THE BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS.
CONSTRUCTION iOF IMPORTANT LEVEEs.
ADJUDICATION OF CoxrRAcrs.

The new Board of Public Works act
with promptness and energy, and are doing
all in their power TO protect the sgricul-
tural interests of the State from losses by
overflow and inundation. They awarded,
yesterday, contracts for building levees, as
follows:
Fairview aud Red River Landing levee,
to j. P. Kennedy, at thirty-four cents per
cubic yard.
Lake Providence levee, to J. W. Burke.
at twenty-nine cents.
Alton levee, to John McGinty, at twen-
ty-nine cents.
Morgan levee, to James Nolan, at twen-
ty-seven cents.
All the contractors are experienced in
this kind of work, and were prompt in
presenting satisfactory security. The
Board appointed A. F. Wrotnowski as
draughtsman. The Board adjourned until
December 7, at which time the proposals
for building Grand levee will be opened.
The Picayune of this morning says, in
reference to levee matters:
All these adiudications are to old levee
contractors, who are familiar with the con-
struction of levees.
The Fairview and Red River levees, al
though not combined in the advertiser 0nt
for proposals, were adjudicated Jointly 10
Mr.. Kennedy, in preference to other bids,
because the aggregate of his bids upon the
two levees were lower than the bids of
others separately given, the Board de-
Gliding to combine the two in order to save
expense.
The specification for the work upon the
levees required that they shall be completed
by the first of February. We noticed in
our report of the bids yesterday that the
proposal of Mr.. L. Murphy for the Red
River levee was singularly above the mark
81 80 per cubic yard, while that of Mr..
Kennedy, to whom the building of this
levee has been intrusted, was only Sac.
Although Mr.. Kennedy is one of the most
competent and reliable levee contractors
in our State, we have been informed by q
gentleman who has had much experience
in the construction of levees in Louisiana.
and whose opinion is entitled to much
weight, that the Red River levee will
cost the contractor three times as much as
his bid to construct. Mr. Murphy, it
seems, had recently made personal sur
vey of this levee, and if all accounts of its
condition are true, his bid of 81 80 per
cubic yard was not so eXtravagant as it
seemed at first blush. However, this is a
matter which affects the contractor and not
the State, and we have only alluded to it
in order to place Mr.. Murphys bid in its
proper light
a depulation of planters from the parish
of Madison were in consultation with the
Board yesterday in reference to the build
ing the Mlllikens Bend levee, in order to
secure the most important portion of the
parish from overflow.
This levee is said to be one of the most
important below the Arkansas line.
