Gov Fenton of New York has signed
the bill incorporating the Central nm

struggle Of five years the city has se-
cured what all Of its interests required.
The route Of the tunnel is from City
Hall park through City Hall place and
by way Of Mulberry aud Blocker place,
Fourth avenue to Madison avenue to
Forty second street, and eventually To

who embrace many Of the wealthiest

completed from its southern terminus
TO Forty second street within two years
they are required Likewise, to have So,
100000 Of stock subscribed within n
year, and within five Yeas to have the
road completed along the Harlem river
There is no doubt that the men vino
are at the head q the enterprise will

to accomplish the design q tie bin,
and that operations viii be commenced
at an early day. Meanwhile, It il
argued that when the road is completed
it will not be able to accomplish the
whole Of the work desired 81 Il, aud
that the city must have at least four
other similar roads before its immense
wants OF transportation are fully salts
fed. A bill for an iron tubular tunnel
from New York to ! rooklyn is already
about through the New York Assembly,
and the conditions are mainly the
same Of those ID the underground rail-
way bill that 1t shall de begun within

The SECRETS OF THE KUELUx KHAN
A lodge Of the recent Kuklux Khan, at
Memphis, Mem, was broken up few
nights since, and from the constitution
and other documents which were cap
tured, some interesting facts have been
learned, respecting the order. The
names Of the Chapter" was the Sup
rene Cyclopean Council" On the
center table appeared human skull,
used in administering the oath to mem
bers. The constitution says. "The
object Of this organization is for the
purpose Of protecting the people of the
South from the band of murderers and
robbers now preying upon them, even
to the one to the other that nothing
shall be allowed to deyiate us from this
noble object. When candidate is
admitted the constitution further says
'The members of the lodge, all shroud-
ed, will rise and receive him, and con-
duct him into the middle Of the room.
Each member Of the order shall have Il
drawn dagger or other weapon in his
hand, pointed toward the candidate,
and each member will be required, in
the presence Of the candidate to swear
that should said candidate prove re-
creant to the oath which he is about to
take, that he will kill him, and make it
his especial duty to do so on the first
safe opportunity. After being admitted
the candidate is compelled TO subscribe
to a long oath, of which the following
is the closing part: further swear
that all radicals aud negroes who have
placed themselye opposite to the in
terests of the owners Of the soil Of Ten
nessee shall forever be ny enemy, and
that under no circumstances viii have
other connection with them, if / can
help it, than TO welcome them with
bloody hands to hospitable graves.
That my family and the family of
radical shall never Interchange visits.
And further pray that the God Of The
Southland, whom | now invoke, shall
strike me dead should / ever, either IN
letter on IN spirit, infringe upon the
things set forth IN this oath To all Of
which ! swear in honesty Of heart and
sincerity Of purpose. So help mo God

for the gradual resumption Of specie
payment is gradually gaining attention
II only needs to be understood "a
make its way We find the following
appreoiaiiye notice Of the bill in the n.
Y Tribune Of Friday
Mr. Lynch Of Maine has pending in
the House Of Representatives plan for
gradually resuming specie payments.
Briefly stated, il consists IN issuing
from the treasury coupon bonds to the
amount Of 300,000,0O0 Of denomina-
tions Of 500 and upwards, bearing in
tcrest at four per cent, payable quar-
terry IN lawful money, and making these
and gresnbacks reciprocally conYerta-
bic into each other at the pleasure Of
the holder after the first Of MAY next.
all United Staies legal tender notes re-
ceiFed by the United States, say $3.50.
100000 per year. or $4,000 600 per
month are TO be retired and destroyed.
aud ia their stead notes payable one
year from date ia coin are to bo issued
20 all creditors to whom legal tenders
have heretofore been paid BY the lst
Of May, 1868. $50. 000, 900 in coin notes
would have taken the place of the pres
ent greenbacks, having been paid out
for salaries, government contracts, cur
rency interest aud all expenses OF the
government These notes wall come
due at the rate Of half million dollars
day during the year 1859, and to be
redeemed ~ gold By repeating the
same operation for 1869 and 1870, the
whole Issue Of greenbacks now out
standing would have been converted
into demand notes. and would be re-
deenablc IN gold by May LIST 1881
Dir Lynch says that he firmly believes
that the presentation and redemption
Of the lrst SD 100000 of these notes
would 50 establish public confidence as
as to reduce the premium on gold TO a
nominal figure. The difference between
the plan aud that Of Immediate resump-
tion is that il limits the amount u
notes which can be presented to the
government for redemption 10 half a
million dollars per day after one year
from the lst Of May next As our gold
receipts amount to about third Of
a million 8 day, Il is thought that SO
gradual run on the treasury for its
gold could be successfully met untl the
public confidence had 30 far improved
as q reduce TIC premium on gold To a
nominal figure. when specie payment
would be resumed hy the banks and
