ENGLISH AND BRISTOL CHANNELS SHIP CANAL. rl II E ACT for t h e f ormat i on o f t hi s G reat W or k having passed, and its general merits, and the correctness . of the estimates of expense and return having been fully inves•igated in both Houses of Parliament, the Committee of Management deem it right, 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 adiramage which it holds out. The Committee consider such a , 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 featutes of the measure. The extreme danger 'and difficulty. in the navigation monad. the Land's End, and the detentions, extending frequently to sisisee‘ksi and even lenger periods, arising from the,-south-westerly wWito, which prevail during eight Or nine months in the year, are facts wan known to all persons interested in the shipping trade from Ireland, Wales, Liverpool, and the ports of the Bristol Channel. The cala mitous lossei of lives and shipping on the coasts of Devonshire and Cornwall are too frequently detailed in the newspapers to have es caped the notice of the public generally. These circumstances being kept in view, a slight glance at the map will suffice 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 theie obstructions must most especially present 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 at all seasons fo r vesse l s tra di ng f rom L on d on an d t h e p orts on the eastern and southern coasts of England, to the ports' of Ire land and to the western ports of England, including Liverpool and Bristol, and to the coasts of Smith Wales, are the , main objects of the proposed Ship Canal.

JOHN HALL, in bringing to vrrection tfe Plans of himself and Friends for the general improvemt nt of the condition of the Labouring Classes. has effected an improved and cheap Method of Building, for which he has taken out a Patent;' and now offors for Sate to Builders in every County in England the exercise thereof, only reserving to himself the right of erecting Cottages fur Labourers, and Schools of Industry Establish ments, as recommended by himself, adopted by his Friends, and particularly exhibited at Lindfield, in Sussex. This method of Building is as durable as Brick or Stone; is kes pervious to the weather, and conse quently warmer in Winter and cooler in Summer ; its specific gravity exceeds that of Sandstone ; it can be carried on in any weather imitable to the Materials at pre sent in use; is much faster in . its progress; r equires mere Labourers to carry it on, and in its Cost does not exceed one-fourth of that of Brick work.

The amount annually from these sources may, on an average of years, be taken at . 10,000 0 0 Clear annual income ari►ing from the Canal and Harbours, and applicable to a dividend among the Proprietors, of about 12 per cent. 310,846 12 3 N.B. The expenses of management, repairs, and every other contingency, will be provided for by the tonhage arising on•the in. ternal traffic on the CanaL In the above calculation no allowance is made fur the vast in crease of trade which is annually taking place in South Wales, and to which this undertaking will most essentially contribute; nor is any tonnage reckoned on coal brought from Wales to London ; the Stone Coal and Culm are, however, already used there, and on the east coast of England ; and there is every reason to expect that the common Welch Coal will find its way to the London market, when a safe and regular mode of transit shall be secured. The consequent increase of trade and manufacture in the fine and populous conntry through which the Canal will pass, presents a prospect of additional revenue to a very considerable extent ; and in the great Northern Canals, which have proved so immensely productive, that Increase has been the great source of profit. It should here be noticed, that a recent negotiation win allow the Corporation, at a very moderate expense, io make a branch Ship Canal to the populous and wealthy town of Taunton, and that a junction with the Grand Western Canal will, by the same means, be effected. It should also be noticed, that although in the event of a war, the transit through the Canal will be very materially augmented, the additional income to be derived from that event has not been taken into coniideration in the above estimates. The Committee, therefore, conceive that this undertaking cannot be considered of a delusive or even of a doubtful and hazardous character, but a measure affording to the Subscribers every reason able assurance of an ample present profit, and the additional pro mise of an income increasing with the advance of national prosperity. The capital of X 1,750,000 is directed in the Act to be raised. by Shares of :€lOO each. No Shareholder will be liable beyond his Shares, and his liability to future calls, in respect of such Shares, will cease immediately on a transfer; the Act directs, that two months at the least shaft intervene between each Call, and that no Call shaU exceed Five per Cent. A General Meeting of the Subscribers wiU take lace pn the ißth of August, to elect Directors, and make the necessary ar rangements for the commencement of the work ; and the Com mittee re/rest that all communications, in the interval, may be ad dressed to Messrs.

" THOMAS JEANS, Architect." " The above Cert ificate made by order of the Commis:beets for the Affairs of Barracks. " JOH'? :STAPLETON % Seg." " Plymouth Lines, May 26, 1807. " This is to certify, that by order of General Mercer, at the desire of Nexus. M'Adam and Co. we made experiments with their preparations of .Itlineral Brown Paint In April and Sep tember, 1806. The situation of the wood and iron work made use of in this experiment is very high, and entirely exposed to the wind front the Channel, where It is difficult to find any coating able to resist the weather. The paint, after having withstood the winter in the above situation, has formed a very hard and com pact body on both wood and iron work ; the wood when cut is hard and very dry ; the iron free from every appearance of rust.— From the present appearance of the Mineral Brown Paint, its hard, solid, and impenetrable state, there is every reason to believe that h will defend the wood and iron work for years against the effect of weather and the moisture of the atmosphere ' • and we give it as our t4inion, that it is a useful coating for wood and iron work exposed to the weather or to damp, and consider it to be cheaper than any other that can be procured.
