NEW YORK CORRESPONDENCE
New YORK, July 25. 1855

To 40 observer of human nature, New York
presents many phases in life worthy Of close
study. Tie different classes OF society. thc
peculiar customs, habits, and manner OF living
% each, their occupation Of time aside fro.a
business, all afford an interesting theme for
rehection have stood for hours watching
the tide Of rushing, struggling, iostIing bn
nanity, as it poured along some one Of the
main arteries OF the city, and endeavored To-
rcid In the features Of each paSser-by the mo.
tiNeS that We're urg ing him onward at such 4
rate. This city above all other places that
nave ever known, Is one Uf incesslIt hustle
and everybody seems driving at a reckless
speed over the road OF life, rs if only eager to
reach lis terminus, as soon as possible. People
rush into the street; they rush UP and down
the street; they rush to the bankers; they
rash to the barber; they rush to their meals:
and, whcl,ver they find moment to deyot TO
pleasure, they rush headlong 10 some plac, of
aaluScment-ln fac;, whatever they 10, wher-
ever they e., or whatever they say, is done
with a rush, a. If not only their life but
thelr eternal happiness rested upon their ex-
ped,tiJus movements. Some one has very
aptly remarked, - Boston i. the place to visit
Philadelphia the place to live, and New York
the place for business This is essentially
true and for residence simply, should
choose any other spot than New York
The Mayor complaint book has worked a

morals, and is still daily patronized" by in
lured individuals and public philanthrop6ists
: but as was to be xpectcd, thousand absurd
complaints are entered, and a good deal of
nonsense noted down. Some people also get
quite poetical IN theit desire to see Justice
done or nuisances abatcd, as serious attemnts
at rhyme appear on almost every page, One
enthusiastic gentleman last week recorded the
fact that

Which smells quite bad, upon my soul
And gently hints to his honor, in the same
metre, that if he will pay a visit to the spot
or send an official substitute

street,
Some discerning critic might perceive in
these lines a similarity to those written nv

wherein he chronicles the fact that Three

- CREDITORS DESTROYING A RAILRoAD.-Tbc
creditors Of the Ohio and Mississippi road,
who were engaged in taking up the rails at
sumner OH Thursday, took the precaution to
station men along the line so as to inform the
conductor of the approaching train of what
had been done. The locomotive was, therefore,
brought to halt before it arrived at the gan,
Another depreciation was committed Saturday
night near Xenia, by taking up rail but
they did not take the same precaution as was
done on a previous occasion, and one or two of
the cars were badly injured. No persons on
board were hurt, and the train arrived at nine
1'clock yesterday morning.-St. Louis Re
