Reports from Europe state that the French Government is about granting a charter to a company formed for the purpose of excavating a tunnel under the Strait of 1 lover, and thus connect ing Great Britian and France by mean of a railway. This project wa started several years ago, but its practicability was doubted, under the impression that the tunnel would have to lie blasted through the rock, requiring an immense expediture or money. It i now, however, confidently asserted bv geologists tliat the lied of the Straits of iwver is composed of cray .chalk, which can be easily bored tlirough. Under tlie view tliat the lied was composed of hard rock it was esti mated that the tunnel would cost fifty millions of dollars, and would bike ten years in its construction. Under the thetiry tliat ttie bed of the British Channel between Dover and Calais is formed of chalk, it Las been calculated that two tunnels can be completed in four years at a cost of twenty millions. The passage of the British Channel in tlie ordinary small steamlioat is so excessively disagreeable in stormy weatlier that many persons are deterred from crossing. Should tlie Strait of Dover lie tunnelled, there, is no doubt but that the mmilier of travellers passing under the tied of tlie British Channel would lie very great, particularly as the time of tlie journey from Iover to Calair would lie Blnirt ened to a thirty minutes stay in a rail way car.

Dr. Sayre, one of the physicians, is of the opinion that the wound will not prove fatal, but his confreres are of tlie opin ion tliat the patient cannot recover. THE SHOOTING Was doubtless caused by the way things were going on in the Courts. The case at Yorkville this .morning went against Stokes, and it was in timated tliat ths Grand Jury would probably indict both Stokes and Mrs. Mansfield a blackmailer. It was even said tliat Judge Ingraliam liad issued orders for tlu ir arrest. THE WOUND Is of a terrible nature. The pistol is a large-sized revolver, and tlie wound is like that of a ball from a Minnie rifle. Tlie doctors liave LITTLE IIOFE OF HIS RECOVEUT, Being unable to extract the ball, and mortification, it is expected, will set In. Colonel Fisk TOOK HIS INJURIES BRAVELY, Never flinching from the sharp prolie ofthe surgeons in their vain attempt to find the bullet. At 1 o'clock this morning Colonel Fisk was in s. sound sleep. About midnight A CONSCI.ATIOX OF rHTSICIANS Was held, and it was decided not to attempt to probe the wound again lor the present, for tear that inflammation would set in. The wound is healthy in appearance, and no blood is passed by the victim. At 8 o'clock to-morrow morning ANOTHEB CONSULTATION Will be held. Dr. Canioeban, tlie Health Officer of the port, states tliat the wound is very critical but there are hopes of recovery, as all the symptoms are favorable. A crowd lias surround ed tlie station where Stokes is confined. The STsk-TCaiiKficld Suit. Allusion is frequently made in the foregoing dispatch to tlie Fisk-Mans-tielil, suit, out of which grew tlte shots that may probably terminate the life and close the eventful career of James Fisk Jr., and a briet insight into the suit will certainly interest tlie reader. Helen Josephine Mansfield was for vears the mistress of tiie redoubtable Colonel, the sharer of his joys, his great wealtji, and, wliat was worst lor Fisk. his business secrets. Tliere ap-l-ar3 to have been a complete infatua tion on Fisk. part for this woman, an infatuation which, as we have said, oirried him to tlie greatest leugths. Having control of both hi heart and purse, THE WHIMS OF THE FAUt HELEN Xever went ungnitified, and stories of her exploits and brilliant extrava gancies have mug the laud. The gal lant. Colonel was lavish a a Prince, and it is probable that he really enter tained for this frail, erring woman a feeling deejier and more earnest than men usually betow on their para mour. THE SNAPPING OK THIS TIE. How, when or by what means it occurred does not much matter, but there eame a lime, when the tie which bound these twain wa snapped asun der, never to be restored again ever more. There was a scandal, a separa tion, and then I lie matter died out and people ceased to gossip almut the differences of the pair. It appears, however, that at the time of this sepa ration Fisk had in Ids possession so at least the fair Helen alleges! some iroUOOO or SrlO.(KK) of his initres' money deposited witn him to lie in vested for her account. The refusal of Fisk to give up the amount, brought about the now famous litigation. Mrs. Mansfield, forswearing the Colonel, took to her arm a certain Edward S. Stoke, a broker of some sort in Xew York, and the two made common cause aguint the recalcitrant Fik. I.A UEI.I.E IIEI.KNK. This suit lias been in progress 'now for near two months, and has attracted a great deal ot attention. Mrs. Mans field's apiiearance in tlie Court-room a a witness created no end ot a sen sation, the reporter describing her lieauty in glowing and rapturous term. 1 he suit poccd a lieeuhar. albeit adventitious, interest for the wlmle nation, liecane the beautiful Manlic!d threatened constantly to star tle the public with such revelations of I- ik s allair and operation as should shake the country to its very center. In these threatened disclosure it was said that Tweed. Sweeny. Hall, and the Tammany Ring, together with those concerned in the Erie corpora tion would play the most conspicuous part. A Thrilling Story. Capt. John Hobb. a famous ranger and Indian tighterof Souora and Nor thern Mexico, has probably suffered greater hardships from and ha gainei a greater knowledge ofthe plain and frontier Indian than any white man living in this country. Tlie exploits of thi individual utterly overshadow the deeds ot the reuowed Kit Carson, with whom he was intimately ac quainted, and completely surpass- the doings of 'Buffalo Bill" and "California Joe." whose names in connection with Indian lighting have been la-fore the public in various periodicals during the past seven year. When but a mere lad be gained a great reputation among the hardy backwoodsmen and trapper as a wonderful shot, as he had lieen known to bring down a deer at, four hundred yard. At eighteen lie wa a success ful trapper, and knew every elk path and otter pond for mile through the wilderness. Hi shrewdness attracted i the attention of Bent, the great St. I Louis fur trader, who secured hi j sen-ice. when nineteen. It is to this i incident that his subsequent niisfor ! tunes and ten year' captivity and j sufferings among tlie Comanche may ; be attributed. Siitly after entering I the service ofthe fur company, as the Captain related, he. and a companion, j -lean Battles, a French Canadian, : were sent to the Ciinerone Spring. near the bead water of the Arkansas l'iver. On the 17th of September. ! HI", a their luck had lieen bad, Bat- ties proposed to Hobb to start further j south, w'nere game wa supposed to lie i in abundance : the latter acquiesced. ! During the evening ofthe first day's trip Ilobbs trailed a builalo. Hi; capture is given in hi own vernacular. "Putting spur to my mare., said tiie Captain. "1 sihiii overhauled the var mint, which proved to lie a cow, which I killed. Rallies soon joined me. and after we cut oil all tlie meat we want ed we build a tire and bunked in for the night. Tlie following morning, while preiiaring our grub, a war party of twenty Comanche braves, with eight or ten Pawnee scalps, and a drove of stolen jio:ue appeared on the scene. Ibe leader ot the hand ad vanced toward me with outstretched hand, and growled out 'How?' answered him a friendly way. still keeping an eye on my shooting-iron. AH of a sudden one on the most de moniac veil tliat ever greeted a mor tal's ear wa given, ami before we could move the whole pack of hell hounds were ujioii us two poor devils. They killed poor Batties before my eyes, scalix'd him, took off his moc casins, secured hi rifle nnd ammuni tion, and then made for me. But the Chief somehow took a fancy tome and d rawed oil' the pack after they had a most finished me and had (he knife to my scalp. Look here." so saving the Captain iiartcd the thick black hair on the side of his head and a long white sear was revealed. " That' the com menciii' place." he resumed, "and in two minute tune longer 1 expect thev would have raised my top-knot, for certam. Do yon see tin?"' Here he Miintcd to a deep scar just above his inn tiche. at the right of the mm' " That another mark thev gave me with a tomaliau k on that occasion Well, to make a long story short, they carried me with them up to the moun tain. 1 hey danced a mm id me. sung and played on the tomtoms nearly all night, and to wind up they cut off my hair and commenced to cut. up my face, or what you might call it'.to tat too me. I objected so strongly that tney stopped it, nut tney managed to pur, a orass ring through my nose, This I were during my ten years captivity. I wa made a warrior, and went out with them on all their war and maurauding expeditions aero the Mexican border, and several times came near losing my lire while fighting the Apaches and Pawnees. All told. my body bears seventeen bullet and arrow wounds." "I remained with the red-skins two years before I was made a warrior. About six mouths after this event, while hunting alone in the mountain oi Lower .sonora, beam the breaking of a twig not far from where I was standing. I cocked my rifle, thinking it might be a cinna mon Iiear. 1 did not hear the sound again, but instead saw tlie cause of it in the shape of a big Pawnee warrior who stood partly concealed in a clump of chaparul about "ioo yards distant. We looked at each other fully five minutes without drawing :, bead suddenly he r.ticd his gun and fired al me without taking aim. I jumped to . i , . , t 1 rue rigniaiui ecapeu, sun Keeping an eye on the Pawnee ; he (lodged around. but I soon let bun have it square m the head and scalix-d him. Wlicn Hearing tlie lodges I got two ash poles. stuck the ends of each into tlie ears of the scalp it's the style of tlie Com anche to take ears and all and marched into camp. Five minutes later seven hundred warriors, headed by Old Wolf, whom tlie United States soldiers ami Jiexi cans well know to their sorrow, sur rounded me, and such slwiking of hands arid hugging 1 never experienced le- fre. The chief the next morning mx? me his third daughter as a bride. By our marriaea I have seven chil dren." "Where are thev now?" queried the reporter. "Oh, they're running wild on the plains," replied the Captain, laughingly. He said that in the Fall ot 1847. after numerous fights with Upited States soldiers, during which he tried to escape, (rather dubious,) the Comanche concluded to sell him and another white prisoner named Kirker. Thus, after ten years ot captivity, be was taken to Fort Bent, and was sold to Col Sumner, of khe Sixth Cavalry. Tlie Captain was rasomed for six yards of red flannel, one pound of tobacco, and a string of beads. Kirker was sold for eight yards of curtain calico and a pound of common Missouri tobacco. After be ing ransomed, the Captain sought the home or his youth ; but all bis relatives had removed, and, Iieartbroken, he retraced hi steps and made hi way into Mexico, where fie joined Placida la Vega in hi war against the Church I'arty. At tlie conclusion he made hi way to Chihuahua, and was employed by Gov. Anglestre to fight "the Attaches at tlie rate of $50 per scalp. With thirty Mexicans, during '.six months they raised ninety scalps. Becoming disgusted with tlie Mexi cans, he again cast his fortunes with Old Wolf and the Camanches. He continued fighting with them or three year against other trilies, and when the French invaded Mexico he repaired to Chihuahua and was made a lieu tenant of artillery in the Literal army by Benito Juarez, and participated in the battles of Lo Membres, Maztibilan, Zapick, Santiago, Espiantito, Siera Alger and various others, down to Queretaro, when Maximilian surren dered. At the close of the war he again visited his Indian home, and, gl owing tired of tliat sjiecies of exist ence, determined to live in the future among civilized jieople. His faith, however, in humanity has been terribly shaken since he has been in Gotham, as he lost $150 in greenbacks at a place of public amusement a few evenings since, ami he has charged his mind considerably. He speaks fluently the dialects of seven different triln's Custiliau and half Montezuma the language of Northern and Xew-Mexi-co and Souora. lie is probably the only whiti man that can aid the historian in translating them. Xew Style of Vaccination. The Xovember numlier of Ifnrjr's Mi'jaziue gives the details of an im proved method of vaccination, which, in view ofthe ravages of "small-jiox in Philadelphia and other cities, may iH'rhap deserve the attention of our medical practitioners. The new plan was first practiced by a Mr. Ellis, an English physician. Ordinary vaccina tion is jieriormed by scraping off the epidermis and thrusting tlie vaccine virus into a puncture made by the lancet. A greatly improved method, however, consist in raising a blister by a drop or eantharides applied to the skin. This is fo lie pricked and the drop of fluid let out, and a fine vaccine point put in this plaiv and withdrawn after a moment ot delay ; the epidermis alls back and quite excludes tlie air. shutting out any germs that might Ik? floating in the atmosphere. This method has lieen practised by Mr. Ellis for twenty year, and out of hundred or caes of vaccination which he ha performed, he has never had an in stance of blood-poponing or absces. wiii'e by tlie ordinary method an occn rencc of seoontlary ab4is is by fuo insan uncommon, and tliat ofpy aMiiia is often observed. The compara tive safety of this method is lielieved to lie due. first, to the exclusion ofthe air, and, second, to the lecr size ol the aperture for the introduction ot misi-hief than when the puncture are made by the lamvt.
