a JOINT STOCK COMPANY has been
organized in France to tunnel the Straits
of Dover, and connect England with France
by.rail. Dover and Calais, the points to
be connected, are twenty-three miles apart,
and the formation to be penetrated is be-
ieved to be nothing but an immense bed
of chalk, of ct least eight hundred feet in
thickness. Machines for sinking wells in
chalk deposits have been invented, which
in twenty-four hours will bore a hole
through such material fifty-four feet deep
and seven feet in diameter. The company
estimates the cost of railroad tunnel
twenty-three miles long at about 500, ,000,-

ACCORDING to the state census of
Iowa the population of the state is 1851 :
533. The national census of 1870 gave
it a population of 1, ,191 .792. The increase
in the two years is therefore, in round
numbers, sixty thousand. The census of
Michigan in 1879 showed population of
,1s4 ,059, leaving Iowa slightly in advance !;
but If the figures of the Iowa state census
are correct, the Detroit Tribune think 8
that Michigan has more than made up the
difference, and is now handsomely ahead
of Iowa. The state census Of 1874 is
expected to show q population in that state
of very nearly, if not quite, a million and
q half. E.I Ek

MAGNETIC IRoN.--Large beds of mag,

contains the lightest per centage Of phos-

vein is almost inexhaustible, and boulders
of it exist on top of the ground as large as

soon be established there. Buckingham is

A SHARPER BIT.--A short time ago Q
sharper visited the office of q gentleman in
this city and presented letter from we'll
known mining company Of q western city
to the clerk in attendance, who was kind
enough to loan him $25, with which he took
his departure northward, in company with
q gentleman also connected with the office.
A week passed, and nothing being heard
from the stranger, the proprietor wrote to
the western firm and found that his clerk
had been swindled. A few days after the
gentleman stepped on the boat at Washing
ton and was introduced to man who
afterwards proved to be the one that his
clerk had made the loan to. He at once
demanded the amount loaned. The
fellow said he had no money, but gave
to him his gold hunting-case watch
and chain as security until their
arrival in Richmond, when he would
arrange the matter; saying that since he
was here he had difficulty with the
western house, hence their refusal to
recognize their:former letter. When the boat
touched at Alexandria it is supposed that
he slipped off, as nothing was seen ofhim
after that time. As soon as possible the
authorities were telegraphed to, but have
failed thus far to find the man. The
watch and chain were only plated with
gold, but are presumed to be worth the
S25 the light-hngered party got.

was perfect and master mind directed
every movement, but in the sham fight,
which occurred Thursday night, an ac-
count of which appears in another col
umn, it was very noticeable with what sys-
TEN and management Colonel Salisbury
worked q hundred or so picked men, He
held them well in hand, and as he moved
across the field he organized and man
ipulated them until when he reached
the foot of the hill, where he commenced
his charge, he had every man so well in
hand that he was under perfect control,
and the detachment worked as a whole.
and though the Fourth Brigade, into
which Salisbury charged, numbered ten
men to his one, they had no head pres
ent, nor effective organization, and
though they were as competent, well
drilled and effective soldiers, they could
not prevent Salisbury from taking the
gun and drawing it half mile to his
own camp.
Then when the return charge was
made by the boys of the 4th, to retake the
gun, Ihough they came on IN the perfect
order of disciplined soldiers, they showed
the lack of organization, and fell upon
Col. Salisbury in his position, outnumber.
ing him four to one, and each man ex-
erted himself to accomplish the object
for which he had come across the field,
but the Col. held his men so well that with
his inferior numbers he not only kept
the cannon for nearly an hour, hut was
able to retain all OF. it that could not be
taken in pieces. Now if the boys OF
the Fourth Brigade had been organized
as well as their opponents, the mere
force of numbers would have made Col
SalsbHrys whole command prisoners
upon his charge, and would have retaker
the gun at the first rush across the
brook. We trust that this little incident
in the Reunion camp, will be duly
weighed as an illustration of the powel
Of organization over the mere force o.
matter or individuals.

TEE POWER OF ORGANIZATION

In our everyday life we can draw in
struction from many things that are con-
stantly passing before us. When every
thing works smoothly and in harmony
we do not notice the power of organiza-
ton, but the moment that affairs be-
come disarranged and we see the differ
ent elements of what should be concert
ed action, working in different direc-
tons and each interfering with the oper-
atoms of all the others, we then note at
once what splendid effect could bepro-
duCed by successful generalship. This
is probably more apparent in the engin-
eering Of operations where the instru-
mentalities used are men, or active, in
telligent agents. 1t is often remarked
that one foreman will accomplish more
work with a given number of men
without apparently greater effort,
or without harder work by the men,
than another who does not accomplish
near as much. This is but an illustra-
tion of the power of organization of
effort.
AT the reunion that closed its encamp-
ment at Camp Doubleday, yesterday, in
the general working of the ceremonies
and programme of the committee, there
was no friction, because the organization

POULTNE

The interesting events of last week
in Poutnev, were the ordination of two
Young men to the work of the gospel
ministry. On Tuesday, the 29th of
July, james A. Pierce was ordained at
the West village, and on Monday, the
Both, Albert T. Dunn was ordained at
the East village. A full account of the
exercises of each has appeared in the
HERALD. These young men are recent
graduates at Hamilton, n. Y, and both
seem to be promising young men. Both
of these occasions were of unusual inter
est. A very interesting feature in each
was the harmony between the two par
ishes, the people of both attending each
ordination, and Mr.. Pierce the day after
his ordination performing the part of
extending the hand of fellowship at the
ordinationof Mr.. Dunn. Both churches
are now prosperous. May they so con-
tinue.
A more than usual amount of sick
ness now prevails in Poultney. The
cool weather may relieve it.
The Evergreen Slate Co. are now
manufacturing about 40 squares of roof
ing slate day, and find their orders
ahead of their product. The quarries
are all active in producing, but the de-
mand on some is not as active, owing to
the hard times.

Mr.. MoRTON's BID FOR THE FARMERS.
We understand that Senator Morton
of Indiana, who has been engaged for
half year in studying the constitution
al bearings of the farmers movement in
its relations to railroad rights and privi-
1eges, has come to certain conclusions
which the country will be likely to hear
of at the next session of Congress. He
will probably take the ground that, I'M
der the eighth section of the first article
of the federal constitution, by which
Congress is empowered to regulate
commerce among the several states, !"
Congress possesses the authority to es-
tablish regulations for the government
of railroads, or, at least, of all inter
state lines, and these, of course, include
the leading lines Transportation. which
are only partially under the control of
the state Legislatures. Some of the diff
ficulties which have arisen, or which are
anticipated, from the measures adopted
at the Illinois Legislature at its last ses-
sion, would thus. be obyiated. 1t the
federal government may not, in detail,
establish the rates of carriage, rates OF
speed, rates of interest, and methods OF
stock management for the railroad COM
panies. it can provide general and fixed
principles by which all their operations
must be regulated -Neso York Graphic.

friends of temperance held on the camp
ground in Mortified on Wednesday,
Aug. 6, was a success. Notwithstanding
the excursion trains which brought large
numbers away from that vicinity ON

near the railroad, surrounded by some
quite respectable buildings and well
seated was well chosen as a place for
such a gathering.
