This famous ojd water-way had Its birth in nn act of tho Pcur.ylvnnla Legislature, February 25, ' 1820 -From Philadelphia to Pittsburg the distanco is S01 tulles. From tho Delaware to the Susquehanna, 01 ndlos, the'ro was n very rudo and primitive railroad, tho motlvo power of which was at first horso power. At Columbia, 'somo 22 miles below Hnrrisburg, on tho Sus quehanna tho cnnal proper began which extended along tho banks of tho Sus quehanna and Juniata clear up to" Hol lidaysburg at tho foot of tho Alleghony mountains, a distanco of 170 miles. Then enmo Inclined planes and a port ago railway oyer thp dividing rldgo a'hd along a tunnel of a Jittlo over ono mllo in length to Johnstown, 30 miles and then again a canal along and down tho wntors of the Allegheny to Pittsburg. This canal was 4 feet deep, -10 feet wide, wator surface, 21 foot at tho bot tom, with locks 00 by 15 feet. Between the Susquehanna and Ilollidaysburgh wero 18 dams, 33 aqueducts 101 locks and nn elevation of 748 feet. Tho Jun latn was also canalized somo ViYi mile In that distance i. c, usod as slackwator. Between Johnstown and Pittsburg thoro was a descent of 471 feet; 08 locks, 2 tunnels, 10 aqueducts, 152 bridges, 250 culverts and 21 miles of slackwater. It was truly a magnificent picco of en gineering and called forth tho admira tion of this Western World cspocially tho inclined plaucs and portage railroad which in itself cost a littlo moro than $45,000 a mile. Tho expense of the wholo undertaking was over 10 mil lions of dollars 2 millions nnro than the Erie Canal, which it execoded hi length 31 miles. Tho canal was begun at Columbia on the Susquehanna July 4. 1820, aud completed to Ilollidays burgh in 8 years. Tho work at Pitts burgh was begun in 1820 and opened up for navigation to -Johnstown In 1830. The inclined planes and portage rail road wero begun in 1820 and finished in 5 years. From tho head of tho lock basin on the canal to the opening of the tunnel on the side of the ridge 015 feet; on tho Western sido of tho mountain, i. e., from tho canal basin at Johnstown to the summit was 741 feet making in nil an clovation from the Susque hanna to the crest of tho Alleghouics of 228S feet or that which would bo n perpendicular clovation of more than 2-5 of a mile. Wo mention thesi figures to show tho great magnitude of tho un dertaking. Tho Erio Canal by tho means of lakes conquered 580 Jeet in 3G0 miles. The Pennsylvania Canal, by locks and pprtage railroad, 2,2S8 feet in 320 miles. It is not to bo wondered at that tho Empiro State found a way to tho lakes boforo tho Key stono State got out to the Ohio Valley. Locking at tho Mohawk, tho portage at Rome, tho depression at Wood Creek, tho long level stretches of Lako Onoida and tho easy descent to tho Ontario at Oswego, one cannot but say that thero was cortainly a very easy way morked out by naturo to build a canal from tho Hudson River to Lake Erie. Tho inclined plaucs between the east and west sides of tho mountain wero 10 in number 5 levels on tho eastern and G on tho western.

Consider ing tho coach and, tho wagon to have been tho natural means of communica tion wo can say that tho l'ortfigo Hall way was tho first artificial means of communication botween the Eust and tho Mississippi basin. Well might tlio great English Engineer Stevenon say that "iu boldness of design and in dif ficulty pf execution, this railway cquld bo compared with no othor modern work. unless oxcoption was made for tho passage of tho Simplon or Mt C'unis in tho Alps!" Up to that timo the MorrU Cannl between tho Hudson and tho Delaware was tho only cnnal in America in which boats were moved from different levels by means of inclined planes in stead of looks.

Tho monoy was not spent iu vain. Dickons iu his American not.s gives ono many interesting glimpses of tho historic old ditch when ho was n trav eler on it in 1S-11. It was from his en tertaining pages that tho writor whon a littlo boy first learned of the wutor-way that.crossed tho mountains. Today as tho traveller over tho Penn sylvania Contrnl Railroad coming from Hnrrisburg to Pittsburg comiM flying nlong tho banks of tho lovely .ind ro mntio Juniata ho sees tho abandoned canal and tho rotting old cnml boats for many a mllo.
