MI. E. A. Freeman, 10 one of his recent lectures
at the London Institution, on The Uses of the Eng
lish Language spoke of the newspaper use of the
word a : ovation" and told q funny story how, dur
ing the course of the Tiehborne trial, 3 man was
brought before a magistrate, charged with creating 8
disturbance. He pleaded that he was only helping
to receive the Claimant with the customary
. ovation" When asked to explain what that was,
he defined it as "hooting aud yelling Consider
ing what Is o~yations'' usually are, there was more
truth than poetry in the mans definition. There is
another Latin word from which 60 ovation - might
also be derived; but the word, said Mr.. Freeman,
"meant an egg, and that sort of ovation was usually
kept for candidates at contested elections"
Love-has its silliness-no one will deny its weak
nesses-but it has its divine side, too; chiefly, then,
and not till then, comes the complete absorption of
self into some other being, dearer and better, higher
and nobler than ones self-or imagined so-Ehich
is the foundation of everything divine in human
nature. If men or women are ever good at al, ever
heroic. unselfsh, self-denying, they will be so when
they are in love. And if the love be worthy, that
goodness will take root and grow.
According to the accounts from Damascus, dated
July 22d, the cholera was then raging there. Four

Antioch, Deerhems, Hannah, Homan and Salijah, and
among the Druses. The mission schools are closed

The Channel Tunnel.

The Paris correspondent of the Times has re-
ceived the following letter from a person who is,
he says, qualified to speak with authority on the
question of the tunnel from England to France:--
"1 promised you some information respecting the
Submarine Tunnel as soon as the matter had as
sumed a positive shape. | was waiting till the
bill had been ubmitted TO the Assembly; but
several papers having already alluded TO it, l
think myself bound without further delay 20 give
You some particulars on the chance of their inter
esting you. The convention signed between
NJ. Caillaux, Minister of Public Works. and NJ.
Michel Chevalier, as representing a French COM
pany, is substantially to this effect:--The Company
undertakes within Eve years at the utmost to ex-
pend on French territory a minimum sum of
100000 francs in Investigations, experiments
&c. At the expiration of five years it will have
the right of abandoning or retaining the conces-
sion. 1t is bound to come to an understanding
With an English Company furnished with the
necessary powers to insure the construction and
working. The period allowed for the execution
OF the works il fixed at 20 years. The term Of
the concession will be 80 years from the opening
Of the undertaking. The French Government
pledges itself to authorize no other tunnel be-
tween France and England for the next 80 years
from the opening. The company has thus a
monopoly of 80 years. These conditions have
been submitted to Lord Derby, who declared he
had no objection to them. The French company
has been formed, and the 1900, 600 francs sub
scribed in 400 shares of 5000 francs each. The
chief engineers of the enterprise will probably be
Mr.. Hawkshaw on the English side, and NJ. Lavally.

mate of the cost of the Submarine Tunnel has
been calculated according to the outlay on French
railways rs regards everything applicable to the
tunnel. The tariff, per kilornetre has been con-
siderably raised, but as the tunnel will have to
compete with navigation the tariff will necessarily
be governed by the convenience of the public

THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL WEDNESDAY

to those before the military court of inquiry,
but that the lawyers In the cabinet quickly
showed him that this would not do, and tn
president Immediately acquiesced. The de-
lay possible under the military proceedings
would be very great. The court is
ordered to report upon the facts and
give an opinion. None of the necessary
witnesses are in Chicago, and they must be
brought mainly from st. Louis and Wash
ington. The court OF inquiry can pro-
nounce no sentence, no matter how guilty
it might find the accused. It can at the
most only cay that, in Its Judgment, trial
by court martial should take plaza. Ifsucb
a trial should follow, so much of the ground
would have 70 be traversed anew as to con-
sumo much time. The Howard Court of
Inquiry, where nearly all the witnesses and
all of the records examined were in Wash
ipgton where the court was held, occupied
over forty days. These statements give
point to the strenuous attempt to have the
military proceedings supersede all further
action by the grand jury or the court at st.

there were new breaks through the lime
stone, and the destruction of the whole
water-power was seriously threatened.
After the citizens had taxed themselves
heavily the federal government came to
their assistance. To prevent the opening
out OF permanent channel under the falls.
solid buikheads of masonry were built in the
tunnel, aud means were devised to cut OF
the percolstions through the underlying
sand rock which Is so soft that 1t is easily
cut with knife. At last it became evil

engineer In charge, that nothing could save

two tremendous walls of water-tight
masonry under the limestone ledge at both
ends to hold mp the river. This great work
Is now being executed. The lower wall, or
dixie, as being the most Immediately neces-
sary, is being built first.
TWO HUNDRED MEN ARE WORKING
In three relays, night and day, on the i'm
mense structure. The sustaining wall, just
above the fall, is underneath the limestone
ledge (which rests upon its top,) and ex-
tends from one bank of the river to the
other. 1t is 1850 feet in length (more
than q third of q mile,) 40 feet high and 4
feet thick. It's base is 20 feet below the

effectually prevent the breaking through OF
any new channel. It is said that the water
has never gone more than IL feet
into the sand rock to do any dam
age. This peculiar silscious forma-
ton runs down for 1000 feet, but 1t is
quite firm aud solid below the bottom OF
the dixie. The construction of this wall is
now being pushed rapidly by Mr.. ]. L. Gil
lespie, G. E, In charge. The cut of the wall,

the Minneapolis (west) shore, and the con-

wALLING IN THE WATERS.

THE FALLS OF ST. ANrHoNY-k WALL FORTY
FEET HIGH TO HOLD Up THE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER.
A Minneapolis correspondent writes the
New York Graphic as follows: 1 send you
herewith plan for the gigantic work now
being prosecuted by the federal government
at this point to preserve the falls OF ST. An
thony and the vast wster-power from de.
struction, and as final end, to maintain
the 600 miles of steamboat navigation
in the Mississippi river above this
city. 1t is one of the largest, most
necessary, and profitable pieces of in
ternal Improvement now being prosecuted
within the limits of the United States. The
river at this point, after flowing sere nelly for
600 miles, suddenly drops over a limestone
ledge and falls so feet in one plunge, creating
the largest available water power in the
world. Since Father Hennenin named the
tall, 200 years ago, IL has receded nearly half
mile up The river. and the water marks
along the bank prove that tie fall a. one
time YVES at Fort Smelling, eight miles be-
low. This constant retreat of the fall Is
caused by the breaking away and dropping
down OF the lime stone stratum as lie Is un-
dermined by the backset at the foot of the
cataract.
THE LIMESTONE LEDGE
Is only from nine to fifteen feet thick, and
runs out" In bed Of sand q quarter OF q
mile above the brink of the fall. II this
obstruction to the channel should wash
out, or, IL q new channel should get under
it, the water-power here and the hundreds
OF miles OF navigation 10 the river above
would be forever destroyed. To prevent
these calamities Is the object of the pending
improvements. The peril OF the falls
was greatly increased seven years ago by a
foolish project Of the Tunnel Manu-
featuring Company, which excavsted in
the sandstone under the limestone, a
tunnel the whole length of Hennepin Is
land, Its purpose being to serve as a tail
race under tue sites OF manufactures to be
built. Water YVES to be received above the
fall and discharged below it. The precious
work bad proceeded to the loot OF Nicollet
island, where, In October, 1859, the tunnel
was invaded by the waters of the Missis-
sippi river. The original tunnel was six oy
