v,,ro Glad 70 learn that our esteemed friend Capt.
Tbos. II. Reeves of the llth Infantry, US A., has
lately received two Brovet commissions, one as Major
and the other Lieutenant Colonel He now has t%e
.,me rank, which be held when mustered out OF the
volunteer service at the close Of the war. Colonel
Reeves is one Of the best drilled officers that our State
furnished to the army ftbe Union. Hemay well feel
proud Of his military record and success. Ertering
the rams as a private, he steadily assembled the lad-
der of military honors fer his faith'ulness, soldierly
bearing and unremitting attention to the stady of mill
t0ry tactics. lie commanded the ith Tennessee lhian'
try, during the latter part of its service and won an
.nviabIc reputation as an Efficient officer and disciple

Opinion Of Wendell Phillips on
ImDCaChmCnt,

New YoRK, September 10.-The
New York Herald'S correspondent has
had a long conversation with Wendell
Phillips, and details the result in a
letter which is published this morning.
Mr.. Phillips firmly believes that i'm
parchment will follow Immediately
on the reassembling of Congress, and
that President johnson would not so
persistentIy court such a course if he
were not prepared and determined
to resist it. He believes that McClel-
lan's reported recall has something
to do with it. The late amnesty he
considers reasonable and an effort
to build up another rebellion. He
favors neither Chase nor Sheridan
for President, but Thad Stevens is his
choice.

The Tunnel at the Summit Of the
Sierra Nevada.

The great tunnel of the Central
Pacific Railroad is completed. This
is the last, the longest, and by far the
most costly of the excavations along
the line of this road. 1t il one thoGs-
and six hundred and sixty feet in
lenght, and was begun at the, east
protal on the 10th of September, and
on the west protal on the goth ofSep-
TENDER last, and the work upon it has
therefore occupied about a year. The
material which had TO be dri led and
blasted was granite Of the hardest
grain. As but a limited surface could
be presented 10 the workmen, advan.
tage was taken ola depression in the
centre, and q working shaft of one
hundred and ffty-nino feet was sunk
SOFAS to present four working faces.
The average rate of progress with
powder was about one foot per day
to each face, or from twenty " thirty
feet per week in all.
In March last the company accep-
ted the services Of an ex%perimenter
in nitro.glycerion which article was
manufactured ON the spot, wherever
il could be used with advantage, and
the average was increased to nearly
fifty feet per week. Tho @orkmen,
principally Cinnamon, labored in
three gangs for eight hours each, and
proved very serviceable in this kind
Of work. AT times the consumption
of powder reached four hundred kegs
per day. Work was continued during
one of the severest winters ever
known, at an elevation of over seven
thousand feet above the ocean, or
three times higher than the Allie
gHaGies or the Calskills.

PROSPECTUS.

Having long felt that a necessity existed
for Il journal in the Southern States devoted
especially to Music, the undersigned has Mt
length determined to issue a periodical, to be
called
The Southern Journal of Music.
The people OF the South have always been
noted for their love of the Fine Arts, as well
as the culture of good taste in every house
hold and though the war has left but little
time and less ability to pursue faforite studies
yet the oldlOve remains, and will show itself
in greater devotion than ever, as rapidly as
the people can recover from the terrible re-
suits of the war. The undersigned, there
fore, confidently expects his enterprise to be
a popular one, while with him will rest the
responsibility Of making it a successful one.
/: is the fixed determination to labor for
the continued cultivation of good taste, by
producing earnest thoughts from the best
thinkers, all aimed at the one great end, of
adap iEg High Art to the popular taste, and
thus, If possible, preventing that demoraliza-
ton in Music which has nearly ruined the
hopes of Art in other departments.
The Southern Journal Of Music will be a
monthly Of sixteen pages, each number con-
tanning from three to five, or more pages of
good music-the music alone, if bought in
the usual way, costing five or xix times as
much as the subscription price. Great care
will be exercised in the reading matter, and
the most scrupulous regard will constant
ly be had to the presentation of that only
which tends to elevate the taste.
TERMS-Sl % PER ANNUM IN ADVANCE.
The price is Fixed at such a low figure that
clu5-rates are not admissible, but a liberal
per Centage will be allowed to any who will
forward a list of twenty-five or more.
The first number will be issued about the
frst Of October next, and succeeding num-
bers will appeal regularly every month there
after. Should the subscription list justify
the expense, Improvements will be as time
will show occasion but the journal will be
published whether the list will justify the
Improvement or not. .' g.. !
Music Dealers, Seminaries, and others who
feel interested in such an enterprise are re-
q%uested to exert their influence in favor of
the journal. %
Editors who receive this prospectus and
make a notice of it, stating our terms, &c.,
will please send copy Of paper marked.

A Family jar.

A day or two since a young Eme-
raider, living in Jerusalem, who has
been but lately. welded quarreled
with his vile and asserted his lordly
superiority by attempting to give her
a beating. Her screams attracted
the mother of her husband, a large
powerfully built woman, who taking
in the situation " at a glance, pitched
into her son, and was soon giving him
tue worst of the bargain. This was
more than wifely affection could stand,
and forgetting the blows she had just
received, she attacked the old lady,
and between the two, it was for a time
likely that grey hairs would have to
succumb bat tie. old lady got very
wratky at. this uugratoful return for
her kindness, and watching her oppor-
tunity, soon "settled" the younger
lady by a well directed blow, and then
finished off her son in the pugilistic
style and drove both outof,the house.
An eye witness stated that "for the
short time it lasted, it was the pref
test little three-handed fight l ever
eed."

,IMlGShnrg,


The mushroom town at the present
western end of public traffic and trav-
ell on the Union Pacific Railroad, has
not yet been able to determine wheth-
err it is in Neb aska or Colorado. AS
it will perish outright when the track
reaches Cheyenne, next month, this
strange city will not survive tc per-
pick the youthful mind in the study
of geography, 1t is tersely said Of
Julesburg that one-quarter of its pop
uIation deserves capital punishment.
The remainder, we suppose, might be
allowed, by a judicious exercise Of
mildness, to go to the p%enitentiary
for life. A correspondent informs us
that Julesburg lately elected city Of
icers, and be sends us a brief account
of their installation. Owing to some
extraordinary chain Of accidents, no.
body was shot on the occasion. The
military officer "a ~colonel), who had
previously been in command, made a
speech to the newly-initiated author
tiles who supplanted him. He said:
"Gentlemen, -- your souls,
I'm going to turn this thing over to
you to run. lfyou don't run in right,
gentlemen, your souls, I'll
take it and rim it myself" ,,,.
This was received with great ap-
plause, in spite Of its flavor Of militia
ry despotism.
