Kenosha Harbor.

We referred last week, to the action of the
House of Representatives on the bill for har-
Dor appropriation at this place. While the
question was up, Gen. Paine, member of Con-
gress from this district, read from the report
of the Government Engineer to the War De-
partment as follows
HARBoR OF KENosHA, WISCONSIN.
During the present season the contractors
have extended the south pier three hundred
and ffty-two feet, and will complete the exten-
sion ofthe north pier one hundred and ninety
two feet.
ga depth of twelve feet has been obtained
throughout the greater part of the waterway
between the piers, by dredging. The old piers
are in bad condition, and require rebuilding
from the water surface. The basin inside is
very shallow.
"The engineer in charge does not consider
1t necessary to extend the piers further at the
present time, but thinks it proper to repair the
old work and dredge the basin to the depth OF
ten feet for which he estimates''-
For repairs of old pier work ...... $50, 600
For dredging required in basin. ...,.... 80, 900
Total. .......................... .s55, 900
The Clerk read the clause as follows:
For Improvement of Kenosha harbor, Wis
consin, $4,000.
Mr.. PAINE. move to increase that to 500
900.
The amendment was agreed to.
Notwithstanding of Representative, Gen,
Paine is faithfully discharging his duties in the
matter, it is doubtful whether any appropria-
ton will finally pass both Houses of Congress
the present session for this or other points on
the western shore ofLake Michigan.

Negro Rul e.

Senator DoolittIe delivered speech in
Congress last week on his favorite theory of
negro suffrage. He repeated the often re-
peated charge of small politicians all over the
country, that the design of the Congressional
plan of reconstruction, is to give the negroes
supremacy in the Southern States Asan off
set to such assertion, it is only necessary to
say; that in every Southern State, except
South Carolina, the white population is in
excess over the black.
Registries were opened in all the Southern
states, and If the whites were too stupid or too
stubborn to register their names as voters,
who is to bla me?
Notwithstanding the white men did to a
considerable extent, neglect to vote at the
elections for delegates to the Constitutional
Conventions in the South, still in no single
state did the colored people obtain the as
tendency. Even in South Carolina, where
the negro population outnumbers the white,
the negroes are in the minority in the conyen-
ton. All this talk, therefore, about negro
domination and rule in the South. is sheer
nonsense.
If the South was ever in hazard of negro
supremacy, it was in elections which have
passed. The negroes but lately from bondage,
and invested with the right of suffrage, would
then more than ever, have made the attempt
to gain supremacy, had such thing been
practicable. Negro rule in the South is an
Iimpossibility, unless the whites in the South
choose to have it SO. If they ever have negro
supremacy, it win be through their own per-
verseness and obstinacy. In that event, who
will pity them?

attention is called, the Mayor says the
lime has come, when strenuous efforts

ment cf the city Indebtedness The mes.

WHAT DECISION ACHIEVES. - The firm
and decisive stand taken by Congress, in re.
spect the unconstructed south, has had the
effect to greatly strengthen the union SEN
timent. The loyal people in the south, were
being overawed by the rebel element, aud
1t needed the manifestation Of the uniinch-
ing purpose Of Congress, to carry out the plan
which had been marked out at the proceed
ing session. Any faltering on the part Of our
national legislature, would have embolden-
ed the rebels, and at the same time dishesrt-
ened the loyal men of the south. If Congress
continues TO show fxedness of determine.
ton, to aid in the establishment of Iozal
state governments in the states lately in
rebellion, the day cannot be distant. when
the union will be completely restored, aud
every state now out Of its proper rels.
ion, will again be represented in Cong ress.

Church Etiquette.

Church etiquette has been made the sub
ject of much ironical remark, as well as Sc.
rious thought. At Whitewater Wis. the
question has been discussed whether it is
proper for the congregation to turn around,
and face the music" during the si4ging
exercise. A writer in the Whitewater Reg
lister, suggests an improvement in church
etiquette of another kind, it is. as follows:
''For example, let two young ladies skilful
in matters of dress, be selected as ushers-one
for each aisle. After few persons are seated,
the duties of the heralds may begin. Walk
ing partly down the aisle, in order to be dis
tinctly seen or heard, the usher or herald will
proclaim, with proper tone OF voice: Mrs.
Jones : lavendar- colored silk dress, without
spangles black velvet cloak ; hundred and
fifty dollar set of mink furs, new style; water
fall of her own hair, set high upon her head
beau catcher on left forehead polish boots,
corn-colored silk hose; light Alexander
| gloves lava ear drops, diamond breast pin ;
! Ristori hat trimmed with on-colored rib
/ bon, with small rosette on right side slight
| tinge of carmine on each cheek, eye. brows
penciled, lirT artistically touched up with
! Venetian red 60. Then the second herald
will advanci he lisle and make her
proclamation ; Miss SmithGrs :bIaek alpac,
ca gored dress shlii trimmed with nail heads
and bodice with black velvet stripes fell in
the fire and frizzed her hair /; the usual num-
Der of rye straws on the top of her head, with

earrings jet breast pin, congress CATERS, white
linen hose :. shows her front teeth when she
smiles small pimple on left cheek, black
patch on chin checks little whittier than
usual; embroidered handkerchief around her
swan-like neck y and so on. Now, Mr.. Edi-
tor, submit that this arrangement would
not only save much Inconvenience to the au-
dience, but would also do away with much
WHO misunderstanding as to the peculiarities
OF Miss Smthers's costume. 1t would enable
every one to comprehend the situation per-
fectly, without the microscopic views now
deemed essential"
