Mrrohnntvlllr, N. .I.-VI ro It U nnri What It

From Our Own Ourrtupon lrnt,
Merchantvillk, N. .1., Juno 21 First of
all, how docs one get here ? McrvhantrUlo 1
Bltuatcd cvcn miles from Cnindcn, the thriving
city in embryo which Ih destined some day to
become a second Brooklyn, and In the courso of
its extension to practically absorb Mcrchuntvlllo
and many other villages. Tho new railroad
known as tho Camden and Burlington County
Road runs directly through the place, the station
being jut at one end of the string of houses
which arc at present embraced In the town. , To
take the ears of tills retail, the passenger crosses
the Delaware at the upper Market street ferry,
and then liuds himself at the depot
of tho company. In going the seven miles
by rail, about eleven minutes arc consumed, and
no more, so that the entire distance of this place
from the State House in Philadelphia, as mea
sured by time, is about twenty minutes! That
is certainly equal to Wei-t Philadelphia, and
better than (icriuautown. In truth, this subur
ban village Is ns accessible as the outer portions
of the great city itself, and yet Is in the heart of
a most charming country district. Moreover,
tho common high road joining it to Camden is
an excellent turnpike, and those who desire can
substitute for the eleven minutes' ride in the
oars a delightful drive, regulated by their own
ideas of horsc-tlesh.
And now, as to the place itself. To begin
with, it is built upon land fully one hundred and
fifteen feet above the level of the Delaware
river, which certainly goes far towards render
ing it a place of great attractions for persons
who are not in the enjoyment of the best of
health. Tho town is laid out In wide and regu
lar streets, In naming which the familiar nomen
clature of Philadelphia ha.i been largely drawn
upon. Each and every one of the streets is sixty
feet in width at all points, and, by a regulation
of tho place, all the houses that have been built,
or may be built hereafter, are required to stand
back from the line of the street a distance of
fifty feet, making a total distance of one hun
dred and sixty feet between the houses on tho
oj posite sides. But, even now, this grand tho-
nrli f ., rA n tl.n l.inln irnimo f?m tm'iQt f.f
omcthlng more than mere width. Each s'uIj of
the roadway, for a distance of three-fourths of
a mile, Is lined with delightlul shade trees,
making the sidewalks a long and attractive
promenade, of which the population en Hi'insa
are accustomed to avail themselves in the sum
mer evenings. A prominent feature of this
promenade is the brilliancy of the lawns and
gardens which follow in such quick succession.
There has been ample space at command in lay
ing them out, and all the appliances of nature
and art have been resorted to that they may bo
as attractive as possible. Many of them are
perfect gems in their way, and the general eltcct
upon the stranger is exceedingly favorable and
impressive. '
As to the houses already erected in the town,
there are about forty which are completed, and
these are all specimens of elegant and elaborate
suburban architecture. But not with the view
to consult comfort alone, but to attract the eye
of taste, they present, both without and within,
all the features of the modern country mansion,
with tho additional luxuries of gas and water,
which are available for every new comer.
Among tho gentlemen who have already cast
their lot in this new and thriving settlement are
the lion. Alexander G. Cattell, one of the United
States Senators from New Jersey; Elijah Cattell,
Esq., his brother, and like him a member of tho
well-known firm of A. G. Cattell & Co.; George
Crump, Esq., the acting British Consul at Phila
delphia; E. S. Hall, Esq., President of the
Seventh National Bank, D. S. Stetson, Esq., and
a number of others who are prominent in busi
ness and financial circles in the city.
New accessions to tho population are con
stantly being made, and new buildings always In
course of erection. Stono, sand, and gravel,
suitable for bulldiug purposes, are found near
the town, thus diminishing the ordinary ex
penses of building. At present a large and at
tractive building la in the courso of erection for
seminary purposes. The Rv. Thomas W. Cat
tell Is to preside over the Institution, which has
already secured tho promise of sufficient patron
age to insure its success. The best facilities for
the education of children will bo presented by
it, those who reside at a distance boarding in
the seminary building, while those who live in
the town Itself will be under the parental eye
day after day. There is a neat Methodist church
in the village, aud churches of all other denomi
nations scattered among the country towns sur
rounding. At different places in the vil
lage, whole squares have been reserved for
public parks; and at some future time,
when the plaoe has grown as it promises to,
these will add greatly to Its attractiveness.
There is also in the immediate vicinity of the
town an elegant grvo for the use of picnic par
ties, which frequently avail themselves of its
attractions. The surrounding country Is ex
ceedingly fertile and highly cultivated, present
ing a varied and beautiful aspect, which com
pletes the attractions of tho place. s

' the energy and enterprise of Senator A. G. Cat
tell aud his brother and buriness partner, who
have spared neither time nor money in their
efforts to render the village ono of the most de
lightful in tho vicinity of Philadelphia. And
they have succeeded. Ten years from now
Merchantvillo will rival all iH competitors. It
is intended to be a collection of summer resi
dences for merchants aud bu.-iness men in Phila
delphia, who are obliged to devote close atten
tion to their nffairs, and can. only by residing at
such a convenient place, secure a combination
of the comforts and conveniences of both city
and country life. It is just near enough to the
city to be "readily and rapidly accessible, and
far cuoiiKh removed to be out of its turmoil and
dust. The taxes arc remarkably low, and a new
and powerful incentive Is in this respect added
to the Inducements presented to those who are
contemplating a permanent retirement from tho
city, aud yet desire to bo w Uhiu easy reach of it.

The plans of Chief Engineer Knoass for an
Iron bridge over tho Schuylkill at South street
have been adopted. It Is proposed to construct
a Murphy truss bridge, with two draws in the
centre, 77 feet wide each. On each side of tho
draws are to be spans of 185 feet each. The cen
tre and river piles will be of iron, sunk by pneu
matic process, nnd on this principle will the
draws be worked. The length of the bridge will
be 2488 fect, and the clear height 82 feet above
high water. Proposals for its construction have
been invited, but nono as yet have been re
ceived. The R. W. Grand Master of the Grand
Lodge of Pennsylvania (Masons), Richard Vaux,
Efq., states, In his report for 1808, that "during
the past year the Masonic duty of relieving tho
distressed has been, as usual, well performed.
The Trust Fund devised by Brother Stephen
Girard has, out of Its income, dispensed i:niX)-50
for the ittfl of 128 brethren. The Grand Lodge
Charity Fund has contributed $2505 for the
relief of 145 applicants. This Is Independent of
the surtis disbursed by each subordinate lodge
to those who apply directly to these sources of
relief."
