PITTSBURGH POST.
WEDNESDAY MORNING
[Fur the Pittsburgh Morning root.;
Improvement of the Ohio.
Messes. Enrrons :—As the subjeCt of improv
ing che,,r:tfii.o river has been much discussed in
this community, and it is exceedingly important
that, the best plan be adopted, I would thank you
to publish the enclored paper, which I have just
received from Mr. Fillet. I will add here that the
objections he makes to locks and dams are in my
opinion well taken. During a dry season it
would be impossible to keep the dams full of
water. the leakage and evaporation would pre
vent The system be recommends of forming
large reservoirs in the mountains, or on the head
water of the tributaries, I deem entirely practi
cable, and altogether the most feasible plan yet
offered: and although I fear the cost would ex
ceed Id , estimate, yet it will certainly fall far
below'4iie cost of the locks and dams, and re
quire much less to keep up the repairs.
Mr. Ellet has given this subject much conaide
rabon : the ,ugge , ti,m, he makes are valu'.ble,
he carefully examined by all inter
ested in thig Great awl important work.
Respectfully yours.

If the riser fed from reservoirs, the channel

will be room in the channel for other boats to puss

will sometimes be driven carelessly against the works,

bank to bank, to the distance of two or three, and at
times, even to the distance of five milersfrom the
locks. On the canals of this country, we have often
witnessed such sights, on a smaller scale. In one
instance, sores miles of canal boats blocked up the
the entire breadth of the Erie canal, before the breach
which stopped their progress could 'be- repaired:
But the boats and looks of a canal are of manageable
dimensions, and nearly three hundred boats can be
let through a well appointed lock in a day..' 4‘. pair
of coal boats, or a raft, would oecupy' . tho hinge locks
which will he required to pass the Ohio river steam
boats, more than an hour. It is indeed vary doubt
ful whether a raft which would fill one of these locks,
and corer therefore more than half an acre of
surface, could be let through and got ont of•the , way
in less than three &tura. But, assuming that the
average time for a pair of coal boatis Cr a raft, would
be an hour, to pass 500 of them throttgh 'a; tattle
lock, working day and night, would consume atleast
ten days, and during that ten days, at certain seasons
of the year, as many more would approach and
struggle to get through, as the way might be cleared
for them. Small, comparatively, as is the present
trade of the Monongahela, and rapidly as the smaller
locks there required can ho worked, the, descending.
coal fiats frequently shut off the haVigation for .
ascending steamers on that river for three or. four
days in succession.
nth. The cost of the fifty dams and one hawked!
hi-ks which it is proposed to build on the Ohio de
duced from the ascertained root of the Monongahela
Improvement,---with a proper allowance for the in •
creased length of the dams, the increased lengtl,
width and height of the locks, and the increased value
of labor and materials since thst ,tverit-eraitcomplqted,
. dive years ago,—would he about twenty-five millions
sif loiters.
The cost of procuring a fire feet navigation by means
of r”.ervw'rs on the tributaries, ought not to exceed
two of dollars.
Is it better to expend twenty-five millions and oh.'
=tract the channel of the Ohio by fifty dams, during
vine months of the year, when the navigation is per
fect, or to pay two otillf,,ng to remove the obstruc
tions caused by low water during three months of
drouth?
10th. Almnyt every city on the Ohio is built in
part on soil subject to be overflowed. The censtrue
tion of dams below these cities will increase the
heights of the floods, and the depths and the frequen
cy of the overflows.
Dams in the mountains may be placed where no
valuable property will be covered by the reservoirs,
and they cannot fail, by retaining a portion of the
surplus water, to reduce, instead of increasing the
height and destructive power of the floods on the
river.
11th. Darns across the Ohio, will set the water up
into the mouths of a❑ the tributaries, great and
small. which empty into its channel. On these trib
utaries arc valuable millsand mill privileges, which
will be submerged, even in low•water r and destroyed
by the dams.
The reservoirs in the mountains will destroy no
mills or water power, but, on the contrary, .they
will create vast and never failing water power
wherever the dams which form the reservoirs aro
placed.
12th. The advocates of lock and dams cannot be
opposed to reservoirs, nor deny the practicability of
obtaining wati_r enough by that means to feed the
Ohio. They,munmt take this ground, for every dam
they propose% build will form a reservoir of immense
size, but one which i not available, because it is in
the wrong place. Th.: fifty dams which they pro
pore to raise on the Ohio, will form reservoirs in the
riser itself, covering, in the aggregate, a .space. of
over (art hundred • quart. miles, and holding three
times as much water as would be needed, if they were
',laced where they ought to be, in the mountains, to
afford a five feet navigation, the year round, from
Pittsburgh to Cairo.
To avoid forming reservoirs in the mountains.
where they will do great good, they propose to make
pools in the river, where they will do great harm.
These pools in the river will contain fully three times
as much water as treed be discharged from the moun
tains to support the navigation throughout the BUM
suer. And. after the Meals are mode in the river, and
the navigation has been destroyed by' the dams that
form them, great reservoirs in the mountains will
still by required to supply these pools with water.
Is it not better, I ask, to make the reservoirs in
the mountains ut once, and dispense with the pools in
the river altogether 7 O •
nth. The darns which it is proposed to construct
on the Ohio will convert the channel of that tiver into
fifty stagnant and pestilential ponds, endangering
the healthfulness and diminishing the population of
its valley.
High dams in the mountains will form deep lakes
its the rock-hound gorges. These lakes will be filled
with coil water in the winter and spring. This wa
ter will retain its coolness until it is needed for nav
igation, and then gush forth in refreshing torrents,
whirls will temper the heats of midsummer on the
immediate herders of the river.
The locks and dams will destroy the navigation of
the river when it is in the best condition, and impair
the healthfulness of its shores when they are least
sal übri rms.

The rrservoirs in the mountains will improve the
navigation when it most needs improvement, give
motion to the river when its waters are stagnant,
supply the cities on its banks with a more whole•
some beverage, and wash out, as far as fresh water
can d, that work, the causes of malaria.
I object, therefore, to locks and dams on the Ohio.
I object to them be,t
cause the river can be improved
by a plan which will leave its channel unimpaired
and unobstructed ; which will improve the navigation
of its tributaries, While it improves that of the river
itself: which will tend to diminish the height - nnd de
struction produced by the timls, while it increases
the depth of the channel in SOH-SODS of drought.
Which will create immense water power in the moon.
tains, without destroying the water power near the
ricer. Which will pour a healthful current of cool
water into the channel from the reservoirs in the
mountains, instead of converting its living stream
into putrid pools. Which eau be used to carry, away
the ice that obstructs the navigation in the wintet,
while it overcomes the effect of the drought in the
summer. Which will improve the health, while it
increases th t wealth of the country. Which will do
sonic paw( to every interest, and injure ngne.
This is the plan which I oiler as a substitute for
locks and dams on the Ohio.
It is not a speculative plan. it is based on careful
measurements of the volume of water flowing down
the Ohio, day by day, and every day for a period of
six years. It is the conclusion which results from
mien to, laborious and appropriate investigations.
This plan, and the facts on which it rests, have
been given to the public in a work which has received
the approbation and concurrence of scientific minds
throughout the country.
Is it not, then, worthy the attention of that great
foniintinity of business men which has put the loco
motive in motion on the mountain tops, and filled the
navigable rivers of the West with magnificent steam-
ers
I have done my share of the work. 1 have pro
jected the plan. I have measured the discharge of
the river. I have demonstrated the practicability of
the scheme, without aid or encouragement, and I
ask now only that they who arc to be the most bone
fitted by the work shall assist in its execution.,
