Something new.-The following para-

On Mond.ry and "Fiiesday the following
novel experiment of locomotive steam power
was tried on the Firth and Clyde canal.
Mr. John M Neil, the civil engineer of the
Clyde n ivigation, has had constructed on the
banks of the canal a railway upon blocks, on
which a locomotive engine has been put,
which was used on the above named days in-
stead of horses, to draw the canal boats, and
succeeded in taking them the whole distance
of the line at the rate of 18 miles an hour.-—
'I‘be company having ascertained the full
success of the experiment, will construct a
