The Great Tunnel Commenced.

John Bull will not he content until
he can go to France dry shed. For
many years the project of bridging or
tunnellng Dover Straits has been con-
sidered, and various are the schemes
that have been brought forward 10 &C
complish this object. The best en-
gineeriDg has been employed, and the
most careful examinations and csti-
mates have been made, with view OF
discriminating its practicability and
probable cot. The necessity for such
a work is more and more felt each sue
ceeding year, and the enormous traffic
now in passengers and freight seems to
demand that the work be undertaken.
1t Is an enterprise of vast proportions,
and will require an enormous outlay
and consume many years before COM
pleted. :.
The various plans for bridging the
channel, including the visionary
scheme Of susponding the structure on
balloons, we believe, are all abandoned,
and the only practicable method Ofget-
ting railway across to France will be
to go under the sea. The work there
fore of cutting tunnel has at last
been entered upon, and company has
organized and registered in London for
commencing the work. About s., 900, :
600 viii be first expended in sink
ing shafts and thoroughly testing
the feasibility of plans. If the expert
mental shafts prove successful, books
will be opened for further Subscriptions
to the stock, and work will he pushed
vigorously. The completion will be
only a question of time. Five years
have been thought sufficient, but il
seems hardly possible that SO gigantic
an undertaking can be accomplished i'm
so short space. The cutting will be
comparatively easy, unless the geolo-
gists are at fault, for the only resistance
is said to be soft chalky rock that can
be easily bored. There will necessarily
be great danger connected with the
work, from the liability OF letting In
the sea, and the difficulty of securing
ventilation during the progress of the
excavation. When completed, the tun-
mel will he twenty-three miles i'll length,
and fresh afr will probably have to be
forced through the centre length by ar
tificial ia. ans. If modern engineering
is able TO provide for this, there can
be no doubt of the success of the I'M
dertakiug. Fw u 6 IA
Both countries are expected to join
in the expense of the enterprise, but
the labOrillg oar viii fall to England,
since the finances of France have been
SO severely crippled in the late war
with Prussia. This Is probably, all
things considered, the most gigantic
and difficult piece of engineering that

To 4 sccrtain the Weight of Live Cattle.

. First, zee that the animal stands
square; then with q string, take his
circumference just behind the shoulder
blade, and measure the feet and inches
this is tire girth. Then measure from
the bone Of the tail, which plumbs the
line with the binder part of the but
took, and direct the string along the
back to the fore part of the shoulder
blade, and this will be the length.
Then work the figures thus: Suppose
girth of bullock 6 feet inches, length
6 feet 3 inches, which multiplied. to-
gether make % square superficial feet,
and these multiplied by 2Dthe number
OF pounds allowed for each superficial
foot of cattle measuring less than seven
and more than five feet in girth-make
759 pounds. When the animal meas
ures less than nine and more than seven
feet in girth, 81 is the number OF
pounds 10 be estimated for each super
fetal foot. And suppose small ami
NAL to Ii easuree2 feet in girth and
feet in length, these multiplied together
make 4 feet, which multiplied by IL
the number of pounds allowed for each
square foot when the cattle measure less
than three feet in girth-make Al
pounds. Again. suppose a calf or sheep,
etc., to measure 4 feet six inches in
girth, and 8 feet eight inehesin length.
that multiplied together makes IL
square feet, and these multiplied by ld
the number of bounds allowed for
cattle measuring less than 5 and more
than 3 feet in girth-make 1855 pounds.
The dimensions in girth and length OF
the back of cattle, sheep, calves, and
hogs, taken in this way, are as exact as
1t is at all necessary for common COM
putation or valuation of stock, and
will answer to the four quarters OF
the animal, sinking the offal. A de-
duction must be made for animals hall

This irrepressible speaker, comic and
tragic actor and mimic made his debut last
night before New Orleans audience at the
st. Charles Theatre. He spoke and acted
for three hours, and if his audience had not
shown signs of becoming wearied would
doubtless have continued for three hours
longer, fully establishing at least one Of the
points he set out to make, namely, his phys
ical power. He announced himself as a
candidate for President of the United
States in the most serions manner, and then
proceeded to pitch into Grant and Greeley,
handling them without gloves.
He spoke of many other public men of
our country, without having a good word
for any but Train-the peoples candidate,
as he said, for President If he failed to
establish great intellectual power, which
was another of the points he set out to
make, he certainly did not fail to show his
great powers of mimicry. He mimics the
crazy man with a naturalness that is hard
to surpass.

WASHINGTON, june 2O.-The Quarter
master General has transmitted TO Con-
troller Broadhead for his decision a claim
from a pardoned confederate for military
supplies furnished in 1860. II was claimed
by the applicant that, by the recent deci-
sion of the Supreme Court, a pardon or
amnesty reinstates a confederate claimant
In his right to recover for property forfeited
to or eOn6scated by the United States gov
eminent; that such an act of pardon ia not
merely prospective, not only restoring a
man personally TO future credit, but return
ing to him or reimbursing him for goods.
effects or credits heretofore forfeited OF con
fscated as the property Of public enemy.
The Controller was Of the opinion that
such was not fair deduction from the de-
cisiOns of the Supreme Court, and, while de-
ferring TO the judgment of that tribunal, he
stated there were two existing grounds on
which claims of this character must at pres
ent be rejected BY accounting and dis6urs-
ing officers. He therefore advised the

Quartermaster General that this class of
claims can not be paid until first Congress
for that purpose; and second, until Con-
gress shall have repealed or modified the
provisions in the joint resolution of March

officer Of the United States government to
pay any account, claims or demands Of this
character.
