REMARKS.
It appears to uB that tho evils which Mr. ,rnloy
apprchonds from tlio proposed sale Gin BIO
avoided by inserting cauao in the decd rcsory-
ing tic riparian right and all other rights apper-
timing to tho city in tho promises. Tho PROCESS
Of condemnation which ho suggests could do no
more though, upon many considerations, That
proceeding wonll 10 preferable. Tho question
whether tho Railroad Company took anything,
by tllo act Of 1860 is still undetermined. It Is
very certain that the State Legislature Ind no
right to eel! Lalzo Michigan. Nor are there any
natural accro.ions, rs yet, in tho upaco on,-
bracod by tho act OF 1860. Nor can tho
accrctiong forming on his uhore. Dut, however
that lnay be- 1t is important tint tho city should
re5erye al! tlio rights it has In tlie outside
hnrbor, and this can DO easily done in tho pro-
posed qule"olain doed, il such deod il ,nade.-
