The “project 0f a tunnel between England and France id now the subject of-inquiry by o parliamentary committee. It is agreed that there are no engineering difficulties which. cannot be readily overcome, The tunnel can be finished in six years at a cost of thirty millions of dollars, ten millions less than the earlier es-, timates. The distance under the sea is twenty-one miles and the approaches on each side will increase the entire length to nearly thirty miles. Sir John Harkshaw, the enand freight traffic would easily pay a dividend of six per oe on the-entire cost of the tunnel, allowing forty per cent of the gross receipts for working expenses, ‘The only obstaprise is the nervous timidity of the Englishmen, including peers and, statesmen, soldiers and journalists, that a crafty enemy might take advantage of this route for the conquest of Britain. This fear seems perfectly silly, for nothing would be essier than to provide means for flooding the tunnel‘ at a moment's warning. Of course, an invading force large enough to be formidable could not be gottogether for the conquest of England in a few minutes, nor witrout attracting some attention from the thousands of travelers who will be passing every day. A short canal from the sea level to the line of the tunnel, with gates under the control of a British officer under order from the wer department would afford means of sealing up the tunnel, making as absolutely safe against an enemy as if no pathway under the sea had been made, The flooding of the tunnel would not be of a very expensive nature. Seventy or a hundred million gallons of water would fill it, and that amount could easily be pumped out and the tunnel cleared again for teaffic in ten days. An Old Mine. The Virginia Enterprise tells about amine that has been found in the mountains near Salsburg, Austria, which gives indications of having
been occupied and abandoned at Iéast 2,000 years ago. It contains a large and confused mass of timbers, which were used for support, and a number of miners’ implements. The timbers were notched and sharpened, but were subject to inundation, and left in confused heaps. The implements were mainly wooden shovels, ax-handles, etc. Among the relics, also, was a basket of untanned rawhide, a piece of cloth woven of coarse wool, the fiber of which is even, and still in good preservation and a torch bound together with flax fiber. The probabilities are that the ancient salt miners were overtaken by the flooding of the mine, as mummified bodies have been discovered, also. The find seems to have belonged to the pre-Roman times; the ax handles were evidently used for bronze axes, specimens of which have been found upon the surface of the mountains. The relics are of high order, the basket being superior eveto some that were used in the early historic times; Joun L. Sunivan has a fight at Albany Thursday with Steve Taylor. Steve fell out like a nut from a tree, The time was six minutes, Sullivan says he will open a saloon in Boston and fight no more, THE meanest man we have heard of this season is the fellow who telegraphed his sympathy to a friend who had lost everything in speculation, and made him pay for the message.
