Great Engineering Feats.

The tunrel of Mount st. Gothard, the
greatest engineering work of the kindin
the world, has just been finished. The
object of it is TO connect the railroad
systems of Germany, Switzerland and
Italy, and its cons jruction was deemed
necessary in order to offset the COM
mercial advantages that were acquired
by France in the building of the Mount
Cents tunnel, and Austria with her
road across the Semmering, which are
the connecting railroad links for those
two countries with the same portion
of Europe. The chief works of this
kinl in the world are four in number
namely, the Hoosac and Sutro tunnels
in the United States and the above-men-
toned. The Mount st. Gothard is the
longest of all, its length being more
than eight miles; the Sutro is the
shortest, being less than four miles.
The Hoosac tunnel 4.75 miles in length,
and the Mount Gents about seven miles.
All of these great works have been con-
structed in the interest of trade and COM
merce, and with the Atlantic cable, the
Pacific railroads, the Suez canal, and
the Panama canal, when IT shall have
been built, will be among the great in
dustrial monuments of the century. l
the tunnel between France and England
is ever built it. will, of course, surpass
anything ever attempted. Our own
tunnel under the North river, If pushed
to completion, will hold no Insignificant
place beside the works we have men
TONED; nor in such an enumeration
should our great bridges, like those OF
St. Louis, Niagara Fills and Brooklyn.
be forgotten. In works of practical
utility more has been accomplished in
The nineteenth century than perhaps in
MI the centuries that have preceded it,

A Remarkable Operation.

Some weeks ago Thomas Coulter, OF
New York, had nose put on him by
killing a middle finger, taking out the
bone and aflixing it to the bridge of his
nose. A detailed account of the opera
tion was published at the time. About
three weeks ago, says the New York
Herald, the plaster of paris bandage was
removed from his face, and careful ex-
animation showed that the finger had
grown fast to the site of the former nose.
DIR. Sabine at once decided to sever the
hand from the two joints which were
thereafter TO serve as nose. Tommy
was rendered partially unconscious by
the use of anesthetics, and the amputa.
tion was performed without much
trouble. During the two months in
which the finger had been growing to
the face the blood had retreated from
the hand and arm because of its pecu-
liar position, leaving them as white as
snow. Shortly after the operation the
tube through which Tommy bl leathed
was removed from its position in the
larynx. The patient at present is in
peculiar position. 1t order to have
shapely nasal organ the second joint OF
the amputated finger was crooked so
that the elbow forms the top of the
nose. The end of the finger was stitched
to the upper lip in a neat manner. The
next step in the process was to remove
pieces of skin from the cheeks and fore
head, and allow them to grow on the
lacerated and stitched portions of the
new nose. The consequence is that
there are no nostrils at present and
Tommy breathes through his mouth
and ears. In order TO avoid this incon-
venient mode OF inhaling and exhaling
an operation is shortly to be performed
with view of providing that new or.
gan with nostrils. Coulter's articula-
tion is good, but his voice sounds as
though he were speaking through a
rams horn. The surgeons in charge of
the case are confident that they will be
able to remove this impediment very
easily. The wonderful patience which
Tommy displayed during his trying or
deal enabled them to operate with more
success than in ordinary cases. 1t is
proposed to remove all scars from his
face by the process of skin grating.

About Norway.

Not land flowing with milk ard
honey; not a land of olive-yards and
vineyards, of southern skies and etfemi-
nate luxuriance, of Spanish dances and
Italian serenades, of soft intrigues and
quick revenges that wait upon life itself.
Not land of fragrant breezcs, where
the nightingale sings to his mate, while
the moon with her train of satellites in
stately dignity rises in the dark blue
dome, bathing the earth in a silvery
flood, the while lovers pace romantic
ruins washed by broad flowing Rhine,
or a sterner Danube, or linger in the
bowers on the banks of the soft blue
waters of a Moselle; lovers whose lips
are silent for bliss that is filing their
hearts with nm emotion for which an
eternity would be too short, and life,
alas, often proves but too long. Not
this. But land OF eternal SHOWS, whose
mountain-tops are fraught with mys'
terry of silence that is never broken,
where the foot Of man never falls; OF
gigantic icebergs, of rushing streams, OF
grand waterfalls, and mighty cataracts
that seem to increase and multiply as
you progress through the country. A
land which owes everything to nature
and nothing to man; where ruins are
not, and the nightingale's song is un-
heard, and bowers of roses may be read
about, but scarcely seen. A land scan
tily peopled, but peopled by men and
women honest and fearless, simple and
genuine, frank and hospitable-until
day will come when mixture with the
world which seeks them more and more
year by year, may give the faults OF that
world, and take from them their best
heritage-a single eye, simple faith, an
uprightness of purpofe rare rs beautiful
after six thousand years of leveling. A
land where railroads are scarce, and
travelling is long and laborious, butvery
pleasant. A land not hampered by tile
refined luxury of the age, the squander-
ing of wealth in pomp and vanity, pur-
pie and fine linen; but land OF stern
realities, where wealth is rare, and each
mans Inheritance is labor and toll. A
land with bright bracing air; u coast
iron-bound and full OF wonders. A land
that reminds US in measure OF that city
that hath no foundations, where thereis
"no night" for here during some por-
ton of the year, the sun never sets, and
darkness falls not.--ArgoIy.

A Story Of the Cotton Gin.

Some man, says Georgia paper, will
yet make reputation in writing the
romance OF the cotton gin. We all know
how poor Yankee tutor came to teach
the children of General Nathaniel
Greene in Georgia, riding from Con-
necticut in sulky, and seeing the diff
Guilty attending the handling of cotton,
then produced in small quantity, put
his wits to work and evolved the rude
hint of the gin now in use. l heard &
story the other day from Mr.. John M.
Guerrard, of Savannah, who l think
got it from Mr.. nightingale, the son-in.
law of General Greene.
The story runs that one day at din.
ner given by General Greene, some Gu.
riosity was expressed to see the inven.
tion of young Whitney, which was
then being operated in a little house
near by. After dinner the company
went out to the house and Whitney was
exhibiting his seed machine, when il
was discovered that he had to stop il
every few minutes in order to clear the
cotton away from the cylinder. Mrs.
Nightingale observing the annoyance
that this caused and the embarrassment
of the young inventor, with the quick
wit of woman, took her silver comb
from her hair, and pressing its teeth
gently against the cylinder, cleared the
flint away as it turned. To this gentle
act of courtesy the world is indebted
for one of the most valuable ideas con-
nected with the gin.
Colonel Tom Howard contends that
the invention of Whitney was really
very unimportant, and consisted simply
in the use of one cylinder instead OF
two, substituting bent teeth for the
second cylinder. The really important
progress made in the cotton gin was
made by Wilkes county man, who
substituted the saw for the bent teeth.
1t took long time in those days to get
patent, and while waiting for it the
inventor was terribly worried by men
who were trying to get the points of his
invention that they might pirate it
Colonel Howard says that some men
disguised themselves as women, and
then gained an entrance to the old out
house, in which the gin was hidden and
obtained knowledge of its parts,
Neither Whitney nor the Wilkes
county man made any profit out of the
invention.

TMenly.ille Years as Emperor.

The car ofall the Russias has been
an emperor for twenty-five years. He
ascended the throne on the death OF his
father Nicholas on the 2d Of March (old
style February l9). 1855. The emperor
is now in the siNty.sccond year of his
age. He was born April 90 Gold style
~, 1918, and was nearly thirty-seven
years of age when he ascended the
throne. His reign has not only been
long but eventiul. His country was en-
gagged in the Crimea war, when the
death ofhis father devolved the cares OF
empire upon him. In 1861, on the sixth
anniversary of his accession to the
throne, he declared the freedom of the
serfs. In 1863 there was an uprising in
Poland, and in 1864 the czar in order to
weaken the influence Of the great mobiles,
liberated the Polish serfs.
Toward the close of 1865 a war was
concocted between Russia and Turkes-
tan. This conflict dragged along for a
couple years. In 1867 the emperor sold
Russian America to the United States.
During the Franco-German war the
car declared that he did not consider
himself bound by the limitations in re-
gard to his use of the Black sea placed
upon him by the treaty of Paris in 1856
In 1871 conference was held in Lon
don which modified the treaty in ac.
cordance with his desires.
In 1873 Khiva was conquered by the
Russians. The recent war between
Russia and Turkey is fresh in every
ones recollection. Russia was victor
ious in the field, but her diplomatists
lost all that her soldiers had won.
Europe practically combined against
Russia after the treaty of San Stefano,
and in the treaty of Berlin compelled the
conquerOr to part with her conquests fol

bors.
Russia is, of course, dissatisfied with
her position. Germany anticipates war
in the near future. Official declarations
are made in favor of peace, but acts are
against its being maintained.
On the whole, the future must look
gloomy to the emperor. Insurrection at
home and foreign war are threatened.
After twenty-five years of experience in
exercising supreme power he finds him.

A Clever Operation.

A curious occurrence has lately taken
place at the Gardens. One night one Of
the lions was observed to be in state
of great tribulation, rolling about, and
trying to get something out of his mouth
with his paws. Upon examining the
animal to see what was the matter, Mr..
Bartlett found that great bone had be.
come a fixture in the poor brute's
mouth. The difficulty was to remove
it, as the lion was in fearful temper.
This was done by getting the lion into
shifting den" where his face would
not be very far from the bars. II was
then ascertained that the object in the
lions mouth was the spongv, round
bone, as big as a cricket-ball, which
forms the hip-joint of the horse. The
lion had had part of haunch of horse
for dinner, and in amusing himself with
the bone first got his upper large canine
tooth into the soft part of the bone, and,
biting on it, the corresponding canine
tooth in the lower jaw came through so
far into the bone that it nearly met with
the point of the upper tooth; the jaw
thus became fixed. The animal was
thus prevented from taking food or
water Mr.. Bartlett, with a great deal
of tact and maneuvring, managed to get
this bone out of the lions mouth, and
lucky he did so, as it was found that the
long projecting portion of the bone was
pressing hard upon the lions tongue.
THIS is the third clever operation in
dentistry that Mr.. Bartlett has per-
formed first, removing big tooth
from the hippopotamus; second, oper-
ating on the base of the tusk of the big
elephant; third, taking horses leg
bone out of the liens mouth. .-LnGa

COurage in Disease.

Many life has been saved by tht
moral courage Of the sufferer. 1t is not
alone in bearing the pain Of operations
or the misery of confinement in sick
room this self-help becomes of vital mo.
ment, but in the monotonous tracking
of weary path, and the vigorous dis
charge of ordinary duty. How many a
victim Of ofincurable disease has lived on
through years Of suffering, patiently and
resolutely hoping against hope, or, what
is better, living down despair, until the
virulence of a threatening malady bas
died out, and it has ceased to be de.
structive, although its physical charac-
teristics remainedP This power of
"good spirits |" is a matter Of high mo-
ment to the sick and weakly. To the
former it may mean the ability to sur.
vive, to the latter the possibility Of out.
living, or living in spite Of disease. 1t
is, therefore, OF the greatest Importance
to cultivate the highest and most buoy
ant frame of mind which the conditions
will admit. The same energy which
takes the form of mental activity is
vital to the work of the organism.
Mental influences affect the system, and
ajoyous spirit not only relieves pain,
but increases the momentum of life in
the body. The victims Of disease do not
commonly sufficiently appreciate the
value and use of "good spirits" They
too often settle down in despair when a
professional Judgment determines the
existence of some latent or chronic
maiady. The fact that it is probable
they v Il die of a particular disease casts
so deep gloom over their prospect
that through fear of death they are
all their lifetime subject to bondage.
The multitude of healthy persons who
wear out their strength by exhausting
journeys and perpetual anxieties for
health is very great, and the policy in
which they indulge is exceedingly short
sighted. Most of the sorrowlul and
worried cripples who drag out misera-
bic lives in this way would be less
wretched and live longer if they were
more hopeful. 1t is useless to expect
hat any one can be reasoned into
lighter frame of mind, but it is desirable
that all should be taught to understand
the sustaining, and often even curative,
power of "good spirits. ."-London
