The following suggestions are made with the view of pointing out that economy is practicable, and not for the purpose of finding fault with the general management, as it must be allowed by every unprejudiced person that the present state of the roads (with very few exceptions, reflects very great credit upon the road-trustees, their surveyors, and contractors. But it must be perfectly evident to any one who turns his attention to the subject, that a very important branch of the improved system of macadamizing the roads, namely, the cleansing process, is most inadequate to preserve the metal from unnecessary waste. The road is allowed to remain saturated with wet, after heavy rains, which doubly wears it by the action of carriage-wheels, compared with what it would be if kept in a dry state; independently of the additional draught imposed upon the horses employed in drawing every description of carriages, when the mud is allowed to remain in a waxy puddle, until it is either completely dried up, and carried off into clouds of dust, or again moistened into a pulp. The present system of cleansing practised (except in the immediate vicinity of cities and large towns) upon the country roads is, that when the autumnal rains set in, the roads are scraped by labourers previous to the winter coat of metal being laid on, a...
