Wooden Railways.
correspondent.of the - Montreal Gazette
gives this interesting account of a wooden
. railway now in operation at Clifton, in
Northern New York, near the Canada line,
and on` which- immense, quantities of iron
ore are transported from the Adirondack
mines :
2,-.The grading is the same as for an iron
' road, except that , stiffer grades car. be is
, cended. The ties are of the ordinary de
scription' 'but are not squared on any side,
and on the Clifton road are placed at the
usual diatance of three feet apart, except' on
the trestles, where there are three tree to
every two yards. In future, howeier, the
engineer proposes to put the three ties: to
every two yards, as he proposes running
heavier engines.
The rails are of maple, six inches by four;
but in future their shape will be altered a'
, little without increasing the quantity of
timber, making.theM three and a halfinchei ---
on top, by seven 'lnches deep, so as-to - be
better adapted to he increased weiiht-of
engines . (fourteen I tons instead of ten).
' Notches are cut in the-round ties to-such a
depth es to'keep the bottoth of the rail about
two inches from the ground after the road, is
ballasted. and the rail projects sufficiently
above the notched tieto allow the flange of
the wheel to pass, . The rails are fastened to
the ties by a couple of hard wood - wedges;
driven in opposite directions on the outside
of the rail, within the notch. This has the
effect of making the whole stmerstructitre
one solid mass, without the adtion of any
spikes or pins. _
In making . the curies, the fail,itself is,
bent to the required shape, so that there is
no angularity whatever in- the line of rails._-
The trestles are of the simplest description.
, They consist:of two upright sticks of square
timber, immediately under the rails, let into
a transverse stick, which= are braced to the
sticks of timber laid lengthwise from one
trestle to another, immediately under the
'line of rails, in each direction. i This is
further supported by a similar stick of tim
ber at each side, from the head of the trestle
to the base, in a slanting direction, the
whole of which is litinfo a squared log at
i
the base. The wooden rail is not a new n
vention, but Mr.. Hulbert;-:the engineer, has
succeeded in making `it 'available without
using a particle of iron in the whole struc-c
-tare, and has, moreover, -demonstrated that
each railways can be used forlong distanees
at a moderate cost, and this through corm- ,
try where an iron line, as ordinarily con- '
stracted, would be practically an engineer
ing impossibility. Mr. Hulbert says that he
is willing to' contract to lay - the superstrae-,
tare of a wooden railway of his own -
proved construction at the rate of one thou
sand five hundred dollars, - American cur
rency, a mile, where maple and hemlobk
can be obtained at reasonable rates. -Since
any visit I have become so convinced of the
extreme usefulness of such linei of railways
developing the resources of a new COUll
h7,and acting as feeders to, the trunk lines,
that I have no hesitation in prophesying
that_before manr_yeara we; shall find them
running in dtr.vtions' through- the Do=

- The Vltigan Colliery F , ~[pioalon
On the morning , of the 28* of NoveMber,
- About nine o'cloc k , a terrible — arplosion of
fire damp occurred in - the Arley mine-cif the
Eindleygreen collieries, about two .. and a
half miles from Leigh and- abcF ut fourteen
from Manchester. At the time ofthe accident
.
upwardsof thre e hundred men were in the
pit. The mine is about three hundred
yards deep, and is worked with an up and
dOWn shaft: %The- niderground manager
4t , as 'at theWiE•rks -at thelime of the explo
`slon
_which occurred'inst a ft er the men had
breakfasted. In.- the immediate vicinity of
- the-:eiplosion itself the whole of the men,
and" boys were killed or seriously injared.
.-There was at oncea rush of those unin
,Jtted to
.;" - the pit-eyes, and large numbers
were - rescued, suffering only from fright.
The injured, about twenty in number, were
Tircolight away and at once attended to. The
~.:task of removing the bodies of the killed
was necessarily a very 'slow and painftt:
one, as the workings took fire. By;_pro
o'clock in the afternoon thirty-eight bodies
..,i;i.fere brought to the surface, and a larke
7 , ` number, variously estimated at from forty to
eighty, were missing. - The origin of.,the
accident is unknown, as the ventilation
was said to be excellent. It is suppdsed
that some workman must have removed
the top from his lamp and that a sudden
rush of gas caused the explosion. The at,'
mosphere was very heavy at the time. The
bodies were in many cases . fearfully
ured, rendering identification very diftlaUlt.
It is remarkable that all the men igh iF
out were yqung men, the eldest' not' being
apparently over thirty years of-age.
A portion of the wcaltingi - were on fire l
rendering it difficult to get at the whole - ef
the bodies. The number of those left in
the pit this afternoon was unknown. Forty
seven persons, it is thought, were killed and
ten others severely burned by the explosion.
At six a'clock in the afternoon the firemen
made an inspection and reported:that all was
safe. Both of the firemen were killedi" The
workings extend east and west.-- On the
east side one hundred'and fifty men worked
and on the west sixty or seventy. All on
the east aide escaped; nearly all on the west
were killed. Several escaped with burns.
A few penetrated the ihoke damp and one
was restored by artificial respiration; bat
fifty-six were suffocated and one has died
from his burns. The extremity of thework
ings was not reached until:-six hours after
the explosion. Fifty-four bodies now lie in
the.workings near the Ipit. The Govern
inspector has been ddown the pit since noon.

_ . A Man Killed by Bears.
, The bayton (Oliki) Journal of Monday
says:
Captain Worst, of the canal boat-Senti
nal, No. 2, met with 'a tragic fate one day
last week. Captain W. started from the
Junction for a deer hunt, to be absent only
a portion the day. He did not return the
same evening; and not getting in the next
- forenoon,his mea• thought that something
was wrong, and started in quest of him.
About the middle of the afternoon they
found his dead body. He had evidently had
a combat with bears, and he had been over.
powered and most terribly torn by their
fangs. His gun lay a kw feet from his;
and the.barrel was bent out of shape, and
the stock had bean hammered into frag.
ntente, which plainly indicated thatthe eon.
filet had been terrific. -A few rods distant
away, a large buck was "swung up" against
a tree, arid a portion of it had been devoured
by bears./.—the tracks indicating the kind of
animal which had made the attack on him:
It is the most terrible death in the woods
that we have heard of for a number of
years. The Captain hid evidently bad a
very bard fight—the grounds being beaten
with the tracks of the combatants for several
rods around—and he had died game. The
probability is that Captain Worst came upon
the ears after they had begun to feast on
hick, and in attempting to despatch the
ferocious brutes Ahey turned - on Mtn, and
proving more than a match. for him,! he .!
lost his life in a manner so fearful that it
makes one shudder to contemplate the affray.

The Theory of Getting' Drunk.
Most of thatclass of persons who indulge
in tippling are filly acquainted` with the - 1
practice of getting boozy, but are ,unac
-1 quainted with the theory of how it is 'done.
1 1 4 their benefit, as well as those who have
neierindulgedin the practice, we give the
folrowing theory from the North British
Review:
"At the biginning of - a carouse of a
drunkard; alcohol stimulates the action - of
the heart, which now sends blood rapidly
to the Itings for aeration. A large supply,
gt
of blood disks conaequentiy reach the brain,-
which 'is ' stimulated into activity. The
ideas f the drinker7-now flow rapidly—at_
first coherently, but without control; the
brain matter wastiatoo rapidly, !and delft.-
urn ensues.— Dminglhis time the volatile
alcohol-is - Iliffusiiik itself through the sys
tem, converting arterial inte-yenotis blood,
and 'biding that fluid with a spirit which
has a tendency to prev e nt change in the
tissues, so that the drun k ar d becomes stu
pid, falls off his chair in the stupor "of
sleep, or if too far gone, dies of venous
apoplexy."

A Wholesale Poisoner.
The Geneva papers sumounce a trial
which is destined to create a great sensation
in Switzerland. The accused, a nurse,
named Seanneret, is charged with poison
ing not fewer than nine different persons,
whom she had , within the space of six
months lieen engaged to attend. The sub
stances used were belladonna and antra
phine, an extract of the same. - and to obtain
them she simulated a partial ' blindness for
which they are employed as a remedy. ' The
woman appears to have had a monomania
of crime, as she neither robbed her victims
nor derived any benefit from their death;
she is even said to have nursed them with
great tenderness. She was at length detect
_nd by a French painter named B—,Whose
wife she had attended. Madame at
.
ter showing symptoms of poisolung, recov
ered, when the accused, <inding that 'die
was suspected, absconded. She was, how'
ever, subsequently' traced and arrested: 7 lz
unexpectedly that she had no time' to con
ceal the poison that
-she had in her posses
sion, and all of which .are in the hands of
justice.
Health of Napoleon.. '
•
The apprehensions entertained as to the,
health of the Emperor Napoleon seem to be
well founded. "Not only," says a cones:
pondent, "did he not mount on horsebac
and follow the hounds at the grand hunt the
other day at Champeigne , but contrary to
his murk practice, he acceptcd assistance
while getting into and alighting from his
estrriage.y At the shooting party one could
see that lite walked with great difficulty and
seeming Tamenessointgeng hie legs, which
wore epread rather wide apart, after him as
it:Were, Mid with his arms held out to ste ady
nrovementet. On the evening of the
dune a - Asir-was placed for him on the bal-
COrty . of the chateau, on which he continued
seated until the conclusion of the affair; al
thotigh-the'Empress and Princess of Wales
were-both standing. At the performance
at the theatre too, a night or two afterwards,
he sat with his head bent forward on his
chest the whole time, seemingly perfectly
inattentive to everything that was going on.
IT is reported that the Erie Railroad
Company has leased the Atlantic and Great
Western Railroad for a term of • twelve
years upon condition of the Erie Company
paying thirty per cent. of the gross earn
ings, or a minimum of $BOO,OOO yearly in
the event of the thirty per cent. of the earn
ings falling below that amount. The Erie
Company engages to keep the track, sta
tions and rolling stock of that road in re.
pair, and gives to that Company the option
of renewing the lease at its expiration. The
arrangement will give the Atlantic and
Great Western Company an amount more
than sufficient to cover the interest_ on its
bonds due under the recent , arrangements
with the bondholders.
THE LAST male descendant of Gustavus
Vasa, M. de Stierneld, died on'the 14th ult.,
at Stockholm. He was born in 1791, and
entered the diplomatic service in 1811. In

Crown-mince,
was appointed ,ehims d'

1838 he obtained the portfolio of Minister:43
Foreign Affairs at Stockholm. He held.tliis

when anew ministry was appointed by : Oscar. He finally withdrew from
