Now that the question of a cunal acrois i being diecussed in connection with the Nicaragua treaty, it is quite in order to refer to the cheepest and mot feasible plan for transporting vessel from one ocesn to another arros the Isthmus. In the Seienlijie American of the 27lh elaborate drawing and design of machinery are giyen for lifting and holding in place the largest steamships with full cargoes undisturbed, and transporting them on a with perfect ease by processes and machinery now thoroughly tested ami long in practical and auoceisful use. In connection with tlieao drawings an interesting and detailed statement is given of Captain Jame B. Eads's proposed ship railway across the Isthmua of Tehuantepec. The advantages of this route in the mat ter of distance, of terminal harbors, of favorable winds on either side, when compared with those of Panama or Nicaragua are greatly in favor of The actual distance Tehuantepec. saved by Eads's route over that of the Panama route is over 1,200 miles, of calms and but the danger route adds delays by the latter Captain Silas Dent, great risks. in advocating the ship railway over the Tehuantepec line before the Merchants Let us Exchange in 8t. Louis, says: suppose that the Lessep eanal at Panama and the Eads railway at Tehauntepec are both completed and in running order; then let us start two sailing ship of equal lounage and equal sliced from the mouth of the Mississippi with cargo fur China, one to go by way of the Panama canal, the other by way of the Tehuantepec railway, and I venture to affirm that by the time the Panama ves-shas cleared the canal aud floats in the waters of tliePacific, the Tehuante pec vcmI will have scaled the Isthmus and be well on to the meridian of the Sandwich Islands; and that before the former vessel can worry through the fifteen hundred or more mile of windless ocean before her to reach the trade winds to the westward of Tehauntepec, the latter will have sped five thousand milra on her way across the Pacific and be fttlly thirty day ahead of her adversary. For it is a fact worth mentioning here dial the strength of the northeast trade winds la tha Pacific; aa well as the maximum strength of the northern portion of tha gnat equatorial cirrent in the ocean, are both fjund in or nnr the parallel of latitude of Teheuntepec, the former blowing with an impelling force to the westward of ten or twelve miles an hour, and the latter with a following strength of three or four miles an hour. The noat remarkable depression of the Cordilleras is found at Tehauntepec, so that the highest elevation above sea level on the proposed railway route is 1m thae 800 feet. The route selected by Captain Eads is ia the southern part of Mexico and a concession from that republic was obtained by him in l&li sstsudiug to the isthmus in Central America ship-railroa- authorizes the construction of a ship railway, an ordinary railway and a telegraph line. It exempts all ships in transitu from government duty, guarantee protection during the construction of the roads, gives the right to obtain the aiJ of any foreign government, with the right to discriminate in favor of the commerce of such a government again: t that of all other countries sare Mexico, and grauti the concessionaire a million acre of public land. Two or three lines were surveyed. The entire length of tho line from the Allaulic to the Pacific utiles is 121 mile. Tweuly-fiv- e be will road of this i.p the Cjatmuualco river to Mkiitillan. So that the total length of the railway will he butaIittle over 10l mile. The pontoon, or floating dock in ordinary ur, with an adjuslible cradle suited to uie shirs of ths largest sbiju, will he sunk so as to receive the vessel. The water will then he pumped out, raising the ship on the cradle, which is on wheels, to the level of the three railway tracks, over which the stately vessels lake their way from ocean to ocean. The entire cost of the railway with everything completed in working order ia estimated at $02,000,000, hut if it is rated at $75,000,000 even, it will he three quarters leas than the Panama f to Canal, and from 1m than the Nicaragua Canal, with all the claims of the government and of private jobbers fastened upon the canal route. 1980. it one-hal- A StYKKIlNG CHARGE. Rev. Dr. Hague, a Baptist minister, .in criticising the utterances of an Episcopal clergyman, liev. lleber Newton, take occasion, as reported, to My that the Episcopal Church is honeycomcd with infidelity, or words to that effect. It is a matter of surprise that a Baptist minister, representing a church which in theory allows the largest liberty to its members and clergy to think and speak for themselres, as individuals and os separate organised church as, should make another religious sect responsible for the utterances of one or more of it member. We are not sufficient 'y familiar with Rev. lleber Newton published lecture to say to what extent the charge of infidelity to the generally accepted doctrine of the Christian religion holds good against him. It is sufficient to say that protests against Mr. Newtons pulpit teachings from members aud clergy of the Episcopal Church have been neither few nor far between. The bishop of New York with a liberality creditable to his judgment, declined to resort to summary method for the purpose of silencing Mr. Newton, who it seems lias won the love and respect of hie parishoner. The Episcopal Church in this country in matters of orthodoxy as well as in the practical duties required in the gospels, so far as we are able to judge, cannot he safely attacked hr any other Christian In sect. fact at present, every sect will find ample em ployment within its own ranks to look after those who, in tha exercise of the protestant right of private judgment inscripiural matters, wander more or e from exacting and lengthy creeds of man's devising. The work of shortening e and simplifying the, standards ef the church hss I wen found necessary of late. New readings, truthful criticism, better translations and we believe better conception of the epirit of the Christian religion, require modification if not ' absolute repudiation of ibrmer opinions and belief. To heresy hunters who pride themselves on wind and bottom in the hunt, lln-ris ample field in the "New Departures of the thoughtful d worthies. present for these While il is but fair that the members oi a sect who find themselves drifting away from certain dogmas in the creed to which they have subscribed, kould either exprcvi their dissent to their and abide their decision or formally withdraw, yet it is barely possible that unofficial members who prove thenuelvea good livers and workers and yet may hold opinions obnoxious as those proclaimed by liev lleber Newton, may well be left alone in their several societies until, st (he great assize of the hereafter, opinions and actions shall be judged by unerring truth at the hands of a righteous judge. - old-tim- e keen-scente- HELP CONDENSED.
