The new project is a canrl across the Isthâ€" mus of Corinth, in the south of Greece, for the purpose of shortening the route from the Mediterrancan to the Agein and Bluck Seas, and to avord the dangers of doubling Cape Matapan. ‘The dangers of navigoting the Pelopounesian Seas were well known to the ancients, and it is re corded that trequent attempts, but unsueâ€" cessfaily, were made to cut across the Isthâ€" mus ‘of Coricth which at the narrowest point is only about five miles in width. Strabo says that a famous engineer of his time, abandoned the enterprise because the two gults on the opposite sides of the Isthâ€" mus were not on the same level, and anoth er historian, Dio Cassins gives as the reaâ€" \ son for not proceeding with the work that when digging commeneed, blood issued | from the ground, groans and lamentations | were heard and that terrible apparitions : were seen.

This line of railway is at present receiv. ’ing much attention, not only from the pubâ€" [ lie more immediately interested in its working, but also from its vneigh! oring, and |rival, railway eorporations. For years the T. G. & B., has been falling into a dilapi« dated state, and the manazement of its business bas been of a very nnsotisfuctory charaeter, but of late it has been determinâ€" ed to repair the line, widen the gange and generally, to place the road in a first class condition. _ Overtures bave been made by the Northern and Grand Trunk Railway Companies, for the working of the } road aftea the repairs are completed, and as might be expected, the manicipalities along the line of the T. G, & B., are up in arms for or against, the one or the othe r, A8 their individual interests may direct. At the meeting of the County Counaeil of Grey held the week before last at Owen Sound, the railway | sitaation _ was formally brought before the Council in the Warden‘s | address. The discussion whieh followed was not, as we learn,of a very harmonious _| Pope eansed prayers to be said in all the | churehes, and the bells to be rung every |day at noon. Howeyver, the progress of | science has shown these alurms to be groundâ€" | tess. The maiter of which comets are comâ€" | posed is of such great tennity that a colluision | with any of the bodies of the solar system ‘ would be perfectly innocuous. That the tail of the comet, extending as it did in the large comet of 1848 to the length of one hundred and fifty millions of miles, meâ€"y wrap a portion of our atmosphere or even | the earth itself within its folds is possivle, and in this way climatic conditions may be affected,but nothing further need be feared. Yome suppose that comets exercise a salâ€" ubrions effect on both the auimal and yegâ€" etable worlds. Thus im France, the abunâ€" Jance and enperior quality of the vintages of 1811 and 1858 have been attributed to the influence of the comets which apâ€"| pesred in these years, and hence the wines | of 1811 and 1828 are known as Comet wines ; it may be, that the appearance of f the comet of the eurrent year may be folâ€" f lowed 1y <imilarly bappy results. v density from that forming the head or nuâ€" cleus. It has also been determined that comets are not selfâ€"luminous, in this reâ€" | spect resembling theâ€"planets ; the light of ltln sun being refected and polarized in the same way that it is reflected by the atâ€" Illm-phem of the earth. In ancient times r comets ware regarded as portents of evil,and som»tim>s of good. Te appearanc» of the Comet of 887 so alarmed Lonis 1,0f France, ‘ that he ordered the lnuilding of churches and monastries with the view of appeasing the wrath of Heaven; and the appearance of Halley‘s Comet in 1456, just as the Torks hadgbecome masters of Constantinople, and threatened an advance on Europe, was reâ€" garded with snch enperstitious dread by all ’ Christendom, that to the Ave Maria was added the prayer, ‘Lord save us from the Devil, the Turk and t‘e Comet,‘ and the THE TORONXTO GREY & RRUCE morthinas d ... t i2 ‘ to be favored with, and no doubt with practice and a fuller search into the depths of Theology and Science he will ere long become one of the first preachers of the Methodist Chureh of Canada.

T.ilc. oo t gt o While at Nippissing I had the pleasure o an ercursion on board the Iuterâ€"Ocsan s named as the waters on which she snil are about mid way between the Atlantic and Pacific. ‘The boat Las been built ‘dor. ing the past winter and is a very fine boat. being 200 feet kee} and 80 feet wide, hay. ing both upper and lower deek, alifitted up well, and reflects no small eredit on the builders. She sails between Nippissing South East Bay and Stargeon river, The Brant settiement which is aboutfive miles from Big Beud is an exteusive Dateh settlement , and seeming in good cirenmâ€" stances, most of them having large clear ings. _ The Government rond leading through this settiement leaves the Nippisâ€" sing road about one mile nbove Commanda, It is generally understood that during the sumimer of 1882, the Government will make a road from this settiement via Big Bend to South East Bay, the point where the Canada Central Railway tonches Lake Nippissing. This will be a great boon to this as well as the other settlements through which it will pase, giving them the advanâ€" tage of railway facilities within A distauce ‘ of ten miles. | _ The largest tract of arable land which I Isnw was in the township of Hunsworth, There is a large settlement on South river ,cnllcd the Big Bend settlement, which three or four years ago was a wilderness, but the forest bhas suceumbed to the axe of the woodman and now there is a good settleâ€" ment, with a large area of clearings. The ‘ land is ar foxecl ent elay loam, A Mr. Clark, formeriy of the village of Alton, is erecting a sawâ€"mill at this place which he intends having in operstion in the course of a month or two. A foreman for one of the | lumbering companies informed me that the land is first class for miles east of the Big’ Bend. The land between Maganetawan â€"and Nippissing is somewhat similar to that beâ€" tween Rossean and Maganetawan only the rock gradually disanpears as you approach Nippissing. _ Nippissing village is rituated on a beautiful tract of level land about three miles from the luke, after which it is named, the hbort coming np the river tu} within a half mile of the village,. Theland in the immediate viciuity of Nippissing is‘ somewhat rocky but when you go eight or nine miles cast, a benautiful tract of level cxiutry, appears, well watered by the South river, with occassional falls which prove very valuable for mills and umuufuc-’ turing purposes, ‘ From Magavetawan to Commanda the conveyunce is ustage, carrying the mail, and o%e prssencer. If I mistake not they call it a spring board. It is twenuty two miles, and the stage driver who had no merey on horse flesh, made the run, includ» ing all stoppages in nine hours and thirty. two minutes. _ After the first of July there is to be u good stage conch put on this Iine‘ which will mane the trip from Maganctaâ€" wan to Nippissing in seven hours and n’ half, a distance of thirtyâ€"four miles. l Maganetawan hbas improved very rap» 1dly during the past four years, a large number of fine frame buildings having been erected. â€" There are three or four ver y fine stores, a splendid hbotel, a grist and saw will, and three neat frume churches, any of which would do credit to many villages in the older townslups, | On the whole we had a very plessant vo age except when we came in contact with the sawâ€"logs which caused some not vory pleasing sensations,. Upon reaching Port Carling we left the Rosseauâ€" and went aboard the Nippissing, a large side wheel steamer and reached Rosseau about 11 p.ma. This place is one of the most famous of summer resorts in Ontario where tourists congregate in great numbers during the summer season, drawn thither no doult by the beautiful scenery, splendid fishing, and ample hotel accommodation afforded at this point. At present there is a very large three story Hotel and another in course of erection. At Rossean we took the stage for Maganetawan. ‘The vehicle on this parâ€" ticular day being a lumber waggon, the regular coach having been disabled. The romud trom Rosseau northwards is very rough and rocky which rendered the ride far from pleasant. One of the passengers an old lady of seventy years, had to be left at Spence and a more comfortable rig provided. The land from Rosseau to Magâ€" | anetawan is very rocky, some of it being pure rock for miles. There is not lnnd, enough to make a settlement, but bad as it is there are settlers hewing out for themâ€" selves a home, here and there along the road, and some villages. Most of tlmz.el living on the Nipis:ing road will tell you | that there is excellent land just a fm" miles to either side of the good road. ' \ To the Editor of the Grey Review. Sir,â€"According to promise L now give ’ you a short account of my trip through the Muskoka and Parry Sounddistricts.
