SHIP CANAL.-The important Ship Canal
which is to unite Lake Superior with Lake
Michigan, will soon be commenced. The
surveys for its location have been completed,
and the ground has been found quite as ia
vorable for the easy and speedy construc-
ton Of the work as was expected. Several
routes have been surveyed, which will ena-
BILE the Legislature of Michigan and con-
tractors to obtain a perfect understanding
Of the whole subject. The canal will be a
fraction less than n mile in length. The
law Of Cungress provides that the locks shall
be ut least $50 feet long and GO feet wide,
aud the Michigan Legislature has power to
enlarge the dimensions.
When completed, this Canal will enable
steamers Of the largest class to run from
Buffalo to the head waters of the lake with
out any transhipments-an Improvement
that will quadruple the trade Of this immense
lake in less than two years. Lake Superb
or is the largest and most magnificent body
Of fresh water in the world. 1t is a sea by
itself, with Islands larger than German prin-
cipalities. In the way Of mineral wealth, it
acknow lodges no equal anywhere. Hereto
fore all this wealth has been land locked
Owing to the Falls at st. Mary, all the pro-
ducts Of Lake Superior have been so hinder
cd and taxed, in order to reach the seaport,
that il was almost impossible to make them
"pay expenses" The contemplated Canal
will obviate ali these difficulties, and enable
the copper diggers Of elsie Royale" to reach
New York with as little inconvenience as is
experienced by the people Of Detroit. The
Canal will alao add greatly to our supply of
fish, Lake Superior being more abundantly
supplied with the fnny tribe" than any 9th.

G-We are informed by The Toronto
North American. that a female residing on
Mill Greek, went home on Tuesday after.
noon last, and found that her brothcr.in-
law had severely cut his foot with an ax. She
tainted on seeing the wound,but Immediately
recovering, she returned to Cali on some 9th
er business, and then went home. When
she passed by the spot where her brother
in-law had been wounded, and the blood was
lying in Il clotted heap, her heart sank at the
sight; she got home. but the recollection was
too much for her, and she fell on the thres-
hold of the door, aud when taken up life was
extinct,
