Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

The capital of each wns $400,000. The schemes were both examined, and pionounced practicable, by Mr. Wcsten, an accomplished surveyor. The cost of the first he estimated at $400,000, of the second at $1,221,330. The secretary of the navy, however, in his report, differed from Mr Westen, and made tlie cost of the fiist amount to #530,000. In 1794, the sums expended on the first amounted to $420,000; and at that tinin not more than one third of it was completed. As its funds were expended, and no more could be procured, no further progress was made. Id relation to the other, the result was still more unfortunate. In 1796 it was so near completion, that in two weeks it might have been in use. There had been authorized in its favour twolotteriss, from the first drawn of which was realized the sum of $50,000, but owing to ill conduct on the part of the persons intrusted with the management of the second, its prizes were not paid; and by these means the company lust the funds necessary for its purposes. The principal difficulties had been already overcome; the heavy digging of the summit level, the towing paths nnd locks were all very nearly finished. The company was by this disaster thrown back; a considerable number of the subscribers declined to pay their instalments; suits were instituted by claimants; the sites were, in many instances, sold by the sheiiff; and thus, all hopes of the immediate improve ment of...
