River commerce fades as New York Canal lanes idle
The Albany Journal laments the commerce on the New York Canal and reports boats laying up by the score as the great western communication channels face stagnation. The piece notes widespread idle fleets and fear for river trade through autumn. The report also covers speeches by Mr Webster in Cincinnati and public notices from Boston and Baltimore on various topics.
