After the execution of the operations re- ferred to the river will naturally tend to as- | sume the regimen it would if the plan of the board were completed. This tendeney would become more decided if the portion of Alex- arder’s Island which lies next to the Long Bridge, and a partof the bridge itseif, were also removed, leaving & water-way of avout 2,700 feet in width between the island and the remnant of the bridge. THE LONG B&IDGE PRORLE By the removal of the bridge one of the railroad connections with Virginia would be | broken. Mr. Abert therefore recommends | that this part of the plan sball remain anex- | eeuted until a provision for the transit of | trains and wagons can be settled. He sug- | pests asa ible solation of this difficulty | the erection of a bridge with a draw of not less than 200 feet span, the remaining span being not less than 400 feet. Mr. Abert then goes on to explain what he has doue, and says :—In order toexplain the changes which | have taken place since the last excavation, | Iwould state that in 1871 acut of 200 feet | wide was made through the bar above the | Long Bridge. The work was begun under the cirection of Col. Craighi!l, and compieted in December, isi1. ‘The cut was intended to | have a width of 200 feet and a depth of 15 fect at mean low water, but during the progress of the work the freshets which occurred caused some filling in, and reduced the depth to from 13 to H4 feet at low water. These | DEPTHS HAVE BEEN CONSIDERABLY RE- UCED by natural canses, the survey not showing more than 11 « feet, while in 1871 the depth bad ranged from 13 to 14 feet. The length of the bar between the U-feet curves was 4,000 | feet. Below the Long bridge the least depth | was 134 feet and the length of the bar be- tween ibe 15-feet curves 2,100 feet. The work was offered for contract and awarded August 2sth, 1874, to W. H. Beard, of Brooklyn, N. Y. Operations were com- menced by the contractor on September 15th, isv4, with one eepes machine; a secoud e beirg placed on the work September 30th. The channel above the bridge was first dredged, the material being deposited on THE ADJACENT FLATS, ard along the line of the proposed wharves. Piles were driven (o mark the line and con- fine the dredged material. Work was con- Unued until December 22, 1874 when extreme | cold necessitated a suspension of operations which could not be resumed until March 9, L The upper channel was completed April 27th, and the lower commenced April 2th. On May 20th the dredging machines were withdrawn, and on June 24th the work was completed. The amount of excavation above the bridge was 114,550 cubic yards, below 31,871 total of 146,331 cubic yards. As the work ap i completion it was | found that a balance remained over, which, by the conditions of the act of appropriation, might be applied to the removal of the DANGEROUS ROCKS FROM THE HARBOR OF | GEORGETOWN.

Langhorne, of this city, entered a suit before Fastice Hughes against John T. Henderson, recover #10, the amount paid for four elgh tickets in the Montpelier Female Humane Association Lottery. Hen was a0 agent here, and admitted by his Attorney, Mr. C. P. Harmon, the sale of the tickets. Mr. Langhorne appeared in his own behalf, and claimed that under section 1,175, page 136, Consolidated Statutes, relating to the Dis- trict, a contract for the sale of lottery tickets is void, and the purehaser has the right to recover back money paid for such. The defendant argued that tickets were not lottery tickets, and therefore this law did not apply. Justice Hughes to-day rendered judgement for the defendant as the tickets on their face showed that they entitled the holder to admisston to the en- tertainment. and there was nothing to show that they were for a lottery. eee THE ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE CANAL PAYMASTER FAWCETT._A man named Barney MeWade was arrested in Cumber- land yesterday on the charge of being one of the three who last week attempted lo assas- sipate Paymaster Fawcett, of the Chesa- ake and Ohio canal, while he was making is regular trip to pay off thehands.

It was not designed by them. It was temporary, while the object of the board was the permanent improvement | | of the river. : { | Ifthis plan is tobe carried ont in parts, | much will be saved by making nature an auxiliary. This can be done by making the | regimen of the rivers conform to the lines as | | Shown in the charts prepared to accompany | the report of the board. Easby’s Point and | the left side of Analostan Island should be | cut away s0 as to couform to these lines. THE REMOVAL OF EASBY'S POINT | and the north and west portions of Analos- | tan Island would have the effect of training | the river in gently sweeping curves, and the | consequent enlargement of water-wa: | relieve Georgetown of the likely to oceur at the hi; | time. But in cutting necessary to remove @ amount of rock | than was at first anticipated, and this | of the estimate will have to be proportion- ably increased; al! by more modifying the lines so as to encroach less upon the land, the cost of rock excavation will be m: terially reduced. But before Lieal oper | ations can be; the title to the land must be extinguished by purchase, and the diffi | cult question of valuation must be decided. | The next step should be | THE REMOVAL OF ANALOSTAN ISLAND. ineluded between the limits marked on the chart of the river; but before this is done | | provision should be made for the transit of | trains ard for ordinary travel. | . The enlargement of the water way at the Aqueduct bridge and the deepening of the cbapnel behind Analostan island, are parts of the improvements. Whether the streets should be promptly extended to the deep water or only 80 bear as will accommodate the trade of the city, are questions for con- sideration. By extending the streets the water space tween them will be partially filed by the deposit brought down by the floods, and this would be an econornical method if the dredged material did not ex- ceed the quantity required to make the fill- ing on the flats. “The necessity of reducing the pro; depth in the channel would cause a considerable reduction in the amount of gredging. which would practicaliy equal- ize the filling and excavation, and would largely reduce the cost. The question is im- portant in another respect, since it will be diffieuit to find suitable places of deposit for the excess of excavation.
