EuOis MT. WASHINGTON.
a Night Among the CiOuds---i he
s1cntfhful Atmosphere os the
White Hills.

llp Tor HorsE, Nh. WAsniSGroN,l
sept. al, 1874
We are spending the night at the Tip
Top House, Il real hotel on the summit of
Mt. Washington, not that little stone,
prison-like cdifice that used 10 do the hos
pitabe to travellers with great expense and
little accommodation to them, but Il first
you can enjoy all the comforts and luXu-
ries which that world affords. We have
just seen the last of the days light fade
away after having exhibited for half an
hour n scene Of almost unequalled brillan-
cy. Our appetites are quite beyond our
fondest hopes. They have been stimula-
ted wonderfully by the glorious mountain
air and as we have every opportunity which
good table can offer for this indulgence
there is reason to expect that the foar or
five meals which we shall partake of here
will, in effect, be equal To dozen ordina-
ries.
The season at the White Mountains is
gradually growing late, and whereas few
years ago no one was to be seen here after
the first of September, there are now near
| ly as many as week ago. This Is to be
accounted for, of course, by the increased
facilities of travel, most Of the old-Tash-
Toned staging having been done away by
the iudicous work of the Boston, Concord
& Montreal railroad, so that now it is as
easy to get to the top of Mount Washing
ton from New York, as 1t is TO so thence
to Saratoga. One can but notice the same
work in others that lie knows Is being
wrought upon himself, and it is a fact that
hardly a sickly person is to be found on
Mount Washington. One can even notice
the Improvement in coming up from the
foot of the mountain, and as men and
women draw in full Graughts of the air the
effect is as obvious as in the case of ether
inhalation, and it seems not improbable
that before long Mount Washington will
become a home for certain classes of in
valds who need the stimulus of a rareiiet
atmosphere. The delicious springs Of ice
water, so pure and clean, cannot be with
out good effect upon those who come pro
vided with drinking cups, and III many
cases there are medicinal properties, con
nected with The other good qualities, quit
as eilicacions rs those OF the Geyser or any
other of the noted Saratoga springs.

CUSTOMS REKENUR LAKs

That the (selfstyled) Independent press
of New York should malign and misrepre-
sent legislators and their acts whenever
either clashes with the interests or wishes
of that press or its clients is to be expected
False and malignant charges from this
source have become so frequent as to be
deemed almost unworthy of notice. And
they have become so common also, and
are so boldly and flippantly made, regard
less alike of truth and common sense, that
they carry with them their own autidote
They fall upon the public ear with harm
less effect except to their perpetrators
The rebound exposes the latter to the
just scon, indignation and ridicule of the
public. Ii is, however, the cause of some
amszement when such old and reliable
commercial journals as the Journal of
Commerce and the E0eaiRg Post, which
have for many years been considered
authorities upon all questions affecting the
foreign commerce Of the country, join the
self-styled Independent press in the circu-
lation of thrice refuted calumnies upon
this subject.
A case in point may be cited from the
E5sni7sg Post of last Friday as illustrated by
an article entitled ''AIOre tariff tinkering. -

falsehoods embraced in the list which it re-
produces, the Post skulls behind fhe Times,

HERE is what the Sheffield (England) Tele-
graph has to say about the reciprocity treaty:
''What the United States is permitted to i'm
port into Canada at specific duty, or free of
duty, that also it will be arranged may be i'm
ported from the United Kingdom on precisely
the same terms. Well, then, shall not our
iron and hardware manufacturers go up and
possess the landl Our serious ad-
vice to our manufacturers is: Leave no stone
unturned to take the leading positions in the
Canadian markets when the reciprocity treaty
is ratified. Send to the New Dominion the
best specimens of your manufacture, and
charge the lowest practicable prices, because
in SO doing you will be Fastening the downfall
of American monopoly, and by your excellent
workmanship and reasonable charges in the
smaller markets Of Canada, throwing open for
yourselves the larger and almost unlimited
market of the American Union, and obtaining
foothold there, from which, if you act with
sustained energy and discretion, you can never
be driven"

In our political system the Speaker of the
House is the most powerful man in the country.
He has less patronage, Of course, than the Presi-
dent; his ofhee may even rank in digRity below
that Of Vice President, but If he is an able man,
with positive opinions, If he has political princi-
pies and believes in them, he can do more to
shape the policy Of the country than the Presi-
dent and all his Cabinet and the Senate to boot.
Almost the whole business Of Congress is pre-
pared and matured by the House committees,
and the Speaker appoints these committees.
Thus HIS power to promote and his power to pre-
vent any line Of policy are equally great, and It
is literally true, though too apt to be overlooked
by the public that the Speaker of the House
unless he is a mere igurehead like the late Mr..
COlfaI-does more even than the President to
shape the policy Of the country.

has been too hasty in announcing the sale

doun county, Virginia, distance of ffty-two
and half miles from Washington. This dis
lance will be increased in few days to fifty
five miles by the completion of the road to
Round Hill. The road passes through popu-
lous and productive country, including the vii
lagos of Falls Church, Vienna and Herndon,
and the stations at Hunters Mill and Thorn
ton, in Fairfax county, and Guilford, Farm
well, Leesburg, (the county seat) Clark's Gap,
Hamilton, and PurcellsVille, in Loudoun
county, Virginia. The contractors are at work
upon the grading west of Round Hill Station
to Snickersville at the eastern foot of the Blue
Ridge mountain. The entire road to Winches-
ter is under contract, a distance of seventy
nine miles from Washington, and the work is
being prosecuted as rapidly as the company's
means will allow. The supplies for our daily
food consumption brought to our city by this
road are considerable, For the year ending
September 80, 1874, there were the fol-
lowing important items, viz: Butter,
sos barrels and 1,4S3 irkins; 932 barrels
and 74S boxes eggs; 491 barrels and 1909
cOops of poultry; 256, 716 lbs. fresh pork; 1876
carloads of live stock, and 500 tons of hay.
This is but a small taste of the benefits which
this railroad will confer on Washington. The
company has for years endeavored to prevail
upon, first, the corporation of Washington.
and afterwards upon the District government
to aid this enterprise, which is designed to be
a great national work, extending from the seat
of the General Government to the Ohio river
at Point Pleasant and to Cincinnati. We
give the following table of distances
from Alexandria by this road, viz: To
Winchester, IS miles; Rock Enon Springs,
90 miles; Capon Springs, 95 miles; MOorefeld,
1917 miles; Summit of AlIeghanies, 1863
miles; Forks of Red Greek, (coaI), 1722{ miles;
Buckhannon, 2942I miles; Weston, 2}915
miles; Point Pleasant, 325 miles. On
the Shenandoah river, sixty-two miles
from Alexandria, are immense bodies of iron
ore of good quality, and between Rock Enon
and Capon, there is a bed of the same ore three
hundred yards wide and twenty-five miles
long in one stretch, sufficient to keep busy
twenty-five furnaces for two hundred years.
The mining and smelling of these ores would
not cost one fourth of what it costs in Penn
svlvania, surrounded as they are by the best
of coal and limestone. These coal deposits
extend from the Alleghanies to the Ohio river,
along the line of this road, and embrace both
the Cumberland and Pittsburg varieties, the
latter being an excellent gas coal. 1t is
a matter of great regret that our au-
thorities have never extended to this road the
assistance which it needs and deserves.

SUICIDE in this country appears to be alarm
ingly upon the increase. DR.. Hamilton tells
us that in the city of New York it has increased
three hundred per cent. in the last seven
