Calvary Cemetery, used chiefly by tlie
Ruinisli denomination, there is no other
burial place near this city which is so numer
ously peopled by the dead. Woodlawn
Cemetery, in Westchester, Cypress Hills,
and the Cemetery of the Evergreens, are all
well known j but Greenwood, being the
oldest, is far the most populous Large sums,
amounting to at least $2,(100,000, have been
expended by the corporation, but these
figures would appear insignificant contrasted
with the disbursements oi private owners in
commemorating the fives of those who have
gone, or preparing for those who soon must
lollow. The hand of affection has bestowed
lavishly in rearing monuments, though some
times in construct fog a vault un equal amount
ot expenditure, with no imposing display.
Probably there are a dozen instances where
individuals have disbursed betweeu $20,000
and $30,000 in the improvement of private
property. Opulent citizens seem to vie with
each other in honoring the dead.

A “KVICKBOCKF.R” TESTIMONIAL.
Tbe two Empire States, Georgia and New
York.
Under this heading the Wall Street Under
writer gives an account of what must have
been a very agreeable reunion of Southern
and Northern men iu that city, which, re
marks the editor, “wa9 not wholly uncon
nected with insurance affairs.” We ropy
from the Underwriter:
“For some years prior to the rebellion, the
Knitkhoeker Life Insurance Company, of
New York, was very efficiently represented
in Savannah by Col. Aaron ’Wilbur, well
known as a leadiDg and popular underwriter
in Georgia. Immediately on the occupation
of Savannah by General Sherman, Col. Wil
bur renewed his correspondence with his
friends in New Yoik, and came on in person
in May. Several oilier gentlemen from Sa
vauuah being in New Yoik at the time, it
viccarred to Mr. Lyman, the President ot ihe
Knickerbocker, to celebrate the re-establish
ment of our business and social relations
wilh the Empire State of the South by a
quiet social festival at Delmouico's renowned
iustituiioD, on 6th avenue. The event came
off on the evening of Wednesday, 24th ot
■May.
All the details were arranged with a quiet
good taste and elegance that was highly
creditable to Mr. Lymau, a9 a liberal host,
and very gratilyiug to all good Knicker
bockers present. An excellent dinner was
served, and a hearty welcome extended to
our Southern fellow citizeus. Several good,
loyal and eloquent speeches were made.—
“Liberty, fraternity and equality,” North
and South, being the order of the evening.
Among the principal toasts and speakers
were the following: “ The President of the
United States"—Hon. Judge Erskine. “The
xe-uuiled people ot the United Slates”—Mr.
Glassy. “The twoEmpire Sta'es’—Colonel
Wilbur. “The Pacific States”—Mr. Camp.
41 The Mercantile Marine"—Mr. Baldwin.
“The beneficent institution of Life Insur
ance”—Mr. Lyman. “The gallant dead"—
Lieutenant Waddell. “The women of the
Union”—Mr. Elliott “American Com
merce"—Col. Julian Allen. "The Bar of
America”—Mr. Frauciola. “The Judiciary
of America."—Mr. Glassy. "The Press of
America"—Mr. Currie.
Col. Wilbur and his Georgia friends ex
pressed themselves as highly gratified at
their reception in the Empire City, and we
feel convinced that “good wifi" will follow
she “ pesre” so agreeably celebrated on this
interesting occasion.

(From our Special Correspondent.]
Lake City, Fla., Sept. 25, 1865.
I arrived at Jacksonville on the 22d inst,
alter a somewhat tedious voyage on the
steamer Fountain, owing to the crippled
condition of her machinery, which could not
be repaired effectually until her arrival at
Jacksonville.
I was pleased to observe that Jacksonville,
now the commercial metropolis ot the State,
has recovered much of the traffic and pros
perity it enjoyed before the war, though the
me'chauts are compiaiuing of the sudden
diminution of trade from the country for the
past week, and are apprehensive that it is
receding from its maximum heightli for the
present season, as, perhaps, two-thirds of the
cotton iu the hands of the farmers of the
State at the close of the hostilities have
passed into the channels of commerce for
exportation.
The number of bales on hand the Ist of
April last was estimated at twenty thousand,
aud twelve thousand, it is confidently assert
ed have beou sold, leaving still in the hands
of the farmers eight thousand bales for mar
ket.
Much the larger portion of that which is
yet in the hands of the producers, will not
be sold until February and March next, fur
the reason that it is believed that the scale of
prices will be greatly advanced by that pe
riod. I have been informed also, that at
least two-thirds of the eight thousand bales
are held by the planters of Middle Florida (
who have expressed their determination to
ship it to Savannah as soon as the repairs on
the Gulf Road are completed, and the con
nection is established between that road aud
the one spauning the peninsula from Jack
sonville to St. Marks, an event which, lam
pleased to state, will transpire before the ist
of December next.
The inhabitants of the country of the Su
wannee, east of the Suwannee river, and
the counties of Hamilton. Madison, Jeffer
son, Leon, Wakulla and Gadsden, West of
the Suwannee, and the county of Jackson
West of the Apalachicola river, are evincing
much anxiety and impatience lor immediate
communication with SavaDnah, regarding,
as they do, that city as the best outlet for
their market productions.
The prospective and certain accession to
your city of the large and rapidly increasing
trade from the most productive portions of
this State will be fully as great, as you have
had occasion to loresnadow at divers times
in the columns of the Herald; and the cer
tain realization of this truly valuable com
mercial interest should stimulate the direc
tories of the roads interested to a speedy
consummation of the desired connection with
Savannah.
As far as I have been able to learn, the
present crop of corn though slightly injured
by the drouth iu some neighborhoods,’ will
be more than sufficient to supply home con
sumption, and the crops of potatoes, peas,
&c., exceed in luxuriance, that of any
former year within the memory of the oldest
inhabitants.
Florida has suffered less from the baneful
effects of the iate war than any of her se
ceding sisters, and it follows, of course,
that her citizens are, comparatively, in easy
aud prosperous circumstances ; and in giv
ing birth to the new political status which
will be the result of the quickening coa
ceptive influences of the mighty struggle
through which the South has passed,
Florida will experience but little travail, and
less damage, aud prospectively, than could
be reasonably anticipated by the most hope
ful advocates ot emancipation.
Many intelligent and loyal citizens, how
ever, expresses the fear that there is a
natural anlagouism between the whites and
the blacks which threatens dire conse
quences to the agricultural interests of the
State. The former standing no longer in
relation of protector and guardian, who had
a deep interest in the welfare aud content
ment of the freedtnen, is now being regarded
by the latter with jealousy aud suspicion,
aud confidence and security are rapidly dis
appearing under the pernicious influence of
the so-called philanthropic schemes of
Northern fanatics, who are endeavoring to
make the colored man the equal of the
white man by admitting him to the full
rights of American citizenship. I am in
clined to think that such gloomy apprehen
sions are the result, more of a inorbid con
dition ot purturbed minds,than dispassionate
and just reasoning. There is much founda
tion for the belief that the more intelligent
and considerate of the freedtnen are begin
ning to view their novel condition from
anew standpoint, where the fights of
reason and prudence are fast beginning to
dawn upon their prejudiced and benighted
minds, and I hazard the prediction that be
fore the first of January there will be a gen
eral desire manifested by them to make mu
tually satisfactory engagements with tbo
planters for the ensuing year. This predic
tion is predicated, in part on the rumor
now prevalent throughout the State, that it
is the general purpose of the prominent men
of the State to induce, by special means,
foreign' immigration to the extent, sufficient
to develope aud maintain the agricultural
and manufacturing interests of Florida, irre
spective of ’be assistance of negro labor at
all. The intelligent freedmen have been
startled by this proposition to substitute
white for black laborers in the cotton fields
of the South, and denounce it vehemently
as pregnant with evil consequences to them
selves ; and it is not unreasonable to suppose
that they will endeavor to defeat its consum
mation by a sudden and radical change in
their temper aud dispositions towards the
whites.
As far as I have been able to discover, cit
izens of Florida are emphatically for peace.
The end of the struggle is everywhere ac
knowledged as a fixed fact. The people are
rapidly settling down to peaceful pursuits.
They are heartily sick of the strife, and how
to restore the ancient order of things engages
every mind.
All historians concur lu stating that affer
great wars, especially those of an internecine
character, when the bad passions of human
nature become more than usually excited and
aroused, crime invariably exhibits an increase,
and atrocious acts are both more numerous
and more flagrant in character. War stirs up
all the worst feelings of the human heart,
encourages license and destroys the moral
sensibility. The truth of this remark is
sadly illustrated in Florida, as in all other
portions of the country, North and South.
The corrupting spirit of speculation aud an
unscrupulous desire to make niooey are rife
everywhere. From all sides I hear ot petty
crimes, of increasing lawlessness, and of
contempt for the restraints of law. Society
must, and of course will right itself in this
matter, but the steps to be taken by onr mil
itary and civil guardians cannot be too soon
adopted An ounce of preventive is worth
a pound of cure. The obvious duty of the
custodians of the public safety is to exercise

renewed vigilance, to throw additional guards |
around the property and persons of the citi
zens. aud by an example of high public nto i
rality and fidelity to duty to re-assure the
good and deter the efforts of the vicious.
I have just seen the Tallahassee Floridian
of the 26th inst., which contains the speech
recently delivered by Gov Marvin, at Ma
rianna. The good sense and conservative
spirit that have pre-eminently marked his
official utterances iu his prescut responsible
position, chaiacterize the address referred to,
and give additional assurance of his peculiar
qualifications to manage the affairs of State
in these times of social and political peril.
J. S. J
Madison, Fla., Sept, 29th, 1865.
In my peregrinations through Florida, I
found but little calculated to inteiest your
readers, in connection with rail roads. And
from my Irequent allusion to rail road mat
ters you are ready to conclude, doubtless,
that, in medical parlance, I have “rail road
on the brain." Well, if lam thus afflicted,
I aui consoled by the thought that it is a
mental idiosyncracy lhat lias for its chief
characteristic, the pleasurable contemplation
of all things indicative of peace, and the res
toration of order and prosperity throughout
this great country. Mighty is the spirit of
war, raising as it does, a lust of glory even
iu the heart of the Christian, stirring him to
slaughter, and making bloodshed beautiful,
sending him forth a terrible reaper in tho
field of carnage, and smearing him with hu
man gore as earth's best painting. And yet,
the drum beat by a destroying angel, sounds
not so musical to me as the panting and snort
ing ot the railway engine. The piston is a
more noble weapon than the sword —the
whirl aud rush aud thunder of the train
grander, more truly sublime, more sugges
tive of all that cnoblcs man in his present
thoughts aud deepest sympathies toward his
fellow, than the tramp and measured step of
glistening thousands, shaking the earth the}’
too soon are about to defile with fire aud
sword. The engineer is, in my eyes, some
thing more humanizing than the soldier,
borne on by the sublime energy of the tilings
of his creation, harnessing, so to speak, the
very elements to his use, and checking and
controlling them as might some magician of
a fairy tale ; he sweeps irom place to place,
distributing iu his way all the gentler influ
ences of civilization, and knitting more close
ly together the great family of man, by
teaching them the strength, the value, aud,
w.iat is more tbau all, the abounding peace
tuluess of a wise union ot the arts aud sci
ences, which can only exist in lime of peace.
Thus impressed with the importance of rail
r aids, I will be pardoned for again alluding
to a part of the Florida system, which I have
heretofore overlooked.
Perhaps, nopublicimprovementin the South
commanded a larger share of public attention
before the war, than the road lacing the Pen
insula from Fernandina, on the Atlantic, to
Cedar Keys,on the Gulf. Originally designed
by its projectors as a fink in the great chain
of communication between the two leading
commercial cities ot the American contin
ent, New York and New Orleans, its com- i
pletion just at the breaking out of the late
war wa9 an event which was regarded wilh
satisfaction by commercial and public spirit- ’
ed men everywhere. But like many other
roads lhat fell into the hands of Federal
Commanders, it has been damaged to an ex- .
tent that will require considerable time and '
much means to pul it again in running order;
and I regret to learn from Gen. Finnegan,
one ot the principle stockholders aud direc
tors, that no steps have yet been taken to ef
fect the necessary repairs.
The continued imprisonment of Mr. Yulee,
who is now confined at Fort Pulaski, is most
unfortunate for this road. The President of
the Company and its actiou and ruling fin
ancial spirit, his personal attentions are re
garded by all as indispensable for its imme
diate restoration to service. And hence the
general desire throughout the State that he
be pardoned by President Johnson, and re
invested with ail his civil and political rights.
It is understood that Governor Marvin is
about actively interposing in his behalf at
Washington ; and if so, his re-appearauce at
the post of duty may transpire at any inoinei t
The trains are running on this road from
Baldwin, where it crosses the Jacksonville
road, to Cedar Keys, twice or thrice a week.
On my journey from Savannah to Florida,
I was introduced to four gentlemeu from
Northern Ohio, who visits this State as a
delegation from a large community of Ger
man farmers, to examine and repot t upon
the character of the climate and soil, the
price of lands, and the temper and disposi
tion of tlie inhabitants towards foreign emi
grants ; and should the deputation be favor
ably impressed iu their explorations, a large
colony of people wifi be immediately trans
ported from Northern Ohio and Germany to
the land of flowers. The salubrity of the
climate and the high value of Sea Island
cottou so abundantly produced in the larger
portion ot the State, a knowledge of which
they derived from Uuited States”discharged
soldiers who had been assigned to duty in
Florida, has prompted this interesting move
lnent; and others of like character are ou
foot in the city ot New York, as I have been
informed, which will result iu the early set
tlement of a considerable portion of Middle
Florida by emigrants from different parts of
Europe.
Tbe politicians are commencing to can
vass the claims and availability of prominent
men for the offices to be filled under the new
Constitution. Governor Marvin, it is gene
rally conceded, will be one of the United
States Senators, and the Hon. D S. Walker,
one of the Judges of the Supreme Court of
the State, will be the successful candidate for
Governor, and will, probably, have no op
ponent. Both ot the gentlemen named are
experienced and able statesmen, and emi
nently woithy of the confidence of the
people-
A melancholy tragedy occurred in Talla
hassee on the 3d inst., in the death of Mr.
Bassnett, one of the conductors on the Tal
lahassee and Lake City Railroad. He was
deliberately shot by a Mr. Grover, the keeper
of a bar-room and billiard saloon in that
town. Rumor says that Mr. G. had spoken
disreputably of Sirs. 8., and for which his
fife was threatened by the deceased.
I have met with two or three prominent
citizens of East Florida, who avow them
selves warm advocates for the political dis- !
memberment of the State, and the annexa
tion of the eastern and southern portions to
Georgia. This proposition was mooted quite
extensive anterior to the war, but, I think,
was not acceptable to the masses, aud I ima
gine there has been no material change in
popular feeling ou this subject since the re- 1
establishment of peace. However desirable
the consummation of this matter might be
to the people of Georgia, there are reasons
of a political nature w hich forbid its tavor
able consideration for a single moment.
It affords me pleasure to state that the
Savannah Hebald has achieved for itself a
good reputation in Florida, and wifi obtain
a very large circulation so soon as mail
routes and post offices are re-established.—
Until then, owing to tbe uucertaiuty of tbe
present mode of transmission by private
hands, a triend says it would be lolly to sub
scribe. Those who have become subscribers
already complain that they do not receive
half of the numbers due them. I have been
requested by many leading men of this Stale
to assure the proprietors of the Herald that
they have observed its general tone aud pol
icy with both interest and pleasure, although
having seen but few of its issues, and, when
postal facilities are renewed, wifi give more
substantial proof of their esteem for it than
mere professions. J. 8. J.

[Correspondence of the N. O. Times.]
City of Mexico, Aug. 28.
This beautiful city continues in her un
happy position of ostentatious luxury and
abject misery. Wc have court pageants to
gild Ihe claims of this poor people and cor
rupt their eyes by a semblance of prosperity
which now here exists. To read the edito
rials of the official press, “this country
marches with gigantic steps towards its
prosperity and aggrandizement.” How far
from the realit v vou can judge by the follow
ing
At a concerted hour the gcusdarmesof the
Imperial police arrested and threw into
prison thirty Liberals, who were quietly liv
ing in their homes. First, a Mr. Zamacona,
an ex-Secretary of State—rumor accuses him
ot being the correspondent of the N. Orleans
Times. Alter him Pedro de Garay, ex-Seo
retary of War, Mr. Gusman, Mr. Romery
Rubio, Corambias, and twenty-five others.
It is nothing but the dread of dissatisfaction
which forces a foreign police to mistrust
every one who docs not accept the pay of
the empire. In every city the arrests and
banishments are so numerous that it wifi
soon take oue-fialf the nation to guard aud
imprison the other half.
Must barbarous orders are issued by the
French commanders. In the State of
Tamaulipas the lufamous Col. Dupiu ordered
every man to be hung who should be found
dressed in leather, and as the lower class use
no other material we can easily believe the
tale of the traveler, published in this city,
that every mile he traveled in that State he
found a man bUDg.
Persecutions, bauishments and im
prisonments show infallibly the state of the
sick man.
Ou the 14th of this month the Austrian
gatrison of the city of Tehuacan, composed
ot 500 men, were attacked and annihilated. I
give you the account of the Estafette. It
says :
“The forces of Col. Figueroa were com
posed of 800 men, infantry and cavalry.—
They assaulted the town aud carried it by
storm after two hours' fighting. We had a
terrible time of it, says the correspondent,
and only by a miracle was our life saved.
Our losses are enormous. The Juaristas
(Liberals) captured over SIOO,OOO, besides
levying an impost of $12,000 more. lua
few da> s I will give you some details For
| the moment my head is in a whirl.”
In the State of Michoacan the inevitable
Regules has again captured a Belgian de
, tachment of 170 men. The Belgians are de
cidedly unfortunate in this country.
The occupation of Tehuacan lias caused
great sensation, as it is a city of some impor
tance, near the road betweeen Puebla and
Orizaba, and about equi-distant from both.
The movements of the liberals were so rapid
that no knowledge of the existence of such
a large body of Liberals had reached either
Puebla or Grizaba, and great fears sire enter
tained that all the Austrian detachments on
the road will be captured.
Os Northern Mexico we hear that the road
between Monterey and Matamoras is held by
tue Liberal forces. The French journal
says:
“We have already announced that the
convoy of silver, which left Monterey, was
forced to return. It carried $700,000, but
the insecurity of the road caused the loss of
SIOO,OOO. It is known lhat Corliuas has in
j creased his force ; besides the forces of Es*
j cobedo, aud Aguirre have begun movements,
! and it is assured, so says the Sociedad, that
at our last dates Saltillo was menanced by
| Aguirre. In this situation, it is probable
i that the 800 men of Gen. Mejia, who were to
j have escorted tho convoy into Matamoras,
I have been forced to retard their march.”
| From Chihuahua the news comes that the
• French General Brincourt demands reinforce
ments, as the Liberals under General Negrete
were so strongly posted that his column was
not strong enough.
President Juarez continued in Chihuahua.
Iu the State of Duianco the Liberal Gen
eral Patoui keeps the French garrison shut
up, and was overrunning the whole Slate.
The rainy season has paralyzed the move
ments ot the beligerents, aud the Liberals
are evidently concentrating with the view of
opening a vigorous campaign in October.—
For the present no great movement heed be
expected.
Under such a state of things you can im
agine how rapidly this country is being
ruined. No one dares to go a league out of
the city. Merchandise continues lo accumu
late here, and cannot be carried into the in
terior. There is no agriculture, no com
merce, no travel.
The imperial fetes continue increasing in
splendor, and the gorgeous toilettes of the
Empress are dazzling to all ecstatic beholders.
