THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 11, 1309. 5 X1 13 WTORgl snxs. From Our Own Correspondent. New York, Aug. 11, 1809. Tickle Your Pparhen. Now'g the day and now's the hour. Tho market Is full of them the Now York market, that Is. At the West Washington shambles they arc selllnfl; for fifty cents a basket. It Is In vaiu that sellers make desperate efforts to keep the price up. Political economy, like water, will find Its level, and tho cheapness at which peaches In New York are now selling illustrates that fact. Yesterday West Washington Market Was crowded with peach purchasers. The middle men were nowhere at all, and the producers, and not the frauds who Intercalate themselves bctweon them and tho purchaser, got far over tho worth of their produce. Tho quality of the fruit was also very fair, and, therefore, pre suming that the harvest around Philadelphia is as rich as the one here, I repeat my impressive adjuration, "Pickle your peaches. Now is the time." The fine building which is to be occupied by the Young Men's t'lirlnt Inn Aaxnclntlon Is near completion. From what I can iudj-u from a survey of tho rooms to be used as gymnasia, reading-room, lecture-rooms, parlors, class-rooms, etc., I should think they would be abundantly Impregnated with a religlmis gloom. I regret to state that the project at firnt enter tained of a Believer's Uowling-allcy and a Christian Cricket club has died out, and that the president of the association has frowned upon the idea of a smoking-room and insisted upon that apartment being converted to spiritual purposes. He will not have that temple dese crated by the fragrance of the Cigar of Sin, which, like Dead 8ea fruit, turns to ashes on the lips (especially when well smoked): no matter what brand they may be of, for him they are only brands to be plucked from the burning, and he plucketh ac cordingly. The building will be ready for occu pation iu October. There is no truth whatever in the report that a private theatre was at first intended to be Inbuilt with the institution. The officers very properly frowned upon the notion at once, even when it was proposed to call it the "Oratorio," and limit the representations to theological subjects. There has been a great deal of feverish talk about the inexpediency of making provision inside the building for such if amusements as might tempt the censure or the sneers of a cynical world. The association, lirtwavnr lina Itnnnmlinrnrl TVj.l1-ttr1 cliia ri-nn J aniotig those who are not avowedly religious: I but its lack of clear convictions of duty and of independence iu action has attached to some of its members a ridicule that is not altogether undeserved. The IrrrprPHwible l)e Vivo, who has five weaknesses, viz.: an addiction to velvet coats, a cane whose handle is a figure head strongly suggestive of Francois Kavcl, the custom of presenting to newspaper people pho tographs of himself in striking attitudes, a love ofj the "pitty guhls," and an uncontrollable tendency to shed tears at the mention of his idolized countrywoman, Ristori this gentle, genial, and joyous creature has gone to Sau Francisco to "lay pipe" previous to tho advent there of SIguor Brignoli. An obliging con temporary explains that he will bo gone only twenty days. Gratifying intelligence ! delicious life ! to breathe melodious breath of tenori and prime donne, to flutter perpetually between the sanctum and the side-scenes, and alternately supplicate puffs and disseminate passes ! what cau existence confer more charming than that? Tis said, however, that no man is a hero to his vak't-de-chambre; and I presume even Brignoli's agent sometimes discovers that his temper is not always as smooth as his voice. The C'oiiiiiiiinlpaw Cattle Ynrrts would poison us with rinderpest if they could. They try it on periodically, once in three months at the very least. Sometimes the cattle-plague makes its appearance in beasts from the West. This time it has aunounced itself in several hun dred head of cattle just arrived from Florida. Such cattle ! Pharaoh's lean kine were prize cattle compared witli them. Some of them had evidently tasted neither food or water since leaving their native shores. The Connnunipaw Cattle Yards were consequently one lame death bed, where horrors almost human in their in tensity were endured by dumb beasts. Person ally Mr. Bergh was not in attendance, but his agents were. Used as they are to scenes of animal suffering, one or two of them were well-nigh overpowered by tho ex tent and intensity of the brute misery that met their eyes. Starvation, thirst, vermin, aud fetid air had combined to do the work of death. And these are the cattle whose flesh was to be offered for sale iu the markets o this citv. and would have been so offered but for ' the prompt intervention of Mr. K. P. Black, of I New Jersey, who had received from the Legisla t rvf ii!."t Stiita a commission as Inspector of Stock. At first thc.-c seemed some disposition to dispute his authority, but the lynx-eyedness of the sanitary police of this city will probably defeat all efforts to palm oil upon the dead-meat market this gristle and bone that Florida has sent us. The beasts will either be sent back thither, or their hides will be stripped and their carcasses be delivered up to the rendering tank. What is known as the Stoop J.lne," the demarcation indicated by the projection ol the front-door stops, or -vtoops," as they are called here, is the utmost verge that the owners of booths and stalls are permitted to encroach upon the Mdewalks. Even this is illegal unless tin. Mavor cives a permit and the owner or oeeu- 4 ii. o 111111,11111' before which the stall or 4 l)tui ut ....... m booth is located does not object. Consequently ! all that Immense swarm of newspaper and fruit- S ... 1 -..i.i,. ii aiirriiuncl Citv Hall Park, the Astor House, and kindred localities, are illegal in the iutcusest degree, and only continue ou sufferance of the public and the police. Some day or oilier we shall sce.thctn all disappear, in ! company uui me lorcsi ui i'hfjc Miki; uiuVhrooms iu a storm. The projocting- sign nulsaiH-c Is urowing worse every six I mouths. F.verv haberdasher vies with his ueiirhbor in the brazen unique ness ulii-rc'with he compels attention to bis irimiUi. A clean sweep of llicin. as well as of all the sidewalk obstructions, was made only a few mouths ivio. But you might as well pour hot water over a patch of red ants: the swurm di.-aipears only to renew itself after a little. The fee charged for a projecting i-igu is only H3 50 (which goes into the public treasury If it does not go into a private pocket), and tho thing being so extremely fee-sible. the number of projecting signs is infinite, in a gale of wind they quiver like forest leaves, and supply re porters' note-books with some of their choicest "meat in the way of accidents. Between four and live thousand permits to use these project lug signs are extant at this writing; and about tweuty thousaud projections they might with more significance be termed "projectiles" are used than ourinltrf -will But if pedestriaus prefer standing the chance of iieiug knocked on the licad to lodging a com piuint, they ought by all means to bo granted THE NORTHER y PACIFIC RAILROAD.

From Our Ovm Correxpomenu Tout-land, Oregon, July 1.1, 1S.W. We have now passed over the western portion of the region along the Pacific slope which con tains undoubtedly the western terminus of the Northern Pacific Railroad; and wo are now ready to fairly start on our eastern exploration. A little opare time remains, nnd It shall be used to give your readers a fair, though hasty, sketch of this road, its prospects, and the great advan tages that will accrue on its completion. A previous letter, written from Olympia, gave a brief description of tho vast Inland seas of Washington Territory. 1 am glad to have It in my power to reiterate that so far as the magnifi cence of the waters and harbors of the Strait of Fuca and Pugct Sound have been presented to the Eastern public, there has been no exaggera tion. They are truly on a grand scale, and are a fitting point for the vast future commerce of the Pacific. From Olympia to Portland, by the valley of the Cowlitz river, a railroad of very moderate grades can be easily constructed. The country almost affords a natural road bed, and the rails would run through a valley crowded thickly with magnificent timber. No elevation tit all approaching the height of Fair mount hill is to be seen: and the soil has such natural richness that an annual yield of sixty bushels of wheat to the acre is no rash prophecy for fair farming. The Northern Pacific Uailroad is designed to stretch between Lake Superior probably at the points of Fond du Lac and Bayfield and Paget Sound, touching the latter doubtless at Seattle, on Admiralty Inlet. The tract of land traversed contains half-a-million square miles of territory, and it is emphatically the winter-wheat region of this continent. It is varied with alternating prairies and pine forests; it is rich in coal, iron, gold, silver, and copper that have not yet been fairly developed. It has timber, water-power, and stone, unlike the sterile tracts that lie more to the southward. The climate is so salubrious that consumptives from your Atlantic coast now seek it in preference to the enervating air of the South; and so mild is the temperature that I am told countless herds of cattle roam and fatten through the winter upon the natural grasses within ten miles of the summit of the Rocky Mountains, which at the north are so broken down as ta be passable by loaded ponies. The buffalo, the elk, and the antelope make it their home throughout the whole year; and in its beautiful valleys peaches, apples, pears, plums, cherries, grapes, and sweet potatoes come to perfect maturity. This district, containing Min nesota, Dakotah, Montana, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington, has every element of wealth, every condition of social growth and prosperity, in superabundance and beyond exhaustion. The feeling among the people here on the Northwest coast that the North Is entitled to a Pacific Railroad is honest, earnest, and all-engrossing. They object, with good reason, to going 700 miles south in order to get 1700 miles east; and they claim a share in tho commercial profits of the trade that is to be diverted from the Cape of Good Hope across the United States. They say that from Hadodadi, of the Japan Islands, to Puget Sound is only 4400 miles, 400 less than the direct route to Sau Francisco; to Shanghai, China, is 5710 miles, 400 miles less. From Puget's Sound to Sitka is only 770 miles, a saving of 700 miles, that in tho utilization of our new polar territory is a matter of great moment. And this route also seems to have been created as the natural line of communication between the waters of the two oceans. At the east the St. Lawrence river and the great lakes reach half way across the continent, while the Pacific here on the west stretches an arm away inward into Oregon in the Pugct Sound, leaving a dis tance of only 1775 miles between the navigable waters of the two oceans. By the Central route the distance from ocean to lake from San Fran cisco to Chicago is not less than '.2100 miles, a difference in favor of the Northern route of 050 miles. Iu fact, so many navigable streams will be in tersected by this road, that if 825 miles were constructed at various points, complete steam routes could be established and maintained from ocean to ocean. The Mississippi will be crossed at or near si. l-iouu, .Minnesota, i tie Red river of the North next will connect with the navigation of Lake Winnipeg and the Sas katchewan ard Assiniboinc rivers and their tri butaries, opening !1000 miles of navigable waters and draining 400,000 square miles of valuable territory. The Missouri river will l e reached at a point 4S5 miles distant from the head of Lake Superior, and will be followed )0 miles to tho Great Falls, near Fort Benton. A stretch of 2O0 miles will tap Flathead and Clark's rivers, and the navigable waters of the latter will be skirted for 175 miles. Thence the road will run to Lewis river, at the mouth of the Paluse. 1 10 miles, aud thence down the valleys of the Lewis and Columbia to Portland. Thus the construction of the North ern Pacific cau be worked simultaneously from four different divisions, the extremity of each resting on water lines, thus allowing the road to move on simultaneously on eight different divi sions. Fort Benton to Columbia would be the longest division, and :500 miles would be the longest distance of road, from a single point, accessible by water. In addition to the vast development of the resources of the district traversed, the enhance ment in value of the adjacent lands and the great increase of population sure to result, one ot the most important considerations to the peo ple of the whole country in this connection is the commercial an d political effects that would ensue throughout British Columbia. Several years since the inhabitants of Vancouver's Island aud British Columbia petitioned that they either might be relieved from the expense of an excessive staff of officials, and be assisted in establishing a British steam line to Panama to Increase emigration, or that they might be permitted to become a portion of the United States, with which their commercial and busi ness relations were most Intimate. Tho British Government was thereupon spurred up to make surveys for a railroad extending from Canada to the Pacific; but their official engineers reported that the construction of such a road was prac tically impossible, owing to tho rocky nature of tho country and the fearful cost of such a rail road. Captain Pallisse says, "The time has now forever gone by for effecting such an object, nnd tho unfortunate choice of an astronomical i.oinid irv lino has forever isolated tho British s SK" The inevitable corollary is that tut a short time can c lapso ere-if we use our advantages, at least-that Pacific coast will "itach Uself to tho United States.

A Like Savino Reformation. A ralical change has been introdmed in tho practice of medicine. Physiciuns have ceased to torturo and prostrate their patients. In stead of pulling down, they build up: instead of assaulting nature, they assist her. Cupping, leeching, blistering, venosoction, calomel, ant imouy, stupifying narcotics and rasping purgatives, once the favorite resources of the faculty, are now raroly resorted to evon by the most dog matio members of tbe profession. The old creed was that discuso was something which must be expelled by violent artificial means, irrespective of the wear und tear of the vital organization in the process. Tbe new creed recog nizes thetimprovement of the goneral health as essential to the cure of all local ailments. Hom e it is that Has- tetter's Stomach Bitters, the most potent vege table tonic that phurmaoy has ever brought to the assist ance of na' ure in her struggles with disease, has been cor dially approved by practitioners of the modern school. It is pleasant to reflect that reason and philosophy have at last been victorious over tho errors of the past, and that thousands, and tens of thousands, of human beings are alive and well to day, who would indubitably be moulder ing in their graves hud they been subjected to the pains und penalties which were deemed orthodox und indispen sable thirty or forty years ago. Preventive medication was scarcely thought of then: but now it is considered of paramount importunes, and the celobrity of the standard invigorant, alterative and restorative of the ago (u title which Hdhtkttkh'h Bit ters havo fuirly oarned by their long career of success!, is mainly due to its efficiency ns a protective preparation. A course of tho Bitters is urgently recommended at this season of thoycaras a safe and certain antidote to the malaria which produces intermittent remittent lovers, diurrhu'a, dysentery, and othor maladies. liEWTED, lteduced, Keduced, Reduced, Very much reduce.
