at her father with such violence that he i'm

IMPROVEMENT OF THE kANAwHA RIVERA cor
respondent of the Lewisburg Era, gives the fol-
lowing information in regard to this great i'm
proyement. The writer says: "The object is to
form an inland lake, or reservoir ofwater, to keep
up the navigation of Kanawha River. The reser-
yoir which we are now surveying,wll be made,by
making dam between the two mountains, across
Big Sewell Creek The dam is to be GAS feet
long, 80 feet high, 400 feet thick, at the base and
as feet at the top. At either side of the dam,
will be made immense sluices, to carry the water
away; which would naturally flow over the dam,
when it gets full. The sluices to be made of Ma
sonry of the most substantial kind. The water is
to be kept in this lake until it is needed in the ka-
nawha, when it is to 10 let off rs it is needed to
keep up the navigation of the river. The means
of letting it of will be by means of Locks. You
can form some idea of the amount of water it will
hold when tell you it is to be 25 miles long and
from 1000 feet to mile and 1 wide. There is
an immense AMOUNT of speculation about this
great work. the probable cost, &c. Mr.. Taylor
SAYS that the dam will cost above 5000, 600. The
cost of the land will be the greatest drawback on
the enterprise. 1t will cover about $4,000 acres
of land, besides $4,000 acres more which will have
to be paid for, by the Company, because it will
be account to the owners being oil mountain
land, and remnants of Farms. / suppose 81 $780,
900, will not buy the land and pay the damages.
What time it will take this reservoir to fill will,
suppose. depend on circumstances There ore
Creeks flowing into it. The object is, after the
lake gets full Of water, to cut through the dyid-
ing ridge. between the lake and Greenbrier River
and make canal through the cut, Mr.. Elicit is
