A New Enterprise---The Passage Around
Cane Horn.

The Journal of Commerce says that a com
pany has been recently formed in New York
city, which proposes to obviate the delays,
dangers. and difficulties of the passage round
Cape Horn, by establishing line of power
lul tug steamers to tow vessels from ocean to
ocean through the Straits of Magellan and
thatprovlded the government of Chile agrees
10 certain proposals which the company has
Already addressed to them, steps will be in-
nedlately taken to carry the design into ex-
ecuton The projectors of the design are
very sanguiEe Of its success and assured of
its beneficial results They assert that the
passage of the Straits may be made quickly
and safely by vessels of any tonnage, with
the assistance of steam tugs, and thew calcu.
late that the saving of time to vessels pass
ing the Straits as compared with doubling
the Cape" would, on an average, be fully
twenty days, basing their calculation on
Lieut.. Maurys statement that the average
time required for rounding Cape Horn is 25
days. They calculate that the saving of 20
days in interest and insurance on vessels and
cargoes, and the wear and tear ofvessels, &C.,
would be not less than 81 O,000.
In the companys memorial recommending
their project to the favor of the Chilian gov
ernment, variety of points are noticed, il.
lustratiye of the great advantages it will con-
fer, not only on Chile, but on the commercial
community of the world The colonization
Of the Northern Coast of the Straits by Chi
llans, the working of the extensive deposits of
coal in the neighborhood of Punta Arenas,
and the development of the now dormant re-
sources of the country bordering on the Straits
of Magellan. are alluded to as among the i'm
mediate results of the establishment of tug
steamers, because the feet of about 500 steam
ers which would pass the straits annually,
would create market for wood, coal, water,
provisions, and other articles of primary ne
eessity. and give employment to vast num-
Der ofpersons.
The conditions which the company require
the Chilian government to grant are
l. The payment of an annual subsidy of
$4,000 for ten years, and then of $4,000
for an additional term of ten years.
3 lease at a nominal rate Of all the coal
deposits at Punta Arenas for ten years.
). grant IN perpetuity Of the lands re.
qulred for stations along the route.
4. a lease for ten years, at nominal rate,
of such wood lands as may be required for
the company's use, and grant in perpetuity
of all lands cleared by the company.
5. The subsidy to be paid from the date of
the arrival of the first tug steamer at the
Straits.
We are informed that the foregoing project
has been submitted to many influential par
ties connected with our shipping interests,
and that it has generally met with a very
warm approval. Captain Ezra Nye, the we'll
known shipmaster, is understood to be prom.
inently connected with the enterprise

On! WHISTLE AND Ill COME TO YOU MY
LAD.-This piquanty pretty Scotch ballad
had an amusing Illustration not long ago, in
our city, that afforded hearty laugh to the
merry circle to whom it was related.
The young and charming wife of literary
gentleman belonging TO the editorial corps of
one Of our best dailies, found 1t necessary
for the preservation of the peace of mind of
the family in which they boarded-to sit up
for the purpose of opening the doubly barred
door for her liege lord and loving master,
said family being of that numerous class who
fear the thieves do break through and
steal, and who would view as evidence of
insanity the daring that would suggest leav-
ing the treasures of their domicil to the
mercy of night key
But the loving lady feared being overtaken
by the soft wooing of Morpheus, but she
knew a spell that would break any bondage
in which her senses might be bound, and so
she gave directions accordingly, to her de-
parting sposo.
Do not ring, dear, for that would never
rouse me-but as you turn the corner, whis-
tie the charming air that has always been
the happy refrain Of our lives, and by the
time your feet mount the steps you will find
the door open y
And so as the "wee sma' hours" came on,
the clear whistle was whistled, the door was
opened, and the husband entered OF course
neither dreamed of scandal, both relgiously
believing in the duty Of minding their own
business.
But one day an anonymous note was re-
ceived directed TO the lady of the house, and
10y chance was handed to the wife in ques-
tion. To her amazement she read az follows:
"MADAM: We have thought it our duty to
inform you that every night, between the
hours OF midnight and two o'clock in the
morning a person of gentlemanly appear.
ance and respectable bearing comes down the
street whisting a certain air, when some one
in your house evidently answering this pre-.
concerted signal, cautiously admits him.
Considering that the character of your house
is dear to you, We have acquainted you with
these facts.
YoUR FRIENDS AND NEGHBoRs."
If ever an appreciative peal of laughter
shook that dining-room, it was when the con-
tents Of this friendly note were made public.
Husband didn't stop his whistling, however,
or wife her happy alacrity in responding to
its cadenced call Neighbors and friends
probably became weary of their nocturnal
watchings, and like all undeseryed scandals,
this one died natural death.-N Y atlas.
