TUESDAY, DEG. Il, 1882.
 On motion of Mir. CARR. of Indiana, the petitions of the citizens of the States of Kentucky and Indiana, praying for an appropriation 10 be made to improve the Indian Chute, through the fails of the Ohio river, which were referred to the Committee on Internal Improve ments at the last session Of Congress, and not acted upon, are again referred to said committee. In making this mo- tion,
 Mir. CARR remarked, that he pre- sumed the Committee to whom this sub, ject had heretofore been referred, might have been embarrassed in consequence of ofhaying lad reference toa reportmade by the engineer appointed on the part of the government some years ago, ,and who made report of his examination some time since. That he believed the con templated improvement differed from that reported by the engineer; that he had conyersed with many of the peti- toners, and others who felt much inter- est in the matter, many of whose opin- ions could be relied upon, who seem to think the best plan to improve the nayi- gation of the Ohio river at the Falls. would be to make an excavation at the head of the Indian Chute, about 400 yards in length, and 3O yards in width, averaging two feet six inches in depth. The greatest dcpthrequred at the pitch of the Falls Rapid will be five feet.- The surface of the water in the river will be maintained at its present level, by depositing the rock taken from the excavation on each side of the channel at its head, so as to prevent the water when at a low stage from flowing over a flat rock at the head of the Falls, in a sheet of at least 600 yards in width. which is now the case. About 200 yards below these rocks there is a clus. ter of loose rocks directly in the present channel, which are extremely danger ous, and very difficult to pass in safety. and heavy losses have been sustained by boats striking on them. They will re- quire to be removed.
 Near mile lower down there is q point of rock, projecting from Goose Island, about 300 feet in length, av. eraging about ninety feet in breadth and three feet in height above extreme low.water mark, forming ain abrupt bend in the channel, which creates a dangerous eddy, through which it k impossible 10 pass at medium stage O water, consequently they are compel led to pass over tue top of this point Q rock, and through d swell created by the current rolling over it of from five tt ten feet in height. This point of rocl will require to be removed at least fou feet below low watef mark, by whicl means the channel will be made straight and the eddy and the swell destroyed At the distance of about half mile be low this point of rock there are mum Der of loose rock which it will be neces sary to remove to complete the conteu
