HOSPITAL CANS BETWEEN New YORK AND
BosToN.-We have lately examined the New
Hospital Cars, built by the New York and
Boston Express Line Of Railway, for the pur.
pose OF conveying sick and wounded soldiers
or civilians when necessary, between these two
cities. Resembling In the outside the ordinary
tlrst-class car, the inside Is fitted up with nine
comfortable stretchers, hanging by rubber
bands, so that the patients may rest undsturbed
by the motion OF the car. Twelve easy chairs
and several regular passenger seats are pro.
yided, and there arc also attached TO the car a
complete cooking apparatus, a large medicine
chest, and wash-room. The design of the
gentlemen experimenting this through line Of
railway, without change OF cars, was TO provide
all the eOnVeniences and comforts of an hos
pital, and 1t has been very successfully carried
out under their management. Two experienced
hospital stewards and two nurses have been
appointed by the Government to take charge
of the patients, and everything has been pro-
yided to secure their safe and easy passage over
the road. Ono Of these cars leaves Now York
every morning, at = O'Clock, and one leaves
Boston every evening, at 81 o'clock-the num-
Der Of sick and disabled passengers from New
YORK averaging twenty.A day. A register OF
their names and complaints Is kept by tho
stewards. These cars were manufactured In
Springfield, Mass, for the New York and BOs-
ton Express Line OF Railway, composed of the
following companies, viz The Boston and
Worcester, Z. B. Phillips, Esq, Superintendent;
the Western, Henry Gray, Esq, Superintendent;
the Hartford and New Haven, E. NJ. Reed, ESQ.,,
Superintendent; and the New York and New
Haven, James Hoyt, Esq, Superintendent; all
OF whom, with their full staff of officers, give
every satisfaction TO the travelling public.

THE CONSPIRACY AT CHICAGO.

The plot as dvulged by the arrest Of vari-
Gus parties at Chicago. was to attack Camp
Douglas, release the prisoners, seize the po l.,
