The proposed tunnel through Mont Cenis, which

tiful. Messrs, Hawks, Crawshay & Co.» have con
stucted a machine, very similar in appearance to a
small locomotive engiue. without a vertical funnel,
however, which is contrived to turn a large wheel
in the front with enormous power. This wheel carries
» series of cnttiDK knivoi, formed of teeth of the best
steel, which are intended to bore, auger-fashion, into
the rock, while rakes, attached to the machine, will re
move the fragment* of rock detached by the knives.
The engine will bo propelled forward by its own steam
power, the smote from the furnace escaping by a hori

Mr. Auguste Botritew, a younger brother of the

in Boud street, The ptfywt jg galled “ Going to tho
Fair,” and tho story is t;lft at a glance, in a very lively
and picturesque maimer. The scene is near Auvergne,
and this town iB just seen over the rising foreground.
The cattle are arranged in three group", one goingaway,
another approaching, and one resting; and the move
ment of tho figures is admirably shown by the clever
drawing and ioMshorienkip of the flock of sheep and
oxen coming on ii the middle ground, another of cows
and an angry bull nearer, and thOße which have passed
and are being hurried on by the girl carrying a basket of
live ducks on her arm. A very self.asserting personage,
too, is the hull eliut in his paddock, who roars at his
jival in the drove. Farther A way, towards the moutl
tains, we see across the heathery plain many little par
ties hastening on to the fair. The cattle painting is ex
cellent in this picture, and though the figures are so
large, the relief is obtained by very modest means; there
is no tumping on of tu lor, and consequently the drawing

The Royal gir.x.MAXLAL.—Tho means which
George the Fourth** ministers took to relieve him of the
necessity of writing liis signature so many thousand
limes was to affix a stamped signature, by certain com
missioners by the authority of Parliament. The act
stipulated that the stamp (which wa* a fac simile of tho
King’s signature) should be affixed in the King’s pro
aence. After tbc- act was parsed, the commissioners duly
assembled at Windsor Castle for the purpose of stamping
the King’s sier ature to the immense arrears of public
documents. None of •he commissioners had had any ex
perience in using a stamp, and, innocently enough, they
commenced with ordinary writing-ink, and made a mess
of it. possible specimen of smudge and blotcliwaa
produced, but nothing like the King’s signature. One
after the other the c< inmi&Bionors tried their hands, the
late I’uke of Wellington, who was one, making as great
a mess of it na any of the others. At length, with hands
covered wi*h ink. and clothes and pocket-handkerchiefs
stained. and even fimaa amimred, tho royal ootaftnesUnera
were fairly beater, acd inclined to give up the stamping
as impracticable, when houio one quietly suggested that
perhaps printing-ink would answer better, and of course
with the edoption of this hint ended all practical diffi

Vital Statistics of 1861. —1 n the year 1861
the births in Great Britain were 802,593, and the
iiwtdutiu 497*624, bo that the natural increase was
304,974. This is the largest number of births that
©ver occurred in any year in Great Britain, but
happily not the largest number of deaths. Upon
an average, 2.200 children were born every day,
®1 an hour; and 1.3G3 persons died daily, or almost
one every xmbtite. It id impossible to say how far
the natural increase of the population was reduced
t>y migration, because there iB no record of the
immigration; all thnt vre know is that 91,770 emi
grants left the shores of the United Kingdom last
year, of whom about 39,000 were of English of
Scottish origin. There is in Scotland a rather
higher birth-rate and a lower death-rate than in
England, and yet a much lower rate of increase
in the population, showing that a much larger
proportion of the people emigrate either beyond
£©&£ or to Ollier parts of the United Kingdom.
The influence of season in the proportion of births
was, as usual, quite marked in 1861. The greatest
number of births always takes plaoe in the first half
of the year; last j ear the number was greatest of*
all in the spring quarter—April to June. The re
turn of marriages is not yet complete for England;
the largest number are always in the last quarter;
in Scotland, June nnd December are the favorite
months for matrimony. The returnsshow, as ever,
how much the icbftbitantof the town has to contend
against agencies hurtful to life, from which his
country neighbor is comparatively free; the differ
ence is especially striking in Scotland, where in
the town districts 24 persons in every 1,000 died in
the year, and only 10 in tho country districts —tWO
in tbe country to three in the town. In Glasgow
and Dundee very nearly half the deaths were of
children under five; and the children in tho3e towns
were literally decimated in the year, for, as nearly
as can be ascertained without the detailed census
returns, out of all tho children under five years of
age about one in every ten died. At the Royal Ob
servatory, Greenwich, the mean temperature of the
year was 49. i deg.; at the Ordnance Survey Ofiiae,
Edinburgh, 49 deg. In Saotland, the average of fid
stations of the Meteorological Society Bhowed 1,671
hours of sunshine in the year, whioh would have
given for four days in every week, eleven hours of
sunshine in the summer half of the year, and five
m tbe other half. The highest temperature in
England was 89 5 in August, in Scotland Bfi 5 in
dune; the lowest in England 1 deg , in Scotland
3 7—both in January. England rather suffered in
many parts from want of rain, and the total amount
Collected at the Royal Observatory waa only 90.9
inches; in Scotland generally the average was
45.07 inches, and in some parts the fall was very
excessive; at Tyndrum, in Perthshire, (with tho
returns for April deficient.) it was of tho enormous
depth of 191 inches, more than 11 feet—n very do=
luge. JS6I had its but with the births above the
average, and tho deaths below it, it ought not to be
counted a bad year.
THE CITY.
The “Continental Dinner”—The
BILL TO BE RAID.—On Saturday in the District
(.'oiirl, Jiid<26 SllftHWMd ll&liVfefed au opinion in llto
matter of the application for au injunction to prevent the
City Controller from countersigning the warrant for tlie
dinner given at the Continental Hotel ou the 22d of
February.
On the nmiu point raised in the bill praying far tli9 in
junction. the opinion of tho court is as follows:
It is alleged that a considerable part of the appropri
ation in question was designed to cover the expenses
of an entertainment, viz: eating, drinkiug, aud smoking,
provided by Councils for themselves and their guests.
On the argument, it was urged that if it was not illegal
for the Couucils to provide an entertainment of eating,
drinking, and smoking, for the Governor and members of
tbe Legislature, that the membors of Councils and officers
of tho city could not lawfully pat ticipate in such enter
tainment at the cost of the city.
It is enough to say that the bill nowhere distinctly al
iened that members of Council? and officers of the city
ilid in fact participate in tho entertainment provided for
by ordinance. It merely alleges that it was designed to
cover such expenses. We cam ot say that any such de
sign appears on the face of the ordiuauce. It is in words
confined to tbe ♦* proper entertainment of the Governor
ami members of the Legislature,” as abjact which la no
where prohibited. We are asked to declare the ordinance
itself invalid, and to arrest any warrants drawn under it,
and that without the allegation of any illegal expense
1 avieg been actually contracted or incurred, but merely
that such was the design of the ordinance, not expressed
on ita face.
It is plain that we cannot audit the accounts of this en
teitaimmnt. We have it not befoTeus. That duty, as
we have seen the law, has devolved upon the Controller
of the city, and he is armed with full power for that pur
pose. if the construction placed bv tlio complainants
upon the 24th section of tho act of May 13,18-36, is cor
rect, it wilt be the duty of the Controller, before couu
tir.Mgniug any warrant, to scrutinize and audit the account
presented with it, and to reject all items of charge for
“entertainment, eating, drinking, or smoking” of any
member of Council or ofllcorof the city.
We are not here called upon to give an opinion as to
U'hUhur such construction ho correct. Wa ought UOt iO
assume, without authority, to direct the Controller in
the proper dischaige of his duties. He is no party to
tljir* bill, and any opinion wc might express, being extra
judicial, would neither be bindiug upon him, nor could it
protect him from liability.
Ha rkas Corpus Case and Contempt
UK UOORT.—On Saturday, in the Court of Quarter
ttemons, a case was heard by Judge Allison, on a writ of
habeas corpus, involving the custody of a girl mu© years
of age. The mother took out the writ, and tho story, a?
told to tho court, established that the relator, who re
sided in New York, followed her daughter to this city,
after ascertaining that the child was one of the “Seven
Sisters,” lately performing in this ciiy in military evo
lutions. Sho had been brought from New York, and her
mother ascej tainiug her whereabouts, followed her to
I’iiilsdflrliin, nv4 procured it writ of kabe&a corpus, w hisk
was served upon Mr. Carter, who had charge of tbe
troupe. On Friday, when the mother called upon Mr.
Carter in reference to the matter, she was informed by
Mr. Carter that the child was where neither tbe mother
nor the court would be able to find her. This was com
municated to Judge Ludlow, yrhp directed Mr. Carter
to be taken idto custody. On Saturday morning lie made
return to tho writ that at the time of the service the girl
was in his custody, but that since that time she had been
removed without his consent.
• Hiscounsol stated turtber that the wife of Mr. Cartsr
had taken the child to Wilmington, and that she had been
tefagraylud and instructed to return, aid would probably
reach the city in the afternoon or to-day. As it did not
appear that the removal had been without Mr. Carter’s
knowledge, Judge Allison directed him to be heldiu cii3-
tedy until the child was forthcoming.
A Protest eroji the Cock Ex-
a mnellng of tlio Corn Evolianga Asso

“ tho Philadelphia and Eastern Transportation Com

which it is feared wiU ojwate prejudicially to the 59m

Mr. C. J. Hoffman presided, and a special committee
was appointed for tbe purpose, consisting of Messrs. Geo.
L. Bushy, Henry Budd, and James Steel, who submitted
the following preamble and resolutions, which were
unanimously agreed to:
- WTrerecs, A bill (No. 648) is now under consideration
at Harrisbmg, entitled “an act to incorporate the Phila
delphia and Eastern Transportation Company,” which
proposes to confer extraordinary powers upon ceitalu
corporators for tho purposes of transportation from •* Phi
ladelphia to any placo of placet; in aay State or States in
the United States,” Ac., Ac.,and
Whereas, TLe powers thus asked for being of a very
loose, unusual, and unrestricted character, may, if
granted, prove highly injurious to Philadelphia, and tend
to convert her into a way station, or otherwise operate to
her disadvantage; therefore,
Ttsfc the Com Exchange A3nocift'Kon*be
lif-ving that the additional facilities for transportation
tw« niun uc-rOrO w-wm city are a line or lines of steani

of the above-named bill, until, at least, its drift and mean
ing can be satisfactorily ascertained to be not unfavora
ble to tho ibtere&Uof Philadelphia.
Sentenced.— A man named Stiles,
com icted of keeping a disorderly house at the corner of
Race and Eighth streets, was called up for sentence, in
the Criminal Court, on Saturday afternoon. An appeal
was mado by Mr. Bonham, counsel for tho prisoner, and
the plea of slight insanity was set up in mitigation of
pum6hment. Evidence ‘was adduced that Stiles came
from Rorristown about six months ago; he is a black
smith by trade; be paid $175 to John Dickinson for one
tonrth of the establishment, and subsequently agreed
wiih him to pay 8250 for the remainder. At or about
this time, William R. Dickinson, a brother to John,
claimed the property. The defendant, Stiles, had consi
derable trouble, and he has abated the nuisance. These
facts were all urged In miti&ation of punishment. Judge
Allison said that this was the worst house of the kind
that ever tame under his notice. The evidence of one of
witneeees was, that no less than seventy woman fre
quented the place during a single evening. Tho defend
ant was then sentenced to pay a fine of $5O, and undergo
a term of six months in the county prison.
J. McCoy, for selling liquor to minors and without a
liceiisp, was sentenced on two bills. Total amount of fine
$75 and costs, and ten days* imprisonment. Several
other parties, for selling liquor without a license, were
fined £59 each and costs. The cost in each of these cases
is 510.75.

PURE GOD-LIVER OIL.
The repugnance of most patients to COD-LIVER
OIL, and the inability of many to take it at all, haa in*
Juced various forms |of disguise for its administration
that are familiar to the Medical Profession. Some of
them answer in special cases, but more eiien
neutralizes the usual effect of the Oil, proving quite as
unpalatable and of less therapeutic value. The repug
nance, nausea, Ac., to invalids, induced by disgust of the
Oih la entirely obviated by the use of oor CAPSULES.
COD-LIVEB* OIL CAPSULES have been much need
lately in Europe, the experience there of the good*ro
sults from their nso in both hospital and private practioe,
•side from the naturally suggested advantages, are suf
ficient to warrant our claiming the virtues we do for
them, feeling assured their use will result in benefit and
deserved favor. Prepared by

PROFESSOR MUTTER.
AT FREDERICK BROWN’S,

This Bemedy is a safe and simple preparation from the
receipt of the late distinguished Professor Mutter, with
whom it was a favorite prescription. That he used it in
his extensive practice, insures to the timid ft certain
proof of its pure and innoxious elements, and to those
who know his character for skill and careful attention,
to prescribe only such remedial agents as should secure
restoration without producing subsequent evil, it will bo
welcomed aB a real good. Under the guidance of a Phy
sician (to whom its combination will unhesitatingly be
made known), it will always bo found very beneficial*
and in oases where a medical adviser is not at hand, It
may be used with safety, according to the directions, in
all cases of short or long duration. For sale at
