Great enterprises that would cause tbe de.
iberations of years, in Philadelphia, are
almost of daily occurrence in New York.
Railroads nro projected and aided wherever
they can be made to subserve New York
intere?ts. The Snnbury & Erie road, Lad, it
od to New York, would have been completed
years ago. The consequence is tnut iniscny
the great centre of trade as. well as of
travel. While on this subject, it may be
ns well to add that every inducement is held
out to strangers to visit New York. The
Hotel accommodations are on a magnificent
scale, and nro ably conducted. I ins Hotel,
ho St. Nicholas, bus ut present about eight
hundred guests and vet it is the most quiet
and orderly house in this country.
The Pennsylvania Legislature a few days
siuce, passed a bill to make a Railroad from
Reading to Columbia, by which it is intended
to make a nbort rut from New xork to
Washington, in connection with the new road
now making Irom Reading to Allentown.
This is a New York project, aud will be
carried out.
Tbe discovery of pearls in a small stream
near 1 allersun, N. J., 17 miles from New
York, has caused a great excitement in that
neighborhood. The Now York Herald nt
a reporter to the place, who Las given a long
and interesting account of the discovery, de
scribing a number of pearls fouud, worth
from 50 cents to $500. Some time in Feb
ruary lust, Mr. Ilower, a carpenter, with three
of his neighbors, in consequence of tbe high
price of food aud scarcity of work, went to
gather some uiusiks. They returned wiih
about two dozen, each, and according to the
story, Mrs. I lower spoiled a pearl worth 25,
000 in trying to cook it soft for breukfast.
The following colloquy ensueJ with the report
er of the Herald:
Mr. Hower I felt something bard when
opened the tnui-cle, but did uot notice it
particularly.
Airs, lluwer l put the muscles in a pot to
boil I lie 111 lor breaKlast, and tuey mutt have
been in there nearly an hour; when 1 took
them out they seemed tough, so 1 put them
iuto a pan to Iry them, but in doing so
noticed something white like a bubble ol'-uir
111 oue. 1 took it out and struck a knife
against it, saying it was hard as a stone.
Mr. Mower 1 cried out It is a pearl, It is.

worth $25,000 the largest and finest one in
the world, so jewellers tell me, but ob, it Lad
lost its color.
The poor man looked sad here, and oid it
niailu him sick for two days, but his heroic
wile now cheertd him up as she hnd formerly
done, telling him he would find another.
Next day a jeweller iu Puterson told jMr.
Hower he did r.ot know the value of the in
iured pearl, but tillered S40 for it. It bus
since been placed in the store or Hall, tilark
& Uo. Air. lluwer thinks the color is re.
turning into it, and that it may yet come bnck

The icuucipal government of this city is,
at present, 10 a great quandary. 1 bo oppo
nents of Mayor Wood had uu act passed
recently, legislating tho police department
out of office. Tho Mayor contends that the
act is unconstitutional, and bus appealed to
the supreme court, and refuses to surrender
his authority.
I he news Irom Huh is highly important.
Brigham Young, with his Dunite bund of
desperadoes, has overawed the United States
Court, threatening Judge Stiles with instant
death if lie. did not adjourn tbe court, and
promise to enforce no oilier laws, than the
I iwtof the territory, administered by Mormon
officers. Willi rtvolvers and swords pointed
at his breast, tlu-y compelled him to execute
their design. It was rumored that Urighain
Young has fled, and that the Mormons are
split up with dissensions among themselves.
Later news, however, informs us that he is
still ut Salt Lake. It is to bo hoped that
Major McCulluch, of Texas, will accept the
Governorship, liiuvo as Cicsar, aud perfectly
feurh-ss, he would make Brigham and his
confederates iu villainy, tremble ia their
boots. It will not do for Mr. Buchanan to

Some "Snake." A countryman from the
neighborhood of Halifax stated in our hearing
yesterday that he recently saw on the road
leading across Peter s mountain to Millers
burg, a black stiuke which he judged to be
about "thirty fet long and as thick round as
a mans body" Ut course, the man was con
siderubly frightened by the appearance of
such a monstrosity, and added that ne "ran
nearly a mile back to a tavern before he
stopped.'' We rather guess he had been to
that same tavern previous to bis seeing tbe
snake. However, if the story is correct, we
fear that 1.) ki n's Valley is a doomed district,
