TUNNELLING UNDER THE SEA.-A scheme
has been proposed for uniting Ireland and
Scotland, so as to do away with the neces-
sity of making sea passage altogether.
The entrance to the railway tunnel, by
which it is to be accomplished, on the Irish
side is to be from point about midway be.
tween Cushenden and Cushenhall, on the
coast of Antrim, and on the Scotch side at
Glenstrone, from whence it would run
through the head of the Null of Cantyre.
The total length of the tunnel under water
would be thirteen miles three furloughs,
and it is said that the ground through
which it would have to be made is exactly
suited for tunnelling operations, and the
sandstone for lining 1t can be had in any
quantity on the Irish side. It is proposed
to construct the tunnel for single line
only, the extreme depth being twenty-one
feet and the clear width at tho level Of the
rails fifteen feet. 1t is proposed, however,
to lay down three lines Of railsto accommo-
date wide and nsrrow-gauge carriages.

DECISION IN RELATIoN TO TOBACCO AND
CIGAR MAEUFACrURERs. - Commissioner
Deisno decides that Ia cases Of manufac-
turers Of tobacco and cigars who remove
from one house, or from the premises
where they have paid special tax to carry
on the business Of manufacturing, asses
cors are authorized in. treating such re-
movals as the termination Of the business
at the place for which 1t was especially
taxed, and the commencement Of o new
business Of like description at the place to
which the parties have removed. Conse-
quently the law sanctions the requiring Of
new bonds, new duplicate statements, Of
new collectors certificates, the filing Of in
ventor5es for both places as concluding
business OF one and commencing OF the
other, and the payment Of taxes on the
manufactured tobacco and cigars which
they take with them to their new
places as removed from the place of manu-
facture. With regard to the question whe
Their dealer who sells out his entire stock
IN bulk and retires from business should be
required to include the amount of such sale
with his other sales for the purpose Of tax
alton, it is decided that the law requires
wholesale dealers to return the amount Of
all sales within the year in excess of $780,
900, and pay tax of one dollar on each
thousand Of such excess. Such sale may
be an occasional act, but this does not
change its character. The person is al
ready dealer in having paid special tax
as such, and after having sold his entire
stock, whether he goes out Of business or
reneWs his stock and continues his bust
ness, is immaterial 30 far as the tax is con-
cerned.
