EktrIACTS FROM A.LWTTER.
FORT EnswonTu, Kansas, Nov. 9
THE CENTRAL DIVISION.
"Then you are the gentlemen who ate going
to knock Brigham I oung's kingdom higher
than a kite I"
So said an intelligent stranger, who, having
descended for a short , relief from the overland
stage at Honneck's, and attracted by our tire,
had, quietly joined us.
"flow so 7" was our query.
"When your Pacific Hallway is finished the
sinners will travel through Utah at such a rate
that it will be 'all up, with the saints. By the
way, you have'nt heard Brigham's last sermon
I suppose I Here it is ; I'll read it to you."
Saying this he read a very funny and very
highly-salted discourse, which some wicked
Gentile .had reported and printed—perhaps the
editor of the, Viiiette knows where. It tamed a
hearty laugh, but in my mind it gave rise to re
flection. Truly the great road wilt destroy the
realm of Mormon without aid from legislation
by letting in light upon its ignorant fanatics.
Of the Central Pacific railway, I learn from
the Rocky Mountain News and Pittsburg Coni•
mercial that thirty million dollars have been
subscribed to its stock in Europe, and that the
latest, surveys have demonstrated that a. nearly
straight railroad can be laid between Denver
and Salt Lake City. The present road, used
by the United States maihcoaches, is not only
two hundred and nine miles longer than that
which will be traversed by the railroad, but is
also more exposed, to dangers of travel,, involv
ing the passage of the two snowy Sierrai, the
Rocky mountains and the Wasatch.
The direct road from. Denver to Salt Lake
City pursues the diameter of the circle (of which
the above road is the circumference), having a
course due east and west. The through die.
tanco is 403 miles. This road, starting from
Deliver, ascends Clear creek to Empire City;
it crosses the Snowy Sierra at Berthoud's pass
and desce ids immediately into the Middle Park.
The whok. distance from the Snowy Sierra to
the Sierra Wasatch is across the valley of the
great Colorado, descending the bank of White
river to Green, and then ascending the bank of
Wintah river to the Wasatch. This road then
traverses a continued succession of parks and
valleys, free froM any considerable altitudes,
other than the two Sierras. It pursues a river
border continuously, through a country depress
ed among mountains, covered and protected
within them, fertile in soil and genial in temper
ature through the year.
Some have assumed that it would only be nec
essary to follow the Indian .trails or wagon
routes in making this road ; but "it is now de.
mOnstratetl,beyond controversy,thist the straight
route through- the centre of the United States'
possessions is the one that. should be hastened
through first." •
The greatest activity, enterprise, and energy
are being displayed on this, as on the otbei
routes. People most fortunately have ie., bee,.
ahltped to wait to the end to qee the substantial
results of the immense capital and labor em
barked.
The eastern division, from Leavenworth to
Fort Riley, so fat as completed, is unable t(
supp!y the demand for freight and passage. A.
these roads grow, towns and ranches spring ui
by their side, and the whole State or Territory
is awakened to intense enterprise and hopeful
uess. Every man who lives anywhere on th(
proposed Pacific route, from St. Louis - to Sail
Francisco, is inspired by it to fresh labor, mid
them are few who do not believe that it will
make their fortunes. No words can adequate
ly . represent the eixtraordivary activity and ex•
eitement now prevailing. The only parallel
which I have ever seen. to it was in the nil re
gions and in "oil,circles," two years or eighteen
months ago, from Pennsylvania to Tennessee.—
The hitter, was, however, in a great measure
mere feverish speculation, while the former is a
legitimate and industrial developement,' based
upon sound labor, a stupendous enterprise, and
The richest, the most certain and the most inex
haustible resources of nature.
THE WESTERN DIVISION
The Californians, who are, perhaps, the most
enterprising and "driving" of Americans, de
clare that their section, from San Francisco to
Salt Lake, must, can, will, and shall be finish
ed, if their is any virtue in gold, gunpowder, or
nitro-gl y cerine, in two years and a 'halt "from
date." Tree, the rocks in their way are some
thing stupendous ; but then they are accustom
ed to pulverize quartz and reduce mountains in
a manner which would have astonished Hanni
bal or any other member of the Berea failing.—
With ten thousand coolies'at work, they are, in
fact, working wonders.
On the road between Honneek's ranche and
Ellsworth lie a number of irregularly-shaped
and extremely picturdkque "buttes" or hills,
whose summits recall the "old:inin"-formed
mountains of the Saxon Switzerland, or the far
ore singularly-worn crags of Elk river, in W.
l irginia. They Consisted in great measure of
a Ferro ' one rotk, in which were imbedded vast

washed or worn by the action 'of the rain or of
the atmosphere from the parent rock, lat scat•
tered nround. This stony carbonate of iron,
known also as the sphero-siderite, is curious in
many respects. I have seen it in the Great Ka.
nawha (\ irginia) regton in vast masses, con.
taining . at lonia seventy-five per cent. of iron=
a somewhat unusual proportion. •
F,our miles from these hills, to the north, lie
tile celebrated rocks covered with Indian bier°.
glybics, which were
-thus described eleven
years ago by Max Greene :
. "Five years since it was my fortune to make
a discovery on the bluffs of the little. Arkansas,
about four miles north-west of the Santa Fe
messing, at' which mention is here made in the
hope that it will induce some one skilled in ar
chielogical lure to visit th a spot. Hundreds
of large flat rocks, some twenty feet broadovall
ig an acclivity that inclines from the south 4
west. Some of the characters are like those I
have seen on the ledges of the Rio Puerco and
among the head-waters of the Gila. Theie is
nothing modern in their appearance; they must
have been graven there ages ago,
(Fur the Reghtter.)
"Theso remaii:s, 1 believe, are many leagues
north of where any otbee inscriptions are ex
tant similar to those of Uxmal or Palenque,;
and this ilia may serve to strengthen the theory
of the Cambrian legend of A zatlan and the
Toltec tradition of their journcyiugs, south
ward."
'" , ore are many of these Indian inscriptions
on mt. Tucks of 'Lawns ; all of' which will

About 3 P. M. we reac. ed Fort ' . • •
and I cannot deny that the first impressions
the place were extremely cheerless: In con
trast to the neat and cheerful buildings, of
creamy stone of Feet Riley, here were palisad
od or stockaded huts of one story high, plaster.
cd with mud and with Ile mud roots, on which
a thick crop of dead weeds stood like the hair
f frightened man.
Tt: new fort buildings, a mile distant, as
.e.% unfinished, are of a superior description,
tieing built of sand-stone.
While standing on the outskirts of the fort,
I saw approaching, on a diminutive pony, a
middle-aged Raw Indian. Abandoned scamps
as the !Caws are, they are not a bad-looking
.ribe ; in fact, the early French explorers cull
ed them L,s bee x hommts. When at home,
they wear had bats; "lie on the bear•skin i !' as
Germans say, and look utterly degraded. But.
when off on a tramp throng% the prairies, they
array themselves in all. the glories 'of shaVed
pates, red paint, silver jinglers in their , ears,
beads red blankets, and other chaste and se
vere indications of refined taste, which . no
gentleman's toilette should be without. This is.
done to conciliate their brethren of the 'Plains
who have a way of taking off the waterfalls 'of
all civilized-dressed Indians, without chloroform.
which the latter cheerfully avoid. -The gentle
man approaching us had evidently arrayed
himself in proper style for n visit to his friends
in the country, and was beyond • question as
aboriginal as his means permitted. Ho had
his head shaved in two lines, and' colored ,ao
cording to the vermillion edict of his country
men, which sanctions the use of any color on
the thee so that it be red, while his slashed
ears, his silver earrings of many pendants
(like these on a beaver-skin), his necklaco.with
a rude brooch made of a piece of shell, his
belt, Indian shirt, tunic and .leggings, all indi
cated the defiant savage. Our conversation Was
follows
"Hallo, Johnny."
"Ugh."
"Got any buffalo shins ?"
"No buffo]."
"Where's your lodge ?"
Here the aborigine indulges in, a series: of
manual vibrations, sowings off of fingers, point
ing to the sun and other romantic manipula
tions which is explained by Lieutenant Brown
to mean, "Over the plains to the south-Nest—
a journey of a day and a half—a kin& fiat •proi
rie, and over two bills".•
"Been a soldier, Johnny ?"
"Ugh. Me soldier, no. My sister been sol
dier."
And with this astounding and remarkable
communication with regard to the part .taken
by his family in the great war of the rebellion,.
John departed.
A NOVEL LODGING Hours.—There is said
to he in Pekin a "House with Chicken Feath
ers," where houseless vagabonds may Sleep for
one mill (the tenth part of a cent) a night:; •
In an immense hall the floor is covered ;two
or three feet thick with chicken feathers, :The
customers are introduced into this hall, and
take the first place they can find ; they dig*.
pear in the feathers as if they were in water.—
All ages and both sexes lie pell-mell together.
Over this downy bed hangs a canopy as large
as the hall itself; the canopy is made of felt,
and is perforated with as many oval holes as the
hall can contain sleepers.
When the 110111%6 struck for closing the doors
this canopy is lowered to the floor.: Every
sleeper hastens to thrust his head through a
hole, in order to breathe the fresh air, mules: :
cape being suffocated by the feathers. - ' •
At the hour of rising a gongsounds, and each -;
sleeper pulls his head out of the hole, to ovoid:
being strangled by the canopy, which ks,pulled
up the ceiling by means of blocks and pulleys._.
This secures the waking of all the lodgers.
They then go to the office and pay their mill
for their night's lodging.

M.A. New York correspondent tells the fol
lowing good ono :
"A well•known journalist, who was formerly
a Washington correspondent, says that,. ,while
there during the war ! he one day asked Secre
tary Seward his opinion of Horace Greely.
"Horace Greely," said Seward, '!is a great
man—a man so full of genius and of such pow
er that if he had a particle of common sense we
would hare to hang him. • But he's a d—d fool,
and therefore harmless."
After coming to New York, the journalist,
dining o ,with the editor ot the tribune, inquired
his opinion of Sewnrd.
"Seward has brains enough'," was the reply, '
"to govern this country. No mart has a clear.
er or better bead • but the trouble with Seward
is that he is an infernal scoundrel." '
