INFORMATION received on Monday,
confirms the report Of an arrangement
being completed to finish the great tun-
mel commenced years ago, through the
hills north of Cincinnati, for a railroad
entrance. A. j. Holder, President Of
the old company, arrived at Cincinnati
on Monday and reports arrangements
completed with eastern capitalists for
the immediate commencement OF the
work. Among these are said to be
John c. Fremont and Gen. Moulton, Of
New York. About two-fifths Of the
work of the tunnel was done at the sus-
pension Of operations, and it is estima-
ted that $50, 1000 will remove all the OBJ
structions that have accumulated since
that time. Knowing ones say that in
addition to accommodating the Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroad, the object IS
to provide an entrance to the city for
Cincinnati and Mackinaw railroad, the
completion Of which to Cincinnati is be-
lieyed to be not far off.

The New Departure.

The New York Evening EEpress says ;
"The Hon. jeremiah S. Black has been
quoted as opposed 10 the ninth resoIu-
ton in the Pennsylvania Democratic
platform. This is not true. He was
in Harrisburg during the sitting of the
convention, being engaged in the Su-
preme Court, then in session, and gave
his opinion in writing, expressing in the
boldest terms the binding obligation
of the several amendments to the Con.
stitution. Some very Stralght-laced
people complain OF the new departure
upon the ground that it is a concession
to Rsdicalism. Not at all. 1t Is SIM
ply a concession to state Of facts
which Democrats nor Republicans can
alter. The simple question is, are the
amendments to the Constitution bind
ing? Before they were adopted they
were opposed, and now that they are
practically as immovable as the Rocky
Mountains, Democrats admit the record.
Just as they supported the Constitution
with slavery recognized in part of the
States, they obey it now that it is ex-
cluded from all the States"

Second Payment on the SANTANA
Lease.

The report that arrangements have
been perfected in New York to make a
second payment upon the unratlhed
lease Of SANTANA turns out to he true.
The necessary sum is to be paid in in
stalments, and those furnishing the
money do SO upon the strongest repre-
sensations that Congress will be induced
to appropriate enough to make the loan
good. That portion Of the report which
attributes the raising Of the sum to
Fabens is true only in part. The agency
most active and influential in the mat
ter was of such character as to give
evidence of the President entire aPpro-
val Of the efforts to raise the money.
The first instalment of this payment
was forwarded to Baez last week, and
the second is to be ready this week.
The understanding of those who raised
the money is that Baez can pay his
soldiers enough to insure him in posi-
ton for sometime, even if our ships are
withdrawn.

IT Is stated by those who have exam
ined the files of the city newspapers
that Mr.. Columbus Delano has been
present in Washington since he was
appointed Commissioner of Internal
Revenue and Secretary Of the Interior
only one day in five of the whole time.
Since entering the Cabinet, he has been
absent more than half Of the time. And
vet he has cooliy drawn his salary for
every hour, as il on actual duty, and,
like the President, put it out at round
rates OF interest besides. His Christian
principles have not induced him ever to
devote the large sum OF the people 5
money thus appropriated to any object
OF charity. Mr.. Cameron, Mr.. DelanO,
General Porter, OF the Presidents house
hold, and other members OF the Ring,
have been engaged in a railroad specu-
lation in Georgia, with Bullock, Blob
gett j. Co., which serves TO explain the
Secretary's absence. Meanwhile, the
great business OF the Interior Depart
ment is sadly in arrears, and in a state
of great confusion.

MYSTERIOUS FIRE.
Raging Underneath the City OF Shelf
field, England.

On the oath ult., a most remarkable
fire was discovered raging underneath
property of considerable value almost in
the center OF the city OF Sheffield, Eng
land. For some time previous an i'm
mense boiler, thirty feet long, at large
manufacturing establishment, had been
observed to be gradually sinking, but
not to- such an extent as to warrant
careful investigation. The cause OF the
subsistence was, however, discovered in
n most singular manner. The engineer
in charge of it, raked his fires as usual
in the evening. but on examining the
boilers some time afterward he found, to
his astonishment,t that the withdrawal OF
the burning fuel had not had the usual
result. The boiler was full OF steam.
The result of an immediate examina-
ton was that LAYER of shale IN con-
nection with seam Of coal, extending
beneath the works and passing lmme-
diately below the boiler was found to be
on fire. A number of men were at
once set to work to remove the burning
material, but it was found that the fire
was not confined to that particular spot.
There was every reason to believe that
it extended considerable way on each
side, and to subdue it excavations Of a
yery extensive character not only below
the boiler, but underneath, or near the
foundations OF the mandatory would
have to be commenced. The origin OF
the fire was q mystery. and thought to
have been raging for a long period, pos,
siby for years. The mandatory, at
which some four hundred men were
EMPLOYED, was brought to stand-st'll'
