[ho Thrilling Adventures of an Ambitiou, Anateur Actor and Playwright. From the Boston Post, Gallagler is satisfied. The facts are hose: Gallagher was the President of dramatic clib and wrote a piece for iemll. It called for nine persons, and verylbody ill the cast except Gallaghel onlsidered that he or she had the Vorst part, tid that it, was made so on: irpose. At first they didn't proposc o play, but. finally decided to do so, mdll concocted a plan to punish Gal ughier. lie played the hero, and ill lie first act said farewell to his moth r atnd went oi' to sea, and wtell shc >arted wvith him she contrived tc vrench his head and scratch his nosc Im at pinl fixed inl the Shoulder of bick Iress for tihat purpose. Th'tt eased ter mind and disturbed his. But htc ublnitted. In the next act lie appear. c1 oil shipboard, and had to be knock (I down by the cruel captain, who lilt lim so eirilestly with a belaying-pill hat it nearly killed him. And then vlhion he headed the mtintinv and cried 0 the mutineers, "Follow me I" some. iody opened ai I rap tnld he ignlolilni. tisly fell through it. and got terribly ;nyed by the audience. lie was awful iad, but dletermineied to conquer in pite of the disaster. and so camc1 up udl went on with the play. in lie third act he was to have a ter ible cotbat with lie villain ofthe play, nd whip him. Ir. 1lencoop Smytlh ilaved the part. Ic was satistied1 that e had the worst part. inl the piece and hat (Gallaghier ilade it so to spite hi)n. iillagher, as lie cliiched him, cried: 'Villain, I'll beat your lifi' out inl two ecoids." But lie didn't. The villain vas the strongest man, aid the way ic lathered Gallagher abont tie stage as awful. Vhen it calme to that oint wherc the villain was to cry, 'Let 3m1 up ! 1'in crushed !" he had a allagler jamied under the table, and t'as beating hin with a chair-leg-, and 'f course his speecht and Ga'lgher's eply, "'1 will not spare your life!" oitnded absurd. Before the villain onsented to be overcome, he had got he atudience to shricking witi laugh r, and had heaten (allagher black nd blue all over. (lallagher went omlte terribly eiiwaged. and the rest of lIe ceoillalny were delighted. The piece was to be played the next ight, an(1 (.llalgheQr reliorted hinself :)o ill to appear. But lie sent. a substi utie.

THE TEHUANT2PE1 P tOUTIC. ?roposed Ship Itallroad 13otween to Twe Oceans. From the San FrancIsco Call. Captain James 13. Ends has come to he front again with his project of a hip railway across Tehauntepec. The oncession lie has obtalned from the dexican government places his pro. ect in a line wth the other inter lceanic routes, so far as right of way s coucerned. Mexico, like Panama mid Nicaragua, desires to have the 'oute from ocean to ocean established heross her territory. Tehultepec is hout sixteen degrees llorth of the quator, and about eight degrees torth of Panama. Nicaragua lies be. ween, but nearer Tehuantopec than o Panama. One jreat point of ad rantage In favor of rehuantepec is the aet tbhtt. Ps western terminus is in the Yulf of Mexico. The same body of vater which will receive the freight rannsported over the Southern Pacific failroad will also receive the ships arried across the Tehautepec route. L'he railroad connects with the north rn extremity of the gulf, and the ship aliway with the southern. The ad antage of tlhis connection in case of var would be gre'at as it would be tuclh easier to close the Gulf of Mex e.O to hostile fleets than to protect ves els crossing from Panana into the vaters of the Caribbean Sen. Captain rads' method is new, but no doubts re entertained among experienced en oiners of its entire practicability. hips may be transported in stays, to revent, straining, or they may be anied in a bed of water and trans orted across In that element, literally minghing the waters of one ocean with hose of another on each trip. Cap Etin Eads oflIrs to demonstrate the nitire practicability of his method at is own expense. The feature of his iroposition to which objection may be irged is that which looks to a govern imit guarantee of interest on $50, 00,000 of' bonds.
