By letter just received in this town from
Ncw-Havcn, we learn that at the closing ofthe
Subscription Books for the Stoos of the Canal
Bank, in that City, it was found that $3.50, 900
had been subscribed, which is $250,000 more
| than the capital. One of the conditions Of the
Charter is, that the Bank shall make sub
scripton of $500 900 TO the Stock of the Farm
ington Canal Three hundred thousand dol
| lars was also subscribed to the Canal Stock,
which, with the sum TO be added by the Bank,
will make 100000, Or about 100000 more
than Unnecessary to carry the Canal to the north
line of the State. This amount we believe
much exceeds expectation, and will, it is
thought, secure the continuance of the Canal
to northampton.
If the encouragement for a Canal from
Northampton to New-Haven will warrant
such liberal subscriptions, how much more so
will that of one from Worcester to Providence.
There is good river navigation for boats, from
Northampton to tide water, and the only
gain by Canal is the difference between rirer
and Canal navigation, whereas, here, the
gain is the difference between land nariga-
lion and Canal navigation, which is four-fold
greater than the former.
