The No,d publishes letter from st. Petersburg
dated the 18th inst, which gives the first detailed
account yet published Of the recent misunderstood
ing at Pekin between the French Charge dAffaires
NJ de Rochechouart, and Chinese Prince. The
news comes by land direct from Pekin and bears
date OF the 10th of April According to this state
ment, NJ de Rochechouart was at the races, and his
equipage came into collision with that of parsonage
known as the Ninth Prince OF the Celestial Empire.
Some confusion arose. and the Prince drove his
horse among the escort of the French Minister, at
the same time striking out right and left with his
whip. For some time no redress could be obtained.
M. de ROchechouart then applied to General Wan
gall the Russian Minister as the senior member of
the diplomatic CORPS and owing to his Intervention
the whole of the Chinese Ministers officially waited
upon the French Charge d'Aiaires and expressed
their regret at what had occurred and thus the mat

The Hoosac Tunnel.

Work on the central shaft over the HOOsac Tun-
nel where the fatal accident happened two years
ago, is now progressing at the rate of foot day.
IL has now penetrated 605 feet. New air-drills
being up whichwill expedite the work. SO that it
is expected the whole depth 1000 feet, will be
waited by March next At the eastern end of the tun
pressed air-drils. The heading at this end
is mile and over two hundred feet
from the entrance. Gangs of miners
are constantly at work the headings, while Others
are carrying out the enlargement, one hundred and
nifty feet of which is made. Three hundred and
sXtysiX feet has been taken from the heading since
the 1st Of April. Last week the rock was penetrated
foryone feet this week it will probably amount to
ten fee more. AT each blast that is made on the
enlargement twenty cubic yards of rock are dis
placed. At this rate Of progression the tunnel can
be completed in three years.

THE HEBREW FAIR.-Egery one
will remember, We trust, that the
Hebrew Fair and Festival will begin
at the National Hall tomorrow night.
As we have stated before. it is design
Cd to make this the grandest affair
that has occurred for long while,
and nothing has been left undone that
could be thought of toward the ac-
complishment OF the desired end.
The ladies are laboring diligently,
and we feel satisfied that all will en-
dcavor to make the occasion an inter
esting one Oa last Saturday We pub
lished a partial list Of the articles, and
among others mentioned a Grover &
Baker hand sewing machine. Our
information in this regard was incor-
rect, as the Grover & Baker Sewing
Machine Company DO not make any
such machines. Il is diminutive
affair, and IS of no particular use as a
sewing machine, but as many persons
might suppose there was such a thing
as Grover & Baker hand machine,
it is only proper to state that such is
rot The case, as we were misinformed
and the mistake was made unwittingly.
Let all make arrangements to attend
the Festival this week.
