THE great Summit Tunnel through
the crest of the Sierra Nevada Noun
tain chain, has generally been looked
upon as a three or four years job.
But the Californians, in their impa-
tience to push forward the Central
Pacific Railway, have put in practice
the underground tactics which their
quartz mining had taught them. They
attacked the tunnel at both ends, and
then sunk a shaft In the middle
down to the level of the grade, aud
worked both ways. The tunnel will
be 600 feet long through the solid
rock. 1t was commenced last Sep
TENDER, and on the first of June only
four hundred and fourteen feet re-
manned to be taken out. The pro-
gress made is sixty feet per week, at
which rate the job will be completed
by the first of August-eleven months
from the time the ground was brokenl
After passing the mountain, the way
is open without serious obstacles to
overcome, clear to Salt Lake, which
the Californians are confident of
reaching before the Eastern Division
of the great work gets there

RepubIicanism in the South.

At the Republican CONCESSIONS |
Caucus at Washington City last week,
some interesting statements were
made as to the progress being made
in the Southern States in the extern
sion of sound political principles.
The report shows that the Executive
Committee have collected about
ST., 900, which has mainly been ex-
pended in the employment of speak
ers and organizers, and furnishing
reading matter in the South. The
Committee have In their employ
about sixty colored men and num-
Der of whites engaged in the work of
organizing the party in the rebel
States.
Senator CHANDLER gave glowing
account of the importance of the
work, and said that every Republican
member of Congress could raise at
least one thousand dollars in his dis
trict, to be expended in advancing the
cause; and said that if means were
furnished, the Committee would guar
antee to the Republican party the
ten Southern States at the first cleo
ton
SENATOR WILSON, of Massachu
sets, stated that the election in Vir-
ginia would probably be held in Sep
TENDER, and the result would aston
ish the nation. He was certain that
the majority which Virginia would
give would place her in the first rank
of the Republican States of the
Union.
Several members Of both houses
made brief and interesting addresses,
urging the Importance of the work,
and claiming that dollar expended
at this time would be worth one hun
dred expended year hence.

The House OF Refuge-Letter from
Gov, Baker.

1t is known to our readers that the
last Legislature made partial provis-
ion for the establishment of House
of Refuge for Juvenile offenders
against the laws, and for vicious and
unruly youths. 1t is an institution
which has been badly needed in In
diana for years, and it is a matter of
congratulation that the Legislature
at last took action upon the subject,
even though the appropriation was
insufficient for full and proper es-
adjustment. Governor BAKER Sc
lected a Commission of prominent
and humane citizens to carry out
the legislative provision. Of which
CHARLES f. COFFIN, leading Quak-
er citizen of Wayne County, is Presi-
dent. This Commission, in conjunc-
ton with Governor BAKER, have To-
Gated the House of Refuge at Plain
field, Hendricks County, and have the
buildings under way. We have been
permitted to read letter from Gov
ernor BAKER to a gentleman Of this
city, in answer to some inquiries rela-
tive to the provisions to be made for
the admission of inmates and similar
matters, and as the letter contains in
formation of interest to the public,
we have asked permission to publish
it. The letter of the Governor was
not written for publication, but as it
gives an account Of matters which
the people of the State will desire to
read, we make the following extracts:
The construction OF the buildings
for the House of Refuge has been

be ready to receive Juveniles by the

We are disposed to believe that
there is no weapon, however petty it
may be, that Andrew johnson will
not use, now that we have read his
last message to Congress. Weakness
of intellect and strength of obstinacy
could go no further than In this argu-
ment that the United States in recon
structing the Union becomes respon-
sible for the legitimate debts of the
rebel States. This is mere pettifog-
ging. The intelligent Democrats who
ironically commented on it in the
Senate indicated the severe treatment
Mr.. johnson will certainly re-
ceive from that party when his
term of Office expires. Did he actually
suppose that the, country could be
frightened by the debt of 800, 600, 900
he invented, or that such a self-evi-
dent stroke of demagogism would af-
feet a single vote in Congress, or the
result of one township election? We
are afraid that Mr. johnson did en-
terrain hopes of frightening other peo-
pie, though we cannot do him the in
justice to suppose that he was in the
least scared by his own imaginary
monster. Those who manufacture
bug -boos are not terrified by their
horns or tall 1t would be better for
the President were he to abandon this
dubious and trivial policy at once.
