on the 18th of November next ready for occupancy,
which is as they possibly be finished. In
the meantime the apparatus is being manufactured
for their equipment.
General Superintendent Kimball has just returned
from the West, where he went to select sites for the
new stations on the lakes. as authorized by Con-
gress. Sites were selected as follows: On Lake
Michigan at Manistee, Ludington, Muskegon and
Kenosha; on Lake Huron at Sand Beach; and a
station located near Port Austin Superintendent
kimba was fortunate enough to titles to the
land selected free of cost, the giving it to
the Government. There Is great interest in the
service iii the lake region, and disposition is
shown by the people to render all the assistance in
their power to help it along.
Sites for the new stations on the coast of New
Jersey and New-England will be selected very
soon, and proposals invited for their construc-
ton. Their completion will be hurried as much as
possible. Proposals for Constructing the new lake
stations will also be invited in a day or two.
