w. w. StrOhn, President of the village.
received the following communication
from Major HarwOod nf the q. S. Engi-
neer corps, and who. il will be remem-
bercd, visited this place "a few days since.
in reference TO the work to be done up
on our harbor. The letter fully explains
itself:
UNITED STATES ENGINEER OFFICE'l
Room 81. MOFEATT BLOCK.
DETROIT. Mich, June B, 1877. y
NJ. VIM. strohn, President of the Village of Che
boygan, Mich:
Dear Str: By direction of the War de-
partment, shall shortly eXpend upon
the improvement of your harbor, the ex-
isting appropriation OF $4,000 which l
propose to devote mainly to perfecting.
by dredging, the lake entrance, already
partly excavated. As it is very probable
that this seasons work will be the last
afforded by Congress. for series of Years
at least, / take the liberty of suggesting
to you the propriety of the village pas
sing stringent ordinance against the
waste OF sawdust and other mill stuff in
to the river below the dam.
While at my late visit noticed no ma
terial impairment to the lake channel
from deposit from this source, there was
still called to my notice the fact of q
large deposit i'm the river itself within
the village limits, as also quite pereept-
ible and steady waste on the snrface OF
the stream. 1t is only matter of time
when the evil now noticed in the river
will be propigated to the lake channel
and of course if Congress should make
further provision for the Improvement
the village will hardly expect the United
States, in applying such funds. to devote
any part OF it to remedying evils effected
by causes within the power of the viii
lage to prevent.
While can bear testimony from per-
sOnal notice, to the care taken by the
principal offending mill to dispose of its
waste as thoroughly as possible BY the
method its owners have adopted, yet
could not fail to see that this method was
mcasurably inefficient. and am informed
that other and more efficient ways are il
operation at other points, and could b,
furnished at this mill at slight outlay
All expenditure altogether disproportion
ate to the great damage likely to accru,
to your shipping interests in course 0
time unless this waste shortly complete
ly and thoroughly stopped for good ant
all.
My solicitude as government agent 70

Improvement already made and to b.

work, is my excuse for troubling you 5,
at length, that you may be fully and fair

ther appropriation will not probably b.

The Detroit papers stated last week
that lumber manufacturers at points on
Lake Huron shores were anxious to char
ter vessels to ship their lumber. for fear
of 1t being destroyed by the fires which
were prevailing, but they now state that
the late rains have removedla1l fears in
this regard, and that now they are not
so anxious for shipment.
The first Monday in July there will be
an election held in the 23d judicial Cir
cult, composed of Alpena, Alcona
Presque Isle and Iosco counties. the new
circuit established by the late Legislature
for Circuit Judge. The prominent can.
dates named are j. B. Tuttle, Vt Alpena
Democratic, and r: 2. Roberts, of Har
risville, Republican.

Macarthur. Smith & Co. have prepare

Macarthur, Smith & Co. have prepared
two additional buoys and will place them
this afternoon out beyond those at pres
ent located near where the old piers
stood. This will aid vessels materially
in making the harbor, but there should
be additional ones placed inside OF the
ones that are now set. Why private par
ties, as has been the case, should be at
the whole expense of placing and
maintaining these buoys, we cannot see.
They are certainly public benefit, and
we think. therefore, that it would be no
more than right that the village would
aid in the matter, and would suggest to
the Council the propriety of placing a
few more buoys on each side of the chan
mel. This would be of great benefit to
navigators, especially in thick. weather
when the ranges cannot well be seen.

The amount saved in transportation by n

cost Of construction. The other road, out
at the head of the Bitter Root, is also OF
great Importance, and should receive atfeE-

IT is reported that Mrs. Belknap is
writing book, in which she proposes to
open out to the rude gaze of the plebian
world the sacred secrets of Washington
society. Mrs. B. has always resented
bitterly what she considers as the I'M
Just discrimination shown towards her
husband for his and her official flnan'
ceering-but then she had better not
write a book. II Washington society
was to blame for these malGeasances the
most sensible thing for her to do is tc
take her Ex-Secretary under her arm
and cut it.
