TIE WECAGO HARROR,

Z. AT the present time no vessel drawing

because southe1ly wind has caused fall

- ing it impossible to get over the, bar.
When the Wlnu plune no1. tla, north.
northeast, or east, there is too much sea
!. op the bar to get either In or out. Thus is
the commerce Of Chicago reduced to still
days. We present the ridiculous and
calamitous spectacle of great CONNER
cial city, sitting down by our hafbor,
while the sand gradually walls US in. =
Nothing need be said about the impor-
tance Of our navigation. 1t has raised
Chicago from swamp to the first CON-
1ne1cial city of the seaboard-but our har-
bor through which all this wealth Of great
ness comes and goes, is almost the only
11ing We neglect
Who will make this improvement, and
how ahan it be done?
Clearly nothing can be expected Of the
General Government Then the people Of
Chicago must do it, either by an appropri-
ntion ut the Hands Of the city government,
or voluntary Subscriptions among our citi-
zens, or both.
We cannot wait for the next Legislature,
or an net might be had authorizing the
issue Of harbor bonds, the interest upon
which could be paid By tax on each
vessel clearing from the port; but tho
matter admits Of no such delay-this very

appoint committee to act conjointy

How ahall the work be done? TIVE
plans lave been suggested. One is to e1-
tend the present piers to point beyond
~ the.actfon Of the waves upon the sand, Of
precisely such character as the excellent
hafbor at Milwaukee On the same shore Of
the lake. Admit that the Milwaukee
/: Piers, being in bay, are not so subject to
4he action Of the wares and tand as at

hartor proves it to be q feasible plan, and
.: fhe fear that in twenty or thirty years the
sand may follow the piers out, making an
extension necessary, is not very forcible
;, objection to . people. whose barbor is be-
:. lng;entombed by the accretions Of o-day.
Another plan is to run out q pier from nca1
