NEW KIND OF LOCK ON CANALS.-Mr. Smith, of
Deenston, explained at a recent meeting of the Institution of
Civil Engineers, a new system of lockage for canals proposed
by him, a model of which he presented. To avoid the pre-
sent expensive construction of locks and their waste of water,
the author proposes to divide the canal into a series of basins,
the water levels of which should be from 12 to 18 inches
above each_ other. The extremity of each basin is so con-
structed as to permit only the free passage of a boat ; in this
is placed a single gate, hinged to a sill across the bottom,
the head pointing at a given angle against the stream, and
the lateral faces pressing against rabbets in the masonry.
The gate is to be constructed of buoyant materials, or made
hollow so as to float and be held up by the pressure of the
water in the higher level ; on the top is a miler to facilitate
the passage of the boats. When a boat is required to pass
from a higher to a lower level, the low end, which must be
armed with an inclined projection, depresses the gate
as much as the depth of the immersion of the boat, and as
much water escapes as can pass between its sides and the
walls of the contracted part of the basin. The same action
takes place in ascending, excepting that a certain amount of
power must be expended to enable the boat to surmount the
dilThrence of level between the basins. The quantity of water
wasted by each boat would be in proportion to its immersion
and the speed at which it passed over the gate. In case of
different sized boats passing along the same canal, it is pro-
posed to have a small gate forming part of the main gate, so
as to avoid the loss of water which would" ensue from the
whole width being open for the passage of a small boat.—
Inventors' Advocate.
