 C. S. GZOWSKI, Esq., 
 
 ATIVE TO THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE DESJAIiDINS CANAL. 
 
 Engineer's Office, } 
 
 Toronto, 2yth September, 1846. ^ 
 
 To John Paterson, Esq., 
 
 President J D. C. Co. 
 
 Sir, — In compliance with your request, I have ex- 
 ined the entire length of the Desjardins Canal, and 
 
 ilVe the honor to submit the following Report and Esti- 
 i||lte for improving it. 
 
 * The peculiar locality of this Canal, admits of the 
 Ingestion of numerous plans for its improvement j and, 
 lidcordingly, several modes have been proposed in which 
 t<j improve the present Canal. 
 
 In addition to the several modes of improving the 
 Cftnal through the marsh, a deviation from the present 
 line has been proposed, by making a thorough cut through 
 twe high land, for the purpose of saving a considerable • 
 distance in the length of the Canal. 
 
 n^ I have carefully examined all the plans, estimates, 
 afid reports, for those different improvements and alter- 
 ations from the present line, and though I find them all 
 
 W&rfectlv practicabjp. vnt thn moMnQ in wWxrh iho Cnm. 
 
22 
 
 pany are bound to confine themselves for the present, 
 will not admit of adopting either of these plans proposed, 
 or of undertaking any thing beyond what is absolutely 
 necessary to render the present line of Canal available 
 for the use of all such craft as ply on the waters of Lake 
 Ontario and the river St. Lawrence. 
 
 In making, therefore, my examinations, and trying 
 to determine upon a plan for improving that work, I 
 have assumed the following points as my general data : 
 
 First,^To make the present line of Canal (with but 
 slight deviations) answer the purpose. 
 
 Second,-— To secure the same depth of water in this, 
 as in the Burlington Bay Canal. 
 
 Third,— To protect the sides of the Canal in such 
 a manner as to prevent the mud and muck from lodging 
 within its limits, and to form a towing path through the 
 entire length of it. 
 
 When these three points are attained, I consider the 
 work available for all the present purposes, and, in a 
 proper state, realize such a revenue as the business of 
 the country, and an uninterrupted navigation, and the 
 facilities for a direct shipment of all produce to the best 
 markets, can secure. 
 
 The manner in which I propose to construct the 
 different portions of the work, and which forms the data 
 of the accompanying estimate, is as follows :— 
 
 From the Warehouse, at the outlet of the Canal, 
 in the Burlington Bay, to the point called Crooks's 
 Pomt, (from W. to B. in the accompanying sketch.) I 
 propose to straiten the present line of Canal in the man- 
 ner marked in the sketch, in red.

 The width of the Canal, between those points, to be 
 100 feet, depth 12 feet 
 
 The towing path is to be on the south side of the 
 Canal, and is to be constructed on piles driven close to- 
 gether. 
 
 Eight feet in the rear of them, and six feet apart, 
 are to be driven anchor piles, which are to be tied to the 
 front piles by ties eight feet long. * 
 
 Longitudinal timbers are to be placed on the ties, 
 and covered with plank three inches thick. 
 
 A protection railway, three feet high, is to be placed 
 on the Canal side of the towing path. (See accompany- 
 ing sketch, A.) 
 
 The north side of the Canal I propose to protect by 
 driving piles close together, but at such points only as 
 will be considered necessary to prevent the muck and 
 mud from washing into the Canal. In many places it is 
 of great depth, and quite clear from any deposit; and, 
 at these points, no protection is required at present. 
 
 From Crooks's Point to the basin at Dundas, I pro- 
 pose to follow the course of the present line, leaving the 
 width of the Canal as it is at present, 66 feet, but in- 
 creasing the depth to 12 feet. 
 
 The north bank of the Canal, between those points, 
 being sufficiently firm and of very nearly the proper 
 height for a towing path, I propose to change the tow- 
 ing path from the south to the north side of the Canal, 
 and construct a change swing bridge at the Point. 
 
 At places where the present bank of the Canal will 
 require to be raised to bring it to the proper height for a 
 tow path, I propose to raise it with earth obtained from 
 Crooks's Point, Maitland's fsland. anH fmm fho »n^t«''i"1

 dredged out of the bottom of the Canal, which, on this 
 portion ofit,is well suited for that purpose. 
 . To reduce the pressure on the sides of the Canal 
 from the earth forcing, the towing path, I propose tS 
 a hne of five feet between the edge of the Canal and th« 
 foot of the towing path. (See accompanying sketch B ) 
 To prevent the wash of the banksf caLd t the 
 action of water on th^ during the passage of boatTand 
 
 Canal and reducing its depth, I propose to drive piles 10 
 feet apart on both sides of the Canal, and to pKm 
 bers SIX inches thick and four feet in width, and at Jrh 
 height as to prevent any wave, during the passage of a 
 boat, from reaching and washing the earth either above 
 or below the timbers. (See accompanying sketch, B.) 
 _ The present swing bridges will require some altera- 
 tions and improvements, the cost of which is embraced 
 m the accompanying estimate.

 The above estimate embraces the cost of all the 
 work that I consider necessary for the improvement of 
 the Canal, and the prices put on the different materials 
 are such as will ensure their delivery upon the work, and 
 its completion. 
 
 The item of Dredging I have not entered in detail, 
 not being able to ascertain the exact quantity of earth 
 that it will be necessary to remove ; but from the sound- 
 ing that I have taken, I am of opinion that the sum esti- 
 mated, is quite sufficient to cover the cost of that portion 
 of the work. 
 
 The manner which I propose to construct the tow- 
 ing path, below Crooks's Point, is such, that at any fu- 
 ture time, and when it will be desirable to construct the 
 towing path in a permanent manner, and of imperishable

 materials, the whole of the work now proposed can be 
 made use of as a foundation for the new one 
 
 The towing path above Crooks's Point I look uoon 
 as permanent ; forshould it be found necessaryat any 
 time to increase the present width of that portion of the 
 Canal, the proper side to be removed, in my Til " 
 the south Side 3 the banks on that lide being oTie 
 ^eight, aud of softer materials, and consequently can be 
 J-emoved at much less expense. ^ ^

 REPORT 
 
 OF THE PRESIDENT AND DIRECTORS, SUBMITTED AT THE 
 MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS, HELD IN TORONTO iStir 
 JANUARY, 1849. ' 
 
 To the Stockholders of the Desjardins Canal Company : 
 
 Having, in accordance with your request, (one, we 
 may observe, to respond to which gives us sincere plea- 
 sure,) placed before you a full, and, we trust, satisfactory 
 statement of the financial affairs of the Company ; and, 
 
 being desirous of putting every Stockholder in possession 
 ot the fullest intelligence in reference to the work in 
 every pomt of view, at once, as to its present condition, 
 the general prospects of the Company, and also in refer- 
 ence to the policy which we, on behalf of the Company, 
 m the management of its affairs, have heretofore thought 
 It prudent to adopt, we have prepared a brief Report, 
 which we would now respectfully submit for your consi- 
 deration. 
 
 It will doubtless be remembered by the Stockhold- 
 ers, that during the year 1846, C. S. Gzowski, Esq., Ci- 
 vil Engmeer, was employed on behalf of the Company 
 to survey the Canal, and officially report thereon, fur- 
 nishing, at the same time, in view of the completion of 
 the work, correct estimates of the probable expense,~a 
 copy of which Report, with estimates, we have now the 
 pleasure to lay before you. 
 
 It will be observed, that the necessary enlargement 
 of the Canal Basin is not included in the estimates sub- 
 
 ^

 the President and Directors, although second^^ none in 
 
 heir anxiety to secure its completion, and, at the same 
 
 wit's n^r "^ ''' P"'^"' ^"^'^^"^^^ '^ "^^t the 
 wants of the community, are, nevertheless, decidedly of 
 he opmion th^y have ever held-an opinion in wLh 
 they were fully supported by the Engineer, Mr.Gzowski 
 -that It would be worse than useless, in fact, a complete 
 squandering of the funds of the Company, to attempt to 
 make any improvement on the Canal, until the requisite 
 amount is at their disposal ; and to prove satisfactorily 
 to every mdividual that such is the case, they have only 
 to refer to this feature of Mr. Gzowski's Report, that a 
 sum, equal to £20,000, is the estimated expense of se- 
 curing the banks ; while a sum of between £4000 and 
 £5000 IS only required for the purpose of excavation, 
 and, included in this, is the construction of the tow-path • 
 and as the permanency of the work wholly depends upon 
 the preliminary step of properly, and efficiently securinij 
 the banks, the correctness of the position assumed is, in 
 their opinion, self-evident. 
 
 In conclusion, the President and Directors would 
 assure the Stockholdcrs,that nothinir shall be wnntiniron
