tons. Before single mattress had been
sunk. the captain promised the public
that before we celebrated our Centennial
birthday. he would provide ample water
for the tree passage Of fifteen feet ocean
steamer to New Orleans. This much
was achieved on Friday last.
As to the present progress OF the work
We have information that 1t Is entirely re-
liable. Several mattresses are being
loaded and sunk every day. In places
where the water escapes over the sides,
thus greatly increasing the volume
and velocity Of the stream. The
surface tier Of mattresses TO the sea end
Of the east Jetly was completed last Satur-
day. On the west jetty the pile drivers
are at work finishing the inner line OF
piles supporting the mattress work pre-
paratory to the finishing work Of the
jetties. The work now TO be done at the
jetties proper, is only to:bnild on top OF
