THE New ROUTE TO New YoRK.-
The following important dispatch an
mounccs tic approach to completion
of n new route to New York, which is
destined to become n most popular and
dangerous rival of existing communi~
cations between the North and the
South:
FoRTREss MoNRoE, Sept. 2S.-The
steamer City of Norfolk, belonging to
the new Air Line bgtwecn Norfolk
and New York, mode her first trip
yesterday, arriving at Norfolk at 6
O'Clock, p. NJ, from Anamcssex. on
the Eastern shore of Virginia, where
it connects with the railroad for Phila-
dclphia and New York. .PasseHgers
leaving Norfolk in the evening will
arrive ut New York the next morning.
The City Of Norfolk is New steamer
and Was built at WILMINGTON, Del. 1t
is. proposed, as soon as the line gets
to working, to place OH tho route am
other steamer, so that passengers can
leave Norfolk both in the morning and
evening. The great benefit to the
travelling public afforded by this line
of steamers cannot be overstated.-
Twelve or fo,Scen hours will be saved
in travelling to New York from Nor
folk, and about ten dollars will be sa-
we'd in travelling expenses. The rates
of fare established by the Old Bay
Line of Steamers, from Norfolk to
Baltimore, have been increased since
the withdrawal, of the Lcary Line, and
this will tend to o.divcrt II large portion
of the travel from this old and we'll
known route.

the butter ?" After little hesitation
he confessed that he did not, but felt

there was at least rs much as be said.
He is a good farmer, and takes much
pains with his COWS, and it is not i'm
probable that he gets the amount OF
butter he says but it is loose way of
reckoning. 1t is pretty good dairy
that averages six pounds of butter a

to be more, and easily might be, but
