Some light is thrown upon the question whether
n marine life tends to kindness and amiability by
the conduct of bold captain who is now engaged
in sailing the raging Erie, when brought face to
face with an awful emergency. While his boat was
gracefully gliding by the City of Rome the three
mules attached TO II suddenly baked. What fol-
lowed is related by The Rome Sentinel "Ihe ina
bity of the driver to start them 1.-THE mulesl so in
censed the captain that he discharged him and
threw his boots and clothing into the canal That
captain would do well to hire an ablc-bodied man
to watch his temper If he doesn't he mag live to
become a erocious pirate of the sort that scut-
tie helpless ships that sail the Spanish Main.

Mr. John c. GoOdridgc ir., thinks that If the
Straits of Belle Isle closed or damned the re-
suit would be to divert the Arctic current which
now flows through them, compelling it to pass east
ward sinking beneath the Gulf Stream southeast
of Newfoundland. The effects Of this change he
thinks would be to give tie Atlantic Coast a mild
and genial climate, converting New-England into II
region "a balmy rs the Soath of France and max
ing Nova Scotia comfortable Mr. Goodrldgc also
thinks it possible that tho diversion of this arctic
current would produce II detection of the Gulf
Stream southwark. leaving Great Britain, Ireland
and Scandinavia out in the cold If the Irish agi-
t4tors are willing to sacrifice the genlalIty of the
Emerald Isle ior the sake Of revenge on periidlOus
Albion, here Is their opportunity. 1t Is true that
the undertaking. though practicable, is not cheap.
MIR. Go,drIdge estimates that to fill tho Straits of
Belle Isle at their narrOwest part, where they are
ten miles wide and one hundred and fifty feet deep,
will cost > 40 OO0 600 Probably this is far too low
an estimate. he work might cost 100000, 600.
But what an incentive such a project would DO to
the maintenance of the SkIrmlshing Fund AS to
the United States il Is to he feared that il cannot
be persuaded into guaranteeing Mr. Goodrdge's
brilliant enterprise.

The Governor asserts that the contract of
the State with the Central Pacific Railroad
Company, relative to transfer by the latter
to the former of certain lands, and the car
rvine OF State messengers, has been vio-
lated er the part of the corporation. But
wherein, he does not specify. His remarks
suggest the conclusion that the contract
has not been kept in any respect, when the
contrary is the truth. The facts la that
aslatter, when developed in Court, VIII not
Justify the remarks of the Governor, This
subject we have frequently treated and ex-
planned, maintaining that no wrong has
been done the State, and that if there has,
the State has ample remedy as provided in
the bill for this continuing contract. Re
ferring 30 the collection Of taxes from rail
road companies he advises more stringent
laws. He fails to show, however, how even
railroad companies are to be prevented
from asserting any rights they may have in
the Courts of the country, or upon what
basis of justice they shall be compelled to
suffer wrong in the matter OF taxation. He
fails to point out that the Supreme Court
of the United States has unanimously APP
proved the policy adopted by the chief law
officer relative to the pending suits for
railroad taxes, and thus practically con-
demned the refusal to avail of the large
sum paid in by the companies. 1t was
reasonable to expect that the Executive
would have referred to this matter and
have attempted to justify the course of the
Administration. The failure to refer to it
smacks OF stubbornness unseasoned by
wisdom. As a whole the message is COM
monplaee, with some good suggestions, but
mainly noticeable for lack of vigor in deal
ing with the questions taken up, and lack
of breadth of comprehension of State ques-
tons. Its omissions are by far the most
significant features
