The carrying place of two miles from Rome l' Wood Creek, descending west to thc Oneida Lake, has been removed by a Canal ni Lock and the nieanderipgs of Wood Creek, for JO miles, have been shortened one half, and thc navigation of the trcek vastly improved. 1 counted in that descent I EU distinct points of laud on shores.
