As civil engineer and former steamboat
man on the Mississippi river, have some
views upon the levee system.
The volume of water flowing to the gulf by
this outlet is so great that man may as we'll
undertake to change the course Of the planets
as to control this water by levees upon its
banks.
Each foot that the bank is raised by natural
deposits from overflow or artificial levees
tends TO raise the bottom OF the river bed as
we'll, aud with IL the entire body of flowing
water This has been the case, is now, and
ever will be, and the water when high is far
above the surface Of the surrounding lands, so
that upon the breaking Of the levees causes
great destruction by subnerging the entire
country.
The course of the river is constantly chang
ing Acres and hundreds Of acres caving oil
at every rise of the waters and the artificial
levee are and will be carried away requiring
new works to be constantly erected.
The tendency Of the current is to cut away
the bank "in the bends" and when, by this
agency, the earth is washed away in two ad-
iacept bends until they approach each other,
a cut Off" is the consequence, shortening the
river at times several miles at one time.
Deposits are made upon the "points" where
the current is less rapid, and this at an equal
ratio with the amount taken from the "bends," /"
so that there Is always u balance that keeps
the length Of the river the same, otherwise
the incline plane would increase, the current
become more rapid, and che laws Of nature be
destroyed.
Light particles float away with tho currNnt,
heavy ones sink to the bottom and are moved
more slowly by the force of water. When an
obstruction is reached, these heavy particles,
gravel, boulders &C., are caught and held,
until "bar" is formed which raises the bed
of the stream, until in its efforts to pass the
obstacle, it, in high water, finds an easier out
let by cutting through the light alluyial sur
face soil, changing the course Of the river.
Now, place powerful steam plows in the
river, tear up the stil clay, gravel, and bould.
ers of these distractions and the current will
carry them down the stream and clear pas

Blaine's Engagement OF Marriage.

H. j. r., In The Phad. Press
In 1861 or '62, in the times of our civil war
and when England was acting like bandit,
the Catholic church did our cause greatdeal
of good. Good old Archbishop Hughes was
the head of the church in this country. Hap
PLY he was friend of the United States.
And let me here say that the late war was not
a war between the north and the south, but it
was . war between the government of the
United States and n lot of fellows Ia big lot,
too,) in the south. Well, England was against
us and in favor Of the south. Archbishop
Hughes was with us and in favor of the gov
ernment. He did more for us than the aver
age reader knows about. Even at that early
day the quarrel between England and the
Irish had begun, and Episcopalian England
wanted to crush Catholic Ireland. At
this point Archbishop Hughes wrote to
President Lincoln telling of the love the
Irish people had for this country, and giving
some suggestions. One suggestion was that
the president should appoint half
dozen of officers from tho Irish Catholics
abroad and send them into the army. Mr..
Lincoln wrote at once to the archbishop, say
ing he would appoint and commission six
persons to be named by Father Hughes, and
give them good places in the army. Now
comes the story that / have been leading up
to. One of the gentlemen recommended by
AICnploHOp IlubuCa W uB uBCOllllulHSlODcu Ill Lne
army was John j. Coppinger, who was born
in Ireland, and entered the United States SER
vice as Il captain in the 18th infantry late in
1861. He was a brave fellow, who had been
in the Pope's service, and he made an admira-
BILE officer in our war. He had several pro-
motions for merit, aud is now colonel and
inspector-genera Cor something of the kind
L do not pretend to be accurate) on General
Pope's staH in the west. He is well spoken of
by those who have met him.
There is still point, or shall say con-
tinuaton, of this story Colonel C0ppinger
is engaged to be married to Miss Alice Blaine,
the eldest daughter Of the great commoner.
Miss Blaine was out west last summer and
met the young inspector general, and they
both fell in love in the usual way. / hear
they are to be married in February. Miss
Blaine is wonderfully well informed on pub
lie questions, and while she is not pretty she
has bright, intelligent face and charming
manners Her age is about ~.

The relative extent to which the telephone
is used in America and elsewhere througout
the world may be seen from the following
summary of the statistics recently published
by the Compasnie Int6rnationale des Tele-
phones, which we take from the Pal Mall
Gazette The statistics refer to the position Of
telephone exchanges throughout the world on
October /, 1882 Tho telephone Is moro freely
used in America than elsewhere, for there no
rates have TO be paid to state or town authori-
ties. New York has 4,060 subscribers
Chicago, 2726 Cincinnati, 1850; Boston, 1,1s6
san Francisco, 1300, sc. Some of these
figures refer TO May. There are now in the
United States more than 100000 subscribers,
and certain small towns, with population less
than 1000, have thirty to fifty telephone sub
scribeIs some even more. As regards the alb
solute number Of subscribers, Paris comes
third after New York and Chicago; it had on
October l. no fewer than 2,i22 subscribers,
while London had only l,6O0, Amsterdam 700
Stockholm, 672 Vienna, 600; Berlin, 5Sl
Brussels, A50 Turin, 4l0; Copenhagen, 400;
Mexico 300; 81. Petersburg 145 and Alexan-
dria, 1l6. While the annual subscription Is
600 francs in Paris, 500 francs in London, and
400 francs in provincial towns of France, it
descends to 800 francs and 200 francs in Bel
gium, 135 francs and 1880 francs in Italy, and
only 100 francs In Switzerland II we calcu-
late for each town the ratio which the sub
scribers TO telephone exchanges bear to the
total number of inhabitants, we find that
small American towns are far ahead, for in
many there Is ono telephone TO every twenty
inhabitants; in Chicago and in Zurich. the
proportion isabout one Der 200 In New York,

THE FIRST DISCOVERIES OF AMERICA

1t is now craven on the tablet of history
that though Columbus was the first discov-
erer Of our Western Continent, from which
the practical benefits of occupation and
settlements were received, he was not the
first European to plant footsteps Oh its
soil, that having been accomplished further
beyond his time than the present is re-
moved from his great discovery. Erik, a
bold Norsenan, colonized Greenland from
Iceland, and Lief, his bolder son, and other
Greenland Morse, discovered America,
probably as far south as Massachusetts, or
even the Chesapeake, certainly as far as
Labrador and the Island of Newfoundland.
No results, however, followed from these
discoveries, and the hardy Norsemen
seemed content to live in desolate Green
land, although we might add that many
physical appearances and more definite &C.
counts all seem to show that Greenland,
about A. D. I000-around which these
events were clustered-was much warmer
and more temperate country than it now is.
How long the Greenland Morse existed
we know not exactly. They finally broke
off communication with mother Iceland,
lived and intermarried among the Skra.
lings, as they called the Esquimaux, but
were extinct in 1879 and 1881. when the
first expeditions were dispatched from
Denmark for the rediscovery of Greenland
and its ancient colonizers, if they still ex-
listed, and the resumption of the trade with
its inhabitants. The last definitely known
of the Greenland Morse is that they paid
their tribute to the Crusades in the shape
of walrus tusks, delivered at Bergen, in
1927, and their weight is noted on re-
ceips, which is still IN existence.
Only eight years before Columbus dis
covered America, according to an old his
torical notice reputed to have been found,
there still lived forty men in Bergen who
were acquainted with the Greenland naviga-
tion, and used annually to bring home pre-
cious cargoes from that country. On return
ing in that year, they were asked by certain
German merchants who stayed at Bergen to
sell some of their wares, but they declined
to let them have any of them. The Ger
mans then took revenge by numbering
them, in an assault committed during a
banquet to which they had invited them.
From this time, it is said, it became impos-
sible to sail for Greenland, because no one
knew the road to its shores. This is the
last we know definitely of the Morse Green
landers, the receipt for the Crusade tax at
Bergen being the last we know definitely.
