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

sign nulsaiH-c Is urowing worse every six

his ueiirhbor in the brazen unique

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

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. Nemo.

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.
