Hoxie, subject to such moaiti- cations a8 Prof. Baird, of the Smithsonian Insti- tution, may suggest. The area of this pond will be upwards of eight acres. and it will be , formed by making an embankment of earth extending from the end of the old i7th street wharf to the monument lot, and will embrace the space between this banE and the roadway of Viiginia avenue. The bank has aiready been coustructed with theexception of adding the rip-rap lMping to it, and the basin is to Do Gug out to a depth requisite for the purpose. It will contain a small island In the middle. A Series of sinall pools are to be constructed in the roadway of Virginia avenue, six in — each 45 by 100 feet, for hatehiag purposes. iron pipe will connect with them all for ihe purpose of draining off the water tuto the sewer when necessary, and to be tsed also for toreing fresh water into the pools river. These pools will be elevated ons above tbe other in such a manner that fresh water will run Into them constantly from one to an- other, thus Bocuee aT a ctreulation, The ine when complete will add very matert- ally to the facilities for mulciptying these fish which are in such great demaud The na-x- Pended appropriation of $12,000 made last ses- s'0n of Congress will furnish means of meeting the cost Of this work.
