GALVESTON, Jan. 14.-From q Washington
dispatch in reference to the report of Lieut..
quinn on the Galveston harbor i'm provements.
it appears that the board of Army Engineers
IRE not informed in the report as to the direc-
.,on OF the wind during the late storm Lieut..
quinn states, the wind came from various di-
'ections on the occasion referred to. First
rom the east, after which it veered around to
me northeast, and eventually came directly
rom the north.
The greatest force exerted therefore was at
light angles to the jetty, SO far as the action
7 the wind and waves was concerned. But |
he result OF the north wind was to drive the |
waters out Of the bay, and the action exerted |
y the storm in this instance was therefore
arallel with the jetty.
This action coming from the current which
ows eastwardly, in view of the depth of water
which the gabions are sunk, Lieut.. Quinn
apprehensive of little danger if any, from
ne waves. The disturbed surface of the sea
xerts an influence in the direction in which
ae waves are rolling only slight depth be-
w the hollow OF these waves. This seems tot
. well established fact. Especially is it
kelly to be the case where currents are pro-
need, or existing currents quickened, by the
,tion of the wind.
He moreover believes, from the teachings
experience during the stormy and windy
ason OF several weeks past, that the greatest !
niger is to be feared from undermining par :
lei currents, rather than from any force that
rikes the jetty at right angles. But as the -,
'bions have depth of five or six feet of
.ter over them. the danger to be apprehend-
! from waves is slight, while currents flow
6 laterally east or west are the principal en- 1
lies to be commended with.
AS to the water, that finds an egress by
shing across the end of the jetty. While It

As the work progresses, Lieut.. Quinn
tches the effects of the water closely, in or
