General Humphries Henrd From.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Chicago Post has the following:
General HUMPHREYS, chief engineer. has
written a letter to Representative Sypher,
of the Committee on Railroads, in reference
IN Honse bill No. 2l53, for the improvement
nf tbe mouth of the Mississippi river. This
nil authorizes James b. Eads, and Others
associated with him, to proceed in the wo rk
of deepening the channel OF one OF the out
let's or passes OF the river, at or near its
mouth, into the Gulf of Mexico, and to con.
struct jetties along the banks of the river.
General HUMPHREYS, having had a copy OF
this bill sent to him for his opinion thereon,
has written letter discussing the i'm.
portance of the improvements pro-
posed. and the plans for carrying them
out. General HUMPHREYS recommends the
establishment of a ship canal in the vi
cinity of Fort st. Philip, and urges sur
vey in addition to the preliminary one
made along the route Of the proposed Fort
st. Philip canal. He thinks this preliminary
survey fully establishes the practicability
OF constructing a ship canal in the vicinity
of Fort st. Philip. Its practicability IS
authoritatively established, but until the
best line of location is absolutely deter
mined, he does not desire to recommend an
appropriation for the construction OF the
canal, especially when the present state OF
the finances is considered, but by proceed
ing at once with the required lnvestlga-
lions he would be able to submit the pro-
iect of the canal, including detailed plans
and methods OF construction, at the next
session of Congress. Respecting the appli:.
cation of the jetty system. General
HUMPHREYS remarks that the canal pro-
ject is much more complete in every
respect than any jetty project that
has been yet presented. He states
that the cost to the United States
under this bill t2l54) of opening and main
tanning a channel of twenty eight feet
depth at high water is at least equal to the
cost to the United States of constructing
and maintaining ship canal near Fort st.
Philip. 1t these improvements are to be
made by contract, as provided for IN the
bill, General HUMPHREYS asks if it might not
be to the advantage of the government to
open the contract to competition. 1t is IN
derstood that, in relation to these improve
ments of the Mississippi river, the COM
mittee having the subject before them are
in favor of allowing it to 60 over until next
year, when they will more fully under
stand the wants and proper plans to be
pursued. 1t is quite certain they will not
recommend any appropriation for the work
this session.
