We understand that contracts are already
entered into for the transportation of large
quantities of salt from SaIina to Utica, the
present season, on the canal at 81 cents per
cask of 5 bushels. The distance between
these two places is about SO miles, and the
expence of transporting salt has hitherto been
one dollar per cask. The cost of this i'm
portant article at the Salina works, including
the state duty is but 40 cts per bushel, and
it is probable great potion OF the western
section of the state will hereafter be supplied
with it at cheaper rate than our seaports
