Remedy for (be Heat.
Jefferson Cos., Ga., July 26, 1869-
Editor» Chronicle & Sentinel:
I hear great complaint among my neigh
bors (and infer that it is general through
out the country at this particular season of
the year), relative to a very common skin
disease called the “heat,” especially with
corpulent individuals. I, therefore, pro
pose a very simple and cheap remedy,
which I vouch for effecting a speedy cure,
and think that it should be given to the
public in order that many a restless night
spent by those afflicted with this annoying
disease, may be passed away in sweet re
pose, undisturbed only by dreams.
The remedy I propose is this: Take £
pound of common table salt, which dissolve
in one gallon of cold water, bathe with
the same for three nights in succession (or
it may not be necessary to apply the ap
plication more than twice), and the patient
will find himself thoroughly relieved.
It is a fact taught by all well-informed
chemists that salt possesses the peculiar
quality within itself of extricating heat
and retaining moisture, hence its frequent
use as a fertilizer among farmers. Now,
it may be the action of the salt upon the
surface ofthc skin on this general princi
ple, that is, by extricating the heat from
the blood and keeping the pours of the
skin open and moist that destroys this
humor. However, I leave that for better
chemists than myself to determine.
All I desire to do is, to lay before the
public a simple but a certain cure for the
disease. Yours, truly,
Experimenter.

Editor * of the Chronicle & Sentinel:
A heavy rain fell throughout our county j
on Saturday night, crops are revived and
look much better, too late for forward j
corn ; late corn will make two-thirds of a
crop. Cotton generally looks very well,
especially where manure has been used j
freely, and as forward as last year, but
where no manure has been used the plant
is small and has but little fruit upon it.
It seems to me to be a great piece of
folly for a planter to undertake to cultivate
poor land with free labor, cither for wages
or crop on shares, without manures. The
firms immediately around the village
have not suffered for rain, and have been
highly manured, and most of the land
has been planted in cotton this year. A
small bet was made and won yesterday by
one of the amateur farmers and one of
the Advertiser corps; the farmer bet
that he had a stalk of cotton in his field
that had two hundred and twenty-five
bolls and squares upon it; the count was
made and the bet paid by the gentleman
of the Advertiser office. You had best not
bet your money on a stalk of cotton and
corn against these city farmers, as they
have the advantage of you every time.
The wheat and oat crop has been harvested
and thrashed out in good condition, and a
f air yield. Planters well satisfied with the
quantity.
The Baptist Church at this place was
occupied by a negro preacher yesterday,
who had hundreds of hearers. He har
angued for two hours, to the great annoy
ance of the peoplo living within half a
mile of the church; this, in a time of in
surrection, the Baptist Minister, Rev.
L. liroaddus, being absent at the Baptist
Convention. As the negro rnelish has pos-
M -sion of the village, this is no reason
they should surrender their church to the
negroes. If the Baptist Association do
not secede from this church they ought to
reprove such proceedings as we had here
yesterday. Oliver.
Remedy for tiie Turnip Fly.-8,
Edwards Todd, in the Working Farmer ,
proposes to rid the turnip crop of this pest
by the use of ashes. He says:
As soon as the young plants can be seen,
let a lightsprinkling of wood ashes be sifted
over the rows. It will not injure the
house-wife’s seivo that is used to sift Indian
meal. Ashes canont be applied satisfac
torily with the hand. The aim should be
simply to cover the minute leaves with fine
ashes sufficient to prevent their being de
voured by the turnip fly. When ashes are
applied by hand without a sieve, which
should he held close to the ground ; careless
operators are very liable to throw it on so
bountifully as to smother the tender plants.
fare of Horses.
Al ter more than twenty years, experience
as a horse owner, a correspondent of the
Colonial Farmer undertakes to set down a
little of his experience concerning the man
agement of that noble animal.
Commencing when the foal is a day or
two old, Igo to it, and pass my hands
down its lace, along its back, and down its
legs to the booth bind end fore, not to mes
merise or charm the animal, but to aceus
tom it to being handled,|a thing which can
not be commenced too soon. Foals are
animals that, when quitoyiung, have more
sagacity, aud are more tractable and easily
taught than any other animal, so whatever
you want them to learn, commerce before
t hey aro old enough to make resistance,
and depend upon it, they will never forget
it. L'ut a halter on it, and lead it about,
but be careful not to let it break away from
you. Be very kind and gentle to it, but
show that you are its master.
1 next proceed to the horse’s feet.
Horse’s hoofs aro things of the greatest
importance; for who would want to follow
a lame horse at either work or pleasure.
Many things ruin the feet of horses, which
I cannot pretend to touch on, but 1 will try
to point out a few errors which any man
can seo and correct, the greatest of which
is leaving their shoes on too long. This
hurts the hoof, strains the leg, and causes
lameness in every shape. In tho Winter
this has a worso effect than in Summer, as
then tho feet are more dry and clean,
whereas in Summer they are wet, and the
mud and heat of Summer will rot the hoofs
andicauso tho shoes to fall off. I have known
horses’ shoes nailed on iu the Fall, and not
taken off until tho next Summer, when
they would fall off in the pasture, a prac
tice which seldom fails to bring on lameness.
A horse’s shoe should never be on longer
than three months, and two months are
very often too long. Horses’ hoofs were
meant by nature to go bare, and run on
the earth in their natural state, and as long
as we drive them on such, they need no
shoeing; but when \ye drive them on paved
streets, hard roads, etc., wo have to shoe
them, and stop the wear that nature meant
should be on their hoofs. The consequence
is that the shoe binds the hoof, and ofteh
causes contraction and many other evils,
when nailed too far to the heel, left on too
long, or when the hoof is not sufficiently
pared down between the shoeings. See that
the shoe is not nailed too far to the heel.
Any intelligent map can see when a shoe
has bseu on long enough, and take it off,
wheu it may be left off a day or two or
longer, as the case may be. A drive over
soft snow, a few days, plowing or harrow
ing, or the like, would spread the foot and
help to counteract the effects of shoeing.
Always see that the hoof is properly pared
down be..ore tho shoe is again put on. I
have often seen the hoofs of old horses
greatly improved by being left bare a few
weeks in pasture. There are many other
things that hurt horses' feet as too poor
feed, too high feed, too hard driving.
The most natural feed for the horse is
what he can pick for himself, but as we ,
cannot let him run and pick his own living,
let his feed be as near natural as possible.
100 high or two low feed have both a bad
effect, but as different individuals will form
very different notions of what high and
low feed arc, l will try anJ point out what
1 consider the middle course to be. Hay
alone, be it ever so good, is not fit feed
for horse, whether working or idle. They
need grain, with an occasional feed ot roots’,
bran mash, or something to keep their
bowels open. Horses need regular feed.
The feed I generally find best for horses is
about Id pounds of hay and from nine to
twelve quarts of oats, given in three regu
lar feeds, with a feed ot raw potatoes once
a week, when idle, or at gentle work; and
a small increase when at hard work. The
practice of feeding horses all.the hay they
can eat when idle, has many bad effects;
whereas if they get three small feeds, they
will stamp about in the stall, and take ex
ercise between feeds, which will keep their
legs from swelling, eta But remember, I
do not advocate small feeds of hay without
grain. Avery cheap way of feeding horses,
and not a bad way, is on straw, with a fair
allowance of oats. I have tried a great
many experiments, and have found horses
always do batter on straw, than horned
cattle. Horses will do better on straw,
provided it be good, than they will on hay
only, without grain in both cases; but of
course they must not be stinted. The
maiu point with a farmer who keeps horses,
is to use them in such a way as will give
them all the strength and agility the animal
is capable of, and to work them ail they
can stand without injuring either. The
poor, half starved horse is an animal any
man ought to be ashamed of; but on the
other hand, the pampered and over-fed and
half worked horse, though he may look
very nice to some, is an animal I would
advise the farmer not to keep, as such
animals are more liable to loss than any
other.

Caterpillar Reported Near Mont
<JOMERV>--Tbe Montgomery Daily Adver
tiser of Tuesday says:
We regret to learn that the veritable cat
erpillar has made its appearance on a plan
tation eight miles from town. It will be
some three weeks yet before they fully de
velope, and then our planting friends will
have to look out. The crop is at least two
weeks later than lastyear. If the worms
multiply as they usually do it must be cut
very short.
The Cotton Crop and the Worm in
Middle Florida. -The Floridian, of the
20th, has the following upon these inter
esting topics :
Divers and sundry rumors are in circu
lation about the caterpillar having appear
ed in small numbers in various localities.
This, of course, is a bad omen, and looks
as if all our hopes are to be blasted ; but
it is growing rather late in the season, and
the cotton is becoming too far advanced
fer the worm to be able to effect much
damage ; and if the hot, scorching sun of
the past week has not effectually killed
out those few that have beeo seen, then
they possess much greater tenacity of life
than we have been led to believe. If we
are Dot mistaken, this time last year the
caterpillar bad done great damage to the
cotton in the fields, and we think our citi
zens may dispel all their fears about the
fate of the present crop. “Black seed”
cotton, we believe, is still young enough
to be damaged by the worms, but a few
more days of hot weather will place that
beyond their reach.
Reports from all sections of the country
represent the crop as in splendid condition
-the stalks healthy aud vigorous, and
heavily fruited ; but all hope hangs upon
a precarious tenure-the “pleasure” of the
caterpillar. Yet, from all indications, we
predict a large crop, a good remunerative
price, aud general prosperity to all classes
of our people. 8o mote it be !
The Forthcoming Louisiana Rice
Crop. —The New Orleans Price Current
of Saturday, the 17th instant, says:
Until within a few years past the rice
crop of Louisiana attracted very little at
tention —in fact its cultivation was almost
exclusively confined to a limited numbered
small planters residing in the Parish of
Plaquemine, below the city. It is in this
Parish now that tha bulk of our riee crop
is produced, though there aro tens of thou
sands of acres of land in the State on which
rice can be profitably produced, and which
will in time, no doubt, be placed under
cultivation. The increase in the produc
tion of rice in this State has been wonder
fully rapid sinee our people have gone
more earnestly to work in effltivating it.
From some twenty odd thousands of bar
'rels of the weight of two hundred pounds
each in previous years, the crop last sea
son rose to 68,915 barrels, and it is esti
mated that there will be the present season
an increase of production of fully twenty
five per ceDt,, or, in other words, that the
crop will reach to 86,000 barrels of gOO
pounds each. This estimate is based on
the views of parties long engaged in our
domestic rice trade, and who have person
ally visited the rice growing districts not
only in Plaquemine, but also in the upper
Parishes, where the cultivation of rice has
considerably increased reeently. The ap
pearance of the growing crops is very
promising generally, and in the absenee of
severe storms the above estimate of the
crop wiij pot only bo verified, but the quali
ty of the rise wijl he better than usual, as
more-a tendon than formerly has been
give to the selection of seed. For the care
thus bestowed some planters were last sea
son repaid by obtaining as high prices for
their crops as were paid for prime Caro
lina rice, in the market. Unlike sugar, pice
is principally cultivated by small farmers,
and they resort to the neighboring mills,
of which there are some ten or twelve in
the State driven by stqam power, to have
their crops cleaned and placed in marketa
ble condition. Harvesting will commence
about the Ist of August, and new riee will
probably be seen in the market about the
15ch of that month.

FRUIT FOR FOOD.
One of the common diseases of ch iidren
is worms in the bowels. If a child’s diges
tion becomes impaired, and the g astric
juices become weakened or defective in
quantity by over-eating of bad food, the
whole alimentary canal becomes clogged np
and filthy, and furnishes a nest for such
worms as will breed there. In this weak
ened condition of the system, they cannot
be destroyed by the process of digestion,
and hence great harm comes from them.
Now. it is an interesting fact that fresh,
ripe fruit, is the best preventive for this
state of things. Dr. Benjamin Rush point
ed this out a hundred years ago. He made
a series of experiments on earth, worms,
wich he regarded as more nearly allied to
those that infest the bowels of children
than any other, with a view to test their
power of retaining life under the influence
of various substances that might be used
as worm medicines. The- results proved
that worms often lived longer in those sub
stances known as poisonous than in some of
the most harmless articles of food. For
instance, in watery solutions of opium they
lived eleven minutes; in infus'on of pink
root, thirty-three minutes; in claret wine,
ten minutes; but in the juice cf red cherries
they died in six miuutes; black cherries, in
five minutes; red currents, in three minutes;
gooseberries, in four minutes; whortleber
ries, in seven minutes; and raspberries, id
five minutes.
From these experiments Dr. Rush argued
that fresh ripe fruits, of which children are
very fond, are the most speedy and effectu
al poisons for worms. In practice this
theory has proved to bceorrect.
If we eat and drink hot and exciting
materials the blood becomes inflamed, the
nerves exasperated, and the brain sends
out thoughts that are base and mean. If
we would do away with those foods that
only influence the passions, and substitute
more fruit in their place, we would need
less restraint on wrong-doers, for our heads
would be clearer, our blood cooler,our nerves
steadier, our impulses more subject to
reason, and life would be a hundred per
cent, truer and better than it is to-day.
We have only to read the travels of al
most any of our great explorers .to learn
that fruits are often the only medicine that
will effectually restore health. Dr. John
Ross, in his expedition to the Northwest
many years ago, gives an account of how he
cured his men of a loathsome disease by
simply feeding them on wild raspberries,
found growing abundantly in all of our
Northwestern States and territories.
We should be careful, however, not to
jump at conclusions. 4 very bad ease of
dyspepsia has been known to be cured by
eating two slices of raw onion every day
before dinner- But because it cured one
personas no proof that it will cure another,
reaches have been known tp bring on ery
sipelas. Consequently each person must de
termine what is best for himselfindividuaily.
Soap Making.— Mrs. L. C. Merriam,
Lewis county, New York, sends the Ameri
can Agriculturist the following, which she
assures that paper makes paost excellent
soap; “For one barrel of soap, pour into
a stiong barrel four patent pailfuls of lye
that will bear up an egg; add thirty
pounds of melted grease (previously tried

OUR TRAVKLLINtt CORRESPONDENCE.
On the Wing, July 27, 1869.
Editors Chronicle & Sentinel:
The Augusta District meeting of the
Methodist Church assembled in Milledge
ville, Ga., on the 24th inst. The good
people of Milledgeville, of all denomina
tions, opened their houses for the accorn
dation of the delegates and visitors in a
manner characteristic of their noble hos
pitality. Each seemed to vie with the
other as to which should do the most and
do it the best. Strangers from abroad
soon felt at home among friends and ready
for a faithful dispatch of the business
which had brought them together.
The introductory sermou was preached
on Friday night by the Rev. W. H. Potter,
Presiding Elder.
On Saturday morning the names of dele
gates were enrolled and the business com
menced, which consisted in hearing re
ports from the Stations, Circuits and mis
sions throughout the District. Some of
the Churches were represented in a torpid
and lifeless condition, while others were
healthy and the prospects encouraging.
Tho zeal aud interest of tho peo
ple, in the Church and but of it,
in behalf of Sabbath Schools, was
highly commendable, and it was
thought this great nursery of the church
was never more properous. It was main
tained by those of the most extensive ob
servation and experience in this depart
ment, that nearly all the accessions to the
church were from the Sabbath school.
If it had been demanded, I'could have
added for their information, that from
seven years intimate acquaintance with
the-history of the convicts in the Georgia
Penitentiary, that out of about one thou
sand, first and last, not five of the number
were ever subjects of regular Sabbath
school instruction. Other important sub
jects were considered and acted upon by
tho Convention, among them the estab
lishment of District male and female high
schools for the immediate benefit of those
living within its bounds.
Sparta was designated as the point most
central, and agreeable to the people within
the boqnds of the Augusta District.
There were no definite plans adopted
for this new enterprise, simply a resolve
afton its inauguration, and leave the
practical workings of its machinery
for future development. The Con
vention resolved upon the re-establishment
of camp meetings, at least three within the
bounds of the District. One for Augusta
and Richmond, one for Columbia and
Warren, and one for Hancock and Bald
win.
The plan of having cloth tents, as in
Maryland, Virginia and some of the West
ern States, was regarded as the most con
venient and economical, and I presume
will be adopted. This subject elicited
quite an enthusiastic discussioh, and the
decision in its favor was unanimous. It
was resolved to have a camp-meeting this
year in Richmond county some time in the
months of August or September.
On Sabbath and Monday following Bish
op Pierce preached sermons that will be
long remembered by all who heard him.
On Monday his subject was the revival
interests of the Church, in which he main
tained that without these resuscitating
and in-gathering occasions, the Church
must necessarily go down. Such an able
and powerful defence of Christianity and
its influence over the world I have never
heard. Deep and frequent outbursts of
feeling pervaded the vast congregation,
which embraced the different denomina
tions of the city. The Convention adjourn
ed on Monday evening, though the reli
gious exercises were continued with very
encouraging prospects. Traveller.
Terrible Flood In Texas.
Unexampled Rise in the Colorado River
—La Grange and other Towns Com
pletely Submerged—Houses Swept Away
and Floating Toward the Gulf.
La Grange, Fdyette a>unty Texan (July 11J Csrrctpond
encf of the Galveston News.
Friday this beautiful little town present
ed a scene which, for excitement and
terror, has rarely been surpassed in the
annals of our State. For a week past the
Colorado river has been very high, render
ing it difficult and generally dangerous to
cross even in a skiff, thus cutting off near
ly all communication with Bastrop and
Austin, the stages and mails being hem
med up and unable to get out. Thursday
night the good people of La Grange went
to their beds, leaving the river stul some
ten or fifteen feet within its banks, and at
nine o’clock it broke over its banks above
and below, thus throwing two immense
tides of water upon the town. At eleven
o’clock the water had met in the flats or
valleys between town and the river on the
southwest side, and was swelling very
rapidly. At twelve o’clock it found its
level, and having driven all the inhabitants
out of the western portion of the town, it
began turning over the smaller houses and
floating them away toward the gulf. At
one o'clock it was within a block ot the
public square, and rising so fast that it
drove the crowds back from its edge. Here
the scene beggared description. Great
crowds of women and children stood at the
water’s edge,and with wringing hands and
straining eyes saw their homes filled by
the ruthless flood, and many of them swept
or turned over where they stood, while the
crash of furniture and smashing of doors
and windows told too horribly the ruin
that was going on within. Men rushed
back and forth on horseback or afoot,
seeking their families, or asking for
assistance to tie a house already swim
ming, or claiming help from the idle
lookers-on to move their furniture from
those rot yet inundated, but were soon to
share the gen ersl fate. Wagons loaded
with furniture rattled to and fro at ft. 1
gallop, sorno to the high ground with
their confused mas.-, of household wares,
and others to take off the remaining stores.
Before three o clock the public square was
a sheet of water. Store doors were thrown
open, and merchants and clerks strove to
save their goods by piling them in their
second stories and on their counters, while
every man, and everything available was
P®* joto requisition to save the women and

S "re’ * n{^*cate d the extempore construction
of boats and rafts; while the lowing of eat
tie, the shouting of men, the screaminsr of
women and children, crying for help,
mingled with the increasing beach-like
roar of the mighty gorge, filled the mid
r.ight air. They filled the imagination with
horrible fancies, and the steady rising of
the waters, the rapid currents rushing
around the corners, bade them speed with
their good work or it would be too late. A
boat was made of the boards of houses,
and filled with strong oarsmen, who went
through the streets and yards searching
for those who needed help. There was
no party distinction ; friend and foe allied
together to meet the common enemy.
Slowly, one after another, they brought off
the few who had “determined to stay and
meet the fate of their homes,” but who
became terrified when they found it so far
exceeded their expectations.
Saturday morning came and found the
little town, which but the day before look
ed so fair and quiet in the confidence of its
security, now deluged with a remorseless
flood; for on the square and in every store
stood four or five feet of water. It was
wholly deserted, and all the inhabitants
had fled to the high grounds and hills ip
the northern and northeastern suburbs.
There was a scene of general confusion ;
every house was filled with the fugitives,
not only homeless, hut without food—for
they had not time to take provisions with
them, or, if they had, they were too terri
fied to think of it.
The scene was terrible. For fifteen
miles, a j far as the eye could reach to the
North, YVost and South, the country was
one unhroken sheet of water, except one
hill, of some two and a half acres, about
five miles away.
All of Rabb’s Prairie was under water,
and a fair estimate may be had of its depth
when we say that the water reaobed near
ly to the second story windows of Captain
McDow’s large residence, whioh stands on
the general level of the prairie. Here and
there, away in tho distance, among the
clumps of oaks whose matted branches
lapped in the glassy flood, might bo seen
the roofs of houses but yesterday occupied
by prosperous planters. Nearer, above
and below on the south and eastward, the
zig zag track of the river was marked by
the rush of great oaks and cotton-wood*
that stood for years. Side by side with
these, in wild confusion, floated -the roofs
of houses and the dead forms oi'o trie, that
told tea well the devastation that had gene
on above and in the whole valley of the
river. Never befora had a country looked
so prosperous, crops so well grown,Yarms so
well tilled. Every circumstance seemed
to have aided to build up the hopes and
prospects of each planter, premising unex
ampled prosperity to reward him for the
year of sunburnt toil. * * *
As yet the amount of damage to the
t >wn and inhabitants cannot he estimated.
Yet it is IRK),oQosurely; while the dam
age done the crops and country it would
take millions to recover.
While we thus describe La Grange, have
we thought justly of thq sister towns—
Bastrop above and Ooiumbus below—both
on lower ground, and from whom com
munication is cut off ? We can only base
our opinion upon the calamity before us,
and imagine how far greater it is with
them. The wires aro down between here,
Bastrop and Austin ; therefore, nq news
from either,
Tuts Overflow, which has never been
equalled on the Colorado within the his
tory of Texas, has ruined Fayette county
and its prospects. The greatest farming
section was along the river bottoms on
both sides, and now that all these are
destroyed or nearly destroyed, it will boas
much as the inhabitants can do to save
food and raiment for the ensuing year,
without expeoting to mako money. What
will be the story from the lower river we
do not yet know, we may expect the
worst.
We have no news definitely from the
other side of the river yet. As the ques
tion may be asked, it is strange to say that
no person has been drowned so far as we
have heard. Rumors are afloat of men
being seen to float down the current of the
river on housetops, yesterday and day be
fore, supposed to have come from above.
It is not impossible, nor yet certainly true.
All business will be at an end here for
some time—until the town is righted and
“cleaned out.”

Ocean to Ocean In Six and a Half Days.
The Trip from San Francisco to New
York — 1 lirough by Rail from Sacramen
to*-A Pleasant Journey—The Passen
gers and How They Enjoyed Thennselves.
The first through trip from Sacramento
to this city without change of cars was
completed yesterday morning. The pas
, sengers, which included a number of ladies
and children, were evidently not fatigued,
while the journey was generally pronounc
ed to be one of great pleasure and interest.
One of Pullman’s palace cars, attached to
the regular train, leftSacramentoon Satur
• day, July 17, at half-past six o'clock a. m ,
nearly filled with excursionists, the follow
ing being the names of those who arrived
in this city :—W. A- Bray, wife and four
children , A. S. Hulburt, C. M. Derby,
wife and three children, all of San Fran
cisco ; Charles A. Townsend, of New
Haven, formerly captain of the United
States mail steamer Fulton-, S. Lipman
and Mrs. A. Newland, of San Francisco;
M. Jacolliot, bearer of dispatches from the
Ouecn of Tahita to the Emperor of the
French ; Mrs. Jacolliot, Mrs. Corbeft and
three children; J. Nortou and wife, John
G. Garland, wife and two daughters;
Mrs. M. E. Walker and family, George
H. Parker, Miss Latten and Miss Poe, anti
Frank W. Hilton, conductor. There were
in all between thirty and forty passengers,
many of whom were bound for Europe and
arrived in time to catch the steamer St.
Laurent , which sailed yesterday morning
for Havre.
It is needless to say that the event was
regarded as one of no small importance,
for, although the journey from San Fran
cisco to New York has been made by many
persons since the completion of the Pacfic
Railroad, changes of cars were found ne
cessary at several places on the route.
Yesterday morning, however, the trip was
rendered complete, and the passengers
were doubtless highly pleased at having
been the first to make the journey com
plete. A large number of persons congre
gated at the depot of the Hudson River
Railroad this morning to await the arrival
of the pioneer car. The regular Pacific
express, to which the car was attached,
was due at seven o’clock, but at that hour
it had not made its appearance. Even
then many were not slow to express ap
prehensions concerning the car; but a few
minutes after eight o’clock all fears were
dispelled, for the cars were then in sight,
i and a feeling of gratification spread it
'self around. As the steam engine
steamed up to the depot a loud cheer
burst forth from all sides and the greatest
cariosity to see the passengers was dis
played.
On the outside of the palace car was a
large yellow placard labelled, “San Fran
cisco to New York,” an announcement
that was read with both surprise and de
light. None would have wondered very
much if the passengers had come out limp
ing with fatigue, or pale and sickly look
ing, having come such a distance. Yet a
healthier, livelier or more pleasant group,
apparently never left a railroad car. The
gentlemen were quite brisk and active,
while the ladies and children were all
smiles, and received che congratulations of
their friends with evident joy. Altogeth
er, the scene at the depot was quite an in
teresting spectacle, and was of itself very
significant.
Ihe passage from Sacramento to New
York has been accomplished in six and a
half days, without the slightest accident or
mishap ; and some of the passengers are
now on the Atlantic Ocean, on their way
to Europe. Those who arrived from Sac
ramento yesterday morning speak of the
trip in the highest terms of praise. It was
not at all momentous, as the beautiful
scenery, the friendly and sociable com
panions 'and the excellent arrangements
contributed to lend a charm to the journey,
which was thoroughly relished by all.
The road is described to be in good con
dition. The car stopped twelve hours at
Promontory Point, and half an hour three
times a day for meals. It is intended,
however, that in future there will be no
delay at Promontory Point. The average
speed over the Central Pacific road was
about fifteen miles an hour, and over the
Union Pacific from twenty to twenty-five
miles an hour. Altogether the entire route
is spoken of as very beautiful and enter
taining. Chicago was reached on Thurs
day, July 22, at 4 o’clock p. m.
The Plains furnished some sights to the
passengers. Here and there immense
numbers of deer and elk were seen racing
about, doubtless terrified as the iron horse
dashed along the road. Thousands of
prairie dogs were seen at times, but no
buffaloes were observed. As already
mentioned the journey was not marked by
any feelings of uneasiness on the part of
the passengers and everything went right
smoothly from beginning to end: indeed, it
must have been an easy ride all the way,
since of the twelve children nearly two
thirds were not seven years of age, and
they looked quite fresh and blooming upon
their arrival here.
The passengers took a i arting farewell
of each other at the depot, some proceed
ing directly to the s earner bound for
Europe. The arriva of the first through
car Irom Sacramento ;s an important event
not easily to be lest sight of, while it must
ever be a pride and pleasure to those who
travelled by it. Here we have the two
oceans linked, while the steamer is await
ing the coming of the passengers hound
across the broad Atlantic. The great high
way to the Eastern empire is opened, and
the dream of millions will soon be realized.
Remarkable Feat.—Yes
terday the Missouui Pacific Railroad Com
pany performed a feat which is entitled to
rank among the extraordinary ones in the
history of railroads. This was no less
than the changing of their entire track from
at. Louis to Leavenworth—a distance of
318 miles—to the narrow gage in sixteen
hours.
• K ao£ was formerly 5 feet 6 . inches
in width, and it became desirable to alter
it to 4 feet 8} inches, so that it would con
form with the tracks of other railroads, a
number of which connect at Kansas City.
Extensive preparations were made for the
change; new engines ana cars were pur
chased and many ears altered.
Everything was finally got in readiness,
and it was decided to commence the hercu
lean task of altering the width of the track
on Sunday morning Two hundred and
seventy-eighty men were engaged in addi
tion to the large force in the employ of the
company, and the were detailed to
do the work on different sections of the
road at the same time. The work com
menced at the Leavenworth end at 4
o’clock yesterday morning, and from St.
Louis at 10 o’clock. Tkechange was made
without.the losing of a single train.— St.
Louis Republican , 19 th.
New Invention. —A new process has
been discovered by which a kiln of brick is
burned uniformly throughout, leaving no
salmon. This in less time
and with less f'*l than it has heretefore
been conceived of. All the bricks burned
by this process are said to be hard, red,
and ringing brick, precisely alike in com
pactness and color, which has been here
tofore a great desideratum. All informa
