Across the ocean far,

From Baltimore to Elmira.
ELMITtA, N. Y., May 31, '63
MR. EDITORS: Feeling a little inclin
ed to change position, and also to breathe
a little Northern air, we concluded to
pay a visit to this pretty little Yankee
city, for a few days. After duly pack
ing portewanteau, and arranging all
ili:v.essary preliminaries for the trip,--
we left the City of Monuments by way
of the Northern Central Railway, ou the
9.45 train, under the able guidance and
pleasant conductorship of Captain Gould.
who is as popular with t' e officers of the
road as be is gentlemanly and polite to
the community. The Northern Central
road ranks as one of the finest, and safest
arteries of travel in the country. This
is due much to the very able manner in
which it is conducted. and I may mention
the names Gould and Newberry in the
van of that excellent corps ;
these gen
tlemen have charge of the Elmira Ex
press. Maj. Augheunaugh and Capt.
Harry Boyer has charge of thefast line.
lam happy to chronicle the fact, that
with its new double track and staunch
rolling stock, the Northern Central Rail
way is certainly one of the safest modes
of travel Northward.
An amusing incident occurred on the
trip from Baltimore to this city, viz
on presenting our ticket, for a berth, to
Col. MeCambridge of sleeping car, No.
25,we were politely requested to bide our
time, as a lady had solicited his attention
for a few moments. We, of course, kept
quiet, and at the request of our friend
"Dennis" took a back seat for a while.
Here.me_could see and _ hear to our _ en
tire - satisfaction, all that passed between
the Colonel and the lady. The lady in
question, it appears, was one of those
unfortunates of an uncertain number of
years, and her sole'companion was a lit:
tie pet dorg, which site carried for com
pany's sake, it is presumed ; this dorg
she wished to have go with ier in the
sleeping apartments, but contrary to the
rules of the Road, the Conductor per-em
torily refused, when the heroine - seizing
her purp by the neck, threw it upon the
seat in front of her,and exclaimed, "con
found your rules !my dorg shall sleep
with me in spite of your protestations.
' Leo. Hudson was never known to be
parted front her Jimmy, especially at
night." Dennis McCaanbridge should
be promoted by all means, by the com
pany Take notice Messrs. Childs,
Woodruff & Co., and he wise. Your
road will become an institution under
his superintendence.
On arriving at Williamsport, we, (I
mean, of course myself and friend) were
treated to the not-unwelcome sound of
"twenty minutes for breakfast !" but
whether the call was for us to znastigate
the minutes or the breakfast, we were a
little puzzled to know. However, we
sallied forth and was soon found in the
Herdic House, conducted by George
Hoppin, Esq. This hotel I learned was
built by a company of enterprising gen
tlemen of Williamsport, not so much as
to their pecuniary benefit as to the ac
commodation of the traveling public—
"lon,-, may they wave"—and keep as
good fare as we bad the pleasure of sit
ting down to, on this our first pleasure
trip to said place. This public house is
situated in the centre of a beautiful
lawn, and has capacity for the accommo
dation of over three hundred guests.—
The accommodations are excellent and
Nery attractive. It has over one hun
dred and eighty rooms, handsomely fur
nished, a spacious dining room, office,
bar room, Billiard Tables, Baths and
Dressing Rooms. The entir balding is
heated by steam, and augurs prosperity
for the proprietor. It is certainly a very
cool and pleasant retreat fbr the Summer
season. After taking a few hasty Dotes
of the above named place, and receiving
the kindness of its inmates a lathe Euro
pean order, we was forced by the cry of
"Elmira, all aboard," &c.,to bid adieu
to all, as well as the corpulent door keep
er, and again embarked for this city.
Oa leaving the Herdic House, we
were greeted with "passengers for
Elmi
ra to the left, Erie to the right, &c." but
not exactly understanding this "Erie to
the right," we ventured to enquire, and
I must own, was very satisfactorily an
swered by the individual queried, who
heartily enjoyed a laugh over our "assum
ed greenness." However, we soon
found ourselves under the care of J. W.
Mills, whose pleasant and portly figure
portrays confidence personified. Mr.
Mills, has charge of the trains from
Williamsport to Canandaigua, via., N. Y.
To those traveling upon this road, I
would advise them to embark on the 7.45
trains, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Satur
dars. Be sure and see that you take
the 7.45 A. M. Trains. No one will be
other than pleased by the affable char-

acteristics of the conductor in question,
in pointing out all places of interest and
attraction along the route. I could trav
el always, and never grow weary in such
pleasant compaay, and yet the officer
never forgets his duty to the company,
under which he performs his arduous
task.
Soon we arrived at 'Elmira, and bid
ding adieu to our congenial friends, who
had favored us with a chat on the road,
we sauntered carelessly, but interestedly
Omagh the city. Without exception,
Elmira seems one of the dullest places
in the country, and I assure you, reader,
I was not sorry when I entered the cars
to return from wl'ence I came. It was
our delight to again hear the cheering
voice of our friend the condu3tor, and
after a pleasant and agreeable ride, soon.
arrived at Williamsport, on our return.
Here we again disembarked,and were set
down to as fine a supper as ever mortal
man need crave. After eating our fill,.
and settling for same, very willingly, we.
again took the sleeping car for Baltimore,
this time under the superintendence of
Mr. Theodore Young, arriving safely in
the city of Monuments. I shall, per
haps have the pleasure of another trip
over these routes, when I will go pre—
pared to give a more interesting account.
HENRY J. HOWARD.
Ms. Lincoln's 'Entrance into Wash
ington.
While in Washington City. early in
December. 1864. the writer called on the
President, with Isaac N. Arnold member
of Congress from Chicago, one of Mr.
Lincoln's most trusted personal friends.
We sound him alone in the room wherein
the Cabinet meetings are held (in the
White House,)whose windows overlooked
the Potomac and the Washington monu
ment. At the request of the writer, the
President related the circumstances of
his clandestine journey between Philadel
phia and Washington. The narrative is
here given substantially in his own words
as follows :
"I arrived at Philadelphia on the 21st.
I agreed to stop over night, and on the
following morning hoist the flag over
Independence Hall. In the evening
there was a great crowd where I received
my friends at the Continental Hotel. Mr.
Judd. a warm personal friend from Chi
cago, sent for me to come to his room.—
I went and found there Mr. Pinkerton,
a skillful police detective, also from Chi
cago, who had been employed for some
days in Baltimore,watchin.g for suspicious
persons there. Pinkerton informed_me , ,
that a plan had been laid for my assassin: -
ation, the exact time when I expected to
go through Baltimore being publicly
known. He was well informed as to the
pian,but did not know that the conspira
tors would have pluck enough to execute
it. He urged me to go right through
with him to Washington that night. I
didn't like that. I had made engage
ments to visit Harrisburg and to go from
there to Baltimore, and I resolved to do
so. I could not believe that there was a
plot to murder me. I made arrange
ments, however, with Mr. Judd for my
return to Philadelphia the next night, if
I should be convinced that there was
danger in going through Baltimore. I
told him that if I should meet at Harris
burg,as I had at other places,a delegation
to go with me to the next place (then
Baltimore.) I should feel safe and go on.
"When I was making my way back to
my room through crowds of people, I met
Frederick Seward. We went together
to my room, when he told me that ho
had been sen t,at the instance of his father
awl General Scott, to inform me that
their detectives in Baltimore had dis
covered a plot there to assassinate me.—
They knew nothing of Pinkerton's move
ments. I now believed such a plot to be
in existence.
"The next morning I raised the flag
over Independence Hall, and then went
to Harrisburg with Mr. Sumner, Major
(now General) Hunter, Mr. Judd, Mr.
Lamon and others. There I met the
Legislature and the people, dined, and
waited until the time appointed for me to
leave In the meantime, Mr. Judd had
so secured the telegraph that no commu
nication could pass to Baltimore and give
the conspirators knowledge of a change
of time in my plans.
"In New York some friend had given
nie a new beaver hat in a box, and in it
had placed a soft wool hat. I had never
worn one of the latter in my life. I had
this box in my room. Having informed
a very few friends of the secret of my
new movements, and the cause, I put on
an old overcoat I had with me, and put-'
ting the soft hat in my pocket, I walked
out of the house at a back door, bare
headed, without exciting any special cu
riosity. Then I put on the soft hat :and
joined my friends without being recog
nized by strangers, for I was not the
same man. Sumner and Hunter wished.
to accompany me. I said no; you are
known, and your presence might betray
me. I will only take- Leon (now mar
shal of this district),whom nobody knew,
and Mr. Judd, Sumner and Hunter felt
hurt.
"We went back to Philadelphia, and
found a message there from Pinkerton
(who had returned to Baltimore,) that
the conspirators had held their final meet
ino• that evening, and it was doubtful
whether they had the nerve to attempt
the execution of their purpose. I went
on, however, as the arrangement had
been made, in a special train. We were
a long time in the station at Baltimore.
I heard the people talking around, but
no one particularly observed me. At an
early hour on Saturday morning,at about
the time I was expected to leave Harris
burg, I arrived in Washington."
