FROM tiEW YORK TO SAN
FRANCISCo.
Correspondence or tlio Now Y. , rk Times.
SAN FRANCISCO. Muil6l, Dec. b, irg
. .
TheSo who have tried the overland
route, report it a jolly way to meet
adventures, butdraih on women and
children. We took the old fashioned
route. Left New York,on Saturday,
Nov. 5, by the some
tileVen 'hundred souls on hoard. In
the Lower Bay we ran close along
the opposition steamer. Cheers
were exchanged, the ships took dif
ferent channels to get round Sandy
Hook, and .soon after lost sight of
each other 'for the voyage. Before
dinner on Sunday each paSsengerpre
sented himself' befbre _Purser, and
exchanged his ticket for oneon which
was designated his. seat at the table.
The order of the eating is, fir'St, the
second-cabin paeSengers, the'
children and nurses, then the first
cabin passengers. All those eat in
the same dining-room, but the first
and second tables Are hurried up, and
served at a speed that would endan
ger digestion on shore:. The last ta
ble takes it as quietly, and is as well
furnished, supplied arid attended as a . t
almost any first•class hotol. When
second-cabin passengers are told, be
fbre starting, that they get just as
good tare as those in the first cabin,
there is a slight mistake made. Still
it is good enough, sufficiently varied,
and, tar a man of long-reaching arms
and sharp-witted, abundant. Modest
women don't succeed as well, until
they have been educated into it.
A groat many very worthy people
discovered, after they got on bUard,
that the sleepingarrangenierith
second cabin very essentially differed
from those of the first In the latter
nothing was left to be sensibly desir
ed. In the former it is terrifically
hot as you approach the tropics, bad
ly Ventilated, almost of necessity, and
rather dark. The steerage consume
their salt beef, boiled potatoes, hard
hread and coffee, standing, and :after
the first night or two, mitigate, the in
conveniences of their sieeiiing a`rrange-
ments bytransfeiglitie . their blankeis
to the lidiricane deck. ' Thu fare they
pay for their three weeks' board and
lodging gives to the company, after
the railroad charges and San Francis
co taxes have been paid, about eight
dollars, for which it is hardly fair to
look for princely bedding or Alder
manic dinners.
The sea-sickness that passengers
dread so much in advance is a good
deal of humbug. Fortunately fortis,
the Baltic took a storm crossing the
Gulf stream on the first Monday out.
That day the tables were deserted;
the cry below was perpetually forgru

however, if he has ladies and children

orders a collection on board, and saves
the necessity of taking any risks at

and a half dimes" to carry your car

then start out to seo the town. It is
the oddest mixture yet of Yan hoe en
terprise, \Vest India shrewdness and
Isthmus shiftlessness. The trades.
people, who make such a bustle with
their wares, their bottles of claret,
their "ladies' delight," alias paint leaf
fans, are mostly Jamaica negroes,
sharp far a bargain, witty, and full of
merriment. They gabble in an un
known
,tongue together, but many of
theta talk English like a book. The
natives lazily look on and worry no
body to trade with them. Theyoung
children toddle about stark naked or
go dressed up only in a hat. The
women are cleanly in appearance, but
even less clothed about the bust than
a belle at a ball at home. The roofs
of the shanties, the dead trees in the
marshes, the patches about the doors
where the offal is thrown, are dark
with turkey buzzards, which show no
more alarm
_at the crowd of strait
gem than Nyotild so many poUltry.—
As the hour for the departure of the
trains approaches, the main street is
all alive with passengers, and the
clangor of the fruit sellers makes al
most a bedlam. Three separate trains
take out, the passengers, and no die
tinetion is made of steerage or cabin.
The greatest rush is to the first train,
but they who, wait till the last one
find ample - room and abundant accom
modation. The ears are light and
airy, built to admit every breath of
air„ and only to shut out the sun and
rain. •
