Our issue for the current week now ready for delivery is one of unsurpassed interest, contain- ing full and graphic reports of the election riots by eye witnesses; Editorial ‘notes by the way”’ upon the great railroad excursion ; eity election returns; ings of the Old and New School Presbyterian Assemblies; California and Cen- tral American matters; Washington news and gossip ; list of patents for the week ending June 2d; Navy Yard matters; government improve- ments; official appointments; proceedings of the Louisville American National Convention; late news from all quarters of the globe; four exquisite poetical articles, “Old Grandpapa ;”’ ~ The Grief Song;"’ “The Love of God;” and “The Pilgrim Pathers ;* and a great number of capital tales and sketches such as ‘‘ The Fisher- man ;"’ “The Panther Foiled;”’ “ Slander and Suicide ;’’ “Moral Character of the Finns;”* “ The Murder of Elder Pratt; “The Beauty “A hint to females who ride in ‘What becomes of the Old Pian- ©Powers statues for Mr. Astor and Mr. Lenox ;*’ Where does wood come from ?"’ “ The French Army in the East;’’ ‘ Establishing an Heir ;"’ “Helloa Mister ;"’ “Physical Educa- “ Monstrous Superstition ;’* “John Pho:- nix in the Ladies Car;" “A Dream Fulfilled ;’* “ The Growth of Peals,”’ ets., ete., ete.; also, an infinite variety of spicy personal items; and readable paragraphs upon all sorts of subjects. This rich budget of interesting matter is fur- nished at little more than the cost of the bare white paper; three cents for single copies in strong wrappers for mailing, or $1 25 per year. 2 SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS The Intelligencer gives, this morning, a com- munication from a Virginia correspondent. whose object is in concise terms “to define the attitude which the two sections of the country, lately arrayed against each other, would seem to oceupy with reference to the only operating eause of the alienation which has existed be- tween them. and from that attitude to derive a lesson of moderation for the instruction of both the North and the South, the former of which may well be content with the prospect of peop- ling all the new States which are likely to be added to the Union, while the latter. if disap- pointed in the acquisition of increased political power by the Territorial legislation of the year 1554, has yet the amplest pledge in the guaran- tee of the Constitution and in the assurances of the great bulk of the people of the non-slave- holding States for the securing of its social sys- tem where it already exists.” The Union has another communication from “A Retired Statesman,” in which the Dallas- Clarendon treaty rejection is discussed. The Union, noting the hopeful change in the signs of the times. as indicated in the changed tone and attitude of the leading men and Presses of the opposition since the election of Mr. Buchanan, says : “ He has been in ‘er but three short months, and, in place ot the frightful evils which the Black ha apap papers confidently predicted would follow bis election, we find political friends and political opponents cordially and unitedly assigning to him the hoe sane noorypiy a8 a states- man an administrative officer, and recognis- ing in his official acts a spirit of energy, sagacity, fearlessness, and deep devotion to the true inter- ests of the whole country, which has elicited from them the liveliest expressions of admiration and gratitude.*’ NOTES BY THE WAY. (Editorial Correspondence of The Star } STEAMING ON THE ROAD—PENNED BY STEAM. Jcexr 2—2.25 p. m. We are about to be off per the Marietta and Cincinnati rail ears, that being one of the roads the opening of which (in oratorical parlance) “calls as together.’ The portion from the op- posite side of the Muskingum at Marietta to Chillicothe, is the new road. We reached Ma- rietta on the lashed steamers two hours ago amid the booming of cannon and beating of drums, to be received by a motley crowd of per- haps a thousand souls—Ameriean and German —men, women, boys and girls, all, it seemed to me, bitten with what I long since came to con- sider the Northwest mania, for untidiness of personal appearance and gancherie of man- ner. I am always disagreeably affected on crossing the Ohio with the suddenness of the change of race manifested in the persons and “* presence”’ of the two populations—the one on the eastern and the otheron ghe western side of the river. On climbing up to where the crowd Was stationed (in a sort of procession headed by General Cass and Mayor Swann of Baltimore, followed by members of the Maryland govern- ment, of that of the Baltimore and Ohio, and Northwestern Virginia Railroads,invited guests and a pell-mell crowd) Governor Chase of Uhio, who had been invited to make the reception address, stood, imperceptible. in the crowd above us, which opened sufficiently to let the General and Mayor Swann into its midst, and then suddenly closed ; so that few indeed of the arriving company could hear what was said or see what was then and there done. The speech of Governor Chase was carefully written out beforehand ; the reply of General Cass being an impromptu effort, I regret exceedingly that I failed to be able to hear it, for it has been de- seribed to me, bya very competent critic, as having been one of his happiest speeches of such occasions, wherein he rarely fails to shine brilliantly. Mayor Swann beingcalled on also poke on bebalf of his city, and the Maryland Secretary of State on Maryland’s behalf. Col (and now Gov.) Fayette McMullin also deliver- ed an address on behalf of the Old Dominion. I Presume that net more than fifty of the throng heard the speeches, the ladies even being shoved pretty unceremoniously into the back ground Coming from a region where the most boorish man will politely give place under any and all circumstances to any and all females, it struck us as being very odd to see them on this ocea- sjon treated with aught but the deference justly their due When the speaking was over and the cannon ceased to boom, some of us went out to the cel- ebrated Indian mound. situated in the midst of the town’s cemetery. Marietta is built on three plateaus, rising one above the other as they re- cede from the river—their different levels seem- ing to have been formed by persistent action (or level) of the stream in past ages. On the ride out to the mound. I saw little worthy of espe- cial notice. Perhaps I should mention, how- ever, a miniature Unitarian chapel, which, being erected with some pretensions to archi- tectural taste and finish, was evidently regard- ed with wonder and pride by the unwashed portion of ourweleomers. I look on my ride to the tumulous as an event to be remembered. I had never before inspected one of these relics of a long departed race; for I place little eon- fidence in the theory that they are the handi- eraft of the Aborigines inhabiting the Missis- sippi Valley on its diseovery by the whites, who have invariably declared that they know ne- thing even from tradition of their origin. In addition to the gratification I received from a careful inspection of this oue—forty feet high, rising up from the plain, surrounded by a wide diteh or moat fifty feet from its base—in the shape of a cavalier’s hat. I have neither time nor space to speculate on its origin here, and therefore leave the reader to the books for far. ther (and most confounding and inconclusive in all of them) information upon this subject. The view from the top of the mound. though not vast, isa very beautiful one indeed, affording a capital glance of the sinuosities of the river for some twelve miles up anddown. The sil- very stream, fianked ta green b s, 8 mile or two in width, with high hills equally verdure-clad for back grounds, made a magnifi- cent picture truly. The city or town of Marietta—of four or five thousand inhabitants—fo: featare of it, notwithstanding the repu ‘its: first appearance on rising the ri / &y, dirty and mean, as it seem ment’s acquaintance. Off the , as I discovered from the” mou: . built and neat. As seen from that point its ap- pearance was very pleasing, satisfying me that the mass of the crowd on the river bank was un- mistakably composed of first Plateau-ers only. Marietta was the first town in Ohio settled by the English. We left it at 2.30 p. m., on four trains, the throng of excursionists having been visibly increased there. Ourdeparture was at- tended by a much larger portion of thé popula- tian than our reception. evidently second and third Platean-ers in the main, who bade us farewell with cheers, the ladies among them waving their handkerchiefs after us with adieus. Immediately on leaving the station we com- menced ascending to the hgh ground (ridge) at its back, by means of Wye’s tracks for the backing and filling of trains to get them on higher levels without accomplishing space lon- gitudinally. We thus accomplished a very great rise in the distance of a quarter of a mile. Below our elevation the company are prosecu:- ing the work on a tunnel, which will soon obvi- ate necessity for the wyes. From the top of the ridge we descended rapidly to a fruitful and capital agricultural country, much of it evidently newly opened, and all cultivated, 39 far as care and judgment isconcerned, as I wish all farms in our own immediate section were managed. (ur route lays very nearly at right angles from the Ohio, and we are pursuing it leisurely along. the track being too new to al- low of very rapid traveling. At Vincent, thirteen miles from Marictta, we were greeted by a large throng at the stop- ping place, that rushed wildly to the car con- taining the Band, which—while the engine was watering—played a merry tune. I am forcibly struck with the fact that if the Northwestern Virginia road is the underground railroad, (a railroad of tunnels) the Marietta and Chillicothe road is the air-line railroad, for every now and then it hangs suspended in mid air as it were. on tressle work, evidently de- signed to answer but a temporary purpose. In- deed, it is but barely finished to permit it to be used, the company wisely adopting the plan of completing the fills by the use of the rails laid over trestle work, which as their fills (embank- ments) are numerous and heavy, will greatly reduce the cost of the work. One of these tres- sles rises on four tiers 105 feet above the Little Hocking creek (emptying into the Ohio near the foot of Blannahassett’s island below Parkers- burg) and 810 feetin length. We passed through quite a number of tunnels upon this road, and over as many more ; stupendous works still in Progress of construction, over which temporary (almost) surface tracks are laid far above the progressing main work, up which (the grade in such cases always being very steep) the locomo- tive tugs and toils with its precious freight be- hind it, like a faithful servant, working for dear life. At Athens, a town of considerable importance, “set upon the bills,” and contain- ing a University, we were greeted by an im- mense throng of well dressed and intelligent people, who having weleomed us with shouts essayed to “call out’’ (for a speech) various ger- tlemen on the train, but finally compromised for more eloquent sounds from our capital ex- eursion band; the three minutes tor watering being too short a period in which to discourse any other deseription of eloquence whatever. W.D. W—n June 3—104 a.m Ere taking leave of the generous and beauti- ful Chillicothe, the never-to-be-forgotten home of the frank and courtly grandsons, and beauti- ful, graceful and gentle granddaughters of old Virginia, the excursionists were joined by an accession of sufficient souls to require the addi- tion of two more trains to our convoy. Ere we set out, by-the-by, Gen. Cass was called on and greeted by many thousands, among whom were not a few veterans, his cotemporaries and asso- eciates when the youthful and enterprising U.S. Marshal for Ohio, he so impressed his personal influence upon the future of the State as that the tenor of its public history and progress has come to be regarded almost of his own creation. There were three or four thousand of both sexes gathered around the railroad station to witness our departure, whose shouts, cheers, smiles and waving of handkerchiefs, told how enthusiastically they were interested in the fes- tivities of the occasion. Off we started at full speed, to travel in brief time one of the finest upland portions of the State. Leaving the val- ley of the Seioto at Chillicothe we steamed through a level country—a plain for the most part—as regular in appearance as the surface of a billiard table. cultivated; the crops growing on it tell a tale of its fertility which makes it incomprehensible to me how its sons can aban- don it for the further West. Muchof the route, however, was evidently glade-y, and therefore, standing with the original forest upon it. Near Chillicothe I was forcibly impressed with the grace and beauty of the prevailing growth of the region—the elm and the sugar-maple tree, specimens of which, if transplantel to grounds in Enrope or near thé Atlantic te appear as on the estates they are now gracing, would be worth almost their weight in money. At every stopping place we were greeted by hundreds—men, women, and children—and along the road too, our progress was attended and marked by groups of curious inhabitants. who flocked to the bank of the road from miles off, to salute us. This railroad from Chillicothe to Cincinnati is one of the best constructed (and most agreeable to travel) broad guages in the West, over which we have travelled so far. At some of the stopping places on our journey of this morning I heard shouts around the win- dows of the cars of the train behind the one as- signed to us of the press along, who already number over fifty, half being Obioans. They were occasioned by speeches—brief ones of course —from some of the lions of the oceasion. As speeches upon such an occasion, so delivered— per schedule of railroad time table—amount to mere bow-wowing of stereotyped compliments and phrases, I failed to have the curiosity to Proceed to where I could learn even who were the orators. After traveling through a highly cultivated but not remarkably inviting country, for the last thirty miles, between Chillicothe and Cin- cinnati, we reached the latter city at 14 p. m. Here we were received by untold thousands, the military, dc, amig confusion worse ecn- founded. Proceeding through the streets to my hotel, I heard General Cass addressing from the balcony of the Burnett House, a crowd it may be, of ten thousand souls, not one tenth part of whom could possibly com; sword h> uttered. At the Burnett House he was im- mensely lionized by King Demos. 1, iy from Baltimore until this moment the fuyore of popular excitement over his presence, has been as great as I ever saw manifested towards any other than General Jackson, which satisfies mg that he has a deep, strong and wide-spread hold upon the Ameriean public’s heart. I am sure that the old man eloquent must feel pro-, foundly gratified by these demonstrations.
