Below is an extract from the Troy N. Y.
Wing, which may be deemed aut hentic and
reliable, as to the ultimate success of this
project, at no very distant day. The repor
of the Legislative committee was based upon
their own observation and the examination
Of several of the most practical and expert
enced engineers of this country and Europe.
Massachusetts Legislative Report ON
the Tunnel Project.
In relation TO the action Of the joint spe-
eial committee OF the Legislature of Massa-
chusetts, in favor of granting the aid of the
State to the /" Hoosick Tunnel Railroad Com.
psny, the report arrives at the following con-
clusion, viz:
That the Tunnel route will make reduc-
ton of twerty- two to seventy miles in dis
lance between Troy and the city of Boston,
aud all the Northern towns Of Massachu-
setts--that it will reduce the summit eleva-
ton to $40 feet. perpendiculurly diminish the
grade from sSto 50 feet 10 the mile, obiter-
ate seven entire miles OF curves. replace a
terry thai costs $25,0 900 yearly. by a bridge,
and enable freight engine to take twenty
i've long freight cars in place of ten or four
teen--ihe usual number on the three divi.
sious of the Wrstern-thus reducing the
cost Of transportation about one half, and en-
abling Boston to participate in the Western
business, amounting to three and a half mill
lions of tons on the Hudson, and increasing
at the rate of more than half million yeal-
w. The committee are satisfied from the
evidence, that the tunnel will ventilate itself.
and the steam and smoke are proved to con-
dense against the roof and make no trouble.
As respects the cost, they consider it proved
by the testimony of Gen. Bernard, Col. Bald
win. Messrs. Swift, Whistler, Neil, E Edwards,
James Hayward and eminent English engi-
neers, that the cost OF the tunnel will range
from one o two millions, and attach but little
weight to the cost oil some English tunnels,
cited IN newspaper articles, as they were of
gigantic and unnecessary size, when rail-
road tunneing was not understood, and being
through wet clay, required very expensive
masonry.
The committee are satisfied that the tunnel
may be made in four years, either with or
without the machine, which worked to their
Satisfaction. Considering the tunnel essen
tial to the prosperity of the State, and not
seriously injurious to the Western railroad
which derives nine-tenths of its income from
the local business, ard little profit from the
through trade, which has been for some years
diminishing they recommend the passage OF
the bill.

NEW YORK, April 10.
A most horrible occurrence took place at
the Tombs about six O'Clock this morning.
One OF the keepers of the building opened a
cell, in which were incarcerated five men for
being intoxicated on Sunday. He found
three OF them dead, and the fourth in fits.
He promptly gave an alarm, and phys clan
was sent for who examined them and pro-
nounced them dead. The fourth man was
very weak and will probably die.

WROUGHT IRON CAR WHEELs.--In order
to remcv the danger of the breakage of car
wheels, and the accidents incident on such
breakage, several of the railroad comPanie s
of the East are now trying the experiment Of
using wrought iron wheels. TIE problem
TO be solved is, whether in long run, the
wrought or cast wheels are the best; wheth-
err the wsre of the one kind exceeds or not
the expense of renewing the cracked and
broken of the other. If the wrought iron
wheels are brought into use the change will
it is said, have a serious influence In the iron
business in our country, as the English
wrought wheels can be procured at third
less expense than the American.

The early history of the jurisprudence of
Michigan, if faithfully chronicled (it would
require the pen of an Irving to do it). would
furnish forth an entertainment Astounding
with the soul and point of humor. Many OF
these little legends yet float around the
scenes which have given birth to them, and
serve sometimes to give cost to a bar dinner
or to enliven bar meeting. Among them
is the following:
"Judge B-,a plain and worthy man
but no lawyer, was once Judge of Oakland,
under the old system. A cause came on for
trial before him on one occasion, in which
the action was {, unded in sort, and the plea Of
the defendant, which was special, was such
as to give him the affirmative Of the issue,
upon the Strength of which he claimed the
right to open and close the case. This point
was denied by the CONSUL for the plsintiff,
"who never, in the whole course of his prac-
tice, had heard of such an enormity as the de-
PENDANTS presuming to open the case" Au-
thorities were brought and cited however,
and the Judge, after mature CO .sideratiou,
determined that such was the de!endent's
and so pronounced his decision. After
short pause, during which the plaintiff was
grumbling at his dsaffection, the court told
the defendants lawyer to 60 on.
"Your honor" said he, rising", am not
quite ready to open the case, when get rea-
dy / uih let the other side knop!" This opened
| if' not the case, at least the eyes and mouth
o, he 'osher side,' who sprang to his feet and
beloved forth denunciation upon the stupid
ity of the Judge, whose ABSURD decision had
placed him in such dilemma. "Vou see
your honor, what you have done; you have
actually placed the case in the hands of the
defendant He took possession of our oxen,
and we brought an action to recover them, he
took possession of that Also" 81 can't help it
sir" said the lie rned Judge, with great stern
ness, 'the decision is made, and is too late to
alter it: the law must take its course. You
must ithdraw your action and sue agar"
"If he does, your honor" said the defen-
dant's CONSUL, Il shall plead the pendancy Of
this action in bar and beat him. "Then Mr..
-" said the Judge, 4 see no other way
for you but to sit down quietly and wait till
the defendant gets ready to try this cause"
The plaintiff took the Judges advice, bdt the
time appointed has never 'elapsed,' and he is
waiting yet."-Detroit Advertiser.
