General I. c. Hindman, in q letter to tho Hcc-
na Clarion, makes an important suggestion in rc-
gard to the protection of the lands along the Mis-
sissippi river from overflow. He says that the
leyces have proved unreliable, and his plan is to
create side ,irais east and west OF the Mssissip-
nj, CARRYING directly to the Gulf so much of its
surplus waters that its natural banks will DO Il
sufficient barrier for the rest. For example, II
drain across the Cumberland with 4 steamboat
canal turning, its excess into tho Tennessee, and
another drain and canal divcrting the excessive
Tennessee waters into the Tombigbce or Chatta-
hoochio would afford the drain on tho cast side,
and that of the west would be provided by similar
dams and canals, turning the surplus watcrs ol
the Platte through Grand river into the Arkansas
those of the latter into Bayou Bartholomew ttlIcir
ancient channel), and those of Rcd river and its
tributaries into the Atc!Iafalaya. Whether the
plan is practc ,Jlc or not must be tested by actual
surveys.

s;der the various clauses of disfranchisemcnt &C.

ton of the original act denies the right to vote to

enlarged disqualification and requires the appli-

for participation i'll any rebellion or civil war
against the United States, nor for felony commit
cd against the laws of any State OF the United

What then works q dsfranchisement under
these provisions? Whether we consider this disa-
bility as arising out of participation in rebellion
or commission Of felony, the mere fact of partci-
patton or commission of felonious offenc docs not
Of itself work disfranchsement. 1t must be as-
ccrtained by the Judgment of the court or leglsa-
tive act passed by competent authority, disfran-
chisemcnt for felony committed arainst the laws
of State or the United States, consequent on .
conviction in the courts, either of the United
States II of q State, or declared by the laws OF
