THURSDAY MORNING, miy 25,
TUNNELLING BY FIxE.—We learn that
‘the bed rock tunnel in. which the experiment in tunneling by fire was first tried is
now worked by that process entirely, the
farnaces have been used inthe tunnel but
the wood is piled up against the face of the
rock and a fire lighted. When the fire burns
softened is taken out, generally about eigh‘eon inches or two feet. By this rude proeéhs more than two-thirds the expense of
blasting is saved. We: believe this is the
first-and only mine in the State where fire
cede the old method of removing rock. The
Scientific Press speaks highly of the use of
fire in tunneling and-after publishing our recent account of Mr. Clark's experiment, says
“a edreful series-of experiments kas been
made during the past year, under the direction of Herr Fiekeatecher, at the St. Chris—

that aeighborhood, Cuke has now been
substituted for wvod, as. more economical
and less objectionable on other self-evident
grounds. The coke is used as follows :—
A small; moveable frame, very much like a
cominen coul grate, isso constructed as to
be placed on legs or, other supports against
the face of the wall to be broken , away.—
The front of the grate should be closed so as
to drive the heat as much as possible against
the wall, and openings left at the bottom
for draught. With a closed fire-place, thus
tonstructed, about ones half bushels of coke
willburn through an entire night., In the
morning the fire-place is removed, and the
hot wall sprinkled with water to cause it to
suddenly cooling. The effect -of the fire
generally extends to the depth of about
be derivable from this process. As coke is
“not attainable as yet in the mines on the Pacific ooast, perhaps charcoal might be found
preferrable to (ood as ‘it can be more readily. handled in rrow walls of a drift than

gent such articles in this paper as do not
meet their approbation. We remark once
for all that vue paper is not the persunal orgen of Mr. Sargent, or any other man exnot and never had any pecuniary interest in
