taMaththe Alps. Tills would be delightful to
Ii«v« but in Italy we are bound to be on our guard
against such florid foreoasts.; The proverbial swab;
TAw in riot more unreliable as an omen than the soft
vein hit upon by the burrowers in the. North Italian
boundary, whose worst trials and severest labor are
in all probability still berore them. Accordingly as
they advance the difficulty: of ventilation will ln
crease, and, setting aside unforeseen difficulties
whioh are possible, but may: not arise, geologists,
who have Btudied the formation of the mountlon In
process of. perforation, predlot that the laborers
will oome upon strata of granite that will sorely try
the temper oi their picks. We may venture to at
tach some weight to the opinion of the engineers
whom the Fieiioh Government doubtless consulted
before undertaking to pay half a mllllon.franos
to the Italian Government for every year less than
20 (than 18 from the present time) that should
elapse beiore the tunnel was opened to traffic. A
passage Is now being struck through the mountain,
butttls of far smaller dimensions than those the
tußnki have, and it I-', estimated that there
will toe fally two wotle tfc ao atiec tlie paaaawo
Sou hare boon made. Prudent parsons, on IhSr
guard against exaggeration, will be well satisfied If
tke whole work be done within the former estimate
of ten years. The projectors of, the rail way. have
continued their labors in the teeth of a winter
such as is seldom, known, even In that habitu
ally Inclement and frostbitten region. To the
Preside dwellers In, the plain it -may well seem
wonderful that their scheme has not slept,
shrouded in a snowdrift, through the long months
of the rigorous season. The' snow this winter upon
the Oenis has been something quite exceptional.
In many .places oh the public road it Is ten metres
In depth, and In someas much as 14 metres; At the
and of winter, when no more snow la to be appre
pended, laborers are set to out through the snow, as -
traffic would be greatly impeded .were. It left .to do-;
part by the natural means of a thaw. The usual
cost of the labor required Is 10.000 f., but this year It'
Win cost ;40,000f. Six hundred men havo:. boon
at work for some days, and will be so for a fort*
night longer. Travellers would do well to look out:■
for avalanches— lr vigilance were qr any avail, but -
unfortunately it Is not, lor they,come down: like a
thunderbolt, sending before them a column of air
whioh sweeps: away everything and .everybody
on its passage. Two men employed on- the
road wore, the other day, thus hurled to de
struction. An avaianohe fell, on Thursday last
and. blocked up the road for some: time. Not
far irom where it fell, on the French side of ‘
the mountain, a little to .the south of refuge No, 22,
another has since fallen. Now, railway trains have
already encountered most of the accidents to which
It seems possible they should be exposed. They
have emasiu»d each.. other reciprocally, hkve fallen '
over precipices, plunged into rivers, and been burnt
upon tiifilr own mils. Bat ’a Wala. lieMtd asks? ks
an avaianoiiei and sent crashing ana splintering for
hundreds rad 'thousands or la gorgQS
and ravines would be a novelty as remarkable as it
would be horrible to contemplate. To guard against
suoh a frightful. contingency the Super-UOnisian
railway company will roof in the road wherever
avalanohes are possible, and wherever drifting can
occur. Ihe experience of centuries renders it easy
to ascertain suoh . places. In the construction of
those covered ways timber .will be largely employed, :-
but iron and masonry will also be used. .Since we
last wrote on the subject of this proposed railway
preparation for a trial have been completed, two
kilometres of rail have been laid down between
Lanslebourg and the summit, in the steepest
part of. the mountain, and trains have 'been run'
at a height of 5,600 feet above the sea. The first
serios ot experiments were made In February and ■
March, with the same engine that ran, a year be
fore, up and down equally steep hills In Derbyshire.
The second series now making are with an Improved
engine, such as has not ever previously been used.
In order to secure at once lightness and strength,
both so necessary for mountain-work, 1 it is made
almost entirely of steel. On the 20th of last month
a series of trials were to commence lor the satisfac
tion of the French Government, ‘When-these are'
eonoluded there will be a second and final series, at
which will be present Italian, English, Austrian,
and Busßian commissioners. -When the Frenoh
and Italian Governments are satisfied, the laying
down of therails and other work will,be aotlvely
proceeded with and completed within a year from
the time of such permission. The length of the line
from St. Jttlohel to Susa Is seventy,seven. kilo
metres, or forty-eight Englißh miles., The trains are'
to runßln fonr.and a half houre, being a saving of
six hours on the time at present occupied. It is cal
culated that if the trains on the line from Paris' to
Macon are a little accelerated, whioh might very
well be done to the extent-of one hour, the mall
will arrive here from,the former oity at 4, or at
latest 6, in the afternoon, Instead or as at pre
sent at some time between 11 P. M. and 6 A. M.,
according to the "season of the year; To the rail
way the weather will make little difference. The'
snow-plough clears away a metre’s depth of snow,
and it Is unexampled . that more, if: so much,'has
fallen within twenty-four hours—atleast in this part
of the world. The experiment was lately tried of
driving the engine, without a plough, through
a very considerable depth of snow;:* and It .made
Its way without difficulty. Independently of
tbe immense gain - to travellers, the - advan
tage of this mountain railway to postal comma.
Bication would be very great. The, letters. from
Paris that now roach us only In the morning would
bo delivered on-the previous evening, and there
would be plenty oi time'to answer them: by'the
mall, whioh then, Instead of starting at night, would
leave here at CA. M. .{When the oapltal. gets to
Florence the gain will be - still greater. 1 Monday
Eight’s letters irom Paris wiil be. delivered In . Flo
rence on Wedneeday morning; people will have all
day to reply, and their answers will bo delivered in
Farlß od Friday morning. To do IF faster-than
that really seems, hardly possible. At: any-rate,
With such a pace established, we can afford to wait
patiently tor tho opening of the monster tunnol.—

What is a Snsrioit Wba.nsi.Be ?—The annual
lists of the mathematical degrees atthe University
or Cambridge must cause considerable difficulty to
those who are not In the . secret of the phraseology
employed. Why should theexamlnation be termed
a Tripos, and conducted'by Moderators and Ex
aminers I—and- why are - the successful Students,
divided into Glasses, called Wranglers,.and
Senior and Junior Optimes 1 To begin with the name
of the mathematical examination. Tripos is Latin
for a three-legged stool ;the;three legs, m this ease,-
being the three clashes;ih Which those who pass are
plaoed in order of merit. ' To explain the names
given to those subordinate olasßes leads-us, how
ever, a good many years bach. In the happy days
we have alluded, to,'before examinations, a man’s
right to his degree was settled by oral dlsputa- ■
turns between the students who had resided the re
quisite number- of' weeks in the university.. There
was no answering of questions on, paper, or by word
of mouth's, a student’s knowledge was tested by the
skill with which he , stated his own view, and met
the arguments with whloh Ms opponents tried to
overthrow it. This systomvlasted; with’ modifica
tions, from the foundation of the university to about
thirty years ago. “.To wrangle Inthe schools” was
the technical term applied ; to those who took part
in the disputations there held. Every student was
obliged to keep two,‘.‘ Acts” and three “Opponen
clesthat is to say, he had on two occasions to
-begin the war of words by propounding a “ques
tion," as it was called y (hence the students who are
about to take their degrees - are still oalled “ Clues
tlonists i”) and on - the others to . find argu
ments to meet those or the propounder. Every’
person keeping an act had two opponents, who were
chosen by the “ Moderator.” Moderator Is a Latin
word, applied generally to, one who dlreots or
manages anything; a steersman and a man on horse
baokare said to “moderate” their ship or their
steed, as the ease may be. The moderator had the
questions submitted to him, and ohoae the opponent
In accordance with the known abilities of ihe pro
pounder of the questions, to prevent a good man—
r.in; university language, a clever man—from
getting off too easily, and a less able one from being
too severely handled. The subject of the act of
course depended on whether the student “went
Out”— i. e., took his degree—ln Law, Physics, or
Mathematics. The last was the most usual, and In
deed may be said tobeso still. The student keeping
the act would propound some statement In' Newton
or Euqlld—as, for instance, to take a very simple
ease, he would maintain that Euclid is right In say
ing that any two sides of a triangle are greater than
a third; and the opponent were obliged to find ar
guments—generally, of course, merely ingenious
qulbbleß—to meet this assertion. At the Conclusion
the moderator, if satisfied, would say in Latin, In
which languagethe whole discussion had been car
ried on—“lton, Blr, have sustained yourself very
well {optiml) In your-disputation.” The students
were divided by him into two oiasses; the fir3t
called "*Wranglerß”—and the first in this class was
and Is called’the senior wrangler-anil the second
.“ Optimes,” a word derived from the Latin adverb
optime. Subsequently these were again divided
into seniors and juniors, as at present.—Prom Cas

Bat job Maretiks.— There is a remarkable
peculiarity in the Scottish people,'says the Regis
trar General—their fondness for marrying on the
last day of the year. There are more marriages In
Scotland on that day than in any week of the year,
excepting, of course, the week in which that day oc
curs. The detailed returns for 1861 have - just been
Issued, and the number of marriages In the eight
principal towns would average some twenty-five a
day—that Is to say, a work day, for marrying is one
of the things not to be done m Scotland on Sunday
—but the Registrar General states that, in fact,
there are between too and 500 marriages In those
towns on the Slst of,December. By another.curious
usage, a large proportion of these marriages are
not registered until January, making that appear a
favorite month for marriage, which it is not.

THE CITY.
DIABOLICAL ATTEMPT TO BLOW DP THE
FOWDEB MAGAZINE NEAR POINT BREEZE.
A short time since the residents of Philadelphia
were greatly excited In consequence of a report that
a plot had been discovered to burn the city. Since
that time the citizens have, settled Into a state of
supposed security, and many, perhaps, entertain
an idea that the whole thing was simply a «big
spare.” We present to-day the fact that on the
Wednesday night previous to the Sunday night
when the city was to be burned, the large
bam, containing hay and straw, located within
fifty yards of the State magazine, situate near Point
Breeze, was fired by an incendiary, but after-burh
ing a short time, became extinguished; owing to the
fact, perhaps, that there was not enough straw near'
the place where the. match was applied u sad ikW :
flames sufficiently long-to make the conflagration
general. The, wind at the. time was blowing
directly towards the magazine rrbm the direc
tion of the. barn... Asthlß affair has. been
kept remarkably quiet, . the people, or course,
were lu led into seourlty. Tons of thousands of
our citizens little dreamed that on the night of the
2eth of last month a fire was kindled within one
near,™ feot of a
nearly one hundred tons of powder, and.thla within
’Xn*™**'**' built-up southern part of the
th «,. * pubUo generally entertain the Idea that
the fatate magazine was removed long ago to a
more remote distance* from the olty. •It is true tha
Mr. W. Foster,-member of bheLglslature from
the First district, Introduced a bill providing
for the removal of the State magazine. The
bill was passed and became a law on March
2d, 18C3. Tho site was sold for the sum of
*7,600, the purchaser, Mr. John
ing not to take possession of the property until
another magazine was built. The new magazine
has not yet been built,: and .the old- one remains.
The danger to the public Is far more Imminent than
it was two years since. Tho magazine Is a low
building, tho walls being nearly three feet thick of
solid masonry.; It is heavily arched on the top, and.
eapable of holding three hundred tons of) powder .■ It-
Is very evident that such a dangerous place should
b$ well iuarfledtas long ai toMupon tons of nowflar
, are permittee! to be stored there in aefiMiea oflaw
and the eicprcmd With Of the people,
An explosion of so muoh powder would produoe a
conqusslonso extremely tremendous as.to probably
shake Philadelphia inte a mass of ruins from Its
centre to its circumference. We ban assure the
whole public that many people In the southern soo
. fclon of the city arc living in constant dread because
of the prefence of so much powdor. It seems as
though the authorities deslre the press generally to
say nothing on- these explosive subjects, for fear of
alarming tho pooplo unduly. Let tho authorities
remove the powder from its present location, and
they will recelve the plaudits of the people, it re
quires no stretch of tha imagination to: suppose
that tons of stone wall would be sent to
an immense- height In oase of an explo
sion, anil In their descent might chance to
crush through the roofs of in all parts of the
city. The subject, therefore, demands the prompt
consideration of everybody in Philadelphia. Ir the
firing of the oity was to have taken place on Sunday
night, May Ist, then tho conspirators made the most
admirable arrangements, to effect tbolr purpose. ■
Had the magazine :e»pioded on ‘the night the born
teas fired, as the vile incendiary intended, the oity
would have been in suoh a tremendous ex
citement on the following Sunday as to .fall
ail easy prey to the conspirators' who; doubtless, in
feat the city of Philadelphia, for the express purpose
of effecting Its ruin. A few days since two hundred
and .fifty barrels of gunpowder, belonging to the
United States Government, were: stored In tho
.magazine, and yet.not a.;guard has been placed there
by anybody. The Arsenal, the Navy Yard, the
Government buildings have a military guard, but
the .magazine seems., to have been ;extlrely lost
sight of. We commend the subjeot to Major
-General .Cadwalader; inasmuch,-as- there is
powder stowed away there belonging to the United
States Government. Not a moment should be lost.
A’blg guard ; shonld*be stationed there at once. The

JMr. G.W. Buckman, chairman of the committee
appointed to wait upon the Musical Association,
made a report setting forth that the association had
no control over the charges that may be asked, ex
cept so far as to prevent any member playing for a
less sum than that set forth in the printed list adopted
by the association.
-The printed list states that for parades commencing
in the forenoon and terminating Inthe afternoon the
price shall not be less than six dollars per man. .The
leader shall charge doable, and in his absence any
one acting shall receive two dollars-extra, to be de
ducted from the leader’s pay, .
Col. Page asked that the report be accepted, and
the ooxnmittee be continued. He said that' he had
been called upon by Mr. Hassler, who was chair
man of the Executive Committee of the MUsloal:
Union, who desired to meet the dommlttee, and
make such arrangements as would be entirely satis ■

THE LOTTERY BUSINESS AGAIN.
There is very considerable excitement in: this city
among the iottery-tl'eket and policy dealers and
backers, growing ont or the question of obtaining the
Unitc-cL States licenses. We have obtained consi
derable knowledge of many points of peculiar Inte
rest' respecting this business, which, in all proba
bility, will be brought to tho notice of the legal
authorities. A very eminent member Of the legal
profession has had the .matter referred to him, and
he is engaged in preparing the oase. It is under
stood that a person, once an Inmate of Port Lafay
ette, now holding a position apparently in or under
the sanction of the United States Treasury De
partment, entertains the idea that one United
States license may be granted to a person in Phila
delphia to the exclusion of all others who choose
toengagein this business. This, person is the re
presentative of the New Yorkers, and owing to this
the dispute comes in. If it be legal to grant United
States lloenses In New York for the benefit of the
State of Kentucky, the only : section of our
country where lotteries are allowed by law,
it certainly is neither legal nor honest to
give New Yorkers a chance to monopolize.the
business In Philadelphia. The Philadelphians have
their “ backs up,’.’.and they express the utmost de
termination to contest what they conceive to be a :
conspiracy on the part of certain men to monopo
lize the business under the covering of the national
law. The Philadelphians will be apt to win. We
were not aware when the subject was alluded to In
this paper that a private war had been progressing
with considerable fervor, although privately.

THE COURTS.
District Conrt No. X—Judge Hare.
Sarah Fleet vs-Limon Davlno. This waß an ac
tion brought by . tha widow of Elohard Fleet,-de
ceased, to recover damages for the death of her hus
band, which she alleges was occasioned by the ne
gligence of the .defendant. The defendant was the
owner of the premises. No. 235 Race street, and
while,Fleet was loading his wagon, a' battlement
wall, which had been for many years in a dangerous
condition, fell upon and killed him.
The defence was that the battlement wall which
fell, was not part of the promises owned by the de
fendant, but that it was built with'and belonged to
an adjacent building.
It was contended on the part of the plaintiff that
even if this was so, as it overhung the premises of
■ the defendant, and rendered It unsafe for any one
who had business to go there, the defendant was
guilty of negligence in not taking-legal measures to
have it removed. The jury rendered a verdict for
the plaintiff' for $BOO. Charles W. Brooke and Thos.
Mullen, Esqs,,for plaintiff; Geo. W. Arundel,
13f<j., for defendant.

John Young waß bharged with- rescuing a pri

prisoner in custody named Thomas Young, and the
accused resouedmlm, Verdict guilty. Sentence
delorred.
A DANBEBOTTS INOBNDIABY.
William ; Miller, alias Myers, was bharged with
attempting to.burn a bam.
John Walker testified that on the morning of the
19th of April he discovered seven places in the barn
and four in the cow-stable where an attempt was
made to fire the barn. . The prisoner was arrested
in the act of setting fire to the barn.
Policeman Haas testified that he had watched the
barn of Dr. Henry for two weeks, it having been on
fire several times ; the prisoner came in, struck a
-match, and commenced gathering up hay and put
ting ltnnder the manger ; he was in the act of
lighting a piece of paper to apply to the hay when I
arrested him. '
; The prisoner said he went Into the bam to llght'a
pipe. Verdict, guilty.
The same prisoner was charged with the larceny
of fly-nets, clothing, &e. ■ -
. Charles F. Whartenby testified that the things
were taken from his stable ; an attempt had been
made to fire his barn; it was set on fire in five dif
ferent places. ■-
Officer Haas testified to finding the stolen goods
near the barn of Dr.' Henry. Verdict, not guilty. G
Fire Marshal Blackburn was now called, and tes
tified as foilcws: This man has been before the court
twice within three years; the.first time he was
charged with committing petty larcenies In the rural
districts, and the last time he made a fire in a bam
and came near burning It down; the last time he
was recommended to meroy by the jury; in both In
stances he was sent from the prison to the insane de
partment of the Almshouse,'from whence he effect
ed his escape; several weeks prior to his late arrest
thirteen different barns were set on fire, and one of
them burned; I Investigated the places, and oame
to the conclusion that the fires were the work of
some prowling vagrant who went to them to steal;
I had my doubts as to whether it was the determi
nation of the person to burn the barns; but on
making a thorough examination of Dr, Henry’s
barn, when It was first fired, it looked as though it
was a deliberate design; I sßggested to tho farmers
to keep a strict watch, and Dr.' Henry set Sa watch
which resnltod in the capture of the prisoner ; I have
had doubts as to the perreot sanity of the prisoner,
but I find a area! deal of cunning In him; at times
he wlllnot speak English, and then ha forgets him
self and speaks It fluently;! think he is a very dan
gerous man to be at large; at every place where the
fires were made articles were stolen. Sentence de
ferred. G
SENTENCE OV A OONBTABI.E.
Nathan Dukahs, tho constable who pleaded guilty
to permitting the escape of a prisoner, that Is by
enlisting him in the army,and not taking him to
the prison as the comuilcjnont-required, was sen
tenced to pay a fine of $5 and to undergo an Impri
sonment of thirty days.
Ellen Thomas, colored, was charged with stealing
-two pairs of pants and a vest- L.. 8. Myerson testi
fied that the articles were stolen from him and
pledged. Two witnesses testified to seeing the -ao
ousea with the things. Verdict guilty. Sentenced
to four months.
John Smethurst was charged with fraudulently
altering a promissory note,
b Mr-. Jameson testified to giving a promissory note
• for $lB7 to John Smithnrst. The note was made in
1857, and dated October ' 20, 1856, In the District
Court, February, 1864, ; 5u1t was /commenced on the
note, and then the date was discovered to have been
changed to 1868. No. demand svas ever made for
the payment of the note prior to Its coming into tho
District Court.. The note was given him so I could,
gain time ; it was not done to baffle my creditors.
By the alteration of the date a judgment was ob
tained which could not . have been had if the date
had not been altered/ [The ohange of date brought
the note within the statute of limitation.] Mr.
Jameson'testified that the date off the note was
changed- v ;.<.•; v l -.-'
The defence called witnesses to prove that Mr.
Jameson had stated that he never made the note;
: the whole thing was a forgery, and ho appealed to
his Maker when he said so. Also, that they believed
all the note figures included were made by him. In
reply to a question put by Mr. Cassidy, who prose
cuted the case, a witness said he.had heard boththe
prosecutor and defendant Swear at times, although
they did belong to ehuroh. The witnesses also gave
the defendant a good character. Not concluded.
THE POLICE.
THE PHILADELPHIA ADVENTURES OF DR.
F. TUMBLETY.
It is believed in Philadelphia that Dr. Blaokburn,
who was arrested in St. Louis upon an order issued
from Washington, as mentioned in a telegram pub
lished in The Press yesterdayvis the “same person
who figured conspicuously in this city two years
since as Dr. F. Tumblety. If this be the case; an
adventure of the doctor rhat occurred in Philadel
phia In May, 1863,'wi1l prove decidedly interesting.
Dressed in a fantastic costume;.cavalry, boots, and
spurs; he appeared upon a spotted horse in the
streets, and thus attracted a largo share or popular
attention. At other times he appearedin Chestnut
street, followed by a colored servant; and occasion
ally he had with him a beautiful greyhound.
The doctor, as he styled himself, rented an office
on tho second story of the building 333 Chestnut
street. The place contained a screen, two or thtee
chairs, a table, but nothing to indioate medical
practice, i Publicly he was regard edas an eccentric
-individual and harmless. .Detectives Oalanan and
Carlin .«piped » him for some time as a suspicious
person, but did not obtain even a single 11 dot.”
On the 21st of May, 1863, the doctor entered tho
Central Station, ana made the following affidavit,
recorded in Mr. Bulkloy’s blotter:
“Dr. l Tumblety, ofj.Washington—3B3 Chestnut
street—Stolen,jthls morning, a gold medal; presented
to deponent by citizens of Montreal, Canada; name
on It; valued’SSOO; taken by.a man named St.;Clalr
stopping at Girard House ywas showing it to hint;
■he ran off with It; F. TnMULETV.JVC.D.”
A warrant waß issued by Alderman -Beitier, and
placed in the/possession of Messrs. Oalanan and
Carlin. St. Clair was arrested on the succeeding
day, and arraigned: on the day following at tho
Central Station.! -The defendant gave the name of
Joseph Aspinwall alias St. Clair. Dr. Tumblety,
upon being sworn, testified as follows:
The defendant called to see .me, and Said he had
seen me in Montreal ; I said yes, I had been there;
I showed him the gold medal at that time; a party
came In to see me; I went into the hall; when I
came back the defendant and gold modal were gone ;
: medal worth $800; it was presented to me by tho
citizens of. Montreal. . ..
Defendant committed. .■>
The case was duly reported to Beniamin Franklin.
Chief of Police, and there being allngerlng doubt
in thejnindGf Officer Oallanan as to the true cha
racter of the Dootor, the Chief.-wrote to the proper'
authorities of Montreal, and an answer was receive:!
that no such medal had ever been presented by any
of the citizens, and that the Dootor was an Impostor,
a charlatan, and a suspicious • person, Before this.
THE. jcRELPHIAy ■ • TUESDAYs MAY- 9. -1865/
answer was received, the Doetor called'at the offloe,
ar.d said that lie had recovered-the medal ■ some
one had placed It beneath the door of his office The
prisoner, who had been committed on the ohatae or
stealing;, was at ones liberated. He presented some
evidence of good character. As soon as the answer
was received from Montreal by (Jhief Franklln/he
sent for the Doctor, who responded in a short time.
The Chief opened on Mm in the most unmistakable
terms ; oharged Mm with being an impostor; had sent
an Innooent person to prison, Ac, The Doctor became
Impudent, whereupon Dr. Biaekouru,the are mar
shal, came to the assistance or tho CMef. and de
nounced the Impostor in language respectful but
decidedly emphatic. He was glven twenty-four
hours to leave, as he was an Impostor and pro
bable rebel emissary. He did leave, and proceeded
to Brooklyn, where he staid awhile, having Harold
as a companion in that place. Since that period he
has been In Canada, New Orleafas, Bermuda, and
Nassau 5 also he has been heard of as having been at
intermediate .places. At one time, before the block-
MIC running was stopped, he was, It is believed; at
Wilmington, N. 0.. We learn, from an officer who
had been over three-years In the army, that the
same fellow had been seen In camps in Virginia on
a number of occasions.
