 This Canal win be finished during the present year, to admU the fhe^ pass^c 
 «/• Vessels between those Lakes, by the Nirjara and Wetland Jtivers,- to effect which, 
 the Sum of Fifty Thousand Pounds is required, which it is proposed to raise, by disposing 
 of the Stock now on ha^, .i«. 2467 Shares, equal to £S(i,m, and procuring a Loan 
 from Government for the remainder. 
 
 Although there is reason to suppose, from the extent of country connected by 
 so short a c^a, ami at so trifling an expense, (as well as from the Revenue actuaUy 
 received on the Erie Canal, which commences immediately opposite it,) that it may prove 
 a profitable investment, although they are induced to Subscribe the Sums opposite their 
 respective names, in consideration of the Public advantages the Colony must derive from 
 the undertaking being speedily completed. 
 
The Money mil be required as follows :--^5 per T^em. m bi paid into the hands 
 of the Bankers of the Company on or before 30M June next. — 25 per Cent, on or before 
 SOth September. — 25 per Cent, on or before 30th December ; and the remainder on the 
 \st February, 1829.
