GERMAN TUNNELINe-The famous
Rothsconb berger water audit for draining
the Freiberg mines has been completed
after n period Of thirty years, and it is
said to be the greatest work Of the kind
that has ever been undertaken to aid the
explorations OF IA mining district. The
immense tunnel, as described, is ventilat-
ed by eight mir shafts, and lies some 400
feet below the deepest Freiberger water
audit. It has uniform hight Of nearly
l6 feet, with somewhat smaller breadth,
and, when completed, will be, with its
ramiications, 81 miles in length. The
gradient Of the floor is only DOB m. in
100 motres. This small gradient may
make it necessary to clear the tunnel oc-
casionaIly, but this can be accomplished
without difficulty with suitable boats and
dredges. Fge miles Of tunnel are per-
fectly straight, without a curve, and along
the whole line the curves are very light.
The remarkable fact also appears that
nearly the whole driving of this vast
tunnel, the rock throughout almost the
entire length Of which is solid gneiss, has
been done by hand.-Goid mn Ne,os.

A TRAMP who was stealing ride in an
empty car the other night on the Erie
road, attempted to jump off at Oxford. A
hook on the side Of the car, used for fast
ening the door, caught the unlucky fell
lows clothing at the waist and suspended
him IN mid air. The train dashed on and
he was carried to Greycourt, three miles
distant, when some ole saw him, stopped
the train Immediately, and the man was
taken from his very dangerous position.
There was not scratch on his person,
but the mental suffering he had endured,
expecting momentarily to be dashed to
pieces, completely overcame him.

to nominate the next Democratic candid.
ate for the Presidency. 1t would have
the National Committee meet, say in
Baltimore, on the day set, and each State
delegation meet in its own State, at some
place in telegraphic communication with
Baltimore; then esch delegation vote for
a candidate, and telegraph the name to
the National Committee, which shall an
noance the result of thea aggregate vote to
each State Convention. II there shall be
no election on the arst ballot, the voting
to proceed until nomination shall be

bargaining, manipulations Of delegations,
or carrying nominations by hurrahs would
be done away with.

WHILE General Grant was in Com
stantinopa the Sultan made him a gift
Of II beautiful horse. After his Turkish
Majesty had shown his palace and gar
den- TO his guest, he conducted him to his
stables. Io ordered his best horses to be
put on exhibition, and when they had
been sufficiently admired he told the gen
cral TO make selection, taking the one
which pleased him most. At first the
General could not consent to it, and warm
ly protested against the Sullan's gener-
o-lty. The Sultan's Minister OF War,
however, iuterposed, informing General
Grant that i he did not accept the gift his
Majesty would be much displeased. The
general thereupon selected "a dapple gray,
superb in form and having step that
would light with admiration the eye OF
any cavalier. The caparsons were
brought out, and the horse, in splendid
attire, wus formally presented to General
Grant. The Sultan, at his own expense,
has sent the horse to Marseilles, whence
lie will proceed to New York city.

the following item in regard to the dis
covery OF wild man on Goat Island, in
