Tunnel!-zgzgllie Iloosac/c.—A correspon-
dent of the'Springfield Republican gives the
following account of the state of operations
at the projected Hoosack tunnel :
_ “The boring machine is on the ground,
but as yet hardly resolved into its compotent
parts. A mass of cast iron spokes, cogs,
wheels, shafts, bolts, etc. etc., lay around us,
out ‘if which the workmen were slowly (for
nearly every piece required a derrick and
pulleys to get into place) reconstructing the
ponderous wonder. The carriage for opera-
ting the machine is in place, facing a per-
“pendicular side of solid rock, just off the ac-
tual line of the road, which has been prepa-
red for the first actual experiment. The
immense shaft was being hoisted into posi-
tion, and then would come the wheel and
its accompaniamcnls, and then the driving
‘power, which consists of eflglncs of 100
horse power, and for which a building was
being erected. There have been many de-
lays in getting the machine upon the ground
and in place, and we were told it would
probably be six weeks at least before every-
thing would be ready to start.

,“- Wejremember vividly and well, that in
our years of sin and shame, when we defiled
our mouth with the vile, filthy, disgusting
tlnd deadly narcotic, we were dry about ev-
ery hour, and with a devilish sort of thirst
that water would not begin toextinguish; it
took it brandy smasher, or some other equal
potent form of diluted hell-fire to quench the
tobacco drought. lt was chew and drink,
and drink and chew, alternately through the
day : and we are entirely convinced that
chewing supcrinrluced morbid thirst, and
drinking incited to chewing. So thorough
satisfied are we, that tobacco consumption
leads to ruin consumption, that were we su-
prt‘me'law giver, and resolved to bring about
10t8l abstinence from every article the use of
which could be abused to the injury or ties-
truction of the user, we should begin by pro-
hibiting the cultivation of tobacco."

One of the saddest results of the spirit rap-
pings that we have yet heard of, is recorded
in the St. Louis dispatch of the 26th ult.—
lt is a terrible one :—-
“A gentleman living, we think in Illinois,
and known to many in this city, has a family
of sons and daughters, grown up men and
women, of the highest respectability. Some
years ago, his wife (lietl,an(l be living in the
strong lamcmbrance of her love as a faithful,
good wife. has never riiarried. During her
life they were very happy; perhaps less than
the usual domestic vex-ations of married life
attended them ; not the first blush of a sus-
picion ever attached to her good name. But
this has been swept away by the magnetic
‘juggling ofa medium, who has borne evi-
dence from some departed spirit, that she, the
good wife, the revered in ln€‘l))0l'_\‘, was un-
faithful to him through her whole career, and
that the children, one and all, were illegiti-
mate.
ls nottliis truly horrible? But the worst
has not come Wholly under the influence
of a conviction that spiritual agency is a fixed
fact, the gentleman has disinhcrited his child-
ren as illegitimates, and driven them from
his heart. ‘A wife's memory ‘blasted, child-
ren’s name dishonored in their life, and made
it thing to couple with ascourge to whip their
hearts, with a happy home mnrle’de.<olate,
and a father-’s closing eve of life rendered
dreadful in its loneliness. On what cvitlencc?
On nothing.

they were buried alive or thrown to the

A Good Temparmzcc Law.——J.1mesI.,ol
England, among his other specialities was a
temperance reformer. By a law passed in
his reign, the inagistrnte was empowered to
arrest an habitual drunkard, and compel
him either to give bonds for his abstinence
in future, or remain in prison for a certain
period. This appears to us a most sensible
law: for surely no man can be more justly
deprived of his liberty than he who has‘ pro-
ved himself uoiible to withstand his temp-
tations. This excellent law has been re-
cently enforced by some country justices in
England, vtilh good effect.

The Rush to the G’-nt'(l Il’Itnes of Australia-.
—Accounts from Australia, received in Eng-
land, state that the number arriving at Port
Phillip averaged one thousand per day, and
it was feared that the authorities would be
unableto maintain order. The success ofthe
diggers continued to be good. One ship
lately sailed from London with 400 passen-
gers, bound to these mines.
Anti R.en.r Outrage-—A respectable gen-
tleman of Springfield Mass, by the name of
Walt, was deliberately 5/tot down by a gang
of Anti-Renters at Nassau, Renssalaer Coun
ty. He was on a visit to his brother in law,
William Vinning, who had recently pur-
chased a piece of ground in, that. town, of
William Van Rensseloer, the Proprietor. A
noise occurring near the house in the night,
Messrs. Wait and Vining went out to see
what was the matter, when the former was
shot. He lies in a critical and dangerous
situation. As yet no steps have been taken
by the authorities to bring the parties to jus-
tice. Such outrages are tolerated in the
Empire State! Why? Because the Anti-
Renters have votes to use.
A wag in the Norfolk Herald observes
that the Democratic “platform” is a charac-

Independence, re-afliinis the gutta percha
resolutions of ’08 and “B9, which have seen
such hard service for half a century, is :-l-
lent on the Maine liquor low and the Roch-
ester rappings, and exercises the departed
spirit of the National Bank, which, like
some dark demon, seems to haunt the bed
curtains of restless spirits.
