COMMUNICATIONS.

On the SOth OF last month the Commits
sIoners of the Erie and ChampIain Canals
made Their annual report to the legislature III
New York.
From THIS report 1t appears, that in the arti-
cirs OF plank, scantling, timber, cord wood.
shingles, fence rails, aths, &c. forming wha,
IS usually denominsed =" lumber" there have
been transported upon these canals to the va
| lue OF more than 100000
The whele of this lumber is prepared for
market during the winter season, when the
frost precudes farming operations and de-
Quoting the value of the aborer employed in
the summer in carrying the lumber to market
IN other words, deducting the freight, the
whole value Of the lumber when at market. is
clear profit 10 the state. If we estimate the
freight at S 10000, the clear profit will be-
S39O,OO0 a sum exceeding the interest which
the slate has to pay upon all the monies Dor
rowed for making the canals.
Exclusive of lumber, there was Transported
upon the Champlan Canal 1865 tons of pro-
duce and merchandze-a the tolls collect,
ed from that canal amounted TO sac, 966 81.
Exclusive of lumber, there was transported
upon TIE Ere Canal 3J,O37 tons Of produce
ana merchandise the tolls were SI26 1872 GO
The tolls upon both canals amounting 70
S153e99 Al.
In 1922 the tolls were sos, OOO and those
for 1924 are estimated at S250,OOO.
Among the articles transported mpon these
canals INTO The interior of the country were 60
tons OF oysters and clans. Ii thus appears
that the inhabitants of Ohio and Michigan
may hereafter enjoy those salt water delica
cies.
Excluding the lumber. the produce and
merchandise transported upon tie Erie Cana!
IS IN quantity about equal to that carrie upon
the James River Canal, exclusive of csa
The communication between the canal and
Lake Erie, is not expected to be completed
until the month of May 1925.
