From the Commercial Advertiser. Tlie following communication is received from a correspondent in the Western District. The subject on which he writes is deeply interesting to the City and the State of New-Vork and we hope it may arrest the early and serious attention of the Legislature at their next meeting THE CANAL. The state and city of New-York are highly interested in the proposed Canal from Albany to Lake Eiie and every consideration demands their attention to the commencement of effective operations. Every citizen of the state is concerned in tins thing, and the united claims ot the agricultural, manufacturing, and commercial interests of this stati- call loudly upon its Legislature.

Our proud sea-port and prosperity claims the protection afforded by this Canal arid as it is the language of nature, it is rtresistiole. Divine Providence, in granting to these states this single, this only passage from the Eastern to the Western waters, has located this Canal has given to our agt4 the of effecting the object, and holds out to us the high honors of its acquisition. From Georgia to Nova Scotia, no other breach, no other chasm can be found, broken by nature through the chain of uplands, by which to unite the commerce of the caster.) and western parts of the country. It is idleness to question the propriety of a msasure so strongly pointed out by nature's self. To resist to it is to shut our eyes against ourselves, and voluntarily to squander away our lijgiest means ol usefulness, and our dearest and local privileges.

Procrastination must be attended with every possible disadvantage to the state, and in the event of delay, the city of New-York has arrive 1 at the meridian of her consequence, and will probably, by the ri.ie of Montreal. New-Orleans and Baltimore, sink out of comparative view. Preparations are making by our own citizens to turn the harbors on our own coast of Lake Ontario into commercial sea ports grounded on a foreign trade to the anadas, and the progress of those places an onlv be checked but by a commence ment of this Canal, the route of which is through the country south of that lake. Vt a future day, a line oi population 200 i .1 I V. miles in lenath upon mat lane, wouiu ue prompted by the all powerful motives of nterest to oppose the Canal, and the legislature would be compelled to abandon the project, or to sacrifice the interests of that portion ol our citiaens.

Anu Desiues, after those inland ports are well establish ed. and well supplied with all the means of navigation down the Canadian streams, the Western District at large will be quite indifferent about either the Canal or the city of New-York. I am a citizen ot that district, and am confident our trade from as far east as the west line ot uneiaa couuj --v a iy, musi iuu uyin of the St. Lawrence. Indeed, it has al- r.dv to take that that course.

The countries on Lake Erie, the state of Ohio and the Northern Territory are at present most accessible to the bt. Lawrence ana Mississippi markets. If New-York wants their trade, which it usually has had, and which will increase with surprising rapitii- tv. it must open this navigation to receivaj and husband it; otherwise tne commerce of the Ohio state and Territories, the western parts of New-York and Pennsylvania, will be exclusively diverted. The Sus-quehannah river has its source in three navigable branches within our state, which spread themselves in the southern parts of the Western District, and embrace an extent of 100 miles of the country; and large quantities of lumber and produce are annually shipped down those branch-oH tr.

Hi Thpsaneake in the present state of navigation. It is presumed the city of Baltimore cannot always be msensiDie to their highest interest, and will wiinm a lew years remove all obstructions to an inter-rniirt! unnn this river, which must neces sarily deprive New-York of much of its nrpnt business and upon the principle that water descends, the trade of Vermont and the northern part of our state must go to Montreal. Thus the state oi iew must hr reduced from her proud as nn'tnt of commerce to a level with, or even beneath her sister states That an enlightened people will always wear out life and substance in wading thrnnirh TTiud and snows across hills and vallies, for the novelty of seeing the North River, is repugnant to common en. 4 it an the of Tt II. 3, THE FISHERIES.
