THURSDAY, APRIL "a, 1878.

The Board of Survey on the improvement OF
the harbor of Washington and Georgetown
have made report, which recommends. the es-
Enlistment of deep water line from George
town, stretching in curves along tho present
channel past the Long Bridge to deep water
opposite Giesboro Point, forming tor the whole
length channel twcnty-three feet deep. The
fats from Seventeenth street to tho Long
Bridge to be filled up, and sold as reclaimed
property, which it is estimated can be sold tor
SIS, 900. The Washington Chronicle says
the cost of the entire work, including grading,
filing, removal Of rock, and constructing bulk
head is estimated for permanent work OF the
first class at Sc, 100000; for work some OF which
may be temporary at $4.ll2,Ooo. Ii the re-
claimed land be estimated even as low as Is cts

The Baltimore Sun says that lit is estimated
that this year the number of people who are
resolved to ''do" Europe is about twenty-one
thousand Preparations have been made for
that number by the steamship lines sailing
from New York during the months indicated.
Applications for berths have been making this
season four weeks earlier than usual, notwlth-
standing that nearly all companies had raised
the passenger rate considerably. The alarm
caused by the recent disasters has induced
many persons to abandon their intention OF
crossing the ocean, but it is asserted that this
has only narrowed the demand for passages to
the carrying capacity Of the vessels; and, it is
thought, if some such calamity had not oc-
Cured, enough steamers could not have been
found to accommodate the multitudes who had
determined to visit Europe duriug the coming
simmer -

has lately had at St. Petersburg, a full conference
with IN eminent German professor of jurispru-
,lencc, the subject being the establishment Of
Christianity as the State religion Of Japan, the
ambassadors regarding the change as probable
and favorable, but the professor argued earnest
Iy and learnedly to dissuade them from the
project, and after listening eagerly to his argu-
ments, the ambassadors expressed satisfaction
with the advice.

The Petersburg Appeal says :-"Our motto
is Virginia for anybody who will work, regard
less of his antecedents or nativity. From the
four points Of the compass, and from oil inter-
mediate points We say let them come And
not only do We say let them come, but urge
them to come. This is the feeling of the vast
majority of the Virginia people. Our gates
are thrown open, and our hands are extended
IN welcome to all comers" This is the proper
spirit, and the true feeling.

Mr.. Stewart has been suffering it is said
from disease for two or three years, though it is
only very lately that it has declared itself in
that form. He has been man Of vigorous
constitution, and such great force of will, that,
in spite of his ailmcnt he has devoted himself
strictly to the personal management Of his i'm
mcnsc business. He has not been absent until
recently from his private office in his wholesale
establishment, for single day, except Sunday
and when he has been out Of town, tor num-
Der of years. and the fact that he is now com
pclled to remain in his chamber shows how
very i'll he must be. 1t has lo1g been his habit
to visit his retail store punctually at ~ Q clock
every morning, and to go through every depart
mcnt After that, he has shut himself up in
his Office at the corner Of Broadway and Cham
bers streets, and remained there until or in
the evening
Hardly any man in town has worked harder
than Stewart; and it may be fairly said, pecu-
niarily speaking, that be has been rewarded for
his industry, as he must now be worth fully
and it is whispered that in it are several large
requests to charitable objects, which will sur
prise the great mass of people who have never
lie has never had any children, and his direct
can hardly imagine what he can do with his
money, unless he should leave it for some
elccmosyuary purpose.
The story is again current that be has given
to the city his new and splendid mansion lit is
SO called, though it really looks like a vast
white scpulchre) to be used as an art-gallery,
including his own collection Of pictures and
marbles. There are also rumors of large funds
for the establishment OF public library mu-
scum and hospital; but all this is mere conjecture
since nobody except the lawyers, SO far as known
has ever seen the will. Still. there is good,
reason to believe that the greater part of his
property will be devoted to public charities and
municipal benefit.
Stewart, like joey Bagstock is very toughand
dcvlish sly, aud may alter all astoulsh folks by
an early recovery, aud by continuing in business
for some years longer. He is now II, and can
not, in the course Of nature, live moro than half
a century lopgcr.-N. Y. Ledger.
