and the carragestav with at least three times the
velocity that boats, do canals. There are no
stoppings OF Consequence. The train of wagons
may be continual, and much property as the
road can contain may be in constant and regular
motions wagon succeeding wagon in close array,
to the point OF destination. The New York Canal
can pass but forty boats per day, in regular business.
This have from the report of the Commissioners,
now before me. They state that il must not be ex-
pected that the canal long be able TO pass the
trade which will be offered. They speak of con-
structing double locks, by which boats may ascend
and descend at the same time without interrupiing
each other. But in few years they calculate that
this expedent will not be sufficient: another canal
has been recommended, parallel with the present
line; but OF late some scientific speak OF con-
struc'ing railroad along the side Of the canal the
whole distance from Albany TO Buffalo, as the only
sure means OF securing all the trade that may offer.
And here the advantages of New York are i'm
mense. Her level for the purpose is already
made; II requires only triling addition in some
parts to the breadth OF the towing path; and when
her single locks occur of six or eight feet lift, it
VIII only be necessary to besia about quarter OF .
mile below TO graduate the rise and pare off little
Tor ABOUT quarter OF mile above, without hav-
Ing recourse to inclined planes and stationary
engines, except at Lockport, where the rise is 6
feei. The long levels, one of which is 60 miles,
ara admirably adapted for the purpose, and having
canal already completed along the whole line
she can convey all the materials that may be wanted
TO the spot with a iriiling expense. This scheme
probably viii be undertaken and completed before
Pennsylvania can be spnred into action, and New
York can effect i, at half the expense, and at hal
