Two steamboats, to ply on the Cannon river,
between Morristown and Wateryille, are being
constructed. The larger is sixty-fve feet
long, stern wheel, and will draw twenty-five
inches of water. The other will be pro-
pellor, twenty eight feet in length, Of eigh-
teen inches draft, and only six and one-half
feet high, to facilitate the passing under
bridges.
Time is justifying all our ideas
How often did Gordon E. Cole amuse
himself, years ago, with caricatures,
mis-representing our plan Of using the
Cannon river as canal to transport
the wheat of the great region tribu'
tary to it, to market; and now the
caricatures are forgotten and Cor
don nearly so,-and steamers are
being built to carry out the very idea
we advocated in Congress.
And yet we are not vain; while
Gordon's brass coat and blue buttons
can hardly hold in the bursting al
fuence of his self-sufficiency.
