How TO Prevent JAM.-Among the
bills which have just received the sanction Of
Parliament, there is one for the purpose Of
making railway under ground from the
lower end of Edgeware Road, London, to the
Kings Cross. The line will, for the most
part, run beneath the New road. The esti-
mated capital for the work is fS00, 900. The
length of the underground railway will be
less than two miles and half There will
be stations at very short distances-say at
every quarter Of mile; and it is intended
that the charges shall be so moderate that
the omnibusses running the New road will
not have q chance against their subierranean
rival. The charge for the whole distance in
the first class will be only two pence. Eve
ry car will be abundantly lighted. II is ex-
pected that the line will be in operation in
little more than twelve months.

The President at Church.

A correspondent of the Philadelphia Pres
byterian, spending Sabbath in Washington,
thus describes President Pierce at church:
The Rev. Mr.. Baird, of South Carolina,
preached plain, earnest discourse in the
morning. In the afternoon attended at the
same place of worship. The President of the
United States, although not evidently expect
ed by the congregation, was present at this
second service, he being stated hearcr
elsewhere. There was simple majesty. to
my own mind, very impressive, in the fact
that the Chief Magistrate of this mighty na-
tion should thus come alone and unattended
to the house of God, and sit down among
the humblest Of the people. so unostentatious-
ly that It was impossible for me, a stranger,
to single him out He was pointed out to me
as the congregation retired; and he went as
he came, unattended, and believe, without
carriage, for saw none minglIng with the
throng on the sidewalk, as he wended his
way back to the White House.
President Pierce is refined, polished
looking man; and his countenance is indica-
tive Of great sagaciiy and decision. His
lously neat; his hair arranged in the most
perfect order; in person he is, should
judge, about FIVE feet, ten inches high. So
far as personal appearance goes, there is no
American who would not look upon the man
with pride.
! am told that he is a careful observer of
the Sabbath-refuses to receive visitors, and
refuses to look into any correspondence on
that day; is constaat attendant on public
worship; and his influence here in favor Of
sound morals and religion is strong and deci-
ded. The appearance of the President yes
terday was strikingly deyout; his attention
was given closely 10 the sermon, and at one
passage, in which the preacher spoke Of the
manner in which God overrules the Affections
and trials of men, he was observed to shed
tears. May God give him the garment of
praise for the spirit Of heaviness!

A Dog Story.

The following we'll authenticated dog sto-
ry is worth telling: A provision dealer of
this city, who lives in Somcrvile, owns two
dogs, one a largo and stout Newfoundlander,
and the other much smaller dog. Fre-
quen'ly the pro yision dealer walks to this
city, and is usually accompanied by the small
dog. Near East Cambridge tho dog had
been often attacked and bitten by a large
dog of that vicinity. The Newfoundland
dog has never been In the habit of accompa-
nying his master. but the other day, the gen.
tieman found, after starting for the city with
his small dog, that the Newfoundlander was
also following him. He drove him back
twice, and finally supposed he had gone
home, On reaching East Cambridge, the
little dogs old enemy made his appearance
and commenced his usual attack, but the
little cur. instead of running as was his Gus
tom, this time turned upon his enemy and
showed fight. The mystery of this courngc
was' however, soon explained, for directly
came bounding towards the combatants, the
little dogs old friend the twice driven back
NewfoundlaDder, and the two Somcrville
dogs together turned 10 and gave the East
Cambridge bully thorough trouncinp.-
This accomplished, tho little dog went on
his way rejoicing to Boston, while the New
foundlander turned on his tracks and trottcd
towards SOmerville, saying, no doubt, as well
ms dog can say-'There, sir, now learn to let
a little fellow, half your size, alone, when
he goes by your kennel, or you'll get il
worse next time. ."-Boston Journal.
