LITTLE THINGS,

One step and then another,
And the longest walk is ended:
One stitch and then another,
And the largest rent is mended;
oue brick and then another,
And the highest wall is made;
One 1ake upon another,
And the deepest SNOW is laid.
So the little coral workers,
BY their slow Lut constant motion,
Have built up these pretty islands
IN the distant, dark blue ocean:
And the nobiest undertakings
Mans wisdom hath conceived,
By oft-repeatcd effort g..
Have been patiently achieved.
A littIe-tis little word,
But much may in it dwell;
Then let warning voice lie heard.
And learn the lesson we'll;
The way to ruin thus begins.
Down, like like easy stairs;
If conscience suffers little sins.
Soon larger ones it bears.
A little theft, small deceit.
Too often leads to more;
'Tis hard at first, but tempts the feet.
As through an open door: ..
Just as the bro8dest rivers run,
From small and distant springs,
The greatest crimes that men have done
La,e grown from little things.

PRoPosED TUNNEL BETWEEN SCOTLAND
AND IRELASD.-For many years there
have been projects more or less before
the public for uniting Scotland and Ire
land by means of o tunnel; and the
scheme has recently been again put for
ward, this time. however, with some rea-
sonable probability Of its being carried
out. A single line tunnel, fifteen feet
wide at the base, twenty feet wide at the
maximum, and twenty-one feet high, the
side walls of which would vary from four
to seven feet in thickness, is estimated
by the present projectors to cost nearly
S23, 0o0, 600. with the approaches. The
length Of the tunnel would be about
twelve miles, and it would extend from a
point on the north shore of Ireland, near
Belfast, under the Irish sea, to the eI-
tremity of the peninsula opposite, IN
Scotland.

THE NEW YORK PRESS ON THE
CUBAN QUESTION.

A New York dispatch of the 9Th con-
tains interesting extracts showing the
tone OF the leading New York papers on
the Cuban question, viz:
The dangerous policy adopted by the
authorities at Washington in the Virgin
Jus case has produced its natural results.
Our forebearance is mistaken for weak
ness, or peshaps for cowardice, by yio-
lent men who only understand the logic
of brute force. The milk-and-water pol
icy OF Secretary Fish has compromised
the dignity of the nation, without even
securing the ignominious peace he
sought to thrust upon US. We are no ad-
vocate OF war, but we want no hollow
peace. The honor and interest of the
nation are precious. Had the President
consulted his own common sense and
patriotic instincts, we should have been
saved this ignominy of seeing our over
lures for compromise rejected with dis
dain.-[ Herald.
The only question which ever existed
in regard to this matter was, whether
these people had discretion enough tc
know how far they would be allowed to
60. They have been so long possessed
of irresponsible power that they have
entirely lost sense of their necessary ODE
dience. They have hitherto had nothing
to do except to indicate their wishes t
the Home Government at Madrid, and
they have found them promptly com
piled with. The Captains-General have
been as a general thing willing servant:
of Casino Tribune.
The request of the Madrid Govern
ment to turn the Nirginius over to a neu
trail government could not be assented Il
for our position is that the Spanish au
thorities had no right to seize the vesse
and practically try, condemn her forth
with on the high seas. The United State
Government will undoubtedly stand firm
1t has made just and reasonable de
mand, and will not withdraw from it,
Times.
The news from Havana indicates tina
after all we may have to do some fightin
on the shores of Cuba. If this prove +
be the case, the American people will no
be unwilling.-L Sun.
1t is not probable that the mutinou
excitement in Havana which makes tn
position OF Jovellar and other SPANS
civil officers so uncomfortable, will lea
to serious results. Since the beginnin
of this unpleasant affair, the Governmer
of the United States and that of Spai
have manifested so constant desire &c
an amicable settlement, that We do nc
believe the hardihood of the people i
Havana can plunge the two countrie
into hostilities. Since Spain has foun
it necessary to ask for modification
the terms Of the protocol, SO much Il
worse for Spain. Matters look serio,
for the Spanish Republic, but the diff
Guilty is not beyond the reach of wi
diplomacy.

SOME days ago we were informed that
light had shone through the Hoosac
Tunnel. 1t has been long time sub
ject Of comment and discussion. Forty
eight years ago, the proposition to tun-
mel through the mountain for canal,
was proposed, the contract let, and great
calculations made. But it amounted to
little or nothing, until it was determined
to cut hole through the mountain for
railroad tracks. The progress has been
slow, but the tunnel will probably be
completed within six or eight months,
and the trains be diving into and through
the mountain for more than twenty-five
thousand feet. There will be two shafts,
one of over thousand feet and the other
of over three hundred feet. The road
way will be twenty-four feet wide, height
to roof twenty.six feet. 1t will have cost
Massachusetts more than twelve millions
of dollars. 1t is only inferior in length
to the Mont Gents Tunnel, which is
seven miles; the Hoosac being four and
three-quarters miles. 1t will doubtless
create great diversion of railroad tracks
and transportation Of freight and passen-
gers, and add much to the business Of
Boston, Alta California.
