CANAL FROM ALBANY TO BOSTON.
LONDONDERRY, MARCH /, 1895.
Hon. josiah Quincy,
Mayor Of the city Of Boston,
DEAR Swallowing the lively interest and
disposition to action, you have always evinc-
ed, when the interests Of your city or State
were in any way concerned, and the means
you possess TO promote their prosperity, can.
not conceive that you will be injifFere nt to the
subject of a Canal from Boston to Albany or
Troy, which see not unirequcntly mentioned
in the public papers. My retirement from the
scene oil action, affords me leisure to digest my
thoughts, and bring together such observations
as am able to recall, and which think NAV
be useful to the Massachusetts scheme, princi-
pally derived from my view Of the great locks
from lake Wiener to Gothenburg, seen in 1886.
the Canal and underground works of the
Duke OF Bedford, explored for nearly one mile
in the year 1877, and my view ola noble work
i'll the year 1870, underta ken and executed
by single individual, for the purpose of car.
rying the produce Of three fifty feet furnaces
from the upper combs of the mountains Of
South Wales, at Merhyr Fidwcll, to Cardiff.
a distance OF 80 miles, with fifty locks. of ten
feet each, making five hundred feet drop. This
work was executed by Mr.. Crawshaw. who
had been poor blacksmith in the vicinity of
London, but having the good fortune 10 invent
the irons, called Sadirons, with which women
now iron their clothes, instead of the old fash
Toned mode Of heater in an iron box case
was by the means OF patent for this simple ar
ticle, enabled to establish AN iron furnace and
| forge shop, on century tease of bleak and
entirely barren territory, OF one mile front by
| two deep. This establishment made steady
aud rapid progress for thirty-Gve or forty years,
when, at the close of life, his wages to Golfers
coke-burners, shelters, refiners, bar iron work.
eTs, castors, &c. amounted to 10000 per
week, and at his death, which was shortly
before my visit, his nephew informed me he
was enabled to distribute G70O,0G sterling a.
rnong his heirs.
Now shall il be said that the energy of the
rich and enterpririzing State Of Massachusetts
shall be msdirected, or fall in the rear of this
| poor blacksmith on the other side Of the wa.
| ter, especially when our sister State of New
York has so completely removed the scales
from our eyes, by not only showing the nodus
oPsrGndi, but by opening her book Of results
10 our admiring vision?
We are indebted to Gov Clinton's Speecb
for his information as TO the income of the Ca.
nal in it, present state. and it, eventual prcs.
