as may be neccssary, and leave a sufficient sum of bet
earnings to pay the indebtedness assumed by the State,
in 1878, the period when the canal bonds fall due.—
Much perhaps can be raid in favor of this change. On
the other band it may be a question whether the interest

HWA*r UNTO ASD STATE ROADS.
The policy of using Swamp Lands for State Roads
was Inaugurated by an act or tbo Legislature, approved
February 12th, 1859 ; aDd by subsequent acts aiid repeated appropriations this may now be regarded as tbe
.nettled policy of tbe Slate. 1'he parpese for which tbes*
lands, amounting to nearly six million acre&—were ceded
to tbe State, as expressed in the act of Congress approved September 28, 1850, was to enable ber " to construct tbo necessary lerees and drains to reclaim tbe
samo
and the net of ceation expreraly provides that
tho prococds of said lands whether for side or direct
appropriations In-kind, shall be applied exclusively, ae
far as accessary, to the purpose of reclaiming said lands
by means of the levees and drains aforesaid." By an act
of the 1-egitdat'ire approved June 28th, 1851, the State
accepted this grant according to tbe conditions contained therein, and she expreaely declares in this act of acceptance. " thot all tbe money received from the sale of
said lands shall be and remain a fond for tbe purpose of
reclaiming said lands, in conformity to the provisions of
the grant"
without questioning the right of the 8tate so as to
construe tbe provisions of these acts as te apply tbe
swamp lands to tbe pnrpoees of constructing roads, or
the wisdom or utility of so applying them, 1 am clearly
of tho opinion that tbe practice which has latterly prorailed, to a very great extent of making indiscriminate
end wholesale appropriation of tbese lands for this object is, to say tho least, of very doubtful expediency ;
while ibe opening of many of these roads, and especially
those which constitute " main routes," and will iu gucb
connoct important jioints, are of great value, not only t o
the particular sections whore located, but to the SJtato
at large, by having opened up tho country and thereby
invited settlements, others have been and will continue
to be for years to come, without tho least practicable
utility ; am) the appropriations made for tboir construction, if not whoily lost, may be regarded as of very littlo
real worth.
This is certainly an important subject, and should receive careful consideration. Of the six million acres of
land thus added to us. while largo portions of it may bo
regarded as worthless, some of it was nevertheless rery
valuable. Nearly or quite all of this latter class has
been sold at tbe minimum price or taken upon contracts
for roads which have already been built or has been
selected to moet the payment of such as have not yet
been built. Among the evils which have resulted from
a too liberal appropriation of tbese lands is this : Tho
large quantities of scrip thereby thrown upon tho market and in the hands or parties unable to hold it, hare
reduced their value to little more than fifty cents on the
dollar of their minimum price. This involves the necessity of making very large appropriations for the construction of tbe roads, otherwise they cannot be let and
or con me must remain unopened Another ovil is, that
in the scramble for appropriations or thuac lauds, combinations arc formed more wilb a view, it is feared, of
securiog priTalo interests thaflof promoting tbe public
good.
Without therefore, recommending any change in tho
policy, which oow seems to be a settled one, of appropriating these lands for the building of roads, I would
most respectlully suggest that a careful and thorough
examination on your part bo devoted to an investigation of tbe claims of any and every road hereafter asked
for, and that none be located excepting snch only as are
manifestly for the public interest; and I tho more readily recommend this courac from tbe fact that many of
the roads already located have never been let while
many others have been but partially constructed, and
that too in such a manner as to render of little value tbe
work already expended opou tbem.
Statistics of tbe
precise condition, at the present time, of all the swamp
land roads, would be valuable, and should be obtained
in such form as to show at a single glance the date of
their respective locations—their termini and general
route—whether completed or otherwise—if not completed, whether let or otherwise—if let to whom aod oo
what terms—what amount of work has been expended
upon each—how much has been paid upon each—and
whether the original contracts have been abandoned, or
are still In force.
Tbe cash sales of swamp lands for the past year
amount only to tbe sum of $33,804 *9. The very
small amount thus disposed of is owing to tbe foct*that
large quantites of these land a are offered for sale at very
low rates by road contractors or other persons holding
scrip, inaed in payment for the building of roads.—
'l"hese lands, although now nearly worthless, will, as
soon as tbe State becomes settled aod improved, be of
much value ; for which reason tbey certainly should not
be Bouandered at the present time; nor indeed be disposed of io any manner without tbo State receiving a
fair equivalent
