(This Pemert has been ppplighead. in wader Bae for temporary relief recommended embraces much of the plans heretofore sugzested by Messrs. Severson, Wise, and Ellis, for the per- manent improvement of the Canal, and though the cost is far greater than was then estimated, the plan for temporary relief combines much that is material und absolutely necessary for the purpose of sewerage and commerce. ‘The abatement of this nuisance as well as the improvement in amore permanent manner of ue Caual, has been to allof usa inatter of anxiety and interest, and has, as you are aware, been delayed so long, only for the want of a plan definite in character and certain to effect the object intended as well asthe want of means to meet the expense. The means suggested in this report, for “tem- porary relief,” will command the confidence of all,.and will soon be followed by a more elab- orate report from the same souree, of a plan tor the more permanent improvement of the canal for the purposes of commerce and sew- erage. It behooves us, therefore, now to provide the necessary means to meet the expense of this work. Appreciating the urgent necessity for its immediate commencement, aad to meet the ex- igency L have already memoralized Congress, setung forth the claim J thought we had on the General Government for their aid in the premises, and asking it rgd did not deem it obligatory on the General Government to af- tord the assisiance songht, at least to enable this Corporation to make the improvements, by passing an set to enable it to raise the ne- cessary means. A copy of which memorial I also transmit herewith. Very respectfully, Ricard WaLLacn, Mayor. The tol ing is the memorial: “Mayor's Orricx, Ciry Hatt, Wasnine- Ton, D. C., April 7, 1866.—To the Honorable, the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States: 1 deem it my daty to lay before your honorable bodies the following statement of the claim of the city of Washington to what is known as the Washingtog City Canal, in order that you may act advisedly inthe matter of depriving this city of its right to that property, a bill for which is now before the Senate The Washington City Canal, asiaid down in the original plan of the city of Washington, was projected by General Washington, and was, umong other things, intended as part of a scheme to connect the Western waters with the Chesapeake Bay. Upon this work the States of Maryland and Virginia spent, previous to the year 1900, upwaras of five hundred thoa- dollars, and it flually culminated into what is now the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal. A joint stock comp1ny was formed to open and cut the canal as laid down on the plan of the city, and on the Ist of May, 1402, was chartered by Congress, the stock being made personal roperty. (Statutesat Large, Vol 2, page 177.) The Canal wgs cut and opened % this com- pany. who fully complied with the require- ments of their charter, and enjoyed by them for about thirty years, when, with the consent of Congress, it was purchased at great cost by the Cor ion of Washington. (Statutes at Large, Vol. 4, page 522.) The act of Con- gmess authorizing the purchase, entailed a wavy additional burden on the Corpora- 1,‘0@ Of Washington, by compelling it to ch Wage the course of and the can “4. building three } basis # 82d to drain certain Gene. 4 Goverument, the low diately west Signed: and expensive oO) t accomplish this object, and street ¥ vest. particula ty to apeews its own property, (the drainage ct these low grounds), the Gearral Government, by the same act, donated cer:ain lots, being a VOrtion of those given to it by the original prop.*etors of the soil on which the seat of the Gen ral Governmentstands, Sub- sequently, hoy ‘ever, in consideration of the relinquishment, this Corporation, of all claim and title to ‘ese lots as well as tocertain. age heey gh ‘ges conferred on i of May 31, 1S2, and ; Wore partien! sideration of the work to be done by poration in improving » U4 draini perty of neral GV! the low. grounds, ) Congress gave t.

The canal is therefore the property of the Corporation, and essential to it not only for commercial pur- Poses, but likewise for what is of vital ampor- tance, (and should always be subject to mu- Ricipal control and regulation,) its sewerage, And itis respectfully submitted that tne Cor- poration’s right thereto, and property thereia, should in no way be impaired, and that the General Government should contribute to- wards its improvement and the abatement of this much complained of nuisance cause the surface, (area of the city, eventually drained by it, was made inordi- nately large for governmental purposes. 2d Because the General Government owns neariy One-half of the property in this city to be ben- efitted by the canal. jd. Because it is essen- tial to the General Go in transport- ing coal and other material to the Arsenal aad Navy Yard. 4th. Becanse the General Gov- ernment deprived the ¢ ot Washington of the benefi asa Tee of Tevenue. Sth Because the General Government caused and occasioned its being a nuisance. 6th. Because the General Government, for the purposes ot the war, closed and destroyed the aqueduct and canal from Georgetown to Alexandria, one of the outlets of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal, into the Pote c Fiver, and should therefore aid in making another in Meu thereof. This Corporauon bas ever man- ifested a desire to and make the canal purposes of commerce only been prevented m doi, by the wantof means. If, therefore, vour honorable bodies do not deem it obligatory on the General Government to aid the Corporation of Wash- ington in accomplishing so desirable an object as the improvementot the canal, and the abate- ment of so great a nuisance. this Corporauon would respectiully ask that you would enable it to do so, by the passage of an agt empower- ing the Corporation to raise the money, by imposition of a special tax on the proper the city, and carry out the recommendation of the eminent engineers detailed by the President ot the United States, under a resolution of the Senate, both for the temporary present im- provement of the canal for sanitary parposes and a further and more peri nt improve- ment for the purposes of sewerage and com- merce.

CONGRESSIONAL. IN THE SENaTE—Yesterday afternoon tue fold Bill was discussed at ponsiderable length— ©. Chandler said: Iam sorry that the Sen- ator from Maine (Mr. Fessendeny seems so Anxious to press this bill toa vote to-day. 1 am desirous that a full Senate’ should be pres- ent. In my opinion, if passed, it will be the most dangerous bill ever passed by Congress. 1 move, Mr. President, to recommit the will to the Committee on Finance. Mr. McDougall said the late Secretary (Ohief Justice Chase) never had any finan ial pole cy. The present Secretary came into oifice with the confidence of ali in bis »bility as a financier, and has established a policy. Sena- tors seem un willing to trust the Secretary. but it is a feature of republican government that public servants must be trusted. The question was Len taken on *he motion of Mr. Chandler‘) recommit; which was de. cided in the megaciye. The question wa- iben taken on the amend- ment offered by } tater ahseh wr, = the amrmatvé pew ier, - ard, Howe. Norton, Sherman, and Wade.
