REMAINS OF A STRANDED VESSEL FOUND IN
THE WIIDERNEss.-Int the Sierra Nevada noun
tains have been discovered the timbers OF a
stranded vessel, resembling those OF a Chinese
Junk, high up In the mountains, between MIN
eral King and the headwaters OF Kings river
The sound portions OF tie timber resemble cam
phor wood, and IL Is said Stfll retain faint
smell. The fastenings are OF copper; the rig
glDg, &c, are OF course all gone. number OF
bones, supposed to be human, were also found
IN the vicinity, and upon the adjacent slopes
there is abundant evidence OF the previous oc-
equations OF the waters In the shape OF shells,
as wei as the occasional finding OF petri1ed
hsh. That this valley has at one time been an
Inland sea Is admitted by biologists. but that
these waters were nayigated by Celestial sea-
men one or two thousand years ago has never
been claimed, even by the Chinese themselves.
But these same people do claim to have been
the original discoveries OF this country and
this find seems TO give color to the claim. II has
also been claimed by them that vessels OF theirs
have been wrecked on this coast, and that Dor.
tons OF the crew have returned TO China; but
that the wreck itself should be located, and
that this location should prove to be In Tularo
county, is surely an interesting fact, inviting
the inspection OF the curious and the solution
OF the scientific. -ICatifornia Correspondence

The New Tunnel Through the a,,..

Nj. Say, the French Minister OF Finance nae

Zeflano, 10 inspect the site OF the proposed
Slmplon Tunnel, which is. when completed m

Italy. Should he report fayorabiy upon the
project, IL Is probable the French government
willgrant subsidy OF $1,000 600 francs In ala Of
the undertaking. The federal government and
several or the canton governments OF Swltzer-
land have already extended aid TO the amount
OF l3.50o0O0 francs, and the Swiss Occidental
railroad, which will be the connecting line has
made grant or 5,0o00 900 francs. The capital OF
the company that is TO do the work IS 10 500 600
francs, so that there Will be total working
fund or $1,000, 600 francs, which, It is estimated

OF the latter country is willing to 60 to consid-

tunnel which will be the most direct OF the
three and which will shorten the distance be-
tween Paris and Milan by more than 100 miles,
promises TO bring about this desired result.
Admirable facilities exist on both sides of the
mountains for obtaining hydraulic power with
which to make the borings, ana IL is estimated
that the tunnel VIII be completed and the line
be IN working order in less than seven years.
