CORRESPONDENCE or q TIE RECORD.

DENVER, COLORADO, Der. I'd, 1876.
Mr.. EDITOR IL promised in my last letter
that would endeavor in my next to give some
facts about this city. feel my pen is not as
mighty as the sword, and therefore l shall
not be able to do the subject justice. 1t has
been my privilege to remain here now over a
week among the sociable, pleasant, agreeable
and law-abding citizens of this place, and |
can truthfully say chat the longer | am here
the more love the place and it's people.
Denver is the western terminus of the X.
p. II. r., the southern terminus of the Dem
yer Pacific r. r.. the eastern terminus of the
Colorado Central, the southern terminus of
the Boulder Valley, and the northern termin-
us of the Denver and Rio Grande r. II. 1t
is the capitol of this Centennial State also
the county seat of Arapahoc county, situated
at the confluence Of Cherry Creek and the
South Platte river, at an altitude of 5000 it,,
twelve miles from the foot of the mountains.
Pixies and Longs Peaks, with 200 miles of
the snow capped range, are plainly visible
through the clear mountain atmosphere.
Denver is also the location of branch of
the u S. Mint, and the seat of Wolfe Hall,
an Episcopal ladies' school, and St. Mary's
Academy.
Denver is city Of fifteen years growth,
and is to-day as stalwart and sinewy in her
developments, resources, and population, as
many town of half century's patient nurse
ing. The city presents an imposing appear
ance. 1t boasts of broad avenues lined with
shade trees, Of slightly and stately mansions,
massive business blocks, and all the modern
accessories that tend to make up Metropol-
itan city. From II log-and-canvas hamlet it
has developed into q city of masonry. The
city of Denver is built in an eliptical basin
tilted, so to speak, toward the mountains
The highest rim being toward the north end
east. From that side Of the city che obtains
view of mountain scenery sneh as tho world
nowhere else presents The picturesque
grouping OF peaks, and foothills, the undu-
lating sweep of the snow-covered range, the
backbone of the continent, 1.-The massive
mountains as whole, ever changing, and yet
the same, ever fresh iii their gorgeous coloring,
ever awful in their magnitude--all these are
attractive features to a resident in this city.
Standing like q sentinel over this army OF
neutrality-suspicious. snow-clad, and cloud
capped-eighty miles from Denver to the N
W., is Longs Peak, its summit IA, $50 feet
above the level of the sea. re stands boldly
to the front, greeting the new conner and
forming ever picture upon which the eye
never tires in dwelling.
To the southwest we can distinctly see, ap
parently only dozen miles removed, the his
toiic mountain which once gave "a local hab
i alton and name 2 to all this section of th,
country Pixies Peak. 1t is seventy-fv
miles to its base, as the bird flies, from Den

THE ExHrEITIoN.--Th annual fair of the
Doylestown Agricultural and Mechanics In
stitute, opened on Tuesday with delightful
weather. AS usual nothing was done on the
first day, bnt to get the exhibits in place, and
but few persons visited the grounds. On Wed
nesday, however, the attendance was good,
there being fully as many present as usual OH
the second day Of other years. But the dis
play was much below the average, this was
particularly the case IN the main building. -
Indeed the crowd did not seem to care much
for the disl lly Of the triumphs of agriculture
and handicraft. They had evidently, most of
them, visited fine Centennial and were not
disposed to be stunned by what was to be
seen. The patent medicine vendors, mounte-
banks, educated pig, and air gun men, seem
ed to be well patronized, while the peanut
stands and eating counters drove a thriving
/ trade. --Doylestoaen Mirror.

Mock TRIAL.--A mock trial" Freddie

was charged with having stolen chickens from
the aforesaid "Gouglehimer," and the entire
session of the Court, in the trial " his case
was profoundly interesting. The public APP
peared interested in the adjustment of this
fowl" matter, and, consequently the Court
House contained one Of the largest assembling
es that that Court has ever been graced with!
The Jury, after listening to the grandilo-
quence of the different mouthpeces of the
legal profession, and the Court, concluded
that :" Fritzy,'' whatever else no might be
guilty Of, was certainly not fowl thief"
in their opinion. and rendered verdict ac-
cordlhgly. Court adjourned.

For THE RECORD
JAPANESE CURIOSITES.

Since the monopoly of the Japanese trade
by the Dutch was destroyed and the country
thrown open to merchants, revelations of pro-
gress in many of the arts and trades have
been frequent causes of wonder. In the man.
ufacture of porcelain and lacquer ware, and
in the working of bronze and other metals
the Japanese are uneqaaled. Many articles
of peculiarly European origin are now manu-
featured by this remarkable people. Even
guns, percussion caps, and powder of good
quality, are now being manufactured by ma
tive worlSmen unassisted by Europeans. But
while we have made such progress with man.
ufactories of articles Of civilized life, the eau
casian race has not shown similar adaptable
ity, and in the manufacture and ornamental
ton Of porcelain lacquer-ware, and bronze,
Japan still remains unequaled. An examina-
tion of the stock of Mr.. John d. Emack,
formerly of this eity,) at ia William street,
New York, will impress this fact upon any
one. Its like is not to be discovered in this
country. Among other things, wine cabinet
composed of myriads Of little pieces of rare
wood, deity and curiously interviewer, so as
to form one piece, the inside lined with black
highly-polshed wood, on the surface of which
are painted golden swans, is particularly re-
markable. And in this connection the sue
cess of the Japanese in giving life-like poise
and form to birds is worthy of note, when
their poor success in reproducing the human
figure is considered. But it is to the bronzes
that attention should be particularly directed,
and of these choice collection is offered by
Mr.. E. Even the Centennial Exhibition can
produce nothing to compare with some of the
old silver-bronzes, inlaid with silver, here ex-
hibited Birds, figree work, and the omni-
present dragon, cover all the work. The col
lection is genuine, but recently imported, and
is we'll worth examining. We observe by an
advertisement, that Mr.. Emack has also open
ed store Of Japanese curiosities at No. 1342
