SUNRISE At SEA.

Sept 6.-'This morning, with several 9TH
crs. rose between and 8 o'clock. to see
the sun rise. Sunrise at sea is a magnificent
sight when it is clear. First the thin clouds
begin to be tinged with golden and orange
hues: then the color deepens to rosy, resem-
bling fine summer sunset in Maine. Then
the more distant clouds are lighted up as
they are during great confiagration. In
due time the god of day shows himself APP
parently rising up out of the waves, with in
creasing splendor. until the full orb appears
in sight, with just enough of mist spread
over his face to enable us to gaze upon him
with the naked eve. A clearer view would
have been too brilliant for our weak vision.
When fairly up, the beauty and charm passed
away. and all became commonplace.
We have to-day another delightful mild.
sunshiny day. The passengers are mostly
on deck. and children at play as lively a.
though on land.

CORRESPONDENCE.

Travel ina the Far West-Much SEOvvs
 The following account of travel in the far West is from letter to resident of New Haven, which was written April 25!h:
 A little over a week ago was blockadsd by snow in the Sisrras, and stayed there for two days surrounded by snow piled up all about me like solid ocean waves, snow that had fallen to the depth of thirty-six feet, and was still silently falling as though the very demon of the mountains had undisputsd sway and was going to assert his power as against the supposed approaching spring. But the SHOW that was falling from the ciouds-l will not say from the heavens for they would scarcely be 50 vindictive-Eas the least of our troubles. The dreaded avalanche was what caused us to oook our weather eye and hope to avoid 1t, and fortunately VIC did so, al- though they showed their irresistible power, both before and behind us, carrying all before them, so great was their mass and so strong their momentum. Trees that had braved century's storm, rocks that were immovable, together with the packed snow, made a mass that nothing could resist, and when in their course they struck the snoTsheds they (ths snowsheds) withsred away like paper box hit with a aledge hammer, or a new silk hat sat upon by a fat man.
 The massive snow ploughs, backed by ten immense engines, worked and puffed their
 
 ''bsautiful ;" three thousand men shoveled and threw the heavy but fallen timbsrs of the sheds of the track, and still the ''Dsmon of the Arctic' silently made work, faster than the human devices or labor could undo it. Our train was almost empty, only seven passen- gers being in our sleeper, and although ''grub" was thing unknown, yet we man. aged to pass the time with what might be called pleasantness, playing chess, whist, smoking, sleeping, reading, everything but eating. But even here I have no cause to complain, for a friend, my travelling companion for the trip, and myself set out on foraging expedition, with the inten- tion of visiting the train ahead of us, which by virtue of . little work and more patience we succeeded in doing. We boarded the em- igrant cars, they being on the tail end, and here we found things mixed up in the most promiscuous and delightful" confusion. Babes and mothers, men and raw onions, boys and stale boots, stinks and double con- centrated foul smells. Now link all of these clements and combine hunger and it's fol- lower, in-temper, and you'll be able to draw an smigrant car in snow blockade in your mind. We'll, of course, we had passed through this car in much less time than 1t has taken to write it into it's sister, and through that into another, and now we are in what is called the frst-class intermediate.

pleasant things said about him, and he deserves them all. He brings to his new position as | thorough knowledge of Connecticut politics as any man of his age possesses, and there are few in the State of any age who know more about it's politics He is exoellsntly qualified for editorial work in other respects also, as the readers of the Post will soon discover. The brokers office which has so long dis graced the Capitol at Washington and been standing temptation to members of Congress to try their luck in Wall street, has been moved away. It is astonishing that it was ever allowed to exist. There is always some legislation before Congress that affects the stock market, and the presence of a brokers office within thirty feet of the entrance to the House, frequented almost exclusively by mem- bers of the House, has naturally given rise to much unpleasant talk and some serious charges. Governor rCornellapparently aida good thing in vetoing the bill taxing foreign capital, but he did not manage very well about sending 1t to the Legislature. He had heard representa- tives of the foreign banks against the bill, and 1t appears that he had appointed hearing for the legislative committee on taxation in favor of the bill. After he had excluded ths report CTS from this conference the committee found that he was fully determined to veto ths bill, and returnsd to the Senate chamber to find the clerk actually reading the veto message. The 'sheariBg" was thus made a mookery, and the legislators who availsd themselves of 1t were naturally somewhat disgustsd with the way they were treated.
 President Hayes action in vstoing the def ciency bill meets with considerable criticism. It is admitted that his position concerning riders is sound in principle but tho wisdom of taking that position now is questioned It is not at all probable that the veto will put a stop to riders, and the particular rider object ed to is not considered dangerous one. It involved the concession of the constitutional ity of the Election laws, and was an attempt to guard their operation from tendencies which the Republicans themselves had admit ted to be dangerous. The veto gives occasion for long and probably unfruitful political quarrel, and it is hardly to be expected that the Democrats will refrain from accepting the challenge given them.
 
 extent of the revolt against Grant in the Penn sylvania delegation to Chicago, but it is pretty certain that revolt exists. The Philadelphia Inquirer asserts confidently that ''the Phila- delphia delegates, almost to man, have signed paper-which has already received the signatures of largs number of delegates to the Chicago convention from outside the city-plsdging themselves to use every means in their power to prevent the nomination of Grant for third term" Interviews with the delegates confirmed this report, although some of thsm would not admit that any def- nite stand had yet been taken. Nearly all of them, however, admitted freely that they were against Grant and were considering methods for action.
