From the President of the United States.

Washington, Oct 11, 1842. GENTLEMEN :

I should be most truly happy to be present at an event so interesting to your city as the celebration proposed for the 14th, and to which you have invited me. Circumstances, however, deny to me the pleasure of such a visit. I heartily rejoice with the

citizens of New York, in the completion of a work so vastly important to the health, and comfort of its inhabitants. It is justly to be classed among the first works of the age, and is honorable to the enterprise of the great centre of American trade and commerce.
