The bill says that the oompan? is formed for the purpose of construoting, m ai nt i Jnfag and operating, fa connection with the Kiag- ara River, a hydranlio tannel, er subterran- ean sewer, for tiie pobllo uaeof sewerage and drainage and for fnmishfag hydiauUo power for maanfacturing purposes fa the town of Niagara. The capital stock is to be $200 000 at first, with %b» right of Inorease to 13.000,000. The plan iaa sim^a one. A great pipe or abaft ia to be out throngh the reck cloaa by and paraUal witii the Niagara River, 160 feet deep uid rnonfag half a mile or more back from the falls. The open end ef this littie shaft or tunnel is to empty oat of the roAatthe fallaa.feot or two above the level of the water below theoaaoade. Whenever a company wants water power It may sfak a vertical shaft frem the surface almost down to this horizontal shaft. In the bottom of thia verlioal shaft a turbfae wheel b to be placed, and below this a smaller abaft, for a tail race, will carry the water from the wheel to the great horizontal shaft, which will then work aa ia waate pipe to carry off the water In order to get the needed water to drive the wheel it will only be necessary to bcild cut a short pier on the river shore to catch the edge of the swiftly flowing cnrrent and divert a little of it, by meana of a ditch or p-pe, fato the vertical shaft, and ao past the wheel and through the great subterranean shaft and back fato the nver agafa below the falls. These vertical ahafta are to be big enongh to admit ene or two of the workmen, who muat plaoe the turbfae fa porition and after- ward attend to It. It is said that a wheel ai big aa a man's hat will aupply 200 horae power, thoogh thia waa aaid oareleaaly by the reporter's Informant, who acknowledged nnoertafaty as to tiie precise amount. The plan is to sell to manufacturing oer- porations the right to sink ahafta aa cloae together as praotioable along the Ifae of the great waate shaft. A glorious success is prophesied for the company. It ia said that cheap, steady, reliable power is so great an item fa manufactures that a committee of Connecticut mill owners declared that it would pay them to remove their mOls and factories to the town of NiagMa. Freshets, droughts, and ice play misohief with those fatere»ts tbat depend on water power throughout New Eiigluid, but no such an- noyance, it is said, attends the use of Niag- ara water power. The Niagara never freezes, never overflows, and never runs dry.
