CANAL TRANSPORTATION.

l.
When II was first assumed upon the author
lty at our justly celebrated c"untryman Full
ton, that transportation upon navigable canals
could be effected at the price of one cent n ton
a mile, the writer of this article considered il
the dream of a visionary, never to be realiz
ed--hut subsequent investigation has shewn
him his error.
Transportation upon the n. York Western
Canal was at first higher, as appears by the
information of Benjamin Wright, esq. princi-
pal engineer, in his answers To certain queries
propounded to him by Governor Clinton in
the year 1922, on this and various other inter
estlng points; which queries and answers are
in the hands of David s. Garland, esq. mem
her of The House of Delegates. Mr. Wright
therein expresses the opinion that transporta
ton would finally settle down to one cent
ton mile; and accordingly there were hun
dreds of tons transported last summer upon
the Western Canal az this price.
The following short statement will sbew
that II is fair compensation:
A Boat of 40 tons burthen, Just ready 70
be launched, at Schenectady. in June last. cost
Messrs. Degrafie 81 Walton "a well known
forwarding house of that place. SS5O-but

tons will cost $500. Twelve and half per
cent. upon this sum is liberal yearly allow
ance to pay the wear and tear ofthe boat. saw
two and = hall per cent. and reimburse the
principal in ten years, period not too long
for the duration of canal boat. Tfs account
