'gTho work at tho Hoosac Tunnel is done
by commoc drills, and the progress is about
twenty feet por week. AT tho eastern end,
eighty men arc employed in three parties,
laboring alternately, SO that the work goes
on day and night without interruption. -
The entire progress at the eastern end is
about one thousand feet; at tho westerp,uot
more than two or three hundred. Hore, al
so, at present, tho working force is not more
than sixty men, Part Of tho workmen drill
out the heading, so,called, being two hund-
red feet or moro in advance; another portion
coming after, drill out the remainder of the
bore, Of the size and shape ultimately 10 be
carried through. A wooden railway is laid
within, by which the chips, are carried out
on a car by mule power. With these chips,
dumped, it is contemplated to build sub
stantial dam across the Deorfeld River, ere
ating water power of great value, just out
side the mouth Of the tunnel. A second
mule is employed in pumping into the bore
supply of fresh air for the uso of the
workmen. a
The quantity Of water dropping from the
roof is by no moars so profuso as ono might
anticipate. Only gentle stream flows out
beside the track. The visitor needs umbrcl-
Ia and India rubbers, but is not seriously
annoyed by tho water. The ubiquitous
IIibernians, are Of course, the principal la
borers; and their shanties, babies aud pigs
make the adjacency of tho mountain suffi-
ciently lively. A person standing near the
entrance Of the tunnel hears the roverbera-
ton of blast precisely like the solemn
roar Of the thunder"
"a lately died in Boston from the effects Of the
growing in Of a toe nail"
| Did he9 We regret to hear it. We regret
still more to hear that any one has lived to
a mature age without learning how to pre-
vent the "growing in of toe NALL" by
which we presume is meant that frequent
occurrence of the corner of the nail growing
into the everything flesh, in consequence of
wearing shoes or boots too tight. We have
known cases Of excruciatng suffering arising
from this cause; and only last week we
rode down town in company with surgeon
on his way to operate on toe that had be-
come infamed from tho corner of the nail
growing into the flesh. Now TO prevent
this difficulty: Do not cut away the offend
ing corner Of the nail, as is usually done,
very short, but cut notch in the center,
quite down 10 the quick, and keep that
notch there until tho difficulty is cured, which
will sometimes be with the first cutting
The philosophy Of the remedy is that the
cut breaks the arch, and naturally changes
the curvature of the, nail and makes the
corners turn up instead of down.-N Y.
