A correspondent of the London

Is, describes a ride through Mt. Gents
tunnel as follows: "Our carriage was
last in the line, and as the engine
worked backwards we were close to it.
Both windows were wide open, and we
had not the least inconvenience from
smoke or steam. There was no per
ceptible difference between the inside
and outside air, and one of my com
panions slumbered through nearly the
whole distance. The fact that the
engine was in our real was certainly
in our favor, but the unanimous evil
dence of all who had come through in
the morning went far to establish that
they also had experienced no unpleas
ant sensation, and the difference in
temperature could only be detected by
the thermometer, which marked a few
degrees additional warmth in the tun-
mel. The highest degree of tempera-
lure attained in to-day's journey has
been Is degrees. Our pace through
out the crossing seemed fairly rapid

in the up and down journey of between
seven and eight English miles, was
precisely thirty-eight minutes; but

upon Senator Sherman to tell the peo-
pie what had become of the $780,

ministretion during the six years OF

answer. Again and again I demanded
a reply ; at length the answer came
He says it was expended i'll paying
pensions and the public debt. Let us
see; here is the report of the Register
of the Treasury, and he tells us that
during these six years of peace the
debt was reduced 1884, 100000, and
that the pensions amounted to less
than 1928, 000, 900, in all $407 ,00O,-
600. Will the Senator tell what be-
came of the small balance of $780,
000, 900? Will he answer!
He tells you of the s120, O00, 900 Of
pensions, but be is as silent as the
grave about $4,000 900 drawn from
the treasury by the Secretary of the
Navy in violation of law.
He talks of pensions, but fails tc
tell the people that the Secretary Of
the Navy increased the pay of the off
GERS of the navy one-third, without
the authority OF Congress.
He talks of pensions but fails to
tell you that under Democratic rule
the highest office in the navy was q
post captain, whose highest salary was
only 81, 500, now increased to $4,000,
with the aristocratic title of admiral to
boot.
He talks of pensions, but forgets to

der Republican rule we have only six

six fleets and one hundred and three
