LETTER FROM MEMPHIS.
The " Herald" not 'Rcceived-A Plan
for an Artificial HarbOr.

The Eerald'' not 'Rcceived-A Plan
for an Artificial Harbor.
EDITOR HERALD: During the past
two months / have been getting my
news from Los Angeles through the
columns of your enterprising cotempo-
rary, the Santa Barbara Press, which
some kind friend sends me OCCASION
ally. This means that you have not
been sending me the HERALD, or it
has been stolen in the mail.
DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YoU,
That constructing magnificent artifi-
cial harbor on your coast was not a
very great undertaking? GLOW great"
you are ready to ask; and "what do i
know about it 2" Suppose you begin at
| San Pedro point and push stone en-
bankment out into the sea, curving to
| the left so as to enclose the deep water
| in front of the old San Pedro landing.
Suppose you begin another at Dead
Mans Island, and push it out into the
sea, curving it to the right so as to en-
close the deep water in front of the
space between San Pedro Landing and
| Timms' lis Aw-goost alive p; and
suppose you make the first wing Il
mile long, and the second half that.
| You would have q harbor large enough
to hold u hundred ships-how many
more | won't say. What would this
cost? Average the depth of water at
three fathoms, and build your embank-
ment six feet above the water, and we
would have the depth of the break
water equal to twenty-four feet, or
eight yards.
MAKE IT'S WIDTH ON TOP
Equal to its depth, and let the slope in
side and out be one for one, or an angle
of forty-five degrees. Then each run
ming yard of the embankment would
be equal to one-hundred and twenty
eight cubic yards. Multiply this by
| the length of the two wings, viz: $500
yards, and you will find that the whole
structure will hold 337, 920 cubic yards
of stone rubble; which at one dollar
per yard-an outside price-would give
you harbor at less cost than you can
construct twenty miles of railroad
Possibly such breakwater might not
stand against continuous fierce gales;
| but there can be no reason why it
would not answer at point where a
wharf is safe. If wharf at TruXton
will be safe, then it will be equally
safe to make harbor. A harbor
would add an immense prestige which
you do not now possess Freights
would be cheaper than at present, and
direct trade with far off countries could
be more readily established. If you
expect to smelt great quantities of ores
you must have coal, and coal must
come from abroad, and come directly
ami cheaply. It will not bear lighter
age and handling.

ribe suffering of seven years standing but for

this testimonial of the skilliul and efficient
treatment of DIR. j. II. Leal of Los Angeles.
DIR. Leafs success is more highly appreciated
from the fact that several of the prominent

publicans of Vermont would do well to
give heed thereto. With the scales so
evenly balanced, little wisdom on the
part of the democracy, and the same want

county during the month, a farmer. He is
not. however. unused to legislation. having

1t has been said that the convention was
captured" This we will eoncede TO be
true, but not in the malicious sense intend
cd it was captured" if you please, as
all other nominating conventions ought to
be 'captured'--by the people, and they
made the nominations. On the other hand,
the democratic convention was ''captured,'
or, to use the better word, manipulated by
wire pullcrs and professed politicians
Consultations were held and the nomina-
tons were not made by or for the people
They were made Ivy these consultations,
combinations, wire pullers and politicians

ests are not those of the people. The re-
publican party represents the people and
are bound to win, unless they supinely
allow politicians, wire pullers, combina-
tons and monopolies to run over them.

An Eloquent Negro takes Congress
by storm

The fangs of another blatant eX-rcbel
and negro hatcr were neatly extracted by a
cOlored member in the House Saturday af-
ternoon. The offender was Il member
from North Carolina, named Robbins, who
fought during the whole war ON the Con
fedcrate side lie is a new member and
full Of the old Southern views. which he
poured out in a manner that disguised even
his own side of the House. He spoke of
the cOlorcd men as ''niggers,' and said that
crow ought to take the place of the eagle as
the national bird. He spoke for full hour.
with the tone and manner Of a plantation
oycrscer bis speech being much more Of
fensvc than that of Harris of Virginia,
which was so effectively replied to by Eli
oft of South Carolina. When Robbins finish
ed. Mr.. Cain Of South Carolina. Il black
member, who has not before been heard
of Robbins TRADE, and proceeded TO an
swer him. point by point, in Il style us strik-
ing rs it was unexpected. The effect on
the House and galleries was tremendous.
Mr.. Cain met the blackguard assault of the
North Carolina member with great wit,
and turned all his points against him. He
told him that the crow might well be taken
as the emblamatic bird o the Southern
whites, for they were always cawing at the
whites. His peroraton was delivered with
thrilling eloquencc, and his declaration of
the patriotism of his race and their deter
mination to stay on this continent and work
out their destiny, was one of the finest
pieces of defamation which has been heard
in the House.
AT the conclusion of the speech, Mr..
Cain was congratulated by almost the en-
tire body of republicans present, and bust
ness was suspended for several minutes.
Mr. Cam is good speaker, and an educated
man. As his speech was extemporc and
his answer to his opponents points so
prompt and complete, no one can charge
him with having delivered a speech pre-
pared by others. His cloquence fairly as
tonished Sam Cox and others of the north
ern democrats, and several of the more
decent Southern members expressed their
disapproval of Robbins utterances.
1t is thought that the overwhelming de-
feat in debate which the enemies of the
c0lored men have suffered in the House
will prevent the making of any more silly
and damaging speeches against civil rights
by the reconstructed Southern members.

1t was an unvarying custom of the twins
to spend three days and half of each
week in each house. So unalterable was
this custom that the funeral of son on
one occasion and the wedding of daugh-
ter on another could not be attended by
them because the ceremony was not at the
right house. Thursday, Jan. IS, was the
day for Chang to visit Eng's house The
former was the weaker of the two, having
been paralyzed three years before, ON the
right side, and ever since suffering from
chronic pneumonia. On this night the ey-
IRENE cold, the rough road and an omen
carriage conduced to throwing Chan into a
severe attack of his affection of the throat
and he sent word to his wife next day that,
though better, he thought he would have
died that night On Friday night the twins

they did soon afterwards 20 to bed, and
nothing more was heard till towards day

hours after the alarm. Eng expired, all the

The wife of Eng said that he was as
hearty as ever he had been the night before,
having eaten substantial supper, and was
in no wise apparently affected by his
