Considerable grading has already
been done. They expect to run an

They have large amount of timber

special Correspondence OF tho Argus.

special Correspondence OF tho Argus
IL is proposed to hold a great ma
tional exhibition of American art
at Madison Square Garden in 1892
and, II successful, every three years
thereafter. A preliminary meeting
OF well known artists and others
WAS held last week to discuss the
project and more formal meeting
for the purpose will be held tomor-
row. The idea has thus far met
With the most hearty approval and
at the meeting tomorrow it is ex-
pected tina. Representatives will be
present from all the leading art as
sociatlens In the country, including
the National Academy Of Fine Arts.
the American Water Color Society,
the Society Of American Artists and
tho New York Water Color Club.
The want Of of a national exhibition
Of this sort has long been felt By
American artists and it is highly
probable that they will gladly avail
themselves Of this opportunity.
Madison Square Garden, rebuilt ns
it i, will afford magnificent
chance for display Of sculpture and
large canvasses. The fact that Mr..
r. W, Glider. the able editor of the
Century" has been made chair
man of the committee in charge is
proof that the project will be push
ed with yigor.
4 railroad has just been compile
ted TO the top OF Dunderberg Noun
tain, which is situated on the banks
Of the Hudson few miles from this
city. and which is eleven hundred
feet in height. The object is to
make the mountain pleasure re.
sort for picnics and xcurslons from
this city and for that purpose
great hotel is being built on The
very summit, to which the cars will
be drawn mp the steep incline by
cable. The trip TO the top will not
be all, however, for there is also q
railroad for descending which is not
straight but spiral, winding in,
out and around the mountain for a
distance Of dozen miles, with y
constantly changing panorama to
surprise the passenger at every turn
At the base Of the mountain will be
another large hotel, convenient to
both the railroad and the boats.
The idea is to attract oxcursionists
by boat from this city, and furnish
them with ample means for pleasure
at the mountain.
