The Levees and the Commission of En-.
Riueers.

OFFICE OF COMMISSION OF ENGINEERS
New Orleans, September TO- 1875. !
To Lieutenant Governor and Acting Governor Of
the state Of Louisiana, c. C. AutOine
SIR-The undersigned, commission of en- =.
gineers. have the honor to report az follows:
Act No of 1870 provides that In order
to maintain uniform and perfect system.
the location and dimensions of all leyees to
be constructed. main tanned, repaired and
kept in repair and managed, shall be deter
mined by commission of three engineers"
Act Noc43 of 1879 re-enact- this and further
provides that "They tsaid commissou)
shall also on or before the first day of Octo-
Der in each year prepare report. with a
statement in detail, of the number and loca-
tion OF the ievees to be constructed during
the year next ensuing, with careful estl.
mate of the number of cubic yards such
leyees will contain when completed, and
shall deliver one copy of said statement
and estimate to the Governor of the State,
one copy to the Auditor of Public Accounts.
and tns copy to the president of the -4ou,
lana Levee Company; and the sale. cor
pany shall not be required to build duri.
the year any levees, except those required
to be built by said commission" From the
above it is clear that no levees can be built
unless ordered by this commission.
This commission is row, and has been for
some time, ready to perform the duties
assigned to it by law. Unfortunately our
operations are obstructed by two potent
causes:
|. The protracted high stage of the river.
2. Want of funds.
Owing to the first cause furveys hereto
fore could not accurately be ma ie to es;ab-
lish the sites OF the necessary new levees.
Owing TO the second cause they can not
move at all.
Money is required to pay costs of surveys
transportations, and other contingent ex-
penses. The last Legislature made ro
appropriation for paying these expenses
Even the salaries Of two engineers of the
commission, and of the secretary, are with
held. The levee interests of the State OF
Louisiana is subject too important 10 be
trified with or neglected, and needs no dis
cusson here
Paraly zed as we are, our only hope is to
appeal to you, the acting Governor of the
State, for advice and material aid in this
matter. Respectfully requesting an early
answer, we have the hor OF to be- very res
pectfully, your obedient servants,
JAMES LONGSTREEr.

GENTLEMEN-I have the honor to ac-
knowledge the receipt of your commuuica-
ton OF this date, setting forth the impgra-
tive duties imposed upon you D7 law with
regard to the location of the leyees required
to be built within the limits of the State of
Louisiana tor the current year, and stating
that your commission Is now ready to per
form the duties assigned to it, but is ore
vented by the fact that the last Legislature
made no appl opriation for the cost of sur
veys, transportation and other contingent
expenses.
l recognizs the great Importance to the
planting interests, and to the State at large
OF prompt location of the levees necessary
to be constructed in order to secure our
alluvial lands from over flow, but | am
powerless to remedy the omission of the
Legislature in failing to make adequate ap-
preparation for this purpose
l will, however, recommend TO the law
officers OF the State to apply for the release
of the injunotions which YOU ia orm me
now rest upon the salaries Of two of the
engineers of the commission. | further feel
Justified under the circumstances in official
ly authorizing you to make such arrange
ments as may be requisite to carry out the
work, and feel sure that on the reas-
sembling of the Legislature the Governor
will recommend the passage of such an
appropriation as will cover all the neces-
sary expenses you may incur in carrying
out the provisions of act No. of 1870 and
OF act No. 43 Of 1873, 10 which you call NV
attention.

Wherewitn Shall all be Clothed.

This important question is answered by Jabob
Chrisman, who invites all persons to call and
see him. We accepted the invitation day or
two since and found him busily engaged in
manufacturing his fall and winter stock. As he
is No. /. cutter himself, and employs only
frst-class workmen, he can guarantee every
thing in satisfactory style. He manufactures
Dayton, and all the western goods, which give
general satisfaction. His stock, which includes
gents furnishing goods of every description is
complete, He sells the best trunk in the west
we have looked it through and are convinced
none can be better 1t is called the " Toledo, :"
Take our advice and call on him, near the Ma
tonal Bank.

HOME MATTERS.
Savings Bank.

The La Sale county Savings Bank, as hereto,
fore intimated, opened the 1st inst in their new
quarters in the Opera House building. They
have the north corner room which has been fit
ted UP especially for their use, and is in all its
appointments perfectly adapted to its purpose.
There is monster fire-proof vault of heavy
masonry to hold the safe, books and yaluables,
so that neither by fire, flood or earthquake, can n
dollars worth OF the banks property be injured.
The principles on which the bank was organized
aad its business conducted are as perfect as its
material appointments. Not dollar of the
money deposited with the bank can be loaned on
personal security under any pretense or circum-
tances, but every dollar, not kept in the secure
vault, will be loaned on none but the best real
estate security, or on government bonds as collat-
erals.
To correct a misapprehension that seems to
prevail on the subject, we are authorized to state
that temporary deposits arc at all times cheer
fully received and may be checked out, as indeed
all It's deposits can be, or demand the same as at
any other bank in the city.
The bank, we are pleased to learn, is doing an
excellent business, the savings deposits being
much larger than was anticipated and including
all classes and sums, from less than dollar up
to thousands.
