remembers the burial-day of Horace Greeley
when whole nation were his mourners, can
doubt that problty and simple virtue do COM
mand their proper homage from our people.
One other picture we should like to place
before every man or boy who hopes to be en-
nobled by manhood that of the captain of
the virginius, on the day when he was shot
at Santiago. 1t does not import whether we
the spectators wish Cuba, bond or free
whether this man Fry was SpaDiard or Amer
lean, Catholic or Protestant, right or wrong
in his GRAND. The facts remain that he
believed it right; that sustained by this belief
and by his faith in his religion, he was, when
captured, tried and shot in one day, able to
meet death in fashion that proved the man
the stronger of the two. Senior Alfaro grovels
i'm the dust at the feet of Burriel, crying out
that he is suddenly filled with horror at this
" fratricidal war y he offers to allure the Cuban
cause, TO turn traitor, to barter his secrets for
his life, and we are tempted to forgive his cow
ardce. So sudden was the grip OF death on
his throat, it is no wonder that the manhood
of the wretch fed affrighted. But Fry, In the
breathless pause between his mock trial and
murder, sits down to pen letter to ms cap
tors in favor of the crew OF the NIrglnius
"and mitigation of their sentence" which in
its courage and calmness ia unequaled by any
fiery Grafton of Roman warrior before listening
Senates. The claims of each of the crew to
mercy are set forth not even the poor idiot
servant forgotten but not word OF supphca-
ton for himself. Note the weight OF his
appeal the moderation of it, He sets forth
the effect of the murder in Cuba in this
country; there is no threat, no rage, nothing
but the quiet force of arguments why these
bis companions should not suffer with him.
"Spaniards, the world is not so full OF people
"who prefer honor TO life, Save him." mean-
ing Bosa. My blood ought to be sufficient
And the strange touch of pathos OF the close,
when in the midst of his dignilied farewell to
the Seniors who condemned him, remembering
the little ones at home, he asks them to bid
their wives and children pray for him. We
protest that we know no more heroic figure III
history than this poor captain of the Virgin
JUS in his poverty and commonplace work,
brought face TO face with eternity. We would
give to our children no loftier thought to re-
fresh them on Thanksgiving Day than that
with which he passed out of sight, with his
hand held out to help his brothers and welcom-
ing death. with proud humility as "a hene-
fiji of God ~
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1873-11-27
THE DAY,

There seems to be q little hesitation this
year about Thanksgiving. The morning papers
will issue their usual secular sermons, injunc-
tons to gratitude will reach US from the
pulpits, and the usual number of turkeys and
mince-pies will be eaten; but it is undoubtedly
the fact that the mass of the people are cool
in the matter and fail to perceive any I'M
wonted cause just now for giving thanks. 1t
is true that the sun has shone and the rain
fallen to ripen the crops; health and plenty
and peace Lift the land toward chance of
clearer perception of the Power that gave
these things. But then, sun and rain and
health are ordinary matters; one has had
time to grow used to them since those first
miraculous days of creation; but what about
the panic, and the mills closing, and the war
with Spainf Why should we eat turkeys and
sing hymns when these wolves are at our
door
The fact is, the goodness of God is such q
sure thing that it naturally grows monotonous
and His blessings backneyed. What men have
done and the Inconvenience brought upon US
thereby touch us more nearly. We have o
vague belief that He holds the hearts of mer-
chant and broker as well as of kings in His
hand, but are quite willing to forget Him
while we are following them in their road to
the dominion of dollars; but as soon as they
fall and crush us in their ruin, we are quite
ready to hold Him to account We have no
time to gather His meaning or purpose in the
confused wreck about us of shattered fortunes
or stinted homes. 1t is easier to grumble than
to believe that by this timely warning He has
saved the country from ruin, and essayed to
substitute prudence for waste and honesty for
profigacy. Such prophetic insight is too much
to expect from ordinary Americans at their
dinner tables to-day; but there are one or two
signs of the times which thrust themselves
tangibly into view as if to convince them that
human nature itself in spite Of stock-gam-
blers and Spanish officials, is in a state of
convalescence so hopeful as to warrant their
gratitude. The first (and we SAY it with no
triumph over the fall of a gray-harod man)
is the final closing of the jail-door on Tweed
Five years ago very few men were sanguine
enough to hope chat in the City of NewYork

UNDER TEE HOOSAC MOUNT1LN.

The great enterprise in which Massachusetts,
is so deeply interested, after fifteen years OF
more or less consecutive labor now rapidly
approaches completion. Within few hours
of the time when these lines are in the hands
of a majority of our readers, the opening from
the east will have met that from the west,
and the great natural barrier which has so
long INSTRUCTED commerce between the great
lakes and the England seaports, will DO
penetrated in the interests of commerce, and
a long step will have been taken toward the
solution Of the problem of transporting West
ern products by the shortest route to the sea-
board On our third page there will be found
a letter, illustrated by diagrams, giving very
full description of this great undertaking, and
detailing the means by which it has been ac-
complished.
The Hoosac Tunnel is one of the most i'm
portant works, considered merely az an en-
gineering enterprise, of the present day. A
comparison of it with other tunnels is not
without interest. Coming. as may be said,
close upon the heels of the Mont Gents Tun-
mel, it is likely to be most frequently COM
pared with that great work. The Hoosac
Tunnel il narrower than the Mont Gents by
less than one twelfth; il is within eight inches
of the same hight; it is about two-thirds "a
long, and when complete wiz have cost about
One-third moro per mile. The last-naned
fact is the more noteworthy because tue Alpine

he is personally interested, that no enterprise
in which he engages seriously can be called
desperate one. IF it be true, as reported, that
a plot is now matured to Overturn the Repub-
lie and bring back Don Alfonso, with Ser
rano az Regent, the present crisis will afford
him the best possible opportunity. The Cas-
telar Ministry will inevitably suffer an eclipse
of popularity. which will greatly assist any
pronunciamiento which Scrrano may have pre-
pared
If this should take place, we are further
than ever from peaceful solution OF the dill
fculty. Nothing in the way OF justice OF
common sense in its dealings with the cuban
question could be expected from govern
mept of which Serrano should be chief. The
hedges upon which he would gain power
would be fatal to tho maintenance OF good
relations between the United States and
Spain so far as colonial matters are con-
cerned. 1t would be in the highest degree
preiudica to our interests to have this plot
succeed. 1t would be injurious to our peace,
to onr finances and our trade, and these are
considerations which will appeal even to those
superior persons who think we ought not to
sympathize with republcanism anywhere but
Mt home.

tunnel had to be lined with masonr, from emo
to end, owing TO the rock being del. 0''Vo-
having 80 many seams that it was not Gull
sidered safe without support. The compof.'
tive hardness of the rock bored is scarcely 30
important in these undertakings as the ques-
ton whether the material is self-sustaining;
soft and decomposing rock was far more for
midable obstacle to the HoOsac work than the
harder material afterwards encountered: but
on the whole, the calcareous stone which
formed the bulk Of the Alpine mountain was
ut least no harder than the micaceOus lorna
tions of Massachusetts. The Mont Gems
Tunnel, owing to the hight Of the mass above
it, had to be constructed entirely from each of
its entrances, and is deficient in the great
advantage as to ventilation which the HOosac
obtains by its central shaft
No other tunnel bears so many points OF
comparison with the HoOsac as that or Mont
Cents. Some of the French tunnels are, how
ever, of great length that on the line be-
tween Marseilles and AvignOn being about
three miles, and the Blaisy Tunnel on the road
from Paris to Lyons about two and half
miles long. One of the English tunnels Is
three miles in length, and some of them have
encountered the most arduous and costly dlf-
ficulties in engineering. The Sydenham Iun-
mel, on the London, Chatham and Dover Kali
way was one of the most expensive, though
cut through nothing harder than London clay
because after the cutting the clay swelied ana
crushed the supporting masonry. A parailei
in the length of time taken by some portions
of the American work is to be found in the
tunnel of Arschwiller, on the line between
Paris and Strasbourg; its mile and a half
having consumed nearly eight years in con-
struction; and against the one hundred and
thirty-six human lives lost by accidents III tho
Hoosac, may be set the frightful casualty In
the shaft of the Havenstcin Tunnel on the
Central Swiss Railway, where the wooden
lining, taking fire and giving way, fell with
the surrounding earth upon sixty unfortunate
workmen.
Of the great commercial importance of this
new highway to the sea we have spoken on
previous occasion A glance at the map which
we present will show how direct is the line
which will now connect Boston with the freight
brought down from the West by the New
York Central Railroad and the Erie Canal. 10
the words of warning we then uttered we
need not add. The facts will soon speak for
themselves Already the mercantile interests
of Boston are preparing for the expected in
crease of business, and the freight carried
through the tunnel will be discharged on
wharves where warehouses and ocean steam
ers stand alongside to receive it. If New
York is not ready with equal facilities, the
fact that the New England city is two humid
red miles nearer to the Old World market of
our grain may prove more than counter
weight to all the advantages we have hitherto
enjoyed

The New-York College of Pharmacy adopted
few weeks ago resolution recommending
an early closing movement among the drug
stores of this city, and committee has I'M
dertaken to procure the assent of all the lead
ing druggists to the proposition. Thus far
very large majority of apothecares have
signed the paper presented to them, and there
seems to be a fair prospect that the poor drug
clerks will at last get relief. Indeed, when we
consider that the "eaglyn hour appointed for
closing by this reform movement is so late as
10 p. M, and that the ordinary days work of
a clerk will even then be fourteen hours, we
cannot realize that there should be any oppo-
sition to tho change; we only wonder that 1T
was not made long ago. No man gains any
thing in the long run by overlooking his en-
poy6s.
