The Passes of The MisSi.Siupi.

Correspondence of the New York Trbune.i
Mr.. Clayton unaccountabiy objected to
the immediate consideration OF the bill
fayorably reported from the Senate Com
mittee on Commerce giving the Secretary
of War power to establish regulations for
the use of the passes of the Mississippi
while the engineer officers are at work
dredging out the channel. The govern
ment is now spending at the Balize about
5000 900, and under the most favorable cir
cumstances, and by the use of the most i'm
proved dredges. is only able to keep open
I. channel twenty feet deep. But the New
Orleans Tow boat Association, whose profits
increase as the depth of water there dimin
ishes is able from the remote position of the
passes and the control over pilots and the
means of communication with the city, to
prevent vessels from using the best chan
nels, or if they do, SO to interfere with the
work of the engineers as to destroy the
work they have at any time accomplished,
and prevent further Improvement. Within
q week or two this association had at the
Southwest Pass thirty sailing vessels and
one steamer waiting day after day to be
dragged through the mud by the inferior
towboals of this association, while at
Paes-a-rOutre the water was deep enough
TO allow them to go out without trouble.
Only few days ago a steamer drawing
eighteen feet eleven inches of water
went out at the latter pass without
detention, after waiting at the former
seven days. When the engineers get
channel that is deep enough to allow the
passage OF large vessels, the agents of the
association purposely ground some large
vessel upon it at low tide. i'll order to pre-
vent the dredges from working and to cause
the channel to fill up. The bill reported
to-day simply gives the Secretary of War,
and through him the engineer in charge,
the power to make regulations for the use
of the passes. 10 direct vessels which chan
mel to take and at what stage of the tide to
pass over the bar 1t some bin like this
is not passed the engineer bureau will prob
ably recommend that no more appropia-

can protect its work. the money spent there
is thrown away. The House Commerce

Accidental Homicide.

On the evening of the twentieth instant,
while the steamer City OF Quincy, ST.
Louis and New Orleans packet, was about
twenty miles below this place pistol IN
the hands of Joseph Parker, the steward,
accidentally went of, and the ball struck
Frank Smith, one of the cabin boys, Just
behind the ear, penetrating the BRAIN, ana
from which death ensued in the course OF
an hour. This was the first landing made
nv the boat after the death of Smith, and
the body was put off here. Parker also got
off here to abide the result of the inquest.
This was held ON last Wednesday morn
ing, and Mr.. Deloney, formerly clerk OF the
boat. Joseph Edwards, the second steward
and William Beene, cabin boy, were the
witnesses examined. The jury rendered
verdict of accidental killing, but as 1t seem
ed to be the result of some carelessness on
the part Of Parker, they recommended his
arrest, and accordingly he was brought be-
fore Hon G. L. Moss parish Judge. for ex-
animation. The same witnesses were eX-
amined and additional evidence OF previous
good and peaceable character was offered
by accused and the fact established that
he and the deceased were on terms of more
than usual friendship. The steward was
proved at the time TO be excited, and under
the influence of liquor, but the testimony
showed that it was the first time he ever
was in that condition
In cumming up Judge Moss remarked
that while the accused was not free of
blame for the carelessness that occasioned
the calamity--that the kindly relations be.

and peaceable character of Mr. Parker, pre-
cluded any imputation of criminal inter.
