correspondence Of the Herald.
NEAg H. PAso, juno 2, 1881.
We had the pleasure Of meeting Mr.. FLOYD
Shock. very pleasant and intelligent gentle
man who resides 10 Graham, Texas, and who
has iust returned from III Paso. From him
we gathered some interesting particulars OF
that place and It's surroundings. Like nearly
every other Texas town, railroad matters
have assumed an importance there above all
other matters. The Southern Pacific IS cons
pleted to Ell Paso, and Colonel Huntington Is
pushing tho Galveston, Harrisburg ~ San
Antonio road with his usual energy and vig-
or. The grading is now completed nearly one
hundred miles below El Paso. The Atchison
81 Topeka road runs to Rincon, about
eighty miles of FL Psso, where 1T DIVORCES TO
the west for eighty-six miles and unites
with the Southern Pacihc az
Deming. The company will PROBABLY
run a line from the divergng point 10 Nj
Paso. The Mexican Central is being graded
from Ell Paso to Chihuahua, distance OF
three hundred miles, and it is thought VIII 90
completed as fast as money and lsoor en-
accomplish the work. The Texas q racine
is or ded one hundred and hfty miles, ana
for eighty miles runs parallel and sioe by
SIDE WI t0b 0hlVestupJ i'n'i puAS ~ ~.A
Antonio road. The company has made
arrangements for ties and iron and to com
mence soon LAYING track from that end OF the
line. Fifteen hundred Cinnamon are at
work on Hunting,on's road to San Antonio.
When the Texas 81 Pacific reaches the Pecos
river, Messrs. G. Balm 81 Co. will put on
daily line of sx-h horse coaches to run from
that point to Ell Paso. The coaches are on
the road and will reach there in a short
time. 1t is understood that the Texas u
Pacific road will not connect with the South
ern Pacific, but will run their ROAD through to
San Diego. Mr.. Petriken,a distinguished
engineer, with full corps, is now running
the lines west of Ell Paso, and it is thought
the road msy run north of that town. owing
to the exorbitant demands made ftr right OF
way and depot grounds by the citizens.
Property in Ell Paso has reached almost
fabulous prices. Fifty dollars per front loot
is the least any one will take for lots in the
business part of the town. Five hundred
acres of land, known as Csmpbel's Addition,
with no buildings upoG it of any Importance
was assessed for two hundred and htty thou
sand dollars. Rents are correspondingly
high. A little adobe hotel rents for three
hundred dollars per month. Beef sells Tor
twenty cent?, common cigars twenty live
cents and whisky twenty-five cents drink;
California fruits and vegetables arc plentiful
and prices comparatively low.

THE philadelphia Times seems to entertain
an exalted respect for Mr.. George Q Cor
ham, the puisssnt knight of the Faber, who
succeeded in holding the senate at dead
lock so long that as Senator Mahone's friend
he might be secretary of the senate. 1t says
of him and his revelations as to what Mr..
Conkling's friends intend to do: "OoDkiing's
friends are outspoken in their lhrests, at least
if George G. Gorhsm speaks for them.
What a man that is What state secrets
throb in his mighty brain He now says
that if Mr. Conkliog shall be defeated in New
York by the opposition ofthe administration,
the s,alwart element will not organize either
house next winter on al administration basis.
Neither will these mighty men give their aid
to the administration in the event OF Mr.
Conklings election. There is a good d''
of trouble with Mr.. Gorham's threat. If he
speaks by authority he can mean only that
the stalwarts will vote with The democrats,
for that is about the only way they can pre-
vent the organization of congress by the adj
ministration. There is just about enough of
them 10 give the requisite vote to make the
democrats Minority both in the senate and
the house. Otherwise they can effect nothing.
They do not, that is, number any considera-
bic part Of tie republican party. Does Mr..
Gorham mean to say that the stalwarts in
tend to become democrats"

Harvard and Yale has been supplied by
statements recently made by the principals
of these seats of learning. They differ SO
materially in character as to convey feeling
of as,oufshment to minds not already INFORM

steadily tending for years towards that
condition of freedom which makes the
German students life a. Heidelberg or Bonn
90 delightful, Yale has continued the old
collegiate grasp on the consciences and
studies of her students in all its Rightly OF
discipline. The Harvard student can prac-
tically do as he pleases, so long as he does
not offend the laws of good behavior that
govern every man who would stand we'll with
society. He can choose his own studies,
and, to large extent, his hours and methods
of pursuing them. In tn: matter of religious
observar ce he is only expected to attend
