OHIO RIVER.
Major Merrill's RepOrt-HOw the
improvements are Progress
ing.


ing.
The engineer i'm charge Of the Ohio
river improvements, Major Merrill, has
submitted 20 the Chief OF Engineers an
interesting report of his operations dur
ing the fiscal year ending June 80. In
IL he saws the work at Davis Island Dam
has progressed satisfactorily, and cOnsid-
erable prOgreSS was made during the
wear i'm removing rocks and distractions
from shoal places in the Upper Ohio.
At the Grand Chain important results
were accomplished i'm the way Of deepen
iny the channel and removing Obstruc-
tions. I'm concluding his report Major
Merrill SAYS that il is embarrassing to
submit an estimate on great rlver like
the Ohio. All rivers, says the engineer,
contain series OF bars or
shOal places, over which less
water can be carried than else
where, and the objects Of all works OF
river improvement is To add To the pay
ing tonnage Il river craft by increasing
the depth on these bars. The Ohio
contains 200 of such bars, and a they
are independent of each other the en-
Vineer i'm charge can utilize any amount
of money that does not exceed the total
sum necessary to improve them all ut
one time. ANY sum that Congress Is
likely 10 appropriate can be used 10 at
vantage, but, considering the magnitude
of the commerce Of the river, S5OO,OOO,
inlependent Of the sum required for the
Davis Island dam, should be apprOpri-
ated For the movable dam an appro-
priatiOn Of at least 500, 600 ought tO be
male, which will enable the engineer To
finish the masonry of the lock and the
nayigable pass. After the building OF
the pass the most hazardous part Ot the
work will have been completed,
and il will then be practicable To make
reliable estimates OF the cost OF compile
ton. Until We have crossed the river
channel, SAYS the engineer, and have
gotten out Ot the danger from river
floods, il is hardly worth while to at
tempt a detailed estimate, as the con
tingencies are too great. Major Merrill
submits the following estimate for the
ensuing fiscal wear. For dredging, snag-
ying. building dikeS, &c, $4,000. For
Davis Island Dam, S2OO,OOO. Total,
500. 1000. The amount available Tor
work during the current fiscal year was,
on the first day Of July last, $40, 100 30.
The report closes with a resume ot
the work on the MOnOngahela river, and
the engineer strongly urges the COM
mencement OF the lock and dam at
Laurel run, estimating the cost at Sll3,-
OOO, and asking for $4,000 for the next
fiscal year.

FELL OF HIS OWN WEIGHT.

When Boss Kissing had finished his test.
mony in the Blodgett impeachment inquiry,
thcimpression prevailed that Blodgett was
aruincd man. People foolshly thought
that lcsing, repcntant for the sins that laid
with mountain weight on his soul, had told
the truth, although he, himself, was the
beneficiary Of the villainy he charged to
the account Of Biodgctt. But in due time
Blodgett's witnesses came upon the stand.
Piece 10y piece Hesings testimony was des-
troyed, until, by the testimony of good
men Of Chicago he was proven to be u
perjured man, and most yindictivc one
besides We referred yesterday to the val.
ue he placed upon the stock he held in the
Stats Zeitung, That he might avoid the
payment Of his just share Of taxes he swore
that his stock was worth only fifteen cents
on the dollar. When he wanted to ruin
the character Of Judge Blodgctt he swore
that the same stock was worth one hun
drcd cents on the dollar Beng
confronted with his affidavit, in which
the price Of the stock was
tXcdat fifteen cents, he declared that.hc had
sworn to the affidavit in ignorance Of its
contcnts--that, had he been advised that
such low estimate had been placed on the
stock, he would not have taken the oath
This was a most damaging explanation;
but what will the reader think of the man
when we remark that it was proven that
even the explanation was false. The law.
yer who drew up the affidavit has sworn
rointedly and unequivocaly that IIcsinr
did know the meaning and purport of the
affidavit, and had actually fixed the value Of
the stockhimself. In another part of his ties.

JOIN A. WALL of the Pinckneyvillc
Signal, declares that there is ring in
Pinckneyville, led by W. D. Murphy, Esq,
that is determined TO ruin his business and
drive him out of Perry county. Very re-
Gently the ring has been enlarged by the
addition of the man who owns the house in
which the Signal is printed. This man
notifies Mr.. Wall that because Of the non
payment of the rent he desires him to va
cate the premises, In reply Wall AYERS
that his landlord has owed him more than
the amount Of the rent for period of two
years. And quite recently, also, the ring
has been further enlarged by the addition
ofthe Baptist church OF Pinckneyville. The
members of this church declare, by reso-
luton, that the Signals personal attacks
upon Rev Mr. Willoughby are wanton, ma
licious and unwarranted. In reply to this
Mr. Wall declares that he has made no as
saults upon Mr.. WiIloughby that have not
been fully justified. He has, he says, called
Willoughby an odd hypocrite," ''pious
fraud, e "a liar etc, and Willoughby Is o
fraud, hypocrte, and a liar And, quite
recently, too, the ring was further en-
largcd by the addition of the town council
which passed series of resolutions that
Wall was not permitted to see, but which
were condcmnatory Of the manner in which
the Signal has been conducted. Kept in
the dark as to the exact character of these
resolutions, Walls resistance was not quite
as effective as it otherwise might have been.
But he does the best he can and fights
Willoughby, who edits the opposition pa
per; fights the Baptist church, fights
his landlord, fights the town board,
all these he fights through the columns of
the Signal; and W, d. Murphy, whom he
stigmatizes as the "boss" OF the ring" he
fights with tightly clenched fists as well as
through his newspaper. Mr.. Wall claims
that he has been badly treated, and Ger.
tainIy talks like man who is honestly in
dignont and resentful, But without going
outside of the columns of his own paper,
the public will conclude that he has done
wrong as well as suffered wrong.

! Especial Correspondence of the Cairo Bulletin,
WASHINGTON, FEBRUARY 5, 1879.
The quarrel over the New York custom
house is passed. Senator Conkling is beaten
and the administration is triumphant
Probably the new officials will not perform
their duty much more or less efficiently
than the old ones The contest was for
control OF the spois simply, To Demo
critic voters the administration is indebted
for its victory. Probably Senators Demo
ccratic) who assisted Mr.. Hayes and Secre-
tary Sherman did what was best is party
view of the affair.
Senator Morgan on Monday finished his
speech on the Edmunds resolutions, SEN
ator Bayard spoke on the same subject
yesterday, and Senator Edmunds. To-day
Senator Hytc will speak. The debate let
us hope, will be Of interest to po,terity.
Just now it seriously interferes with the
public business.
This public business, by the way, ought
to be nearly or quite all over by this time.
AS it is, the most important Of it remains.
There is much talk of necessity of an extra
session. There will certainly be prolnged
discussion over the sundry civil appDpria-
ton bill and the legislative, executiv, and
Judicial, rs both parties will seek to accom-
plish general legislation by means of amend
ments to the bills, and an extra session may
be necessity.
Various propositions have been made for
raising money to pay the fifty or sixty mil
lions needed to carry out the arrears por-
ton of the late pension bill. 1t is under.
stood that from five to ten millions will be
appropriated during this session for the pur-
pose, and the balance as it becomes neces.
sary. One result of the bill IS
greatly increased number of applications
for pension under the general aw.
Many are applying now that they will re-
ceive pension, if at all, back to- date OF dis
charge, who had not though it worth while
to Go so before. The first payment of any
pensioner, applying at this time, culd
hardly be less than three hundred dollars.
