HYDROGRAPHIC COMMISSION Iuteresttas Bepwrt the Protection mt the River Frost Piau Recommended' br the Engineers and Estimate ef CeaU Appended is the report of the Hydro grapliio Commission to rue Mayor. It Is an important and interest in 5 document, em bracing as it does the results of a moat thorough and extensive survey. For several days a correspondence In relation to the cost of tlie work has been going on between the. the commission and Gen.

Humphreys. Yesterday, Ijy request of the latter, a full statement was sent on. The Mayor represented to Gen. II. the great Importance of the work, and the advantages to bo attained by the improvement of the uaroor.

Oen. Weitzel and PI Benyard will probably leave the city tj day. The K.eirt is as follows New Orleans, April 8, 1873. Hon. E.

Pilsbury, Mayor of New Orleans Si) The Board of Engineers convened at tqe request of the city to examine and report upon the means necessary to. protect the wharves and harbor from the Incursions of the river, beg to submit the following Ref errlns: to your letter of November 17. 1877, the engineering Information requested of the board was as follows 1. A thorough and complete survey of the xlver and its bank from the upper to the lower limit of the city. ri vintr cross sections of the stream every halt mile and the direction of the current.

3. A plan for the temporary preservation of the banks and wharves from destruction. To apply only to the must exposed points, and adapted to the present resources of the city, which are limited, accompanied by estimates. 3 A more general and comprehensive plan, embracing the rivnr front of the Seo ond and Third Districts, as a permanent work, with estimates so as to be commenced and carried on gradually, as the future prosperity of the city may admit. Itn fnrmnr uuainn of th twta.nl hAlrl Vik vember last, a preliminary report wes rendered, your Honor respecting the condition of affairs along the city front.

In this the Ttueans necessary to be taken to preserve the most exposed points, (which were at the loot of Sorapuru street, and at the foot of Montegat street) were presented, and the execution of the plans was intrusted to and carried out under the direction of the tl a 1 outlined, which was to embrace the entire city front, from Carroll ton to a point below the United 8tates Barracks, or so much of it at least, as needed permanent protection. board was unprepared at the time to decide upon all the details to be observed in this permanent plan of protection, owing to the lack of the necessary information respecting the condition of the oav ing banks, their extent, their composition, slope, depth of water, all of which could only be furnished by an exhaustive and extensive survey such as was called for by your letter. This survey was undertaken under the personal suierviaion of the local members of the board, with aid furnished ly the Government and by the city, and was carried to a successful termination. It is complete and thorough in all the details neoessary for a proper study of the problem submitted to the board. It extended from a point above Carrollton, to a point below the Barracks, embracing also the right bank of the and was made in three sections.

Section first started from a point some 3300 feet above the Metairie Road at the upper end of a plank revetment, where there is a wide batture, and followed the left bank to the Orleans Park, where there is also a wide batture, a total distance of 22,243 feet. At intervals of 100 feet lines of sounding were made, extending out from 300 to 40S feet, and where there were caving banks intermediate lines were sounded. Thirty four sections were also sounded across the river in this stretch, and from 100 to 120 soundings were located on each section. Thirty of thane cross nArtinns wpre nAArlv at th umn point as those made in the survey of 1851 by Capt. (now Gen.) Humphreys.

From the Orleans Park to Canal street, there being no caving of theleftbank.no survey of that linn van mad. Section second commenced at Canal street, and the shore line was run from that point to the slaughter house, a distance of 21.800 leet. On this stretch were made at each 100 feet as before, extending out Into the river from 300 to 400 feet Twenty cross sections were also sounded at nearly equal Intervals, but only about 80 soundings were located on each one. Section third Included the right bank of the river and commenced at a point 3450 feet above the lock at Westwego, and extended uuwn iu mo uvuib tti Algiers, tutu is some feet in length. Soundings were made at intervals as in Jhe surveys of other sections and, nineteen cross sections were sounded across the river between the lower end of the Carrollton section and Canal etreet, thus filling that interval.

Gauges were kept at Carrollton. Canal street, the Mint and at the United States Barrack, and all soundings were reduced to the same plane of reference as that of the Delta survey, and reads on the Carrollton gauge 15.70. The condition of the banks as developed by the survey is as follows From the upper end ot the Carrollton survey to station 180, there is a widebattnre. and no caving going on at present; from station 186 to station 91, (at head of CanvllMn Avenue,) there is more or less cavin of tbe bank throughout the whole distance Between stations 140 and 157, gome 6o fuet of the bank have caved in since ml at the Carrollton Hotel, which is at the lower end of the present cutting iu that time some 200 feet Lave gave in. The wal length of the caving in this section is 921m reet.

From station 91 down to station 55. there have been about 200 feet caved in sm. 1858, but there is little, if any, caving going on now except In two places, one about seo and the other about 200 feet long. Iielow station 65 there is a nil at present ann a wide Below Canal street, rvm Morgan's wharf, at station 10, to station urn, a distance of 15, 000 feet, the bank needs more or less protection. It has.

however, only been deemed advisable to apply Protective to the slope of the hank from Morgan's wharr to Congress street, a distance of 7500 feet, leaving the remaining portion of the city, below that point to be protected by a new levee. On tlie right bank the Bpace through which the caving takes place extends from station 49 to 178 below the locks, ana from station 296 to 476 above, and at Algiers, a total length of 31,700 feet. The board however does not deem It at present absolutely ne Jcessary to apply the works of protection to this entire stretch of bank, but only to a Frortiou. embracing Nine Mile Point. The ocations of the different caving banks at which it is proposed apply the works of protection can euer be understood Iy reference to the sketch map accompanying the report, while at the same time an inspection of the index and detailed maps will give all the information Tespecting the depths of water, slope of Iiank, composition, much more fully than can be indicated or enumerated In the report.

The results of the survey of the bnts that they are composed of a hard olue jnud. with intermediate soft strif. md ihese soft strata crop outnt varyiug flpntlis. a shown adjauent line of v.m.I Ji ov me i4 are qoite tvBu.r 1 in others quite irregular, as if deposited The cavlnga result from the saturation of these layers of soft material which are afterwards washed, or cut out, causing the superincumbent mass to fall or slide into the river. This caving takes place mostly upon a falling river, the high water seeming to act, oy its pressure, in sustaining the bank.

These 80ft Strata occur at various depths, from near the surface to near the bottom of the river, and the greater or less amount of cave seem to depend upon their relative position. In order, then, to retain the bank in its natural position the remedy to be applied would seem to be some method by which the cutting out of tbe defective strata could be prevented. This is best subserved by applying to the bank a revetment so as to cover the whole slope or so much of It as Is likely to be affected. The banks along the city front present conditions not unfavorable to the successful application of a project such as was outlined in our preliminary report of November last. The general method indicated there was to cover the elope of the bank with a revet ment of brueh and stone in such shapes and forms as best suited the particular locality where it was to be applied.

While much more costly applications of timber and stone might subserve the object in view, those of brush and stone in the shape ot matting applied to the banks have the merit, that while suitable for the purpose they are comparatively cheap, are durable, and are easily adapted to the Irregular slopes of tbe bask cansed by the caving. At the same time the carpeting of the hank In such a manner causes no undue'eontratction of the water way, and allows tbe current to move along in its natural course. At' the upper section of the river, at Carrollton, and on the right bank, above Algiers, where there are nolwharves, it is proposed, in accordance with the above views, to cover the slopes from a short distance above low water to a distance out such that all defective strata will be protected, by a layer of brash formed into rafts and ballasted with stone sufficient to keep them in position. Along the section of the rrver from Morgan's wharf to the foot of Congress street, it is proposed to form a bulkhead extending the entire distance in a line with the outer row of wharf piles, by driving Piles In Pairs the distance between the centres of each pair being 6 feet and between the piles of each pair 3 feet. These piles in pairs are bolted together at low water and at the top.

Between the piles and extending up and down stream brush fascines are piled up to low water mark, forming, 00 to speak, a brush wall. Above low water mark on the outside of the piles, planks are placed extending to high water mark. From the foot of this row of piles, extending out as far as may be necessary to cover all defective strata, a layer of brush and atone in suitable form is laid upon the slope. The object in not continuing the revetment clear up to the banks, as in the other districts, is that it has been found from experience that great ditiiculiy and expense will attend the removal of the great number of piles and timber work now forming the wharves and occupying a portion of the slope needing protection, and which it would be necessary to remove were it determined to carpet the entire slope, adding considerably to the expense, and more than the circumstances would warrant. Statistics at the disposal of the board Indicate that the largest interests involved are in section 2, from Morgan's wharf to Congress street.

It therefore seems expedient that the proposed measures of protection should be first applied to that part of the shore. Similar reasons indicate that the work on the Carrollton Section No. 1, should be next dose, and finally, that work above Nine Mile Point, on the right bank, which is essential, as a protection to the works in section and the shore below. The following are the estimates for the protection of so much of the city front as the board deems absolutely essential at the present time to the preservation of the wharves and harbor, though eventually the protection of the entire front may have to be undertaken. These estimates being approximations, the board has sought to make them sufficiently large to cover all eontin fencies, leaving to the engineer who may ave charge of the construction of the work a certain latitude whereby such changes as may appear necessary and as circumstances call for can be made as the work progresses.

The following is the substance of the charges made by Leonard Sewell while in Washington, against M. A. Carter, the Special Agent, who has been representing the Government in the log affairs in Calcasieu 1. It Is charged by Sewell that Carter improperly approached him and told him it would be to his (Sewell's) advantage to co oxerate with Carter in the appraisement of the logs seized by the Government should Sewell not consent, all Carter's "Influence in Washington, which was great, would be used against Sewell. 2.

Carter and Deputy Marshal Gaiuey obstructed Sewell and other appraisers in the performance of their duties. 3. Sewell was threatened with violence by an armed Deputy Marshal (Gaiuey). actio? under orders from Carter, Jack Wharton, and District Attorney Lacey. 4.

The second charge is here repeated, and it is further charged that Carter personally defied the orders of Chamberlain's court, under pretense of being authorized to do so by the department at Washington which he was representing. 5. By false representations as to the value of the logs Carter induced Judge Billings to set aside Sewell's appraisement. 6. Carter conspired with certain parties in Calcasieu to abstain from bidding at the sale ot the logs, in oraer that Carter's friends might buy in the logs at a small cost and sell them afterwards at a pro tit.

7. Deputy Marshal Gainey, acting under instructions from Carter, seized the steam tug Alert, by boarding her with United States troops and presenting a pistol at the head of Capt. Horn. 8. Ex United States Commissioner Chamberlain was aproached by Carter and urged to convict and send Horn to New Orleans.

Chamberlain refused to do this. JuBt received, a new lot of Adler Clement's children's patent leather tip shoos, at tool. Lion 112 Baronne street. Improvement of Red River. Petition to Congress.

To the hon arable the members of the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States, in Congress assembled The undersigned memorialists respectfully ask that an appropriation may be made for the improvement of the navigation of Red River from Jefferson, Texas, to its mouth, for the following reasons March, 1878. Recent soundings show that old River" continues to nil np with sediment, indications are that by July it will be dry and no navigation through it till the next high water which generally comes from Decembor to January or February each pea oop The commerce of the Red River is next In importance to that of the Mississippi and Ohio River. The people of a large portion or Louisiana, and a considerable portion of Texas. Arkansas and tbe Indian Nation are entirely dependent on it as their only means of access to the markets of the country. The people of New Orleans and of the Red River Valley are not alone interested in the improvement of the navigation of this river, for the population of this valley are large consumers of the merchandise, manufactured goods and products of the Eastern and Western States, and increased facilities lor commerce, cheaper freights and Insurance will add largely to the volume of trade between the different sections our country.

The navigation Of this river is very dangerous and extremely difficult and uncertain. From Its mouth, where It empties into the Mississippi River, to Sbreveport. and Jefferson, Texas, the channel is obstructed bv logs, snags, wrecks and leaning timber, to such an extent that few insurance companies will take hull risks at all. Not more than three or four Insurance companies out of the large number In New Orleans will underwrite for boats engaged iu that trade. The costof insuring boats navigating Red River is nearly double that charged boats on the Ohio or Mississippi.

Although the very highest standard of strength for boats engaged in this trade is required by the underwriters, and they will insure on none ethers, yet the percentage of damage to them caused by the obstructions is fully ten times greater than to boats running either on the Ohio or the Mississippi, and of all the boats navigating this river during the past twelve months, (twenty or u.ore.) not more than one or two have escaped serious damage and several have been sunk. Others have had to be docked and repaired at large expense several of them as many as four or five times during the season. During the low water season, which ordinarily beging about the latter part of July ond often lasts run til the first of anuary, boats experience a great deal of trouble in Old River, between the mouth of Red River and the Mississippi proper, Old River being the former chaanel of the Mississippi. All boats navigating the Red, Ouachita andAt chaf alaj a Rivers have to pass this place. At the present time (December.

1376,) the navigation of these rivers is totally suspended, boats being unable to pass this Eiece of river. Three fourths of all the oats employed in running these rivers are now detained there with full cargoes on board, and will have to wait till the rivers rife. But a few years ago nearly all the waters of the Red and Ouachita Rivers passed through Old River to the Mississippi. At that time the Atchafalaya River was a small stream, fOTdable at low water. It Is now from seventy five to one hundred leet deep, and nearly all of the waters of Red and Ouachita rivers pass through it to the Gulf.

Old River is fast filling up with seaiment. There is great danger that it will permanently close, and navigation through it be lost, if prompt measures are not taken to avert the evil. A qnater of a million bales cotton, mary thousands of hogsheads sugar and barrels molasses, 150.000 sacks cotton seed, 30.000 head of cattle, and large amounts of grain, hides, come out through Old River annually to the markets of the country, and a corresponding amount of general merchandise destined to tbe Interior of Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas and the Indian Nation passes in there is no other route by which this commerce can be carried. As a further evidence of the dangers attending the navigation of Red River, we may add that the insurance on cargoes from New Orleans to Shreveport, a distance of about 650 miles, is the same as to Alton, 111., a distance of about 1275 miles, and to Cincinnati, on the Ohio, a distance of 1600 miles. We believe that the improvements in Old River can be easily made.

That the obstructions In Red River can be readily removed, and its navigation rendered as safe as that of the Mississippi River. It will be necessary to do some work on the Falls at Alexandria. in order to improve the channel, and make the navigation at that point safe. Your memorialists respectfully ask, therefore, the consideration of this important matter, and for an appropriation of $200,001 to improve the navigation of the Red and Old Rivers from Jefferson, Texas, to the Mississippi River, so as to free them from the great dangers and difficulties which now attend them. And your memorialists will ever pray.

The Private Market Question. Last evening, at half past 6 o'clock, the case of Victor Ausemon and L. Follen, charged by G. C. Boasso with violating section 9 of tbe market ordinance, came up for trial before Judge Miltenberger, of the Second Recorder's Court, Messrs.

Tucker and Kerr, attorneys for the defendants and Arthur Gastinel for the prosecution. The court room was filled by persons interested in theiesult. Tbe charge is that Ausemon and Folleu did "willfully and malicion sly" violate the ordinance "by conveying in their 0 arts or wagons vegetables to supply the said market, and did supply the said market." "by selling said vegetables to persons occupying stalls in the said market during tbe hours forbidden by section 8," by remaining at the above market with their carts, or wagons, between the hours of 6 and 7 o'clock, A. on Thursday, April the 4ih." Col. Tucker argued that the case could be appealed to directly from the court and a bill of exceptions tiled that if the case was decided against their clients, the evidence, in short hand, should be taken and submitted on tbe appeal to the Supreme Court.

Mr. Gastinel maintained that this court was not a court of record and that no bills of exceptions could be filed. Col. Tucker contended that the new market ordinance was not a police ordinance, and that section 31, which conferred the power of trial for violation of its provisions before "a police justice," to line, and imprison, was illegal aud unconstitutional as no such official as a police justice" existed under the law creating Recorders' courts. Judge Miltenberger, in deciding upon the questions raised, observed that, in his opinion, he did not consider an appeal could be made dtrovtly from this court to the Supreme Court of the State but that the proper manner to proceed by the counsel for the delendants (should the case be decided against their clients) was for them to sue out a writ of habeas corpus, which would bring the ease immediately before the Supreme Court.

Relative to the legality and constitutionality of the ordinance, or any of its provisions, the Judge said his duty was simply to decide upon the facts and merits of the cese, under the ordinance which, if violated, he must impose the penalty and if not violated, oiscbarge the the case. To attempt to decide, or even raise the question in his official capacity, as to the legality or constitutionality of an ordinance or law, would be improper, if not illegal, in a committing magistrate when the hfgher courts are open to pass upon each grave question. Judge Miltenberger maintained that a police justice, recorder, or a committing magistrate, according to the strict letter of the law, were one and the same, and that a recorder was a police justice and a committing magistrate. The arguments pro and con were quite lengthy, and Mr. Gastinel having withdrawn his objection to the tiling of a bill of except'ons, on the ground of being imtna teria', by consent of counsel on both sides it was decided to go into the merits of the case, and further trial be postponed until Wednesday evening, at half past 0 o'clock.

The Fall Elections. The Democratic Central Committee holds a meeting on the 1st of next month. This meeting will be the practical opening of the campaign of 1873, and Is designed with a view of recasting election tactics. Till then electioneering matters win be uo rota, and after that date every man will be at liberty to proclaim his individual views of patriotism and its demands. It must not be understood, however, that the politicians will remain slumbering in the meantime in fact, the assertion may be ventured that they never slumber they are always wideawake.

Already are there many Sheriffs in embryo, Mayors, Administrators, Senators, Representatives, all possessing qualifications peculiar to themselves, and which should recommend them as exception ably fitted for the office of their individual asiiiation. A slight rumbling of campaign noise is heard in the wards, and unwarranted nominations are at once made and condemned. Some vexation is experienced by reason of the uncertainty as to the lines which may be drawn in the fall campaign, but this merely serves as a greater stimulus to ambition. Fumigated Fruit. What Dr.

Cliopplu Has to tiaj en the Subject. Messrs. Berry ard Oteri, representing the fruit dealers, called yesterday Ion the Governor and presented the petition and resolutions in relation to fumigation, which have already been published. The Governor Btated that he would give tbe matter his consideration. Subsequently he hald a private conversation on the eubject with Dr.

CI oppin, Piesident of the Board of Health. Dr. Choppin, in speaking to the writer, said it would be necessary to continue tbe fumigation of all vessels coming from dangerous localities aud seemed to think that the best plan for the fruit dealers to adopt would be to find some means of taking out their cargoes at the Quarantine Station and replacing them of ter the vessels had been fumigated. Dr. C.

6aid that when it came to a question of excluding all danger of an epidemic it was not a time to count the cost. He called attention to the fact that in 1853 a schooner brought from Kingston, the germs of the disease which cansed the death of at least 10,000 people In this city, and produced untold suffering and commercial losses. Port Antonio, from which the schooner Dyer had cleared, was on the same island, the dimensions of which were so small that infection could easily spread from one portion to another. Tonro Alms House. Taking of Testimony Resumes.

The taking of testimony in the case of the Touro Alms House, destroyed by fire while occupied by United States soldiers, in 1863, was resumed yesterday in the office of W. H. Seymour, notary public The object of the examination is to lay the basis of a elaim asamst the Government for the cost of the building, about $80,000. John A. Let ten, testified that he was lieutenant of police, in 1865.

in the Third District. In the earlier part of tne fall of lsti5, witness was making his night round, and being in the neighborhood of the Touro Aluis House, ne heard the cry of fire, and repairing to the corner of Morean and Piety streets, saw a tire in one of the upper stories. The flame seemed small at the time. The witness asked the seatry to admit him. telling him that he could easily put out the fire.

The sentry said iiis orders were to let no one in. Witness requested him to call the eorporal of the euard, but the sentry told witness to do so himself. The Fire Department subsequently appeared on the scene and put up their ladders against the building. Some one cried out that there was powder in the building, and the firemen retreated. The building was then occupied by colored troops in the service of the United States.

It is proposed to conclude the taking of evidence to day. Col. Frank Zacharie represents the city In the matter. Red River Navigation. The following telegram was recived by Capt.

Aiken yesterday C'pt. Jos. A. Aiken I was sent awav on a special committee by tbe House, and failed to get before the ommittee on Commerce in behalf of Red River. I am promised a hearing before the Senate committee, and believe I can get the bill amended so as to save Red River.

Seud me at once all statistics of the commerce of Ked River and its tributaries; also information in regard to snags and bars, and losses rberefrom, and all Information generally in regard to the river and Its tributaries. E. John Ellis. Washington, April 8, 1878. Mr.

Ellis, in accordance with his request, will soon be in possession of all data respecting Red River navigation, the hydraulics of the river, its commerce, etc. $25 Reward. The New Orleans Gun Club have caused to be republished in circular form the act of 1878, prohibiting the killing of certain game within specified periods. In connection with the same they offer a reward of $25 for the arrest and conviction of any person violating this law. Their attention has already been called to some infractions of this law, and they are determined to prosecute the parties accused.

Frogmoor. The Lilienthal Cup Wen by Dudley Selph. The first long range shooting match since the return of the team from Creedmoor took place Sunday at the C. C. R.

C. Pavk. The weather was bad, a strong fish tail wind blowing from 3 to 8 o'clock, P. M. The contestants were somewhat out of practice, not haviDg shot for six months, but managed to roll np reasonable scores.

The champion labored under a few difficulties, as, for instance, the bursting of shells aud getting his face scorched, but nevertheless mauageu to win the cup by oue point, by making a egg on the last shot. A crack offhand shot, who has been boast iDg of his remarkable scores, and how ettsy it was to shoot at the lung ranges, entered the lists for the cup and? succeeded in making the unparalleled score of thirty nine forty live shots; score, 15 out a possible 225. He offered as an excuse that the gun was not the kind of weapon he was familiar with, and that a 1000 yards target loots a long way off when shooting at it. He retired with a sprained linger and a swollen cheek. Our military boys were out trying the 200 snd 600 yards ranges.

The Crescent Rifles, Crescent Grays. Louisiana Field Artillery and Continental Guards were well represented, and did 6ome good work. Such scores as 41', 41, 41, 39, 38 and 33 out of a possible 50 are not easily beaten. Our cbam piODS, the W. A.

moreover, that the city could at any time take possession of the property. An effort will probably be made to amend the ordinance bo as to make its provisions satisfactory, and if this cannot be done, no action will be taken in the matter. The Lee Monument. It is learned that preparations for the erection of the Lee Monument in Tirol! Circle, are being poshed forward with considerable aotivity. The granite and other materials have been ordered.

It will be necessary, however, to raise about $10,000 or $15,000 to complete the work. It is proposed by the Continental Guards to give on the 14th, 15th and 16 tn of May, at the Opera entertainments for the benefit of the fund, to ooa sist of tableaux, vooal aud instrumental muj ic, etc. The Monumental Association ia also to organize bi auxiliary committee cf ladies to originate measures lor the same object. Capitol Notes. The collections of State taxes up to March 31 amount to about $262,000, of which amount about $35,000 goes to the general fund.
