from TO IL feet OF W alter in il. This work was
planned by Mr.. w. ID. Wise, and he being Sec
onded by Col. Benton and Gen Ramsey the
work was put through rapidly, the object be-
ing to aoate the ulsance in the shape of an
extensive n arsh lying between the Arsenal and
Buzzard Point, and to reclaim the ground
Residen Is in the vicinity escaped usual sick
ness originating from the marsh last season.
The Canal was made by first driving piles.
ranging from ten to forty feet in length, and
then excayating with mud mac ines and filling
in behind the piles. In this manner much
ground, which would, otherwise, remained
useless, has been made ready for occupancy
BY buildings, workshops, &c.
During the progress OF the work ute a mum
Der OF Indian relics, such as pesrles, with
which corn was beaten, axes, spear and arrow

They were mostly taken from one spot within
an area OF 80 feet. and IL Is believed they were
once used by the Anacostia tribe of Indians,
who in habited This region, and who formerly
had fishing station about that point.
