Chesapeake aud Ohio Cmal-The presi-
dent and Directors of this Canal met on Sat
ufday last, IN the packet boat Charles Fen
ion Mercer, and accompanied by their Engi
neer in Chief, MIR. Be%njasnin Wright, the
Engineer OF the Second Division. Mr.. Nathan
>. Roberts, and several other Engineers
and officers of the Company, proceeded 10
'hc CdHdi: TotH tue gu locks next below the
Little Falls Of the Potomac, TO the first level
above the Great Falls, passing in this space
over twelve culverts, and through sixteen
locks, each Of eight feet lift. They met in
their ascent. a boat which bad jast descended
from the Seneca feeder, eight miles above the
| Great Falls.
1t was highly gratifying TO perceive, that
the side c~alyerts of the locks, each of which
is provided with three inIets for the water at
the bottom of the lock, caused the boat to
ascend readily from one level to the next,
and to pass through the chamber of the lock,
in less than three minutes; and this, notwith
standing the lock tenders and draft horses
were new to their occupations
The passage through enc lock was accom-
plished in two and a half minutes; and the
Engineer in Chief was Of opinion that, with
prompt exertIon, the passage Through a lock
might be accomplished in two minutes.
No effort was made during this VOYAGE TO
try the speed of the boat, which is IL feet s
inches wide, and Is feet long, being three
feet narrower, and fifteen feet shorter. than
the lock chambers will admit. But the same
boat was some time ago, when crowded with
passengers, propelled by three horses, along
a single level Of two miles and a quarter. at a
rate very little short of eight miles an hour.
