Uut the dimensions of the Canal proposed by Capt. Romilly, do i,0t coincide With the Reolulions, (-N«i I.) Jt would even ap- p ar preferable to gfa a different direc¬ tion to this Canal. rfhe iwdeWigned Commissioners have described the same upon a copy of Crtpt. ftomilly'* plan, which is hereunto nnnevd (No. 3.) Su¬ perior economy ami utility recommend theproposig of this new 'l Ian for the reasons fojlowing. At the South Wet end of the Harbour of Montreal, there U a tract of £P und. two arpens in width, by twenty arpens in depth, which was formerly grant« d by the Seignors to iUa Inhabitants ol Mon¬ treal, iu common a- a pasture ground for their cattle. This ground is vacant, and maybe made use of for the Canal in question. A Basin might be formed therein at the point A for securing in "inter, such vessels as 'he pr< reeled Ca- nal may occasion the substitution of, to the Kind's Batteaux now in use. From the end of the Common, the Canal will be continued along the Domain of St. Gabriel ; will crtm «t»e land of the m(|. ow and heirs of Mr. ISregory^ntj willen- ter a-mall lake ns far as a'point li laid down in the p'an (No. 3) where there should be erected a ^t on* Dam, extend¬ ing from the Cote St. Paul, to th-foot oi the Cote St. 1 ierre- The view is to form tlwre a suacioul Basing According to Cant. Roniilly's p an theifronud there is below the level of the St. L~-\* reuce at La Chine, where the Canal will termin¬ ate. Such a basin w.il be highly useful, as a place of depo it for such wood and timber ofal! descriptions as uniy arrive to lata in the Fall to be sent tnQ i-bec. The experice of haiiling thepiec.s ashore and again setting the.n ali at in the Spring will be saved With this *jew the sluices and Flood Gates ou^ht to be twnty (est wide. C,»on this plan, the Canal would be crossed by fowl bridges, where¬ as by leading the same as far as tiie cnft* rent of St. Mary, bridges would he re- q/tlrrd across the streets of the Suburbs (whertof thirty-niiir Is already opened) which would be oo-sed by the Cam!. A gri at number r! opeiati.ns neces.^an ta the calculation ol the probable expense. His plan *nd Repoit are hereunto annexed, and mark¬ ed [^o. 1] The estimates are founded en the parity of the ground; and of the price ol lab ur, compared with the Re¬ port of the Commissioners feV ihe State of N-'w Y< rk on their Grand Canal, publi hdiu 1817.—If it be true that la¬ bour is there performed at lower rates than those in the estimate, the like suc- cc s< may be expected in this Province. Tie Commissioners having learned that Captain Mann, of the Engineers, had peiiormeri opeiatioosat the Long Sank, procured a ropy of his Report, whereof duplicates are. annexed. [Nc.'i] but Cap¬ tain Mann has only taken into his cousid- erati a the King,« 13: t* aux now in use. Tee work he proposes at the Rapids Caiillou, ami La Chute a Plondeau. on the South shore of the River, would fall within the Province of Lower Cat-ada. The Juris iction of Lower Canada is confined to the North shore, which ought to form the sole field of its operations. It will doubtless be asked, why t e Commissioners propose Canals lit for na¬ vigation ol boats of such large dimen¬ sions ? The answer to which is, [in ad¬ dition to the reason:* stated in the resolu¬ tions No. i."| j First— Tf at it is true the expence will be greater, but that the advantages wiil b" in proportion.—A Rent of one hnn- dted tons, will be navigated by six men at the utmost, and will carry as much as twenty-five of the King's Lateaux, navi¬ gated by four men each; that i to ••ay that the work 01 one hundred men, will be performed by six. Secondly—-Heavy articles, such as Cannon, Mortars of lar^e calibre, An¬ chor-and Cables for large Ships, w re incapable of being conveyed by water in the la'c War.—A tardy and enormou \y expensive water conveyance was resort d to. The proposed canals will bear ves¬ sels adapted to the conveyance of those articles.—in case of war, they are of pri¬ mary necessity. By whom the propor^d ameliorations ougut to be made, remains for consideration. Upon this topic, the undersigned have no hesitation it, suggesting that an un¬ dertaking of such importance ought to be ■carri. d it.tocxccntb 11 by the Provincial Gov, ri.menf.- It oiigfet not to be left to the speculations aud precarious resources Pi individralsef any navicular comoa- ii) . lor the f -Mowing rea.soie.__ First—It is not one partial underta- k'lu, as that from Montreal to La Chine singly, which is to be cootemplat d, but tee whole of the ameliorations collet tiv.■. fomm and 169 prtesertim.

The Province will find it* ir.dcmmfW cation in the augmented revenue which will be created by a more extended Trade.— But in order that this trade may tie beneficial it mu^t run in the most certain channel — It must have the pc->--r of dif¬ fusing as widelv as possible witbiri tJic British Possessions, it>: vivifying twecls* —These two important points indicate the River Oltawas ; let th- eo^.munica- tion between the River Ride; vx a-^ Ur n< Kingston, be adopted.
