THE ACT for the formation of this Great Work having panted, and its general merits, and the correctness of the estimates of expense and return having been fully investigated in both Houses of Parliament, the Committee of Management deem Wright, at the termination of their labours, to submit to the public a brief Statement of the nature of the Plan, and of the prospect of advantage which it holds out. The Committee consider such a I Statement, founded upon the evidence adduced, to be the more neces sary, in consequence of the partial and unconnected mode In which, during a contest arising purely out of local interests, the attention of the public has been called to the detail, while it has been led away from the leading features of the measure. CAUTION. TAYLOIt and Co. (successors to M'Adam and Co.)' beg to Caution the Public against the use of any Paints pur porting to be MINERAL PAINTS which are net supplied from their Manufacwry, or furnished by their appointed Agents, as many persons are Imposing upon the Public the refuse of the Gas Wish' (which has beenproved by the highest autberiiies to be mow Hens. particularly as a covering for woodwork) . by pirating the name of their Paints which bave for upwards of twenty yeark(not withstanding the gtitlit and erns cbmpetitiolOsseibtsiststkekteindid' patronage from Goveminent, who still continue to apd the following Certificates, granted by the highly di "011etirs , In his Majqty's service, Will (tally piove its durability and economm' itotirithstanding the appaant cheapness of these *dims aW inci dent imitations.

No wood coated with these Pthsts will be worm.eaten, nor will insects or vermin of any kind inhibit hot-bid frames, or other plates, coated with them, and they will be found an effectual cure for the dry tot; being composed entirely of Mineral subets they are inioluble in wiser, and thereby Mist moisture in a thinner su perior to all other preparadoss. PRICE, READY POE USE. The extreme danger and diSculty in the navigation round the Land's:End, and thr direittions, extending frequently 'to six viretks, and even longer periOds, arising from the southwesterly winds, which prevali during eight or nine months In the year, are facts well &Owens to all persons interested in the. shipping trade front 14e1aa d,' ' Wales,, Liverpool; and the ports of the 'Moll Chits:set. The eak niitons losses of lives and shi on the eager!' bevonshite aid Cornwall are tots frsently hi theitewspapers, to halm escaped the notice of the public generally. These circumstances being kept id view, a slight glance at the map will stifEce to demonstrate to any one, the great obstructions which must consequently arise to all vessels trading from ports westward and northward of the Land's End, to ports southward and eastward of it ; and that these obstructions mast most especially preient themselves to the increasing trade in the southern counties of Wales, will also be readily perceived. To remove these evils, and to open a speedy and safe communi cation m all salons for vends trading from London and the ports on the eastern and southern coasts.of England, to the ports of Ire land and to the western ports of England, including Liverpool and Bring!, and to the coasts of South Wales, are the main objects of l i the proposed Ship Canal. . 1 The Canal will extend from Beer or Beaton Bay is the 'Bagßah Channel, to Boolford or Bridgewater Bay in the Mod Coonoip ; it will be 44 miles long, 90 feet wide, and IS feet Mob awl r be navigatedilvessels of 200 tons urden, reedit awtrr when fully loaded. At the two extremities harbours will be eumltfueted, and, as will be seen by the evidence, these harbotirs will am only secure 1 to vessels using the Canal sale and commodious enumees to k, but will be of great service to the Shipping Intense generally, as Asylum Harboun, and will also prevent an lama* Ms of Wes I and property. The prepoeed Harbour at Seek wli, IN dose of war, be of inclimialik advantage in preventing captures by tbe Msensy's cruisers. The total -expense of foinsing . the Canal and Harbours, and 'of amply prerriding'for tier" eontingenty Incident to ouch a work, is estimated by Mr. Telford at afirntipho, and from his Memos, on oath, it appears that be has allowed for each distinct put of the work a sons at which be can immediately find parties swilling to iioutradt for it.

The expenses of management, repairs, and every other contingency, Will be . provided for by the tonnage arising on the in ternal traffic on the CanaL In the shove calculation no allowance is made for the vase in crease of trade which is annually talus place in South Wales, and to which this undertaking will most essentially contribute; sbr is any tonnage reckoned on coal brought front Wales to London : the Stone Cull and Culm are, however, already used there, and on the Litt coast of England ; and there it evety 'salon ti expert that the eon Welch Coal will find its way to the London Market, When is safe , and regular mode of transit shall be secured. The consegaent increase of trade and mansiketift in the lb* and populous country through which the Cunt will pass, presents a prospect of additional revenue to a very considerable extent; and in the great Northern Canals, which have proved so butnellee lar productive, that increase has been the great ImldAll of profit. It should here be noticed, that a recent aesotiatiaa Will InoW the Corpontion, at a vary moderate earns*, to nahke a brands £hip Canal to the populous and wealthy town of Taunton, and that a janatiaa with the Brand Western Canal will, by the same meant, effected.

BALLOON ASCENT IN THE UNILED STATES. Mr. Robertson made his promised ascent in a balloon from Casde Garden, New York, on Saturday, the 9th of July, to the great gratification of the many thousands who witnessed the performance. By an error in fillin g the balloon, the ascent was delayed about half an hour too late, or it would probably have been one of t4 - :e handsomest ever seen.• The balloon began to rise jo,t at dusk, and rose quite slow at first. As soon as it was above the Garden walls, the groom threw out some of his ballast, took a graceful leave of the com pany, and then arose more rapidly, amidst the shouts of the multitude. The wind was from the westwasd, and took him in a direction over nearly the v hole length of the city, so as to be visible to nearly every inhabitant. In the lower part, he skimmed apparently about 50 feet above the tops of the chimney., and con tinued to rise so long as he was seen, when the balloon appeared like a small black spot high in the horizon. It was visible about seventeen minutes, and did not appear then to have begun to descend. The darkness obscured further view. The zronaut alighted in safety io a corn field on tb. farm of Mr. Abraham Remsen, it N. wtown, Long Island, which is stated to be between 10 and 11 mires from the place of ascension. The car struck the ground gently close by a feriae, which Mr. IL laid hold of "with his hands, and secured the balloon, withoat having resort to his grappling irons. He returned safe to the Garden about 11 o'clock at night, and received the con gratulation of numerous citizens, who were in waiting. The time occupied in the Voyage was less than hall an ibour. The passage of the balloon ores the city vi as =seeding), beautiful, grand, and Interesting. De Jeroisaut was distinctly seen most of the way employing hitusclf in throwing out sips of paper.
