Letter from the Bay.

SAN Francisco October Il, 1865.
EDITOR JOURNAL Il have always heard it re-
marked among those who profess to know, that
San Francisco correspondence imposition
on the good of literary individuals, and
that the Bohemians who crowd heir latest pro-
ductions into the columns of all interior papers
which choose to print them, are a set Of profit
gates, entitled to no credit whatever, much less
to any remuneration. Now, am not one of that
class, but if your readers will bear with me a
little while. will, in brief a manner pos
sible, portray the public excitement, which is
running high and ve.y shaky at that You have
all heard of the earthquakes which have occurred
in San Francisco, and possibly some of you have
experienced the delightful sensation accompany
'ing those vibrations of terra frma. If so, you
can skip this part of my epistle with pleasure
But, Ar. Editor, the people of San Francisco are
very much dsgnsted with the condition OF their
earthly habitations just now.

suffocating, and the earth groaned and heaved
like some sea-sick monster. When at last quiet
restored, men grasped each other by the
hand, congratulating themselves upon their es-
cape from instantaneous death. The same eve
ming another came, and n grand rush was made
for an open space to avoid the falling walls OF
the already preached and loosened ediices which
line our principal thoroughfares, and which seem
ready to topple and fall at the least jar. But,
fortunately, the shock was light, and no further
damage done. San Francisco has suffered

THE YOSEMITE DisAsTEn.-The steamer losem-

landing at Rio Vista last Thursday, the 18th.
The cause of the explosion is not known to the
public and perhaps rot to the officers directly in
charge Of the boat, and as such calamties are
becoming so frequent people seem to have settled
into the conclusion that they are inevitable, and
ask no questions. At last accounts there were
some thirty deaths from the explosion and many
injured ones cannot possibly survive The Chi

occupied the lower deck, near the boilers. 1t is

Cairo & St. Louis Railroad.


The party engaged TO survey the ABOVE Road
started upon thei. duties on the l4th day oflast
August and arrived here on the 18th inst, hav-
ing consumed exactly three months in perform
ing the duties pertaining to their survey. OF
the sixteen who started out, but four continued
until the survey was completed. Considerable
sickness was experienced by the corps Of en-
gneers, and the assistant engineer died en-
route. -.
But as intimated above, the survey is now
concluded, and yesterday some 81, 900 was
paid the surveying party.
The Road as surveyed will start from East-St
Louis, and run from thence to Cairo, through
the northern end of Bellevine, touching Ur-
bana, Athens and Sparta. From Sparta it
will run over the fruit ridge situated between
Campbell's Hill and Levan's Hill, striking Big
Muddy bottom, two miles west Of Brownsville
and thence down the Mississippi Bluffs to Al
exander county, striking Santa Fee, Thebes,
and 80 on to Cairo.
The distance from st. Louis to Cairo, as sur
veyed. is l4O miles. The steepest grade is IS
feet to the mile, and much of the route does.
not exceed 10 feet. Half the route IS level or
nearly so. The curvature of the Road will not
exceed three degrees.
From East-St. Louis to parta tie Road will
run through thickly settled section OF
sections of the State.
The coal section commences about six miles
this size of East St. Louis, and ends at Big
Muddy River. Geolcgically speaking, the
coal in the section indicated, underlays any
pit discovered in this country, numbering IA
in the scale. The highest number in the Ken
lucky strata, is IL. The coal found on this
route will compare favorably with the Pittsburg

ming from Murphysboro to Big Hill, five miles
from the mines.
The fruit region through which this Road
will pass, is the finest in the State, unsurpassed
even by those OF Golden

while the !. c, r, II. crosses it twice. The
highest embankment in the city will be eight

The surveying party left yesterday to review

That this road will be built is no longer
mooted question. Stock sufficient can easily
be raised, and but little time will interven,
ere every one will become satisfied of the fact.
