THE Horse SHoE.-The Board of United
States Engineers appointed to examine and re-
port upon some plan to prevent the ice gorging
in the Delaware at the Horseshoe, completed
their labors by agreeing to report upon the plan
submitted by Col. Kurtz His plan, as has
heretofore been stated, proposed to construct
crib work ON iron piles, which are to be driven
in straight line from Gloucester Point to Eagle
Point on the Jersey shore, and from Greenwich
Point to the head of League Island, and from
the mouth of the Schpylkill to point below
The piles will be so driven that each two will
form triangle in order to resist the pressure of
the ice. The average width between the rows
of piles on the east and west side of the river
will be about 1000 feet The cost of the work
is estimated at about 81, 900, 600, towards which
| an Appropriation of $4,000 has been made
The Committee of Councils Oh Distractions in
! the Delaware met withthe Board In Philadelphia
and expressed themselves pleased with the plan
proposed.
