TEE DRY DOCK, MALTA.—This stupendous work
at the head of the Dockyard creek, on the S.E. and by
E. side of the Great Harbour, was commenced by driv-
ing the first pile May 10th, 1842. The first stone was
laid May Ist, 1844, under the plans of Mr. Scamp, and
carried out by Mr. Walter Elliott. It is fast approach-
ing towards completion. The extreme length, from the
gates to the centre of the bow, is 274 feet, and to the
square 222 feet; the width 82 feet; and the depth from
the level of the water 25 feet. It is constructed of lime-
stone, principally from Goza, being less porous than any
other stone found in these islands. At either end will be
two capstans of great power. Except, of course, the en-
trance, the dock is surrounded by arched vaults, of im-
mense strength, which will be available for stores.
Surrounding the dock, and forty feet from its
margin, factories, smithies, carpenters' workshops, &c.,
will be erected. There are two-engines of twenty
horse power each, which have been employed
from the commencement of the work in pumping
out the water, in order to set the masonry dry, and the
same engines will be permanently fixed for pumping out
the water from the dock, which it is calculated they will
do in ten hours, when a vessel is docked; and also for
driving the machinery of the new factories. The en-
gines are under the superintendence of Mr. Hamahaw.
The dock will be able to receive a 120 gun ship, or the
largest steam-frigate (with her paddles on) in the navy.
Until recently, there were about 2,000 persons at work
in the quarries or elsewhere connected with the dock,
having in their families about 5,000 souls. Now, how..
ever, there are only 300 employed. The first class
masons receive Is. 4d. a day; second class Is. 2d.; thirdl
class ls. id.; labourers first class Is., second class 10di.
The cost of the dock, it is estimated, will be about
90.0001., independently of factories, &c., which are not
yet es,ireated. The amount has been paid out of funds
granted for the purpose by the British Government.
This will be the most valuable and complete dry dock ire
the Mediterranean, vit) may almost Fay in the know",
world.—Malta Mari
