THE DISTRICT suRyEYoR.

The district surveyor is the subject Of letter
written TO Senator Mcmillan by A. II. Semmes
of this city. Mr.. Semmes designates the
present condition Of affairs q serious
inconvenience. He wants surveyor
for the District who will be paid a
regular salary; who shall have q sufficient
number of assistants, also salaried. He SAYS
the delays now are very annoying and refers to
one case where he gave an order for certain
surveying year ago, but the order has never
yet .received any attention. He thinks
the surveyor is a trihe too independent and
wants him placed under the control Of the
Commissioners. Mr.. Semmes also suggests
that the surveyor be placed under bonds, &C
that when he enormously lays out lines re-
course may be had against his bondsmen.
Fixed charges for surveying would also be
desirable.
