The Moron OF BoPE.-The Phila-
delphia Times says that John w.
Kelley, the inventor of the new mo-
ter which is to monopolize the procu-
ration Of force, appears to be on the
verge of success, and that he is more
sanguine than ever. He thinks he will
be able to exhibit the motor at work
by the LIST of June, and that, barring
accidents, 1t will be in complete work
ing order by the Fourth of July.
From his having some fifty hands en-
ployed in the machinery preparations,
and his other heavy expenses, both he
End the capitalists associated with him
would seem t, have full confidence in
the early triumph of the invention,
and believe themselves OF the Hood
tide of fortune. Said Kelley last week
to a Times reporter who visited his
workshops: "This machine will de-
velop $500 horsepower enough to
run all the ears in Philadelphia and
New York put together-and can be
charged with seventy gallons of pure
vapor per minute. The present CEN
fury has given birth to many marvels,
steam, biography, ETC., and we are GO

measure than even great scientists can
imagine"

SIN ROSA Candidate.

We have no doubt there are other
candidates for Congress, but these are
all we can think of now. However,
while we are not at liberty to stale
the name, we are permitted to say
that there is a gentleman in this
place who has been almost persuaded
by his friends to become a candidate
before the nominating convention.
Should he do so he will be one of the
most formidable candidates in the
field. For u part he has our best
wishes, because he possesses every
qualification necessary to fill the posi-
ton with credit to the State and honor
to himself. Possessed of sufficient
worldly goods to make him indepen-
dent for life. and, with honor and in
tegrity to back it, there could be no
temptation sufficient t o make him
werve from his duty. He is we'll
known throughout the State, and has
been a prominent resident Of it for
many years.-Pioche Journal.
If he possesses so many bright and
shining qualities, why hold his light
under a bushel? Let us all know who
he is, SO we can give him a boost. II
isn't right to excite the curiosity OF
the people of the State in that manner,
and then keep them in darkness,
Give us his name, do; don't let us
burst in ignorance.

Our dispatches to-day advise us of
several important changes in the high
er offices within the gift Of the Presi-
dent. We do not know that any po-
lltical significance is to be attached to
them. We fancy that they all arose
from the apparent necessity ofappoint-
ing Edwards Pierrepont, the Attorney
General, as Ministerial England in lieu
of General Schenck, of poker fame.
Mr.. Pierrepont has probably in the
the course OF his official duty thorough
" examined the law and precedents
connected with the Winslow case, and
his services at the court of st. James,
pending its. determination, will IN
dDubtedly be of advantage to our
cause. His appointment has created q
vacancy in the AttorneyG Generals Office,
sndJudge Tai. Secretary Of War, has
been translated to the Department Of
Justice. The vacancy in the Cabinet
is filed by the appointment Of McDon-
aid Cameron, a son Of the astute Sena-
tor from Pennsylvania, as Secretary Of
War. Judge Tan ~ undoubtedly
placed where he can be Of more SER
vice to the Government than at the
head of the War Department.; but II
Mcdonald Cameron, Of whom we
know nothing, shall follow In the path
pursued by his illustrious father dur
ing his short term of office at the COM
mencement of the war, why Belknap
will be a. fool to him, and what is
more, no investigating committee can
find him out.

ExTRADITION.

The cable announces a rcmor, pur-
porting to be semi-oficial, that the re-
quest of the United States for the re
manding Of Winslow will be allowed
by Baron Pollock, and that the British
Government will endeavor, in this case,
and pending a revision of the treaty, to
pursue. some middle course that will
satisfy the ends of justice. We sin
cerely hope this may be done. That a
criminal, who, like this mai Winslow.
has adopted hypocrisy to breach of
trust, forgery and theft, and pursued
his nefarious schemes under the cloak
of sanctity, should ultimately escape
punishment. is shocking TO the moral
sense, and his absolute discharge by
the English courts would enable him
to secure a refuge against all future
prosecution. But on the other hand,
we must, in justice to England, con-
slider the position in which she is
placed. With all the Continental Pow
ers she has treaties providing for the
mutual extradition of criminals SINH
lar in their terms to that with the
United States. But some of the Euro
pean Governments have demanded
the surrender of a felon and have sub.
sequently placed him on trial for an
offense purely political. The Anglo
Saxon has never, either in England or
America, denied hospitality and pro-
lection to a political refugee. A MUIR
derer, a burglar, a forger, has ever
been surrendered to the justice of the
community where his crime was COM
mitted, but the exiled monarch and the
defeated conspirator alike have always
been secure in person under the protec-
ton of the Stars and Stripes orthe Red
Cross of st. George. These violations
by the European powers of the spirit
of the ~extradition treaties have been
called to the attention of Parliament,
and a law has been enacted requiring
as a condition precedent to the sur
render Of one charged with crime an
assurance on the part of the Govern
ment prosecuting him that he shall not
be tried for any offense other than that
for which he is reclaimed. Of course
the aprrehended wrong could not be
committed in the Winslow case, and
could hardly occur at all under our
system of government. But the rule
as adopted BY Great Britain must, un'
der existing treaties, be enforced equal.
ly against all nations; and we regard
the rule as a good one. Under any
other rule the poor French Commun-
ist who earns a scanty subsistence in
the purlieus of London, might be de-
manded by the McMahon Govern
ment on a charge Of arson, and sub
sequently be tried and shot for an Of
Tense of a political nature. Under any
other rule the liberty of the Empress
Eugene would to-day be at the mercy
of any procmreur who should lay an
information against her for burglar
izing the crown jewels. England has
for centuries been the refuge of the
oppressed, and we hope that for cen
turtles to come political offenders may
find safety under her mgis. We hope
a way may be found by which Wins
low may be surrendered to justice, bu'
in the mean while that England may
consistently protect this political refu
gees within her borders. Our remedy
in the future lies in a revision of the
treaty.

STEALINGS.

The header uf the Sutro tunnel is
now in q distance of 1920 feet. A
large amount of water is being en-
.cOuntered, which retards the work of
running the tunnel. The present rate
of progress is about sixty feet per
week. In order to guard against the
danger of the tunnel being suddenly
flooded with water, holes are drilled
in the face of the header a distance of
from seventeen to twenty feet with
Burleigh and IngersOll drills. The
whole number OF men working in the
tunnel at present on the different
shifts Is l25. The work of enlarging
the tunnel has been completed, so that
locomotives can be brought into
requisition in hauling out the waste
rock. A number of men are engaged
in laying q track for the same. The
locomotives have been o~verhanled and
put in order for work. In order TO
avoid the presence of smoke in the
tunnel, no firing will be done after en-
tering, except at shaft No. 2, where
there is a good draft upward.
