Tho investigation ordered by the Board

failure Of tho roof Of tho wcst wing Of the
Court HOUSE, has established pretty con-
clusively the fact that tho combined Wis

The nrchitect leaned on the contractor, and
the contractor leaned On the architect, and
the root leaned on itself, till il got ti1od,
and then it came down.
It appears that the architect, Mr. Rose,
either did not know how an iron roof
should be designed, or thought that Mr.
Lctz knew 20 mrch better than himself,

the specifications over to the latter, thereby

there can be no objection to Senator
Osborne by himself, or ,any other enter

trolling, as it docs the navigation Of the

people of Kcntucky and Tennessee doing
business on that river, to know tla& its nav
igation is controlled by Paducah.
