SURREY. 
Lately was opened. for the. public recep~ 
tion of merchants’ veffels, the Grand Surrey 
Canal Dock at Rotherhithe, amidf& the accla- 
mations of the populace, and a numerous af- 
femblage of the gentlemen proprietors, who 
aiterwards retired to the London Tavern, 
dined and fpent the evening with convivi- 
ality. The veffels entered the dock undera 
falute of cannon, ftreameis flying, with a 
martial band of mufic, playing popular airs. 
This dock or bafon from its extenfive capacity 
will contain about 100 fail of {quare- ngeged 
veflels at any draught of wate® in which 
they can approach the pool. This public 
work was firit fuggefted and laid out by Mr. 
Dodd, the engineer, and an act of parliament 
immediately aiter obtained Jor its executions 
The dock and main line of canal and col- 
lateral cuts are as:folluws he thip dock 
immediately comimunicating with the River 
Thames, a little below the King’s Mills, Ro- 
therhithe gives admiffion inzo the grand dock, 
or bafon. On the North, South, Ea‘t, and 
Wet fide of the latter, is an extenfive fite for 
building wharfs, warehoufes, &c. 3 and in the 
centre of the dock or bafon a large ifland 
for the fame purpofe, to which there is accefs 
by a draw-bridge. The convenience of this 
dock for the erestion of warechonfes, grana- 
ries, depots for coals, &c. fo near the metro- 
polis, fulhiciently ipeak for its utility. The 
miain line of canal palling from the dock or 
bafon runs nearly in a fouth line on the weft 
of Deptford, and trom thence ina weft line 
crofling the Kent, Camberwell, and Clapham 
roads, enrvers the Thames again at Vauxhall 
Creek, a little above the fite where the in- 
tended ftone bridye, now betore parliament, is 
propofed to be carried over the Thames. 
Attached to this main line is a collateral 
cut to Peckham, Horfemonger-lane, South- 
wark, and Butt-lane, Deptford ; ; the whole of 
this range o° eight miles is upon one entire 
level, without a lock, and peninfulates the 
fouth of the metropolis, with which the Croy- 
don Canal forms a junction, that is propofed 
to be finified in the courfe of this fummer, 
with the part of the main line before de- 
fcribed, now that the dock has opened a com- 
munication with the Thames. The upper 
lines and levels of this canal extend trom 
Kennington Common, along the wafh-way, 
to Rufhey Green, Stockwell, patling in the 
vicinity of Clapham and Tooting to Mitcham. 
The company of proprietors are now applying 
to parliament to make a collateral cut from 
the Bricklayers’ Arms to the main line of the 
canal near where it crofies the Kent Road, 
for the ufe of paflage-bouts, by which means 
much facility will be given to perfons pafling 
from London to Peckham, Deptford, Green- 
wich, and parts adjacent ; as well ag to Croy- 
don, oe hereafter to more diftant parts of the 
county. The capability o: extending this lineto 
Portsmouth,
