Burrows, super. intendent in charge of the work, under the gen- eral supervision of Lieut. F¥V. Greene, assistant engineer of the District, in charge of streets, avenues and roads. The taking up of the old gravel and rock bed, put down by the board of Public works, and relaying it, was completed year, 7,400 lineal feet, or to the point where the Qock creek church road intersects the 7th street pike. The ling and macadamizing of this road by the ‘of public works was a vast improvement upon the old dirt road, yet it was found by experience that the blue stone boulders forming the foundation, were quite too large, and hot having been properly laid the road soon wore into ruts by the immense travel over it, and required almost constant watching and frequent repairs to keep it in a passable con- dition. “After a full examination into its con- struction and its condition at that time Lieut. Greene concluded that it was neces- sary totake up the whole length of it and have it relaid. The work was commenced at Bound- ary street and carried out as far as Summy’s hill, when the appropriation run out, and the work had to be suspended. PROGRESS OF THE WORK THIS SEASON. The improved character of the constructed portion so mucl: pleased the citizens of the coun- 'y that an almost universal demand was made for carrying the improvement as far as the Dis- rict line. This is now being done under the ‘wperintendency of Mr. Burrows. The work was resumed on the 5th of July, with the same | gang of men employed last year, all experienced in the manner of its execution. The force em- ployed embraces thirty-three laborers, fourteen carts and horses, six two horse wagons for haul- ing stone and gravel, and an iron roller waigh- ing 10,000 pounds drawn by four horses. HOW THE WORK IS DONE. The old gravel bed has to be removed on the macadamized portion (which was originally six- teen feet in width), and the bed-rock of large boulders broken into small pieces of uniform size. This macadamized portion lies in the center of the roadway. which is fifty feet wide from gutter to gutter. It is now being increased two feet, making a uniform width of eighteen feet all the way to the boundary, with a hard rolled gravel Toadway on either size, each sixteen feet wide. In addition to the utilization of the old rock foundation a new surface of white flint rock has | been added, the flint broken into pieces of a uni- form size, and rolled level; after which a water- ut_on, which precedes the roller, is passing over, and packing the stone almost as solid as a ledge., All depressions are at once filled with flint stone, and the Tolling process is kept up continuously two hours over every one hundred square ‘ds. Much of this flint is ground to sharp sand, by the immense weight of 10,600 pounds of iron roller passing over it, and the drenching from the water cart washes the sand downwards, thus packing all the instertices in the bed, and’ when dry it is as solid asa continuous ledge. On top of this is spread one and a-half inches of gravel of a uniform size, which is also rolled and washed in with the sprinkling process. This is the finishing pro- cess, and when done the roadway is as EASY TO RIDE OVER as an asphaltum pavement. ‘That portion which was finished up last. ye: though it has stood the frosts of as severe a winter as was ever known in this vicinit and with increased tra’ yet it has sustained no holds its own, and al- | The contest over the crossing of the Balti: and Ohio tracks bythe George's Creek and Cumberland road was ended yesterday, as briefly announced in Tae Star. Cumberland was in a state Crypts all day Sunday, as it was expected that the ay crisis would be attended with Be tenes ache cn The officials of the George’s Toad are quoted as haying announced Sunday that peace- able measures having been exhausted, they had decided to resort to force. ions that were being made, evidently for the purpose of executing forcible measures, were interrupted about eight o'clock Sunday evening by the re- ceipt of a telegram by Mr. Loveridge, ident of the George's Creek road, from Mr. Robert Garrett, vice president of the Baltimore and Ohio road, stating that the crossing would be put in the next day (Monday), orders to that effect having been issued to the proper persons. Mr. Garrett, it is. said, was on his way from Berkely Springs to Baltimore when apprised the Relay House that the new com- nies were making a demonstration involving force. Yesterday morning great activity was manifest at the disputed point, and as soon as the crossing was laid it was tried and found to work admirably. The first train stopped was drawn by engine 274 with fifty coal cars, which arrived from the west at the “viaduct about 11 o'clock and was delayed only a few minutes. As soon as the crossing was placed in position, the | work being witnessed by an immense crowd, in- cluding many officials of the several railroad companies, workmen commenced making pre- Parations to put in connection at Polk street, which was completed in the afternoon. About one hundred and fifty miners were present when the work commenced, and about noon two hun- dred more, with a band of music, arrived. They were disappointed over the cancelling of an ex- cursion train by President Loveridge, which was done to prevent any disturbance, and paid their fare, and were determined to have a good | time generally, yesterday being a holiday in an- | ticipation of ‘this event. Cumberland is now | quiet, and much relief is felt that the contest is | over. — Of For Camp. DEPARTURE OF THE W. L. I. CORPS. This morning, at 7:15, the Washington Light Infantry, Capt. W. G. Moore, left on a special train, for the White Sulphur Springs, near War- renton, Va., where they will go into camp until Thursday next. ‘The parade to the Riggs House was omitted, and the honorary members joined the command at the depot.” At a few minutes to 7 o'clock the command emerged from the armory, in the Globe Building, and headed by the band of the second U.S. artillery, (from the arsenal), marched tothe B. and P. depot. There were nearly 100 men in line, in the fatigue uni- form of the corps, with shakoes, and they made @ gocd appearance. Col. Moore, with Lieuten- ants Dalton, Ross, Goddard and Miller officered the command. Quite a large number of friends of the corps, including ladies, were at the depot to give the boys a parting salute. The train was a special—five minutes behind the regular train. Privates Buck, Ward and Ed. Neumeyer, the committee on arrangements, have erected twenty | tents, fourteam feet by fourteen feet, capable of accommodating ten men each, on a hill about two hundred yards from the hotel, at and adja- cent to a beautiful glade and cool spring of water. During the encampment strict military discipline will be maintained. To-night and to- morrow night balls will be given in honor of the visitors.

Mrs. Leonard, while crossing 9th street, near E street, was knocked down and injured by a mule and covered wagon which ran against her. She was conveyed to her home, 1213 E street. No blame is attached to the driver of the wagon, a boy named Jesse Thomas. Between 7 and 8 o'clock last evening a slight fire occurred on Bot street, near 7thstreet, inasmall frame house owned by Mrs. Harris and used by F. W. Koss. It was extinguished by the police without turning in analarm. Loss, #20. It is thoughtito have been the work of an incendiary.

The new comet has not yet been observed at the Naval Observatory, no especial attempt having been mada to find it. The observers at | night are so busily engaged in taking the time | of the “Clock” stars, which regulate all the clocks in the United States, that they have little | Opportunity to angle for comets with the comet | seeker. The data describing the position of the | Rew comet is so contradictory that it probably can only be found by a careful hunt. THE COMET OF 1812. The new comet has been announced by Prof. Swift as identical with the comet of 1812. The period of the comet was computed by Encke to | be 70.68 years. If these figures are correct, it | would be due next year. The orbits of comets are subject to so many perturbing influences, and the slightest error in observations makes such a big difference in the final result of the calculations, that astronomers would consider the comet very prompt and faithful, and the cal- culation comparatively accurate, if it did not vary more than a year. PROFESSOR HALL ON THE OLD COMET. “Has anything been done toward fixing the period of the old comet yet?” asked THE Star | of Professor Hall. “That has not been computed yet,” he replied. “Tt can only be done after a long series of obser- vations. It may be several months before it is announced. We will observe the comet for tw or three months yet, after it has become invisible to you with the naked eye.” PROF. FRISBY’S CALCULATIONS. Prof. Frisby, who obtained the elements of the comet’s orbit,’ is continuing his computations | with the view of ascertaining the form of the | orbit. The indications are that the orbit is | elliptical, in which case the return of the comet | within a few thousand years can be confidently | expected. The astronomer bases his caleula- | tion on the assumption that the orbit describes |aparabola. Finding that the middle point of work. eee erng tek Pl Ye = 4 PROTEST AGAINST STIMULANTS. Eéilor Star :—In the spirit of honest inquiry I desire to ask, through the columns of your pa- per, the physicians who are attending our hon- ored President, what hygienic or scientific reason has led them to administer alcohol in any shape to their patient? While the President was lying prostrated from the shock, I can see where slight stimulants might have been called for; but now, while he is making such a fearful struggie for existence, aud every particle of his energy is needed to assist nature in her efforts to repair the damages done by the assassin’s bullet, I can conceive no reason of introducing into the stom- ach of the patient an article that physiologists have long ago decided is incapable of being di- gested, and possesses not the slightest power of assisting nature in renewing or repairing dis- eased or injured tissues. Scientists have posi- tively affirmed that alcohol in any shape, when brought into contact with the delicate organs of the human system, altcays produces injurious consequences. The albuminons portions of the food that the President takes is the material out of which | nature draws its supplies to repair the lacerated | an parts, This being tht case, it can readily be | P seen that a large proportion of the food the patient consumes is rob! parts, for the simple reason that every drop of albumen that comes in contact witha drop of alcohol is at once coagulated and thus renders it unfit for the office for which it was intended. Noristhisall, for, as has already been stated, alco | hol being incapable of being digested, it is taken up and circulated through the system as an ir-! ritant, inflaming and disturbing every part of the organism with which it comes in contact. It undergoes little, if any, change while in the system and continues its ruinous effects until nature expels it, and the amount of energy necessary to expel this poison is just so much taken from the great force that is indispensable to the recovery of the patient. Then, if as | chemistry teaches, alcohol prevents the proper assimilation of food, and learned physiologists | contend that it is only an irritant, and that an | extra effort is required to rid the system of it, I most respectfully ask, why do gentlemen at- tending the President administer it in his case? I wish it understood I entertain only the kindest feelings and respect for the physicians who have 80 faithfully cared for our noble President, and would state in closing that it is only n concern for his yaluable life that has prompted me in making this communication. ©.
