States, are reserved to the States, resi- eciiveIv

what could more fully and securely guard the
independent sovereignty of the States, with re-
gard to what fairly concerns their Internal DO
lice, or secure the persons and property OF those
residing in, and yielding obedience to the laws
OF any State, than what is above cited from the
Constitution. Yet the Fugitive Slave Law an
pears to have over ridden and trodden under
foot all ibase sauary guards of the rights of the
State in their sovereignty and the individual
rights of the people. Moreover, il has enacted
heavy penalties against any of us, who should
obey the express command of Scripture in feed
ing the hungry and clothing the naked or who
should refuse to leave our ordinary avocations
and aid in the odious and cruel business of fore
ing men women and children out of freedom
into slavery.
Thus far, these observations do not DENY that
the clause in the Constitution about persons es-
Gaping from service may mean slaves. That it
does or can mean slaves, by any construction
consistent with the authorities herein cited,
cannot admit. My position upon this point has
so often been presented before the public, by SO
many able writers and in SO many able speeches,
it may seem unnecessary TO notice il here Yet
it may not be wholly useless to notice it now in
connection with the authorities and rules herein
cited.
The clause referred to is as follows to wit:

State, under the laws thereof, escaping into an.
other, shall, in consequence of any law or regu-
lation therein, be discharged from such service
or labcS, but shall be delivered up, on claim Of

correctly informed, have contracted their
data to the period when the heading was
entered, viz; in August, 1850, and extern
ded the progress to5 or 500 feet IN each
twelve months This, fortunately, is also
erroneous:-@hen the heading was tirst
opened, there remained long cut SO feet
deep, to be formed through the same hard
rock, before we could reach the entrance
of the Tunnel proper; and it will readily
be understood that the headings which Is
the opening first made at the top OF the
vault, has hardly anything to do with the
final time of completion; indeed if it were
carried through before reaching the floor
of the Tunnel, it would hardly be any adj
vance as to the final completion-it is the
removal of the bottom which actually con-
stitutes the perforation. This began, as
said before, very nearly on the LIST OF
February and by the return of the same
date, we shall have completed One Thou
sand feet and there is no reason to sup
pose that we shall vary much from it
hereafter. From this account it will APP
pear that little over three years will ad-
NIT the cars through; for, l hope, we
shall have but very little arching to do,
which can be completed long before the
excavation:
|. 1t may not be irrelevant to mention, in
this place, another mistake which has
been made by several persons in regard
to the character of the excayation-they
rejoiced at the report that clay had been
encountered. Now, far from being an
advantage, such an occurrence would have
been drawback on the work, both in
point of expense and time. The enlarge
ment of the excavation to admit, LIST, the
size of the arch; I'd, the timbering outside
would have increased the cost of excava-
ton then, the expense Of timbering, a
very difficult operation; and, after all, the
construction af an arch nearly mile long
and the tight packing over it, would GER
tainly have been a source of increased
cost and delay whereas, now, the next
day after the perforation is completed, the
laying of the track can begin, and in a
week thereafter, the iron horse may snort
through the opening.
Indeed, we experience fully, the diff
culties Just mentioned, in the secondary
tunnels, which are very dangerous, owing
to the softness of the material through
which they penetrate, and which have to
be heavily timbered: had they been
through the same rock as the main one,
they would now be completed, whereas,
it will yet take considerable time to car
ny them thro' They will, however, be
finished in due season for the other hea-
Wy work of the line, East of the main Tun-
nel-sometime next fall.
In conclusion will add, that we are
not materially troubled by water, and have
had, as yet, no occasion for ventilating.
The rock is now solid on both sides, and
will stand well without arching; in conse-
quence of which, the size of'the perfora-
ton has been reduced to its legitimate di-
mansions, 16 feet in width, by 21 in
height.
This is about all think of, at present.
that may be ofany interest to you.

fish to-day, from that intelligent and ac-
complished Engineer, Col. CRozET, will
command attention, and be received with
pleasure by the friends of the great Cen
trail Improvement. The letter puts to rest
many doubts and silly stories that have
been circulated with regard to the Tunnel,
and furnishes much valuable information.

But, know that you had, formerly, fire.

be deceived by the many rumors which
were circulated and even found their way
into the papers. Thus, we heard, at one
time, of a mighty stream bursting into
our subterranean vault at another, of the
work having penetrated into clay later
still, we had got into limestone, and more
recently was informed by the Boston
and Baltimore papers and also by the Rail
road Journal, that | had stopped the work
in consequence of the unmanageable hard :
ness of the rock None of these accounts
had ever shadow of reality The rock
has been, all along, pretty much the same,
hard and seamy at the Western end, and
harder still and compact at the Eastern,
requiring drills to be re set for every inch
