NJ. Mackay in his book on America, thus de.
scribes Broadway:
Sydney Smiths assertion of the inferiorty of
Broadway to Bond street is ridiculously untrue at
the present time. Bond street quotha j.? Bond
street is no more to be compared to Broadway
for beauty, extent, life, hustle and wealth than
dingy old farthng of the reign of George I'll to
bright new sovereign of the days of Queen
Victoria. There is no street in London that can
be declared superior, or even equal, all things
considered, to Broadway. 1t is "a street. sui
generis combining in itself the characteristics of
the Boulevard des ltaliens at Paris and of
Cheapside or Fleet street in London, with here
and there dash of Whitechapel or the Mino-
ries, and here aud there dash of Liverpool and
Dublin i is longer, mor- crowded and fuller
Time buildings than the Boulevard des Itaiens;
1t is as bnstling as CheapSde. and more than all,
It has skv above it as bright as the skv of
Venice. Its aspect is thoroughly Parisian-
Were II not for the old familiar names of Smith
Jones and Brown over the doors of the stores
and warehouses, and the English placards and
advertisements that everywhere meet the eve,
the stranger might fancy himself under the
lnaximiztd government and iron grip of Napo-
leon Ill.
Were there anything like uniformity in the
design of its long lines of buildings, Broadway
would be one of the three or four most magnif-
| cent streets in the world. Even without any
general desgn-for each man builds exactly as
| ne pleases-the street, in its details, surpasses
any single street that England or the British
Isles can show. From the Battery, facing the
sea, where Broadway has very ignoble com
menctment. to Trinity Church, there is nothing
| remarkable about it but from Trinity Church,
| of brown stone, with its elegant spire t. Grace
| Church. built entirely of white marble dis
tance in straight line of nearly three miles,
and thence on to Union Square and the statue
| of Washington. Broadway offers one grand sue
ression of commercial palaces Formerly. and
| perhaps when Sydney Smith wrote, the houses
were for the most part brick, gaily colored, with
here and there house of brown stone or gra-
| mite.
Conspicuous among the edifces that give the
most imposing character to this busy and beau
tiful street are Stewards dry goods store, the
iron palace of Haughwout Co, such hotels as
the 81. Nicholas, the Metropolitan. the La Fargo
| House. the St. Denis. the Clarendon the New
York and the Astor House. The last mentioned
was some years ago the boast and pride of New
York, and the wonder of strangers.

continues TO elicit much comment in political
circles here. snd even President Buchanan did
the distinguished author the justice to say that
the argument WIS able and the paper every way
worthy of an American statesman. So great was
the demand here for the number of" Harper"
containing Judge Douglas paper, that many
could not procure copy for love or money
Mr.. Buchanan was walking on the avenue with
Secretary Cobb, and perceiving his companion
had copy of the magazine in his hand, Mr..
Buchanan asked to see it one moment Then
clutching it tightly in his grasp he said: will
keep this one, Mr. Cobb, you, will please get

neither of the candidates have majority, the
Constitution thus provides for the emergency:
Art. IL. If the House OF Representatives
shall not choose President whenever the right
of choice shall devolve upon them. before the
iih of March next following then the Vice
President shall act as President. as in case of
death or other constitutional disability of the

dent by the people fails, so will that of the
Vice President; unless-which is hardly prob.
able--a candidate for Vice President shall be
run on two Presidential tickets, as in case of
Mr.. Calhoun: in which event the Constitution
makes the followi provision:
" If no persons have n majority, then from the
two highest numbers on the list the Senate shall
choose the vice President. quorum for the
purpose shall eon.ist of two-thirds of the whole
number of Senators. and the majority of the
whole number shall he necessary to Il choice"

D6r Speaking of the recommendation made
by the Railroad Convention in favor of the CEN
trail route, the s. F. Herald says:
I'VE have before. more than once demon
lrated that the southern route is cheaper short
er and better adapted to the purposes of "A rail-
road than any other, by reason of the mildness
Of the climate"
The country would be pleased to see the de
monstraton" repeated, as the people cannot ex-
actly comprehend how the "mildness of the
climate" can have anything to do with the
length of a railroad route. Perhaps the excess
sive heat which prevails the year round over the
wateress, CRASHES and God -fursaken Arizona
Territory, may have shrivelrd up the southern
route since the United States engineers passed
over it.

DISTINGUISHED VIsIToR.-0n the ID of July

more carried the citizens away. He sold his
horse and buggy and departed. A day or two
ago. gentleman from Philadelphia recovered
the horse, it having been stolen from him. and
the citizens of Cabin Point found out. for the
first time that their 4th of July orator was no
less person than the most celebrated horse
thief in this country, who has stolen no less than
FIVE hundred animals. He has since been i'm
prisoned in Mary land
