Is about 800 feet. The mean range oi
tide 10 also uniform within the limit
OF the survey-5A miles--varying from
o.I feet at the Buoy depot, near the
entrance, to 6.8 feet ct the upper
bridge. This uniformity, both in
cross-section and tidal range, indicate
conditions quite favorable TO stability
for any future improvement, IL not i'm
paired by faulty works.
| There 10 every reason TO suppose
that 10 feet 1t low water mark can be
secured and maintained IL the proper
precautions are taken. The only diffi-
Guilty that there seems to be is ct the
mouth where the ordinary depth 10 8
or . feet which would require constant
dredging TO maintain IA feet unless
permanent works are placed there.
This might be avoided and o 10 feet
depth maintained il q DETECTING jetty
was constructed, and az such jetty
would have to sustain considerable
pressure from loo 1t would necessarily
have to be strongly built. In regard
to the rock at Third street he says
that recent soundings show the amount
OF rock to be removed in order to Sc
cure 10 feet channel is very small.
he recommends that the pulp works
be made the limit for the present of
the 10 feet depth, and If sufficient
amount is appropriated the work to be
done in the following order:
First. The extension of the present
IL feet channel upward to the pulp
works.
Second. The construction Of jet-
ty at the mouth. VIE
Third. The dredging Of the IS feet
channel from the mouth upward, and
Fourth. The removal OF tie rock
above Third street.
To complete the the entire pro-
iect 1t would require a period of
four years. He also speaks Of the
drainage system of our city and says
1t will be impossible to maintain Is
feet Of water fro n Third to Market
street BRIDGES unless by constant
dredging. This can be obviated in a
greas degree by the city placing
traps at the mouth of all sewers
into the creek.
He estimates the coss of the i'm
provements to be as follows, for Is
feet at low water mark from the
mouth of the creek to the pulp
works.

AT REST.

On last Monday the remains of
the dead President were laid beneath
the sod at Cleveland, Ohio. Thus
ends the history of one of the most
remarkable men Of this age, who
from a canal driver and wood chop
per climbed the ladder of fame and
reached the highest pinnacle of pow
or and grandeur 10 the gift of the
republic. 1t shows what possibilities
are open to the humblest youth Of
the land by our admirable system of
government. All have an equal
chance to emerge from obscurity
and penugy, and reach fame aud for
tune. The secret of Gsrfeld's suc>
cess is due mainly to his correct
habits ard studious application in
mastering his studies. His wonder
full mind was developed not by idle,
ness, 6ut by labor. Genius is the
offspring of labor. Preparation is
necessary to achieve success, and
this underlying principle was unde-
via,ingly adhered to by President
Garfield in ell his undertakings. He
mastered details aud thus fortified
himself for his life's work. But afteI
all there is no substantial earthly
glory. In the very flush of victory
aud human greatness Garfield wa
shot down, and his dust now minglel
10 common with the humblest Of hi'
subjects who have passed over th'
silent river. His fame alone survived
the tomb. Over his grave the Una,
pie Of the North end the magnOlis
of the South" will blend their shade
until the sunlight Of heaven shall
dispeI tho shadows aud hush the
meanings of grief stricken nation
"God reigns and the government al
Washington still lives" Time is tbs
great eraser of troubles, and soor
the busy cares of life will bring for
getfuIness of the dead President,
who is now at rest,

DEMOCRATIC vANTAGE GROUND.
President Arthur has called an
extra session Of the Senate for Octo>
Der 10th. There are three vacan-
cies on the Republican side--two by
the designations Of Conkling and
Plat, and one by the death Of Gem
eral Burnside whose successors can
not be sworn ia until the Senate is
organized. The Democrats will
have a majority, owing to these va"
csncies. AS their power is legiti-
mately acquired, they will be foolish
not to use it to their advantage.
They will be enabled to elect the
President pro tem., aud ex ofiicio
Vice>President of the United States,
and also the Secretary Of the Senate,
to I'll the vacancy caused by the
death of Secretary Burch. This sc-
complished they will be placed in a
position to be respected. They will
not lose a vote by one Of their num-
Der being elected to President pro
tenn. of the Senate, as some might
fear; on the contrary, a Senator re-
tains his right to vote on all ques-
tioLs, and is unlike Vice President
who can only vote on tie. A Sen
ator, elevated to a pre- siding officer,
loses none of his privileges and con-
tinues TO cast bis vote as potentially
as ever. Thus it can be seen the
Democrats by prudent action can
gain the vantage ground in the Sen
ate.

THn AUTOPSY.

The post norton examination
held on the body of the President at
Elberon brought out some unexpec>
ted developments which are not
very complimentary to the skill of
the physicians and surgeons who
had charge Of the case.
1t is found that the ball passed
through and fractured the spinsl COLI
umn, and lodged near the region OF
the heart. The immediate cause of
death was secondary hemorrhage
from one Of the arteries adjoining
the track of the ball. The rigors
from which the patient suffered were
caused by assesses between the liv>
er and gall duct.

JOIN HANDS.

When bad men unite in o bad
cause there 10 bat one way to meet
them. Join hands with the man
nearest you, who is willing to fight
the evil, and tell him to reach out
for the next one. When there il
trouble to be met and overcome,
there is no strength but 10 union.
Alone we can accomplish nothing.
Let each man discover, as quickly
as possible, exactly where aud how
he can work to the best effect, and
let those who have the strength and
power to organize all the workers
into one solid phslarx, take their
position, aud move on to the host.
1t is such work as this that strikes
terror to the heart of the enemy.

ANOTHER TRAIN ROBBERY.

A Newport lark } special to the
Post says; THE passenger train on
the Iron Mountain Railroad was
robbed last night by five masked
men, who halted and boarded the
train, forced the express messenger
to cpeu the safe and then proceeded
to rob the passengers. They OBJ
tanned $4,000 from the safe. Il
is claimed that the total loss will not
fall short of between $4,000 and
$50, 900. A cotton dealer named j.
S. Atkinson lost 81 800. The rob-
bers are said to be mere boys, and
it is believed they will shortly be
captured. Governor Churchill will
doubtless offer a reward OF So, 500,
and the railroad company As much
more for their capture"
