cHEsApEAKE AND OHIO CANAL.

lthas been frequently assumed that the Chesa
peake and Ohio Canal would be completed by III,
st of October, the time specified in the contract.
We have taken some pains to ascertain the presen
condition OF the work along the entire line, and mr.
enabled TO present the following satisfactory iactsa
the result OF our Investigations.
The two cut-stone Locks, between Dam No. q ant
Cumberland, will be completed by the first of July
The thirteen composite locks, of which three are
nearly completed, will be finished by the latter part
Of August
Aqreduct No. Q, over Fifteen Mile creek will be
completed by the first day Of July. Aquednct No.
Il, over Town creek. which, next TO the Tunnel is
the heaviest work on the line will be completed in
the month Of September.
All the excavation along the line, will be complet-
ed on the lsto of August.
One third of the arching Of the great Tunnel Is
finished One half Of the side walks on the bern
and tow path side are already completed. The por-
tai on the south end is ready for the spring of the
arch. The work at the Tunnel is pushed night and
day. The supply Of bricks and cement is abundant.
The whole Of this magnificent work will be ready
for the earliest letting of the water.
The stone for the dam at Cumberland has been
luarried and is now being delivered. 1t is very
superior quality of sandstone. With low stnge Of
water the dam Gun be finished in six weeks. The
basins at the same place are already completed.
Many OF the sections are entirely completed
Many of the culvers are completed, and all are in
state Of forwardness
The lock houses have been contracted for and the
materials are ready for their construction. The
timber for the lock- gates is now being delivered
The lockron, and iron for ratings Of aqueduct ant
tunnel have been contracted for.
The road-bridges and waste-ways have been con
tracted for, and are in state of forwardness.
A general cleaning up OF the old sections FINISHED
some years ago is going on.
The fact is no single thing connected with thu
completion of the line has been neglected, and til,
work is Of character TO challenge tho highest ADM
ration of all who are conVersant with such matters
This information may be relied on Cumberland

We once took notion TO find out the annual in
come Of the inhabitants of the most favored countries
Of Christendom. We opened McCuloch's great
work on Great Britain, and found his estimate for
each to be El6 a year, or about % cts IA day and
for each person in Ireland f6 year or cts. day.
We looked in Cheyaliers admirable lectures on
French Political economy and his estimate for each
person in France Is about Si5 year. or ~ liz cts
day. Our own census estimates the average product
Of The richest State in the Union at SllO for each
person, or 80 cts per day, while whole country
taken together slave States and ALL yields an annual
product Of but SCI for each person, or about II cts
per day
