' the navigaion, in the condition in which it will
be placed tn the opening of Vie spring , trede, will
be adequat e , , when fully supplied with boats, to the
convenient transit of a million and a lialf of tons.
. Much more can be pasted, but this is probably
as large a'_ quantity as it would be judicious to
force throkg,h a set of single locks. 1 •

A double set of large locks, whenever the trade
is sufficient to' jiititify their construction, will,
