The Troubles MultipIr.

The sad intelligence comes iron
Manila that there IS another insur
rection on. This one is in the Isl
and OF Jolo, one OF the Sulu group
Commissioner Schurman and Gen
Bates did not do good work in the
"Mahomedan" group, notwith'
standing they made large conces'
sions to secure peace. 1t seems
that each Of the islands has Sub
Sultan, who, besides his harem,
has a retinue OF male servants, all
OF whom are necessary to keep his
household in order. On the Island
OF Jolo the Sub-Sultan is Dato
Jokonino, who only has seven
wives, all OF whom are reported as
well behaved, proper persons,
though they live a polygamous
life. Mr.. Sthurman negotiated a
semi-treaty of peace with the Sub
Sultan and agreed to pay him
stipend of 500 a month. This was
considered a cheap get-Of, as 1t
was less than one-fourth oi the
sum paid to the Sultan OF Sulu.
Now it appears that nine OF
the men of the Sub-Sultan Of Jolo
we're killed and their bodies mutil'
ated by the followers of another
Sub Sultan, and now the insurrec-
tion is on. 1t also seems that the
Sub -Sultans have discovered that
the authorities Of the United States
Disseminated against them in the
amount of the stipend assured
them, and that, further, there is
Misunderstanding on the part Of
the Sub Sultan OF Jolo as to the
character Of the protection he was
vouchsafed by the compact into
which he entered to keep quiet and
give Uncle Sam peace in his new
dominions. The killing of the nine
men shows lack OF protection, and
now Dato Jokonino has inaugur
ated rebellion. Commissioners
Schurman, on his return from
treaty making WITH the Sultan OF
Sulu, spoke very encouraginglY OF
the work he had accomplished,
while General Bates was in ecstacy
over the part which the army had
PLAYED in warding off the dire con
sequences which would have fol-
10 wed the resistance of the Sultan.
True, the representatives OF the
United States had given up to the
taste of the Sultan in two particu-
Iars-that of polVgamY and slavery
neither Of which can exist in the
United States. But then, customs
in that part Of our new possessions
are dissimIlar to those in this coun-
try, and long use of slaves and
polygamous wives were luxuries
which the Sultan and the Sub-Sul-
tans could not get along well with
out, and as peace was the object OF
their visit the American treaty
makers yielded, not having much
sympathy with those who object
to the two institutions. Besides,
they @ere so far away that the
stencil from the foul institutions
would never reach the nostrils Of
those who cannot make it compat-
Ible with liberty and decencV to
approve the practice Of those vices.
And so, in our new possessions
there is Insurrection. There is
comfort in the thought, however,
that what killing is done, our own
fellow citizens -soldiers-will not
be the victims.

EXPLORING A LONDON TUNNEL.
Dafky Ne5OS London, Oct. S.

Daily WeWs London, Oct. S.
A disused London tunnel that might
have puzzled posterity has just been
explored in the nick of time. Two and
forty years ago, a sort of pneumatic
subway was made between Euston and
the General Post Office for the trans
mission OF the mails. II failed, and the
guilty parties promptly closed both ends
and said no more about it, The tax
payer, after his wont, forgot its exist
ence, and the tunnel itself might have
passed out Of remembrance but for one
of those ingenious persons whom this
country always produces on an emer-
gency. Mr. ThreIfall, the gentleman in
question, was able to tell a local club
last night that he had gone through the
tunnel from end to end. It's discovery
seems to have been the object of his life.
He had lost all hope when he dis overed
an old lady in the country who had some
of the plans. With their aid, he has
crawled on his dread errand through
two miles aud a quarter Of darkness and
damp, with risk of suffocation, one
would suppose, at every step, Steadily
crawling, far, far below our feet as we
have stroIled along the Viaduct, Hol-
born, and Tottenham Court Road, he
has tracked this subterranean fugitive
throughout its course. 1t is ofiron tubing
four feet high and six inches wider, and
is said to be in almost perfect condition.
The explorer proposes that it should be
put in thorough repair, and, with the aid
Of electric traction, far more manage
able agency than pneumatic force, revert
to its original purpose. Mr.. Threliall
was just in time, In few years more,
when some stroke of a pickaxe had
revealed the tunnel. the Romans would
InialliblY have had the credit of it, and
where would the nineteenth century
have been then?

a weight OF IS kilos, is overloaded, and
that the COssacks, who have to find their
own horses, are only mounted on
animals which have been rejected for
service in the cavalry of the line.
1t is Known that Russia, in the event
of war, relies greatly on the moral and
material effect to be produced by cavalry
raids carried out on a scale OF unpre-
cedented magnitude, penetrating deeply
into the enemy's territory, dominating
it far and wide, and holding or threaten
ing his waterways and railways, and
thus efectually paralyzlng his means of
obtaining supple or effecting junction
OF his forces, With such purposes in
view 1t is easy to understand why the
cavalry Of Russia is maintained in num-
bers which dwarf by comparison the
mounted forces of her neighbors, and
why its composition and organization
have proceeded on peculiar lines, which,
however suited to the traditions and
national bent OF the Russian, and more
especially of the Cossack, have not been
followed, perhaps could not have been
followed. by any other nation in the
organization and training Of it's cavalry.
