I must do Captain De Grodt the Jimtlco to Fay that no sooner was the bronze banquet over on Wednes day, and the lemonade and pound-cake all eaten, than lie ran down to the reading-room of the Astor House, Improvised the form of a very neat note of Invitation, had a certain number of quantities printed, and Immediately had thorn distributed among the leading men of the various newspaper Offices. The note politely states thatUie arrange ments at the bronze banquet having been a disap pointment to him, he begs leave to express his re gret, and to request the pleasure of the reader's company to a dinner to bo given by him on Tuesday evening, November 10, at the Astor House. I think 1 see the rosy and obsequious smile that overspreads 'tiej.eountenance of every newspaper man whom one of tlu-se Invitations reaches, 'up tain De Groot's peace Is made with the press. Ho may be suffered to breathe again. ' . t Central PrU. All sorts of good things are being perpetrated at t n'.ral Park, Among these arc the establishment of chairs f r nvallds. This, I believe, Is an old Taunton that has ling been out of nso aud has just come la again. These comfortable chairs are distributed by the half-dozen near one of the principal gates, and ct n bo hired by the hour at a moderate price. Another new fashiouls the harnessing of trained goats for the delectation of -the Juveniles, and the hiring or UioiuoutforBoinueli an pour. This has only been in operation for a rew days, but Is found to work extremely well. All the healthy, handsom ) children wl.o visit the Piirk, and who can raise tu nccesfary stamps, may bo seen ocvupylng tlie ele gant little carrlnges used in these ontflts. and whip ping the goats along, utterly regan11es of tho solemn individuals who are taking their severe "oonstltu HonaU" along the gravelled pnthwaj-s. A tiger's cave is alxo in processor building, and a great effort Is being lui de to furnish a good stock for the Zoologi cal Museum. Contributions have hitherto oomo In rather slowly, but there is soiim prospeet of the tiiu m urn's this jcar presenting a vei f creditable appear ance. illr. Stewart') t'emetery. it is well known that Mr. A. T. Stewart, In view of his advanced arte and the religious habits which his plan lor carrying on business lias brought him Into, has for some months had his mind llxcd upon thoughts of the tomb. It is to this end, perhaps, that Ue has lately purchased sixty-four acres of land on the South Hemps teud Turnpike, about ono mile southeast of Hempstead, of which he proposes to i make a cemetery. It is suspected by thoso who ' know him best that he means to run this cemetery in connection with his up-town store, and that lie will bnr.r cheaper than thay could possibly get It done obewhere all his old clerks who have hot yet been pensioned oil', and who consequently die In the har ness. Kather a good idea, is It not ? lie likewise propores to beautify and adorn the grounds, so that they may excel any cemetery on Long Island. ' A Thief a Pollccmaii. ' A man who is discovered to have been a notorious thief has just resigned his postiion as a putroliuau. ' Jlis name Is Matthias M. Conker, and he and his bro ther bear as brilliant a reputation in the Eighth ward of this city ss noddy the Blacksmith does in the Seventh. These discoveries that aro being made among pollco quarters are not calculated ' to increase the coniiduuce of the public In the good faith and discretion of the Commissioners. It is not pleasant to run the risk of being clubbed when . you are on your most peaceable behavior; still less so when the clubbist is an old criminal whoso proper place Is la the station-house tu which he is dragging you. Fl-k's Brnsa Rand. Mr. James Fh-k, Jr., has already completed ar rangemeuts by which a brass band the famous one which plays exclusively for, and is owned by the ' King ef the Belgians is to give a short series of concerts in this country. The concerts will probably be given afternoon and evening in the summer, auii win not cover more than n few weeks altogether. They will take place in the Grand Opera House, and ere to be given under the leadership of a Mr. Bender. The English Opora, at cheap prices, commences here on Monday night. Aia Baba. The New Cenlrnl I own. Koilron.il. To the people or the Atlantic slope the great West is still almost a terra incognita. We hear almost fabulous stories of the unparalleled mineral and ariicultural wealth of J the Immense tract of country oomprisi d in what Is called the Mississippi valley, but the general Ideas about the actual development of thlB magnitlccnt region aro extremely vague. Iowa, for example, has an urea greater than that Of Pennsylvania or New York. More than 35,000,' 00 acres Ho within her bouudarlca. ller popu lation has grown from l92,iH)i in lsro to 1,100,000 in 1869. Her production of wheat, corn, and oats has Increased from 11,000,000 bushels In l&0 to 87,000,000 In 1807. And yet but oue-nlnth or her area (4,317,81 , acres out of a total of 85,223,800) has boon put under cultivation This has not been for any natural lack In capacity, for Iowa has so little timber and a so uniformly undulating surraco that it is estimated that not one acre in ten is waste land. The soil is a , rich, deep mould, of a fertility unsurpassed In the world. What shall stimulate further populat ion anil an even more rapid increase of production than has ' already distinguished the Hawkeye State? The an swer is found in the history of every Western State where the bulk of the population Is agricultural, and farming has attained a grandeur unknown to farmers f New Euclaud or tho Middle Hutcs. Give to the rolling prairies of Iowa, as yet nntilled, ready access by competing routes to rival markets, and itsflfty-llve thousand squaro miles will feed half the world. Five cast and wcBt lines, in construction or completed, carry her freights to Chicago ; there is not a north and south Hue In the State to give the producer aud the consumer tho benefit or a com peting market. The ant is about to be supplied by the buildiug of the "Central Uailroad of Iowa," from the southern to the northorn boundary, two hundred and forty miles in length, passing through a tier of counties which have a population of more than 200,000, and which are among the richest In nit that rich State, and forming, In connection with the North Missouri road from St. J.ouis, and tho Mil , waukee and St. Paul lrom the latter city (both com pleted and in successful operation), a through line between those two large und growing commercial Western centres, about l&O miles shorter than any existing railroad line. This enterprise is in the hands ef capitalists who aie convinced of its Importance, and who will spare no effort to push it to a speedy und successful con clusion. From a mere pecuniary point of view It is considered as absolutely certain that tho road will be a great success from the beginning, while Its im po.tauce as mi aid in tho development of the great .Northwest cau scarcely be oven stlmated.
