However, we may note that we fully agree yith the Globe, in the first place, that a successfu} agitation in favor of a purely legislative union would be utterly fatal to the pretensions of Ottawa as the future capital of British North America ; and also that «"such a legislativé union‘‘â€" as would concentrate the management of all the local affairs of all the Provinces between the Atlantic and the Pacific, at one Capital, whether that might be Ottawa, Mortreal, Quebec or Halifaxâ€"* we xever sware naye â€"not at least for generations to come.

(On the contrary their whole efforts throughout the electoral campaigo, now closing, have been directed towards bringing about an exactly opposite result, by establishing, or seeking to establisi», harmony between the Local and General Goâ€" vernments, and between the ruling political sentiment of the several Provinces. In this work they have been eminently successful, it we except the single Province of Nova Scotia ; and who we may ask in Ontario have enâ€" couraged the enemies of the Constitaton in that Province?

The serâ€" viee performed by the :‘elegraph is almost in every respect similar:to that performed by the post oflice, except in regard to the time oceupied, and the circumstance that in the one case information is sent under cover ; in the otherâ€"in the eonthlence of the telegraph operators. .

Is there any reason to suppose that hke reâ€" sults would not follow were the same prinâ€" ciples applied to telegraphy?

Yesterâ€". day the sergeant visited the tavern in Upper Town, where he boards when in town, but: did not find him there. Seeing a man leave the house under ciroumstances which led Davis to suppose he was sent by the landlord to warn Carpenter that he was wanted by the policeman, the latter followed the messenâ€" ger, who stopped to speak to a young man whom he met on the street, and who was not ‘suspected until he began to run; then Davis gave chase, and was led to the Chau diere, where the fugitive took ~ winding paths and ultimately, finding himself closely pressed, took to the river and reached a boom over which he ran to some logs at the further end, and Davisafter him. Secing there was no safety for him there, he again took to the river and swam ashore, Davis still following, reâ€" solved on taking his game, but Carpenter reached ferra firma first, and succeeded in eludâ€" ing his pursuer, Presently the sergeant got on to Wellingtonâ€"st., where he, recovered his trail, which was the wet dripping out of his ‘ clothes, and by this succeeded in tracing him ‘ to the tavern where ho boards, and made the arrest. â€" While the race was going on, several reports came in to the City Hall where the policemen were, and several of them joined the pursuit,. fatiguing themselves exâ€" cessively, meantime the sergeant came in with ‘his man when be had a hearing before Mr. Langrell. The complainant being sworn, told the story of the assault, and shewed a pair of black eyes and a badly bruised face in corrobâ€" oration of his verbal testimony. Carpenter pleaded guilty, and said, about four years ago, when he was only sixtéen years old, and unâ€" able to take care of himself, and having just left home for the first time, he was working under the complajnant, who was pilot on a rait, and was greatly illâ€"used by him, and on ongâ€"occasion Perage seized him, and threatenâ€" ed to throw him into the river, ‘The prisoner told his persecutor at the time that he should be a man some day, and then he should talk to him about it. Monday last was the first time he had seen him since, and then he did talk to him and struck him. Mr. Langrell gave him a moral lecture on revenge, &c., and fined him $2 and costs, altogether $5,50, RETURN OF We learn that the R. C.

Michel station at 6:30 a. n. There were present the Duke of Vallambrossa ; Mr. Fcll, the inventor of the system; Mr. Brogden, a director of the company ; Mr. Brunfces, the engineer, and his assistant, Mr. Bell ; Mr. Blake, the agent of the company ; | Mr. Alexander and Mr. Barnes, locomotive engineers; Signor Copello, chief engineer for the Modane section of the tunnel ; Captain Bepumont, R.E.; Mr, James Brogden, Mr. Jopling, Mr. Morris, and Ctdnflnr'?ylcf.

As the little train passed the village of Fourneau, the workmen of the Grand ‘Tunnel of the Alps turned out en mazse, and, as at all other parts of the route, they were observed stooping down | and even endangering their lives for the purâ€" pose of inspecting the unusual mechanisin of the engine for working on the central rail, The first very steep gradient of one in twelve was seen in passing Modane, and, foreshortened to the view, appeared on the approach as if impossible to surmount; but the engine, the second constructed on this system, had already rmvcd equal to the task on experimental ine, and, clutching the cental rail between its ‘;on:onu& wheels, it glided quickiy up, under a pressure of stcam not more that 80 Ib, to the square inch, without apparent effort. The progress was purposely slow, because no engine or carriage had previously passed over the line, and also to give opportunity for exâ€" amining the works. â€" The damages to the road on which the line was chiefly laid were found to be substantially repaired by the French government. The magnificent scenery around, and the waterfail near Fort. Sessailion, were much admired as the sharp curves afforded different views while passing on the edges of the deep ravines. â€" The train eutered Lansleâ€" bourg station under a triumphal arch, having accomplished 24 miles of distance and attained an elevation of 2,100 feet above St. Michel, From this point the zigzage of ascent com» | mence, and the gradients over a distance of | four miles were for the most part one in ; twelve. Looking down from the train near | the summit, as if from a balloon, four of the | zigzags were visible at the same instant, to a | depth of two thousand feet. . The power of the | engine was satisfactorily W in this ascent, | and the summit was reached under salyos of artillery from an improvised battery, and amid the cheers of French and Italians who | had gathered to welcome the English on the frontier. ‘The engine again came to a stand under a triumphal arch, at an clevation of | 6,700 feetabove the sea. Flags of the three | nations, and a silk flag specialiy presented by | Signor Ginmoli to Mr. Fell, waved over a lungfioubrnktug also provided by that gentleman. ‘The hospice, the lake, and the plateau of the summit, surrounded by snowâ€" clad peaks and glaciers, rising to an elevation of from 10,000 feet to 13,000 feet were passed, and the portion of the descent .commenced from the Grand Croix. The railway here folâ€" lows the old Napoleon road, which was abandoned long since for diligence traffic on account of the dangers from avalanches. < Maâ€" mr{-ooveted ways of extraordinary strength had here been specially provided for the railâ€" The descent to Suss was a series of the sharpest curves and steepest gradients, on which the central rail had been continuously laid. ‘The Valley of the Dora, with Susa and the Convent of San â€" Michel, and even the Supergaabove Turin, visible for thirty miles in the distance, presented a magnificent panoâ€" rama, as the train wound through a clear atâ€" mosphere round the mountain side. . The conâ€" fidence of the putly on a trip which would, under ordinary â€" cireumstances have beenâ€"so dangerous, was manifested by their crowding round all parts of the engine, from which, under a feeling of the security afforded by the central rail, they thoroughly enjoyed the everâ€" changing scenes as they passed round the edges of the various precipices. Susa was enâ€" tered amid the acclamations of multitudes of Montreal, 14th Sept nccuton, and the party adjourned to dine at the Hotel de France. Thus was completed a journey unexampled in its character both as respects the stcepness :‘JM the elevation of the summit level the difficulty with which the curves and precipices were overcome, â€"â€"An English newspaper correspondent says : 4 I am sorry to inform you that Mr. Charles Dickens is in a very critical state of bealth, and that his intended voyage to America is prompted as much by sanitary as other conâ€" siderations.

To guard againsta strong vibtation, great weight of the bridge, with an abundance of girders, trusses and stays, are 1 , and these requirements have been‘ fulflled.
