A bulkhead must therefore be placed at the point C precisely of the height with the level uf the water in the Moliawk, a boat then in this low state of the river coming up Wood Creek to tke point C must unlade, and be drawn across the bulk head into the Canal ; th.ere reloaded and pi-oceed through the Canal into the Mohawk lliver ; but when the Moliawk River rises so much as that a qiiantily of water e(iual to caiiy an empty boat is added to the water in the river, the water on the bulk hccid will rise to nearly that height, and the empty boat will pass. If tlie rise be ecjual to the water drawn by a loadcil boat, the boat and its cargo will pass the bulk head into the Canal. It is evident by this ai«-angement the navigation of Wood Creek will l)e much m nded whenever tlie water in tlie Afoliawk is higlier than at present. The whole expence at this place will probably not exceed £3,000.
