THE CRoToN WATER.

Two hundred and thirty-six and half miles of
Croton pipes underlie the dirty pavements of New
York, carrying through all the crowded streets
and between the reeking cutters ceaseless tide
of pure, health-giyng water. No other city in the
world enjoys a supply so extensive, and none needs
it so continually. No other city in the temperate
zone is constantly exposed through the immigra-
ton and trade, to the influx of pestilontial mala-
dies and no other city government has ever mani
tested such supeTlative Indifference TO the public
health as that which New York has Just shaken off
With q population peculiarly subject TO feyers
and others epidemic disorders, and with streets
which have become the standing reproach Of the
country for their unparalleled flthness, we are yet
enabled TO hold fair rank in the sanitary scale.
For this rank we indebted almost entirly to the
Croton water. Twelve years have suiiced to spread
IL through nearly every part of the town nearly
all the edifces built during that period have Il
laid throughout while public hydrants provide
measurably for dwelling not internally supplied

About 81 miles have been put down within year

Stands for a new Reservoir" During 1853 seven
miles of the aqueduet in Westchester County were
fenced for the better protection Of the works; an
other portion has been graded, sloped and seeded
down the ditching and surface-draining have
been completed throughout the line and the
tagging Of the distributing reservoir has been re.
laid in bed Of cement, to prevent the percolation
rain water into the chambers beneath. The last
examination OF the aqueduet was made in Noyem-
] ber, and occupied three days, during which the
water was entirely shut off, The work was in a
good state, very little repair being needed, the
whole expense of which would be less than $751;

THE ANTI-sLAvERY BUGLE.

Of which the range is known as Kouteny Mountains
occupy the whole width Of the Territory for a dis
lance Of from 100 to 100 miles, is covered with
heavy timber and numerous well grassed though
narrow valleys. The Nez Perees the Spokanes the
peude d'Oleilles, the Coeur dEleienes and other
tribes in crossing these mountains have from three
10 four horses for each man, woman and child, and
even children Of year and half old will be seen
guiding their horses, one hand only on the rein,
entirely unconscious they were exciting the wonder
and admiration of the passer-by.
The Cascade Mountains have two good passes,
and on Puget Sound climate Of extraordinary sa-
lubrity, milder than that of Virginia. and the same
average temperature though more equable than
that Of San Francisco, and a soil which yields rich
returns to the husbandman. The strawberry is
often in blossom in December and February, and ice
has to be imported from the colder regions Of the
north.
The country between the Cascades and the
Cqur Eleine Mountains is generally well adapted
10 grazing our tillage and much Of IL exceedingly
well watered. Many Of the Indian tribes are
known TO be rich in horses, and they have made
considerable advances in the cultivation Of the SOIL
Such is the general Character of the country con-
Meeting Puget-Sound, the great roadstead OF the
Northern Pacific, with the great basin Of the st.
Lawrence. Tapping the magnificent valley of the
Upper Mississippi having within its borders the
Missouri and Columbia, the tributaries Of wagon
roads and its railroads, and themselves great chan
nels of communication, the Rocky Mountains bro
ken into spurrd and filled with valleys, the other
mountains having practical passes, 1t adds not a
little to its interest that IL the scene Of the
labors Of our first, our most successful and our
most dauntless explorers Lewis and Clark. The
sagacity Of Jefferson saw that here waj great nat
ural rout, and he placed the men at the work who
made it known to the nation. Public attention has
now become fixed upon this field Of the country's
first great exploration, accomplished nearly half
century ago. This field we will examine and de
,cribed in a series of articles.-[ Pioneer.

DIR. DEWEY, according toa Washington cores
pondent of the Tribune seems to be endeavoring to
redeem his character from the odium he won by
his justification of the Fugitive Slave Law, and his
willingness to send his own Mother into slavery to
insure its execution. This writer states that
though DR.. d. was regarded as a traitor to the
cause Of freedom when he came TO Washington,
he has taken in his sermons "the broadest higher
law ground" and has often condemned slavery as
incompatible with Christianity. Should DR.. Dew
ey's future action confirm these hopes and prove
him to have truly repented of his shamefulness
prostrations of Slavery, and to have become sin
cere friend of freedom, he will find the abolition
lists ready to forget the past and as prompt and
cordial to commend, as they werehonest TO rebuke
his prostitution of his rare talents to SO ignobe
purpose.-Pd. Freeman.

SINGULAR FAcr.-Sir Edward Parry, the cele-
brated arctic navigator, recently said speaking of
the Polar Seas =
"You cannot imagine the changes that take place
in the ice there. / have been myself sometimes
beset for two or three days together by the ice in
such q way that from the masthead could not see
sufficient water to float bottle in, and in twenty
four hours there was not bit of ice to be seen ;
nobody could tell why; cannot tell why and you
might have sailed about as you may in your own
river as far as tho ice is concerned"

Cleaned above the narrow street,
And the sultry air Of Summer
THAT You called so warm and sweet,)
Fevered the poor Orphan, dwelling
In the crowded alleys heat.
Zone bright day, with feeble footsteps
Slowly forth he dared 10 crawl
Through the crowded city's pathways,
Till he reached the garden-wall;
Where mid princely halls and mansions
Stood the lordliest Of all.
"There we're trees with giant branches
Velvet glades were shadows hidei
There were sparkling fountains glancing,
Flowers whose rich luxuriant pride
warfted breath Of precious perfume
To the child who stood outside.
He against the gate ofiron
Pressed his wan and wistful face,
Gazing with an awe struck pleasure
At the glories Of the place;
Never had his fairest day-dream
Shone with half such wondrous grace.
"You were playing in that garden,
Throwing blossoms in the air,
And laughing when the petals foated
Downward on your golden hair;
And your fond eyes watching DER you,
And the splendor spread before you,
Told, Houses Hope was there.
"When your servants, tired Of seeing
His pale face ofwant and woe,
Turning to the ragged Orphan,
Give him coin, and bade him 60.
Down his cheeks so thin and wasted,
Bitter tears began to flow.
d" But that look Of childish sorrow
On your tender young heart fell,
And you plucked the redest roses
From the tree you loved so WE'LL
Passing then through the stern grating,
With the gentle word, Farewell!
Dazzled by the fragrant treasure
And the gentle voice he heard.
In the poor forlorn boys spirit,
Joy and sleeping Seraph stirred;
In his hand he clasped the flowers,
In his heart the loving word.
SO he crept to his poor garret,
Poor no more, but rich and bright
For the holy dreams of childhood
Love, and Rest, and Hope, and Light
Floated round the Orphans pillow
Through the starry summer night.
Day dawned, yet the vision lasted;
AL too weak to rise he lay;
Did he dream that none spoke harshly--
All were strangely kind that dayH
Yes; he thought his treasured roses
Must have charmed all ills away.
And ho smiled, though they were fading
One by one their leaves were shed;
Such bright things could never perish,
They would bloom again. he said
When the next days sun had risen,
Child and flowers both were dead.
"Know my little dear one our Father
Does no gentle deed disdain;
Aud in hearts that beat in heaven,
Still all tender thoughts remaip;
Love on the cold earth remaining
Lives divine and pure again !"
"Thus the angel ceased, and gently
Ger his little burthen leant;
While the child gazed from the shining
Loving eyes that DER him bent,
To the blooming roses by him,
Wondering what that mystery meant.
Then the radiant angel answered,
And with holy meaning smiled:
Ere your tender, loving spirit
Sin and the hard world deiled,
Mercy give me leave to seek you
was once that little childw
