The Port OF SebastopoI.

The Russian government it is claimed Is the
most despotic one in the world, especially In
regard TO the public works. When the first
railroad was proposed, the engineers drew up
their plans 20 that the many important places
between Moscow and st. Petersburg should
be benefited by the road, but the emperor
simply drew a straight line between the two
cities, and the road had to be built according
TO the imperial ideas
1t is now intended to restore the port of Sc
bastopol 10 its prestine Importance as a trad
ing and maritime center and to carry this
into effect the entire commercial port is to be
transferred from the southern to the northern
part of the bay. This decision practically in
wolves the transfer Of the whole Of the trade
ot Sebastopd from the south harbor, the part
5esieGcd by the allied troops in 1854, to one Of
the inlets ON the northern side. The former
viii then be used exclusively for naval pur-
poses, and two or three years will suffice TO
render 1t as full Of activity and as power.
ful h il the time preceding the Crimean war
The cost OF the transfer Of the port will not
fall short OF 81 900 600 to the state, which docs
not include the Losses incurred by the riser-
chants and steamship owners, who will re-
cesve no compensation from the government

The subject of the introduction of me-
tallic railway ties as an impcrishable
and economical substitute for the pre-
sent article has led an authority in the
line to write that after much track
walking and observation of the condi-
tion of wooden cross tics in various
stages of decay, he concludes that the
principal cause of their short life is no
natural decay, but decay fastened by
frequent laceratIon and breaking of the
wood fibre by the rail spike, the break
age in every instance being from the
surface, which is unsheitored from
weather and subjected to constant
strain from passing trains, Experiments
in stone and iron ties, he says, have
proven very unsatisfactory, the wood
tie beng declared by railroad men une-
qualled. Anything that will render the
service Of the latter more lasting must
p owe a great boon. His own observa-
ton leads him to believe that rail
chair which will prevent the mutiation
of the tie in question, and at the same
time avoid the strain and wave motion
impaired to rails by passing trains,
will add to the average life OF the wood
tie nearly one hundred per cent, and
would at the same time decrease the
cost of track maintenance.
