EMANCIPATION.

We have heard great deal of the fail
ure of negro emancipation in the British
West India Islands 1t is shown that their
exports have diminished, and that the ne
groes refuse to work for their former own /.
ers except al rates which are inconsistent
with the profits the latter desire to make
out of the former. But it does not seem
TO be made out at the same time that the
emancipated blacks enjoy less of the ne
cessaries and comforts of life and of the
means of moral and intellectual improve
ment than they did before. And yet it
would appear that emancipation could not
Justly be called failure unless its subjects

CoNGREss.-In Senate, yesterday, the
Naval Appropriation bill was taken up, and the
provision that Midshipmen and students in the Ma
val School be appointed from Congressional Dis
tricts as the West Point Cadets now are was, after
some discussion, stricken out, as were also ether
unimportant amendments. The appropriation for
the Brooklyn Navy Yard was increased from
Sl260 900 to $780, 900; that for the Charestown,
Mass, Yard from s2S,0OO to $4,000, and like
increase was made for all the Navy Yards.
Among the amendments adopted we find one to
complete Steyens's Steamship for Hsrbor De-
tense, and one applying Parsons Condenser to
the Engines Of the Steam Vessels of the NAVY
for the purpose of obtaining a supply of fresh
water. An amendment to purchase a site and
construct Navy \ ard at San Francisco. and ap-
propnating half million for that purpose, was
agreed to, but the appropriation for railroad and
basini was rejected. Another amendment CON-
pretending the provisions Of Dir. Stewards bill
for the exploration of the Northern Pacific and
China seas, was also adopted. The bill passed
as amended. The Light House bill also passed.
AT o'clock the Senate went into Executive Ses-
sion. AT q p. NJ. the doors opened. The pro-
ceedlngs which followed are interesting and i'm
portant, but We must refer the reader to the re-
port in the proper column.
In the House, it was agreed to print 100, 900
copies Of the Agrculturalpart of the Patent Office
Report, and $4,000 Of the Mechanical part. Mr..
Houston, from the Committee of Conference upon
Amendments to the General Appropriation bill,
made report. There were more than hundred
amendments, which were read, and, by the Speak
ers casting vete, the entire report was concurred
in. Various Senate Amendment, TO the Post
Office Route and Appropriation bills were non
cOncuned in. The one making the Wheeling and
Bridgeport Bridges legal structures and Post
Roads, passed. A variety Of business was trans
acted, and much confusion, though none of the
regular Congressional "scenes," was at times

REMOVAL OF THE OyERsLAUGH.-The
obstruction to the navigation Of the Hudson
River, known as the OyerslaIgh still remains NOT.
withstandng the numerous attempts heretofore
toward its removal. These have been chiefly d.
rected toward the excavation of channel but
the active causes that create the oyerslaugh have
endered these attempts unayailing.
1t is now proposed to remove this bar by mar
rowing the current above, and thus form channel
through it.
The reasons in favor OF this plan are, that most
rocky hartorS, as at Newport, Boston, and most
of the eastern ports, have no bars and where
there are no rocks most harbofs have bars.
Again the docks Of the City and Of Brooklyn,
have made wide and deep shannel in the East
River, more than fourth Of mile in width.
More recently, the docks in the North River Of
the City and of Jersey City have so deepened the
channel more than six mile, below, as to sink the
heads of the piers at Staten bland, and to cause
an active wear OF the bank of the nyer at the
Quarantine Ground.
The Hudson River is everywhere oil a width pro.
portioned to its depth.
Two large rivers the Hudson and the Mohawk.
unite above Albany; and, were their current suf-
iciently narrowed, must form nayigabe channel,
BY sinking on each channel bank Of the river,
imme diat.ly above the OSerslaugh two blocks o.
hydraulic cement, sand and stone, Twenty-Five
feet or moro in diameter, and sufficiently high to
be above the rise of the stream, narrowing the
current, channel of aaygable depth would be
formed.

To the Editor Of The ~ I. Tribune:
In behalf Of large number of sub
scrbers to your valuable journal, and in behalf of
numerous body of It's admirers who not but would

very small type In the columns Of reading matter.
You are aware that, from the necessity Of the case,
newspaper reading TO great extent mus. be done IN

for bis Newspaper necessity as well as relaxation
In these days of cheap printing materials, why should

say handsome, form Oculiss will tell you that the

of the chief causes Of this serious trouble

adopted, respectfully, AsCBScRibsR'
Reply.
There are more things in heaven and
earth than are dreamt of in our Subscribers phi
losophy, as we shall endeavor briefly to indicate.
To print The Tribune entirely in type not
smaller than Brewer, would oblge us either to
leave out half its reading matter, or double us
size.
Now, we could not double its size without dou-
bling its price, in which case half its present SUD.
scribers would feel obliged to renquish It ana
take some cheaper paper. few would greatly
prefer it thus at the advanced price but the great
majority Of readers are obliged to economic, and
shilling a week 10 an item they could not afford
to despise.
