WASHINGTON.


NEW YORK, July ia Washington special
says that several lawyers are engaged there di-

libel suit, and briefs for the argument of the
case before Judge Blatchford have been pre-
pared. The case as it is developing has far
greater Importance than its incidental connec-
ton with Dana. 1t is claimed that as the DO
lice court of the district exists by act of Con-
gress within the territory where Congress has
the exclusive jurisdiction of all the offences
against the United States in the District of
Columbia, and not punishable by Imprisonment
in the pententiary, that all editors Of all news
papers whose journals are sent into the district
are answerable to this court upon complaint of
any person made before it; that such newspa-
per containing matter held to be libellous may
be brought before it from any part of the Unit

vailing here, which makes libel criminal of

CLEARING THE CHANNEL.-For the past TWEEN
ty years there has partially INSTRUCTED the ship
channel, one of the avenues from Portland har-
Dor to the ocean, the wreck of a vessel loaded
with bricks Gen. HI. Thorn, United States En-
gineer, has recently been arranging to remove
this obstruction to navigation, and yesterday
morning accompanied by party of ladies and
gentlemen sailed down the harbor in the gov
eminent schooner to the spot where the wreck
lay. Submarine divers then descended and
placed in the most available place in the wreck
explosive material, which they had brought
with them for the purpose of breaking up the
frame. They then lighted the fuses and re-
turned to the schooner to await the result. They
did not have to wait long. When the explosion
took place the scene presented was magnificent.
Bricks, timber and water in one grand mass
went high up into the air, A solid column of
water was thrown up with an effect exceeding
the highest anticipations of those who witness
ed it. The blasts were repeated until in the
opinion of Gen. Thorn the vessel was sufficiently
disintegrated. The operations of the divers, in
assuming their armor and moving beneath the
water, were deeply interesting to those who
were present

The Portland Bridge.

Mr. EDIToR,-Several items touching the at
fair of s'that crossing at the Cape Elizabeth
bridge have recently appeared in the PRESS,
wherein certain important points have been
overlooked, and some little errors have found
place. The recent interruption OF funeral
procession, noticed by the AduertiSer,was an al
fair lamentable enough and serve to illustrately
how great an embarrassment to the business
and convenience of the public may Immediate
arise from little lack of a full knowledge of
the peculiar conditions existing at that public
crossing. or a little further disregard of the
passing public by those operating the railroad.
The recent Superintendent had need to learn
the working of the delicate machinery at that
point, and all candid men will admit that his
management in view of his embarrassments
otherwise, was a success. His successor, al
though his efforts may be as great, can hardly
hope to succeed so well for little time at least,
especially if his subordnates are inclined to be
somewhat careless and regardless. The changes
already made are an improvement as to grade
and location, and should the newly laid tracks
be used properly and not in violation of the
laws of the State, the people of Cape Elizabeth
anu the pubic al large WAL NV AoSi W 'hHhS
any objection. Other changes, as the laying of
a new track across the old highway near the
thanking of the bridge, thus converting the
whole area thence to Commercial and State
streets, into a railroad yard is considered
doubtful experiment, wherein the doubts are all
favorable to the railroad corporations-as to the
way by the rear of the depot to State street
wharf; that is only private way over private
property subject 10 the determination of the
owners thereof. There appears an error, too
concerning ''the most Objectionable of those il
legal tracks, for the proposition contemplates
the removal of only the little spur track lead
ing to the long unused little engine house or
turn-table, the entrance to which has been
boarded over for, 10! these many moons. Of
all the tracks across the old highway this little
one is the least Objectionable. Cape Elizabeth
people are well satisfied with the way which
they at great expense have provided for them
selves at grade, if they can enjoy the passage
thereof freed from obstruction and danger, yet
they are not so unprogressive as to stand in the
way of improvement and development. They
are willing to enter into any new arrangement
whereinsthey may not be made unreasOnably
the sufferers and burden bearers.
