LeicesTERSHIRE. 
The proprietors of the Leicefterfhire canal 
have, very juftly, announced their intentions to 
apply to parliament for authority to increafe the 
tonnage rates upon the navigation. 
The. corporation of Leicefier have patriotically 
contributed the fum of zocol. towards affifiing 
government in raifing the fipplies for the enfu- 
ing year. A very laudable example, which de- 
ferves general imitation. 
The works on the Afhby de Ja Zouch canal 
are in a forward ftate, the moft difficult parts of 
the undertaking, particularly the funnel at 
Snareftone, being already completed; when 
navigable, river boats of forty tons burthen may 
fail upon the fame.
