MAGNIFICENT PRoJEcT.-The Ia
test project of the people Of Chicago
is one to connect the waters of Lake
Michigan with those of the Gulf of
Mexico by an uninterrupted channel
for steamboats, navigation, The orig
inal scheme of the Illinois and Micha.
gan Canal when first projected by
the State Government of Illinois,
comprised a ship canal of sufficient ca
pacity to float the largest class of YES
sells that could navigate the Illinois
river, and a considerable portion of
the work was constructed upon the
plan, but upon the failure ofthe means
the design was given up, and the
work completed for ordinary canal
boats only. Now, however, that Chi
cago has become great and flourish
ing city, centralizipg the capital COM
merce and interests of a vast region
the idea is again revived for a two.
fold purpose; first, to serve the ends
of commerce t; and second, to carry off
the drainage Of the city of Chicago,
and thus improve its sanitary condi-
tion. There are two propositions hav-
ing these objects. One is to cut the
summit of the Illinois and Michigan
Canal, while the other is to make
new chanel through Mud Lake to
Aux PLANES river, and then to deep
en- the chanel Of that stream sufficient
ly to answer the purpose.

The LADY ELeIN's MAIL BAG Ron
BED.-The Milwaukee Ners, of the
18th, says:
Near the spot where the body Of
McQuake was found, officer Tenbro-
eek discovered a number of newspa-
pers, in wrappers, addressed to vari-
Gus parties, and also post bill. These
proved to have been a portion of the
contents Of the United States mail
bag that was on board the Lady e.
gin. The bag, when made up at the
post Office, contained six letters, all
addressed to the post Office at Whit
tlesey, Wisconsin.
Neither the mail bag, nor any por-
ton Of the letters could be discovered
near the spot where the newspapers
were picked up. They were about
one hundred feet from the water, in a
spot where the waves could not have
deposited them, and it is regarded as
quite impossible that the bag could
have been broken open by any action
Of the waves. The mail has undoubt-
edly been robbed 10y some of the
numerous thieves who made them.
selves so busy in plundering the bag
gage and rifiing the pockets of the
dead.
Among the persons who have been
arrested upon the charge of plunder-
ing the dead are z. w. Thomas and
Charles Russell, Of Evanstown. They
are suspected Of having robbed the
body and trunk Of the barkeeper
Of the Lady Elgin, Mr.. Lacy, of
several thousand dollars in gold and
bills. 1t was known that Mr.. Lacy
had, when he left Chicago, Friday
night, two or three thousand dollars
in bills in his coat pocket, and con-
siderable amount Of gold in a belt,
which was in bis trunk. MFR. Lacy was
drowned, but his trunk was found in
the possession Of Thomas and Russell,
broken open, and the belt robbed Of
all its contents. They are locked up
in Jail in Chicago, to await an investi-
cation.

COLLISION AT THE SOUTHWEST PAss.-We
learn from Captain Talbot, Of the steam
ship Austin. from Brazos Santiago and
1ndianols, that his vessel crossed the Bar
Monday morning, at l21I o'clock, and that
about an hour afterwards, when about one
hundred miles below the city, and still in
the Southwest Pass, he came in collision
with the stesm-tug Tuscorora, which was
descending the river with the schooners
Dewdrop and General Garibaldi in tow
Both schooners lost their bowsprits, and
wore otherwise damaged, and two or three
of their crews were slightly injured. The
Austin had hole cut through her port
side, 'just above tho wster-line, and her
port wheel and wheelhousc entirely carried
away. The schooners were brought up to
the city by the Tuscarors, and the Austin
was brought up by the towboat Conquer
er. She will discharge her freight and 20

ANEcporE OF STEPHEN Gn.pp-

ANEcDoTE OF STEPHEN GIsARD.-
Stephen Girard, who died in Pbila-
delphia some twenty years ago,
leaving q fortune of fifteen million
dollars, had q favorite clerk, and
he always said "he intended to do
well by Ben Lippincott." So when
Ben got to be twenty-one, be ex-
pected to hear the Governor say
something of bis future prospects,
and perhaps lend helping hand in
starting him in the world. But the
old fox carefully y avoided the sub
.ject. Ben mustered courage. 81
suppose | am now free, sir" said
lie, "and l thought / would say
something to you as to my course.
What do you think | had better
dof" "Yes, yes, know you are"
said the old millionaire, land my
advice is that you go and learn the
cooper's trade"
This application Of ice nearly
froze Ben out, but recovering his
equilibrium, he said if Mr.. Girard
was in earnest he would do so. 81
am in earnest" and Ben forthwith
sought the best cooper in Spring
Garden, became an apprentice, and
in due time could make as good a
barrel as the best. lie announced
to old Stephen that he had gradua-
ted, and was ready to set up busi-
ness. The old man seemed graft
fed, and Immediately ordered three
of the best barrels he could turn
out. Ben did his prettiest, and
wheeled them up TO the old mans
counting-room. Old Girard pro-
nounced them first-rate, and de-
manded the price. "One dollar"
said Ben. "is as low as / can live
by" Cheap enough-make out
your bill"
The bill was made out, and Old
Steve settled it with a check for
$50, 900, which he mpanied with
this little moral to the story /:
There, take that, and invest it in
the best manner, and if you are un-
fortunate and lose it, you will have
a good trade to fall back upon,
which will afford you a good liv-
ing"

DEGRADING THE GOVERNOR OF DA.
MAscUs.-The Governor Of Damascus
was publicly degraded at CONSTANT
nople, on the 9th ult., by order of the
Sultan. A letter to the N. Y. World,
says:
The ceremony was quite imposing.
He was one of the eighty-five great
Pacbss Of the Empire. He was taken
to the great square in front Of the
war department. Some thousands OF
troops were assembled in the form Of
hollow square, with many high Off
GERS, military and civil. The Pacha
was led into the centre of this square.
The imperial order was then read,
after which his brass fez button, his
sword, etc., were roughly torn off from
hhm, and it WAS loudly proclaimed
that Ahmet, late Pacbs, Governor
General Of the province Of Damascus,
and commsnder-in chief of the army
Of Arabistan, was now degraded, strip
ped Of all rank and offices, and redu.
ced to the rank Of common soldier.
he was then ignominiously marched
off to prison by two or three cavasses,
whence he was sent to Beirut to be
tried for his life.

THE MONEY KING.

n rrenCu Wrlter tnuS speaks vi
the Baron James Rothschild
Monsieur de Rotbschild is an in.
defatigable worker. He rises early,
looks after his own affairs himself.
He receives visitors after he has
prepared the days work for his
myrmidons. On certain points he
is unbending, but he is good man,
though not easily moved. He has
the perspicacity of man who has
made the largest fortune in Europe.
His views on financial matters are
always sound; he has a genius for
forseeing events. His judgment
of men is unerring, and, consequent
ly, he knows with whom and how
to deal. Nothing turns him aside
from a purpose he has once formed:
his views are always clear, and Tor
chilly expressed. The hours devo-
ted by him to work are occupied
until the last minute. He then
withdraws himself entirely from
business, and resorts to the pleas
ures of life.
The house of Rothschild, consis-
ting of the Baron James, Charles,
Lional, and other brothers and
cousins, is undoubtedly the most
royal and powerful of the reigning
European families. They have alb
sorbed most of the gold and silver
of the world and no nation can go
to war in Europe without their
sovereign permission. They lent
the Emperor of Russia forty mil
lions for the Crimean war, they lent
the British Government seventy
five millions. Turkey, Austria, Sar-
DINA, Prussia and Egypt have all
looked to their pockets for the sin
ews Of war.
The Emperor of Austria, at the
last accounts, was trying to obtain
a fresh supply from this inexhaus-
tible fountain, and even the great
Napoleon is eager to propitiate the
branch of the house in his Empire.
1t is said that the great banker has
been offered the sovereignty of
Jerusalem, but having all the scep-
tres of Europe in his coat pocket,
he magnificently disdains the pro-
positions.
The Philadelphia American has
story, that the Baron James was
quietly leaning against a col
umn in the Exchange (which col
umn, from long occupation by him,
is recognized as the Rothschild)
when gentleman of mysterious
department approached him and in
timated that be came from the
neighborhood of the Tuilleries, to
confer with him respecting the dis
possl of the Holy City. The Baron
is said to have replied in terms by
no means courteous; in fact he con-
signed the ambassador and his mas
ter to a place not mentioned TO ears
polite. 1t is supposed that he at
once perceived a scheme to extract
out of his pocket the expenses of
the Syrian expedition, on pretence
of restoring the Jews. The Baron
is not convinced that this is the set
time for restoring the Jews, nor has
he seen any prophecy which de-
ciares that they shall be restored
at his expense.
