WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. ——o—— Sxetcuzs oy Suman Taava. (Editorial Correspondence of The Star.) {No.6} July 30, 1260. Tas Cuszat Riven Recion—Tux Jovurnsy Downs tas Mountaits, &c. ‘The train is again in motion. Afier leaving the tressel work, enjoying a mile or two more of Cheat river ylews and passing through a series of stupenduous cuts, we again course a compara- tively somewhat less broken and glady country until we reach Kingwood tunnel, and, as we are about to enter it, I am forced to lay aside the pencil for the time being. The train has now just emerged from it. Its length is seven-eighths of amile. On entering it, its darkness of death was but dimly relieved by the light of the car’s lamp, lit for that Purpose. The air in it was perhaps ten degrees cooler than out of it, and the Passage through it was made in perhaps five minutes. As an engineering achievement, it ranks deservedly the first in the world, of modern ‘umes. Another short tunnel is soon afterwerds traversed. It is cut through solid rock for the most part, and thus presents a natural cavern-like appearance different from that of the interior of ‘he other tunnels previously traversed this morn- ing. The density of the foliage upon the moun- tain sides and the absence of clearings after leav- ing this last mentioned tunnel, obstructs the views for some miles. The run of the grade has changed, and we are now journeying not so swiftly the mountains to Grafton. Deep rock cuts are fre- quent. At Newburgh we pass through a snug village In a mountain gorge, with every sign of Shrifty business life about it. A stream, Raccoon creek, is close by our side on the south, and the debouch of a coal mine with its train-rail track ‘sathand. The business of that mine doubtless gives life to the village aforesaid, as well as to another—Independence—close at hand, and per- ‘uaps larger. Journeying on for some miles further west, with frequent crossings of the Raccoon, nothing strikes me in the scenery as worth par- ticular description, though were it anywhere but on this line of so stupendous wonders and strik- ing sights, it would doubtless soon become famous. The appearance of the country on both sides of the road continues much the same to Grafton, though we puss Thornton, a well built village, the result of the erection of many saw mills upon Three-forks creek, now a considerable stream, the swollen waters of which rush rapidly along the rail track, and at very near its level. We tarry at Grafton for dinner—and a capital one mine host gave us, too. The host of a rail- road dining house whe thus deals fairly by bis guests on compulsion, as we all are, under the penalty of going hungry, fairly deserves canoni- zation. Grafton is the point of junction with the Virginia Northwestern railroad to Parkersburg, the Baltimore and Ohio railroad’s most important western connection. Here they have extensive machine shops and other paraphernalia, and a con- siderable inland town has Sprung up in conse- quence of its business at this point, which, with the coal trade centering here, is very great. From Grafton west we keep among the mountain spurs, descending them far more gradually than was our ascent of them from Piedmont to Altamont. The settlements for some miles west of Grafton are few, along the line of the railroad, unsubdued nature being left for the most part entirely in Sway, apparently. At Grafton we struck the val- ley river, a considerable one, at its falls six miles farther west. The scenery after passing the natural dam at the head of the falls becomes more Picturesque, as the broad expanse of the rapidly rushing sr below, opens wider expanses of THE EVENING STAR. rr {> That valuable and popular famtly journal, the Wrexcr Stan, full as usual of Metropolitan news and gossip, and choice literary reading, is now on our counter ready for delivery to the pub- lic.

Siortly after Passing Nuzum’s Mills we see palpablé proof that we have accomplished a considerable descent from the Alleganies’ sum- mits, in the taller and more vigorous corn planted in the much wider and more frequent expanses of opened lands successively coming into view, and orchards of sturdy trees tell of the much longer cultivation of the region than a few miles above. A mile or two ere teaching Fairmont the rallroad crosses the Monongalia, just below the valley river's junction with it; the passage across being made over a light but very staunch bridge. The Monongalia (on the southern bank of which we enter Fairmont) is a noble stream indeed, ap- parently as broad as the Potomac just above the MMME Pulls, Oue vf tie Muvet euspeucsive bridges (for ordinary travel) stretches across the noble river here, and is an object of great interest to the traveler per rail through this old Virginia town, the chief importance of which grows out of coal mining operations in its vicinity. At Fairmont we bade good-bye to our new but very agreeabl: acquaintance, the Monongalia river, as our course thence west lays up one of its tributaries, Buffalo creck for some miles, and through a rougher coun- try than we have traveled of late. The sides of the creek soon, however, become highly-cultivated farms, pleasant indeed to behold. On reaching Mannington, a village, 141 miles west of Cumber- land, we seem to have gotten fairly out of the range of the Alleganies’ spurs, around and among which we have been coursing to-day up to that point. From there west both sides of the railroad seem to be cultivated for the most part even up to the peaks of the still considerable mountains skirting the valley of very unequal width. Ata point on the road the train stopped to per- mit the passengers to step into a large roadside log house, inbabited by the family of perhaps the oldest man living; of course an object of great curiosity to the traveling public. His age is 109 . years, and his wife, two years his junior only, died on Friday last. Though nearly blind, and within the last three weeks having lost much of his remaiping strength, he conversed with fair average intelligence fora superannuated person. Up toa mouth since, he never knew the time when hecouid not get about conveniently—walk- ing often, until then, a mile and back ata time. His two-story cabin or log house was evidently built when molestation by Indians was not unfre- quently the lot of the settlers hereabovt ; for he has been sixty-seven years a resident west of the Alleganies. At his farm we are on the waters of Fishing creek, which we are to follow for miles, crossing itin the first six miles nine times, and traversing six tunnels in that distance; so the country bere is evidently as rough as any on the whole route of the road, if its mountains are not very stupendous. One of the tunnels mentioned above (carrying us through underneath a consid- erable mountain spur) is apparently half a mile in length, being next to Kingwood tunnel, the largest we have passed through to-day. On this part of the route the grades vary frequently and suddenly; that one iupmediately up to the tuanel I refer to being a ninety-feet up grade, while that meton leaving it isas steep a down grade. On the whole, | have traveled h little territory than this, to-day, oe eietierse senting more difticulties of eng! in the Construction of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. After traversing a tuanei some thirty miles east of Wheeling we suddenly came into a much less broken, and much more generally cultivated cotintry, which soon brought us to the thrifty village of Cameron, a pessing point for the trains going East and West, where we stopped five minutes. The appearance of the farms around it, covered with ripe and cut grain, varied the scene agreeably, as I confess to have seen enough mountain scenery since entering the cars this forenoon, at Cranberry Summit, to suffice the eye for one day at least.

They executed first the Scott and Hardee infantry movements, which they followed up by the pecu- liar exercise of the Zouave corps. After the con. clusion of the drill, the Zouaves were escorted to the Assembly Rooms, where a collation awaited them. On this occasion complimentary spceches ‘were made, which were replied to by Col. Elis. worth on behalf of the visiting corps, in which reply he most cordially acknowledged the warm reception the company had met with. He com_ pizined, however, of the act of the Philadelphia aod Wilmington Railroad Company, who bad crowded the whole company, band and all, on the road between Pbtladeiphia and Baltimore, into 4 single car. “During yesterday morning the Zouaves pessed round Baltimore inspecting its many objects of interest, aud in the afteraoon drilled at the terminus of the Madison railway route.
