Mr. Mitchell says: The area drained by the Colum bia river, we are told by the report of the Chief of engineers on our desks, is estimated at 245,000 square miles; an area he correctly states, larger than all the New England aud Middle states, with Maryland, Virginia, and west Virginia thrown in all; all these states Where the best of meats can always be found Mrs. H.
