Mesons. .lay Oook t Co., of thin city, have
received the following letter from tho Chief En
gineer of the party ciifctafjod In exploring the
oute of the Northern Pacific Railroad:
Hbi.kna, Montana Territory, An?. 17,
Messrs. Jay Cooke & Co.: My last lettor w.n
dated August W, on the Jocko river. Wo pncil
over from Jocko rlvur to the valley of Ilcllguta
river, and along that to the town of Mimoula,
where we were inopt kindly received and enter
tained by the nccntlemun of that place. I re
member especially Mr. McCormlck, Mr.YVordcn,
Captain lliguins, and Major John Owen (the
niter, however, resides at Fort Owen, thirty
miles off, in the Hitter Root valley). M.ijor
Graham, of 4 Deer Lodgo" City.and Major Owen
accompanied ns for several days, and gave im
much useful Information. At Peer LoUe
City, or rather on our approach when ten
miles out. wo were met by all
the principal citi.cnx, who escorted us to their
nice nourinlilng little city, tho financial and sup
plying centre of a large mining district botli of
gold and silver. Under tho guidance of Mr.
Granville Stuart, Mr. Wordon, and Major Blake,
we made a very satisfactory examination of the
"Deer Lodge" valley and the ' Deer Lodge" pass
-of the main chain of the Rocky Mountains,
and theucc down Divide creek, ton miles to lt.
Junction with "Wisdom" or Rig Hole river.
This Is the most remarkable divide I have ever
seen, and, considering that It is a pass separating
the waters of the Pacific from those of the At
lantic, its characteristics are truly wonderful.
Iu truth, instead of separating, It has afforded
the means of uniting the two oceans by a con
tluuous water communication.
The miners of this region of the so-c.ille I
Rocky Mountains have stolen the waters of Di vid :
creek (which rise In tho eastern side of th
mountain), and conveyed it by a ditch to the
western side, where they employ it in their gold
washings. I examined this In the ground care
fully. The cut or ditch in the deepest part of
the summit or divide is cut down to the depth of
eighteen feet, the whole length of. the excava
tion being a little over one-fourth of a mile. It
Is through loum or clay; uot a particle of rock
is visible within two miles In any direction.
This may strike you as almost marvellous
and so, Indeed, it is that the groat backbone of
a continent, the grand chain of the Rockr
Mountains, should bo so toned down at tiiia
particular pass as to permit the flowing of a
stream across from the eastern to the western
slope. And this is not the only striking fea
ture: the approaches of this divide on both sides
are so gradual that we trotted to tho top with
perfect case in our two-horse wagon, containing
four persons and our baggage and sleeping blan
kets. The grade from "Deer Lodge" valley, pass
ing tho summit, and thence down Divide creek
to the Wisdom (or Rig Hole) river, need not
exceed fifty feet per mile, without either tunnel
or any deep cutting. Such is one of the passes
of tho Rock Mountains that I have examined,
uud from concurrent and reliable testimony
strengthened, by many personal observations
tending to confirm it, I am satlsiied that a snow
of two feet depth iu cither of the valleys, or In
the Divide, is of very rare occurrence. The
Divide is nothing more than a gentle
plain, covered with nutritious bunch grass,
and usually cattle feed on It all through
the winter, without any housing, and
get fat. Indeed, the entire region that we
have been passing through for weeks is a vast
grazing country, interspersed with excellent
arable agricultural laud, already cultivated as
farms in a number of places. We encamped In
the valley of Divide creek, within one mile of
Wisdom river. I found the river at the point
where I saw it, and made an approximate esti
mate of iUt size aud volume, to be 350 feet wide,
with a flow of about 42,000 cubic feet per
minute, which is more than one-third of the low
water flow of the Ohio at Wheeling. This river
rises more than fifty miles, and its sources uow
constitute the great mining region the Rig
Hole gold region. Before leaving the Rocky
Mountains, we have yet to examine a pass be
tween the waters of tho Gallatin river aud those
of the Yellow Stone river, which is said to be
very favorable.
Wc returned through the "Deer Lodge" di
vide, by the "Deer Lodge" valley, to the "Deer
Lodge" City, and remained over Sunday. We
then passed down tho valley to tho little Black
Foot, and up that valley to "Mullan's" Pass, of
the main chain of the Rocky Mountains, and
thence down a branch a short distance, and then
over to another branch of the "Prickly Pear," a
tributary of the Upper Missouri, and theuce to
this city, where wo arrived last evening. Wo
have been cordially met by many of the citizens
here, who of course feel a deep interest in the
early construction of the Northern Pacific
Railroad. Yv"o have also met Colonel Dc
Locy and Mr. W. W. Johnson, who spent u
number of years making surveys for mili
tary wagon-roads and railroads through this
region (whose reports I had previously
read), from whom we derived valuable informa
tion. Major Blake, who has been many years
In this country, accompanied us around from
Deer Lodge to this city. Of course, it Is uatural
that we should fall in with the men now living
here who best understand tho country. Wc are
greatly indebted to Mr. Worden and Captain
illgglns, of Missoula (and also Mr. McCormlck),
w ho accompanied us not ouly to Deer Lodge
City, but also to Wisdom river, and we obtaiued
much valuable Information of Granville Stuart;
and Major Blake went with us from Deer Lodge,
as well as from Major Graham and Judge Danc e,
of Deer Lodge City. This Mullan Pass Is of a
different shape from tho Deer Lodo Pass; it is
not so gradual on tho Pacific slope, and Is
ciultc abrupt. In Its descent on the Atlantic
elope; but I will not In this letter attempt any
discussion of routes. We havo yet to examine
the -)Cadotto Pass," designated especially by .Mr.
Edwin F. Johnson as one of the routes for the
main line. Then, after visiting Fort Benton
and the Boiciuuu Pass, already referred to, be
tweeu the Gallatin and tho Yellow Stone, we
will return homeward. I thiuk we shall have
nrcnmnlishcd a irreat deal, and that I will be
prepared to present a plain, intelligible report of
the great country explored, and that it will be
favorable in many important respects. We have
met Governor Ashley and General Washburn,
thPiiew Surveyor-General: Mr. Trumbull, United
States Senator; and Mr. Marmaduke Moore, aud
other Phlladelphlans, just arrived from a labo-
rnr mi thA Mlnsiiiirl. I SUDKOSO W0 Will
start to-morrow morulng for Fort Bcutou by

W. MlI.NOK ROItP.KTfl.
P. S. We have met General Sully, who has
recently been placed in command here, and ho
i. Invited us to ride out this evening to the

New York, Sept. I, 159.
Further developments induce tho belief that
the Ponrd of Police Commissioners knew per
fectly w ell what they were about In tho order
they lately promulgated In regard to tho
Wrnrlna of the In I form bv (he roller.
From the number of anticipated resignations
sent In, It Is probable that the Board were quite
aware that their regulations would have that
effect. An avalanche of resignations was yes
terday let fall upon the Board, after receiving,
accepting, and filing which tho Commissioners
proceeded to virtually revoko all that they had
sold by appending to the regulations the explana
tion that any member of tho force will bo re
lieved from those regulations by the Board, or
the Superintendent, or tho President of the
Board, or in the absence of the President or Su
perintendent, by any Police Commlwdoncr, in
pedal cuscs. Among the more amusing of tho
resignations handed In was one by i scrgeaut,
which read as follows:
"(icntlcmnn: Dcenifnir the. . amended rule ty
rannical nd liumtllatlnurlu'lun as an oillccr and'a
mull, and, In my opinion, Tureetly assist lug oil classes
of law-breakers, especially the proprietors of Ktn
niills, to evade and violate the laws, T, therefore,
tender my resignation as a member of tlio Metro
politan Police Force, to take effect on the 1st day of
heptember next."
j This is decidedly spicy. The reader is par
ticularly requested to notice the withering sar
casm of the reference to the proprietors of
"giu-inllls." I am afraid the writer of the resig
nation in question has been driving some neat
operations in black-mailing with reference to
the Excise law, as he evidently thiuks that the
destruction of his incognita by his being always
compelled to wear uniform will interfere with
his perquisites of a detective.
Mr. Bonner Is out In a moral card in which he
repudiates with indignation the imputation that
he ever might, could, would, or should have
used Mrs. Stowe' article on Byron for any con
sideration whatsoever. It is very amusing to
read this vehement
Outburst of Iloiiiierrnn Itmiromlie.
That the New York I.edijvr is "interesting,
moral, and instructive" wc were taught to be
lieve, through the medium of advertisements, in
our school-boy days, and, even If we had not, a
perusal of the rhvfs il'uurre of Sylvanus Cobb,
Jr., and of Mrs. Paradise Southworth would
have abundantly assured us of that far t. Be
sides, of late years, it lias been very evident that
Bonner has been trying hard t eradicate the
raw-head aud bloody-boues style of romance
from his chaste columns. Why Mr. Bonner
should bear down against Mrs. Stowe iu such
particularly strong terms I am unable to con
ceive. Has she not merely stripped the band
ages from the wound of unnatural vice and dis
played it to us in all its bleeding hldeousness?
How's that?
I hear that Mrs. Richiugs Bernard lias been
publishing In the Philadelphia newspapers
A Card
which is a very silly junction of egotism ami
lackadaisicalness. She complains that Mr.
Castle, the tenor, and Mr. Campbell, the bari
tone of the old troupe, should have forsaken her
"banner" and pone unto Parepa-Rosa's. What a
pity that Caroline should do so! I presume
Messrs. Castle and Campbell, like other people.
arc fond of getting as much as possible for their
wares, and arc willing to warble under whatever
"banner" will bring them in the greatest number
of greenbacks. Certainly thev have a riirht to
their choice, and Caroline has no right whatever
to complain. A pitiable aspect Is the very last
In which she should wish to appear beside her
fleshy rival.
The Watermelon Crop
rivals the peaches. Watermelons are arriving
here in such abundance that the speculators
scarcely know what to do with them. Twenty
Eve thousand were "dumped" here on Monday.
From Baltimore cargoes arc lauded containing
between three and four thousand. From the
Southern States single vessels bring cargoes of
between eight and niue thousand, and money is
being made on them at a rate unexampled iu
that line of business.
The Brooklyn Citizen' Iteforui Association
have been holdiug meetings with regard to the i
propriety of commencing political meetings ,
with prayer. Of course such a proposal pro
voked a good deal of spirited discussion. Some '
members thought that it would be enough to kill
off the meetings at once; some that it would
ouly waste time; the majority that it would lie
exceedingly inappropriate. On that latter
ground tho proposal was finally rejected: but
the Executive Committee were authorized to :
prepare an address to the public on the subject. !
Miss Glyn (or Mrs. Dallas, as she Is known to i
personal friends) is expected ere long in tills

although her name is scarcely known in this
country. Tho most critical and fastidious of
the London weekly press have very highly com
mended her performance of "Cleopatra" in
Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra, aud It is
In that trutredy that she expects to make her
principal hit in this country. Among the fore
most admirers of Miss Glyn is the Loudon
Saturday IltvU-w, the mod accomplished, the
most educated, and the most bitterly cynieu' of
all the Loudon weeklies. Miss Glyn Intends
making the tour of the world, commencing with
the United States and the Canadas, finishing up
the American continent with California, and de
parting theucc for Australia. Next to "Cleo
patra" the "Duchess of Malli" (introduced to us
by Mrs. Wuller) is considered h jr linot part.
She comes to us In the nick of time, just as the
bloi.de-burlesque Is played out and the metro
polis finds It can exist without I .villa Thompson.
The lirst section of the
Flevulcd Uuilway
between the Battery aud Cortland street is
completed, and the new cars have already been
placed upon the track, their lifting being wit
nessed by a crowd of upwards of live thousand
spectators The curs much resemble ihose of
the city pas.-enger railways, save that thev are
larger and more highly llnlshcd lu b.ack walnut,
it is not expected that the road will be opened
for business before December, for iilthouri tho
pillars are up as far as Thirtieth street, the vaults
for tUc engines are not yet finished. This ele
vated "railroad, this car-travelling between
heaven nnd earth, Is the nearest approximation
we have yet made to Tennyson's idea of "Nuviu
grappling lu tho central blue."
It Is said that all the somrs introduced Into

hor smile is a marvel of mugU'itic joyou ness, her form the

more for the stage, in one sense, than I.ydia Thompson.
She bus shown that in the broadest burlomiue and ex

parfeot modesty with fun, frolic, roguishress, and freedom
of action. The popular taste may be degenerate when it
