Under the head of 'Lost Opportunities" tho
Louisville Courier Journal says with keen ap-
prehension
ave givo il up. There was n chance that the
ncxt House OF Representatives would not be
Radical. That chance is gone. The outbreaks
in Kentucky and tho massacre in Tennessee set-
tie that much. No people, no party, could stand
under such load as the poople of tho south and
the democratic party Of tho north arc forced to
carry. Call it What you will-the fruit Of recon-
struoton, the fault OF tho party in powor, the
inevitable conflict Of races, precipitated by bad
theory of government, executed in vicious
practico--the ono effect of tho whole moss OF
violence is continuance and reimbursement of
tho old pretext by which the country has been
carried along in tho Same bAleful, partisan rut
ever since tho war.
1t is well to be plain. As surely AZ the south
begins to get on its feet do it's madmen proceed
to kick the fat in tho fire. Tho Radicals only
want protexts. The south supplies thom.'

A littlo while before l2 o'clock, Friday, Mr.
Jamos A. Conner, of J. A. Conner & Co., trunk
| and harness dealers and manufacturers in Mar
ket street below 3rd, undertook TO commit
suicide by cutting his throat with

inflicted, however, and he will recover. Several
days ago, Mr. Conner undertook to suicde with
laudanum in another city, and although large
quantity was swallowed he confessed to the TAX

Tho case Of Mr.. Conner is one which possesses

Singular SpeculatiOns in the East.

Archaologists, says the Ievant Her
aid, have Of late years turned their
attention largely to the recovery of the
vast remains of antiquity which are
known to abound all over Turkey,
Cyprus, Ephesus, Nineveh, the Tread,
and other classical sites have been
probed with pick and spade, and the
search has generally been productive of
discoveries valuable alike to the specu-
lator and to the student Hitherto the
search has been directed rather to
objects of early antiquity than to those
relics of the Middle ages, of which
Crete and Rhodes are the principle re-
positories, but which are found scatter
ed in the shape of old fortresses and
castles along the shores of the Medi-
terranean. Founding expectation upon
a popular tradition, company is now,
it appears, soliciting from the Turkish
Government fireman for dredging the
Port of Rhodes for the bronze guns
and culverins which are said to have
been committed to the waters in the
times of the heroic struggle between
the Knights of st. John and the mighty
solomon. The petitioners offer to give
the Government one-third of all that
they may recover. Speculation rather
than archaeology is supposed to be the
main incentive in the proposed enter
prise.

From report Of lecture delivered
at Venice by Professor Fubini we learn
that the great work of tunneling the
st. Gothard has made fair start at
both ends, and is proceeding at O rate
which is likely to quicken as science is
more and more applied to it. Italy it
was pointed out, is already connected
with the world beyond the Alps by no
fewer than four railroads, those over
the Simmering and Bremen passes, the
Mount Gents line, and that along the
Riviera coast from Nice to Genoa.
But it is cut off from all important
direct commerce with Switzerland,
Westerns Germany and Belgium, and the
st. Gothard line will open all these to
italian enterprise, the traffic passing
from them through it's being distributed
from Bellinzona, on the italian side,
by four branches leading respectively
toward Venice, Bologna, Genoa and
Turin. The use of dynamite in place
Of gunpowder is described as one of the
greatest improvements yet introduced
In this line Of work, since it allows a
large saving both of time and money as
compared to the older explosive. But
there are various notifications in the
air-supply machinery lately introduced
which add TO the comfort and safety
with which the work is carried on.
The boring machine is the Belgian one
OF Messrs. Dubois and Francois, which
is capable of giving from three to four
hundred blows q minute, but still
more powerful engine will shortly be
substituted for it, to the greater ad-
vantage of the work. A chain of lamps
down the center of the tunnel, brought
by means of telescope at some des-
lance from the mouth into a vertical
line with set Of posts carried straight
over the mountain, insure the perfect
correctness of the direction of the
work, which, contrary to the advice of
some engineers, will be straight
throughout, and about $500 yards
longer than that of Mount Gents. The
professor was confident that the line
will be complete in 1880, as promised
by the engineer in charge, M. Favre of
Genoa, who is assisted in the purely
scientific details by professor Colladon.

A Russian Chinese Railroad.

A special commission of the Cooper
ative Society of Russian Manufacture
and Trade has reported in favor of the
construction of a railroad line between
Russia and China, through Siberia.
The road, with it's connections, would
traverse for the most part thickly pop
ulated country, and open up immense
cattle and wool growing districts which
are now issolated from the business
world. It would have to be built in
sections, commencing with a fortified
town in Western Russia and ultimately
reaching Pekm. The Commission re-
port that, As an impeachment to rail
road from Europe into Asia the Ural
Mountains amount to nothing" but
singularly enough they seem to have
utterly overlooked the difficulty of find
ing conductors or ticket agents who can
properly pronounce the names of such
proposed stations as Krasnoyarsk, IT.

The old Tom CGt whose notes were so high; o.
And he used to serenade each night, John Smith
When the stars were bright in the sky.

Where the eins stand silent and lone,
Some naughty boys threw in the river one day
The old Tom Cat attached to a stone.
Don't you remember old Towser, John Smith
Old Towser who belonged to Bill Gale
And how many times, in our childhood sport.
We tied oyster to his tail?
Old Towser would have stayed with Gale, John Smith
Until he grew helpless and old,
But they caught him stealing sheep night, John
Smith,
And old Towsers tale was soon told.
Don't you remember the old pond John Smith,
And the bridge built across of logs
And how many times have stood on the bridge
And pelted with stones the poor frogs?
The bridge and the pond are gone, John Smith,

But 1 find no change in my pocket, John SIN it'll

A Twenty Thousand Dollar Tow.

Joseph Bergman, of Lansingburgh,
has just completed an automatic won
der, at his residence in that village, on
which he has labored constantly for the
past three years. Berghmann has al.
ready refused $40, 900 for the toy, which
is thus described in the Troy Times:
1t is intended to represent in meas
ure the business portion of q small
village. There are q series of houses
or compartments, each devoted to some
special branch of industry, and the
whole surmounted by tower, onwhich
there is town clock and chime of
bells. Commencing at the left hand
side OF the machine is lager beer gar
den. with figures sitting round table
drinking. At intervals they raise the
mugs to their lips, and a man stands
beside beer-keg drawing the lager
70 the right is shepherd tending his
flock. Beside him sits maiden, at
whom he occasionally "makes eyes -
and he also performs on fageolet in
his hand The saw-mill is fac-simile
of such an institution. The log is in
it's place, and slides along to meet the
teeth of the saw, which is working up
and down, cutting it in two. The at
PENDANTS are all busy in their several
missions. A carpenter walks up and
down ladder while at his work. The
scissors grinder is engaged at his voca-
ton. An artist looks out of the window
of his house and offers pinch of snuff
to the miller's boy, while the old miller
sits on a balcony reading books and pa
pers which an attendant from time to
time brings out to him. A woman in
one house hands a man fiddle, on
which he is expected to play. Another
woman watches for her lover, but is
watched in turn by a jealous villager.
The blacksmith shopis in ulloperation,
the man at the forge blows the bellows,
and the sparks fly as natural as life.
One man is engaged in shoeing horse,
and another YIELDS on the anvil. One
man is cutting wood girl is watering
plants, which gradually grow, bud and
bloom. Other figures are actively en-
gagged, but they are too numerous to
mention, there being over fifty in all.
There are two fountains, o music-box,
bells, all of which operate naturally.
The whole forms most wonderful com
bination of machinery, and is operated
by means of weights When wound up
it will run three hours.
The automaton is on exhibition in
