Der Of hands employed the work proceeds
rapidly enough, but from the beginning there
have never been more than half as many men
employed as there might, and ought to have
been. Whether stronger force viii be en-
ployed in future or not remains to be seen.
AT the present rate Of progress it viii be at
least two or three years before the tunnel Of
six hundred feet is completed.

We are constantly annoyed by parties call
/ ing on US for old newspapers for patterns,
hats, for in cupboards, under carpets. and a
thousand other purposes, but very seldom for
one to read. We cannot supply everybody,
nor do we desire to do so if we could. Ev-
cry old paper that we give away, and We give
away hundreds, costs US. just so much cash,
very small SUM wheu taken one at a time, bat
I
alive have a standing -cash-fyom
a number Of sources, for every old newspaper
that we can spare, and considerable com plant
when we do not preserve them. But the
mere giriag is not so much a nuisance as be.
ing bored half dozen times day, when in
the midst Of some business which does not
admit Of trivial interruption, with Ma wants
some old papers for a pattern" This is too
much for our patience.
The ESPECIAL ATTENTION Of the public is
called to the administrators sale advertised
in to-day's IxQUIREE, by Hon. Samuel L.
Russell, Administrator Of Eliza Watson, de-
ceased, offering to the public a large number
Of building lots adjoining Bedford. This is
the first opportunity Of the kind offered to
our citizens for many years, and we pray that
all those whe desire to locate here viii avail
/ themselves Of it and procure suitable loca-
tions for residences. We hope that Mr. Rus
sell viii not sell them in blocks, bat by the
single lot, and give all an opportunity who
desire to purchase.
We are very frequently asked whether the
different Pay Departments at Washington are
paying the Additional Bounty under the Act
Of Congress approved 28th Of july 1866, to
which we are compelled to answer that they
are not. We have thousands Of dollars pend
ing in the Offices Of the Paymaster General
and Second Auditor, and have not had a
claim paid, with a single excep ton, since
February last. 1t is said that want Of funds
is the cause Of delay.
