DEEP WATER MOVEMENTS.

At no time in the history OF the
state has the movement for deep
water on the gulf coast of the state
been as general and earnest as it
now is. Outside of Galveston and
VelascO, where vessels are regular
ly entering, there is a distinctive
movement for some deep water
port in the west end of the gulf.
Arkansas Pass is taking new inter-
est in the removal of the bar at
that point and the whole outlying
region brought into active cooper
alton to accomplish the work. Sub
scriptions of men and money have
been promised, and the promoters
of the work are confident that the
100000 considered necessary to
finish the work will be speedily Sc
cured. Corpus Christi finds herself
almost out Of the wood in her eff
fort to secure the bonus required
by the Alabama Dredging company
as condition precedent for
undertaking to secure a twenty
foot channel across Mustang
Island. The subscription is all
made, and the negotiable notes
that are to be given in lieu Of sub
scriptions as soon as the whole
amount is subscribed are being
signed. Col. Ropes has gone east
for a little season Of rest and to
recover from the terrible assault
that was made upon him some
weeks since, but he will return in
the fall and put his indOmitablC
will and energy into the work
The iron pier scheme Of Willetts
at Padre Island, is not dead, so Mr.
WilletUs says, but the funds that
are expected with which to con.
tinue the enterprise are held up by
the present monetary squeeze
Farther down the western shore
of the Gulf, in the sister republi c
there have been good results accom-
plished. The removal of TampicC
bar has been pushed with energ.
for the past two years and there i
now officially reported a depth o
III feet on that bar. This give

of this state to the vessels of tn

Every day adds to the number
of the unemployed in this and
every other city on this continent.
There is not a railway or manufac-
turing establishment in the cOun-
try that is not working less time,
fewer hands and paying lower
wages than it was doing one year
ago. There is a demand for the
labor in some places, but there is
no money to pay labor with. The
banks are getting all that they can
and keeping all that they get, not
knowing how soon raid will be
made on them by their depositors
Matters will not be any better un-
til Congress shows its hand.
