Jonson, JOHN BULL SCARED. The Submarine Tunnel 2 Means of Invasion. London Times, June 3. We hear once again of the scheme for the construction of naubinaring tunnel between the English and the French shores. Shafts have been sunk off the English and French Shores, and ‘they hava cncountered on both shies of the Channel whnt appears to bea solld uniform stratum of chalk, impervious towater. If there ty no “fault” anywhere {i this, the question of driving « gallery through {ts whole length becomes one of tine and expense. “From one of tho shafts onthe English side a gallery some 800 or 000 yards in Jength and seven feet in dinmeter has already been driven. ‘This is to be con- tinued for a mile, and a corresponding plece of work 1s to be done from the French side. If no obstruction is met on elther side, §E the chalk stratum continues solid and un- broken, the probability Is that the sane yeo~ logien! character.will_ be found to exist dure jos tho remaining miles. When this point, herefore, has been reached, when the first inlle of gallery has been completed from the two extremes on either const, tha rest of the undertaling may be pushed on with ao good prospect of success, In Slr Edward Watkin's opinion, five years will be enough for the completion of the whole thing. The necessary finds are to be found by a special eampnny, workuyg in treaty with the South- eastern Railway, and subinitting to its con- trol and supervislon. For the mechanical part of'the work uspeclal machine has been uvented and has wivult satisfactory results, aA gallery ten miles in length Is to be driven’ from the English side and is te be thet hulGway weross by & cor- responding gallery ‘from the French side.’ ‘The junction’ of the two galleries will be the Junction of England and France, ‘The narrow seis will be no donger ant obsta- to i free uninterrupted communication 1 the two coustries, England will be Unked on to the Continent, and the Journey between London and Paris, or Lone don and any other Continental city, will be shortened und slinplitied for. all purposes, The traveler who takes his seat at Charln; Cross will be put down at the Gare di Nord, or at any other inore distant point he pleases, The whole wiestion nbout the tunnel, as Str Edward Watkin views It, cat be divided into ‘twe parts, Cun tha thing be done, and, if 80, can it bo done within u reasonable thne? ‘The answer be finds is satisfactory on both points; sud he proceeds necordlugly to the tinanelal side of tho business, and dwells coiplacently on the tratiic profits of the Southenstert: Raitway ag they are likely to be alfected by the enterprise, ‘But thera are other interests to be consid- ered. ‘The advantages Sir Edward Watkin offers have an obvious and essential draw- back.
