TUNNELINÖ THE CHANNEL.

THE TROPOED PLAN. OIQANTIO UNDERTAKING FULL PARTICTJI.AF.8 OFTHBWOBK DIFFICULTIES TO CONIK5D WITH. ' Tha Paria correspondent of the Philadelphia Bulletin writes: It is not only with the Suez canal that the name of M. Je Leasers Is connected, and fca bsen brought at thU moment prominently before the public. With great propriety the same individ ual who achieved the above named gigantic -work was deputed, on Monday last, to lay before tfce Academy of Science, at its cus tomarv s ttine. the deeply interesting re port of M. Lvtll3y upon the progress miking and tho remits hiiberto obtained in an other ur.d;r!aing oi even prouhr mKra tnde aid more peril. I reter to tbe prelim!' nary experiments and Investigation vhicu nave tean gomfr on tnroupnou Kummer, on both sides of the clan ni it!iivifw to the construction of tne submarine tunnel between this countrj and Greai Britain. As the Suf z canal qce - tion has rimtwhat eublded in interest aud i nnt rprh ir3 likelv to effer any r.ew phase nntil the mat er counee to be debated In tLe British parliament, I shall take tte opportnUliy oi uauairiiiuit wvma t" ...... from tfce mssae over, or rather, perhaps, thronen, tbe eands ot Eypt to that under the SiÜ which divides France from Enelanrt, and eiveashort resume of M. Lavalloy' donment resDCCtice it. M. Lavallt-y is, I hardlv av. the engineer under whoe Insnection the treliminary operations ar beioe carried on, on the part ot the French nrrdeetora. The plan adopted for tLe tun nel Itself Is. In the main, that of 8ir John Hark.baw, which proposes to make the tunnel start from a point of the French coast between Calais and a little fishing vil'aje called Sangatte, and strike the opposite shore in the bay ol St. Margaret, some five miles east ol Dover. The entire length FROM SHORE TO SH0BE will be about twenty-five miles. Bat the junctions, on both sides, with the French Northern line and the English, Chatham and Dover and Southeastern lines, res-pect ively, will be very long. In mid channel the tunnel will be about throe tundred and fifty feet below the surface of th sa at low water, and two hundred ieet below the bot torn of the sea itself. To attain thU great depth, the line, on quitting the lieach Northern railway, will enter, at a slight gradient, first a cutting, and then, plunging gradually into a tunnel, will find itself already at adeptb of some two hundred feet below the soil before it enteis beneath the water. Continuing still to descend for s-me three or four miles farther on with the dip of the sea itself, the tunnel will then slightly trend upward giin until it reach 8 the middle of the strait, the object ot this slope being to obtain drainaze for tho infiltration, which will thus be carried tack, first, to the point whera ttetlope began. and tbenca by a conduit to a reservoir at the shore, where it will be pumped out. The track of the other half of the lln, on tbe British side, will be precisely slmi'ar to that ottheFreneh. Tbe one great difficulty to be overcome, or rather the point to be de fined in making tbe tunnel bd1 deciding at once upon its practicability and its position wa4 to discover, with certainty, a suitable and sale medium through which to bore it The boting itself was only a secondary con sideratioD, for, with tte Brunton machin ery, almost anything in that way can now - be accomplished. With this view, the cliff on both tides have been carefully examined and compared at tbe points of disruption, and found to coincide very much as the veins of wood would be found to do in a tree ont of which a large notch bad been, cut, showing tbe grain at either extremity. ThessBtrata have been found to consist principally of three kinds, chalk and flint mixed, white chalk and gray chalk. Now, both the two first mentioned strata are found liable to be TRAVERSED BT FISSURES OR CREVICES, through whioh the eea might pour in; but tbe gray chalk is known to be absolutely impermeable. The first thing, therefore, was to find a spot where this stratum of gray chalk extends from oast to coast la eufii cient dimensio s to receive the proposed tunnel. A thickness of 200 feet above tbe roof of the tunnel was deemed amplo to guarantee the work against all dangerous infiltration; and a stratum of such propor tions was round to exist between the two points of tbe coasts above mentioned. The bottam ot tbe sea there is composed of white cnaiK, and aomt two hundred feet below is found tbe required gray ctalk. There re mained, therefore, only one other fact to be investigated and decided; but that was ot a very important and difficult character. Anv one who has lived in a mininz district muBt have heard of what miners call a "tiouble;" mat is, a sauaen oreas in tne seam of coal, caused by some Internal commotion. by which the continuity of tbe at am is suddenly cut off, and the two edzes thrown up or down to a considerable dis tance from each other. Tbe same thing might happen in a seam of gray chalk, and if so, would present a formidable, ii not even an insuperable obstacle to a safe pas ; sage through it. of tte proposed tunnel. It is mainly, therefore, with a view to guard azainst the risk of falling in with such an obstacle, tbat U e toilsome and minute pre umioary inve sugations or Jan summer bave been carried. Tbe great object to Le ascertained was whether any such "trouble as that above mentioned did ac tually occur lu tbe line ot the stratum ot gray chalk, which, it was found, extended in one Bhape or another from coast tc coast, as tue point iixea upon; to see whether any sadden rises or lulling?, bulg' ingsout orslnkinzs in at jce the line indi caiea r.s existence, jo enect this K Wis necessary to iospect minutely tho bottom of the eea from point to point by sound ings, to make bure tbat the level remained UNBROKEN AND UNDISTURBED. This operation was complicated by the difficulty of having to allow for the different depths of water whioh vary so constantly with the tide in the channel, and made new calculation nccttsiry every quarter of , an hour, to be sura that the bottom lay evenly and did not bulge out or sink in. No les than 1,522 soundings were mado.fir this purpose between tbe 10th of August and the 25th of September.' As far as at present ascertained, the result hes proved . tbat the stiata ia even and unbroken up to the French coast, with tbe exception of Tery light bulge ctca-j to the shore. On

- . tbeccaU, the soondlngs, as yet, have only

been carried to within five, miles of tbe shore. But for some twenty miles out the twenty-five it seems proved that the stratum ol a ray chalk Is found undisturbed 1n the conditlorsrqolred forth tunce). Tbe invcB.ieatiocs will te completed text year, after which it teem tbat the ereat on der'.aking itself may be commenced with all the c ance f success which prudence and I jre$ ignt can give it. m. Lav alley's calcu .atiou ot tLa enterprise, in a financial point of view, are eq u illy sanguine. K( ck oping the ia itT at iwoty-flve fcctiavs kilometre, r about three times the usu fare of Continental railways, be considers tbat the profit o i every passenger will b ten francs per f etd. According to nntura progression, h thinks tbat by tbe tirxo tbe tu eel is comp'e e J the yearly curat or ot travelers racing through It will bain cr used to a million, affording thus a lev cnue of ten ixnliioLS on the scare of pas

sengers alone, without counting that to be derived from merctaidise. But, indeed, it

s hard to say what tbe traffic may become when a direct line of a few hour's la estab lished between two capitals of some two millions of inhabitants each, without counting the restoi tbe world. HIDEOUS HUMANITY. LEPROSY IN TUE PACIFIC ISLES. THE ISLAND OF EXILE D INSCRIPTIONS AND HOBRID P1C1TJBE3 OF MISERY. A correspondent of the San Francisco Chioiiicle has interviewed the lepers and th6ir abode at the Sindwich Islands. A few I asa;cs ol hl9 horribly fascinating descrip tioas are given herewith: Ten yeara ago tue government first determined to separate tte lepers lrom the rest of the community. The island of Molokai, or Molokai aina pali (tbe land ol precipices,) between Oahu and Maui, wai chosen as tha leper's home. The island Is. cot large, but its vol canic walls nee out or the sfa to a vertical height of from 1.CC0 to 2,500 feet. These rocky and lichen covered walls and pinnacles of the island ot exile are gashed with gulches, forming natural inlets, and opening on to gratsv lawns ot limited extent, yet attractive beauty. Tbe landing is at Kalauppa, on the windward side ot the island, and a misera b!e place it if, too. Three miles from the landing is the leper village of Kalawao, on the verge of a most singular twenty-tbocsand-tcre plain, beautiful aa the Garden ot Eden. This plain is envi roned by tbe sea on one side, and. by a prec iplce on tbe other 2,000 feet high, which may be ascended by a zigzag bridle-path flung over the face of It, but which is so steep that cattle can not be brought down it, and all the meat supplies have to come by water to the landing. Within this cl arming area lives tbe isolated leprous community. They have all the forms ot a well-regulated state government, and, though almost a law unto themselves by reason ot their isolation from the central government, they are ceverthe less not without law, and their govern ment is entirely in the bands of their lep rous brethren. The governor is a leper and so are all the suborninate officials, and tbe usual routine of duty enables tbe more iutelligent of them to while away the time. which might otherwise hang oppressively oo their hands, till their true governor and law-giver, death, comes to their release. Near the landing there ii a small Cath olic churcb; and there is one in the village of Kalawso, as well as a Protestant cbapel, ministered to by a Dative leper pastor. The Catholic church Is in charge of Father Damiens, a priest, who, with a promising youthful outlook, Intelligent, cultivated, refined, eaciificed all this with a commendable zeal for his Master, and devotes himself cheerfully to the welfare of the poor n.-e.tturcs with whom he has voluntarily exiled himself from tbe society ot bis more lortimate follow-men. There are twelve bos pita! buildings, a fctoie, postt ffice, tcbool house and government offices, besides a few teat wooden "whitewashed cottages belonging to LEPERS OF RANK," among whom are Mrs. Napela and tbe lion. P. Y. Kaeo, Queen Emma's cousin. TSese persans are, of course, supplied with everything that money can piocurefor their comfort, and their presence may add some measure oi consolation to the poorer and more wretched portion of the community .to Know that the awful diseasa by which their sys tems is ravished is no respecter of persons. Governor Ragsdale was a native lawyer of some note la Iilo, who voluntarily came to tbe island of exile. Tte leper community numters about nine hundred, in all stages oi tne disease. Those wto are able cultivate the land, or engage in such other occupations aa they are able to perform, some ot tbem have cosy little boosts, with flowers scd shrubs about their doors, but, ot course. most of tbem live in tbe hospital buildings, which are on an elevated piece of land in closed by a fence. The buildings are wooden, and thoroughly whitewashed, and everything is neat and cleanly about tbem. Tbe algaroba trees are growing finely, and nature and art combine to make a most beautiful and lovely spot of the place chosen as tbe home ot tbe mopt hopeless set oi beings on earth. It sems al most a pity to pollute a place bo lovely by such miserable human marplots. And yet it is to be hoped tbat such beautiful natural surrounding are not without good effect upon tte minds or tne miserable creatures who live iu the midst of tbem. Some of tbe f dir sex, at least, seem possessed of their love of display bere as elsewhere, and decorate their heal and necks with leis ot flowers, and try to appear cresrlul and happy in tbe midst of their desolation. And we do not begrudge them ore single enjoyment, but wish we could ameliorate their condition a thousand fold. There have been some very interesting cases ot the strengtb of the tender lanslon in connection with these poor creatures. One beautiful wahice, with long, wavy, raven ringlets flowing richly acd prolusely alown her delicate Shoulders, was "engaged" to a kaoe ot no mean prepossessing apoearance. Tbe two were devotedly attached to each other, but at length ait wax discoveiei tbat he was a leper. He was eized by tbe officers and hustled down to tbe wbart and embarked for Molokai. Iiis wahine folio we i him to tbe water's edge, and would cave plunged in after htm, but on reflection cue tnoueut better or lt. Her ia-re at bathed in floods of tf art; the was bowtn down like a bulrush at the thought o. her Irreparable loss; she pined far ber departed Adonis; ana would not be comforted till nbe mads up ber mind to follow him to his place of exile. And, forsaking all the friends and epcrts of her youth, she FEOAMB A MARTTR to the lot of the man she loved, and now ministers to him such sweet consolation as only a true-hearted woman cm give to man in distress and 6ohtude. Bat, with all its relieving beauties and incidents, tbe leper's life is sufficiently miserable and w i etched. Borne ot tbem are tbe most bide ous creatures tbe human eye ever gazed upon. Their eyes are glazed and goggle tbeir faces swollen; their featuie distorted their ears, ccsea and jaws gone; tbei bands and feet rotticg and failing off by piecemeal; tbeir bodies covered with ulcers acd filled with holes, and tbey aerormea ana aecrepia witn sue and die ease. And yet tfce?e physical horrors are nothing to tbe mental suffering attendant upon tbe separation or Husbands and wlvee paren's and children, relatives and friends and the everlastlcg consciousness tbat tbey can never hope for any improvement iu their condition, cut must expect to become worse, till tbev finally Ml into the ever open jiws of tbe king of terrors. Bat even in mis swim apoae or norrors tbe?e poor victims of a dreadful dlea9 are not destitute wholly of tbe life and buss ngs or onuonooo. mere are over twenty children among them whose merry play and prattle must drive awv some of the gle om of those who are mote onsciou ot tbeir condiilon. But the poor itforau intioeetts ere not aware f ircir dieidfut state till buddlog into mmhood and wo marthcod tbey rind tht uielves blasted 1 the bud and ladlog out of life.

and purposes of lift? THE ZJBFBOUS BABT. In one corner of the hospital buildings, on a cozy little couch, lay a parentless babe. It was a half white. Its eyes were glassy blue, and its hair was gold tinted. Its upturned face and playful smile seemed to indicate that it longed for tbe kind caresses of some f ud and loving heart. And how could I do less than the Galilean who nestled in bis own sorrow-burdened bosom tbe coy little beads of tbe disciple-deserted Hebrew children? A parting k!s, and some little chit-chat, so precious to baby hearts, le!t the young innocent with sparkline eyes and cbirrupiug voice soon to pine away and wither like tbe iadd fa'ln flreis. In eipbt years", up tr April, 1874, 1.145 lexers were taken to Moltikxi, ill of whom died. As a rule tl:ee pooplo are ell cared lor by those in cbargoof thmi. Per haps it is net centrally known that there are white lepeis on the islands, but tuch is tlje case. Men who have not been wbat tbey should be, and their children, are sometimes iniected. Children may take tho die a-e by contact with native children having the disease, or by having a leprous nurse, whose breath they inhale. Only a short time bcfjre 3 our correspondent lelt tbe islands a prominent merchsut in Honolulu a white man sent his wife a white woman and bis throa white leprous children to Cali.'ornia, it being optional with lepers to go to Molokai or leave the islands. Tbe geutle man's name might be given, but it '.a presumable that the circumstances are sufficiently distressing to the family without adding to tbe weight of their sorrows by publicity. I believe It is a well established tact tba: a Chinaman died some Ums sgo in San Francisco with tbe leprosy, and it can hardly surprise any oue if tbe d:8ease should be transported from tbe islands to a port where there is sucb frequent intercourse as with San Francisco. Therefore seme precautionary measures against tbe introduction of such a fearful malady among Buch susceptible subjacts as the Chinamen, at least, might not be untimely or out of place. Tbe "Crucible" holds the boards well at the Park Theater. Mr. A. Oakey Hall shows manliest improvement, even within the short period in which he has bosn on the stage. He has energetically worked at curtailing: and improving the piece, and with good effect. The variety of opinions ont is acting has been great, but he ra been treated, perhaps, too much as would be Irving or Booth in a new role, and not as one uufckic k his first effort in a new branch ot art. ArtHts can not leap into life full armed like Minerva. They need f3rvke in he field to learn to boar their arm fitly. If Mr. Ilall continues to advauce as be has done within a week we mav toje to tee hrin as eminent in this asiu other profesd, Decemoer 27. aions. New York Ueral Tbe Ciccionati Methodist preachers on Monday wrangled lor several fcoura over the Bishop Ilaven matter, and finally ad journed without action. No one probably win complain of tee result or tbeir uenu-ra-ions, for in reality there exists no necessity or official action on tbe part of Bishop Haven'a ncclesia-rtical brethren. Had tbe Uiucinoatipreacbeis realized this lact before! brlDgi eg the matter np for consideration it would have been b9tier for all concerned. The universal disapprobation of Bishop Ha ven's course expressed throughout the country bas undoubtedly been a sufficient indication to him of tbe impropriety ot bis course, and further d s:u9-jion of tLe subject can scarcely result .In any gord.
