The Tunnel Under the British Channel.

The long-talked-of project for a Channel tunnel
uniting England and France is now coming into
practicable shape. Rothschild has put in his
money; Michel ChevaIier, the originator of the
Anglo-French Commercial Treaty, hasgiVen pollti-
cal influence; Leon Say is to work the social as
pect of the undertaking; and L~avalley, who did
all the difficult work on the Suez Camel, has all
his plans ready for circumventing the worst freaks
of father Neptune. The total cost is TO be $780,
OOO, 900, equal to 81 900 900, per mile for the dis
lance traversed. The preliminary shafts will cost
$500, 900, which sum is now ready to begin with.
The line to be traversed by the tunnel crosses
the Channel from Westenhauger, between Dover
and Falkestone, in England, to Cape Grisnez,
which lies midway between Boulogne and Calais,
in France. Here the two coasts are but twenty
miles apart, and the vast body of water Is sud-
denly compressed from the 100 miles of it's western
breadth into this small space. Hence the short
sea voyage is always a rough one, and as Calais
and Boulogne have each very poor harbors no
large steamers can be used. The engineers propose
to leave $50 feet of solid earth between the bed of
the channel and the roof of the tunnel, so that the
depth of the lowest portion will be about 1000
feet. This heavy downward grade will neeessitate
the construction of approaches five miles long on
each side. 1t is remarkable that the engineers do
not ask for any governmental grant or guarantee,
and that they only want a concession for thirty
years insead of the ninty-nine usually given The
carrying out of this stupendous work will facilitate
the intercourse between two wealthy countries,
and it is a comfort to see SO stupendous an enter
prise based on commercial principles and not on
national subsidies.

Mr.. EDITOR: / notice that Evolutionist -
comes again to the charge; this time q little lamely
and with 8 whine. 1 have nothing to do With hs
chemical disquisition on Coffee and Milk, and Chalk,
for l know but little of the science Of chemistry, al
though, perhaps, as much Of chemistry ss Esolu-
ZIONIST knows of the theory he champions. l will
say, however. that the chances are in favor of the
authors knowing as much Of what they wrote about
Coffee &c., as this learned " EVolutionist."
"I have stated facts says the dogmAtic EVOlu-
ZIONIST, but, if he will pardon me for the cOntradic-
ton, I must say a close examination discovers no
fact. unless he calls his airing Of chemistry facts, ex-
cept the one positive statement that Mr.. Tyndall
merely denied some false statements made against
him. This statement proved and you Mr.. Editor.
and your humble correspondent, will be compelled to
dof cap and drop quill points to antagonist.
In the company of such minds rs Calico, Newton,
Locke, Faraday and Tyndall, d" Evolutionist " would
be as much out of place as the Jaekdaw among the
Peacocks, and would no doubt be as badly plucked.

BUTLER IN A New ROLE.-The chances are that
Ben. Butler will prove to be one OF the most valu-
able members during the present session of Con-
gress. He will blurt out, in season and out OF
season. all sorts of unpalatable truths. There will
be occasions when he will take upon himself a
character not very dissimilar to that OF the States
evidence. His definition. lately, of the Repub-
licau party was a trihe malicious, but, for all that,
not greatly out of the way. 1t was a party, he
said, at the head of which were capitalists and
monopolists, and at the tail negroes, without much
afiliation between them. But the peculiarly of
Mr.. Buffers position is that his value as a ~lawgiver
ia enhanced by the fact that he is soon TO retire to
private life. If he had been reelected, paradoxlcal
as II NAV read. il would have been next TO impos-
sible to frame a good word for him.. He becomes
valuable as a public servant in proportion as his
term of office diminishes.

HEPwoRTH DIXON gives this account of two re-
markable men. He says a stranger sauntering in
and out among the lime trees of Berlin, may chance
to meet two men in earnest talk, on whom his eyes
will fasten with q start. A plump and venerable
mana soldier from the tip Of his gilt helmet to the
spur of his cavalry boot-salutes with military
q~uickness as you touch your hat Sedate, a little in
advance and listening with a curious strain, he has
the outer presence Of a man to whom the weight Of
life is not alone the load of time. Though swart
with sun and toll his features have a something in
them weird and mystical. 1t is a martial and i'm
perial face; yet in the lofty look-soo lofty for a
trace of ordinary pride-you catch, by a surprise Of
the imagination. something of the pensiye and a ccus-
ing spirit of a monk. But even this fine figure can
not keep your eye from wandering to the partner Of
his walk. Straight as a pine and rugged as a larch
is he; a man in plain attire; yet martial in his stride
and gait as though he also passed his life in camp.
A man with ample brow, firm and massive chin, a
head all brain, . trunk all nerve, he seems to pour
out foods Of strong speech, yet with an eye 80 open
and a face so frank that he who listens would not
have him spare one word. No dreamer, no self
searcher, no idealist is he; but one who clings to
fact, to science, to the rule Of three. No weakness
fingers on that face; no doubt, no superstition, no
remorse. When laughter ripples down his cheek, it
is the fash Of light on metal, rather than the play
of flesh and blood. You feel at once that what he
does it right, in his own eyes; that be will never
need to justify his actions to himself. That elder
parsonage martial, meiitatiye, doubtful of himself,
dependent on unseen powers, is Weihelm Of HoheD-
zollern, victor Of SadoWa and Sedan, first e~yangeli-
cal emperor on this planet. That younger, though
mature and sturdy parsonage, is Bismarck, Chan
cellor of the secular Empire in Germany. Eyangeli-
cal prince aud secular statesman, they embody in
their several persons the spiritual forces and the
practical necessities which have called that empire
into life.

The SCIENTIST TyndaIl has found an a~pologist in
this far-off corner of the world, who uses the Hd-
tOaiian Gosetfe as Q vehicle for the dissemination of
his platitudes. To the care and tender mercies Of
our correspondent g Quilp' we leave this g Evolu-
zionist > and his " facts;'' remarking, however, that
he has apparently never read the nGiUe and some
what melancholy halfapolOgy OF Tyndall in regard
to the charge of atheism as an inference from his
published lectures. We quote:
"In connection with the charge of atheism, 1
would make one remark. Christian men are proved
by their writings to have their hours Of weakness
and Of doubt, as well as their hours of strength and
Of conviction; and men like myself share, in their
\ own way, these variations of mood and tense. We're
the religious views Of many of my assailants the
only alternative ones, I do not know how strong the
claims of the doctrine of 9 Material Atheism upon
my allegiance might be. Probably they would be
very strong. But, as it is, l have noticed during
years of selfobseryation that it il not in hours of
clearness and vigor that this doctrine coEmends IT.
self to my mind; that in the presence of stronger
and healthier thought it ever dissolves and disap-
pears, as Offering no solution of the mystery in which
we dwell, and of which we form a part"
What a contrast between this victim of the g vari-
atoms Of moods and tenses'' and another great
scientist, Sir David Brewster. "There'' said his
PHYSICIAN, y lay TINS grand anu giIteu ou philosopher
this hoary, loving votary and arch-priest of science,
pressing fearlessly through the valley of death sus-
tanned end gladdened with the all-sufdcient faith of
a very child and looking forward with unclOuded
intellect and bright and happy prospects to the
mighty change that was to carry him from time to
eternity" 4e
The philosophers still live, but their philosophy is
smouldering down with the bad odor Of . tallow can
die just burning out. The new materialism of Hux-
ley and Tyndall devours their own ~fne-spun mysti-
cism, and scientists themselves are shrinking back
from the terrible Fate" implied in Hu1ley's last
lecture-thata all animals and indeed vital existence
which must therefore include the Deity as q living

ments of the sophists and materialists of his day into
the reductio ad G6surdam; those of the present day
are walking there of their own accord.

Funeral Reform.

49, 49,
Recently We took OCCASION TO speak OF the foolish
and absurd fashion which prevails here as well a.
elsewhere throughout the civilized world Of burying
our dead with conspicuous and costly display; and
we observ We that the subject Of Funeral Reform has
been occupying no little share Of pubIs attention
abroad, particularly in the COLonies< While we
freely subscribe to and honor the sentiment that die
tates the expression Of affection and regret felt by
those from whom q relative or friend is taken by the
hand Of death. yet we cannot help thinking that the
disembodied spirit can receive no satisfaction at the
absurd expenditure incurred at the inierment Of his
or her mortal remains; an expenditure that. in too
many cases, alas. sadly diminisbes the small 1eans
Of those on whom the duty Of burial desolves. Il
not one Of the most absurd Of the many absurd FASH
ions with which society is tyranniEed that we cannot
bury our dead without the accompaniment Of dis
play and worse than useless expensei

The NeD York Herald says: DR.. Fulton asks
this remarkable question, Gould you invite Christ
to go with you to a theater?' Probably we might
not, but what the fact proves is difficult to see.
There are many places to which DR.. Fulton even
would not invite Christ, if he could-for instance
to a market, or a cigar shop. or a Broadway stage.
or a strawberry church fair. or a rattle for the ben
eft OF a Baptist church. Yet Christ in His day
mingled with publicans and sinners more than de
did with the priests.

SEIZURE OF OPTuN-Last Thursday evening. one
Of the officers of tie steamship Mikado was arrest
ed in the act of smuggling ten boxes OF opium.
The drug was con6scated and the smuggieF was
fined, under all the circumstances. SIS The
licensed vendors Of opium, Messrs. Along Il
Achuck, complain not a little of the smallness Of
the fine imposed, whereby. they say, no protection
is afforded them in a business for carrying on
which they have paid into the Treasury some
$40, 600. They instance cases Of less magnitude
that have occurred here, where q much heavier
penalty has been imposed. The officers of Gus
toms, also, who made the seizure, were dissatisfied
at the summary manner in which the case was
taken up and disposed OF by the police authorities,
the Court being held at an unusual hour after can
delight, and not at the instance of the Collector
General.
On Wednesday evening Mr.. Markham, the
Custom House Guard, made a seizure of ten boxes
of opium, which are alleged to have been SNUG
gled from the steamship Colorado. and which were
concealed in a house occupied by Chinese shoe
makers and fruit peddlars on Hotel street. Sew
erai of the Chinese passengers by the Colorado
were arrested on Sunday for bringing small arti-
cles on shore intended for sale, the arrests being
made not by the police, as the Gazette states, but
by Custom House officials.

DEATH OF A PROMINENT ODD F~ELLow.--In No
vember last, DR.. j. F. Morse, a prominent member
of the Order of Odd Fellows Of the United States,
arrived here from California, en- route for Austria
liza, to which country he had been specially depu-
ted as Grand Sire by the Grand Lodge of the
United States. His failing health however pre-
vented his proceeding farther on the voyage, and
he took passage on the December steamer for San
Francisco. He died a few days after his arrival
there, on the 30th of December, and was buried
January Sd with all the honors of the Order.
Every attention was bestowed on him by the Cap
tain and officers of the MikGdo. DR.. Morse is
spoken of by his friends, as "one of the noblest
and best Of men, one of the keenest and brightest
intellects, one of the most whOle-souled and gener-
Gus of Odd Fellows" He was a P. G. NJ. of the
r. W. G. Lodge Of California, P. G. Rep. of the
Right Worthy Grand Lodge of the United States
Special D. Grand Sire to the German Empire in
1870, and Special D. Grand Sire to Australia
in 1874.
THE CoLoRADo.--This splendid steamship of the
Pacific Mail Company arrived in our harbor on Sat
urday the 9th in slant, having been obliged, when
about 400 miles 20 the northwRrd Of these Islands
on her voyoge from Yokohama to San Francisco, to
run for Honolulu for a supply Of coal. This she took
on board, to the extent Of 400 tons, and having made
some necessary repairs to her machinery damaged in
a gale, she sailed again on the 18th. During her
stay in port the Colorado was visited by many Of our
residents, who admired her magnificent proportions
and the cleanliness ard order Of her internal arrange
ments. Her Commander, Capt. H. G. Morse, was an
old acquaintance of many here, having formerly
visited this port in Command of the ship Syrsn, Of
Boston. This successful visit to Honolulu Of one Of
the largest of the steamers of the P. NJ. Co Cher ton
mage is reported ~ S.727) may be considered a fact
in our favor should the Company ever seriously con-
slider the plan of making this a port Of call on the
voyage between japan and San Francisco.
