The Corinth Canal.

The canal across the Isthmus OF
Corinth, which is now practically COM
pleted, is one of those great under
takings first begun by the Roman EN-
perors. Like the removal of tho
obstructions at the Iron Gate on the
Danube, first begun by the Emperor
Traian and now being pushed to com.
plotion by the Austrian Hungarian
Government, the Corinth Canal, first
begun by the Emperor Nero, has
dragged along n course as penceful and
slow as that of II claim against the
Government From official figures il
appears that this canal IL about 3. 9
miles long and has minimum width
at the bottom of sixty-nine feet. 1t
does not cross the isthmus at the mar.
rowest or lowest place, but along n
line so chosen that the surface drain
age into the cut is the least possible
The average width at the top of the
cut is 2l3 feet, and it's greatest depth
is about go feet. The depth of wster
is twenty six feet or more ut all places.
The canal was dug through blue
marl principally, but in some places
there was some rock encountered.
When Hr.syk u.a9 ars. hegun tho sides
were left nearly vertical in many
places, but il was fonrd that there
was danger of caving or sliding, and
the increased expense to slope the
sides proved too much for the company.
Additional capital WAS secured,
another company formed, and the
work of widening has now been com
pleted. Avail runs along each side of
tn" cana, Tor practically it's entire
length. Lang breakwaters ut each
entrance kep the mouths from sitting
up and protect the vessels entering the
canal. Thac will he two large electric
lights ut eacl end and numerous small

Horses, when they kick, usually kick

prevents its. This is long iron bar,

turned down when n horse begins to

above the rear of his back, which, to
kick any way satisfactorily, the horse
must raise. As the bar, when down.

The bill to prohibit unlawful wearing

| motion of Mr.. Bird of Portland, to table
| the general law for the organization of
electric railroads, and amend it. He had
| tabled it on the passage to be engrossed.
Messrs. Twitchell and White for the
| railroad committee spoke against delay

favor of Mr.. Birds motion. He didn't
| think section 20 of the bill which re-
pealed all parts of railroad charters in

MI. Powers of Houlton, spoke against
this sweeping section of the bill, and
said that the section should not date
back further than the present legisla-
! ture.
Mr.. Twitchell said that if this provi-
sion was likely to work injury it was
strange that gentlemen interested in
electric roads had not protested against

Mr.. White said the clause would only
| affect charters for roads existing only on

The attempt to amend the bill was de-
