OUR LEVEE SYSTEM.
False ldsas In Regard to It-SSmsthlHg for
PIaylus" to Suggest"

Captain A. A. Humphries and
Lieutenant H. l.. Abbott (RepOrt
upon the Physics and Hydraulics Of
the Mississippi river; upon the pro-
lection of the alluvial region against
overflow; and upon the deepening of
the mOuths-Washington, 1867-page
1881 say:
1.-The area Of the alluvial land. under
cultivation below the mouth Of Red river
is not less than 1,000, 600 acres, which, at
Sl0e per acre by no mesBs an extrsvagant
estimste) gives 500 O0O, 900 for the value
Of the plantations in thst section, max
ing . total value of $3.50, 600, 600 for the
land that viii be rendered perpetually
oultiysble by the expenditure Of 81, ,OOO,-
Geo."
And this great achievement is to be
accomplished simply by erecting
levees upon the margin Of the serpen-
tine banks o q very shifting and fluc-
tuating river, having, in 1858, at high
water, between banks, from the Ohio
river down to the Arkansas river, a
maximum width OF 1910 feet, and a
minimum width of 2240 feet; from the
Arkansas river to Red river, a maxi
mum width OF 1900 feet, and a mini
mum width Of 2350 feet; and bends
extending laterally about ten miles.
our thesis is; That, without a
DroDer regulation of the Mississippi
river. 1t IS utterly impossible to make
the levees permanent, ana eonse-
quently to render the alluvial land
4" perpetually cultivaDle."
1t is certainly absurd to assert, that
the low lands Of the Mississippi river
can be rendered peTpetually cutivable
simply by levees, regardless Of the
consequences Of the general elevation
o. the bed Of the MississipFe by the
aetTitas, brought down nom the
higher regions by the river and its

tributaries, or of the elevation cOnse-
quent on the reflex effect Of the elOn-
cation of the bed of the river, by the
deposits at its mouth, which elOnga-
ton Is estimated in the report at 700
feet per annum. The result Is, that
the foods of the Mississippi cOntinu-
ally increase in intensity, and the
levees necessarily become insufficient
for the protection of the low lands
against inundaIiOn.
The Mississippi river being In its
natural state, the adjacent sWamps
and lOW-lands were filed and COW
cred with water in time of food; they
formed receptacles for the aceumula-
ton Of a great quantity Of water, and
secured the lower portion of the river
from the destructive ravages of high
floods. These basins retained the wa
ters until they were gradually dis
charged through the river, leaving IN
them a large portion Of the detri-
tus, thus lessening the deposits in the
Mississippi.
These natural regulators of the
hight of the feOds being shut of, by
inclOsing the river between leYees, the
effect must necessarily be raising Of
the surface of the water, and, in time
of flood, to an alarming extent in the
ObstrUcted meandering river below.
1t is also important to consider the
ordinary causes of the incOnstancy Of
the river, such as the sinuOsities Of its
course, the variations of its width and
depth, and the irregularities of its
slope. In order TO correct the evils
resulting from these causes, it would
be necessary: l. To remove the
prominent sinuosities which throw
the,curTent'successfully from one bank
to the other; 2. to regulate the slope;
3. To establish a proper cross section
in proportion to the volume of water
of the greatest flOodsI 4. TOadjust the
direction Of the discharge of the
tributaries into the main river; 8. To
centralize the current so that the
greatest depth and velocity may be
in the middle Of the bed; and, 6. To
construct in the bed Of the river such
artificial works as may be necessary
to maintain the uniformity Of the
section and slope, and to prevent alb
rasiOn and scOurage, which destroy
the regularity Of the regimen.
will e6ectltally regulate and contne
the river by means of levees, must be
based upon these principles. But the
advocates of the levee system have
generally paid no attention to them,
and have restricted themselves to the
mere construction of levees upon the
margin of the meandering river as
the sole protection and universal
pauscea against floods. They have
failed to apply themselves to the task
of giving to the bed between the
levees a particular 'Orm and direction;
in one word, they have neglected the
foundation Of their work, and una
vOidablv it must come to ultimate
destruction.
The regulation of the Mississippi
would cost far less than the levees,
which system, as heretofore in opera
ton on its banks, is radically defec-
tive, and will never render the allUvial
lands below the mouth Of Red river
" perpetuslly cultivable."

to Onr 81. New York built the
Erie canal to control the trade Of the
West, which she enjoys almost undis-
turbed to this day. France built the
Suez canal to compete for the trade Of
the East, which since before the days Of
solomon has proven remunerative.
Chicago built a road to the West be-
fore her connections with the East
were completed In order that she
might become the central point for
stream of trade and commerce that
has made her the astonishment
Of mankind. We, too, have
had our eyes turned to the setting

Of our wealth. five are to make this
spring perpetual we must nurse it

Chicago Of the Southwest, as we now
promise, we must, like Chicago, own
and control our freight lines and
must directly profit by their earnings.
Men ride in other peoples carriages
only until they can buy one Of their
own. None Of US pay toll cheerfully.
It is human nature to desire perfect
freedom-freedom Of any control or
dictation. If Memphis would
be perfectly free of all outside infu-
ence, she must have entire control of
her carrying trade. Our bankers who
profit by exchange and cotton bills,
our insurance companies who reap
rich harvests upon open policies, and
our cotton and grocery merchants
who make handsome commissions on
Arkansas cotton and fair profits on
returning goods sold, all must come
up, and by an effort, such as will show
that we are a United9peOple, and not a
mob without community aim or
purpose, furnish the money needed
to save US from the degTa-

Net His Dread Fate.

NEW YORK, May 18.-A Special
from BinghamptOn says that as fur
ther evidence than RulOff's denial
that any confession has been made by
him il may be stated that Root, the
Sheriff of TOmpkins county, was to
have the confession, for which Ru-
loft demanded $4,000 payable to his
brother, but that he would make it
only by the consent of that relative,
That consent was asked, but RulOff's
brother answered that he would rather
pay SIC, 600 than receive a single dol
lar on any such conditions, and posi-
lively refused his consent. This an
sWer was reported to Ruloff, and he
has not yet told Root anything. That
gentleman was in his (RulOffs) cell
at half past twelve O'Clock this morn
ing, but RulOf never opened his lips
concerning his past misdeeds. He
for moment seemed about TO talk,
saying "things about here viii be all
huTly burly tomorrow, and had bet
ter do all my talking tonight" but
after few rambling remarks of no
consequence he turned to his dictfon-
ary and renewed his pathological Ia
bOrs. His general demeanOr is yet
unchanged.

A great Pennsylvania firm Of iron

submitted a proposition to the Diree-

bama, we may form some ade-
quate conception Of the bene-
factions done the State by the
indomitable energy Of the builders Of
the Alsbama and Chattanooga road.
II is a foul shame, when men are in
volved in difficulties by the execution
Of a task so benehcent that there are
those in New York who seek to rob
them even Of the just rewards Of their
tireless lsbors. The war in Europe
destroyed the negOtiabIe'value Of Ala
hama securities, and all railway bull
ders, except Stanton, abandoned their
contracts with the State. With great
dimculty and by extraordinary
risks he has achieved his aims,
and to day is the greatest ben
efactor Alabama has ever known.

NEW ORLEANS, May 19.-The
American Union Club entertained
Mr.. Greeley this afternoon. Mr..
Greeley made a speech, in which he
said: ''This is my first visit to the

voted to the good of all the people.
They are not my enemies now, who
were five or six years ago. L bear
hatred to no one" He believed the
best men should occupy the best places,
without any reference to bygones. The
peril which necessitated the exclusion
Of some men from the ballot box no
longer exists. He isopposed TO disfran-
chisement as it is no longer q necessity.
There would not be Ku-Klux in the
land now if there had been 3 general
amnesty five years ago. It would
have united the people and healed
the wounds produced by the war.
For that he had struggled. and the
time was not far distant when every
American would have his fair say at
the ballot box, and a majority would
rule.
