The new cut on the Union Canal from Lei- 
cester to Harborough (through Foxton) was 
opened on Friday the 13th November. Pp-- 
wards of 10,000 persons were present, and a 
sumptuous entertainment was given at the 
Angel Inn in Harborough, to about one 
hundred and <eighty gentlemen interested 
in the concern. Thus have the Union Ca- 
nal company, after a period of 15 yéars frem 
its commencement, finished a work of great 
public utility. Very few canals in the same 
distance, have had to encounter such difficule 
ties in the course of the undertaking. Nearly 
200 feet of lockage, a tunnel, more than 
half a mile in length, two considerable aque- 
ducts, other large emvarkments, a. large re 
servoir, and several hundred yards of very 
deep cutting, have been completed.
