YELLOW jessamine f l'oixi Gotham » Di*h of Obut , j to Bjpmayrick Readers. 122 West Gist Stkket, New York, July 17th, 1882. Editor Advertiser and Appeal: Had j been instrumental in supplying yon with a more interesting commu nication than I could have written myself, I would scarcely dare at this i tt te moment to keep a hall promise to send you a few dots once in awhile. In the first place, I have not borne “transplanting” as well as the wild, tough naturo of my "genus” would atnrally have led one to anticipate. I hanker after the free, open-air life of my “sin countree,” where everyone “aew me, and returned the welcom ing smile or friendly glance given.— Well, even here in this great Babylon I am insensibly giving them, I sup pose, for on the wonderfnl elevated jsiiroad, which has literally "to be seen to be appreciated,” there arecer- ;*in stations mnch frequented by ye orrespondent, and where "a few sec onds too late” has detained her, and being “Southern, and genial of course"—I have, from asking neces sary questions for gnidance, uneon- si-ionsly gotten, as it were, acquaint 'd with the officers, so that “the lit- ,Southern lady" is now welcomed and assisted on and otl' trains as though she was an “official” somebody. Some people complain of want of.courtesy and attention from the elevated rail* oiid officials. I can only state my own experience, which is I uoyer mot with more kindly, patient, gentleman- treatment than on the elevated road, and my affairs of business and pleasure take me daily “over and of ten on the 6th and 9th avenue roads. Last week we rode over the former to 110th street—and a lovely, cool ride it wits, though so elevated (sixty feet) that it was scary—en route to see our home neighbors, Mr. Drury and family. He is, I am happy to state, improving in health. You know be is visiting his daugpfcr, Mrs. A.., the charming Miss Anna of a few years ago. Here let me say, apropos, that I have met and welcomed sever al of our, townsfolk. Mr. Ward, I nope, has recalled me to the memory if iiis and my many “Esther” associ ntcs. Mr. Wilder sent me very eor- fonntains, the distant plash of oars in the lovely lake near by, the musical laugh of children in the goat wagons, the rustling leaves and playing sun beams, the great crowd of men, wo men and children in all kinds of cos tumes, and of every class from the el egant lady, languidly leaning back in her landeau, to the bare-foot, hatlcsu little beggar, whose prematurely shrewd glance softens and grows child-like and happy as the soulful strains touch every heart and “make the whole world akin." I wish to tell you of my second ap pearanoe at a public reception—the 54th stroot grammar school, where my “ain lad” Orlie is a scholar, sent the Sunny South a sketch of my first visit, which was at the request of a band of lads of our present neigh borhood, who have flattered me by styling themselves “ the listeners/ and who gather nronnd my window doorstep, and ask abont “the South,” and soem nover to tire of my recollections of the war time. As they are “just in the civil war in their history,” Ad as they themselves say, “of course it has a slight leaning to the Northern side,” I feel it a Provi dential interposition that I have the opportunity of establishing a just balance! And who knows dial greetings, but did not manage to share the dinner I prepared in antici pation of his pssible “will call to-mor- row evening.” Mrs. Rowe and Messrs. Marlin and Spears paid their welcome respects to the exiled “queen,” and only last week one of tile beloved “boys” of L’arioso passed n week with his friend Charlie—Wm. M. Mason. Wo went to oee ‘ that most ludicrous of all satires, “Pa tience” together, and “ Charlie and Bud Mid’ Coney Island and Central Park, the Aleaza, etc.” Yon ought to come on and see this wonderfnl city. It is a “liberal education” mere ly going about with one’s eyes open. Every Saturday I go to the park, ■ H.lv three blocks off and after a love ly, shaded walk throngh sunny glades and flickering shades come out upon the crowded “mall,” a broad walk as wide as a street, glorified by life-size colossal statues in bronze and granite of great men—principally poets and authors on this walk,.though-the (A tire park is dotted with these-speak* mg illustrations that— • ■xi re* of gmt men bu* remind 0* We can make our live* ■ublime— M Humboldt, Morse, etc. But to return to the “inall/ the music stand being - lie ,i«-htiuation ot myself and my dear friend Mrs. G.

The 64th street school is only six years old—very young, yet well grown and flourishing, its male de partment numbering over 600, and all appeared bright, fine-looking lads.— They are most fortnnnte in their sm perintondent and assistant teachers. Mr. Elgas is not only “a scholar” and successful preceptor, but a most kind aud courteous gentleman. His first assistant, Mr. Shan, has brought the musical education of the school to a wonderful point of skillful oxeention. The essays were not only well ren dered, bnt gave evidence of real study and research. The subject was rather unfortunate in view of the approach- finale to the wretched tragedy of our, nation, to be concluded in Guiteuu's hanging next day, for wbat mun, or woman either, would have the moral courage to declare that capital punish ment should bo abolished, with the lamented • Garfield’s murder un avenged ? So the decision was grant ed in favor of the negative, as a mat ter of course Miss Cameron, the first teacher of my son, deserves mention as a thor ough teacher, conscientiously devoted to advancement of her pupils. Mise Taylor, who has shown.* warm per sonal interest in her Southern pupil, is not only one of the most solidly well informed and accomplished wo men it has been -tny good luck to meet in years, bat has the happy art of winning boys’ hearts while imparting in a most agreeable manner—bestow ing from the rich treasury of her own large stores of mental wealth. I fan cied the public school a vast hot-bod where the youthful minds of the city boys and girls were unnaturally forced Into premature development, but upon closer investigation and deeper insight I find the gradation is really easy portuf- ly no boy or girl’noted be nnMncated and unaccomplished, for music, in strumental and vocal; | drawing and German are included in the four years' cours'6. The speaking was ex ceptionally good, and I Ijke^lp mention by name tin young lads who covered themselves and teachers with a glorious success, but have already transgressed all bounds, saying if long in writing I have at least made a long amende.

Mr. Editor: In your. lust your cor respondent P. gave ns some words of wisdom that we might all take to our selves and improvo thereby. I am truly glad yon have added this fea ture of a truck furwing column to your paper, or, rather, given special prominence to it, for the Advertises has always preached truck-farming. — : What I wish, in brief, to say, is that J truck forming could bn made decided- j ly more important in this section than 1 it is. By way of illustration: Some i are this year giving special promi nence to sweet potatoes, and/ verily believe they will realize the biggest yield per acre ever known. A few are beginning fruit farms, giving spe cial attention to the LeConte- pear. — j Now, Mr. Editor, this does not ex- ‘ haust the list by a great deal. Sev eral other specialties offer themselves to the truck farmers of this locality. The belle or sweet pepper pinkie is acknowledged by all to be one of the finest made. Would it not pay them to devote an acre to this plant, pick ling the fruit for market It is easily raised and more easily pickled, and, besides, if desired, other articles could be pickled as well. Next comes the growth and cnltnre of arrow-root It Would thrive well on the coast, aud the yield is very abundant, besides al ways bringing a big price. It is worth twenty-five cents a pound any day, and the preparation of it is ex tremely simple. We throw out these two suggestions, in hopes some of our' truck farmers may give them a trial. Any information at my com mand will be cheerfully given anyone desiring to hear from me. Again commending you, Mr. Editor, for your interest iu truck farming, I close.
