JAMES RIVER AND KANAwHA CANAL.-Great in
terest Is exhibited in Virginia for an arrangement
that has very recently been entered into between
the James River and Kanawha Company and
French company, the chief directors of which are
Messrs. DeBellot, fre,es. The object Of the con-
tract between these parties is the extension and
perfection Of the canal communication between
the county Of Kanawha, tin which Messrs De
Belot are large land proprietors on the river Of
that name in Western Virginia, and the James
river. With this SO improved as to have the canal
seven feet in depth, and able to accommodate YES.
sells of five or six hundred tons, it is deemed GER
tain that great and continually increasing trade
will spring up between Western Virginia and the
Empire Of France, whereby the latter will receive
from the former the greater portion Of the vast
supplies Of iron, coal, and timber which her man.
nfactures annually require. The capital stock of
the new company is large, we believe twenty mil
lions OF dollars Although the contem plat; d i'm
provement will have several powerful rivals In
the baltimore and Ohio railroad and Pennsylva-
mia and New York roads and canals vet such are
the advantages claimed for the Virginia canal, by
reason Of mi1der climate and other circumstances,
that 1t Is confidently believed the tonnage can be
reduced from the present rate Of four cents per ton
to one-ninth or one-tenth Of the same We shall
be glad to learn the success Of any arrangement,
tending to develop the vast natural resources of
Virginia, and to increase its commerce and extend
its commercial relations
