The Superintendent of the Carolina Cen tral Railway was arrested on a peace war rant, issued by Justice Cassidey, on Wed nesday evening, and required to give bond in the sum of $500 to keep the peace and for his personal appearance at the present term of the Superior. Court. The arrest was made on the affidavit of Mr. J. O.

Yesterday morning Mr. Thos. Evans, of the firth of J. R. Blossom & Evans, made affidavit before Justice Cassidey, charging the Superintendent and other officials and employees of the road With forcible tres pass upon their property, the. work of lay ing the tra'ck or preparing to lay it, through the same, having been actually commenced. These arrests were made on the same grounds as above recited, and the defend ants were required to give j security in the sum Of $200 for their appearance before the present term of the Superior Court. The track referred to is the one proposed to connect the new depot of the; company with the main line. ' t j s Fire In tola County, j ; jj The outhouses on the premises of Mr. Fred.

BAR AND RIVER IMPROVER ENT, Wilmington, N. C, Jan. 19, 1375. Col. Wm. L. DeRosset, President of Chamber of Commerce r Sir: Four days, from the 14th to the 17lh instant, inclusive, have been employed by your- committee in a tour of inspection of tue harbor and its improvements. Since our visit on the 8th of October last (reported on the 22d) a third 'dredge- has -been brought into - service and commenced operations upon the shoals above Big Island, on the 16th of December, since which time she has been constantly at work with apparent good results, the chan nel over these shoals being now reported much improved. The dredge at work upon Snow March channel seems . to be pretty . generally en gaged, but apparently not very effective, having accomplished but little of percepti ble' results. It was expected, we believe, that the contract for opening this channel would have been completed by or before this time. i No work has been done at Federal Point and no perceptible change in the status of affairs there. Zeke's Island appears to be growing, as also the beach in front ot the breakwater, but the point of beach just beyond the breakwater is very much encroached upon, which,- with the long line of narrow beach extending quite to Smith s . Island,. we re gard as in a very precarious if not danger ous condition, requiring attention. Wt feel that we cannot too strongly urge the importance of some steps being taken for building up this beach and strengthening it by the cultivation of grass and other shrubbery. The upper swash -across the beach (of the two alluded to in our last report) is no worse than it was, and has no dangerous appearance. 1 He lower one is very near ly closed, and has the appearance of being bare at low tide. , . Bald Head point has, been considerably encroached upon, but uot so much as Was feared ; the point has been thrown around into a hook, leaving a deep pocket which is in line with the straight, shore of Smith's Island up to Bald Head creek, leaving auiie a narrow neck of beach to separate it from the ocean, the waves of which break over upon very high tides, there seems no pressure upon this neck by the inside current, which passes outside of the point, the real danger being from the ocean waves opening a passage through the pocket. which would sweep away the entire point The suction dredge Woodbury, seems to be doing effective service of late, upon Bald Head channel, although there may not prob ably be much increase in the depth of water over what was last reported, rne general character of the channel was very greatly improvea, ooui in wium aau Biruiguiuess, seeming to have concentrated all tne con flicting currents of the outlet We have been informed by pilots that a cut-off slue has been opened across the up per end of the Middle Ground Shoals (known as Jo Burch Shoal) from near the rip buoy of the western channel in the direction of the outer buoy of the Bald Head channel: and. furthermore, that a consider able portion of the upper point of this shoal has been carried away. , If these reports should prove true, it would seem that , the channel is disposed . to straighten Itself into the';fack of the old eastern channel; which pe believe passed out a little east of south (instead of south west, as the present channel does,) and no doubt was the original direction given it by nature, i From: all the lights before us we have no hesitation in saying that vessels of 15J feet draught can pass in and out with ease upon ordinary high tides, and upon Spring tides one foot more may pass with perfect ease, while ordinary vessels of 12 feet may beat through at will This class of vessels, which includes our regular lines ox steamships, WHOLE NO. 2,277. need not now be detained by tides anywhere between Wilmington and the ocean. -f And now that the main outlet is being en arged and adapting itself to the more easy egress of an increased volume of the river's water, it would seem appropriate to com mence operations for checking the flow of water out of; New Inlet, and Bend it down to assist in scouring out the main outlet: and, in view of this object, we respectfully suggest to the Chamber the propriety of taking such steps towards securing a lull appropriation for this work from the pres ent Congress, as in its judgment may seem necessary and proper.
