NEW YORK IN 1S25.-The population
of New York fifty years ago was about
100. 1000 hardly more than quarter OF
the present population of Chicago,
which then had no existence except as
an Indian outpost. Brooklyn was q
struggling village of 1000 inhabitants.
and there was but one steam ferry boat
on the East river. People who wanted
to cross the river then after 8 o'clock in
the evening had to pay twenty-five
cents to boat man to row them over.
The largest ship then sailing from the
port did not exceed 500 tons burden.
Postage on single letter sheet by mail
to Boston was eighteen and three quar-
ter cents, and for double sheet, double
that sum. There was no envelopes in
those good old days, for those aids to
correspondence had not been invented.
Mucilage was unknown, and it was con-
sidered disrespectful not to seal letter
with great lump of red wax. There
we're no nmnibusses nor street railways
nor any other public conveyance, except
two-horse hackney coaches. which cost
o small fortune to ride in.

WOMEN IN CoLLEGEs.-A correspond
ent of the Chicago Tribune writes to
tia. journal in regard to the effect OF
co-education of the sexes, and the re-
suit of study upon the health of women,
as seen in the experience of the college
at Ann Arbor, Michigan, where the
experiment has had trial of six years.
There appears to be no ason why the
system should be opposed. So far as
the health of the women is concerned,
1t is evident that study is not under
mining it, while there are said to be not
a few among the sixty-seven now in the
institution whose physical condition has
been improved by the discipline of their
college life. In regard to the social
aspect of the experiment this cores
pondent states that after the novelty Of
such companionship wore off the young
men and women took little notice of
each other, and, according to the estab-
iished etiquette of Ann Arbor. there is
no presumption of acquaintance be-
tween members of the same claes. Then,
''all are kept SO busy that there is really
little time for social intercourse"

Correspondence Inio'ioF JOurEs!:
Passing along the road from Stanford to
Somerset, we found the country to be poor,
but from all indications, We think the peo-
pie are high minded, honest class, but are
Of only moderate rank so far as pertains
to industry. Along this road, the traveller
finds that habitual idleness has caused the
farms and farm houses TO be most wofully
neglected. Briars aud bushes hide the
fences, and not unfrequently, the house,
from the passer-by.
Since our last previous visit to this part
Of the country, We find barely perceptible
change Of the manner Of farming, that is
for the better. They find that corning this
poor lsnd 80 much, does not pay, and they
have. therefore, substituted a rotation Of
crops for the old uear-om method.
There appears to have been great guam
tity Of Millet and Hungarian grasses raised
in this part Of the cou' ty this year. There
seems to be a kind Of soil in the vicinity
Of Cuba and Buncom5e, that produces
these grasses more abundantly than any
one would expect.
As we passed along, we heard the people
speak of one II. II. c. A., transient col
respondent Of the Somerset Reporter, who
had written of this part Of the county,
that it woald produce perhaps peck OF
corn TO the acre, and that some Of il would
not average fodder" We think this gen
tleman il mistaken in regard to this mat.
ter, for, after making extensive inquiry as
to the condition Of this people, We find
that it appears that they always raise a
suiiiciency to supply the wants of its in
habitants, and that although they make nc
pretensions to outside display, still, they
have many Of the substantial comforts oil
life, which they are ever ready to share
with am one who will treat them genteelly
and civilly. Further-this people are said
to he noted for morality and good behavior
and were II not for few craving, covetou,
individuals, who persist in making brandy
and who, thereby, change the moral status
Of the inhabitants, il is said that the mora
caste Of this part Of Pulaski county, would
be almost beyond reproach.

Educ, Interior Journal:


AT your request have put together a
few points of interest regarding this great
undertaking. The tunnel is through the
ridge that divides the waters Training to-
wards Green river from those emptying
into the Cumberland, and is almost exactly
1900 feet long. Geologically the tunnel
lies in the sub-carboniierous limestone and
slate, the limestone predominating, and be-
ing occasionally crystalline in its structure.
These crystals are white, pink, and ame-
thystine in color. In the centre Of the
tunnel considerable flint was found, and
from the centre to the north end fossil
shells were abundant; the stem OF the So
called water lily, with numerous echino-
derms and bivalves, bcing lavishly display
ed. The operations were carried on from
thee shafts and one approach, the northern.
