The Living and the Dead

A New York corresp ondent Of the st
j .ouis iateaiyeacer, gives very interesting
description of matters and things IN Goth
am. We make the following extract:
..The greatest store in the city i stewards,
On Broadway, just up from the astor. II
ennloys from 800 10 4Go clerks, and
some hundreds OF ladies', ii preparing the
rich articles for sale. Here may be seen
shawls for the moderate price Of I'll ,toe, bon
nets $500, neck ties $50, pocket handker-
chiefs sac. dresses from $50 UP - - 00o,
mautillas 800, and other things ditto The
building oceupies one whole blocks white
marble, six stories high. The wiudo"s,
Whica are lfge enough 20 be proportional
to the house, are filled with one pane q
glass, each costing $500. The show rooms
are lined with mirrors all around, above and
below, but the fools pence" pays well.
aud this vast establishment pays enormous
profits. as do many others on minor
scale
He visited the city cemetery, an enclosure
Of five hundred acres and describes the ex-
pensiye tombs he there saw. and says:
The tomb most admired, is CHARLOTTE
CANpEE 's--a young lady who was killed OH
Ter 18th birth day by being thrown from a
carriage. The tomb is said to have cost
s75 900, and is Of the richest Italian marble
The principal front is that o! niche Or
temple where stands Il beautiful statue ot
white marble, of life SIZE, said u be an eN-
act likeness Of the deceased. On either
side are two angels in a kneeiing posture,
pointing towards heaven, aud keeping
witch over thetomb. The design, IN some
respects, is beQutiful but proiusion " or
naments burdens the mind, and II turns away
for some more plain and simple, yet touch
ingly appropriate monument, a., Tor instance,
a iittle lamb lying upon the top Of a broken
column, simply bearing the words Our 1t
lie Lamb The Pilots VI 9nument Is one
II the finest and most Interesting, ami was
erected Ia the memory 81 the pilot who lost
his lite on bpard the ship Minturn, ia Nea
York Bay. The column is thirty feet high,
and is surmounted with u statue, with one
foot upon an anchor, and its right arm point
ing heayenward. The monum III Is III plain
sight Of the bay, and stands there 10 incite
very pilot who enters thai bay, 10 deeds of
daring and danger for tie rescue Of his teI-
l9w-men when IN dangc: from the warning
elements.

Reduction Of Railroad Fares.

The Hudson River Railroad, one OF the
most expensive Roads in the whole country,
being constructed mostly through solid rock,
has set an example 81 really low fares,
which from its success we hope 10 see iml-
iated throughout the country The Hud-
son Railroad carries passengers for ! u cts,
per mile, the general rates being from ~
to cents. and at the speed Of 10 miles per
hour, from - to 80 being that generally
attained hy passenger trains.
Though having cost double as much as
some Of our more expensive Railroads, Yet
the Hudson River Company find that at
their present reduced rates they are making
money. Why! On account Oft the increased
travel. The greatest prof. Of Railroad is
from its passengers and whatever has aten-
dency to increase the travel, without pro
rata aagmen,ing the expenses, is to the M
terest Of Company. But We cannot eN-
pect to see much OF a diminution in Rail
road fares until it be effected By competi-
ton.

Cholera

Silently hu, surely this dread scourge is
again making its way to American shores.
Like the reaper il marks its course with the
fallen and leaves track that is easilr fol-
lowed. Originating in Persia, as in 1881,
it has extended this year over a large por-
ton of Russia, stretching as far as the Arc
tic ocean. 1t has raFaged Denmark, Nor
way and Sweden. II has appeared in the
north of Germany and has attacked Ste,tin,
Berlin, Rotterdam and Hamburg. Pursu-
ing the same route as in 81, 1t has again
appeared IN England, breaking out on its
northeast coast, and IN the same neighbor-
hood in which il first made It's appearance
in the above year. Its yiralenee is unaba-
ted It's course j. westward. The ocean
Is no barrier. Already vessels bound to
America have been boarded by the sceurre
and whole crews swept FROM among the liz
ing. In one case vessel was forced TO re-
turn 10 England. Another is now lying in
quarantine in the port of New York The
authorities Of that city are on the alert, but
they cannot stay the onward march o. the
fell destroyer. Every thing indicates that
1854 will be repetition of 1882, when our
cities were almost depoPulated BY the wide
spread fatality of this pestlence. There is
no preventive, but experience has proven
that cleanliness and temperance have done
much TO mitigate its severity. Striding on
ward, it has sometimes orerleaPed whole
districts of country and, without warning,
suddenly appeared in some infected locality
thence spreading over town that ether
wise might have escaped its ravsses. Be
timely warned
