What Tweed and his men did-any
other New York ring will do, if it
gain equal power. The lesson,
then, as against rings is q tremen-
dous one.
He has learned the people a les
SON as to their duty as citizens.
The basis Of the many election
frauds IN New York is the fact of
non-attendance of the people to
their duty as citizens. Tweed and
h:s ring conceived the brilliant
idea Of having :his duty attended
to by their own faithful subjects.
Hence, the full vote OF New York
City was regularly cast,-but prID-
cipaily by repeaters and bummers
employed to do so by the kind and
generous Tweed. He did not even
60 to the people and ask them to
pay tho cost OF procuring voting
substitutes, but drew on the city
treasury for the purpose. So hab>
ituated had TO become TO performs
ing this service that he could hard
ly DO restrained from this kind of
copgeniaI work OF the recent elec>
tons. And so the lesson has been
given, that the best safeguard
against impure balloting is the sus-
pension of business and attendance
on the part of honest citizens AT
the polls. Tweed deserves a mon
umentl What a pity he did not
allow his enthusiastic admirers to
erect one in his praise, when they
proposed it, about a year ago

should be selected, and the statue
of the Boss erected there. If

taught US the danger of rings, and

A correspondent of the Utica Herald, who has
been examining a narrow gauge railroad, just
opened for business in Pennsylvania, writes as
follows:
AS the Central Valley railroad is the first
narrow gauge projected in the United States,
and has upon its track the first narrow gauge
locomotive ever turned out from any shop in
this country, and as this new system at the
present time is attracting much attention,
brief description of the road, the rolling stock,
its capacity, etc, may be Of interest to the pub
lie The grading, it may be remarked, with
the bridges and culverts, is COMPLETED and the
unfinished track is being rapidly put down.
The gauge OF the read, which is the same as
all projected upon the new pan Is three ieet.
The bed, which was graded under the imme-
diate supervision Of Mr.. Hurry, who IS likewise
the contractor, is piece of work rarely equaled
and nowhere surpassed. The ties arc five feet
and placed with about the usual spaces be-
tween The rails are Al pounds to the yard,
and Of the best English steel. When coupled,
as they are with the most approved Fish plates,
they are as unyieldin9 and secure rs eOntinu-
Gus rails. The engine, from Grants works at
Patterson, n. j., when loaded weighs eighteen
tons. The drive wheels are forty-eight inches,
with two inch steel tire The material
throughout is OF the best quality while in the
construction is displayed the perfection OF art,
The idea entertained by some that in mar
row gauge there is not room for the play of
machinery Is u mistake. The space is ample
and to spare. The freight cars are fourteen feet
in length by six and half feet in width and
height. Weight, 1890 pounds; capacity five
tons. The fiat cars are sixteen feet in length.
The baggage car is twenty-SIX feet long, height
and width same as freight ears, with net ca
pacty Of nine tons.
The passenger ears are thirty-four feet In
length, with a capacity for thirty-iour passen-
gers each. Weight, 1900 pounds. An ordina-

body is sufficiently obvious. The bile also con.

DIVING FOR AMBER.-Thc labor required is
of the seyereSt kind. The strengthened, iracund
peasants, described by CARLYLE, the descendants
of the ancient Cures and Szama.es, men often of
reckless and adventurous anteCedents-smu
glers, percbance, on the bOTder-land of ancient
Poland, who have pursued their calling with the
Cossack bullets whizziug round their heads
these are fiji material for the recruits whom the
diving adventure of the amber reef at Brus-
terort enlists in its service. The costume of the
diver is as follows; wooden garment covers
the entire body. This is again eneompassed by
an lndia-ruUber dress, made in one piece but
differing in shape from the old-iashioned diving
dress, and allowing the diver to lie at full
length. The helmet, also, is ola novel construc-
ton. Firmly fastened TO it, and resting on the
shoulders, is a small air chest, made of sheet
iron. This chest is connected with the air pump
IN the boat above by an India-rubber tubing,
tOrty leet long, and with the divers lungs by
another lnda-rubber tube, the mouth-picce of
