Mr. Alfred Monne, one of Mr. Krupp's
engineer*, who hai Itad charge of the
transportation of the gun, h i* come here
for the purpose of *uperii)tendinff its
delivery on the Centennial ground* in
good order, etc The powerful *tmrn
derrick of the Junction e»r work* will
l>e employed in raining the iroa mori
iter. It will be remembered that dur
ing the war »everal of our largest gun*,
aome weighing fortv one ton*, were
transferred by Mr. tlliaon at thin
wharf. But, powerful a* this derrick
is, it would t)C almost impossible,owing
to it* position in the hold, to raise this
gun ax a dead weight. The ahip'« tackle
will Im* call I into requisition also, and
it in the intention of the engineer* now
in charge to raise the gun by blocking
up fir-it one end and then the other, and
hoisting by means of a tacklu made
fast to the trunnions. Once al«>ve tin
deck it will !>e transferred to the great
10 wheel gun traek belonging to the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company which
is to ba brought here for thi* purpose.
The truck is built especcinll j for the
carriage of heavy gun*, and itself
weighs about forty tons, or a« much as
a locomotive. The gun carriage it is
said, weight 47 ton*. It will 1>« seen,
therefore, that the whole weight—truck,
gun snd enrriagt —-amounts to tin- enor
mous total of, aa\, ISO ton*. Fortunately
no long Irtridtfe* have to be croused.

OFFICII—M. Thiers ha* not boon in
power for throe year*, but bis idea*
•till rule ; h<* told me ycgtcrady that he
like* that better. A great mind a* he
it, prefers to see it* policy in power
rather thnn itself. The proof it that
in these three year* he hat not grown
older; if he ha* nny chagrin it came
from seeing the reaction tail to recog
nise hi* aim. It ha* tinctured my
view* of bumanjty with eome bitter no**
to remark thai the saloons of M.
Thiers are muoa more crowded finer
the election* have proved him to be
right. There are people who worship
the rising sun ; 1 prefer thiwe who turn
to the setting, or even the sun already ,
set. That is, in regard to friendship.
M. Thiers has no rancor ; ho knows
men too well to assume an iron port.
He is the talker ;«ir riftlUnct always.
It is a keen pleasure to hear him «tart off |
from politic*, trover*' philosophy, pause
before the walls of nrt, and enliven his
gossip with the figure* of celebrated
wouien. Always new and unexpected,
sometime* you would say tbnt you
heard history herself talking ; some
time* you are in the preeenee of a phi
loMopher like Mantaign. panting (wan
this to thst topic, l»orne by hi> fire and
fancy. 1 tell you, verily, it is the mint
cle of eiMiveraation. And that |H.riH>tu
el malice, even in hi* gravity llow,
in his disdain, he smiles with a senti
ment of Christian charity on all this fu
ry of parties and part* nssumed'
Nothing is strong enough to anger him
lake a blood Oil be will not let
himself be tiMiehed ; he thanes his hewrt
•loft and speed* whether he please*.
Like Voltair, he but one
master—the love of Humanity, and one
opinion—the public opinion of to mor
row. But a small number of women
vieit M. Thiers, for the reaaon that
women do not know how to listen—ex
cept when vou speak to them of them
selves. tftveriheless. the feminine
auditory is charming. Madame Theirs,
who keep# all the characteristic* of her
provcrhinl beauty ; Mile D wnc, all wit
and facinatiou ; the Dutches* Cohmna,
that aeulptrcss who chisela marble and
words; the Princes* Troubetaky, hun-
KJ for politic*, and finnllv, Madame
enrv Houssave do Tennevill de Arag \
with now and then a distinguished for
eign lady, pnasing through Pari*.

Gmhat Salt Lake Htf.amly Kt
•IVU.—A correabotulent writing to the
Salt Lake IhraU from Black rock, on
the lake. UTi: Of late there has been
•ome agitation about the using of the
Uka: hen as I thought to giee you
the rtconi since September 15, 1873, a
tuouuineut having b»vu put up by Dr.
•• f*wk, aud weekly observations
warta with the following reaulta: Dur-
iog the month ending October 14th the
water fell 2 inches : to November I6th
2$ laches: to December 14th, rose 4
iiiche* : to January 11, 1476, rusa 3
inches: to Pebruary 11th, rose 1
mnch ; to March 15th. roaa 1| iochee
to April 17th. roaa 3 tnche* ; to May 1S
roa* 3 inches ; showing a total for the
eight moths over the fall of 14 inches.
I have also sounded the lake from the
shore to Black rock. After leaving
the shot> a few feet the depth vanes
from eight to eleven feet. This is
where the pioneers walked over dry
sh'id twenty-six years ago, on a reef of
rocks. My too ad itigs poved to me
that the reef of rocks had worn away,
so all of this depth cannot be attributed
to the risking of the water alone
That the water baa great force eras
shown by yeeterday's storm, whan boul
ders weighing as moch as a ton were
wasbrd awsy from Black rock. It
also mover) m three boors a batik of
gravel four feet thick into the lake,
which had washed up ab«>g the shore
during the last thrre yeara.
