THE GREAT RAILROAD RACE FROM NEW TORII =I Mr. Albert D. Richardson, in a letter from Chicago to the New York Tribune, gives a very Interesting account of the three great lines of railroad running from New York to Chicago. and thence to the Pacific coast.— We make the following extracts from his letter : Three great railroad lines from Chicago point toward New York—the Michigan Central, via Detroit and Canada, the Michi gan Southern, via Cleveland, and the Fort Wayne, [Pennsylvania Central] via Pitts burg. All make about the same through fare ($2O), but each has its special friends. who invariably travel upon it, and believe it immeasurably superior to all the rest in comfort, agreeableness, and safety. • • • In going East, the Pennsylvania line makes on an of average nearly 31 miles an hour, and accomplishes the entire journey in 29f hours. This is the most remarkable running ever done in America; for the heavy grades and sharp curves over the Al leghanies cannot be passed at a higher speed than 26 miles an hour, even by dividing trains and using the most powerful locomo • lives. - The delay has to be made up on the Fort Wayne, which is almost an air-line and has no considerable grades. I came West by this route. I nould detect only one differ coca between riding upon the fast train and an ordinary express. In setting up all ma chinery, from the hugest steam engine to the tiniest watch, care is taken to have no pivot fitting exactly in its bearings, but to losssre a little freedom both for the "end shake" and the "side-shake." Upon this train the "side shake" is very lively. At times the car rocks like a cradle, and the motion is not gliding, bat galloping. Where the track is crooked it produces nearly as much sea sickness as a rolling ship. At great speed, even upon a straight line, an inequality in a rail of half an inch in a hundred feet may make the car-wheel bound like a ball. uOO The swaying motion is greater upon this than upon the Northern lines, for the gunge of the Fort Wayne Is an inch and a hair wider than that of the Pennsylvania; and cars which hug the track closely as far as Pittsburg, have a liberal "side shake" for he rest of the way to Chicago. On the Western division the train runs 95 miles an hour, including all stoppages. Passengers aver that the wheels do not touch the rails more than about once in a hundred feet,and one man who lives beside the track declares that he has only been able to catch a glimpse of the passing train twice within a week, though he has watched for it every-after noon. The Michigan Central, one of the best of American roads In character, equip ment, and management, does not lag in the race more than once. When receiving the train late from the Great Western it has made up almost an hour and a half upon this fast time-table in 254 miles. It illus trates admirably the gain which well-con ducted lines have made during the last dozen years in comfort and security for pas sengers. Upon through trains it runs the Pullman cars, which are simply Incompar able. Its first-class day coaches are built with unusual care and strength. The com pany boast that though they have carried ten millions of passengers in these coaches within fourteen years, they have never drawn a drop of blood from any person in side pf one of them. People who kept out side have been hurt, as passengers ought to be if they will stand on the platforms. Last month, when the new , time-table went into effect, H. E. Sargent, the Super intendent, sent out circulars enjoining the utmost vigilance and . care upon all em ployees, and he went out on the first train, watch in band. The responsibility for a hundred-or a thousand lives is an oppressive weight upon any man, be he general, steam boat pilot, or railway engineer. &lay engineer had been specially instructed to avoid excitement, to keep lila train well in band, and'under no circumstances to pass any point ahead of Mire. But one, in his nervousness, forgot how to handle his brakes, ran by a dining-station—where he abottld have stoppedlixtr minutes ahead 4 tine, tore one cylinder off hie etighwupos the corner of freight - train which was Just getting upon a slding;:ied nunnery entailed a great digester. Be 'was a 'careful man, who had been eleven years 'in the se :Ll of the road, and had netter even the paint of his loconiotive beaver but hp was discharged on the spot. The two greatest improvementawe have made in the inky of safety are patent *lino . sad pet taut brakes, which ars both In use spots the Sichigetti Central, and ought ha.

Ivo sim .719d/ort"• :,esuggi -pull fi ord takes off the brakes, and permits lb ruin to back or goon. With the: "Crean er" the brakemen must be summoned t• their posts to unlock the wheels again. Bat so-great is the momentum of an ordl nary train of five passenger coaches run thing 45 miles an hour that even with pat eta brakes It cannot be stopped in less tha. 1500 feet. In comfort our great gains are aleeping and dtning cars, perfect ventila tion which .keeps out all dust, and a dram spring which, in summer, makes the drool fly open automatically for the , passenger l• go out, and stay open behind him, and ii winter (the spring being reversed) open fo. the passenger to come in, and close bebint. him. West of Buffalo and Pittsburg none of the lines are double tracked. Making tin fast time is a much more difficult feat that A was in 1857, for the trains then ran only two passenger coaches, while they now run four or nye. On all the lines many people lush for the fast train because it is fast, but Ice following seems to be a fair statement of its points as compared with the on' which consumes 88 hours in the journey Imm New York to Chicago: Comfort, ma terially less. Corning by it spoils two days, or brings one here at the disagreeable hour of midnight. Passage by the slower train occupies one day and two nights; bat the traveler makes his toilet on the sleeping-car on the second morning and arrives ready fur breakfast and a good day's work.— Dangor, but very slightly increased. At some points the train runs 50 miles an hour ; but, even that is not uncommon upon an ordinary express for short distances.— Much of the gain in time is through di minishing the number and length of stop pages. Besides, whenever an unusually quick train Is put upon any road the em ployees are correspondingly alert and vigi lant for it. During the eight months of fast running 12 years ago there was no serious accident upon either of the routes. De struction of track and machinery fully doubled. Any rate above twenty or twen ty-five miles an hour brings an increase hi wear and tear four- fold greater than the in crease in speed. A heavy train running 60 miles an hour racks and strains its rolling stock incredibly, and at every curve and in equality strikes the rails likes cannon hall. It is safe to conclude that we shall not im prove much upon this time-table until one road-beds are a great deal more perfect, and wagon crossings on the level of the track abolished.altogether. But ifthis rate of speed were extended through to San Franscio we should go from ocean to ocean in four days and a quarter. That will be ac complished when the same competition which now shoots us across the Alleghenies shall whirl us over the Rocky Mountains and the Sierras. Already we are making a good beginning. The Pacific Railroad Companies will place upon their line early in October a lightning train composed ex elusively of Pullman's sleeping, hotel and dining cars, to run once a week, in con nection with the fast trains from New York to Chicago. It will carry passengers across the continent in five days—a gain of 48 hours upon the present 'time-table. The fare will be either $25 or $5O extra, it is not yet determined which, to cover the ad ditional expense of taut running, and of drawing heavy dining cars over the mono tams. The passenger can breakfast in New York on Tuesday and in San Francisco on the following Sunday. "In these days," says Thackeray, "we no_ longer travel, we only arrive." A. D. R. .1 eye to eye RERRIAN WIFE MARKET Almost as soon as a girl is born, in the better ranks of society, her parents begin to prepare the dowry she must have when she goes to her husband. For this is indispen sable in the eyes of any Russian young gentleman who proposes to be married. She must furnish everything for an outfit in life even to a dozeh new shirts for the corn ing husband. I have beard of a lady of rank and wealth who had prepared a costly dowry of silks, linen, jewels, plate, etc., for her beloved daughter, who died as she came to be twenty years old. The mother resolved to endow six girls witlrthese riches, and ado ally advertised for them. A host of appli cants came, and she selected six. None of them had lovers. But now that they had a respectable dowry secured, each girl was speedily engaged, and paid the rich lady by promising to pray for the repose of her daughter's soul. In no country is this arrangement of terms carried on with more caution and complete ness than in Russia. The young man goes to the house of his proposed bride, and counts over the dresses, and examines the furniture, and sees to the whole with his own eyes, before he commits himself to the Irrevocable bargain. In high life such things are conducted with more apparent. delicacy, but the facts are ascertained with accuracy, the business being in the bands to a broker or a notary. The treys/maw is ex posed in public before the wedding day. At Whitsunday there is a curious custom, which is gradually giving way with the ad vance of civilization. The yt ung people ol a neighberhood come together, and the girls stand in a row, like so many statutes, draped indeed, and not only draped, but drtssed in their best, and painted, too ; for the yonug ladies, and the older ones also, of this country, use cosmetics freely, and a box of lady's paints is a very common plena for a young man to make the girl be likes. Behind the row of girls are their mothers the young men having made known tbeie choice, and the terms , are settled between the parents of the parties. The ladies in Runde are very anxious to marry, becatiselbey halm no liberty before marriage. They ire - kept constantly under the maternal eye" until 'they are given tip to the husband, and then, they take their own course, - which Is a round of gayety and dia. sipation only, re mated b i their means of indulgence.

The Ecumenical Council of the Roman Catholic Church, which Pope Pius IX ha* •rdered to be Leld in the city of Route op the 19th day of December next, has created ;rest interest in the religious world, an. his la, we think, an opportune time to giv. brief account of the General Councilr which have been held since the days of the tit..aties. the work , Ecumenical is definei lo mean general or universal From the beginning there have been held councils in the church to settle disputes in egard to doctrines and discipilne. The.% have been of two kinds—local &cal general. One of the earliest was that recorded In Acts xv. of the Apostles, Elders and Bretb • en, in regard to the circumciskm of certain converts outside of the Jewish Church. I. Council of Nice, A. D. 326, to declare against the teachings of Arius touching tit. creation of Christ, and which Council set tled the divinity of Christ. 2. The Council of Constantinople In 381, called to settle the doctrine of the personal ity of the Holy Spirit against the contrary doctrine of Macedonia. 3. The Council of Ephesus in 431, called to declare against the doctrine of Nestorian, a Syrian and Bishop, who claimed that the divine nature_united with the human, so as to have in effect two personalities. 4. The Council of Chalcedon, in 451, called to decide against Eutyches, who, op posing Nestorius, had gone to the other ex treme, and taught that whilst Christ was of or from two natures he did not exist In two natures, but In one. This doctrine was termed the Monophyrite, and is the same as that which has lately been promulgated in Germany as a new doctrine. 5. The Council of Constantinople, in 553, called to condemn the doctrine of Often, and to rescind, In effect, some doctrines which previous Councils had affirmed. G. The council of Constantinople, in 680, called against the Monothelites. 7. Commit of Constantinople in Truths or Quinsexum, called to determine matters o discipline and not of doctrine. 8. The Council of Trent which vas held from 1595 to 1568, called to meet the diffi • cultiee of the Reformation and to bring pub Ilc sentiment to bear against the church.— This was the last General Council called,as the council of a tew years ago to settle the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception was a local and not a general council. Maus hiem erroneously predicted that, the Coon cil of Trout was the last. Ecumenical Coun cil that. would ever be held ; but the Pope tots recently issued an invitation, in fact, au order to all the Bisoops and Arch-Bishops throughout the world to attend a grand General Council, to be held at the city of Rome, on the ninth day of December next. Every other ecclesiastical officer in the church is also invited to be present, with certain privileges, not, however including the right to vote. The Protestant Church is also invited, and the language of the in. citation seemed to be honest and sincere, but an explanation of the Pope, in reply to a letter from Dr. Cumming, of London, re vealed the fact that the invitation only con templated that the Protestant Church should renounce their errors, with the assurance that the Church of Rome was ready to wet come them back to the true fold from which they had wandered, but that they could not receive on terms of equality those who had rejected the doctrine that the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven were committed to Peter, and through his successors to the present head of the Romish Church. Tau Oca Day IN SKTL•q. —Tbe one day In seven is the day of rest. And the goes tion arises—what is rest? If only sleep or Inactivity, that want Is already provided for. Nearly a third of our time is thus spent more than a third with most people is spent in sleep and refreshment; The seventh day la in addition to all this, and its obsery • twee is probably the oldest custom in the world. The Hebrews in their early history are referred to as men who already recog nized the Sabbath or rest of the seventh day. Its observance is enjoined upon them as the continuation of an old institution, not the commencement of a new.' The day of rest is intended for the relief of our powers in their activity. In a word, it is repose by the change of mental occupa- tion, not the cessation of all employment. The Christian, and the good man of every faith, finds•rest by release from the daily cares of the working day world, and the turning of the mind and thoughts in a dß ferentErection from the daily routine. The person ho is Interest/xi in the religious and be evolent employments proper to the l i, first day of the week, may be as much oc. copied and engaged on that day as on any other, and still rise refreshed upon the second day, feeling that he has enjoyed an interval of repose. The repose of Sunday is an escape from the monotony of our daily lives, and in the consciousness that it is nut only a privilege but a duty on that oay to dismiss all busi ness and all mercenary care for the morrow. He who understands the day, and duly values ii, rises above the sordid condidons and requirements of labor: He is a prince for one day. He is indeed better than a prince. He is a man relieved by the mer ciful goalness of the Creator from the sent ence, "By the sweat of thy !row shalt thou eat bread." The,. etuulay • rest is the richest reward of labor, the beet and most certain wages of Industry to those who ap predate the privilege and know how to improve it. The rest of Sunday is the comfort of pope.

On the fourth story, which was simply a large unfinished loft, dwelt he janitor and his family, named Jessup. The janitor took possession of his apart meats only a few weeks ago, and being a quiet, industrious man, had made no. ac quaintances in the neighbertood. He was a carpenter, about forty-five years of age, and an Irishman by nativity. His wife was about thirty-IWe years of age, the son six, and the daughter twelve. Bock are all the facts regarding them that could be gathered. The fire was Ant discovered, evidently through the sense of smell, by the janitor, wbo, with his wife and children were at supper. The jaeitor west down stabs to investigate, and found the situation of the fire, and then went into the street, hailed a policeman whe was passing Op the opposite aide, informed him that the building was - 9n fire, and requested him to .raise as alarm. Meantime the wife became frightened% and ran down to the sidewalk, leaving the child ren alone up stairs. Here the janitor met her. Hemmed her there was no danger, and sent her hack up stairs. But the fire gained headway very rapidly, the janitor himself became alarmed, and started up s stairs to get his family. This is the last that was seen 'of any of them alive. The alarm was given in the street very promptly. A private watchman reported the fact that a family wee living in the building. This announcement inspired the gallant firemen to the utmost, and every exertion was Rut forth to rescue the help less victims, but in vain. The fire was not subdued until the second story bad burned out. Then the firemen penetrated to the upper floor, and found As family dead. The father was lying under the scuttle stairs, and tho mother, with her arms about her two children, all lying on their laces, but a few feet away. Their clothing was partially burned off, ttbd the akin somewhat scorched and Much blackened. It was evi dent that they had all died by suffocation. The fire had done but little damage In the room, merely burning a few, holes through the floor. Their bedstead, the supper table with the hall-eaten evening meal on it, and the other scant furniture of the humble apartment, were uninjured. The father had evidentlylntended escap ing through the scuttle, locked. In his efforts to force it open he was overcome by the smoke and fell.
