Ths Celebrated EngIHssF at the Chamber Of
GemmsrOs-Hls Scientific Lecture.
Full Explanation Of HE Plans for 0bVIatlBg
the Difficulties Encountered at the
Mouth Of the Mississippi.
A Very Interesting Resume Of what He has
Done In EaF0Be and Proposes to Do
10 L6ulslana-He Is laa0rssd
BY the GbambsF.

Colonel GOWan, as was announced pre-,
Yiously, address ed the Chamber of Com
MERGE yesterday afternoon upon his plan
for Obviating the difficulties of navigation
at the mouth Of the Mississippi. He him,
self called his address "e lecture" which
it was, and one of much scientific value.
He set out with some general remarks
about ship-rsising; gave a brief account
of 1.-THE various inventions that were from
time to time used by maritime nations for
the purpOss of raising sunkeu ships. He
gave an account of one of his early sue
cessful attempts at raising the hull of a
sunken vessel on Lake Erie, which was
burned, and was said to contain $40O, 600.
When the hull was fOatsd sure enough a
great mass of metal was found which was
commonly thought 90 be smalgamated
gold and silver. He was offered $4,000
for a share in this salvage, but refused
The mass being submitted to an ~assayist
be WIS informed after six days
spent in analysis, that there was about
seven hundred dollars worth of silver,
and a lot OF copper, etc, which WAS used
on the vessel in the snaps of bolts, etc.
He passed TO his great undertaking OF
raising over seventy ships of war that had
been sunk in the harbor of SebastopOl.
All these ships were built for wal pur-
poses; some OF the largest size armed and
equipped, with all their guns n shot
on board. The account he gave of the
difficulties he found it necessary to over
come; OF how he had to go into the inte-
riOr one thousand miles, to get the timber
TO construct his csisOns or floating docks,
which he furnished with engines and
other lifting apparatus, which gave a total
lifting power OF five thousand tons; with
these he raised all the ships, and trans
ported them five miles, to be locked and
repaired. He then went into the merits
of his proposed plan for carrying the
largest sized ships over the bar, at the
mouth of the Mississippi.

A TOUCHING INCIDENTAL poor little
newsboy while attempting to jump from a
city car, fell under the car-wheels, and was
fearfully mangled. As soon as the child
could speak, he called piteously for his
mother, and messenger was sent at once
to bring her to him.
When the bereaved mother arrived, she
hung over the dying boy in an agony of
grief
Mother" he whispered, with painful
effort, " 1 sold four misrepresentation
money is in my pocket"
With the hand of death upon his brow,
the last thought of the suffering child was
for the poor, hard-workins mother, whose
burdens he was striving to tighten when he
lost his life.
