WHOLESALE BLAsTINa.-A correspon-
dent of the Pittsield Eagle gays: 1.-The most
thrilling scene that came under my obser.
walton was in the Sierra Nevada ON the
Central Pacific. Here the road is built on
the side Of a precipice two thousand four
hundred feet above the base, and the slope
is SO steep that the Cinnamon who did the
work were let down in baskets, and in
this position drilled holes and charged
them in the side of themountains.1 At one
time there were four hundred and sixty of
these charges connected by q fuse, explo-
ded at one time. Masses Of rock weighing
many tons fell to the bottom with terrific
fury. When the debris had ceased to fall
the echoes werestill repeating among the
distant hills So stunning was the shock
that would never witness the like again.

THE HANDWRITING OF LADIEs.--Her
Majesty's Inspectors of Schools in Great
Britain have lately made printed report,
two points of which are, that women are
least satisfactory as teachers of arithmetic"
and that theexcessive prevalence ofsmall-
hand among them is grievance" ~ wish"
remarks one of the inspectors, ''that
teachers would remember that, in the
words of John Locke, every one naturally
comes by degrees to write less hand than
he at first was taught, but never bigger,
and that, therefore, he who learns at school
to form every letter well on large scale,
will fashion good small hand for himself
afterward without teaching, while he who
writes nothing but small hand at school
will never bea good or legible writer long
as he lives" Otherremarks quite aspoint-
ed were made about the angular style of
penmanship prevalent among the lady
leachers. sgleE 5rs kisrrrfal-3 I,es.7s.sj

attacked in the House of Commons by the

and there were constantly little mistakes

very ludicrous results. The dentist had a

mischief, who was always engaged in some
prank, and gave his principal much trou-
