Prof. J. L. Campbell ami Hon. Isaac D. Dunn have tendered to the governor their lesignatioas as members of the Momence Rocli, commission, io take effect May 1. The other member of the commission, J. S. Kennedy, has not resigned. Messrs; Campbell and Dunn desire to retire from the commission on account of the action of the last legislature in providing that the members of the commission, should give bond to complete the work of removing the obstruction in the Kankakee river with the money already appropriated. A most unreasonable and unjust stipulation, aud their resignation is entirely justifiable, The commissioners had, after endless pains and trouble, succeeded in getting matters into shape where it seemed certain that the $70,000 or SBO,OOO job would be done with the 840,000 appropriaation; and to require them, under such circumstances, to give - the enormous bond required, was unjust aud unreasonable, in the last degree. They were fully justified in resigning.
