On Monday last General Merrilt de livered the keys of the largest Custom House in America to Judge W. H. Robertson, with an appropriate speech, which was quite lengthy. They were mutually complimentary and amicable. General Merritt in addressing his suc cessor said: -;,4 . Coming to this office with your large public experience, with your judicial mind, with your calm temper, I know that your administration will be suc cessful. As a personal and political friend I wish you every possible suc cess, and I have no doubt that not only the officers of customs who may be retained , by you, but the entire com munity, will agree with me that there is no loss in consequence of this change, but that on the contrary the service in many respects will be improved. The tendency is to a more strict adherence to public dutiesv The country is hold leg us to greater responsibility. In my transfer to a new field of labor I will not be entirely disconnected with, your office, end so far as I may be able in the position 1 am to occupy, which though not directly connected with the customs service, yet indirectly is so, I will do what I can to aid you in that particular branch of the government that smay come before me in connection with your office.

I have no desire to issue ! instructions with re gard to the manner in which this work is tc be performed, but I venture to forward to you a map on which Pro! Powell has marked in red the bounda ries of the i territories he Considers it best to explore.

He thinks it pro bable that there will be found in glacial and other quarternary deposits, and in tertiarv deposits! of the country ' His reasons for selecting this area are these First It is the area of a large amount of stock raising,! in which a water sup ply on the broad area lying Deiween the streams is imperatively necessary. Again, in this, area the structure is more homogeneous than in any other portion of the United States, so that what is determined' in this area would be of wide value, what could be deter mined in any other portions of the Uni ted States would have only a local val-. ue. I present these suggestions for Tour consideration ' in pursuing your work, witn the request that; yon Willi begin your investigation as near the southern extremity ot "the- section marked on Professor Powell's map as you may think proper and work north erly as far as the' season and timewill admit.; - J i. - The area inarked out by Profes sor Powell is the northern boundary of the United States between the 101st eastern boundary the lOlst longitu dinal line from the northern boundary to the Rio Grande river. The western border follows the eastern border line of the Rocky Mountains, striking south east wardly from the northern bounda ry line to the intersection of the 105th longitudinal line with the 43d line of north latitude, and thence sooth to the Rio Grandest The Rio Urande forms the southern boundary; The area compri ses the western portion Of Dakota.

" - 'v V -!.;' v V:' ', We suppose these two" gentlemen, appointed Commissioners, live near and haye had experience in improving arid lands. It will become one of the most important national questions hew. to make these useless lands productive before .many years. The late Horace Greeley had given a., good! deal of at tention to thb subject of irrigation, for many years before his death. Among his speculations he had plans in regard to the pine barrens of the South Atlantic coast, by putting in deep wells on plantations, pumping ont the water by wind-mills, and leading it in ducts over the - land, making a gar den of now unproductive soil, as they did in the island of Ceylon more than a thousand years ago, and which the English, who hold that island, are now restoring from rains. c v.aivejas .-Mt was tried 3ay of the al alia T body of Professors Lc:. jelectrieatT" 2 ductiotft.
