GEORGIAN BAY CANAT. Twenty yeara ngo the project of a stip canal from Georgian Bay to'Toronto was wiely dls- cussed, The distance fs only 100 miles, and of tis only some forty miles Isto be close canal navigation, Moro than half of the route Hes in the valleys of the Notawasaga. The hard times of 1857-00 put a damper on tho enterprise, und for acyoral years the project passed nearly out ofsight. But from the report Just submitted by the Bpectal Commnittes of the Ontarlo Parilu- ment, it looks as ff the enterprise was to be re- yived. The great barrier to bo overcome fs the decp cut between the Holland marslics and the lumber River, which, If the canal be fed from Lake Sinivoe, requires a cutting through the sund tldges of the enormous depth of 197 feat.

MUSICAL BATTLES. ‘The Old-Timo “ Uattle of Prague," “Battie of Waterloo," and Other Pianoforte Atrocl- thes, Alt the Year Round, Many of our readers will loubtlesa recotlect that famous “Battie of the Pianos,” which was so spiritedly depicted by the late John Leech In the pages of J’unch, The drawing shows what. an architect would calt a sectional clevation of the adjacent drawing-rooms of two London houses. Back to back, and divided only by the flimsicst of parti-walls, stand two pianos, and at each plano aro sented two young Indica. We ara left to conclude from the misc-en-ecene that aloud and furious battic of harmony, or discord, as the case may he, isin progress between the allied arinics of falr combatants, and the whole forms o good-humored satire on the musical proclivities of metropolitan young ladies, as well as on the unaubstantial nature of the bar- rlers that separate the houses of London. The pianoforte battics, however, which at present engage our attention are those which pretended to bea musical record .of the great battles of the past. ‘They found the delight of ourjvrand- mothers, whose {magination may be supposed to have been livelier than those of thelr descend. ante at the present degenerate day3 for tt must be confessed, with a sizh from the defender of the good old times, that battle-pleces for the pianoforte are no longer in favor even with the most enthusiastic misq of jingo-like pro- elivitica. Tow many thousands of the readers of the novel without a hero have sympathized with poor George Oshurne in that seene which pre- eeded the explosion of bis father's wrath.

On the other hand, the first signal cannon is quite unmistakable in meauing, consisting of a heavy bang of octave notes in the bass.

Wo wonder whether the Miss Osbornes were in the hablt, when they performed this plece, of roading audibly the descriptive commentary. Unless they did so, many of the most ambitious efforts of the composer must have escaped the Ustener.

THE NEW TELEGRAPH. What Dr, Norvin Green Thinks of It-Tho Proposed System Substantially the Old Autamatio System—The Offor to the West’ ern Union Company. New York Tribune, March 97. Dr. Norvin Green, President of the Western Union Telegraph Company, tn referring to the proposed American Rapid Telegraph Company, eaid yesterday toa Tribune reporter: “In the first place, Mr, Craig's machine fs of that class of instruments that the telegraphic world of to- day calls automatic, The automatic system is in reality one of the oldest systems of telegraphy known. ts fundamental principle fs the same as that used by Bain as early as 1849. itis asystem of mechanical transmiesion, aid is undoubtedly much more rapid than soy other mode of transtntesion over wires, as long ag it works. I think Mr. Craig gives fn his pamphlet some abstracts of testimony in re- spect to his former system, which was very much the same thing, Iam aware that when I say it Je very much the same thing Mr. Craig will say, n8 he bas said, that [ don’t know any- thing about it. His assertion that I never saw this thing work, and that the officers of this Company, though passing the doors where tha test was made cyery day for montns without stepping in to sea it work, is eimply. untrue. Wo did sea ft on several ovcasions, and sulll- ciently loug to pass judgment on ft, in counec- tion with very claborate tests anil experiments imade by our practical men fur a long time and Lully reported. “It is wetl known to evdry ono who talked with the late President Orton that he had no falth in the automatic instruments, or in Mr. Craig's modification of them, or in any mecha! {val teleeraphy. He sasented to the expend- iture necessaryjto test the Craig, Foote, and Ran- dallinstrument, with ao option to purchase, only because some of the Directors tnought It wise to do so, as it probably might be found of value to the Western Union Company, The option to purchuse by this Company wae for 25,000 in cash, and eertaio royaltles for the use of the instrument. There was an oblia- tion that we were not to use less than 100 instruments the first year, not less than 0 the second year, and further in~ creages in the number of Instruments for each year during the firat five years. It is not true that the instrument hnd not a very-lair, full, and protracted examination and experl- montal trial in the Westera Unton building for a period of mans months: and while it is true that some very rapid trausmiasions were made, the instrument was not found to have any ma- terlol advantage over other automatic instru- ments which this Company has the right to use. “The only tustrumeut of the kind that over has been used recently is thatof the late Sir “Charlvs Wheatstone, which {s iu use on the British Post-Oilice lines, und for the exclusive use ot which in this country the Atlantic é& Pacile Telegraph Company now is paying a royalty of 41,000 a year, under o con- tract, gunning to the énd of the patent in 1584. The Western Union Com apy therefore has, by license fromsthe Atlantic Pacific Company, the right to use the Wheat- stone automatic. ‘The Craly, Foute, aud Rau- dull justrunent, Hite the Wheatstone instru- leat, inight be used with some advantages by our Compuny fora heavy press service when the wires were overtuxcd, but cither ts totally unsuited to a general telegraph service, and in my judgment cau never be made a success ex- cept for a very large service between fixed polute, It was’ not worth purchasing at any such valuation os bad been fixed upon It, for the reason that it was no better than the iustru- ments we have a right to use, and afforded us noj security against competition; because better systems were free to anybody to use, and because the fundamental principles of the mc- clinnical sretem were {ree to everybody, belny the invention of Bain, whose patents long ago expired. While decilaing to accept the option, weld say to Mr. Craig that we would buy the instrument at what it wos really worth, and the only effort Mr. Twombly inado was to try to dis- abuso Mr, Craiz’s mind of the enormous and upjustiflable value he flzed upon !t, and to sat- fefy hin that, while it might be worth somo- thing to this Company, it was of noyalus to any olber company in tals country, and to tn- aluce him to accept a fair price for it. Mr. ‘Twombly ucyer trled to recover the right to purchase it at the price It was offered to us in the cuntract, por have we any reason to change our position Ju respect todeclininy that option,” a GEMS.

In speaking of the several properties accorded to zoms by the superatitions of all countries, the lecturer montioned the opal, which is commouly regarded as an unlucky stone, nnd is supposed to absorb disease or pol- son, nol, by achaugo of color, give uotice of ap. proaching death. He could only trace this su- perstition back to the date of the ' Waverley Novels,” where, in bia “Anne of Gelratein,’? Scott depicts the unfortunate heroine as wear- tug au opal Fuk ‘The changing color of the opal was axplained by a description of the infinite number of the most minute cracka that mark its surface and deflect rave of Hght from one angle to another in rapid aucccesion, Molsture fs absorbed by these eracka; they ofteu become filled with dirt, and by means of them the opal fs very suscentibly to (bu luiucnces of heat und cold, therefore an ‘opal muat uot be washed or held in the hand; sud for these reasons an expert juwoler, wlah- ing to display a this opal to thd best advantage, will bold it fin bis hand fora minute without allowlug ittacoma fn contact with the feeb, util the minute cracks have expanded with the heat, aud the stony glows with o wonderful Urillinney.

New York Tribune, The famous Rugby School has now about 450 pupils. The curriculum of the school Ia in the main classical, and it is principally by proficiency fn Latin and Greek that the forms’? (the class divistons) are arranged, Inthe Middle 8ctool, which, as {tis the largest, may botnken as the typical part, the amount of tine given to the main branches of study ts a8 follows: Each les- sou Insts for an hour; and an hour, or tn some cases on hour und a hall, 1s expected to be given to Sts preparation. Thue the proportion of tine given to various subjects can be seen from the number of Jessonsin cach every week. Latin and Greek together havo ten leesons; Scriptura two, history one, English or geography one. These aubjects are tought hy the classical = or+ form master. Mathemat- ics bas five lessons, ‘natural science two, Fronch two or three. These subjects arc taught by speclal masters, and the forms ore rearrang- ed for these lessons according to the boss’ pro- ficfeney in the various subjects. Boys who are suflictently advanced in imuthematics to be thought capable of learning science with nd- vantage exchange the two natural sclence Jea- sons for the sainu tyme at additional mathe- matics, And those who are backward jn Freoch bave three lessons a week inatead of two. St the Upper School and Sizth Form the diviston of time {ss ttle altered. German is made an alternative to natural science, und the majority of boys give ratber more time to clasaica umd loss to mathematics; but there fa n regulation that boys in the Upper School may be excused some portion of their classical work upon enter- ing upon a course of extra instructionin Enctish, mathematics, modern languages, or natural sciences. ‘There sre three terms, with holidays at midsummer, Christinas, and Easter. Betore the midsummer holidays # through examina- tion of the school is conducted by examiners sent down by the Oxford and Cambridge Ex- amining Board, with the nelp of the masters tor all parta below the Sixth. ‘Tbree exbibltivus of a yenr ond four of $160 are given away an- nually 1p accordance with the results of this ex- aminatlon, Betore Christmas the masters ex- amine the school, interchanging forms for the purpose. And before Easter there {s a slight exatnination comprisad in twodays. In allcaxes promotion. from form to form is settled by acom- bination of the results of the examination with those of the half-sear’s work, each subject taught having a fixed percentaze of marke al- lotted to it out of the gencral total. Rising in the school thus depends upon a gentle but per- petual competition, se HUMOR. A lost star—A sailor overboard. Asham-poo—Affected contempt. Never look a gift mule in the bind foot.
