Review Of Reviews. The canal: system: of the state of New York now consists of one trunk branch: canals. The main trunk canal: is the world-famed Erie, extending from Buffalo to. Troy, whence boats go by: the Hudson river to New York. The: Oswego canal ex: tends from Onondaga lake, near Syra- cuse, to Oswego; the Champlain, irom the Hudson river, near Troy, up the banks of the. river to Fort Edward, thence to: Whitehall, on Lake Cham: plain. Formerly there were three other lateral canals; reaching ' the southern sections of the state at Olean, Elmira, and Binghatniton; but these have long since been abandoned, as has the Delaware & Hudson canal, connecting the Hudson river with the anthracite coal regions, which was owned by a private company. The three existing canals, are the only ones considered in the great scheme of improvement for which the New York legislature has proposed the ex penditure of 8101,000,000. The Erie canal is now 352 miles long, has a depth of from 7 to 9 feét, and a width on the bottom of 52} feet. The capacity of its boats is 240 tons. The variations "in depth are due to the fact that the improvements begun in 1845 were left uncompleted. The Os- wego canal is 38 miles long, with the same varying depth as the Erie; and the Champlain canal is 66 miles long, with 7 feet as its greatest depth and 5 as its governing depth. What is now proposed is to enlarge all three of these canals, to a uni- form depth of 12 feet, with 'a mini- mum bottom width of 75 feet, making them capable of carrying boats 150 feet long, 25 feet beam, and with a draught of 10 feet. The carga capa: city of these boats will be 1,000 tons, or more than four times that of the present boats. This amounts practie- allv to building a new canal system, and for considerable portions of the routeg foilowed it will be a new dis nal, involving the total departure from and abandonment of the present, channels, Where the early engineers preferred to dig a ditch along the bank of a natural water course, the new plan calls for the utilization of rivers and lakes as much as practic able. Boats will use the Niagara river between Buffalo and Tonawanda: in- stead of an aqueduct at Rochester, a pool will be formed by a dam in the Genesee river south of that city, rais- ing the river to the canal level; the Seneca and Oneida rivers will be uti- lized and the canal carried through Oveida lake, and the Mohawk river will be canalized from ° Little Falls nearly to Cohoes. In like manner the Hudson river will be utilized 'as far north as Fort Edward. This will shorten the Erie canal to 342 miles, the Oswego to 23 miles, and the Champlain will remain of about the same length as at present. The undertaking thus planned is al most as great an enterprise for to- day as was the building of the origin- al Erie canal for its day. It is a greater public improvement for the state of NewYork to carry out than is the Panama canal for the United States government, and enthusiasts believe it is of hardly less commercial valve. . Jt cost will be more than half the estimates for the Panama, Enterprise Etchings.

Death Of Alexander Cowan, Of Lansdowne, Gananoque Reporter . : Another of the: oldest residents; in ed away last Thumday, shortly after noon, at his farm home seven niileh east of Gananogue, aged eighty -- k vears and nine months, ee. Mr. Cowan' wag born near | v, Scotland, but. was brought to Can ada when only seventeen months old. He was thil. Son of the late John Cowan, "Pittsburg. 'vo brothers - Alexander and: John Cowan--immigra ted to Canada and settled in Norfolk county about the year 1817. They had been Shere but a short time when their uncle, "a military officer, died and left them a tract of land in the township of Pittsburg, Frontenac county. It was then a wilderness, with not a 'clearing on it. But the two mien with their families came down to occupy it, travelling the 250 miles with ox teams and on foot. Fach of them had large families pnd gs time ppssed and their sons and daughters grew up and made homes for" themselves, the Cowan ponnedtion Dugas: large one. ar first land was along -the St. Lawrence River," seven miles west of Gananoque; and eleven miles east of Kingston, and extending back a mile and a half. lexander's family re' mained near the homestead, buying land near it as they required, and forming the Cowan settlement. of Pittsburgh. John and some of his family also remained there; but three of his sons took "wp land farther east, two miles from Uananoque, in the: township of Leeds, and were known as the leads Cowans Alex. Cowan, now deceased, was the youngest of these three. He lived nearest to Gananoque. His first wife was Miss /Huldah Parmenter, sister to, the late Messrs. J. W. and Joel D. Parmenter. She died without leaviis any family. About thirty years dj Mr. Cowan marvieds Miss Mary Jane: Cranston, who survives him, children. In the fall of 1878 he dis posed of ' his farm in bought from the late Noah Peck, a beautiful level farm, part' of what was called the "Hays land," ian Laos downe, on front road, near the Keyes side road, seven miles east of Gan- anoque, where the rest of his life was spent. . Mr. Cowan's life, though a long one, was not an eventful one. There was but one period during which he "left his farm and occupation. That was during the rebellion of 1537, when he did militacy service at Kingston, Pres cott and other places. He served un der his uncle Alexander, who was cap tain. He was at the battle. of the Windmill, and was on duty at the execution of Schultz at Kingston, be ing then a sergeant, Having spent his. younger days in the woods, where game of all sorts abounded, he naturally became a great sporteman, and for many years, was reputed to be the best rifle shooter in the district. He was also a noted checker player, and generally of a most genial and convivial disposi tion, which rendered him exceedingly popular, At the same time he was a man who attended faithfully to his own affairs, and only indulged in amusement . when such relaxation did not require him to neglect his busi ness. He was a thbroughly honorable man in every respect; liberal, kind hearted, and always ready to do a neighborly service; but. not inclined for public office or any self advancement outside of his own affairs. He was ac tive until a few weeks before his death. He Knows.
