SIDEWALKS The last week has given our peo-
Pile fine opportunity Of testing the admirable
operation OF the license system adopted last
spring, which at once created such handsome
f,md to improve our streets aud sidewalks The
improvements made with this so reputably Oh,
tanned fund, have been such MS particularly to ex,
cite the admiration of the friends Of temperance.
No man now daros to venture into the streets in.
,osieated, from tho imminent peril Of being
swamped and drowned in the mud. Thus tenn
pcrance ia promoted, while rum'ellcu are per
mi,tod TO move in the best circles How
much better this than to withhold licenses and
thus degrade them to level with thieves, gam
blers and other volaters Of law

THANKSGIVING There was a fair inquiry for
poultry in the market on Tuesday and Wednes-
day, and we thnl; on Thursday morning good
fat turkey would have commanded handsome
premium, but beyond this we witnessed few spe-
cial evidences that our people were keeping
Thursday as day of-public thanksgiving" We
Eoticed but three stores closed, and when, at ec-
ven, We repaired to the place of public worship"
Il population Of over 5000. Those who were there,
however, Will not soon forget the well conceived
and impressive discourse Of the Rev. Mr.. Heath
on the occasion. 1t was truly "a word in season
and most fifty spoken.
There is wanting an essential element in the
West TO make thanksgiving day that joyful season
Of the old eastern homestead, Of which so many
hallowed memories crowd upon Us at the annual
recurrence Of the day There are few tpportuni-
ties here for those pleasant family reunions that
constitute At once the main feature and charm Of
an eastern thanksgiving fcte Where are the ia
theirs, sisters brothers cousins dc Of most Of the
deuizeus of this western worlli \ tear starts
to many an eye unused to the melting mood,
as the conviction r,ishes upon the owner
that et least on this earth Il reunion is mpo.sible
lire the thanksgiving dinner must be shared
with comparative strangers. There are no sis
trrs from school-brothers from toll grandmo:h-
ers sage, and cousins to the third remoye-msd
With joy, and making the old family mansion ring
with their merry laugh and shout We are all
new beginners here, and i. will take many wears
before tie troupe of hhy cousins, brothers, &c.
will meet in our old homestead to renew to US
in our scar and yellow leaf" the scenes OF three
score years ago But the day will surely come
and with many j. Already here-when even in Il
linos genuins Puritan thanksgiving can DC en-
joyed to It's full

TELEGRAPH UNDER rlGE ArLASriC.-A writer in
the Scientific American, H. l. Stuart, Egg, civil
engineer takes strong ground in favor Of the
prac,icsbty Of submarine telegraph between
America and Europe He proposes to coat four
separate wires in a solid gutta percha cord, one
and three-four,hs Of M inch in diameter, a: d to
sink this by mean. Of anchors, as was done DO.
tween Calais and Dover. lie urges, however,
that the anchors should be heavier than those
used On that occasion,
He says:
IN laying down the line, fifteen ships, Of one
thousand tons, would be required, with at least
four steamers Of fifteen hundred tons, and two
other steamers as tenders. The distance between
Cape Clear, in Ireland, to point about one hun
bred miles above Halifax, is sixteen hundred
miles \ line Of this length, such as it proposed
to employ, would weigh nearly eight thousand
tons, and require SIX hundred anchors. The cost
Of everything, when in complete working order,
is estimated at net over three millions Of dollars
The wire could bG laid down IN twenty days,
and would probably last one hundred years. The
line would be sunk below all anchorage, and be
low all action Of the water, A submarine tele.
graph Of this description has been projected be-
tween England and Irel cd, and, If 1t should sue.
coed, the attempt will DC made IN the broad At.
