RAPID TRANSIT.
From tho Battery to Harlem In Twenty

From the Battery to Harlem In Twenty
Minutes and That Within Thirty
Days.
NEW YORK, Feb. I, 1874.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERAAD:-
Since you are manifesting so much interest in
the subject OF rapid transit through the columns
of the HERALD, and since SO many plans are being
proposed, desire to make proposition for the
practical solution OF she question. 1t is neither an
underground railroad-dark, damp and dismal
nor an elevated road 'forty feet high" or any alt
tude above the ground nor ts 1t four track rail-
road through any avenue. requiring charter from
the Legislature and the expenditure OF large sums
OF money for tracks, rolling stock, &c. 1t Is simply
to make available any or all of the common road
beds they now exist, as most Of them are suita.
Bile for my purpose without alteration or improve
ment.
will take any wheeled carriage wagon, truck
other vehicle now in common use, and, by the
application OF q simple mechanical invention, con-
vert it into locomotive or moving body the same
being propelled by any OF the moving forces which
are now used Tor land travel or iOcOmOtion The
carriages may be used separately or they may be
used In trains. These may be safely driven
at q speed ranging from ten to thirty miles per
hour, according to locality and conditions. They
can be driven with safety through any street or
avenue, and over all grades which usually occur In
we'll constructed highway.
The expense Of such an application would be
seen brought forward, as 1t woud save millions OF
dollars in new constructions on the one hand,
and utilize vast amount OF property which
would otherwise be comparatively valueess
on the other No charter is required from the
Legislature, the local governments of cities and
towns have authority to grant any mode OF con-
veyance which does not permanently Obstruct
streets endanger human life or encroach upon indi
vidual rights. Hence no delay, because there
would be no occasion for log rolling, lobbying and
the formation OF corrupt rings to bafile honest
legislation and cheat the public out OF its natural
and political rights
The plan could be demonstrated and put into
actual practice In less time than any charter what
ever could be obtained from the Legislature and
the surveys made for any road, to say nothing Of
time for construction. :.
The plan Is very easy to demonstrate on small
SCALE ana therefore does not require time and
trouble to raise large sums OF money or to form gi-
gantic companies to test It's practicabity. The
public have been praying for some relief IN the
matter OF transit Tor years, and no feasible plan
has yet been agreed upon. 1t is high time some-
thing was done. am ready to back up all have
asserted In theory and practice or forever forfeit
all right to any reputation as q mechanic and
engineer. ]. w. II. HILL.

REAL ESTATE.
Active Inquiry in the Direction Of the New
Wards and Other Encouraging Signs.
SOME VITAL AND OTHER STATISTICS.
Conditions Present Affecting the Market
and the Logic Of the Past.

The suggestion contained here from time to time
respecting the future Of the real estate market,
that an active movement might be looked for this
spring in the direction OF the newly annexed dis
trict Of Westchester county, gains confirmation
and encouragement each day. we have before
pointed out here the various conditions helpful TO
this result that are now operating, not the least
important OF which we may again note as growing
out OF the recent great disturbance in the fnan-
cial affairs OF the country. Thus the addition OF
the larger part OF the sO-called reserve of
$44, 100000 to the permanent circulation OF the
country not only promises plethora OF funds at
this great money centre, but also the shrinkage
in most values consequent upon the panic
has released further considerable sum, which, in
seeking reinvestment will select a source whence
such shrinkage Is least to be feared Need 1t
be added that real estate more than anything else
offers this solid security. That recognition Of
this natural law OF supply and demand prevails,
and has prevailed, in real estate circles Is not,
therefore, matter Of surprise.
sHREwD OPERATORS HAVE BEEN BUSY FOR SOME
WEEKS
back buying up land In the new wards in large
parcels, confident that they would reap great
profits thereon. 1t will be but history repeating
itself after oil, the history Of the New York real
estate market being continuous story OF rapid
and steady appreciation. In this connection the
following figures taken from the report OF the Gen.
tral Park Commissioners for 1871 will serve as al

The Changers Moving.

Many prominent Grangers are now
In San Francisco, and there Is q great
deal Of hustle about their headquarters
on Leidsdorf street. The new State
Executive Committee met for the first
time on Tuesday last and continued
their meeting yesterday. Day before
yesterday they conferred with the Di-
rectors of the Central Pacific Railroad
at Mr.. Stanford's office. The talk was
conciliatory on both sides. The Com
mittee said that they preferred, where
practicable, to accomplish their ends
by personal intercession, since the
ways of legislation were long and de-
vious and the results not always GER
tain. The railroad men replied in the
same spirit of candor and accommo-
dation. The chief complaint was that
the local freight rates were too high,
which greatly diminished the farmer 8
profits, and it was agreed by the of1-
cials that they should be reduced to
reasonable rates.
The Committee on immigration
met yesterday at headquarters. 1t
consists of seven members. Three of
those-Josiah Earl, o. L. Abbott and
- Dean were present; the others
were represented by proxy. The bus
mess Of the Committee is to assist
Changers of other States to get homes
in California by furnishing all essen
tial information. Mr.. Earl was
appointed agent Of the committee, and
will take entire charge Of the work in
this locality. Mr.. Abbott will act as
Corresponding Secretary, and will
furnish all Of those who desire to come
to this coast, or those lately arrived,
with details of soil, climate and avail
able localities The agricultural popu-
lation of the State is Increased about
