THE LEvEE QUESTION.

EDS. REcoRD-UNIoN It should be by this
time apparent to everyone that the principle
of cross levees, which has been adopted to
effect a reclamation in this city, can never
be satisfactory 1t should now be admitted
by every candid citizen that the construction
of the Y-street leyee was mistake. The
abandonment of the river leyees teloy Y
street will invite the constant recurrence OF
the flooded condition of the lower part OF the
CITY which now exists there. Fifty blocks of
valuable property thus ceases TO be valuable
because Of the danger OF constant repetition
of the overflow from surface drainage. As
far as these fifty blocks are concerned, the
abandonment of the river levees On the Sac
remento side below street is equivalent to
abandoning all levee defenses whatever.
Whenever the leyee in question breaks the
surface water will submerge these blocks
therefore they are as much in danger of over
flow as II the front levee between r and Y
streets had been abandoned. To them the
Ieyee defenses of the city constitute no pro-
lection whatever. The accumulation of
water in that part of the city is as much an
injury to the prestige, and inficts as great
damage upon its reputation as though the
main defenses of The city were liable to break
with each recurring winter food.
Yet this property is subjected to taxation
for levee purposes the same as other property
in the city, notwithstanding it is certain it
will be overfowed from surface drainage
every time break occurs in the levees below
Y street. The cost Of pumping alone
amounts to a sum largely in excess Of that
required to keep up the levee to Sutterville,
while the indirect damage inflicted upon the
Of the city it is impossible to over
1t should be apparent by this time to
all that considerations OF economy and
health viii sooner or later force the
city of Sacramento TO extend its
levee defenses down the river and
build the cross levee at a lower point. The
property protected by that levee should be
made to bear its due proportion of the bur
den of the expenses. Nothing except the
most narrow-rninded and selfish spirit will
maintain the present senseless system of
placing cross levee in such position that it
viii act as a dam for the surface drainage
water and thus infiict injury upon large
number of citizens directly, and indirectly
upon the present and prospective value of all
the property in Sacramento This is can
did, common-sense, truthful view of this
whole situation. It cannot be refuted except
by the contemplate, small-hearted considera-
ton that levee system which would ade-
quately protect the city of Sacramento might
inure to the benefit of some covey who hap
pens to own land below the city's limits.

Following the Old Traces.

Modern engineers think they
have carried the art OF surveying
10 very great perfection, but a
good deal of 1t must have been
known in ancient times. No road
is 60 imperishable as a Roman
road, which indicates that the en-
gineers not only built we'll, but
chose good routes, especially In
their exemption from the action OF
floods. The Indian engineers sell
dom find that they can improve on
the routes selected for ancient Da--
tive canals, or the sites chosen for
the huge tanks, and this
week Colonel Turr quoted still
more striking instance. He has
been surveying for the canal to be
cut through the Isthmus of
Corinth, and, after q most careful
examination of three alternative
routes has decided that the one se-
lected by the Emperor Nero's en-
gineer is by far the best. Nor to
mention that it Is shorter than all
Others, "the trace of Nero" termi-
mates at each end at calm and deep
water; and another advantage OF
the Nero trace consists in the dis
position of the slopes. which favOrs
1t, inasmuch as the canal
would then be protected
against the floods in the
ravines along the slopes.
while the other two lines would
catch these waters. That shows
scientific surveying; and it is to be
noted that Nero's engineers, like
Alexandra's, had freed themselves
from the singular superstition
which so greatly influenced mod
ern opinion, that the waters of the
two seas were never of the same
hight. This argument was actual
~ thrown at M. de Lesseps, as a
serious one, not only against the
Suez Canal, but the Canal of Cor
