A great enterprise — floating vessels around Niagara Falls. --Horace H. Day, Esq., of New York, laid before the Transportation Committee of the Board of Trade, on the 26th instant, his plan for a ship canal, with double inclined planes, the vessel always floating in water around the Falls of Niagara, whereby it is possible to take a ship of the largest tonnage adapted to the lake trade, and in half an hour pas it on the other side of the falls with her cargo undisturbed. The vast importance of this great invention to the commerce and prosperity of the whole country, but more especially to the development of the boundless West, which is the true seat of empire on this continent and the granary of the world, cannot be over-estimated. Mr. Day explained his system with clearness and with convincing force. He has taken hold of the subject with all his energy, and will surely accomplish his purpose, for men who put their souls into great enterprises "know no such word as fall."

ent to defeat that policy in the House, already exist there. All that is wanted is a leader for the moderate and conservative Republicans. If Mr. Raymond will assume that position, it will be cheerfully conceded to him. But he must first come out boldly and strongly in defence of the President's policy. If he will not do so, some other leader will be found. The Southern members of Congress have only gone home to spend the Christmas holidays. They will all be here again by the middle of January. Before the adjournment of Congress, they had an interview with the President, and he gave them such encouragement as leads them to believe that they will all be admitted before the close of this session, and some of them, those from Tennessee, Arkansas and Virginia, at a very early period. Soon after the 9th of January an attempt will be made to refer the credentials of these members to the Committee on Elections. If this attempt is successful, the battle, is won; for that committee wil

ent without any risk of the harmonious restoration of full Federal authority. Refurnishing the white House. As soon as the confusion attendant upon the New Year's levee at the White House shall be got through with, a force of workmen will commence the thorough renovating and renewal of furniture authorized by the late active mandate, viz: that support of the Executive policy is to be hereafter the price of patronage.-- Washington Correspondent Chicago Times.

Important, if true. --A letter, dated Washington, December 25th, states that the Southern delegates had held a caucus, and determined to go home, and there remain until the fourth of March, at least. On the succeeding day, says the same letter, the Secretary of State, in conversation with Senator Segar, remarked that the Southern members would all be admitted upon the re-opening of the session, and advised Mr. Segar to return by that time, if he should leave the capital. --What reliance can be placed in the statement we cannot say; but conjecture, not much. However, it is proper to say that the probability of an early admission of the Southern delegates is reported by several of the industrious letter-writers in the Federal city. The correspondent of the New York News states that, on the re-assembling of Congress, and attempt will be made to refer the credentials of the Southern representatives to the Committee on Elections; and that if it succeeds the battle will have be

Additional details of Foreign News. The Atlantic cable — operations to be Resumed in June--the submerged Wire in perfect order. Mr. George Seaward, General Superintendent of the Atlantic Telegraph Company, publishes the following letter in the London Times, December 12: In the review of the work by Dr. W. H. Russell on the subject of the Atlantic Telegraph Expedition in 1865, which appears in your columns this day, the expedition referred to is spoken of as "the late, and possibly, for some time to come, as the last Atlantic expedition." In making use of this expression the writer was necessarily unaware of events which have recently transpired, and I am, therefore, instructed to ask of you the favor to allow me to state that the arrangements of the directors as to new capital are now completed, that several hundred miles of the core, or interior portion of the cable, are completed, andthat the Great Eastern is chartered to go to sea in June, 1866, for the double purpos

utterly inconsistent with the asseverations of Boniface that the General has no mission at all, the Pays goes on to adopt the stale and absurd story that General Logan is merely accredited to Juarez because President Johnson, having the patronage of a salary already voted, wished to give it to a personal friend. [from the London Pall Mall Gazette, December 9.] It is a singular coincidence that the General has come to France just at the moment when the rumor of a counterpart of the September Convention having been arranged between the Emperors Napoleon and Maximilian had been revived. This rumor is repeated in many well-informed quarters, and it is added that, as a sort of compensation for the withdrawal of the French troops, the government in Paris intends to establish a large foreign legion, consisting chiefly of Frenchmen and Belgians, for Mexico. The Emperor Maximilian is said strongly to support this project. There is a rumor that the General will visit England to prev
