week..
Monday, 40 men, q day.
Tuesday, SO men, 4 day.
Friday, "a men, day.
Saturday, 81 men, day.
Four men at the third break, seven men
on the Dillon tract, six men on fat, balauce
on break. On Wednesday and Thursday 1t
rained, and on Monday and Tuesday the
high water prevented the men from getting
earth to fill the wheelbarrows. A large
quantity OF earth has been wheeled to the
edge of the great break Oh each side. Ten
thousand feet of lumber has been carried
TO this point, and finally on Saturday l OBJ
tanned the use of the steam pile driver, and
carried it with the piles needed to supply
the place of those washed out by the recent
high tides to this point.
l will beg of you. Mr.. Editor, to permit me
to leave nv Saturday paw roll with you for
the inspection of Mr.. Nisbet. II the gen
tlemau will visit Mr.. Fl. Schroder's store, at
the Market dock, he will verify the pay
ments. There are, moreover, fifty four wit
nesses on the dam at Back river.
efforts are being made by interested
parties to secure consi1 Grafton CT their
individual interests in the matter of the
restoration OF the dams on Hutchinson
Island as opposed to the Interests Of the
cit Zens at large.n
Such an accusation as this is very grave
and serious, and as it can be appli-
cable only to me, l an forced to ask
an explanation to the public.
Having seen in print proposition by Mr..
Nisbet to petition the city authorities to
close the crevasse, l approached him on
Friday last with the statement that he was
needlesslv anxious; that this great break,
however difficult, would be closed with the
same petition SIS the other three, one of
which was seventy feet wide, another sixty
feet, and third forty feet; the present one
is eighty feet. But that the defects of the
system, as shown by the effects of the storm
of August 18th, needed serious considers-
ton. Out of this private conversation. |
think, he has framed in public print the
above accusation. II l am mistaken,
l am sorry that have said so much, but If
am not mistaken | regret to be compelled
to say that Mr.. n. has forgotten the pro-
prieties Of life. As to the first statement
above it is very inexcusable, because l have
before said in print that the laborers on the
island were paid off atthe Market dock every
Saturday evening at $50 o'clock. l. is easy
to complain 10 a vehement and lmpetuous
spirit, but this will not change my plans
nor my precautions. | trust the public
will believe that my success in repairing
these very difficult breaks on the island,
with my experience In the successful drain
age of the island Ia 1878, Is guarantee suffi-
Client ofthe early closure. Though Mr. Nisbet
has not lived many years 10 Savannah,
part of that period was previous to 1873,
when HutchinsOn's Island was cOmplacently
looked upon as an intractable morass.
Respectfully, JAMES j. WARING.

Editor Morning Nsrs: Yesterday appeared
in the columns of the Sunday Telegram 8
communication signed John Nisbet, which
forces me unwillingly to ask space In your
columns.
The statements are SO at variance With the
facts and so injurious to me that 1 am forced
to reply, though my best reply is the work
already accomplished and to be accom-
plished in few days. Says the writer:
las matter of fact, no work has been
done at the crevasse, on the Back river, this

quantity ever carried in any poce eding
year. So shows the record-to which we
refer in the office of Mr.. Quinn Payne,
Seattle and Sehome postal agent aboard
the sChehalis. This route insofar as
Whatcom county is concerned lying north
ward Of Swinomish slough, has local
feature which is popularity in the mail
service of the United States-doubllng on
another route-yet in consequence thereof
it is an especially important service to this
county. Though barred by the tidal
passage through Swinomish slough and
thereby broken in two. it is the means OF
communication on which we depend from
the southern end of the county to the
county seat. AS such it gives us service
once a week. The increase of mail mat
ter noted, indicating o substantial devel-
opment on this part Ct the route, justifies
us in asking for an extension of the Fri
day service between Seattle and Laconer
to Anacortes, twelve miles, where the
connection with the Dispatch's route
would give to the whole county north and
south, inside and outside, semi weekly
mail. Making use of the same tide that
carries the steamer into Laconner to con-
tinue to deep water at the north end of
the slough and return. the service can be
comfortably performed by The Chehals if
rot otherwise hampered, and for so slight
an additional cost that the department
will unquestionably allow it, on petition.

Babylon and the Tower Of Babel.

The magnitude and grandeur of this
Oriental capital of twenty-five centuries
ago stagger all belief. Auy account of
them, even the most somber, is like
fairy story or tale Ct Arabian romance.
1t was fifteen miles square, and was en-
tirely inclosed by walls 100 feet thick
and 300 feet high. The walls were fur
ther mounted with $50 towers, seventy
five feet higher than themselves. There
were $500 miles of streets in the city.
In it was built the marvellous hanging
gardens. These were kind of artificial
garden, lifted into the cir upon immense
piles of masonry. It was stupendous
work, and was the result of gallantry.
King Nebuchadnezzar constructed
them that his Queen, who came from
mountainous country, Ecbatana, might
have the delight of mountain garden.
There were trees here from fifty to
seventy-ive feet in height and four feet
i'll diameter. The Tower of Babel was
partly temple and partly amausoleum.
1t was built of sun-dried bricks, and in
eight enormous stories, each of differ
emit color. The land of Shinar, between
the Tigris and the Euphrates, is q rich
alluvial plain, devoid of stone, yet nature
has compensated its inhabitants by max
ing the soil peculiar mixture of clay
and sand, which, mixed with water and
baked in the sun, produced brick more
durable than anything we are acquainted
with. Then the bitumen, which flows
out Of the ground, forms q cement so
solid that the brick are held together as
one immense mass. Hence the marvel
GUS durability and preservation Of these
ancient ruins.
The summit of the tower was crowned
with shrine, and within it o mighty
image of Belus, the Chaldean Jove, forty
feet high and Of solid gold, was placed.
The terrible denunciatlons of the wicked,
effeminate and cruel city which are con-
tanned in the Hebrew prophets have
been strikingly and literally verified. It's
palaces have become dwelling place
for owls, and so the voice of history
speaks with loud and startling empha-
sis to our generation, assuring us that
the wrath of God rests upon the workers
Of iniquity, and that it will sooner or
later surely ovsrtaks them. Prof.
Chickeriag.
