 SIR: I have the honor to submit herewith a report dated the llth instant, from the Chief of 
 Engineers, embodying the information, so far as the same can be furnished from the records of his 
 office, called for by a resolution of the House of Representatives, dated January 11, 1883, as 
 follows : 
 
 Resolved, That the President be requested to transmit to the House a statement showing the aggregate amount 
 which has been expended in the improvement of rivers and harbors from the beginning of the Government to the 
 present time, the amount annually expended, the aggregate and annual expenditure in the improvement of each 
 river and each harbor, and, as far as practicable, the amount expended iu each State, accompanied by references to 
 the laws authorizing each of such expenditures, and also a statement showing, in brief, what benefit to commerce, if 
 any, has resulted from each of said expenditures, and stating the navigable capacity of each of said rivers and har- 
 bors before and after improvement ; and also to inform the House whether any moneys have been appropriated or 
 expended in the improvement of rivers or harbors not navigable within the legal definition of the word navigable as 
 denned by the Supreme Court of the United States; and also to inform this House whether any money has been 
 appropriated or expended for the improvement of any river or harbor not within the United States, with such other 
 information as he may deem proper to communicate. 
 
 I also have the honor to submit as supplemental to the report of the Chief of Engineers a 
 statement prepared in the Treasury Department in relation to expenditures for rivers and harbors 
 from the beginning of the Government to the 30th of June, 1882, referred to by the Chief of 
 Engineers, as giving information not recorded in his office prior to the year 1871. 
 
 The resolution which was referred by you to this Department for the desired information is 
 herewith returned. 
 
 Very respectfully, your obedient servant, 
 
 ROBERT T. LINCOLN, 
 
 Secretary of War.

 OFFICE OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, 
 
 UNITED STATES ARMY, 
 Washington, I). C., January 11, 1884. 
 
 SIR : In reply to the reference to this office of the resolution of the House of Representatives 
 of January 11, 1883, requesting the President to transmit to the House certain .specifi.ee! information 
 respecting the expenditures for river and harbor improvements, and the benefit to commerce 
 resulting therefrom, I have the honor to state that as regards the financial exhibit called for by 
 this resolution, the records of this office embrace at present only the amounts annually expended 
 on eah work of improvement since 1871, with the total expenditure for such works during the 
 same period, and that similar information covering in full the period "from the beginning of the 
 Government" to the date of the resolution can only be found in the Treasury Department, to which 
 the accounts of all disbursements are transmitted for settlement after examination in this office, 
 and which, besides, had. in some cases, the control and disbursements of such works in the earlier 
 days of the Government. As supplying, therefore, this information, I would respectfully refer 
 to Senate Ex. Doc. No. 196, Forty-seventh Congress, first session, which contains, in detail, the 
 expenditures of the United States from March 4, 1789, to June 30, 1882, for public buildings and 
 other public works, and for rivers and harbors, forts, arsenals and armories, transmitted to the 
 Senate by the honorable the Secretary of the Treasury, in compliance with the requirements of a 
 resolution of that body of July 22, 1882. This document shows "the aggregate amount which has 
 been expended in the improvement of rivers and harbors from the beginning of the Government 
 (to June 30, 1882); the amount annually expended; the aggregate and annual expenditure in the 
 improvement of each river and each harbor, and the amount expended in eacfi State, accompanied 
 by references to the laws authorizing each of such expenditures," and fully covers the requirements 
 of the resolution of the House of Representatives of January 11, 1883, up to the above date, as 
 far as relates to the expenditures of public moneys for the purposes in question. 
 
 To comply with requirements contained in the succeeding part of this resolution, there is trans- 
 mitted herewith "a statement, showing in brief," as far as the records of this office will admit, an 
 account of "all river and harbor improvements upon which public moneys have been expended," 
 with "the navigable capacity of each river or harbor before and after improvement," and, as far 
 as practicable, " the benefit to commerce" resulting therefrom. 
 
 In this statement, the several public works are arranged in the order in use in this office, as 
 follows : 
 
 1. Harbors and rivers on the Atlantic coast, and 
 
 2. On the Gulf of Mexico. 
 
 3. Western rivers. 
 
 4. Harbors and rivers on the Northern and Northwestern Lakes, and 
 
 5. On the Pacific coast. 
 
 As this arrangement differs from that adopted by the Treasury in the above-named document, 
 No. 196, reference is made under the head of each work to the page of this document upon which 
 the corresponding financial statement will be found, and in continuation thereof there is also added, 
 under the head of each work, the amount appropriated, if any, by the river and harbor act of 
 August 2, 1882. and the amount expended thereon during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1883. 
 
 With respect to " the benefit to commerce that has resulted from each expenditure," it should 
 be remarked that although an increase of the -depth of a harbor or its approaches, or the opening 
 of a river to navigation, or the permanent increase of its depth, are benefits to commerce by creating 
 greater facilities for navigation, the extent of this benefit is not readily ascertained. It cannot 
 invariably be found by a comparison of the commercial statistics of late years with those of a former 
 period taken from the reports of the officers in charge of the improvement, because there is no 
 reliable source from which these statistics can always be obtained by them, and that they are fre- 
 quently estimates of interested parties. Nor does it follow that unless there has been an increase 
 of commerce the benefit resulting from the improvement has been of little value, since an increase 
 or diminution of commerce may arise from local causes entirely independent of the facilities afforded 
 to navigation by the improvement itself. A comparison of the money value of the trade at different 
 dates does not always indicate the relative benefit to commerce for the same reason. Nor does a 
 comparison of the number of vessels trading at a port or on a river invariably indicate the com- 
 parative amount of commerce, since an increase of the depth obtained by improvement enables the 
 employment of vessels of a larger class, and although trade may have become greater, the number 
 of vessels engaged in it may be less. 
 
APPROPRIATIONS AND EXPENDITURES FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS. iii 
 
 m 
 
 It is farther required by this resoluticm to inform the House " whether any moneys have been 
 appropriated or expended upon the improvement of rivers or harbors not navigable within the legal 
 definition of the word navigable as defined by the Supreme Court of the United States." 
 
 The Supreme Court declares (11 Wallace, 411) that 
 
 1. A river is a navigable water of the United States when it forms by itself, or by tts connection with other 
 waters, a continuous highway over which commerce is or may be carried on with other States or foreign countries in 
 the customary modes in which such commerce is conducted by water. 
 
 And- 
 
 2. If a river is not of itself a high way for commerce with other States or foreign countries, or does not form such 
 highway by its connection with other waters, and is only navigable between different places within the State, then it 
 is not a navigable water of the United States, but only a navigable water of the State. 
 
 The following localities of works of improvement upon which public moneys have been 
 expended fall within the above definition : 
 
 Lake Winnepissiogee, Neic Hampshire. This lake and its tributaries lie wholly within the State, 
 their waters being the chief source of the Merrimac River. A dam built at its outlet forms a 
 reservoir of these waters, which is under the control of an incorporated company, by which the 
 water-power is regulated and supplied to factories along the Merrimac below. They do not form 
 by themselves, or by their connection with other waters, a continued highway over which commerce 
 is or may be carried on with other States. 
 
 The Yadkin River, within the limits of North Carolina, is entirely cut off by a narrow mountain 
 defile of 30 feet width through which it descends, in a torrent, 50 feet in 2 miles, and has, at pres- 
 ent, no navigable connection with its lower part, known as the Great Pee Dee. 
 
 French Broad River in North Carolina. The navigable connection between this and the lower 
 portions of the river in Tennessee is interrupted below Asheville by rocky rapids, having a descent 
 of about 18 feet to the mile, and not susceptible of any practical improvement. The outlet for the 
 trade of this portion of the river is dependent upon two railroads recently completed. 
 
 To complete the requirements of this resolution, I would further state that no " money has been 
 appropriated or expended for the improvement of any river or harbor not within the United States." 
 Improvements have, however, been made, or are in progress, of channels, portions of which form 
 international boundaries. 
 
 The resolution of the House of Representatives of January 11, 1883, is herewith returned.

 BEBAKWATEE IN SAINT OEOIX E1VBE NEAE CALAIS, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 147.) 
 
 Built in 1856 of crib-work, ballasted with stone ; rebuilt in 1881, it having become dilapidated 
 from decay of the timber. Its object is to prevent vessels being forced by tidal currents upon 
 "The Ledge," 5 miles below Calais. It has answered its object in a very satisfactory manner. 
 
 Value of imports at Calais for 1881, $362,000 ; exports, $1,500,000. 
 
 LUBEC CHANNEL, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 144.) 
 
 This channel forms the eastern boundary of the State of Maine. First appropriation, 1879. 
 Before improvement it was only available for navigation at high water, the least depth over 
 several bars being only 5 feet at mean low water. When completed it will give a direct passage 
 at all times of tide for vessels bound to Eastport, Calais, and other American ports, saving a 
 distance of 16 miles around Campo Bello Island. It will also become available for refuge to a 
 safe anchorage. The amount estimated for its completion is $25,000. In 1881, amount of imports 
 in the collection districts, $755,760; exports, $355,310.

 MACHIAS EIVBE, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 145.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1873. The improvement has been the deepening of the channel and the 
 removal of a large rock in front of Machias. The available depth has been increased from 3 feet 
 to 6 feet at mean low water, with a channel of approach 100 feet wide, by which commercial 
 facilities have been materially increased. 
 
 MOOSB-A-BEC BAE AT JONESPOET, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 145.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. Located on a frequented thoroughfare for sailing vessels and steam- 
 ers, which before improvement was tortuous and obstructed by dangerous ledges of rock. It has 
 been straightened and deepened from 6 feet to 14 feet at mean low water. When completed, this 
 channel, now 85 feet, will be 200 feet wide and wilL add greatly to the ease and safety of general 
 navigation, and benefit the large fleet of vessels constantly passing that are engaged in trade with 
 the British Provinces. Estimate for completion, $20,000.

 First appropriation, 1876. Work commenced in 1879 and completed in 1880. Consisted of 
 the removal of sunken ledges and shoals to a depth of 10 feet at mean low water, increasing the 
 facilities of access, and permitting the use of larger vessels.

2 APPROPRIATIONS AND EXPENDITURES FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS. 
 
 NARRAGUAGUS RIVER, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 145.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1871. Before improvement the channel had a depth of over 2 feet at low 
 water, obstructed by rocks and ledges, by the removal of which a navigable depth of 6 feet at 
 low water has been obtained. 
 
 A considerable increase of the lumber business has resulted from this improvement. 
 
 SULLIVAN'S RIVER AND FALLS, MAINE. 
 
 (Pago 147.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1871. Before improvement the least depth on one of the most dangerous 
 ledges, Hatcher's Rock, was only 6 inches at low water. There is now a clear channel of 300 feet 
 in width and 7 to 10 feet depth. 
 
 The removal of this and other dangerous rock obstructions has greatly increased the lumber 
 and granite business of this region. 
 
 UNION RIVER, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 148.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1870. Before improvement portions of the channel were dry at low water. 
 There is now a depth of 3 to 4 feet at that stage, or 15 feet at high water. 
 
 By deepening this stream and clearing it of rocks and other obstructions from its mouth to 
 Ellsworth, the head of tide, commercial facilities have been very much increased. 
 
 PENOBSCOT RIVER AND BAT, INCLUDING HARBORS AT BANGOR, BUCKSPORT, 
 
 AND CAMDEN, MAINE. 
 
 (Pages 143 and 145.) 
 
 The improvements at and in the vicinity of these points may be classed together as having, 
 by removal of obstructions and deepening of channels, very much increased the facilities of navi- 
 gation on the Penobscot, permitting the use of larger vessels and developing local business to a 
 corresponding extent. 
 
 At all these harbors there were before improvement bars and shoals with 2, 3, and 4 feet of 
 water. New channels of 12 feet at low water are now available. 
 
 ROCKLAND HARBOR, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 147.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The project adopted for this improvement consists in the construc- 
 tion of two breakwaters, one from Jameson Point, the other from South Ledge, the estimated cost 
 of which is $550,000. 
 
 The breakwater at Jameson Point has been undertaken first. Even in its present very incom- 
 plete condition it has shown its value by vessels having already taken advantage of it for refuge. 
 
 A breakwater at OwVs Head (page 145), 5 miles south of Rockland, was commenced under 
 appropriation of 1852, but never completed. This new one at Rockland, a much better locality, will 
 advantageously take its place. This harbor is situated at the entrance of all the thoroughfares 
 leading to important ports to the east of it, which send out during the year thousands of vessels 
 loaded with valuable cargoes.

 July 1, 1883, amount available 3,461 57 
 
 KENNEBEO RIVER, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 143.) 
 
 Small appropriations for the improvement of this river were made at intervals between the 
 years 1827 and 1852. Work of improvement was resumed in 1866. The depth of water has been 
 increased from 2 feet to 10 feet at mean low water from Richmond to Gardiner, and thence 6 feet 
 at mean low water to Augusta. 
 
 The ice business on this river, which is of great importance, has been largely increased and 
 facilitated by this improvement. 
 
 RICHMOND HARBOR, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 146.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. The appropriation of 1882 will complete the work projected. 
 
 The work is intended for the maintenance of a depth of 10 feet at mean low water to Rich-

 CATHANCE EIVER, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 143.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The principal obstruction to navigation is at the outer bar, where 
 the channel of the river enters the Kennebec, where there was but 6 feet at mean low water. 
 Owing to the shifting character of this bar, it is not believed that any work, unless at a cost too 
 great to be warranted, would effect a permanent improvement of the channel. Two other bars 
 lying between this and the mouth of the Cathance Eiver can be more effectually improved. 
 Dredging on the outer bar has been completed to the extent projected, a depth of 10 feet at mean 
 low water, and work is in progress on the other bars. 
 
 The interest is local ; and the improvement thus far has resulted in but little benefit to 
 commerce.

 "GUT" OPPOSITE BATH, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 143.) 
 
 This is a part of Back Eiver, a tidal river 9 miles in length connecting Kennebec Eiver 
 at Bath with the tidewaters of Sheepscot Bay, and affords a short communication between the 
 Kennebec and towns on or near the waters of the Sheepscot. The navigation here was much 
 improved with appropriations made in 1870, 1871. Additional appropriations have been made 
 since 1878, and the projected improvement is now nearly completed, and a navigation opened of 
 not less than 11 feet at mean low water. 
 
 The commerce benefited is that of the collection district of Bath, in which in 1881 there were 
 departures, 1,945 vessels, arrivals 1,915; vessels built 55, of 36,334 tons; 800,000 tons of ice 
 shipped ; 1,600,000 feet of lumber shipped. 
 
 July 1, 1882, amount available $2,981 75 
 
 July 1, 1883, amount expended during fiscal year, exclusive of outstanding liabilities 
 July 1, 1882 2,981 75 
 
 ROYALS EIVER, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 147.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1871. The projected improvement, completed in 1873, increased the 
 depth to Yarmouth from 1 foot at mean low water to 5 feet, greatly benefiting navigation. 
 
 The principal business of Yarmouth is ship-building, it being one of the largest ship-building 
 towns in Maine. 
 
 The estimated value of its commerce, at the time of beginning the improvement, was 
 $1,523,500 annually. No recent statistics are at hand. 
 
 Amount appropriated by act passed Augusts, 1882 ; $10,000 00

 PORTLAND HAEBOE, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 146.) 
 
 A breakwater on Stamford's Ledge for the protection of the inner harbor was partly built 
 with appropriations of 1836, 1837, and 1838. The appropriations of 1866 and since that date have 
 been applied to the completion of the breakwater and to dredging to 20 feet at mean low water 
 of bars and shoal ground in the harbor, where there was originally on occasional shoal spots 
 bat 4 feet.

 The breakwater answers well the purposes of its construction, and the dredging, which is 
 still in progress, has had a marked effect in increasing the facility of access of large steam and 
 sail vessels, and the whole improvement is of decided benefit to commerce. 
 
 In 1881, value of exports, $11,907,671; imports, $10,410,384.

 RICHMOND ISLAND HAEBOR, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 147.) 
 
 A harbor of refuge has been formed here by a rubble-stone breakwater, connecting the island 
 with the mainland, and has considerably increased the shelter for vessels. The harbor formed 
 by the breakwater affords safe anchorage and good holding-ground for vessels of the largest class 
 with the wind from any point except the southwest. 
 
 SACO RIVER, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 147.) 
 
 First appropriations, 1824 and 1827. Work resumed in 1866 and finished in 1874. 
 The navigable capacity of the stream has not been changed, but the breakwater built at the 
 entrance to the rivers and piers along the channel have materially increased the facilities of 
 navigation. 
 
 KENNEBUNK RIVER, MAINE. 
 (Page 144.) 
 
 Appropriations made at intervals between the years 1829 and 1852. Work resumed with 
 appropriation of 1870 and finished in 1881. The piers built in the river have improved the 
 channel, and the dredging at several points has increased the depth 5 feet. 
 
 The improvement of the river has been of material advantage to the ship-building interest 
 centered here. 
 
 July 1, 1882, amount available $1,028 85 
 
 July 1, 1883, amount available 1,028 85 
 
 WELLS HAEBOE, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 148.) 
 
 The improvement in this harbor has consisted in the repair of an old Government pier built 
 thirty or forty years ago for the purpose of straightening and deepening the channel over the bar 
 at the entrance to the harbor. The work was completed in 1873, and has somewhat increased the 
 facilities of access to the harbor. 
 
 The commerce of the place is small and unimportant. 
 
 COBSCOOK BAY, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 143.) 
 
 The appropriation of 1852 was expended in the removal of rocks obstructing navigation near 
 Fall's Island to the depth of mean low water, but was insufficient to complete the work, having 
 left several rocks whose removal was requisite to make navigation good. 
 
 PISCATAQUA EIVEE, MAINE. 
 
 (Page 146.) 
 
 The appropriation of 1828 was expended in removing obstructions in the Berwick branch of 
 the river. The nature and extent of the work done upon this improvement is not known. 
 
 LAKE WINIPISSIOGEE, NEW HAMPSHIEE. 
 
 (Page 173.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The depth at the outlet of the lake has been increased from 4 feet 
 to 8 feet by dredging. 
 
 The improvement has benefited three or four steamers employed mainly for summer travel. 
 
 This lake and its tributaries lie wholly in the State of New Hampshire, their waters forming the 
 chief source of the Merrimac Eiver. A dam built at its outlet forms a reservoir of these waters 
 which is under control of an incorporated company by which the water-power is regulated and 
 supplied to factories along the Merrimac River below.

 It does not form by itself, or by its connection with other waters, a continued highway over 
 which commerce is, or may be carried on with other States, and is, therefore, not navigable within 
 the legal definition of the word "navigable," as defined by the Supreme Court of the United States.

 ties July 1, 1882 3,266 05 
 
 LAMPREY RIVER, NEW HAMPSHIRE. 
 
 (Page 172.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. By dredging and the removal of rocks and ledges, access to the 
 wharves at New Market have been much improved, and the considerable business of the place 
 facilitated and increased. Still greater benefits are anticipated from the completion of the improve- 
 ment so as to give a depth of 11J feet at high water, an increase of 7 feet over the shoalest part 
 before improvement.

 EXETER RIVER, NEW HAMPSHIRE. 
 
 (Page 172.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The work projected for the improvement of this river has been 
 completed. 
 
 The facilities for navigation have been much increased by the increased depth and direct 
 channel gained in the river from 7J to 10 feet in depth. 
 
 The manufacturing towns of South New Market and Exeter have been much benefited.- 
 
 COCHECO RIVER, NEW HAMPSHIRE.

 Present improvement begun with appropriation of 1871. 
 
 By the removal of ledges, bowlders, &c., a depth of 4 feet at mean low water has been obtained 
 where there was scarcely over 1 foot. 
 
 This improved access to the wharves at Dover has given a great impetus to business, which 
 the completion of the channel, for which provision is made in act of August 2, 1882, will still 
 further aid.

 PORTSMOUTH HARBOR, NEW HAMPSHIRE. 
 
 (Page 173.) 
 
 An appropriation was made for this harbor and other purposes in 1822, which was in part 
 expended in the erection of a pier on "Sunken Ledge." The present work was begun with the 
 appropriation of 1879. 
 
 This is the only outlet of the navigable rivers along the coast of New Hampshire. The 
 United States navy-yard at Kittery, Me., is also situated here. 
 
 The accessibility and depth of water of this harbor give to it a special value, the only diffi- 
 culty to its navigation and safety being caused by sunken ledges and by its tidal currents, which 
 tend to force vessels upon dangerous projecting points and from which numerous serious accidents 
 have occurred and are still liable to occur to United States vessels and others frequenting the harbor. 
 
 The improvements projected and in progress will be of very decided benefit to commerce, 
 and are enhanced by the great value of the harbor as a naval station.

6 APPROPRIATIONS AND EXPENDITURES FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS. 
 
 MERRIMAC RIVER, MASSACHUSETTS. 
 
 (Page 154.) 
 
 The appropriations from 1828 to 1834, inclusive, were expended in the harbor of Newbury- 
 port on a breakwater at the mouth of the river. 
 
 The present improvement of the river was begun with the appropriation of 1870. Before 
 improvement the channel of the river was narrow, crooked, and obstructed by bowlders, shoals, 
 and ledges. A draft of 9 feet at mean low water, or 16J feet at mean high water, can now be 
 carried 7 miles above Newburyport; 12 feet at high water for 7 miles further to Haverhill, and 10 
 feet thence to the Mitchell's Falls ; and at low stages 4 feet can be carried through the falls as far 
 as Lawrence, 6 miles. 
 
 Seven incorporated cities and the largest mills in New England are benefited by this 
 improvement.

 The appropriations from 1828 to 1834, inclusive, were expended in removing sand bars and 
 building, and repairs of a breakwater. Those from 1870 to 1880 in the removal of rocks and other 
 obstructions to navigation. The depth at low water over the bar was 7 feet. 
 
 The present improvement was begun in 1881, and is intended to create a permanent channel 
 at the outer bar of not less than 17 feet at mean low or 24 feet at mean high water, by' means of 
 jetties. The depth of the bar has already Tjeeu increased to 9J feet at mean low water by the 
 partial construction of one of the jetties. 
 
 This improvement, in connection with that of Merrimac River, is in the interest of the largest 
 manufactories in New England.

 (Page 156.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1873. Before improvement an average depth of I foot only could be car- 
 ried at mean low water to the wharves at the mouth of South River. There is now a channel 300 
 feet wide and 8 feet deep at mean low water, or 17 feet at high water. The benefit to commerce 
 is the increase of the navigable capacity of the harbor. 
 
 SANDY BAY, MASSACHUSETTS. 
 (Page 157.) 
 
 The appropriations of 1836, 1837, and 1838 were applied to the construction of a breakwater 
 800 feet long, extending eastwardly from the western points of the harbor, to protect it from north- 
 erly winds. The work was reported as not only of great advantage to the inhabitants of Sandy 
 Bay (now Rockport), but also a harbor of refuge for coasters, being accessible at all times of tide. 
 
 GLOUCESTER HARBOR, MASSACHUSETTS. 
 
 (Page 153.) 
 
 The appropriation of 1872 was expended in the removal of rocks and ledges in the inner 
 harbor, by which the movement of vessels to and from the wharves and anchorages have been 
 much facilitated, with benefit to the commerce of the place. The annual value of produce of the 
 fisheries is over $3,000,000. This also is an important harbor of refuge for fishermen.

 The greater part of the sums appropriated and allotted for this harbor since 1828 has been 
 successfully expended for its preservation rather than for the increase of its navigable capacity, 
 but at the same time the depth of water, from the entrance of the harbor to the wharves at Boston, 
 has been increased from 18 to 23 feet at mean low water, with a least width of 600 feet. The 
 depths in several channels tributary to the harbor have also been proportionally increased. 
 
 The preservation of headlands and islands has secured shelter to roadsteads and protected 
 the channels against encroachments.

 The object of this improvement, begun in 1881, is to make a harbor of refuge for vessels in 
 easterly storms. The design is to build two breakwaters from the projecting points at the entrance 
 to this harbor and to dredge the space within, as well as the channel of entrance, to from 10 to 15 
 feet at mean low water, the rise of tide being 9 feet. 
 
 This harbor, when completed, must prove of undoubted benefit to vessels of all classes 
 trading to Boston.

 Appropriations for this harbor were made at intervale between the years 1824 and 1838, and one 
 also in 1852. These were all expended for the protection and preservation of the beach upon which 
 the harbor depends for its only shelter in easterly storms. 
 
 The appropriations since 1866 have been expended in repairs to the works previously con- 
 structed and in their completion on a more permanent plan, and also in the completion of a channel 
 100 feet wide and 8 feet deep to the wharves of Plymouth.

 An appropriation was made in 1827 for a survey here. The appropriations of 1836 and 1838 
 were applied to the construction of a breakwater for the shelter of vessels in stress of weather 
 passing from Vineyard Sound to New York. The breakwater was never finished, and has suffered 
 from want of means for its preservation. 
 
 PAWTUCKET RIVER, RHODE ISLAND.

 The first appropriation of 1852 was applied to the removal of a shoal at the junction of See- 
 konk and Providence rivers, upon which there was an available depth of only 4 feet at low water. 
 The appropriation of 1870, and subsequent ones to date, have been expended in the gradual 
 increase of the depth and width of the channel of approach to Providence, so that it can now be 
 reached at high tide by vessels drawing 25 feet. 
 
 There was a balance remaining on hand of $128,464 on July 1, 1882, which will be expended 
 towards deepening the channel to 25 feet at low water. 
 
 The benefit to commerce has been an increase of the annual tonnage to and from the port to 
 about 4,000,000 tons.

 necticut. The least depth before improvement was 2 feet at low water. The reduction of freight 
 from New York to the above important manufacturing towns is said to have been by reason of this 
 improvement from 25 to 75 cents per ton.

 Pawcatuck Eiver can only be approached through this bay. Its improvement, begun in 1878, 
 has so far resulted in a channel 7 feet deep at mean low water, where the depth was but 4J feet 
 at low water, and is of importance to the manufacturing towns on the Pawcatuck, and to Watch 
 Hill, a place of summer resort.

 of the river, but owing to want of appropriation from that date to 1870 no permanent benefit 
 resulted from the work. 
 
 With the appropriations since 1870 the results have been a steady improvement of the navi-

 In 1827, before improvement, the 12-foot navigable channel was narrow and did not extend to 
 the town wharves, and the harbor was completely exposed to southerly storms. 
 
 At present the 12-foot channel extends close to the wharves and is of sufficient width to be 
 readily used. The harbor is effectually sheltered from the southwest, and upon the completion of 
 the breakwater now under construction will be protected from the south and southeast. 
 
 This shelter has already proved of advantage to vessels.

 The navigation of this harbor, formerly known as Mill River, was almost impracticable, the 
 channel being nearly bare at low water. The appropriations of 1829 and 1832 were applied to the 
 construction of a breakwater and dike, and to the excavation of the channel. This work secured 
 a channel of moderate width and a depth of 2 feet at low water. The channel has since been 
 deepened to 4 feet and made 100 feet wide.

 First appropriation, 1882. This is a tidal inlet opening into a broad bay on the north shore 
 of Long Island Sound. The available depth at mean low water is 5 feet half way up the inlet, 
 but to the head of the harbor it is less than 1 foot. There are several rocks in and near the 
 channel which have been the cause of numerous wrecks. The improvement contemplates the 
 removal of the worst of these rocks, and dredging to 7 feet at low water half way up the inlet and 
 4 feet to the town. 
 
 This harbor is the port of a large and prosperous back country which would be much benefited

 The appropriation of 1875 was expended in dredging a mud-bank which had formed opposite

 appropriation of 1864. 
 
 In 1866, 7 feet could be carried at low water from New Baltimore to Albany, and from Albany 
 to Troy 7.2 feet. The channels, however, were very crooked in places, very narrow, and of such 
 difficult navigation that the grounding of boats was of ordinary occurrence.

 REMOVING OBSTRUCTIONS IN EAST RIVER AND AT HELL GATE, NEW YORK. 
 
 (Page 180.) 
 
 The original condition of the channel was the existence of many large and dangerous rocky 
 obstructions to navigation, having over them depths varying from 11 to 20 feet, and what added 
 considerably to the danger from these reefs was the bend at right angles of the river at Hell Gate. 
 
 The first appropriation was in 1852. The present improvement was begun with the appropri- 
 ation of 1868. The condition of the work at this time is the removal of Diamond, Coenties, Ways 
 Reef, and Shelldrake, to the depth of 26 feet at mean low water ; the breaking up of Heel Tap 
 Rock, the tunneling and explosion of Hallett's Point, and the removal of cUbris to the depth of 
 26 feet; the tunneling of Flood Rock to the extent of 20,236 linear feet, and the removal therefrom 
 of 72,116 cubic yards of stone, and 18,557 holes drilled for the final blast. The reef off the North 
 Brother has also been removed to 26 feet at mean low water. 
 
 The amount of commerce and navigation benefited by the completion of this work is estimated 
 at $4,000,000 daily.

 An allotment of $11,000 was made from the appropriation of 1874 for Hell Gate, which, added 
 to the appropriation of 1875, was expended in the removal of the reef lying off the foot of East 
 One hundred and twenty-fifth street, New York City, from a depth of 9 feet to that of 14J feet at 
 mean low water, thereby giving great relief to the large number of steamers plyiug between Harlem 
 and New York. 
 
 The object of the improvement to be made with the appropriation of 1878, and subsequent 
 ones, is to connect the Hudson River and the East River with a 15 foot channel. The surveys have 
 been completed and the lines of improvement mapped, but in consequence of the condition that 
 these appropriations are not available until the right of way is secured to the United States free 
 of cost, operations are deferred until this right of way is secured. The amount of commerce to be 
 benefited by this work will be very large.

 First appropriation, 1880. This channel in its original condition was obstructed by a large 
 shoal, with a least depth of 9 feet at mean low water, which lay in the direct track of navigation 
 and too near the wharves of Brooklyn for the safe passage of large vessels. The result of the 
 improvement as far as it has progressed has been the removal of a part of the shoal uext to the 
 Brooklyn piers for 2,400 feet in length and 250 feet in width, thereby giving great relief to vessels 
 going to the Brooklyn wharves. The amount of commerce benefited by the completion of this work

 NEW ROCHELLE HARBOR, NEW YORK. 
 
 (Page 180.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. The original condition of the channel was, that it was narrow and 
 interspersed with sunki-n reel's of rocks which made it dangerous for navigation. 
 
 The work, as far as it has progressed, has been the dredging of a channel 1,500 feet long, 100 
 feet wide, and 6 feet deep at mean low water, and the removal of a rock at the mouth of the 
 channel. No commerce directly benefited.

 First appropriation, 1872. Before improvement the channel was obstructed by two rocks, one 
 with a depth over it of 5.7 feet at low water, and the other slightly projecting above the level of 
 mean low water. 
 
 With the appropriation of 1872, this last rock has been removed to a depth of 9 feet at meaii

 RARITAN RIVER, NEW JERSEY. 
 (Page 175.) 
 
 The appropriations of 1836 and 1837 were expended in removing obstructions from the river 
 at New Brunswick. 
 
 At the commencement of operations in 1879, the condition of navigation in the lower part of 
 the river was a least depth of 6 to 7 feet at mean low water, and 7 to 8 feet at shoals as far up as 
 New Brunswick. 
 
 The result of the improvement so far has been that by the construction of dikes and dredg- 
 ing a channel 12 feet deep at mean low water has been obtained at "the Stakes," except for a short 
 distance where it has been dredged to 9 feet; the completion of a channel by dredging at "the 
 Middle Ground," 5,300 feet long, 130 feet wide, and 12 feet deep at mean low water, and a channel 
 1,000 feet long, 134 feet wide, and 12 feet deep made by blasting at " White Heads." 
 
 The appropriation of 1882 will be expended in continuation of the rock blasting at this last 
 point, and in dredging.

 The appropriations of 1871 and 1873 were expended in deepening the canal or cut into 
 Raritau River. 
 
 At the commencement of operations in 1881 there was a depth of only 3J feet at the canal 
 mouth, and a least depth of from 2 to 3 feet at men low water at various points up the river. 
 
 The available funds will be applied to diking and dredging in the canal and at its outlet 
 for the purpose of obtaining a depth of 8 feet at mean low water. Amount of commerce to be

 FLUSHING BAY, NEW YORK. 
 
 (Page 180.) 
 
 Work of improvement begun in 1880. A channel 80 feet wide, 6 feet deep at mean low water, 
 has been made from Long Island Sound into the creek at Flushing, with a branch channel of the 
 same width to a dock on the Newtown side of the bay. Before improvement the least depth in 
 channel was 3.9 feet at mean low water. 
 
 The work has been of special benefit to the town of Flushing and adjacent country. 
 
 The amount of commerce benefited by this improvement was estimated, in 1882, to be 
 $5,000,000 annually.

 (Page 188.) 
 
 The object of the appropriation of 1836 was to provide a breakwater at the quarantine grounds 
 to protect the public wharf and buildings from northeast gales. It was applied to building cut- 
 stone piers, the spaces between which were occupied by piles. The work was not for the benefit of 
 general commerce. 
 
 NEWAEK BAY, NEW JEESEY. 
 
 (Page 174.) 
 
 The project adopted for the application of the appropriation of 1852, was to open a channel 
 through the bar at the junction of the Passaic and Hackensack rivers, 100 feet in width, and of 
 such depth, not exceeding 11 feet, as the appropriation would secure. The funds were exhausted 
 before the work of obtaining a suitable channel was accomplished, and during the long interval 
 between this and the next appropriation iu 1872, the cut made was obliterated. 
 
 No material benefit to commerce resulted. 
 
 SHEEWSBUEY EIVEE, NEW JEESEY. 
 
 (Page 175.) 
 
 Work of improvement begun in 1871. Benefit to commerce has resulted from obtaining a 
 depth of 6 feet at mean low water from the month to head of navigation on the North Branch, 
 and for nearly the entire length of the main stem and South Branch, the depth before the 
 improvement being only about 3 feet.

 LITTLE EGG HARBOR, NEW JERSEY. 
 
 (Page 174.) 
 
 The appropriations of 1836 and 1838 were expended for the preservation of Tucker's Island 
 by the construction of jetties perpendicular to the shore, to arrest abrasion by the surf; these were 
 eventually carried away by storms. Upon inspection in 1853, it was concluded not to repair 
 them, as it was found that the abrasion they were designed to prevent had actually occurred with- 
 out injury to the harbor. The appropriation of 1852, made for repairs, was not expended, but cov- 
 ered into the Treasury. 
 
 RAHWAY RIVER, NEW JERSEY. 
 
 (Page 175.) 
 
 Work of improvement begun in 1879, and has resulted thus far in increasing the depth of 
 water for 5 miles (from the month of the river to near the head of navigation) from 4i feet at mean 
 high water, to 7 feet in a channel from 40 to 70 feet wide. 
 
 Commerce has been benefited by increased advantages for the shipment of coal, lumber, and 
 miscellaneous merchandise. The work being incomplete, the full advantage has not yet been shown.

 Before improvement the least depth at mean high water was less than 7 feet, with a narrow 
 and crooked channel. This has been increased to 9 feet, and the channel straightened for a dis- 
 tance of about 5,500 feet, with a reduction of nearly half the length of channel. 
 
 The advantages of this improvement have been mainly to the towns of East Chester and 
 Mount Vernon in affording increased facilities for transportation of coal, lumber, and general mer- 
 chandise. The work is incomplete.

 Improvement begun with the appropriation of 1873. 
 
 1. At Five-Mile Point. The navigable capacity of the river at this point was from 6 to 7 feet 
 before improvement. It is now 9 feet at mean low water by a straight and narrow channel past 
 this point. 
 
 The project contemplates widening the channel. 
 
 The improvement has benefited the up-river trade to Trenton and intermediate points. 
 
 2. Petty's Island Bar. The navigable capacity here before improvement was 14 feet at low 
 water. The present navigable capacity is 24 feet, in a low-water channel 225 feet wide.

 There is now a low-water channel 200 feet wide and 10 feet deep at low water. 
 
 4. Mifflin Bar (page 229). First appropriation 1836. The present improvement dates from 
 the appropriation of 1873. 
 
 /The navigable capacity across this bar when this improvement was begun was about 18 feet 
 at low water; during the last three years it has varied from 22 to 26 feet at low water. 
 
 5. Bulkhead Shoals (page 229). The navigable capacity before the improvement was begun 
 was about 21 feet at low water. About one-fourth of a low-water channel of 24 feet depth has 
 been dredged across these shoals to the depth of 22 feet. This channel is designed to be 900 feet 
 wide when finished. 
 
 The rapidly-increasing commerce of the city of Philadelphia calling constantly for larger 
 vessels of deeper draught and greater capacity, has been benefited to a marked degree by the 
 increase of a navigable capacity of the Delaware below Bridesburg.

 navigable capacity into Wilmington Harbor was a narrow, 12-foot channel at low water, to near 
 the Third Street bridge in Wilmington, with the exception of a shoal area of considerable extent 
 near the entrance. The project contemplated the creation of a 15-foot low-water channel. The

 NEW CASTLE HARBOR, DELAWARE. 
 
 (Page 128.) 
 
 The origin of this artificial harbor dates back to colonial times, and was suggested by the 
 necessity of^roviding a place of refuge for vessels during the prevalence of ice. The expendi- 
 tures by the General Government since 1826 have been for the preservation and extension of the 
 inclosed area. This harbor, since that at Reedy Island, 10 miles below, has become useless, is the 
 first reached by vessels coming from sea. During the existence of heavy ice in the Delaware it is 
 usually crowded with vessels, large steamers frequently availing themselves of its shelter. 
 
 SALEM RIVER, NEW JERSEY. 
 
 (Page 175.) 
 
 First appropriation, Ih71. The benefit to commerce from this improvement has resulted from

 There are fifty vessels of all classes with a tonnage of about 4,000 belonging to Salem ; but 
 the greater part of its trade, which is considerable, is in vessels belonging to other ports.

 (Page 126.) 
 
 This great artificial harbor of refuge was begun with an appropriation made in 1822. It has 
 for many years fulfilled, so far as its capacity has enabled it to do so, the design of its projectors; 
 but the growth of commerce, particularly during the last thirty years, has so far exceeded possible 
 anticipation as to practically exclude more than a fractional part from the intended shelter. Work 
 is now in progress under recent appropriations for closing the gap between the breakwater proper 
 and the ice breaker in order to furnish the larger sheltered area required and to prevent shoaling 
 in the harbor. 
 
 Between the dates of February 1, 1862, and July 3, 1879, 218,607 vessels anchored in the 
 harbor. In 1880 the number was 14,000.

 In 1852, before improvement, the least depth at low water was 6 feet. The channel has been 
 dredged several times since that date to 10 or 12 feet at low water, for temporary relief, with the 
 small appropriations occasionally made at the urgent request of the community interested in the 
 navigation. There has never been an appropriation large enough to justify even beginning a proper 
 improvement. The last one, of 1882, comes nearer to a sufficient sum. 
 
 The unsatisfactory results of former attempts at improvement have checked the development of 
 trade between this locality and others, especially Baltimore, which might be reasonably expected.

 MARYLAND. 
 
 (Pages 148,149.) 
 
 Before improvement, but 16 feet at mean low water could be carried to Baltimore. This 
 was increased to 24 feet in 1874, and is now being increased to 27 feet. In addition to the amount 
 appropriated by Congress for this improvement, the city of Baltimore and the State of Maryland, 
 chiefly the former, have contributed $584,000 to this work. 
 
 The improvement has given rise to great development of commerce, especially from its having 
 admitted the use of steamships of the largest size to European and coastwise ports.

 In 1836 there was an appropriation of $500 for a survey of this river, and in 1852, $45,000 for 
 the improvement of James and Appomattox rivers. This was chiefly expended in dredging in 
 co-operation with the authorities of Uichmoud. 
 
 The work of improvement since 1870 has resulted in increasing the depths over the shoalest 
 places from 7 feet at mean low water to 13J feet. The improvement is still incomplete. Its 
 benefit to commerce is much increased in the number and size of vessels trading to Eichmond, and 
 in the quantity and value of their freight.

 (Page 189.; 
 
 Appropriations were made at intervals between the years 1820 and 1854. 
 
 The present improvement dates from 1871, and has increased the depth of water from the 
 ocean to Wilmington from 7J feet at mean low water at the shoalest places to 11 feet. The rise 
 of tide being about 4.J feet, 14 feet can, at ordinary spring tides, be carried at high water from 
 Wilmington to Smithville, and 18 feet from thence to the sea. 
 
 The improvement is as yet incomplete, and has in view a depth of not less than 16 feet at low 
 water to Wilmington. 
 
 It has benefited commerce by much increase, observable in the number and size of vessels, 
 coastwise and foreign, trading to Wilmington; and in the quantity and value of their cargoes.

 An appropriation of $150,000 was made in 1833 to aid the citizens of Georgetown in removing 
 obstructions to navigation by enlarging and deepening the channel through the bar below the 
 town, and for the purchase and making free the bridge at Little Falls, and for other purposes. 
 This appropriation was expended by the corporation of Georgetown. 
 
 With the appropriation of 1870, and of subequent dates, the harbors of Washington and 
 Georgetown have had the depth of water increased from 7 feet before 1870 to a depth of from 14 to 
 16 feet, which depth has been maintained, and their commercial facilities proportionally increased.

 distance of about 25 miles, but the navigable capacity of this stream will not be increased until 
 the bars are removed.

 HAMPTON RIVER, VIRGINIA. 
 
 (Page 213.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1878. Before improvement the least depth upon the bar at the mouth o 
 the river was 4 feet. The expenditure resulted in securing a channel through this bar 150 feet 
 wide and 9 to 10 feet deep at low water. A jetty may possibly be needed to secure the perma- 
 nency of the channel. This river is the outlet of three counties. The number of arrivals and 
 departures of steam and sail vessels is given at 1,450 annually. 
 
 PAMUNKEY RIVER, VIRGINIA. 
 
 (Page 215.) 
 
 In 1880, before improvement, the river was obstructed by snags, logs, overhanging trees, and 
 wrecks. These have been removed for a distance of 20 miles, which has benefited the adjoining 
 section of the country, unusually rich in agricultural products.

 First appropriation, 1878. Channels have been dredged through bars in the river 150 feet and 
 100 feet in width, and 8 feet in depth at low water, where there was originally a depth of 4 to 5 
 feet, which has diminished the expense of lighterage and delays, and has been of much benefit to 
 navigation.

 With the appropriations mde from 1871 to 1875, such snags, rafts, and overhanging trees as 
 obstructed navigation were removed between Plymouth and Weldon. These obstructions have, 
 again accumulated as far up as the head of heavy-draught steamboat navigation, a distance of 65 
 miles, and seriously interfered with the trade on the river. The appropriation of August 2, 1882, 
 will be applied in part to the removal of these obstructions. 
 
 Value of imports from northern ports landed at Plymouth and other places on the river in 1879,

 DAN RIVER, VIRGINIA AND NORTH CAROLINA. 
 
 (Page 228.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. Navigation is obstructed by ledges of rock forming rapids, but with 
 navigable depths in the pools between. The work of improvement, as far as it has progressed, 
 has secured, by blasting, a depth of 2 feet at low water and 3 and 4 feet at ordinary stages, for a 
 distance of 4J miles above Danville, and will, whenever completed, open to navigation a section of 
 country rich in agricultural and mineral resources.

 First appropriation in 1879. The improvement, as far as it has progressed, extends a distance 
 of about 9i miles, with a depth of 2 to 3 feet at low water, where before the ruling depth was 
 about 1 foot. The length of river to be improved is about 31 miles. This will benefit trade by 
 enabling produce to reach a market by water which it would not pay to transport in- any other way.

 NORFOLK HARBOR, VIRGINIA. 
 
 (Page 214.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1876. This improvement is still in progress and incomplete. The work 
 done has been of material benefit to commerce, as deep-draught vessels are now enabled to come 
 up to the harbor and to the navy-yard at all stages of the tide. The depth on the bars in the 
 approach to the harbor has been increased from 17 and 18 feet to 25 feet at low water ; in the 
 inner harbor it has been increased from 16 to 22 feet in one portion, and in others to 25 feet at low 
 water, and additional facilities have been afforded for the loading of merchant ships. 
 
 The value of shipments from this port has increased from $7,825,112 in 1876 to $17,732,038

 DISMAL SWAMP CANAL, VIEGIN1A AND NOETH CAROLINA ("IMPROVING THE 
 NAVIGATION OF THE NATURAL CHANNELS AT THE NORTH AND SOUTH 
 ENTEANCES TO"). 
 
 (Page 229.) 
 
 Appropriations of 1836 and 1838. The shoals in Joyce's Creek, at the southern end of the 
 canal, were dredged, and the navigation of the creek improved by cut-offs. At the northern 
 entrance, an unsuccessful attempt having been made to secure a permanent channel of 10 feet 
 in Deep Creek by dredging, a plan was adopted, with the co-operation of the canal company, to 
 change the outlet of the canal to Elizabeth River by a cut of 2J miles, and the construction 
 of a new outlet lock. The new cut was opened at the expense of the company, but Congress 
 failed to make appropriation for the lock. At this time the United States held $150,000 of the 
 stock of the canal company. 
 
 The Dismal Swamp Canal is an important link in the inland navigation from Chesapeake Bay 
 to the sounds of North Carolina. 
 
 PAGAN CEEEK, VIRGINIA. 
 
 (Page 214.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The depth of water through four bars, between the mouth of the

 First appropriation, 1873. Before improvement but 4 feet could be carried over the bar at 
 the mouth of the western branch of the river at low water. There is now about 9 feet at the 
 same stage. Schooners load at Suffolk to 11J feet, and pass down the river at high tide and 
 out to the ocean. 
 
 The improvement has been of very great benefit to the navigation and to the commerce of the 
 adjacent country.

 ELIZABETH RIVER, VIRGINIA. 
 
 (Page 212.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1873. The expenditures here have been for the improvement of the 
 southern branch of the river, through which the entire traffic of the Albemarle and Chesapeake 
 Canal passes. The depth of water to the canal locks has been deepened from 5 feet to 7 feet, 
 and the channel of the river much straightened. 
 
 The commerce passing through the canal and river has very nearly doubled since the beginning 
 of the improvement in 1874. 
 
 BLACKWATER RIVEE, VIEGINIA. 
 
 (Page 212.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1878. Before improvement the ruling depth was 7 feet, with bends so 
 abrupt as to require warping around them. The river was also obstructed by snags and trees. 
 
 The river has been cleared, the bends straightened, and the water deepened to not less 
 than 9 feet. 
 
 The commerce of the river has largely increased since the improvement, and is still growing.

 the navigable depth to about 2 feet; 11 feet can now be carried as far up as the Seaboard and 
 Roanoke Railroad bridge. Logs and other obstructions were also removed from the river for 20 
 miles above this bridge. 
 
 The improvement has not led to the development of much trade on the river.

 First appropriation, 1879. The depth of water on this river before improvement was limited 
 in places to 6i feet, and bad bends existed. The least depth is now 9 feet, and the bends have been 
 made much easier, thus allowing much larger vessels to pass. 
 
 The returns of the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal, through which all vessels navigating 
 this river must pass to reach northern or southern ports, show an increase of 7 per cent, in the 
 number of vessels passing, and that the commerce of the river has been materially increased.

 Sound and across Coanjok Bay, and a dike constructed in this bay. The depth of water has been 
 increased from 7 to 9 feet over the greater portion of the dredged channel. Navigation has been 
 improved, and commerce has considerably increased, as is shown by the returns of the Albemarle 
 and Chesapeake Canal, which is the outlet for all vessels passing through Currituck Sound.

 First appropriation, 1878. The depth of water from the town of Edenton to the bay has been 
 increased by dredging from 6J to 9 feet, with material benefit to navigation. Since this work was 
 done a railroad has been built from Norfolk to this place, and its commerce has greatly increased. 
 
 PERQUIMANS RIVER, NORTH CAROLINA. 
 
 (Page 192.) 
 
 The removal of logs, stumps, &c., which obstructed the navigation of the stream at Hertford, 
 was accomplished with the appropriation of 1876. A channel 200 feet wide and 8 feet deep was 
 secured, so that steamers now pass without detention. 
 
 A large amount of timber is floated down the stream, and the usual yearly exports amount to 
 about 25,000 bushels corn and 1,500 bales of cotton.

 PAMPLICO AND TAR RIVERS, NORTH CAROLINA. 
 
 (Page 191.) 
 
 The appropriations of 1836 and 1838 were expended in dredging below the town of Washington 
 on Pamplico River. The present improvement was begun with the appropriation of 1876. 
 
 The navigation of the Pamplico has been increased from 7J feet, at high water, to 8J feet at 
 low water. On Tar River, boats drawing 3 feet can now reach Greenville at all times, where, 
 before, the navigation was confined to high stages of the river. 
 
 An increase of commerce has resulted from the improvement of each of these rivers. The 
 shipment of cotton has increased from 21,000 to 35,000 bales ; rice from 4,900 to 8,668 bags, and 
 lumber from 1,281,000 feet to 5,000,000 feet. The imports are said to have increased 33 per cent.

 taining the depth of water on the bar. The work has so far been successful and the channel 
 has remained in good condition. 
 
 The benefit to commerce expected from this improvement is the preservation of the deep-

 (Pages 189-191.) 
 
 Appropriations amounting to $55,000 were made in 1836, 1837 and 1838, under the above 
 heads jointly. They were expended with the view of making Beaufort the outlet of Pamplico 
 Sound to the sea, in the purchase of dredging plant, and in the excavation of a cut of considerable 
 size in Core Sound, as part of the proposed passage from Pamplico Sound. Nothing was expended 
 on New River, as the objects to be attained were not considered of sufficient importance to war- 
 rant the cost of improvement. 
 
 The work commenced in Core Sound resulted in no benefit to commerce, for want of appropri- 
 ations for its completion.

 The appropriation of 1882 not expended, it not being known to which line it was the intention 
 of Congress to apply it. 
 
 NEUSE RIVER, NORTH CAROLINA. 
 
 (Page 190.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1878. Before improvement the river was practically closed to navigation 
 above New Berne, and below that point an obstruction placed in the river during the war had only 
 a narrow passage through it. It is now open for navigation to boats drawing 3 feet, for 160 miles 
 during two-thirds of the year. 
 
 During the coming season it will be made navigable at all times to Kingston, 50 miles above 
 New Berne. 
 
 Before improvement but one steamer was running on the river. Now eight steamers run 
 regularly. The increase in produce passing is 400 to 500 per cent.

 First appropriation, 1879. Before improvement the river was only navigable about half-way 
 to Trenton, and the upper part of the stream entirely closed. 
 
 It is now passed over daily by steamers drawing over 3 feet, to Trenton, 43 miles. The lower 
 part of the river can be navigated at all times by vessels drawing 6 or 8 feet. 
 
 Three-fourths of the increase of the products carried on the river is due to the improvement, 
 independent of any natural increase of production.

 First appropriation, 1881. This stream was not navigable at all except by small flats during 
 freshets. Steamers drawing 3 feet are now passing over it continually for one-half or two-thirds 
 of the year, as far as the clearing of the stream has progressed, about 40 miles from its mouth. 
 
 The navigation of this and the Neuse and Trent is mainly carried on by the same boats, which 
 are transferred from one to another sis trade requires, with much benefit to commerce.

 YADKIN RIVER, NORTH CAROLINA. 
 
 (Page 192.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1879. Work upon this river has been carried up to a mill-dam, which pre- 
 vents further improvement until it is removed; but since no part of the appropriation can be 
 applied to the purchase of the right of way or paying damages, operations are deferred until special 
 provision is made for that purpose. 
 
 No commerce existed upon the river and none has been developed by the improvement thus 
 far made. 
 
 The Yadkin within the limits of North Carolina is entirely cut off by a narrow mountain defile 
 of 30 feet width, through which it descends in a torrent, 50 feet in 2 miles, and has HO navigable 
 connection with its lower part, known as the Great Pee Dee ; it becomes, therefore, a question

 CAPE FEAR RIVER, FROM WILMINGTON TO FAYETTEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA. 
 
 (Page 189.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. At ordinary and high stages the river is navigable by steamers 
 drawing 3 feet as far as Fayetteville; at very low stages not more than 8 inches exist on some 
 of the shoals. Expenditures for increasing the depth over the shoals have not yet been made, but 
 navigation has been made easier and safer by the removal of logs, trees, &c. 
 
 The right held by a company to take tolls or make charges for the navigation of the river has 
 been extinguished under authority of river and harbor act of March 3, 1881. Commerce has been 
 benefited by being relieved from tolls.

 LILLINGTON RIVER, NORTH CAROLINA. 
 
 (Page 190.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. Before improvement the stream, which is not less than 12 feet deep, 
 was not more than 40 to 45 feet wide in many places and very crooked. The completed improve- 
 ment will straighten and widen the river so that steamers 125 feet long will be enabled to reach 
 Lillington. 
 
 The benefit to commerce will be increased facilities and lower rates between Wilmington and 
 Lillington.

 First appropriation, 1881. Logs, trees, and sunken flat-boats have been removed from the 
 stream. Some dredging remains to be done on a shoal having but 14 feet at low water, and it is 
 expected to secure a depth of 4 feet with the present appropriation. No increase of commerce has 
 resulted and none is expected.

 First appropriation, 1880. The navigable depth of the river has not materially increased by 
 the improvement, but the navigation has been made easier and safer by the removal of wrecks, 
 logs, snags, and overhanging trees. 
 
 The value of the commerce of the river has increased since 1880 from about $2,750,000 to 
 about $4,500,000, partly due to the improvement and partly to the general development of that 
 section of country.

 NAG'S HEAD, NOETH CAEOLINA. EEOPENING A COMMUNICATION BETWEEN

 (Page 190.) 
 
 Fifty thousand dollars by act of August 30, 1852. Modified act of February 14, 1855. An 
 ineffectual attempt was made to secure an opening by dredging. The work was abandoned in 1859. 
 
 OCEACOKE INLET, NOETH CAEOLINA. 
 
 (Page 191.) 
 
 First appropriation in 1828. Vessels drawing 9 feet could, at that time, pass in from the ocean 
 at low water, but the channel inside was not practicable for vessels drawing more than 5 feet. 
 
 The appropriations made were applied until 1836 in deepening one of the channels from Pam- 
 lico Sound to. the inlet, during which time an increase of about 3J feet of depth was obtained with, 
 at first, great promise of permanence. In 1830, to prevent the formation of a shoal that had begun 
 to form at the outlet of the dredged channel, resort was had to a jetty for the concentration of the 
 current. This, when nearly completed, was materially injured by a violent storm in August, 1837. 
 
 The continued shoaling of the dredged channel and the destruction of this jetty eventually led 
 to the final abandonment of the work. 
 
 Between the years 1830 and 1835 the benefit to commerce was a material increase in the number 
 of vessels seeking this outlet from North Carolina ports to the sea.

 CHARLESTON HARBOR, SOUTH CAROLINA. ' 
 
 (Page 205.) 
 
 The first appropriation of 1852 was applied to improving the Beach Channel by dredging, but 
 no substantial results were obtained. The appropriations from 1871 to 1876 were expended for the 
 greater part in taking up at various points of the inner and outer harbor the wrecks of fourteen 
 iron-clad and wooden vessels sunk during the civil war. Their removal was of benefit to commerce. 
 In 1878 a plan was adopted for increasing the depth of water across the bar to 21 feet by means of 
 jetties, the greatest depth being about 11 feet. 
 
 No material benefit to commerce is expected until the two jetties shall have been further 
 extended and raised throughout their whole lengths.

 The small appropriation made in 1872 was applied to the removal of various kinds of obstruc- 
 tions placed in the channel during the civil war, by means of which the depth of 10 feet at low 
 water was restored to the channel, which had diminished by these obstructions ; and to that extent 
 commerce was benefited. 
 
 ASHLEY RIVER, SOUTH CAROLINA. 
 
 (Page 205.) 
 
 The appropriations of 1880 and 1881 were applied to dredging a channel of 11 feet depth at 
 mean low water for 10 miles above Charleston, where formerly only* 9 feet existed. 
 
 The improvement chiefly benefits the several phosphate companies located above the shoals 
 removed.

 Cooper River. 
 
 STONO RIVER, SOUTH CAROLINA. 
 
 (Page 206.) 
 
 The unexpended balance of the appropriation of 1871 for Town Creek was expended in removing 
 the wrecks of three vessels and a number of logs, sunk as obstructions during the civil war, and 
 restored the navigable capacity of the inland water communication among the sea islands between 
 Charleston and Port Royal, benefiting commerce to that extent. 
 
 WAPPOO CUT, SOUTH CAROLINA. 
 
 (Page 206.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. It connects Stono and Ashley rivers. Work is in progress. The 
 object of the improvement is making a straighter channel through Wappoo Cut of 6 feet depth 
 at mean low water. At present only 2 to 4 feet can be carried at that stage through the cut.

APPROPRIATIONS AND EXPENDITURES FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS. 45 
 
 BRUNSWICK HARBOR, GEORGIA. 
 
 (Page 133.) 
 
 The first appropriation of 1836 was " for the removal of the Brunswick Bar," and was so 
 expended. 
 
 In 1879, the date of the next appropriation, there was only 9 feet at low tide over the bar at 
 the entrance to the harbor. The improvement since commenced and still in progress had resulfed, 
 in June, 1882, in establishing a channel of from 40 to 50 feet in width, with a minimum depth of 
 about 13 feet at low water, and has benefited commerce by increasing the depth over the bar. 
 
 The present plan contemplates a depth of 15 feet at low tide over the bar.

 SAVANNAH RIVER AND HARBOR, GEORGIA. 
 
 (Page 134.) 
 
 The appropriations between 1826 and 1855, inclusive, were chiefly applied to the removal of 
 wrecks sunk in the channel-way of the river below Savannah during the Revolutionary war ; to 
 dredging shoals produced by them and at other points, and in constructing works designed to 
 throw a larger volume of water into "Front River." The result was an increase of depth at the 
 worst places of from 7 or 8 feet at low water to 10 feet, and an increase of the available high- 
 water depth, from Tybee Roads to the city, from about 14 to 16 or 17 feet. 
 
 The channel-way of the river below the city greatly deteriorated during the civil war, in con- 
 sequence of numerous and extensive obstructions placed in it. The first three appropriations 
 since 1872 were almost exclusively used in removing those portions of the obstructions most injuri- 
 ous to navigation, and to that extent commerce was benefited by the work. 
 
 The expenditures since 1874 have resulted in forming a practicable ship channel from Tybee 
 Roads to the city of Savannah, by which about 13 feet at low water and 19 feet at high water can 
 now be carried to the city. 
 
 Under the existing plan it is expected that at its completion, vessels drawing 22 feet will be 
 able to reach the city wharves.

 This constitutes part of the inland passage between Savannah and Jacksonville. A part oj 
 the appropriation of 1879 was expended in the removal of the wreck of a heavy timber dry -dock 
 sunk during the war to obstruct the channel. Its removal to a depth of 10 feet at low water 
 accommodates the kind of navigation using the inland passage and constitutes the benefit to 
 commerce.

 town, from 8 to 11 feet at mean low water, and lower down two bars were deepened from 11 to 14 
 feet and from 8 to 12 feet, respectively. 
 
 An active business of shipping lumber and timber is carried on here, which has been benefited 
 by the improvement.

 First appropriation, 1881. The work thus far done has been merely preparatory, and the 
 greater part of the expenditure for procuring a snag-boat. Commerce has as yet derived no benefit

 than half tide. 
 
 The appropriation of 1882 not being deemed sufficient, work has been postponed to await 
 further action of Congress, since the opening of only a part of the passage would be useless.

 (Page 131.) 
 
 The depth on the bar at the mouth of this river has generally been about 6 feet at low tide, 
 and the direction of the channel frequently changes under the influence of storms. 
 
 The first appropriation was made in 1852. The results of its expenditure were not permanent. 
 
 With the appropriations made from 1870 to 1878 dredging was done for temporary relief of 
 navigation; depths from 8 to 10 feet were attained at low water, so that vessels drawing 14 feet 
 could cross the bar; but these advantages could not be permanently secured. 
 
 Since December, 1880, operations have been carried on, designed, by means of two long jetties, 
 to establish and permanently maintain a mid-channel depth of 15 feet at mean low water on the bar. 
 
 The works have not yet sufficiently advanced to give the new channel the required direction 
 and depth.

 Operations now in progress are designed to create and maintain a ship-channel across the bar 
 of not less than 20 to 21 feet at mean low water.

 (Page 259.) 
 
 Appropriations were made at intervals between the years 1828 and 1838, and chiefly applied 
 to dredging in Amelia River and Sawpit Creek. On the reach between Fernandina and Nassau 
 Sound there has been maintained a least low-water depth of 4 feet, which improvement is ascribed 
 to the work done with these appropriations. 
 
 With the appropriations made since 1874 the worst shoals between Nassau Sound and Saint 
 John's River were improved by dredging from time to time ; but as there seems to be no prospect 
 of securing any permanent benefit to commerce from the occasional expenditure of small appropri- 
 ations, work has been discontinued since 1880.

 (Page 117.) 
 
 The first appropriation was in 1826, and those made at intervals between that date and 1852 
 were applied to dredging a channel through Choctaw Pass 200 feet wide and 10 feet deep, and in 
 the partial dredging of a channel through Dog River Bar to a depth of 10 feet. The original 
 depth was 5| feet at the " pass" and 8 feet at the " bar." From 1870 to 1875 the work accomplished 
 was a channel 300 feet wide and 13 feet deep through the pass, and one of the same depth and 
 200 feet wide through the bar. 
 
 With the appropriation of 1879, Congress sanctioned the work now in progress of dredging 
 the 13-foot channel to a depth of 17 feet, and extending it with a uniform width of 200 feet to the 
 17-foot curve in the lower bay, a distance of 26f miles. 
 
 The improvement as far as completed gives satisfactory evidence of permanence. 
 
 The benefit to commerce has been marked. In the fiscal year of 1881, value of exports to 
 foreign ports, $6,594,840; imports, foreign goods, $659,397.

 PENSACOLA HARBOR, FLORIDA. 
 
 (Page 131.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1878. The object of the improvement now in progress is the removal 
 of a bar that has formed across the main channel of entrance to the harbor and to prevent its 
 re-formation. 
 
 The work has not yet been carried sufficiently far to give much benefit to commerce, but it is 
 expected that it will, during the next summer, restore the original depth of 22J feet in the channel, 
 which has of late years considerably shoaled.

 FLINT RIVER, GEORGIA. 
 (Page 133.) 
 
 Improvement begun with the appropriation of 1878. Previous appropriations for the Chatta- 
 hoochee and Flint jointly were applied to the former only. Before improvement the river was not 
 navigable above Bainbridge, and only navigable for light-draught steamers at high stage from that 
 point 36 miles to its mouth. It is now navigable at ordinary low water to a point 24 miles above 
 Bainbridge, and on a slight rise safely navigable for 90 miles above Albany. 
 
 There has been a decided increase in transportation to and from points accessible to the river 
 since the improvement has been in progress.

 (Page 225.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1874. Before improvement the river was not navigable at low water. It 
 is now navigable at low water to Columbus for light-draught steamers. 
 
 The work has consisted in clearing the river its entire length each year of snags and over- 
 hanging trees, and in blasting rock shoals and deepening the channel by the use of wing-dams. 
 
 The improvement is not permanent, as there is an annual accumulation of snags and other 
 obstructions caused by the winter freshets. 
 
 There has been a large increase of commerce since the commencement of the improvement.

 First appropriation, 1880. The object of the improvement is to afford a channel of entrance 
 into the river from Suwauee Bay of navigable width and 5 feet deep at mean low water, and to 
 give a channel 50 feet wide and 4 feet deep as far up the river as Ellaville Railroad crossing, at 
 mouth of the Withlacoochee. Before improvement the channel across the bar was about 3 feet 
 deep, and the least depth up the river 1 feet. Expenditures so far have only accomplished a 
 channel of the required depth across the bar, and the improvement has not as yet afforded benefit 
 to commerce. Several million feet of pine, cypress, and cedar timber have been shipped annually, 
 and the quantity is increasing.

 Appropriations of 1832 and 1833 and for the Choctawhatchee and Holmes rivers in 1884, was 
 applied to clearing the rivers of snags and overhanging trees. The present improvement was 
 begun with the appropriation of 1874. The work done on this river from its mouth, 187J miles to 
 Geneva, Alabama, has opened navigation for steamers drawing 4 feet water to that point. The 
 improvement of the river above Geneva for high-water navigation has been carried up as far as 
 Clay Bank Creek, 60 miles. Before improvement navigation was by flat-boats only. Light- 
 draught steamers now ascend to Geneva the year round. A considerable reduction of freight on 
 cotton is reported as resulting from the improvement.

 Application of the appropriation of 1833 and 1836 unknown. 
 
 The present improvement was begun with the appropriation of 1880. The benefit resulting 
 to commerce has been the dredging of a channel over the bar at the mouth of the river from the 
 original depth of 1 foot 9 inches, to 5 feet at mean low water, 100 feet wide, greatly facilitating 
 the transport of the large amount of lumber which is annually shipped out of the river and con-

 (Page 261.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1872. Before improvement this portion of the Tombigbee was navigable 
 at low water only 95 miles of 366 miles of its length, and the Black Warrior was not navigable at 
 low water. The work has consisted in the removal of snags, logs, and overhanging trees, the 
 protection of banks against washing, and the improvement of the worst shoals by wing dams. 
 The improvement is not completed, but has been carried far enough to make navigation safe, to 
 enable boats to make quicker trips and during a lower stage of water than formerly, with an 
 increase of the length of the boating season. A small annual expenditure will be required to keep 
 the rivers in their improved condition. 
 
 During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1882, on the Warrior the average down freight of

 PASCAGOULA RIVER, MISSISSIPPI. 
 
 (Page 170.) 
 
 The appropriations of 1827 and 1828 were applied to deepening the channel at the mouth of 
 the river, but with no permanent result. In 1867-'70 a canal was cut across the bar by private 
 parties, under a charter from the State, and $5,000 were also expended from other sources. The 
 present improvement was begun with the appropriation of 1878, at which time but 3 feet water 
 could be carried into the river. The expenditures have resulted in deepening the channel of 
 entrance 7 feet at mean low water, and in improving the river for 50 miles above the mouth, by 
 the removal of snags and overhanging trees, &c., by which navigation is made safe, at any stage 
 of water, for small steamers. An annual expenditure will be required for maintenance. 
 
 Custom-house returns show a decided increase of trade since 1879.

 where the original depth was but 7 feet, and through a shell reef in Sabine Pass and through 
 another at Blue Buck Bar, near the junction of Sabine Pass with Sabine Lake. The channels 
 over the shell reef's have not refilled, but those over the outer bar did not prove self-maintaining, 
 and are now filled. 
 
 In 1882 a project was adopted for the construction of jetties by which it is expected to main- 
 tain a permanent 20 foot channel over the bar. 
 
 No benefit to commerce has resulted, as this new work has only been commenced. 
 
 The value of domestic exports passing out of Sabine Pass is estimated at about $1,505,000.

 SABINE RIVER, TEXAS. 
 
 (Page 210.) 
 
 In 1878, before improvement, the depth on the bar at the mouth of Sabine River was 3 feet. 
 It was dredged to 6 feet, and has now about 5 feet. By cut-off's and the removal of snags and 
 overhanging trees a marked improvement was made in the river during high stages. During low 
 water it is only navigable a short distance above Orange. No statistics are at hand to show that, 
 any increase of commerce on the river has resulted from this work. In 1856 the State of Texas 
 appropriated over $50,000, and in 1874 a large amount of State land, for the improvement of this 
 river. The river is not susceptible of permanent improvement.

 Before improvement, in 1878, the bar at the mouth of the river had a depth of 2J feet. It was 
 dredged to 5 feet, and has now about 4 feet depth. Logs, snags, &c., were removed as far up the 
 river as Bevilsport, the head of high-water navigation. It is not known that this improvement of 
 navigation has been of any benefit to commerce. This river is not susceptible of permanent

 GALVESTON HARBOR, TEXAS. 
 
 (Page 208.) 
 
 In 1870, before any expenditure was made for the improvement of this harbor, the inner and 
 outer bars limited the commerce of the port to vessels drawing not more than 11 feet. 
 
 The inner bar has been removed by the joint work of the city and the General Government to 
 a navigable depth of 20 feet. 
 
 The object of the improvement in progress on the outer bar, which dates from 1880, is the 
 contraction of the outlet so as to force the outflow into a narrow channel directed upon the bar to 
 effect its removal. 
 
 The work so far accomplished gives strong indications of a successful result. An increase of 
 2 feet in the depth across the bar has already resulted from the expenditures of the last three 
 years, and the saving to commerce in the item of lighterage alone has been estimated at $400,000, 
 at least, during the past year.

 First appropriation in 1872. This and the appropriations of 1874 and 1875 were expended in 
 making a channel through Redfish Bar. The present improvement was begun in 1878. An effort 
 is being made to secure a channel 12 feet deep, where but 8 feet formerly. existed, to Morgan's Cut, 
 a distance of about 30 miles. 
 
 It having become apparent during the progress of this improvement that the work could not 
 be made permanent within a reasonable cost, and that the cost of its maintenance would be 
 excessive, further expenditure upon it has been deferred to await the action of Congress thereon.

 Work was begun with the appropriation of 1878. But little money has been expended on 
 this river. The obstructions to navigation were snags below Liberty and a bar at the mouth. 
 Snags have been removed and the bar dredged. This bar will probably be dredged again with 
 the balance of funds ou hand. 
 
 The benefit to commerce is commensurate with the expenditure.

 This improvement was begun with the appropriation of 1880. In 1881 there were 5.6 feet on 
 the bar at mean low tide. There is now 8.5 feet, due to jetty now under construction, which as 
 yet is not more than half completed. 
 
 But little commerce has been benefited by the improvement so far. The improvement is in the 
 interest of the increasing sugar and cotton products of that vicinity.

 The first appropriation was made in 1876, but the work was deferred until a sufficient sum had 
 accumulated to warrant its commencement. The navigable channel over the bar of 8 feet has 
 remained unchanged, as but little progress has as yet been made in the improvement projected of 
 obtaining a 12-foot channel across the bar. 
 
 During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1882, 147 vessels, with a tonnage of 140,697, entered and

 The first appropriation was in 1879, at which time the bar had a depth of 5 to 5 feet only. 
 The project for the work contemplates a depth of 12 feet and the protection of the head of Mata- 
 gorda Island from abrasion. 
 
 The work of improvement as far as it has progressed has created a depth of 84 feet on the 
 bar, and a steady increase of depth is developing. 
 
 The benefit to commerce as reported by the collector of customs at Corpus Christi has been a 
 business during the year ending June 30, 1882, three times greater than in any previous year, due 
 to the improved condition of the channel over the bar.

 The appropriation of 1852 was applied to opening navigation in the region of the Colorado 
 Baft. Instead of removing the raft and opening the navigation of the main river, for which the 
 appropriation was inadequate, a lateral channel was opened through a series of lakes, which proved 
 entirely successful. 
 
 MOUTHS OF THE MISSISSIPPI. 
 
 (Page 237.) 
 
 Under the first appropriation for the improvement of the mouths of the Mississippi, in 1837, 
 the plan of dredging with buckets was adopted, and a powerful machine constructed and set to 
 work, but it was not fairly tested for want of furlher appropriation. 
 
 The next appropriation was in 1852, under which a contract was made for a channel through 
 the bar at Southwest Pass, 18 feet deep and 300 feet wide, by stirring up the bottom. No further 
 appropriation having been made until 1850, as a consequence the 18-foot channel, completed in 
 1853, filled up. 
 
 With the appropriation of 185G a jetty was built, by contract, about a mile long on the west- 
 ern side of the Southwest Pass, composed of a single row of pile planks, strengthened at intervals 
 by piles. Portions of this jetty having been carried away by storms, the contractors abandoned 
 their plan and were permitted to resort to the stirring-up method, by which they opened, in 
 1858, channels in the Southwest Pass and in Pass a 1'Outre 18 feet deep, which, as long as the 
 process continued, preserved this depth. 
 
 Further operations were interrupted by the civil war. 
 
 Appropriations, mnde between the years 1866 and 1878, were expended in constructing and 
 operating two dredge-boats, specially designed for deepening the bars by stirring. With these 
 two boats an average depth of about 18 feet was maintained, either in the Southwest Pass or in 
 Pass a I'Ontre, until 1878, when the improvement of South Pass by jetties having obtained a 
 depth of 18 feet, further operations of the dredge boat were discontinued. 
 
 The river and harbor act of March 3, 1875, contained provisions authorizing James B. Eads 
 and associates to build jetties and other works on the South Pass, with the view of obtaining and 
 maintaining deep water over the bar at the mouth of the Pass and through the Pass into the river. 
 The time of completion was limited, and payments were to be made upon the attainment of certain 
 specified depths and widths of channel, the ultimate object being to obtain a channel 30 feet in 
 depth and 300 feet in width. 
 
 For this work they were to receive $5,250,000; the final $1,000,000 not to be paid, however, 
 until the last mentioned channel had been maintained for ten years, when they were to receive 
 $500,000, the other $500,000 to be paid when the same channel had been maintained for ten 
 additional years. In addition to the above they were to be paid $100,000 per annum for main- 
 taining this channel, as well as interest at 5 per cent, on the final $1,000,000. 
 
 The construction of the jetties was commenced in 1875, and in 1879 a channel 26 feet deep 
 was obtained through the jetties and the Pass. 
 
 Congress, by acts of June 19, 1878, and March 3, 1879, amended the original act of March 3, 
 1875, so that the contractors were only to obtain a channel 26 feet deep and 200 feet wide at 
 bottom, and having through it a central depth of 30 feet "without regard 10 width." 
 
 The law in its present form is interpreted to mean that a channel 26 feet deep, 200 feet wide at 
 bottom, having a central depth of 30 feet without regard to width, must be maintained through 
 the jetties and into the Gulf; and a channel 26 feet in depth, of navigable width, must be main- 
 tained through the Pass from the jetties into the river proper.

 Thus far, since July 8, 1879, this channel has been maintained, except for seventy days in all.

 There has been no deficiency since September, 1882. 
 
 MISSISSIPPI RIVER FROM CAIRO TO THE PASSES. 
 
 (Page 237.) 
 
 MISSISSIPPI RIVER COMMISSION. 
 
 (Page 246.) 
 
 The plan of improvement adopted by the Commission consists essentially in seeking to increase 
 the navigable depths at low water by narrowing the width at that stage to about 3.000 feet, it being 
 found that where this width is exceeded bad navigation as a rule exists. To accomplish lliis'result, 
 recourse is had to light permeable structures erected in the river-bed and designed, by checking 
 the velocity of the current, to induce deposits of sediment on those portions of the bed which it is 
 proposed to reclaim from the river. By a continuance of this action, which merely imitates the 
 natural processes constantly at work, it is expected that these deposits will ultimate!; be raised to 
 the level of the normal banks. When this is done the river will have a nearly uniform width, and 
 the tendency which now exists to form shoals in the wide shores will be done away with. 
 
 The principle proposed of contracting the water-way to secure increased depth is in no sense 
 experimental, but has been successfully carried out on many streams in this country and abroad. 
 The special methods proposed have also passed beyond the experimental stage ; they have received 
 practical tests at various points on the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, and even the recent work 
 done by the Commission already shows their correctness. 
 
 HARBOR OF NEW ORLEANS. 
 
 (Page 237.) 
 
 This work was designed to protect the wharves and harbor of the city from the incursions of 
 the river. It was begun in 1878; the plan adopted was recommended by a Board of Engineers 
 convened at the request of the city authorities. Great delays during the prosecution of the work 
 was occasioned by the crowded state of the wharves at points where the work was being carried" 
 on, and numerous other causes incidental to new and experimental work. What was done failed 
 in its object, which led to its discontinuance in September, 1881. 
 
 The river and harbor act of 1882 provides for including this improvement in the general plan 
 under the Mississippi River Commission. 
 
 No benefit to commerce resulted from expenditures made. 
 
 MEMPHIS HARBOR, TENNESSEE. 
 (Page 237.) 
 
 Work has been going on at this point since 1878, the object being to stop the caving along the

 successful. 
 
 VICKSBTJRG HARBOR, MISSISSIPPI. 
 
 (Page 237.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1878. Originally work was entirely confined to holding of Delta Point by 
 revetment, the object being to prevent any further recession of the deep water of the river from 
 the harbor proper. The work has been in the main successful. 
 
 The work which is now being prosecuted under the Mississippi River Commission contemplates 
 the excavation of a basin in front of the town to be connected by an open cut with deep water 
 in the river. 
 
 NATCHEZ AND VIDALIA, MISSISSIPPI. 
 (Page 237.) 
 
 The main object of this improvement, which has been carried on since 1880, has been to arrest 
 the caving of banks in Giles and Marengo bends, which would ultimately allow the river to cut 
 through a narrow neck of land and destroy the landing at Natchez and Vidalia. These are the 
 two best harbors on the river below Cairo, and though no work is actually needed in the immedi- 
 ate vicinity, their existence depends upon the security of the work in the bends above. 
 
 PEARL RIVER FROM JACKSON TO CARTHAGE, MISSISSIPPI. 
 
 (Page 171.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1879. The river is much obstructed by logs, snags, drift, standing trees 
 in the water, and overhanging trees on the banks. The work in progress is for obtaining a navi- 
 gable channel of 5 feet at low water. It is not considered permanent, as the obstructions are 
 liable to re-form at any time. 
 
 The country tributary to this portion of the river produces a large amount of cotton, and the 
 opening of the river to navigation is of great importance to the inhabitants of its valley.

 First appropriation, 1880. The natural cbannel was mucb obstructed by snags, sunken logs, 
 rafts, standing trees in the water, and overhanging trees on the banks. The object of the improve- 
 ment is to obtain a channel of navigable width and 5 feet deep at low water for a distance of 315 
 miles to the mouth of the river. The river has been cleared by contract for 195 miles below Jack- 
 son, and the work is being continued by hired labor. The improvement is not permanent. A 
 snag-boat will probably be required for some period of each year to keep the channel clear. 
 
 Principal shipments on the river are cotton and lumber. 
 
 For a great part of its length it is the only means of communication. The benefit to commerce 
 from the improvement will be the reduction of the cost of freight.

 BAYOU TECHE, FEOM SAINT MAETINSVILLE TO POET BAEEE, LOUISIANA. 
 
 (Page 141.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The object of this improvement, which is in progress, is to secure a 
 low-water navigation by clearing the river of snags, logs, and impending trees, and the construction 
 of inexpensive needle dams and locks. 
 
 The benefit to commerce is important. More sugar is produced in the Teche country than in 
 any other equal area in the State. The commerce of the Teche is very large, as the entire supplies 
 of the best portion of Louisiana are received by this route.

 BAYOU BLACK, LOUISIANA. 
 
 (Page 140.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. Navigation from Morgan City, at the junction of Bayou Boeuf 
 and Berwick's Bay, is up the Boeuf S miles to the Chene, and down the Chene 2 miles to the 
 mouth of Bayou Black, thence 31 miles up to an old canal, now closed, half a mile long, cut 
 across to the town of Houma, in Bayou Terrebonne. 
 
 From Morgan City to the mouth of the Black there is a 10-foot navigation, with ample width. 
 The obstructions on the Black are, on the lower river, overhanging trees and logs, and on the 
 upper, willows, brush, and grass, nearly across the channel. The improvement in progress is to 
 obtain a channel 50 feet wide and 6 feet deep to Houma. 
 
 In 1880 the products on the Black were about 5,000 hogsheads of sugar, and large crops of 
 rice, corn, and potatoes; but the stream is of great importance as a natural link in the chain of 
 interior water-communication between New Orleans and Southwest Louisiana.

 BAYOU TERREBONNE, LOUISIANA. 
 
 (Page 141.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The improvement in progress is cutting overhanging trees for 20 
 miles below Houina, and dredging for about 5 miles, so as to obtain a depth of 4 feet at low water. 
 This is a tidal bayou ; this part of the stream serves for purposes of a highway, and is of great 
 importance, being connected with many other bayous, dependent upon it for a route to market, 
 roads on the bayou banks being useless for moving freight. 
 
 The commerce to be benefited includes the whole amount coming to Houma, which, in 1878-'79, 
 was 14,175 hogsheads sugar, 20,840 barrels molasses, with much rice and other produce; but sugar 
 plantations furnish the greater part of the freight.

 BAYOU COURTABLEAU, FROM PORT BARRE TO THE ATCHAFALAYA, LOUISIANA. 
 
 (Page 140.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. This stream, which forms a connection between the Teche and the 
 Atchafalaya, is obstructed by a bar near its mouth that frequently cuts off all communication with 
 this last stream. It is proposed to remove this bar by closing the principal running bayous and 
 forcing all the water through the mouth, and also to clear the snags and impending trees from 
 Port Barre down. The work is not quite completed. This is an important link in the water com- 
 munications of the interior of the State. About three steamers a week pass along the stream each 
 way throughout the year. The improvement is important, especially to the Teche country. The 
 amount of commerce to be benefited has not been reported to this office, but is large.

 BAYOU LA FOURCHE, LOUISIANA. 
 
 (Pago 141.) 
 
 First appropriation for survey 1852, for improvement 1878. The object of the improvement is 
 to afford low-water navigation to the lower bayou by removal of all obstructions, such as snags, 
 wrecks, and raft heaps, &c., with which the natural channel was obstructed from Donaldsonville 
 down. The work has reached as far as 24 miles below Lockport. 
 
 The navigation of the La Fourche derives its importance principally from the sugar and rice 
 plantations along its banks, the annual value of whose products is reported to be about $2,000,000. 
 These have to be carried by the bayou for market at New Orleans, either up to the Mississippi at 
 Donaldsonville or down to the Texas and Louisiana Railroad at Riceland, or to several canals lead- 
 ing to the Mississippi. 
 
 The benefit to commerce is the increase of facilities for transportation.

 CALCASIEU RIVER, FROM PHILLIP'S BLUFF TO ITS MOUTH, LOUISIANA. 
 
 (Page 141.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. The object of the improvement is to obtain a channel of navigable 
 width and depth from Phillip's Bluft' to the mouth of the river in Lake Charles, 56 miles. The 
 natural channel is much obstructed by snags, sunken logs, and overhanging trees. 
 
 The commerce to be benefited amounts to about 2,000 bales of cotton annually, which has now 
 to be transported overland to a railroad, and lumber. There are seven saw-mills near the mouth 
 of the river, producing about 2,800,000 feet per month, the greater part of which is shipped to 
 Galveston.

 CALCASIEU PASS, LOUISIANA. 
 
 (Page 141.) 
 
 First approriation, 1872. With this appropriation a cut was made across the bar at the foot 
 of the lake, 6,300 feet long, 60 feet wide, and 6J feet deep at mean low water. 
 
 When work was resumed with the appropriation of 1881 the cut was found to have filled to 
 some degree. It has since been lengthened, widened to 70 feet, and deepened to 8 feet at mean 
 low water. The work is not considered permanent, and the depth was made 8 feet to prolong its 
 usefulness. 
 
 The amount of commerce benefited is that of the trade of the river, which is reported to 
 have increased very much since the first improvement was made.

 RED RIVER, LOUISIANA, ARKANSAS, AND TEXAS. 
 
 (Pago 258.) 
 
 Appropriations for the improvement of the navigation of this river were made at intervals 
 between the years 1828 and 1841. There was then an interval of no appropriation between 1841 
 and 1852, and a longer interval of twenty years between 1852 and 1872. during which time the 
 results of work previously done were losjt. 
 
 The present improvement dates from 1872, and has been of great benefit to commerce. The 
 river was almost incapable of navigation above Shreveport on account of the great raft. This has 
 been removed and the river kept open by means of snag boats constantly on watch to remove 
 snags and accumulations which might give rise to another raft.

 First appropriation in 1873. The benefit to navigation by the improvement of this stream has 
 been marked. 
 
 The stream was obstructed by a large number of wrecks, which have been removed, and navi- 
 gation was limited by snags, leaning trees, and other obstacles common to all such streams. These 
 having also been removed, the capacity of the river for navigation has been greatly increased.

 First appropriation, 1880. 
 
 This stream was almost incapable of navigation before improvement. Since the work has 
 been in progress a fair capacity for navigation has been kept up. 
 
 The improvement has resulted in benefit to commerce by allowing the shipment of products 
 by the river, where, heretofore, a railroad had the monopoly. 
 
 It is as yet incomplete.

 Before the commencement of the work of improvement in 1881 the capacity of the river for 
 navigation was limited. A large number of obstructions have been removed, and so increased the 
 facilities of navigation that a steamboat is being built for use on the stream. 
 
 The benefit to commerce has been an increase of shipment of cotton from 3,500 to 12,000 bales, 
 which it is expected will be further increased upon the completion of the improvement.

 Allotment, 1870. First appropriation, 1871, for White, Black, and Little Red. The reach of 
 the river covered by the improvements already made extends from its month to Summer's Shoal, a 
 distance of about 500 miles. The work done consists of the removal of snags, logs, rock, and 
 overhanging trees, and the concentration of water over the shoals by means of dams and dikes 
 made of brush and gravel. Steamboats can now reach Summer's Shoal on a stage of water 3 feet 
 less than before the work was done. The improvement benefits the country bordering on the 
 river, which is almost wholly dependent on water transportation. Cotton is the staple product 
 and is yearly increasing. 
 
 In 1879-'80, 15,000 bales were carried by river from Batesville to Newport, Arkansas.

 A large number of snags, trees, and other obstructions have been removed from the river and 
 some brush and gravel dams built. 
 
 The river is now in a fair navigable condition, at low water, from Poplar Bluff, Missouri, to 
 30 miles below, and for a distance of 160 miles above Jacksonport, Arkansas. 
 
 Black River is a tributary of White River. From the Upper Black greafc quantities of staves 
 are taken for export to foreign countries, and from the Lower Black from 10,000 to 20,000 bales of 
 cotton are shipped to Memphis and other markets. Cotton shipments are expected to increase 
 with the improvement of the river.

 The river was cleared of obstructions from its mouth to Eawle's Hills, a distance of 29 miles. 
 The necessity for further improvement ceased with the making of a railroad connection with 
 points on the Ouachita Eiver in 1874. 
 
 PIEE IN THE MISSISSIPPI EIVEE, NEAE SAINT LOUIS, MISSOUEI. 
 
 (Page 236.) 
 
 The appropriations of 1836 and 1837 were applied to beginning a system of works, which, by 
 the assistance of the city of Saint Louis, finally resulted in closing the chute east of Bloody Island, 
 and confining the channel of the river to the Saint Louis shore, greatly to the benefit of the harbor. 
 
 The channel depth, in the portions of Saint Louis Harbor affected by this work, was increased 
 from 5 feet, in 1837, to now about 12 feet at the lowest stage.

 This improvement, made with allotments from the appropriations of 1872 and 1881 and 1882, 
 has resulted in deepening the channel of the river for general navigation, and in preserving the 
 harbor and extending the river front of Alton, and has been positively beneficial to the commerce 
 of the Mississippi.

 The appropriation of 1873 was applied to the harbor of Saint Louis and at Horsetail Bar 
 below. At Saint Louis, in continuation of the work begun, the results were beneficial to com- 
 merce. At Horsetail Bar the expenditures were productive of no useful result.

 The appropriations under this head, from 1874 and subsequently, were applied at first at 
 special points where the greatest obstructions to navigation existed, but are now devoted to the 
 interest of the general navigation of the river. 
 
 The works are in progress and incomplete. They have stopped the caving of banks and conse- 
 quent injury to navigation for a distance of 24 miles; have increased the channel depth to at least 
 8 feet from Saint Louis to 21 miles below, where formerly there were eight shoals having a depth 
 of but 3 to 4 feet at the lowest stage, and have doubled the navigable capacity of the part of the 
 river in which they are located, during the period of low water when navigation is obstructed.

 Appropriation of 1878 and additional allotments. 
 
 The work done here, in its present condition, has thrown the main steamboat channel into the 
 chute west of Arsenal Island, much to the benefit of the Saint Louis landing; has stopped, to a 
 large degree, the erosion of the Illinois shore; has deepened the channel from about 3 to about 10 feet 
 at the lowest stage, and has been of great benefit to commerce, both local and general. The river 
 and harbor act of August 2, 1882, provides that the unexpended sums heretofore appropriated for 
 an ice-harbor at Saint Louis shall be expended for the improvement of the channel opposite the 
 city by repairing and raising the present low dam at Cahokia Chute, and such other works as may 
 be deemed advisable. This work is in progress.

 (Page 249-250.) 
 
 Mississippi River. Work begun with the appropriation of 1824. The improvement consists 
 in the direct removal of dangerous obstructions to navigation. It cannot be considered as affect- 
 ing the navigable capacity of the river, as that would seem to refer more to the possible draught 
 of water available before and after improvement, but the ease and security afforded have been 
 very great whenever the work has been kept up. During those periods when the work has been 
 suspended or inadequately performed, owing to failure of appropriations or other causes, the 
 resulting accumulations of snags have been of great injury to the commerce of the river.

 IMPROVEMENT OF MISSOURI RIVER, BETWEEN SIOUX (JITY AND THE MOUTH. 
 
 (Pages 251, 252,253.) 
 
 The appropriations made since 1876 for special localities on the river have been expended for 
 the benefit of isolated points, and, being generally small, it became necessary to resort to temporary 
 devices and weak constructions, to the great detriment of economical work; and as no piece of 
 work could be properly finished, or any plan thoroughly carried out, the works put in have fre- 
 quently failed and required renewal, so that although the aggregate amount of money expended 
 has been considerable, yet the results have, in several instances, been unsatisfactory. Experience 
 has, however, fully demonstrated that the methods pursued are now no longer experimental. 
 
 The appropriation of 1882, being for the whole river, in one sum, inaugurates a thorough and 
 systematic improvement, and makes continuity of work possible.

 Work has been begun on that portion of the river lying between Charleston, Kans., and 
 Lexington, Mo., a distance of 180 miles, and embraces within its limits five of the localities where 
 work has heretofore been in progress, viz, Saint Joseph, Atchisou, Fort Leaven worth, Kansas 
 City, and Lexington. 
 
 It is proposed to complete the improvement of this portion as soon as possible, and then to 
 extend the work to other portions as rapidly as funds will permit.

 (Page 172.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. This work has consisted entirely in the removal of snags, which in 
 many places were so numerous as to render low-water navigation too hazardous to be attempted. 
 
 The removal of these local accumulations of obstructions has been of very marked benefit to 
 navigation. 
 
 This improvement affords cheap and convenient transportation for the products of a large 
 portion of Maries, Osage. and Gasconade counties, Missouri, and will make further development 
 of the country profitable. Wheat and corn are grown in large quantities. Iron ore and oak and

 Improvement begun in 1879. Before improvement, boats could only ascend, after August 1, 
 as far as Cow Island, about 150 miles below Fort Benton. 
 
 The benefits resulting from improvement, so far, are extension of period of navigation above 
 Cow Island, and greater number of boats and trips to Fort Benton, owing to increase of depth on 
 some of the shoals, and improved channels on the rapids. 
 
 The river and harbor act of August 2, 1882, changed this appropriation to improvement of

 The work so far carried out has been very successful. 
 
 In some. cases, by the removal of a single bar navigation has been opened up for 100 miles or 
 more; and at numerous points an increased depth of from 20 inches at low water to 4 and 6 feet

 Appropriation of $100,000 made in 1852. This was applied to removing rocks and bowlders 
 from the Des Moines Rapids, and afforded partial relief to navigation. Further appropriation 
 made in 1856. 
 
 DES MOINES RAPIDS CANAL. 
 
 (Page 234.) 
 
 The construction of the canal was begun iu 1867. The Des Moines Rapids, 11 miles in length, 
 consists of a succession of chains of rock which practically interrupted navigation for several 
 months in the year, necessitating expensive transfers or an entire abandonment of traffic. 
 
 There is now a canal around 8 miles of the rapids and an excavated channel through the 
 rocky chains for the remaining 3 miles. Before improvement less than 1 foot was found at several 
 points at low water. There is now a slackwater navigation affording 5 feet at low water, and a 
 channel of the same depth and 200 feet wide over the remaining 3 miles. 
 
 This improvement is of the greatest importance to the entire commerce of the Upper 
 Mississippi.

 OPERATING AND CARE OF DES MOINES RAPIDS CANAL. 
 
 The standing estimate for operating and care, including ordinary repairs, is $40,000 per annum. 
 The future expenses of the canal are provided for in the act of March 3, 1881, which authorizes 
 the Secretary of War to draw from the Treasury from time to time such amounts as may be needed. 
 
 MISSISSIPPI RIVER AT AND ABOVE ALEXANDRIA, MISSOURI.

 First appropriation, 1880. This improvement has resulted in the removal of a bar just below 
 the mouth of Des Moines River and increasing the depth from 30 inches to 6 feet at extreme low 
 water. 
 
 This benefits the entire commerce of the Upper Mississippi.

 (Page 235.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1879. The work accomplished hare is the removal of a bad bar obstruct- 
 ing navigation directly in front of Quincy. The depth on the bar has been increased from 3 to 6 
 feet, and benefits the entire commerce of the Upper Mississippi River.

 Selected us a favorable site for an ice or winter harbor for steamboats, &c. The depth of the 
 bay has been increased over a very large area from an average of 2 feet to 4 feet, but a compara- 
 tively small part of the work has been completed. 
 
 The work is of great importance to all craft seeking refuge in winter and for repairs, especially 
 to those navigating between Saint Louis and Keokuk, and also a safe place for the storage of 
 rafts of lumber iu winter.

74 APPROPRIATIONS AND EXPENDITURES FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS. 
 
 MISSISSIPPI RIVER AT HANNIBAL, MISSOURI. 
 
 (Page 235.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. Before improvement there was but one available steamboat land- 
 ing, almost impossible at low water. Nearly one-half mile of shore is now opened to the landing 
 of boats, &c. 
 
 Hannibal is a very important business point, and its trade is very large. 
 
 MISSISSIPPI RIVER AT LOUISIANA, MISSOURI. 
 
 (Page 2.35.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. The improvement has been the construction of a dike which diverts 
 the current to the Louisiana shore and prevents the threatened formation of bars in the main 
 channel in front of the town. The projected improvement is only partially finished. 
 
 The work is of importance to the entire commerce of the Upper Mississippi. 
 
 GALENA RIVER AND HARBOR, ILLINOIS. 
 
 (Pagei:?7.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1878. The work thus far accomplished has been dredging a cut from 80 
 to 100 feet wide from the mouth of the river to Galena, which has increased the channel depth 
 from 20 inches to 6 feet. The work is only of temporary benefit. Owing to the nature of the 
 material composing the bed of the stream, the channels made are soon greatly reduced in depth 
 or entirely obliterated. 
 
 The trade of Galena has greatly diminished of late years, owing to railroad developments, 
 and from the extensive cultivation of land adjoining the stream and washings from mines, the 
 river has gradually so filled with deposits that at low or even medium stages but little water can 
 be found in the channel. 
 
 CUIVRE RIVER, MISSOURI. 
 (Page 171.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The navigation of the river from the mouth to " Chain of Rocks," 
 about 16 miles, has been improved by an increase of about 4 feet in the depth. The approach to 
 the river is still obstructed, the improvement being incomplete. 
 
 This work is of but little importance to commerce.

 ICE-HARBOR AT DUBUQUE, IOWA. 
 
 (Page .) 
 
 First appropriation, 1882. The project adopted for a winter harbor at this place will create a 
 basin having an area of about 500,000 square feet and a depth of 6 feet at extreme low water. This 
 will create ample accommodation for all the steamboats, barges, and rafts at present likely to use 
 it. The work is now in progress.

 First appropriation, 1882. The project for this work provides for a dock near the middle lock 
 of the canal, 4(>0 feet long by 100 feet in width, with gates of 80 feet opening. 
 
 The work is now in progress and is intended for the benefit of commerce by affording facilities 
 for the repair of boats and barges engaged in the trade of the river, as well as those belonging to 
 the Government and in use in the prosecution of its improvement.

 FALLS OF SAINT ANTHONY, MINNESOTA. 
 
 (Page 231.) 
 
 The original object of the preservation of the Falls was to arrest the threatened destruction 
 of the navigation of the river above. The work was commenced with the appropriation of 1870, 
 but since 1878, owing to the construction of railroads, there has been no commerce on the river 
 from the Falls to Saint Cloud, 77 miles above; and the expenditures here have proved to be no 
 longer of importance to commerce.

 The object of this is to extend navigation from Saint Paul to the Falls of Saint Anthony. 
 
 The appropriation of March 3, 1873, being contingent upon the reliuquishment of a grant of 
 laud for the work made in 1868 by the United States to the State of Minnesota, which the State 
 has, so far, failed to make, the work has not been commenced.

 MISSISSIPPI EIVEE ABOVE THE FALLS OF SAINT ANTHONY. 
 
 (Page 231.) 
 
 The first appropriation was made in 1874, at which time there was about 1 feet on the worst 
 shoals at low water. On the improved shoals there is now a least depth of 3 feet at low water. 
 
 There is now no appreciable amount of commerce between Saint Cloud and the Falls to be 
 benefited by this improvement. Between Grand Eapids and Aitken, on the Northern Pacific 
 B^ailroad, navigation has been benefited sufficiently to admit of steamboat navigation at mean 
 low water. , 
 
 In 1882 the amount of commerce between these points was : in twenty-seven trips, by two 
 steamboats; freight carried, 2,026,000 pounds; passengers, 1,764.

 (Page 169.) 
 
 In 1867, at the time of the first appropriation, this river was much obstructed by snags, lean- 
 ing trees, bowlders, &c. A large number of these obstructions have been removed as far up the 
 river as Yellow Medicine, so as to admit the passage of light-draught steamers. From the nature 
 of the banks obstructions by snags and leaning trees are liable to be created anew after every flood. 
 
 But little benefit to commerce has resulted from the work done on this river, its navigation 
 having nearly ceased since the building of the Saint Paul and Sioux City Bailroad, in 1871.

 SAINT CEOIX EIVEE, BELOW TAYLOE'S FALLS, MINNESOTA AND WISCONSIN. 
 
 (Page 259.) 
 
 In 1878, before the work of improvement was be-gun, the depth at low water, upon the worst 
 shoals, was 12 inches, and generally in the river from 1J to 2 feet. The available depth is now 
 from 3 to 4 feet. 
 
 The work done, thus far, has been of the greatest benefit to the commerce of the river. 
 
 In 1881, there were on the river two steamboats for freight and passengers; thirty-five steam- 
 boats engaged in towing; freight carried, 33,823,802 pounds; passengers, 11,000; logs passed 
 through Saint Croix Boom, value, $2,563,000; logs and lumber rafted, 185,000,000 feet.

 CHIPPEWA RIVER, WISCONSIN. 
 
 (Page 217.) 
 
 In 1876, before improvement, the depth in the river at low water, upon the worst shoals, was 
 12 inches ; there is now a navigable channel of from 3J to 4 feet. The bar at the mouth of the river 
 is open to rafts of the largest dimensions, where formerly those drawing from 12 to 1C indies found 
 difficulty in passing. The work of improvement has been, thus far, confined to the portions of the 
 river below the entrance to Beef Slough. It is proposed to continue the improvement to Eau 
 Claire. 
 
 In 1881, three steamboats plied on the river. Freight carried, 1,966 tons; passengers carried, 
 16,989; value of logs and lumber run, $7,272,513.

 First appropriation, 1882. The same benefit to commerce is expected as from the improvement 
 of the channel of Chippewa River, of which this will form au important part by arresting the flow 
 of sand into the channel.

 The improvement of the river commenced with appropriation of 1876. The result of work to 
 date is a fair high-water channel from Abercrombie to Fargo, 76 miles, and a permanently im- 
 proved channel from Fargo to 75 miles below it; and 18 miles of river improved below Grand 
 Forks. Further improvement is in progress. 
 
 In 1882, four steamboats and twenty barges of 200 tons capacity were engaged in the carrying 
 trade. Wheat, merchandise, and lumber carried, 56,814,000 pounds. The shipments of grain to 
 Fargo and Moorhead by the river are stated to be thirty times greater than before improvement.

 The object of this work is to overcome the current and shoals of the rapids, so as to connect 
 the improvements already made and to be made upon the channels of the river above and below. 
 The work has not yet been begun ; $50,000 are now available for it. The estimate for completion 
 is $150,000. 
 
 These rapids, with a fall of 12 to 14 feet, stand as a dividing wall between the two halves of 
 this important grain-carrying stream, and the proposed improvement is an absolute necessity to 
 its rapidly increasing commerce.

 (Page 230.) 
 
 This work has so far been limited to the headwaters of the Mississippi proper and to the 
 commencement of a dam at Lake Winebigoshish and one at Leech Lake. 
 
 The reservoir system of the Upper Mississippi, above Saint Paul, contemplates the construc- 
 tion of seven reservoirs for the purpose of storing the surplus water of spring and early summer, 
 to be released during seasons of drought and low water. 
 
 When completed they are expected to prove of benefit to the navigation of the Mississippi 
 as far down as Lake Pepin, by increasing the flow of water when the river is at a low stage.

 with about 15 inches water over them. There are now from 2 to 3 feet at low water as far as Knox- 
 ville, and the work is not completed. The advantage to commerce is a straightened channel, with 
 obstructions removed and banks riprapped where necessary.

 Below Chattanooga. The State of Alabama began the construction of a canal around Big 
 Muscle Shoals in 1831. In 1836 the canal was opened, the work having been done with pro- 
 ceeds of public lands donated by Congress. The present improvement was begun with an allot- 
 ment from the appropriation of 1868, at which time the canal was in a dilapidated condition, and 
 had been for several years unused. The. original coudition of the river was, to Brown's Ferry (160 
 miles), about 3 feet water for nine months of the year; thence to Florence (Muscle Shoals obstruc- 
 tions), 38 miles, not navigable. From Florence to mouth of the river 10 to 20 inches over numer- 
 ous shoals with navigable pools between them. 
 
 The present condition of the river is as follows: From Chattanooga to Brown's Ferry rock 
 reefs reduced, snags and bowlders removed, projected work incomplete. From Brown's Ferry to 
 Florence, two locks of canal at Elk River Shoals well advanced; at Muscle Shoals, seven locks 
 and masonry aqueduct finished, remaining two locks to be finished during the present summer of 
 1883. Lock gates in preparation at Little Muscle Shoals. A 3-foot channel is now navigable from 
 the shoals to Florence. From Florence to mouth of the river, the river has been cleared and a 
 few additional inches of depth secured at Colbert. Shoals and other points. 
 
 The benefit to commerce is the securing of a safe through navigation, with increased depth of 
 water at many points. The work done is of a permanent nature, but not entirely completed.

 First appropriation, 1876. Work was done upon the river by the State some forty years ago, 
 but was not of permanent advantage. In its original condition the stream had from a few inches 
 to 2 feet over numerous shoals at low water. 
 
 The depth has been increased at the most serious obstructions, and is now from 6 inches to 2 
 feet. The improvement is still incomplete.

 shoals, and no low-water navigation. The rock reefs have been reduced and the channel, cleared 
 of snag, overhanging trees, &c., is now passable at a stage of water varying from 2 to 4 feet lower 
 than before improvement. The work is of a permanent nature. Benefit to commerce is the 
 lengthening of season of safe navigation, with increasing freightage by flat-boats principally, 
 numerous rafts passing safely. The work is incomplete.

 (Page 207.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1876. The work done by the State some fifty years ago gave but little 
 permanent benefit to navigation. Before improvement, navigation was obstructed by reefs, rocky 
 projecting points, and gravel bars, &c., with only 6 to 8 inches at low water. There is now a cleared 
 channel of 22 to 36 inches at low water. The benefit to commerce is the securing safe navigation 
 with increased depth, which has much increased the freightage of cotton and cereals. The improve- 
 ment made is practically permanent.

 o. Below Nashville. The greater part of the appropriations made between 1832 and 1839 was 
 expended below Nashville in the construction of wing-dams, dikes, and jetties at nine different 
 points, and in the removal of snags, rocks, and overhanging trees. Some dams were also built 
 by the State of Kentucky. Work was resumed with the appropriation of 1871. Before improve- 
 ment there was an average depth at shoals of about 14 inches at low water. The work done has

 resulted in a lengthened season of safe navigation for steamers drawing from 3J to 4 feet, making 
 more trips with less difficulty and in less time than before improvement, and making it practi- 
 cable to run light-draught boats during the low-water season. 
 
 b. Above Nashville. Part of the appropriations made between 1832 and 1839 was expended in 
 removing rocks, logs, snags, &c., from the bed of the river, and cutting trees standing on its banks 
 and overhanging its channels. 
 
 The work of improvement was resumed with the appropriation of 1876, and has resulted in a 
 cleared channel, having an increased depth of from 6 to 8 inches at the principal obstructions, by 
 which the season of navigation is lengthened. Larger boats are now making regular trips to 
 Point Burnside than were used before the improvement. The work is not completed. 
 
 c. At Smith's Shoals, Kentucky, four rapids formed a positive barrier to up-stream and a 
 serious obstruction to down-stream navigation. The channel has been narrowed and deepened 
 by means of wing-dams and a rock excavation, facilitating the safe passage of rafts and coal-boats. 
 The improvement is practically complete and permanent. 
 
 The channel between Smith's Shoals and the falls of the Cumberland has been benefited by 
 the removal of some immense bowlders and many snags, thus assisting the safe passage of boats, 
 &c., running out of the Rock Castle and Laurel rivers. 
 
 d. Above the mouth of Jellico River. The channel has been improved by removing snags, 
 bowlders, &c.; but this was limited to the sections of the river between mill-dams (nine in num- 
 ber), which formed the principal obstructions.

 CANEY FORK RIVER, TENNESSEE. 
 
 (Page 206.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. Before improvement there was about 3 feet 5 inches at the numer- 
 ous shoals at a 3-foot stage of water, and many snags, gravel bars, and overhanging trees. There 
 is now an additional depth of about 7 inches, and snags, loose rock, and overhanging trees have 
 been removed. The work is not completed. The benefit to commerce is a safe channel from Sligo, 
 the head of navigation, to the mouth of the river; with increased freight steamboats of 250 tons 
 can now reach Sligo at a 3-foot stage.

 First appropriation, 1880. The channel was obstructed by gravel reefs, loose rock, snags, 
 togs, and overhanging trees, with about 3 feet 6 iuches water on slioals at a 3-foot stage. It has 
 been cleared and the gravel bars and reefs have been reduced with a gain of about 6 inches of

 bridge. The depth of water was absut 10 inches at the shoals. By the work done there has been 
 a gain of 4 inches of water and the channel has been cleared of .surface obstructions. This secures 
 a safe passage to rafts and flat-boats, but the improvement does not appear to have been utilized

 GOOSA RIVER, GEORGIA AND ALABAMA. 
 
 (Page 226.) 
 
 In 1823 action was taken by the State of Alabama to improve the navigation of the Coosa, 
 and the act of Congress of May 23, 1828, appropriated certain surplus of grants of laud for the 
 same object. Not much work was done, if any, under either. The present improvement was 
 begun with the appropriation of 1876, at which time the river was navigable for boats drawing 2 
 feet, from Rome, Ga., to Greenport, Ala., 164 miles, excepting at very low water, when there was 
 but 14 to 18 iuches at several shoals. At Greeuport five formidable reefs, and also at other 
 points, obstructed navigation. By the improvement, as far as it has progressed, reefs have been 
 reduced, bars, &c., removed, and the channel widened where required; a new, straight, wider and 
 deeper channel made through the Greenport Keefs. Work on the Upper Coosa has resulted 
 in a gain of about 8 inches of water. Two masonry locks are finished, and the stone for the third 
 quarried and cut at the canal projected around the Ten Island Shoal obstruction. 
 
 The benefit to commerce is a safe, navigable channel from Rome to Greeuport throughout the 
 year for boats drawing 2 feet at extreme low water. Good progress toward opening the canal 
 and an improved channel to the Alabama coal-fields.

 First appropriation, 1874. The channel was greatly obstructed by gravel bars, ledges, loose 
 rock, trees, &c., with a varying depth at low water of 15 inches to 3 feet. The channel obstruc- 
 tions have been removed, and wing-dams built to contract and deepen the channel, resulting in a 
 safe navigable channel of 3 feet depth, for nine months in the year, below Calhoun, Ga. There 
 appears to be no commercial necessity for any further expenditure.

 First appropriation, 1875. Before the improvement there were surface obstructions and num- 
 erous shoals, with the water varying from a few inches to 3 feet during the low-water season. A 
 good channel has been secured having 2 feet of water during nine months of the year. The work 
 contemplated has been completed, and there appears to be no commercial necessity for any further

 But one appropriation has been made for this stream, that of August 14, 1876. No work has 
 been done except that pertaining to a survey. Nothing can be done without recourse to locks and 
 dams at a cost of over $2,000,000, without any corresponding advantages. Congress, by act of 
 August 2, 1882, transferred $8,700 of the unexpended funds to the Coosa Biver improvement.

 This stream with the Oconee forms the Altamaha, and the three were formerly the only avenues 
 of commerce for Central Georgia, and now furnish a natural outlet for the lumber, cotton, and 
 other products. of that region. Many years ago the State made several appropriations for its im- 
 provement, amounting to at least $60,000. An examination of the river was authorized by Con- 
 gress in 1852. The present improvement was begun with the appropriation of 1876. at which time 
 the river was so filled, at points, with snags and sunken logs as to appear as immense rafts, with 
 numerous sand-bars, surface obstructions, &c., and a varying depth of 22 inches to 4 feet at low 
 water. The snags have been removed, the river cleared, and several abrupt bends straightened. 
 Work is still in progress and has thus far resulted in a clear channel, with not less than 3 feet at 
 low water between Hawkinsville and the mouth of the river, by which the navigation by steam- 
 boats and rafts has been much benefited. The nature of the work is such that a small force will 
 be required from time to time to remove obstructions that may develop in the future.

 The State of Georgia appropriated during the first quarter of this century over $35,000 for 
 this river. The present improvement was begun with the appropriation of 1878. The river was 
 obstructed by abrupt bends, snags, &c., and rocky ledges and reefs, with from 18 inches to 2J feet 
 at low water at the shoalest places. 
 
 There is now an improved channel from Dublin to the mouth of the river, with an increased 
 depth of water of nearly 3 feet at low water. The work is not completed. An annual expendi- 
 ture will be necessary to keep the channel clear, on account of the river changing its bed at many 
 points.

 OHIO RIVER. 
 
 (Page -225.) 
 
 The navigation of the Ohio has been greatly improved; but there being no fixed low- water 
 line, its navigable capacity, before and after improvement, cannot be stated. 
 
 The depths in the river being dependent upon rainfall, there will always be, in years of little 
 rain, little or no navigation, as iu 1881. for instance, no matter how thoroughly the river may 
 have been improved. 
 
 IMPROVEMENT OF THE FALLS OF THE OHIO RIVER. 
 
 (Page -254.) 
 
 Previous to February 26, 1872, when the improvement of the Falls of the Ohio River first 
 became of any practical benefit to commerce, the natural channel-way at this point was by means 
 of three chutes over the falls. The main chute (Indiana Chute) was navigable for descending 
 boats from three to five months, and for ascending boats about one or one and one-half months 
 in the year. 
 
 A canal, built by private parties, around the falls on the Kentucky side, called the Louisville 
 and Portland Canal, which was open to commerce in 1830, permitted the passage of vessels not 
 exceeding 185 feet in length, and 50 feet iu breadth, and was therefore only available for the 
 smaller class of vessels which were then navigating the rivers of the Mississippi Basin. 
 
 The project for this improvement was adopted in 1868, and its object was to deepen, widen, 
 and enlarge the Louisville and Portland ('anal, to complete the new locks and branch leading to 
 them (which work had been began in 1860 by the Louisville and Portland Canal Company, and 
 stopped for want of funds in 1866). Since then the project has been extended, by the action of 
 Congress, so as to include the improvement of the Indiana Chute. 
 
 Ever since February 26, 1872, the improvements made here have permitted the passage of 
 boats through the canal, not exceeding 335 feet in length and 80 feet iu width. 
 
 During the year ending June 30, 1882, $34,118.60 have been expended upon Indiana Chute. 
 The advantage iu this has been to bring the natural main navigable channel over the falls into a 
 better condition. All the work done in this direction will relieve the artificial channel, or 
 Louisville and Portland Canal, iu periods when commerce is crowded at that point. 
 
 During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1882, the faJls were navigable for ascending and 
 descending boats one hundred and fifteen days, and for descending boats only, one hundred and 
 twenty-seven days ; 2,543 vessels, with a registered under-tonnage of 758,871 tons, passed over 
 them. These carried, in addition to general merchandise, 18,545,000 bushels of coal and 18,600 
 tons of iron ore.

 OPERATING AND MAINTAINING THE LOUISVILLE AND PORTLAND CANAL. 
 
 (Page 254.) 
 
 The fiscal year ending June 30, 1882, was remarkable for the number and duration of the high 
 stages of the river. The average annual period during which the canal was required by the com- 
 merce of the Ohio River during the previous seven years was about three hundred and twenty 
 days. During that year it was required only two hundred and fifty days, and was closed one hun- 
 dred and fifteen days on account of high water only. 
 
 Three thousand nine hundred and sixty-four vessels passed through the canal, whose regis- 
 tered under-tonuage amounted to 904,343 tons. In addition to the general merchandise which 
 they transported, 11,348,000 bushels of coal, 25,800 tons of iron ore, and 58,850 barrels of salt 
 were carried by them. 
 
 The act of March 3, 1881, authorizes the Secretary of War to draw his requisition on the 
 Secretary of the Treasury, from time to time, for the purpose of operating and keeping the 
 canal in repair. 
 
 The total expenditures for the year ending June 30, 1883, were $61,333.14, of which sum, 
 $4,000.91 was for repairing damages caused by the great flood of February, 1883, and $2,692.18 
 was for permanent improvements. 
 
 ALLEGHENY RIVER, PENNSYLVANIA.

 (Page 139.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1879, at which time there was no regular and permanent navigation, 
 the five old locks and dams on the lower portions of the river, built and owned by the State of 
 Kentucky, having become by disasters and neglect practically useless, and above them too little 
 water in low stages with ripples and bars of rock and gravel in the channel. 
 
 The four lower locks have been rebuilt and opened to navigation, and the reconstruction of the 
 fifth, and the construction of a new lock and dam have been commenced. 
 
 The navigation afforded by the work thus far accomplished has been active, and a depth of 
 6 feet maintained on about 82 miles of river. 
 
 This improvement is principally in the interest of the products of the forest, and of the coal 
 and iron tributary to the river.

 First appropriation, 1878. Before improvement the natural channels were narrow and crooked 
 with but 3 inches of water over shoals and ripples at low stages. There are now 18 inches over 
 them at extreme low water, and from 20 to 24 inches at average low-water stages, with the work 
 of improvement incomplete. 
 
 In the river and harbor act of 1880, provision was made for the construction of a lock and 
 dam at Louisa, which has been begun. This will form a pool extending some distance up the Tug 
 and Louisa forks for the security of timber rafts and coal, coming down the forks until it can be 
 run to the Ohio River.

 navigation, under a charter from the State of Virginia. 
 
 The total length of river now more or less improved, is 119 miles. The object of the improve- 
 ment is a raft navigation, with chutes 30 feet wide and eighteen inches deep for boats.

 Parkersburg. 
 
 The work done by the United States has been the removal of rock and other obstructions from 
 the head of slack-water navigation up to Bulltown, a distance of 87 miles, and the commencement 
 of a lock and dam which will extend slack- water navigation about 12 miles further than it exists 
 at present. 
 
 The returns of the navigation company show a considerable increase of business since this 
 clearing of the upper river.

 WABASH RIVER, INDIANA AND ILLINOIS. 
 
 (Page 260.) 
 
 First appropriation for improvement, 1872, previous expenditures having been for surveys. 
 Before improvement the river was only navigable at high stages. A lock at Grand Rapids and 
 a few improvements at other points bad been made by private enterprise, but they had become 
 almost useless. Steamers drawing 2 feet now regularly navigate the river for 70 miles below 
 Mount Carmel, and small boats can go from Vincennes to Terre Haute at stages of water not 
 before possible. 
 
 Three million eighty-two thousand nine hundred and seven bushels of grain, besides large 
 quantities of lumber and general merchandise passed over the river in the season of 1882.

 WHITE RIVER, INDIANA. 
 
 (Page 138.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1879. Before improvement the river was not navigable owing to snags 
 and other obstructions. The work of improvement, as far as it has now progressed, has resulted in 
 clearing the river entirely for a distance of 17 miles from its mouth, and partially so for 23 miles 
 further. Work upon a new channel through an obstruction near the mouth of the river is in pro- 
 gress. No material benefit to commerce is expected from expenditures made until this channel is 
 completed.

 SUPERIOR CITY ENTRANCE, AND DREDGING IN SUPERIOR BAY, WISCONSIN. 
 
 (Page 223.) 
 
 The work for this improvement, begun in 1867, has been the construction of piers at the nat- 
 ural entrance; shore and beach protection on Minnesota Point, and dredging the approaches to 
 Superior City. 
 
 Before improvement the depth at entrance was 10 feet and navigation precarious; it is now 
 12 feet and is about to be dredged to 15 feet; thence to the wharves at Superior City the depth 
 is from 15 to 16 feet. 
 
 The value of the trade and commerce of Superior City for 1881 is stated to have been $1,590,000.

 HARBOR AT GRAND MARAIS, MINNESOTA. 
 
 (Page 169.) 
 
 This improvement, begun with the appropriation of 1879, is the creation of a harbor of refuge 
 on the north shore of Lake Superior, between Duluth and the British Possessions, by the con- 
 struction of a breakwater. 
 
 The harbor has been deepened so that vessels drawing 16 feet can now enter for shelter. 
 The work is in progress and it is designed to enlarge the dredged area in the harbor, and by 
 the completion of the breakwater to create additional anchorage space. 
 
 The depth of water before improvement only admitted vessels drawing 10 feet, and the 
 harbor afforded but little shelter.

 ONTONAGON HARBOR, MICHIGAN. 
 
 (Page 164.) 
 
 This improvement was begun with the appropriation of 1867, at which date the deposit at the 
 mouth of Ontonagon River extended nearly half a mile into the lake, the channel across this bar 
 having only a depth of 6 feet. The deep water in the harbor has been connected with deep water 
 in the lake by a channel about 125 feet wide and 11 feet deep at low water, protected by two piers 
 200 feet apart. 
 
 The benefit to commerce is an improved inlet for supplies and an outlet for the forest, agri- 
 cultural, and mining products of the vicinity.

 First appropriation, 1866. The entrance to this harbor was obstructed by a rocky reef, upon 
 which there was a depth of about 9 feet. There is now a protected channel of entrance through 
 this reef with a width of 1?0 feet and a depth of 14 feet. 
 
 The benefit to commerce has been the development, np to the full requirements of navigation, 
 of an entrance to the harbor, thereby permitting an inlet to supplies and an outlet for the mining 
 products of the vicinity.

 There is now a commodious roadstead, protected by a breakwater 2,010 feet in length, with 
 its end resting in water over 30 feet deep. 
 
 The benefit to commerce is the increased protection of the wharves and ore docks of the port

 HARBOR OF REFUGE AT GRAND MARAIS, MICHIGAN. 
 
 (Page 161.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. Work commenced during the present fiscal year. 
 
 This harbor is about midway between Marquette and Sault Saiute Marie. It is an inclosed 
 bay having an area of 300 acres, 240 of which have a depth of from 18 to 50 feet. The natural 
 entrance from the lake is obstructed by a bar with a depth of only 6 feet. 
 
 The benefit to commerce will be, by the improvement of the entrance, the formation of a con- 
 venient and commodious harbor of refuge for the entire American commerce of Lake Superior, at 
 a point where the present damage to commerce from a lack of such refuge is very great.

 MANISTIQUE HARBOR, MICHIGAN. 
 
 (Page 162.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The depth of the natural channel of entrance was originally 7 feet. 
 Before improvement by the United States slab piers had been built on each side of the entrance 
 to 10 feet water in the lake by private means. With part of the appropriations of 1880 and 1881 
 this depth was increased to 12 feet, but a storm having destroyed a considerable part of one of 
 the ph-rs, work was suspended by reason of the refusal of the company controlling the harbor to 
 rectify their pier-lines when rebuilding their piers. 
 
 The commercial importance of this harbor is local and confined to one or two mill interests.

 A new work. Originally the bar at the mouth of the river had a depth of about 3 feet. By 
 private enterprise a slab pier has been built on one side of the entrance to the harbor and a 
 channel dredged about 150 feet wide and 8 feet deep. 
 
 No expenditure has yet been made for the improvement of this channel. 
 
 Commercial benefit local, and confined for the present to one mill interest.

 In 1871, before improvement, a bar extended into Green Bay, over which the depth of water 
 was about 6 feet. 
 
 The deep water in the harbor is now connected with the deep water of the bay by a channel 
 300 feet wide, not less than 10 feet deep, and including therein a channel 100 feet wide and 14 feet 
 deep. The channel is protected by two parallel piers 400 feet apart. 
 
 The benefit to commerce is, that this entrance admits the heaviest draught of lumber vessels 
 for the exportation of the very large forest products and the development of a water transportation 
 for the general merchandise of the vicinity.

 OCONTO HARBOR, WISCONSIN. 
 
 (Page 221.) 
 
 A new work recently begun with the combined appropriations of 1881 and 1882. By corporate 
 work an artificial connection has been made between Oconto River and Green Bay, but a bar exists 
 at the entrance of the river from the bay with not more than 3% feet water. 
 
 The benefit to commerce that will result from the improvement projected will be the formation 
 of a channel of 8 feet from the deep water of the bay to that of the river, facilitating the shipment 
 of the products of the forest, and the receipt of general merchandise.

 (Page-.) 
 
 A new work. No expenditure of the appropriation of 1882 has yet been made for purposes of 
 construction. 
 
 The improvement proposed is the extension of a slab pier already built by private enterprise 
 and the deepening of the present dredged channel of 7 feet to 10 feet, from the bay to the harbor, 
 which will increase the facilities for shipping the products of the forest and the receipt of supplies. 
 
 The advantages will largely accrue to a single mill interest.

 GREEN BAY HARBOR, WISCONSIN. 
 
 (Page 219.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1866. Between the mouth of Fox River and deep water in Green Bay 
 there formerly existed a very circuitous channel of about 4 miles, carrying about 10 feet of water. 
 There is now a nearly straight channel about 2 miles long, 200 feet wide, and L'J feet deep for 
 about half of its width, permitting the entrance of ordinary-sized vessels into the inner harbor, 
 and the exportation of large quantities of agricultural and forest products, and the importation of 
 considerable general merchandise. 
 
 This improvement is also the connecting link between the Fox or Wiscon sin rivers and the 
 Lakes which form one of the subdivisions of transportation routes between the Mississippi River 
 and the seaboard.

 HARBOR OF REFUGE AT THE ENTRANCE TO STURGEON BAY CANAL, WISCONSIN. 
 
 (Page 223.) 
 
 This is a construction to cover and protect the entrance to the canal from Lake Michigan. 
 The first appropriation was made in 1873. The deep water in the canal has been connected with 
 that in the lake by a channel about 75 feet wide, having a depth of 14 feet at low water and pro- 
 tected by converging piers. 
 
 The work of construction is nearly completed. 
 
 The canal shortens the distance between Lake Michigan and Green Bay about 100 miles, and 
 benefits a large part of the commerce of Green Bay.

 An appropriation was made in 1852 for this harbor, and an allotment of $10,000 in 1864. In 
 the interval between the first appropriation and 1866 the authorities of Sheboygan built crib-piers 
 extending to about 10 feet water in the lake. The work since executed has been an extension of 
 the Sheboygan work. In its natural condition there was a bar directly in front of the river mouth, 
 with but about 4 feet water. The deep water in the harbor is now connected with that in the lake

 First appropriation, 1870. In its natural condition the river was about 50 feet wide at its 
 mouth, with a depth of about 2 feet, and less than 1 foot a short distance above the mouth. The 
 improvement has been the construction of two interior artificial basins with an area of about of 
 acres, having a depth of 8 to 12 feet. The deep water in the lake is connected with these basins 
 by a 10-foot channel about 75 feet wide, protected by two parallel crib piers. 
 
 The benefit to commerce has been the creation of an artificial harbor and entrance from the 
 lake, furnishing an inlet to general merchandise and an outlet to the manufactures and agricult- 
 ural products of the vicinity.

 RACINE HARBOR, WISCONSIN. 
 
 (Page 221.) 
 
 Appropriations were made for this harbor in 1844 and 1852. Work resumed with appropriation 
 of 1864. Two hundred and twenty linear feet of crib-pier work were built by citizens of Racine in 
 1856-'57. 
 
 The original depth of water over the bar at the entrance to the harbor before improvement 
 was not more than 16 to 18 inches. In June last vessels drawing 13 feet could enter the harbor 
 without difficulty.

 dredging in the channel and some pier-work was done by private parties. 
 
 Before improvement the outlet was frequently obstructed by bars, but at times the discharge of 
 the river would keep a passage open, for a few days, from 2 to 4 feet deep.

 IMPROVEMENT OF FOX AND WISCONSIN RIVERS. 
 
 (Page 218.) 
 
 First appropriation for improvement 1867. 
 
 Thus far the benefits to commerce from expenditures made have been local. On Fox River 
 from Portage to Green Bay, 160 miles!, and on the Wisconsin from Portage to Sank, 29 miles, the 
 improvements have met all the demands of local commerce, so as to give a depth of 5 feet on the Lower 
 Fox from Lake Winnebago to Green Bay, and on the Upper Fox 3 feet to Portage City. During 
 the past season the channel of the Wisconsin has been improved so as to give a navigable channel 
 of 4 feet fur 10 miles below Portage. 
 
 Before improvement, through navigation was impracticable on the Upper Fox at low water, and 
 the portion of the Wisconsin, which has been improved, was in the same condition. 
 
 The anticipated benefit to commerce cannot be stated until the work is so advanced as to give 
 a permanent through navigable channel.

 CHICAGO HARBOR, ILLINOIS. 
 
 (Page 136.) 
 
 The first appropriation, made in 1833, was expended in opening a straight outlet from the river 
 into the lake, and commencing the pier work, since which the harbor has gradually been extended 
 to its present proportions. The benefit to commerce cannot be justly estimated, as between the 
 time of the first appropriation and the present, Chicago has grown from a village to a city of 
 upwards of 600,000 inhabitants. 
 
 The improvements in progress, when completed, will afford an outer harbor for vessels seeking 
 the port, and the breakwater a safe protection to all vessels driven to this end of the lake under 
 stress of weather.

 ILLINOIS RIVER. 
 
 (Page 137.) 
 
 The first appropriation in 1852 was applied to dredging channels through bars. The work of 
 improvement was resumed with the appropriation of 1869 previous appropriations having been 
 applied to surveys and has resulted iu giving a navigable depth of 4 feet over numerous bars. 
 The natural channel was narrow and crooked, with not more than 18 inches depth iu the shoalest 
 places, and frequently obstructed by dangerous snags, the removal of which, together with the 
 construction of several miles of dikes and jetties for the maintenance of the deepened channels, 
 have essentially promoted the safe navigation of the river and the commercial interests of 
 that section. 
 
 The completion of the lock foundation at Copperas Creek, and the commencement of locks at 
 La Grange and Kampsville, are a part of the slack water system adopted and designed to secure 
 still larger facilities of a more permanent character. 
 
 The present improvement, when completed, will afford a through water communication from 
 the Mississippi to Lake Michigan.

 Appropriations made at intervals between the years 1836 and 1852. The work ultimately 
 went to decay for want of funds for its preservation, and was abandoned. A private company, 
 organized in J864, expended $100,000 in pier work and gent ral improvement. The United States 
 resumed work with the appropriation of 1806. The. improvement since made has been such that 
 the commerce of the port has increased fivefold. The largest class of lake vessels can now enter 
 the harbor at all times. Receipts during 1882 are reported at not less than $4,000,000.

 (Page 164.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1852. A Board of Engineers recommended, in 1868, the abandonment of 
 the harbor owing to the want of local commerce and the decay of business. But the appropriation 
 of 1866 being considered mandatory, work was resumed upon the harbor. Since 1872 expenditures 
 have been confined to repairs. The. appropriation of 18*2 is held under advisement. 
 
 To comply with a resolution of the House of Representatives of February, 1882, a survey was 
 made and estimates submitted for a harbor of refuge here. 
 
 The place is of no commercial importance, but the locality well suited for a harbor of refuge.

 SAINT JOSEPH'S HARBOR AND CHANNEL LEADING TO BENTON HARBOR. 
 
 MICHIGAN. 
 
 (Page 166.) 
 
 Appropriations made at intervals, for Saint Joseph, between 1836 and 1852. Work resumed 
 in 1864 in continuation of plan originally adopted. Before improvement the river had its outlet 
 to the southward of the present entrance, which has now a depth of 13 to 19 feet. The Beuton 
 Canal has been deepened and partly revetted. 
 
 The trade of the two ports is large and rapidly increasing. The improvements thus far made 
 are regarded by those interested as very satisfactory.

 SAINT MARY'S FALLS CANAL AND SAINT MARY'S RIVER, MICHIGAN. 
 
 (Page 167.) 
 
 The canal was originally built by the State of Michigan from a laud grant by the United 
 States, and opened in 1855. It admitted the passage of boats of not more than 11 feet draught, 
 and tolls were exacted from all except United States vessels. 
 
 By the construction of a new and larger canal, as also by the deepening of the channel 
 through the shoals in Saint Mary's River above and below the falls, vessels drawing 1C feet, the 
 largest on the lakes, now pass between Lake Huron and Lake Superior, and the canal is free from 
 tolls.

 There was originally a depth of only 7 feet over the bar at the mouth of the river, which was 
 increased to 12 feet by private parties. At this time the depth is 10 feet. The act of August 2, 
 1882, appropriates $15,000 for increasing the depth to 14 feet.

 (Page 158.) 
 
 Ill 1867, before improvement, the depth of water ou the bar was 4 feet, and in the harbor 4 
 feet. It is now 7 feet ou the bar, and 8 in the harbor. 
 
 But little benefit to commerce has resulted from the improvements at this locality, owing to 
 the constant re-formation of the bar at the mouth of the river.

 SAGINAW RIVER, MICHIGAN. 
 
 (Page 165.) 
 
 In 1866, before improvement, there was a navigable channel of 8 feet over the bar at the 
 mouth of the river. It is now 12 feet, with a least width of 75 feet. In the river above Bay City 
 the improvements have allowed vessels drawing 10 feet to reach East Saginaw, where before not 
 more than 8 feet existed. The work in progress is designed to increase the navigable capacity to 
 12 feet, with a corresponding benefit to commerce.

 The first appropriation for this harbor was made in 1875. The navigable capacity of the 
 channel from Saginaw Bay to the mouth of the river has been increased from 3 feet to 6 feet in 
 depth, to the benefit of local commerce. 
 
 The general commerce of the lakes has not been benefited by this improvement, owing to its 
 limited extent. 
 
 HARBOR OF REFUGE, SAND BEACH, LAKE HURON, MICHIGAN. 
 
 (Page 161.) 
 
 This work was begun in 1871. There is now, where no harbor previously existed, a sheltered 
 area, easy of access, covering 160 acres, over which there is a navigable depth of 18 feet and more, 
 or 300 acres, with a depth of not less than 12 feet, forming a harbor of refuge to vessels during 
 storms on a coast which, for 138 miles, had no harbor. 
 
 Five thousand seven hundred and ten vessels, aggregating 1,641,306 tons, have sought refuge 
 here from storms since 1877.

 SAINT CLAIR RIVER, AT PORT HURON, MOUTH OF BLACK RIVER, MICHIGAN. 
 
 (Page 165.) 
 
 The navigable capacity of this locality was, in 1872, before improvement, only 10 feet depth j 
 it is now 15 feet. 
 
 The benefit to the general commerce of the lakes has been a free access to the water front of 
 Port Huron, and" to allow vessels under 15-feet draught to navigate the river without crossing to 
 the Canada shore, and the removal of a dangerous shoal in the river.

 PINE RIVER, AT ITS JUNCTION WITH SAINT GLAIR RIVER, MICHIGAN. 
 
 (Page 165.) 
 
 The navigable capacity, from the entrance to the river for 4,000 feet up-stream, has been 
 increased from 9 feet before improvement, in 1875, to 12 feet, and for the further distance of a mile 
 from 7 to 9 feet. 
 
 The benefit to commerce has been to allow the direct shipment of largo quantities of bricks 
 made on the banks of Piue River, that had formerly to be hauled by land to the Saint Clair River 
 for shipment. 
 
 ICE-HARBOR, BELLE RIVER, MICHIGAN. 
 
 (Page 158.) 
 
 This improvement, begun in 1880, is still unfinished and is designed as a secure harbor for 
 vessels during winter, and from the danger of being crushed by the breaking up of the ice in the 
 spring. 
 
 During the present winter it has already been filled with vessels laid up for the season as far 
 as its present capacity would admit.

 Before the present improvement, in 1866, the depth of water in this locality was scarcely suffi- 
 cient for the passage of vessels drawing 10 feet, and the channel was narrow, crooked, and difficult 
 of navigation. There is now a straight channel 200 feet wide and 10 feet deep, or 300 feet wide 
 and 13 feet deep, with a saving of distance of more than a mile over the route. 
 
 The whole commerce of the lakes has been benefited by this important cut-off in the great 
 thoroughfare from Lake Erie to Lake Huron.

 In 1835, before improvement, the approach to the town of Monroe was through a narrow and 
 crooked channel, from Lake Erie through La Plaisance Bay, with a least depth of 6 feet. There 
 is now a straight channel of 100 feet width with a least depth of 9J feet. 
 
 When this improvement was commenced Monroe was a place of much importance. Its com- 
 merce has declined. But twenty-eight vessels entered and cleared in 1881.

 At the time of the first appropriation for this harbor, 1829, the depth of water at the entrance 
 was but 2 feet; this was increased by the construction of piers and by dredging to 11 feet in 1838. 
 After which time, until 1866, there were but two appropriations, at long intervals, and upon the 
 resumption of the. improvement in 1867 the depth was found reduced to 8J feet. 
 
 The present depth is less. The piers are now in a dilapidated condition ; a large breach 
 has been made through one of them by storms, and the superstructure of the remaining part is

 The work of improvement was begun with the appropriation of 1824, at which time the depth 
 at entrance was 6 feet. In 1835 it had been increased to 13 feet. As but two appropriations were 
 made, at long intervals, between the years 1838 and 1864, on the resumption of work in 1864 the 
 depth was found reduced to 9 feet. It is now 16 feet.

 CUNNINGHAM CEEEK, LAKE EEIE, OHIO. 
 
 (Page 195.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1826. This improvement was not for the purpose of obtaining a navigable 
 channel through the mouth of the creek, but to obtain a shelter for vessels, independent of access 
 to the interior. 
 
 The plan adopted was that of parallel piers, running into the lake, 475 feet apart, with an 
 outer protection by a breakwater parallel to the shore. The piers were carried out by cribs, 
 separated from each other about 30 feet, and bridged over. The first work built was so slight 
 as to need frequent repairs, and the projected breakwater was never built. 
 
 In 1839 the piers were still unfinished, and upon an inspection by a Board of Engineer 
 Officers it was concluded that "the wants of agriculture or commerce, or the business to be 
 drawn to this place by them," were not sufficient to warrant further expenditure. 
 
 The work has been abandoned since that date. 
 
 PORTLAND HAEBOE, LAKE EEIE, NEW YOEK. 
 
 (Page 186.) 
 
 This harbor, situated 12 miles west of Dunkirk, was originally an open roadstead, the town 
 being at the bottom of a small bay, fronting .to the north. The works to protect the landing 
 consisted of a pier, built by individual enterprise, extending into the lake from the eastern cape 
 of the bay, and a pier from the western cape, extending 1,200, feet into the lake, built by the 
 United States with the appropriations of 1836-'37 and '38. 
 
 The town having become a place of no commercial importance, the piers have been permitted 
 to decay, there having been no appropriation tor the work since 1838. 
 
 DUNKIRK HAltBOE, NEW YOEK. 
 
 (Page 179. ) 
 
 The improvement of this harbor was begun in 1827. The entrance is through a depression 
 in a solid rock reef, which extends entirely across the harbor. No change of depth was effected 
 until 1877, when the depth was increased about 2 feet by blasting, making the entrance about 12 
 feet deep. 
 
 Expenditures upon this harbor have been mainly for the purpose of affording, by the 
 construction of a breakwater, security for vessels seeking the harbor. 
 
 The commerce of Dunkirk has diminished of late years, and is now small.

 Before any improvement was made here, the entrance to the creek was extremely shoal, 
 shifting, and often impracticable. The appropriations of 1836, 1837, and 1838 were applied to the 
 construction of parallel piers, by which the entrance was so much improved as to become

 accessible to steamers, and for a time the commerce of the place gradually increased in 
 consequence. 
 
 The commerce of the creek has since declined, and the piers, having been neglected for want 
 of appropriation since 1838, have gone to decay, but to what extent is not known. 
 
 BUFFALO HARBOR, NEW YORK. 
 
 (Page 176.) 
 
 First appropriation by Congress, 1826. Piers were built at the mouth of Buffalo Creek in 
 1820-'21 by private enterprise as an inducement to locate the termiuus of the Erie Canal at 
 this point. 
 
 The plan of improvement, as modiQed at various times, provided for the construction of a 
 north and a south pier at the mouth of the creek ; a masonry sea wall running south from the south 
 pier, and a breakwater, a little less than half a mile distant from and in front of the Buffalo light- 
 house, its long arm running nearly parallel with the general shore line of the lake. 
 
 The north and south piers were finished long ago, and the sea wall also. The depth of water 
 between the piers at the entrance to the harbor was 10 feet in 1835, and is now 16 feet at low water. 
 The breakwater at the end of the last working season had been completed to a length of 4,887 feet; 
 its projected length is 7,600 feet, with an arm to extend from its extremity to the shore. The 
 present sheltered harbor area is about 320 acres. 
 
 For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1882, the value of imports was $5,473,864. Number

 BLACK ROCK HARBOR, NEW YORK. 
 
 (Page 176.) 
 
 The appropriations from 1829 to 1834, inclusive, were applied to the construction of a pier and 
 mole inclosing the western entrance to the harbor. The lower portions of the pier, which forms 
 the harbor, and a dike ou Squaw Island had been constructed by the State of New York; the 
 United States works were at the upper extremity of this pier and in continuation of it. The object 
 of the mole was to arrest the sand from entering into the harbor. 
 
 The harbor being in fact a continuation of the Erie Canal, the United States works were at 
 the time of the highest importance to commerce, as it was through the artificial harbor that the 
 canal gained access to Lake Erie.

 Two parallel piers were built by private enterprise in 1846, and the improvement continued 
 from time to time by pier work and dredging, by which the original depth at entrance of 1 foot 
 was increased to 6 feet. 
 
 The first appropriation by Congress was in 1875. The piers have been rebuilt and extended 
 to 9 feet water in the lake, and there is now about that depth of entrance. 
 
 The harbor is of local importance only, the arrivals and departures averaging about one a

 The piers have been carried out to 9 feet water in the lake, and the channel deepened to 10 feet 
 for a width of 50 feet. In excavating this channel a bed of rock was encountered, which made the 
 cost of this work greater than was anticipated. 
 
 The harbor is of local importance only. Chief articles of commerce, fruit, grain, and lumber. 
 
 OAK OECHAED HAEBOE, NEW YOEK. 
 
 (Page 183.) 
 
 Appropriations were made for this harbor at intervals from 1836 to 1852. The present improve- 
 ment dates from the appropriation of 1867. Originally, the mouth of the creek was closed by a bar 
 upon which there was only from 2 to 4 feet water. The improvement consists of a breakwater built 
 in 1836 and two parallel piers 200 feet apart, extending to 9 feet water in the lake. The channel 
 between the] piers is from 40 to 80 feet wide and 12 feet deep at low water, cut through a sandstone 
 ledge. This is the only point between the mouth of Genesee River and Niagara River, a distance 
 of SO miles, suitable for a harbor of refuge, being about midway, with plenty of water inside. 
 
 The harbor is of local importance only, but by deepening the entrance to 12 feet might be made 
 a good harbor of refuge.

 With appropriations from 1829 to 1835, the entrance to the harbor had been deepened by the 
 construction of parallel piers from 4 to 15 feet. The subsequent appropriations made at intervals 
 to date have been expended in the repairs and reconstruction of the piers; the depth at entrance 
 has remained about the same.

 First appropriation, 1827, at which time the mouth of the river was an open roadstead, afford- 
 ing no shelter from the winds of the lake, and the depth of water iu channel 7 feet. An area at 
 the mouth of the river was inclosed, and subsequent appropriations were applied to repairing and 
 renewing the original structures and to dredging. The present improvement was begun with the 
 appropriation of 1871, the plan being that of a west and east breakwater, with an opening of 350 
 feet between them for entrance into the harbor and river. The west breakwater, 6,t)25 feet long, 
 is completed ; the east one, which is designed to be 2,700 feet long, has been commenced. The river 
 channel has been deepened to 15 feet at extreme low water. The present sheltered harbor area is

 First appropriation, 1873. This improvement, so far as it was originally contemplated, was 
 completed in 1875. The depth of water through the bar at the head of Little River, the upper 
 entrance to the harbor, was increased from 7 to 11 feet. The subsequent appropriations were 
 applied to excavation in the lower entrance. This has been discontinued owing to the high cost 
 of the blasting required and the little good to result from it.

 The appropriations of 1836, 1837, and 1838 were applied to "the excavation and removal of 
 the sand and other alluvial deposits, which had so far accumulated below the town as to prevent 
 steamers, and other vessels of larger classes navigating Lake Champlain, from approaching within 
 less than half a mile of the proper landing places, to the great inconvenience of the traveling and 
 commercial community." 
 
 The benefit to commerce was to afford (in 1840) "a channel quite up to the wharves and land- 
 ing places of from 9 to 12 feet deep at low water."

 The town is so situated that vessels lying at the wharves had originally no natural protection 
 from westerly winds. The breakwater built with appropriations made from 1836 to 1844, was 
 found, when work was to be resumed with the appropriation of 1806, to be insufficient, owing to 
 the extension of the line of wharves by the growth of the place. The old breakwater was 
 therefore, extended at each end. The appropriations from 1866 to date have been applied to this 
 new work, and to occasional repairs.

 tion of a breakwater 259 feet long. 
 
 The docks and wharves have been located at some distance from the breakwater, thereby 
 receiving very little or no protection from it. In view of this and the uncertainty of the future 
 location of others now under consideration, further expenditures are withheld until their estab- 
 lishment shall give indications of requirements for further extension of the breakwater.

 The appropriations of 1836 and 1837 were expended in dredging. This is the main water com- 
 munication between the commercial channel on the western and Swanton Harbor and Saint Albans 
 Bay on the eastern side of the lake, and is used by steam and sail vessels engaged in the general 
 and local commerce of the lake. The entrance and outlet of this channel has since diminished in 
 width and is obstructed by dangerous rocks. It should be widened and the rocks removed.

 WILMINGTON HARBOR, CALIFORNIA. 
 
 (Page 121.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1871. Before improvement there was a variable depth of 1 to 2 feet 
 at low water on the bar at the entrance. All freight aud passengers had to be lightered for 
 several miles. 
 
 The present depth varies from 8 to 10 feet at low water and 14 to 1C feet at high water. Ves- 
 sels drawing 14 feet now enter and deliver freight at the wharves. Deep-draught ships are now 
 obliged, as formerly, to lie outside and discharge by lighters. 
 
 Trade before improvement, 1871 : exports, 9,575 tons ; imports, 25,313 tons. Imports, lumber, 
 10,938,3:56 tons. 
 
 In 1881, exports, 23,506 tons; imports, 90,340 tons. Imports, lumber, 41,217,428 feet.

 PETALUMA CREEK, CALIFORNIA. 
 
 (Page 120.) 
 
 First appropriation, If'SO. But little progress has been made upon this improvement, the 
 appropriation of 1881 having been too small to justify its application until a larger sum became 
 available. With the addition of the appropriation of 1882 work has been resumed. Two cut-offs 
 were made in the stream with the first appropriation, which considerably shortened the trips of 
 the numerous vessels that ply between Petaluma aud San Francisco. The deepening of the 
 channel cannot fail to prove of additional advantage. 
 
 A considerable area of country, affording employment to a large fleet of schooners and to a 
 line of steamers, depends in a great measure for its prosperity upon this navigation.

 SACRAMENTO AND FEATHER RIVERS, CALIFORNIA. 
 
 (Page 120.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1875. The improvement of these rivers has consisted in the construction 
 of wing-dams, to give greater depth in shallow places, and in the removal of snags from the channel 
 and impending trees from the banks. 
 
 The Upper Sacramento changes its bed in many places with great facility, and the clearance 
 of snags is indispensable to its navigation. But for these operations a large portion of the river, 
 forming an outlet for a large agricultural country, would have become unnavigable at ordinary 
 stages, and the expenditure has in this way afforded benefit to navigation.

 SAN JOAQUIN RIVER, CALIFORNIA. 
 
 (P>ige 121.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1876. Two permanent improvements have been made in the channel of 
 the river by the excavation of canals 100 feet wide and 10 feet deep to straighten an unusual 
 abruptness of the bends of the river that made the passage difficult for the daily steamers and 
 delayed sailing vessels. 
 
 Channels have been dredged to great advantage in Stockton and Merman sloughs, permitting 
 full loads to be carried in the low stage of water. These improvements have encouraged tho 
 establishment of warehouses aud a large grist-mill at Stockton, which is a center of wheat trade. 
 
 The construction of brush dams in the bed of the upper river and the removal of snags have

 HUMBOLDT HAEBOE AND BAY, CALIFOENIA. 
 
 (Page 120.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1881. Operations in this harbor have been limited to dredging the ship- 
 channel at two points, and in surveys with a view to the future improvement of the entrance. 
 Additional dredging at these and two other points is about to be commenced. 
 
 The dredging has been a convenience to vessels engaged in the commerce of this port, which is 
 the most important in California north of San Francisco, and whose commerce is steadily increasing, 
 and has lessened delays in receipt and discharge of cargoes, and in some cases has dispensed with 
 lighterage.

 SAN FEANCISCO HAEBOE, CALIFOENIA. 
 (Page 121.) 
 
 Allotments, 1868 and 1869; appropriations, 1872 and 1874. Expenditures made at this harbor 
 have been applied to the improvement of navigable channels by the removal of dangers. 
 
 Blossom and Eincou rocks, isolated peaks in navigable channels in the harbor, with 6 and 8 
 feet over them at low water, were removed to a deptli of 24 feet at mean low water. Noonday Eock, 
 situated at sea, about 30 miles off the heads, was removed to the deptli of 47 feet. The wreck of 
 the ship Patrician on the bar at the entrance to the harbor was also removed. 
 
 These operations relieved commerce of danger, but did not affect the navigable capacity of the 
 channels. 
 
 SAN DIEGO HAEBOE, CALIFOENIA. 
 (Page 121.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1852. To prevent injury to the harbor by the deposit of sand and soil 
 into the bay during times of flood, a levee was built across the river in 1853-'54, to divert it into 
 False Bay. 
 
 This stood but a few years, and was eventually carried away by an unusual freshet. 
 The same object has been successfully accomplished with the appropriation of 1875, and the 
 expenditure has resulted in benefiting commerce to the extent of preserving the harbor permanently 
 from injury "by the river.

 HAEBOE OF EEFUGE ON THE PACIFIC COAST. 
 
 (Page 121.) 
 
 Only so much of the appropriation of $150,000 of March 3, 1879, has been expended as was 
 required to meet the cost of an examination of several harbors on the Pacific coast by a Board of 
 Engineer officers. The balance is held to await the future action of Congress, it having been 
 found that the amount available could not produce beneficial results. 
 
 According to the estimates of the Board an ultimate expenditure of about $8,000,000 may be 
 involved in the complete establishment of the harbor in question. 
 
 The majority of the Board recommends Port Orford as the most suitable point for the 
 proposed work. 
 
 LOWEE WILLAMETTE AND COLUMBIA EIVEES, FEOM POETLAND, OEEGON, TO 
 
 THE SEA. 
 
 (Page 200.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1866. Before improvement the natural depth on the shoalest bar below 
 Portland was about 9 feet at low water, and -on six other bars 10 to 15 feet. 
 
 Since the work has been in progress the ruling depths have generally been kept at 15, then 17 
 and 19 feet low water, with greater depths on part of the bars. 
 
APPROPRIATIONS AND EXPENDITURES FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS. Ill 
 
 The benefit to commerce has been the maintenance of a ship-channel from Astoria, near the 
 mouth of Columbia River, to Portland, 100 miles, with safer and easier navigation. 
 
 Before improvement, small steamships made tri-mouthly trips from San Francisco to Portland, 
 at present large steamers make two trips per week, with occasional freight steamers, and from 
 Puget Sound regular colliers. Two steamers have lately arrived from China.

 UPPER WILLAMETTE RIVER, OREGON. 
 
 (Page 199.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1871. Previous to 1875 there was no navigation above the mouth of the 
 Yamhill (40 miles from Portland) during low water. Since 1877 there has been no time when it 
 was not possible to reach Cors^allis, 114 miles. 
 
 Before the completion of the main lines of the valley railroads, the river was the only means 
 of transportation for an area of about 3,000 square miles of settled and cultivated agricultural 
 country; the opening of these roads has diminished the river tiansportation.

 UPPER COLUMBIA AND SNAKE RIVERS, OREGON AND WASHINGTON TERRITORY. 
 
 (Page 227.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1872. The natural channel through the rock rapids was, before improve- 
 ment, narrow, tortuous, and rapid, with a depth of 2 to 4 feet at low stage. Navigation was diffi- 
 cult and dangerous, and limited to periods of favorable stage. Improvements have been made at 
 thirteen localities, by which navigation is easier and its period prolonged, and depths increased to 
 4J and 5 feet. The carrying capacity of boats using the river has increased 25 to 50 per cent. 
 
 The productions of the Upper Columbia country are rapidly increasing; for the year ending 
 May 30, 1882, their value was computed to be about $0,000,000.

 CANAL, CASCADES OF COLUMBIA RIVER, OREGON. 
 
 (Page 226.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1877. Improvement in progress, and consists ,of open river work over a 
 reach of about 4 miles, from head of present navigation to the foot of projected canal. The river 
 part is about one half completed, the canal part about one-fourth. 
 
 The completion will give a continuous navigation of 8 feet least depth of channel from the 
 head of ship navigation as far up as The Dalles, 45 miles, which is the border of the productive 
 and extensive Upper Columbia region, from which to The Dalles, railroad construction Is compara- 
 tively easy, whereas, below The Dalles, it is difficult, and its maintenance would be expensive, 
 
 No material benefit to commerce can be expected until the improvement is completed.

 ENTRANCE TO COOS BAY, OREGON. 
 
 (Page 199.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1879. Improvement incomplete; its object is to open and maintain a 
 deeper and more direct channel across the sea-bar by jetty construction. 
 
 The natural channel was shifting, usually tortuous, and with not more than 9 to 12 feet at mean 
 low water. 
 
 The benefit to commerce is that an unusual draught of 14 feet has been carried over the bar, 
 and that night crossings of the bar, not previously attempted, have been made. The improvement 
 furnishes encouragement to large lumber and coal interests of the region.

 LOWER CLEARWATER RIVER, IDAHO. 
 
 (Page 135.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1879. The improvement has for its object to open a channel through rock 
 reefs and cobblestone bars for rafts and small river boats 60 feet wide, and 4 feet deep at low stage, 
 for a distance of 40 miles. The natural channel was impracticable for boats and difficult for rafts. 
 
 The partial improvement so far made has greatly benefited a timber interest. Its completion 
 will make the Lower Clearwater an actual part of the Upper Columbia River highway.

 ENTRANCE TO YAQOINA BAY, OREGON. 
 
 (Page 200.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The projected improvement is to afford a permanent central 
 channel over the bar, with a depth of not less than 12 feet at mean low tide. Of the three 
 natural shifting channels, the best one had a depth of from 7 to 9 feet; the two others are 
 obstructed by rocks. The work has not advanced sufficiently to benefit commerce. Under 
 the expectation of its completion, a railroad has been projected and partially constructed from a 
 point iu the Willamette Valley to Yaquiua Bay.

 MOUTH OF COQUILLE RIVER, OREGON. 
 
 (Page 199.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. By the construction, in part, of a low jetty the expenditure has 
 resulted in a marked benefit to the entrance channel. This was naturally tortuous, obstructed by 
 rocks, somewhat shifting, and rarely carried more than 3 feet at low water. The incomplete jetty 
 has caused this channel to till completely above high tide, and has cut out a straight channel, as 
 intended, entirely free from rocks, and with an additional depth of 2 to 3 feet. The improvement, 
 so far, is eminently successful. 
 
 There is a brisk ship-building industry on the river. The exports consist of lumber, manu- 
 factured wooden articles, produce, salmon, hides, and skins. The valley is exceedingly fertile.

 COWLITZ RIVER, WASHINGTON TERRITORY. 
 
 (Page 216.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880. The improvement consists in the removal of drift, snags, and bars, 
 to give an easy and safe light-draught navigation at all stages as far as Cowlitz Landing, 40 miles 
 from the river mouth. 
 
 The work accomplished has facilitated transportation and rafting, and has promoted rapid 
 settlement of the fertile and productive valley of the river. All the industries of the valley have 
 more than doubled since 1879, and the river trade is steadily increasing. 
 
 Excepting only the Willamette and Snake rivers, the Cowlitz is the most important tributary 
 of the Columbia.

 (Page 216.) 
 
 First appropriation, 1880, for the Skagit was expended in a partial improvement of that stream 
 by removing snags and jams that rendered it at times impassable. The appropriation of 1882 is 
 being applied to the construction of a snag-boat for use on all these rivers; the aggregate length 
 on which navigation can be readily improved and extended is about 250 miles. In the absence of 
 wagon roads they form the only routes of travel and transportation. 
 
 The population has doubled since 1880, and the discovery of coal and iron near the Skagit has 
 given impulse to important enterprises which depend principally on a free river for their success.

 No benefit to commerce nor increase of navigable capacity resulted. 
 The Umpqua above Scottsburg is not navigable water as defined by the Supreme Court.

 when the public, interests require it, shall cause examinations or re-exami- 
 nations to be made, with suitable surveys of the works aforesaid, and all 
 other works provided for by this act, and shall make such changes or modi- 
 fications of tbo plans heretofore adopted for their improvement as shall be 
 necessary and proper. And he shall cause such needful examination of 
 other harbors and places in the fourth section of thiaact speciiied, upon the 
 sea and lake coasts, and on western rivers, to be made as will enable him to 
 determine what improvements thereof are required to render them safe and 
 convenient for the navigation of the naval and commercial vessels of the 
 United States, aud the cost of such impiovrments, and he shall make lull 
 report thereof, and of the plans deemed advisable therefor, to Congress, at 
 the commencement of the next session, for such action as may be judged 
 expedient and right. And if, upon suc.h examinations and survey of works 
 first herein named, being works now existing or in. process of completion, 
 and concernintr which no sufficient information is now in the possession of 
 the department, there siuill remain an unexpended balance of appropriation 
 properly applicable thereto from the sums herein appropriated, which may, 
 in U0 Judgment of the Secretary of War, b judiciously applied toward the 
 economical and needful continuation or completion of such works, the Sec- 
 retary of War shall direct such balance to be applied and used accordingly ; 
 but no moneys shall be nsed for snch pui-poses excepting from the balances 
 remaining from appropriations herein made for the specific examination and 
 snrvey of snch works? 1
