To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

In his able report on that subject, Mr. Calhoun indicated the Delaware and Raritan Canal as one of the most costly and important links in that chain of public works, which he recommended should be contracted at the national expense.
I shall not here enquire into the reasons why the General Goverment failed to act in con- formity with the recommendation of Mr. Cal- houn. It is sufficient to refer to the fact, that Congress refused to authorize any expenditure for this important work.
The citizen
...s of New Jersey however for manv 31 years cherished the hope, that the Government would, sooner or later, adopt the policy of con- structing such public works, as were univer- sally deemed important for national defence, and that when such a policy should be sanc- tioned, they felt confident that the Delaware and Raritan Canal would be made.
The time loas (only little more than a quarter of a century ago) when the projectors of those public works of New Jersey, now deemed to be so remunerative, were considered visionary men, who proposed to waste a great deal of money without any reasonable prospect of beneficial results.
