MISSISSIPPI LEVEES,
Mr. Ropes, of Boston, of tho special committee
to whom was referred the subject of Southern
levees, reported a resolution to tho effect that
Congress is earnestly requested to investigate tho
existing state of the navigation of the Mississippi
River and of the levees upon its hanks and to aid,
so far as may seem practicable and proper, the
efforts of the States lying along its course to pro
tect the adjacent lands from inundation, and to
secure the permanent improvement of its naviga
tion and levees.
pacific railroad.
The resolution was agreed to tho preposition of
tlic St. Louis Merchants’ Exchange, instructing
the Executive Committee to memorialize Congress
to grant subsidies for the construction of a more
central Pacillo railroad to San Diego and San-
Francisco, continued from the last annual meet
ing, was tahen up; also, the amendment offered
by Mr. Conner, of St Louis, providing that such
railroad be built by the government, of double
Track, private individuals to be permitted to draw
trains, whether as individuals or corporations,
under similar conditions as lines of boats are al
lowed To navigate the canals of the country,
taxing the tonnapo passing over at suflieient toll
to maintain the rdaa-bcd in perfect order.
Mr. Bonncr.was the first speaker to discuss the
question. lie did so in a written address, in
which be compared with the state of things fifty
vears ago, the present era of the railroad, and
the telegraph. He said that the growth of mon
strous railway' monopolies must cease without
delay, if the rights and interests of the masses
were to bo presented, and the true progress and
power of the nation consulted. The consolida
tion of these -stupendous agencies was opposed to
public policy. Their power had been felt iu
Washington, and there was great danger to the
republic iu tbclr combination of material power.
Already there was a movement on foot
to place a railway magnate in
the Executive chair of the
nation. As long as Congress is required to fur
nish tbe means, how much better it would be for
tbe government to build tho roads, thus insurihg
the cheapest transportation ami the opening up
of xmblic lands to actual settlers at government
rates. He estimated the land grants already
given to some half dozen railroad corporations at
two hundred millions of acres, which, at the rate
of four dollars per acre, the sum realized by tho
Union Pacific .Railroad Company amounts to
ciirlit hundred million of dollars, a sum vastly in
excess of tho value of all tbe railroads in Ameri
ca. It is not proposed that the
government should go into the transportation
business. This should be left to private compe
tition. The plan was to have tbe government
road used by everybody who choose under restric
tions and regulations prescribed by the govern
ment, with a toil suUiclcnt to maintain the road
bed in good order. According to a low estimate
the railroad tonnage of America would duplicate
itself every ten years, and tbe rate of saving to
tbe people resulting from his proposition thirty
years hence would be sufficient to extinguish tho
national debt in half a decade. As rax»idly as
mavbe, all tbe railroads iu tho country should
pas's under tbe control of the government.! ho
►bareholdersreceiving a just compensation. The
telegraph was on the eve of falling Into the hands
of Congress, and tbe railroad system should fol
low. Ho would have tbe railroads of America as
tree to tbe competition of the people as are the
lakes, rivers, and canals.
J. L. ilustby, of Philadelphia, said he hailed
with great satisfaction the new departure of the
gentleman from St. Louis on this subject. He
had seen tbe process of railway consolidation
moving on until we were till that a single rail
way magnate was the most powerful man in the
United States. If there must bo concentrated
power, let it be lodged in the government, subject
to tbe control of the people through
their representatives. Ho should vote for the
proposiiiourecommendingthe government to en
ter upon the buskiess of railroad construction.
It would dispense with the fearful waste of the
public domain, and this alone should commend
the scheme. In order to give more dcilnitenesa
to the proposition lie would move an amendment
providing that the General Government shall not
build more than a certain length of road, hereaf
ter to be defined, in any one year, the length of
road built each year thereafter to be determined
by the ratio of the sale of public lands adjacent
to the amount of road already built. He propos
ed this in order to secure the advance of popula
tion in proportion to tho construction of rail
roads.
Mr. Atkinson, of Boston, found one great
objection to the plan, which was that it started
Irom the centre, and did not benefit all sections
of the country. He proposed to add to Mr. Bon
ner's resolution a provision to thoefieetthat when
this main Ime is completed, justice demands that
every town and city in the United States should
have direct connection with the main lino, such
connections to be constructed by the government.
The Chair ruled this amendment out of order.
Mr. Atkinson said that it could remain where
It was tor the information of the board. (Laugh
ter.!
Mr. Bu£c*bv's amendment was put to vote and
lust.
Mr. Opdylce, of New York, said he hoped that
the day was not far distant when the public in
terests would be protected against monoply, but
not in the form proposed. Tbeprotection should
be afforded by government rogulationof tberates
r.ud charges allowed to be imposed by railroads.
He objected to the proposition because if govern
ment built roads they would inure solely to tho
benefit of those living along the line, mainly emi
grants from abroad. A broadcrobjeotiou -was the
fact that private enterprise had already built
trans-continental lines with government aid, and
the construction of a competing line by the gov
ernment would result in destroying the
capital invested in these roads. As well
imchi the government undertake to assume all
the manufacture of cotton cloth, and thus destroy
the value of all the capital Invested in that
branch of industry.
Mr. Holton, of Milwaukee, offered a substitute
providing that the government take possession,
on just payment for the same, of all the railroads
and telegraph lines of the country, under rules
oud regulations prescribed by Congress, and
that Congress build new roads as fust as the pub
lic exigencies require.
Having been assured by the Chair that a dele
gate was bound to vote for his own proposition,
Sir. Dolton proceeded to say that he was glad to
recognize the railroad power of the land
as ‘'the result ot private enterprise,
and it was no part of the government to employ
its forces to crush that power. If governments
were divinely honest, like that of New York
{laughter] he should bo willing to vote for his
own proposition, but under tbe circumstances ho
must oppose it and all propositions looking to
the construction and management of tho nul
wavs by tbe government.
Mr. Welch, of Philadelphia, said that the pro
posed svstciii had been tried in Pennsylvama,and
thejpeoplc had tired of it. The State had parted
with its control of railroads. He hoped that
some plan -would be delvised for the checking of
railroad monopolies, but be must oppose this
proposlt ion.
Mr. Wetberclll, of Philadolpnia, disliked the
disposition manifested to kill the proposition by
lidicule. He doubted very much whether tbo
people were ready to endorse an expenditure of
not less Hum 8150.000.000, required to construct
o oco miles of double-track railway with steel
rails, and this board should be careful how it
weakened its influence by advocating such a
scheme.
Mr. Neeley, of Newark, said that the matter
should be finally disposed of by tbo rejection of
the proposition.
Mr JMom oc.of Dubuque,said that the remedy for
railroad monopolies and excessive rates rested iu
the representatives of the people in the regula
tion oi railroad charges by law.
Mr. Cook, of Cincinnati, moved that the subject
bo postponed till tho next annual meeting of the
board.
Mr. McPherson, of Et. Louis, wanted the mat
ter disposed of now. lie did not believe there
wcie five members of this board who, were they
ir.embt is of Congnss, would vote for auysuch
scln me, and this board should not endorse to
Congress a proposition which it would not itself
MijqU’Jt.
I Mr. Bonner, in reply to tlio argument of Mr.
Opdvho. quoted a circular of Jay Cooke Co..sct
ting*fmib the fact that the lauds granted by Con
cu-t-s :o the Union Pacific Railroad would build
;md equip tbo road, and leave as a residue one
half oi Use land, 523.000.000 acres, .wholly uuea-
enmbemi, and worth at least $100,000,000. From
this the? poulurclaimed that the Pacific Railroads
were the property of the people, and not of pri
vate individuals. He also quoted Article 3of
Ihe new German Constitution, in which the gov
ernment assumes entire control of the railway
hvstciu of the empire, to show that his proposi
tion was not without precedent. Ho favored the
postponement of the subject, and its continuance
upon the official programme.
Mr. Mi’chner, of Philadelphia, moved tho
previous question on the motion to postpone.
The motion prevailed, aud the motion to post
pone was lost.
Mr. Wright, of Chicago, moved, as a substitute,
resolution requesting Congress to consider the
pmprietyof enacting laws for the government of
railv. ay trallic, with a view to relieving the people
tram extortion.
On motion of Mr. Windsor, of Philadelphia, tho
whole matter was indefinitely postponed.
INLAND WATER COMMUNICATION.
The next proposition,the resolution of the Exec
urn t-Council uu the subject of inland comiuuui*
cm ion, was postponed until next year.
COMM UNICATIONS.
Tin* hoard expressed thanks for an invitation to
v:.'it the Vuirsiu Iron Works, but could not name
the date of acceptance, and received a commuai
<-aiii n fioni citizens of Nashville inviting the
lioai*. to xi'i.ii its next annual meeting in that
cjiy, v.Lich vras referred to the Executive Coun
cil.
**ORTIIKUK WATER-UXE.
Mr. Vrlcht, of Chicago, moved to iadoHnitclv
pohlpone cnuMderuDuu of the subject of the north
ern wj tor-hue.
Mr. Thomas, of Dubuque, urged that the sub
ject be taken up in Us order and acted ou by the
board. The proposition, emanating from the Du
buque Board of Trade, and continued from the
last annual meeting, embodies au appeal to Coa
trrefs to push forward the Fox and Wisconsin
Itiver improvements; to aid in opaumg a canal
around the Falls of Niagara, and to afford such
other facilities as may be necessary to stimulate
the speedy construction of all parts of tho work
on the proposed through water-line from the
tlu-Msidpiii Diver to the Atlantic.
Mr. Monroe, of Dubuque, spoke earnestly
against the passing overol a matter of so much
importance to the people of tho Northwest as
the improvement of the Fox and Wisconsin
Divers, and the establishment of through water
ct'n.u-;uacaUou bevvteeu the Mississippi Elver
and Lnke Michigan at Green Bay. He accused
Chicago cf trying to defeat the proposition in or
der that she might continue to receive and dis
tribute the produce of the Northwest, and ex
pressed the hope that the board (would not en
dorse any such selfish notions.
Mr. Atkinson, of Boston, said that, inasmuch as
the Northwest was so great and prosperous, ho
trusted that she would be enabled to cut her own
channels of commerce. He therefore moved tho
previous question, on the motion to indefinitely
postpone.
A call of tho house showed a quorum not
voting.
In order that a direct vote on the proposition
might bo bad, Mr, Wright withdrew lus motion to
postpone.
A vote was taken on tho first proposition, tho
Fox and Wisconsin River improvement, but it
was found that no quorum voted. The calling of
the roll showed that a quorum was not present.
The board therefore took a resess until 2 o'clock.
On re-assembling. Mr. Thomas, of Dubuque,
moved to lay the subject on the table temporari
ly, and the motion prevailed.
CIIESAPEAJvE AND DELAWARE SHIP-CANAL.
The next proposition was the consideration of
tho Chesapeake and Delaware ship-canal, sub
mitted by the Baltimore Board of Trade.
Mr. Kirkhead, of Baltimore, offered a resolu
tion to the effect that, whereas, as the construc
tion of a ship-canal between tho Delaware and
Chesapeake Bay would reduce by 183 miles tho
distance from the West to the seaboard, there
fore, directing that Congress be memorialized to
take a survey of the route, and if it be found
practicable and desirable that such a canal bs
constructed
Mr. Thompson, of B iltimore/ gave some statis
tics showing the advantages el Baltimore over
NewY’ork, as a harbor, both in tho matter of
cheap coal and in reduced wharf expenses, and
also by reason of the lessened distance to Euro
pean ports.
Mr. Wetheio'l offered an amendment to tho ef
fect that the beard does not commit itself to the
project, and does not look to the government for
any expenditure beyond that required to make
tho necessary survey.
Mr. Wright, of Chicago, did not consider it
within the province of the hoard to take up and
advance special or sectional interests, and ho
opposed this piopoti'ion on that ground.
Mr. Atkinson suggested that if the matter was
of so much importance to Philadelphia and Bal
timore those two cities should undertake the ex
pense of a survey.
Mr- Opdyko, ol New York, fully coincided with
Mr. Wright’s views, as did also Mr. McLaren, of
Milwaukee, and Mr. Windsor, of Philadelphia.
Messi 8. Kirkhead, of Baltimore, Btannard, of
St. Louis, Chandler, of Boston, Thomas, of Du
buque, Wcthe;e 1, ot Philadelphia, and Shryock,
of St. Louis, spoke in favor of the proposition.
The ayes and noes wore called on tho proposi
tion as amended, and resulted in a tie vote. 2.1 to
25, and it was declared lost from not having re
ceived, the requisite majority.
WAREHOUSE RECEIPTS.
Mr. Taylor, of Cincinnati, moved the appoint
ment of a committee of five, consisting of Messrs.
Holland. Wright, Plutner, Michener and Hilton,
to consider the subject of warehouse receipt*.
The motion prevailed.
The board then adjourned until 10 o’clock to
morrow morning.
BANQUET.
In the evening a grand banquet, tendered by
the Union Merchants’ Exchange of St. Louis to
the National Board of Trade, was hold at. the
Southern Hotel. Speeches, toasts, and a cordial
interchange of sociil courtesies, were tho order
of the evening, and the affair passed off most
pleasantly.

public may thank Mr. Moss for the complete rev
olution in the trade made by him In this citv.
There is no necessity of smoking domestics, as lie

The latent News from Silver Island,
From the Diilnth (ilinm) Tribune, Nov. 30.
Mr. William Brull', of London, England, is
ia tbe city, on bis return from Silver Island,
whither bo went with our fellow-townsman,
Dr. ■\Valbank, and Mr. Isaac I. Moore, of Su
perior. Wo are informed that, on behalf of
a number of English capitalists, whom bo
represents bo will, if he finds tbe titles per
fect, invest about $200,000 iu mineral lands
in tbe vicinity of Silver Island, and that Dr.
Walbank.on account of bis practical knowl
edge of mining and minerals, is to bo given
a chance with them.
Mr. BniiT and Dr. Walbauk confirm all
that lias been said by others as to tbo won
derful richness of the mines of that region.
At the Silver Island mine, the quantity of
the precious metal which is daily dug out is
limited only by tbe force that they are en
abled to employ. Tbe quantity of silver
seems inexhaustible, and there is every
reason to believe that during tbe coming
winter the ore which they will
get .out will bo worth several mil
lions of dollars. Tbo Shuniaw and Bock
mines are also looking splendidly. The
number of miners and laborers employed in
and about tbe various mines is about 450.
Gold bearing quartz has been found iu tbe
vicinity, that is worth tbe enormous sum of
SO,OOO per ton. As tbe coniidence in tbo
richness of tbo mines increase, tbe excite
ment increases. One man is having 40,000
acres surveyed, which be baspurchasedfrom
tbe Canadian Government at SI.OO per acre.
A great deal of this laud lies back from tbe
lake, from 50 to 100 miles.
The total population in tbe vicinity of tho
mines is about S00; but Captain Frue, the
Superintendent of tbo Silver Island mine,
who has always been regarded as exceed
ingly careful about allowing exaggerated re
ports or ideas to go out respecting tbe, mines,
is reported to have said that bo confidently
expects that in one j’ear from this time that
region will have apopulation of not less than
100,000! Whether his “great expectations”
will bo fully realized is perhaps somewhat
problematical; but, that there will bo an im
mense rush to that section of country in tbo
spring, does not admit of a doubt; for, cer
tain it is, that tbe silver mines near Thunder
Bay, equal, if not surpass, in richness any
other mines heretofore discovered tbo Ameri
can continent —those of Mexico, even, not ex
cepted. Exactly what tbo gold mines iu that
vicinity will amount to is, as yet, uncertain:
but as to the immense quantities of silver
there, no doubt whatever can bo entertained,
and that, of itself, will bo sufficient to cause
fortune-buuters next year to liopk thither by
tbe thousand.
Biticr Beer.
Wo arc all familiar with the celebrated
beverage known as “Bass 7 ale. 77 But it ap
pears that Mr. Boss not only brews good ale;
be also considers that it is a«splondid moral
agent as well as a healthful tonic. Ho has
been making a speech thereon, and tho Lou
don. Spectator thus notices it:
Mr. Bass takes tho bull by the horns with a
vengeance. lie told the Derbyshire Licensed
ictuallcrs, on Wednesday, that the publican’s
trade was as good as a baker’s and butcher’s
mat more people wore killed by over
eating than over-drinking; it is true that
gluttony, once a deadly sin, is now
never denounced among us; and that
THE CHICAGO TKIBEKE;
vhe wished people wbnld drink twice as much as
they do—or his owztale, wb.presame. He'did not
even believe tbat.drink Was a cause of immoral-
ity, but rather a Vent for the desire of excite-;
ment; the Mohammedans and'
Hindoos, being distinctly worse Hi»n the «iringing
peoples* Scotch and Bwe dee. That is poshing a
sound argument a little too far. Mr. Bass’'no
tion seems to be that we want a beer-shop for ev
ery 2CO people, and then may refuse to give more
licenses; but wo suspect, for all his bravery, he
will consent to some compromise. Suppose we
say a shop lor each thousand souls, and no more
licenses.”

auction sale of 20,000 cases of woollen shawls on
Thursday showed that the prices of woollen
goods must open higher in consequence of greas
scarcity and advancing prices of raw material.
Manufacturers having bought up all the X and
No. 1 grade of wool on hand, have now swept tho
market of all Texas and California descriptions,
and are buying all XX to be bad at f»5aCGc,
while for selected Ohio 70c is now asked.
In cotton staples few changes; Continental D,
brown sheetings, reduced to 14 l-2c, while all other
brands, both brown, bleached, and colored are
steady, and stocks said to be light. All bleached
goods below 12c are reported to be scarce. Medi
um and fine grades aro steady, and, if.shaded a
little, jobbers stand ready to purchase liberally,
but agents are not disposed to make much, if any,
concession.
