TUNNEL UNDER THE THAMES.

The aperture shish has occurred at these workeis.

the siets)nikof the opening was inspected by the engineer
and his assistants, and the previous expectations were
completely realized. The sticks which hate been 113
through the bags of clay have assisted in cementing thew
into one dense body ; and as the volume of water shove
them increases towards high tide, the pressure necessarily
strengthens that dens ity,and makes the earth more secure.
in order to ascertain that the aperture had been stopped.
the pumps of the steam engine have been increased in
power, and &Icier feet of water below the level of t!,e

put the pitaspsinto full operation for a few days, that the
adhesive quality of the clay may not be interrupted in its

taken work under price. This occasioned the work to
be destroyed by some persons from Wymondham. A
few witnesses came to Norwich to give evidence of the
illegal prociiiliinge, and, although gearda, the mob
attempted to altack them. and a most serious riot en-

for the present, have escaped. The crowd was still as-
