1t is generally known that a movement is
also on foot to construct an underground rail
road in the same city. The Tribune adds:
In a few years we shall have the Under
ground Railway running from the Battery,
striking the Harlem River, and reducing the
time to White Plains That will be vast en-
terprise, and we wish it well. We think a
higher rate of speed will be obtained on the
Underground railway, as the locomotive may
whirl along at forty miles an hour. But we dc
not imagine that it can be finished in less than
three years, and certainly at a cost not less
than seven or eight milliCn of dollars The
builders will have to hew their way in many
places, through solid rock. The Elevated Com
pany proposes to build and equip its road a.
far as Thirtieth st. for $8000 The stock

money in building the section on Greenwich

Brown had not yet left his farm in the northern
wilds. An obscure individual, remembered by
few as having once represented SangamOn

Mexican war in an awkward, disingenuous and
extremely unpopular argument, received few

GIVE HIM ONE.-A correspondent of the
Cincinnati Times, who has been riding by rail-
road through Iowa, is responsible tor the fol-
lowing:
There was q funny little episode on the car
that helped to arouse us. At Montana young
man and young woman came on board of the
sleeping car and the former said:
See here, Conductor, | want one of your
best hunks for this young woman, and one for

and aifectionate poke at Marian with his elbow,
to which she replies: Now, John 'quitll
for you see we re gon' to git married at Maria s
uncle eS when We git there.
Maria was assigned to one of the best
hunks" and John was given one not far away.
After a time the inmates of the Car were all
slowed away in their berths.
During a stoppage of the train at one station
the voice of John was heard, raised in pleading
accents, all unconscious that the train had stop
ped, and that tones which the noise of the rat
Ting wheels had drowned while the cars were
moving could be distinctly heard by all when
they stopped. or
Now, Mari, you might give afeller jes' one

John, you quit, or I'll get right out here

Just at that interesting moment gray head
protruded from a berth at the other end of the
car, and an old man cried out SO that all could

of Arabs with you. The population of Jerusa-
lem is said to be l4,000."
The correspondent, upon this fact moralizes
thus:
"While looking at the city as it now stands,
with narrow streets filled with Arabs and filth,
it is hard to realize that it was the home Of
more than one million human beings, and the
proud metropolis of a mighty nation: While
looking out of the window at the Mosque of
Omar, where the Turks hold rule, / can but
ask myself the questions, Is it possible that on
that spot stood the temple of Solomonp The
pages of history answer yes. That spot is
Mount Morah. Upon that ground stood that
Temple whose glory filled the whole earth.
\ BISHOP MISTAKEN FOR KU-KLUx.-
The Southern negroes, in horror of the Ku-
| klux mysteries, are particularly fearful OF
graveyards. They have always been supersti-
tious in this regard, but now they will not go
within mile OF cemetery. An amusing
story is told about Bishop Beckwith, of Geor-
gla, who had occasion, some time ago, to visit
IA remote portion of his diocese.
There were not many EpiScopalians in that
region of Georgia, but few of the whites had
ever seen a successor of the Apostles, and the
negroes did not know what sort of creature q
Bishop was. 1t soon became nOised about that
on certain evening the Bishop would arrive
and hold services in a church of a certain viii
lagG OF the district, ana the whole nelghOor-
hood was filled with curiosity to so and see the
queer animal that read prayers out of book.
The negroes were especially excited, and they
, determined to attend the church in mass. The
house ofMOrship was not an Episcopal church;
consequently it had no veStry-rOom i'll which
the Bishop could put on his vestments. This
. difficulty was, however remeded by some one's

should require it. Long before the time desig-
mated for the opening services, the little church
t had become filled with the whites Of the vi

b the door. The bishop, at the appointed time,

ELEVATED RAILwAY.-A charter has been
granted by the New York Legislature for an
elevated railway in the city. The Tribune says:
Gas we understand the plan of this COmpa1-
nv. il is now proposed to build single track
with two turn-outs, or side-tracks, between the
Battery and Thirtioth st. The road will run
upon iron supports, about twenty feet above
the payement. Instead of locomotive power,
it is proposed to run an endless chain, moved
by stationary engines, to which the cars will be
attached. It now takes fifty minutes, at least
to go from the Battery to Hudson River De
pot on Thirtieth st. ; and we fancy there are
catching a special train, give themselves OIL
hour. This company claims to be able to re-
dnce that time to twenty minutes, so that the

The APPLE WoRM.-The american E,s:Onao-
og'st furnishes the following: It has been known
that by placing an old cloth or anything Of that
nature in the crotch of the apple tree, the apple
worm may be decoyed into burying their CO.
coons underneath it, and thus be destroyed
Wholesale Dr.. Timble's method-wbich amounts
TO the same thing, aud has been found to be
practically very benefcial-is to fasten two or
three turns of hay band around the trunk of the
apple tree, snd every few days, from the middle
OF June to the middle of September, to slip the
hay band up and destroy the cocoons that have
from time to time been formed on the bark un-
derneatb.
All authors are agreed as to the practical i'm.
portance Of picking up and destroying the
wormy apples as fast as they fall, either by hog
power, or when that is inconyenient and imprac-
ticable, by man-power. The practical utility of
allowing gang of hogs the range of the apple
orchard throughout the summer is undoubted
When We consider that every female moth that
matches out in July or August, from the first
brood of apple worms, will probably deposite an
egg in some two or three hundred matured ap-
pies, thereby rendering them unsaleable, the i'm.
portance of destroying the wormy windfalls, in
the forepart of the season, at all events becomes
at once apparent.
