Joy, Recei- yer of the Dutchess and Columbia road i; Hon. Wm. H. BarnuuA President of the Connecticut Western Road c. F. Clark, trustee for the Burdell mortgage bond holders of the Boston Hartford and Erie Road, now the New York and New Eng land Railway; Samuel Knott, Superinten- dent of the Hartford Providence and Fish

 These persons constituted full represents. tion of all the interests involved in this proposed "All rail" communication be- tween Boston and the Hudson River At Newburgb, together with the proposed transfer across the river, and the line will form an unbroken connection between New England and the Erie Railway, Its branches and connecting lines. Tho confer ence lasted the whole afternoon, and all the preliminariss were agreed to. When opened, this line, 1t is stated, will bring the coal-6eids of Pennsylvania nearer to Bos- !od by from 50 to 100 miles than any other route, either existing or projected It is expected that the line will be in full opera ton on or before June 1. It is asserted that this is . consumnistiOu Of . scheme entered upon by the old Boston, Hartford and Erie Railway Company, which became embarrassed about three years ago. To gether with this combination line of Eail' way, 8 new connection is proposed to be made during tue coming Summer by 6lliAg up two short gaps in New Jersey, in all not exceeding P miles, and thus making ( direct line between the Hudson River al Newburgh and Belvidere on the Delaware, distant about 30 miles.

This connection will open to New
 England the Lehigh coal-6elds, and give [ connection with the Delaware, Lackawannt and Western Railroad, which, with th' Erie, will open to New-England all th' anthracite and bituminous coal regions o
 Pennsylvania. The cost of this cOntempls ted connection of railroads, together will the transfer ut Newburgh. will be Abou
 $65O 900, of which $500, 900 has beel already pledged on the line of the route

Living De0lh.

Living Death. Oh happy he whose lot it were to miss The frowu that settled OCT brow of snow; The tremor of dull pain you ne'er may know, Like grief that follows after some dead kiss. And oh tue numbness that wsn watching brings, To hearts long schoolsd in wretched loneliness; . The looking with sad eyes on deep distress, The weary waiting promised better things! And now I look adown the aisle of years, Aud see, prophetic, corsc stiff, stark and cold; stand aface to Time; his hand hold; And yet their sweetness is in all my tears; breathe soft, delicious, dying breath, And loving God and man, go down to death

DAIRY PRoDUors AND THEIR PRIcRs One of the largest houses engaged in the pro- duce business in New York have issued . circular under the title::of Caution to Cheese Manufacturers and Consumers" in which they draw attention to the fact that the cost of the products of the dairy is now so great as to materially curtail the consump- ton; especially on butter while at the same the production has increased. They believe that dairy product can no longer resist the general shrinkages in values, and that all the indications point to such reaction In prices as will revive the dropping demand They say further:
 We recommend all milk buyers with whom we have any influence to make their contracts at from twenty to twenty-i per cent. less than they have been doing for some time past, but we do not claim that prices must sooner or later come down, in keeping with other articles of American produce and we believe thA, we are now in that transition state which will change butter and cheese from articles of luxury to those of necessity, and prces accord ingly."
 The New York Bulletin pronounce these suggestions well timed, and expresses the opinion that the price of butter during the season just closing has been too high both for producer and receiver, and has served the interests of neither. The Bulletin adds that producers must modify their expectations on forthcoming crops, at the result of the txtremely high prices prevailing this season has been to frighter off the great mass of buyers, and greatly curtsil the home demand, while the demand for export lies almost entirel, dorment
