200 Groves galvanic batteries, and
each OF them will explode from seven
teen to twenty charges. An ingenious
scheme has been devised by which all
these batteries will be brought into ac-
ton at the same instant, and thus a
complete ciccuit will be formed, firing
all the charges together, and utterly
destroying the great plateau of rock
which has hitherto INSTRUCTED naviga-
ton except for small craft through
Hell Gate Channel.
Gen. Newton has kept up a constant
series Of experiments to insure per-
feet success when the great day comes,
and there is no reasonable ground for
any fear of any accident. The engi-
neers are of the opinion that the only
apparent effects of the explosion will
be the hurting into the air of huge
column of water, with possibly a few
pieces of rocks, as the resistance of the
water will prevent any except a few
of the smaller masses from being
thrown beyond the surface. AS soon
as the explosion is over, the work of
dredging will be begun at once, so as
to make the channel open to naviga-
ton at the earliest possible time. AS
the floors of the tunnels slope out
ward, from depth of thirty-three to
forty-seven feet below low water mark
and the depth of water required for
navigation in the neighborhood of
New York is only twenty-six feet at
mean low water, it is plain that after
the explosion and the subsequent
dredging there will be ample room for
the largest ships in the world to reach
New York Bay through the waters of
the SOund.-N. Y. Tribune

THE RIGHT BOWER.

IT was Judge Lurlington's own ex-
preston.
Half u dozen lawyers, fresh from
their studies, and just admitted to the
bar, were listening to his advice. The
old juriSt was in a communicative
mood.
Young men," he said, whatever
may be your strait, never take a case
before jury, or before any court, I'M
less you have your right bower for a
lead
II the reader Surmises from this that
the old Judge was fond of euchre, he
will not have surmiSed amiss.
The young men looked at him in
quiringly.
q mean," he added, "that YOU
shall never advocate a cause into the
work of which you cannot enter with
a clear conscience. You shall never
accept client whose cause you do not
believe to be just.
''Can that rule always be adhered
top asked one of the listeners.
''It can" answered burlington, en-
phatically. 1T is a lawyers firm
rock of foundation, and the only sure
point of departure to the respect and
confidence of his fellows"
"Have you always followed that
rule, Judge?'
$ was never tempted from it but
once" he replied. 81 will tell you
the story, if you would like to hear it. -
OF course they would like to; and,
having laid aside his pipe, the old man
began:
Zone day [ was waited upon by a
man who gave his name as Leban Sar-
furt. He was of middle-age, we'll
dressed, and at first sight appeared to
be a gentleman; but the illusion was
dispelled when approaching business.
He was hard and unfeeling, and natur.
ally a villain. Success in speculation
had saved him from becoming q tibet
or highWayman. I heard of him as a
heavy dealer in the up-river lands
He asked me if | was willing to under
take a job which would call me tC

anything legitimate that would pay.
MIR. burlington" said he, tapping
me with coarse familiarity upon thu
arm, q want to secure your services

9 told him if he would explain tt
me the case | might be better able t.
give him an answer. He bit an enor
NOUS quid of tobacco from a blacI
plug, and having got it into shape be
tween his jaws he went on with his
story.
The case is one of eiectment. Al
elderly man named Philip Acton, haG
died leaving valuable estate. There
was nearly 1000 acres of land, will
opportunities for developing i'm
mense water power; and ere man,
wears that land would be worth more
than 81 100000. At present upon tn,

.'But,' said Sarfurt, she is not A.;

was Betsy Totwood, at one time cir
in Acton's employ. Acton, | know

boy up and educated him, and now thu
fellow thinks he will step into his pro

AS sharp as stick.
AS clean as q penny,
AS dark as pail;
AS hard as milestone,
AS bitter as gall;
AS fine as a fiddle,
As clear IS a bell;
AZ dry as herring,
AS deep as well,
AS light as a feather,
AS hard az a rock;
AS stiff as poker,
AS calm as a clock;
As green as gosling,
AS brisk as bee;
And now let me stop,
Lest you weary of me.
