Tools for Tunneling the Channel.

In anticipation OF the important engineer
ing work Of piercing the chalk formations
under the channel, the ingenuity of the Eng
lish inventor seems to have found full scope
As the Mont Gents tunnel originated novel
drills and the use of compressed air as q
motor. SO will very probably the channel tun-
mel call into play new apparatus. II the the
|ory Of the geolcgists is correct. the mechani-
cal difficulties will not be anything as great
as for either the Gents or St. Gothard tun-
nels.
At present machine has been working in
an experimental way in Eogland, applied to
the face of the chalk, which seems to do its
work quite effectively. The machine works
like an auger, cutting off the chalk in slices,
which when broken up are removed By means
of endless hands. This machine makes drift
of seven feet in diameter, and its advance is
at about the rate of yard in fifteen minutes
If then this rate Of speed could be made CON-
slant by having two machines working from
opposite ends, the channel drift would meet
in about two years. 1t is estimated that the
cost of making this seven-feet tunnel would
be 50, 600, 600, and to increase it to the proper
working size, $40, 600, 600 more would be re-
quired.

TO MY DA UGHT,ER.

NV child. thou seest me content to lead
lonely life. Do thou. in imitation,
Not happy, nor triumphant, learn the neeo
OF resignation.
ALI euileless be, commencing with the skies,
And as q sun to glorify tho whole;
NV child within the azure Of thine eyes,
.'ut thou thy soul
For none are happy, none triumphant here;
To ali their little span is incomplete.
Our life is but shadow, and, my dear,
The shadows deet.
yasi Of their weary lot al mon complain.
To happiness. oh strange and cruel fate,
All things are wanting, al ! We seek in vain,
Or find too late.
What are the boons we craze, each FOR his part,
The hope Of which doth stil our hearts be-
Renown and wealth, word. awoman's heart,
loving smile.
Nirth, TO the unloved king, 10 wanting still;
A drop of water to Sahara's Qlaiu;
Mans heart is like well. which. 90 We fill,
But dries again.
Behold those thinkers whom We idolize.
Those heroes whose command We gladly oHn
Whose names illuminate our sOmbre skies-'
Where are they fown2
Thew rose like meteors through, tIe vintrv air.
And dazzled for . moment every eye;
Then sunk into the carssaess grave, and there
JRdafkness lie.
Kind Heaven, that knows our bitter griefs and
fears,
Takes pity on our vain snd empty days,
And bsthes each morning with refreshing teari
Our dusty ways.
One only law there is, 90 Just and mild,
or which each honest heart must own the
sway; -
TO pity, nothing hate, and oh! my child.
To love alWay.

National Debt Of the World.

The world il nothing now If not statistical,
- we'll - critical, though in the line OF its
figures exactness is sometimes problematcaL
statistician tells the public something that
is quite important if true, that the various
states or governments of Europe and America
have now piled up the enormous aggregate
sum. of $25. 0O0, ,OOO, 900 of interest bearing
liabilities. How to pay interest alone seems
to have developed into q financial puzzle. IL
seems unaccountable that governments should
have shingled the earth over with mortgages
in q ratio direct with the increased produc.
ton of gold. Britain has somehow contrved
an escape from the modern mania for national
debt imitation. She has paid as she went Tor
the luxury of her wars during sixty years, or
since the victory at Waterloo; and what the
nation owes British capitalists own; in other
terms, it is the right hand owing the left,
which keeps the money at home and in clrcu-
lation.
That was fearful but useful lesson which
suspension and initiation taught these islands
in the years l816-18l9. Distress then touched
q lower depth than ever before, by reason OF
scarcity produced by deranged finance. dis
ordered commerce and disorganized labor.
Britain insisted upon resumption and infa-
ton at the same time; and but for Geo. Cam
ming the people would have drifted along
upon tu0 DIlAOWS VI 1uuAuO0s AAAV NAs'
Greeley, he insisted that the way to resump-
ton was to resume. When Canning pre-
vailed, that country returned to coin pay:
ments year and . half before the eventual
day fixed by Parliament. Now that rulers Of
the nations have buried the people in Jay
Cookies blessing. so called, that is public
debts for posterity to pay, it may be hoped
that they will not soon return to their old In
diligence, the luxuries of war.

THE AGE OF MAN.-Leyel having, in posi-
tive wsy some forty years ago, put back the
birth of man to an indefinite period, the n
thropologists are endeavorin6 to throw fur
ther light on the difficult problem relative to
the supposed antiquity Of man on the earth.
The researches made in the Kent Cavern seem
to show that at that far distant period when
peolopically France and England were joined,
the primeval man existed. Efforts have lately
been made to fix mans recognizable presence
on this earth as far back as 800, 900 years ago.
The theory which gains ground every day. is
that of the gradual developement of man from
some semi-human form through countless
ages of barbarism. II, however. our present
type Is not persistent, perhaps in the ten mil
lionth year from now, future anthropo!ogists
will be in the same trouble as they are to-day

crime against nature and the laws

OF it, President Grant has sent in a mes

has done since he has been in power and
is intended to reach this national evil.

after boisterous, disorganized, r.dder-

adjourned on Saturday, having accom-

Cain fo- the Senate. As regards the rest
of the nominations they could in no

to leave it to their Executive Committee
to appoint the remainder of the ticket.
The said Committee, if we mistake not,
is prescntin our town to-day, Tuesday,

The party is evidently much divided and
