The route from New York to St. Louis by the way of | Philadelphia, Baltimore, Cumberland, and Pittsburgh, | is 1,726 miles, and the fare $31. The incidental expenses on this route are about $10,total cost $41. ‘The route by | the Lakes, and to cross Michigau to St. Louis, 1,452 miles and the expense about $36. By the Lakes, the traveller can reach St. Louis in eight days, whereas it will take him twelve days at least to go by the southern route Ono night in Philadelphia, one in Baltimore, one in going by stage over the Alleghany mountains, one in Pittsburg, and if the passage from Pittsburg to St. Louis is taken first to Cincinnati, it will cost another night | there, and the expense will be $2 more for fare. Those | per who are fond of good water, and wish to avoid ‘he cholera morbus, will of course go the northero route. The water on this route is only fit for poisonin, alligators, andthe beef, such at I we had on boart these floating palaces, is quite rT owing, no doubt, to the fuct that th boats, three hundred of which are to be on Ohio, buy the cheapest article they can find to feed | their hungry passengers. Provisions generally, how- ever, are plenty and good, but the cooking is most exe- cral I been assured by the person who keeps the locks at Louisville, on the Ohio, that the steamers make about two thou: nd p ges through them in one on. —- This allows ofabout three hundred steamboats at six passages to a boat, and all these filled with freight and passengers! ‘There is not on the whole length of the Ohio (1000 miles) one sail boat with a mast of any des- cription to be seen. Pittsburg is a dirty looking thriving town, with a moat interesting surrounding country. ‘The coal hills around this place are a great curiosity. After passing over the Allegany mountains, land which is in general good. sells from $20 to $100 per acre. The sites for towns or farms along the sluggish dark Ohio are beautiful in the ex- treme, but there is nothing inthe west that I have yet seen to bear any comparison with West Point or Lake George scenery. The women outin these diggings look cadaverous, and unhealthy, and the men are mostly living skeletons. (started out one morning in Cincinnati, where I stopped four days, tofind a fat men, and after pessing througl ee- veral streets without success, met a porter, of whom I inquired for one. “A fat man,” saidhe! ‘What in the { St.Buckeye do you want with a fat man ?’— name of St. “Why,” said I, “the people are all so lean, that my cu- riosity leads me to find a fat person. “ You are on your way to the grave yard,” said he ; “you may find one to suit you there, forall the fat men die offin hot weather, leaving the lean ones behind.” The gambling system is mostly broken up on these wes- tern waters, but pickpockets and thieves are very abun- dant. A gentleman bad his gold watch and $300 in mo- ney taken night before last from under his head as he slept. The country about Cincinnati is beautiful in the ex- treme, and the city itself is going to be the Queen of the West, should St. Louis not get ahead of her in wealth and population. Covington and Newport, two towns in Kentucky, opposite Cincinnati, are beautifully and ro- mantically situated. The United States have a recruit- ing station at Newport. ‘he children in the West are either taught to be im- pertinent, or are naturally 60. A chap of about 9 years of age, at the Broadway Hotel, Cincinnati, was taking a slice from a luncheon table, when a gentleman observed in a good humored manner, ‘Don’t hurt yourself, my ine a re Stop your damned jaw,” was the lad’s very po- ite reply ! Theard the keeper of a Kentucky prison say that he would cut any man into pieces, even in Cincinnati, that would attempt to take a slave from him that he might have arrested, and added, with a great boast, that “two Kentuckians were at any time able to whip three north- ern men,” and wished to have an opportunity to cut the throats of all the abolitionists in the United States, and that he would employ the largest and sharpest bowie knife in Kentucky or Arkansas to do the business. Ar- thur Tappan and his friends would stand a poor chance with a fellow like this. The people of Kentucky have, however, been much imposed on by the abolitionists of Ohio, and justly feel sore on the question of slavery. We are now within a few miles of the Mi: ppi, and the Ohio enlarges to about the size of thi udson a Newburgh, being quite a narrow stream from the mouth of the Tennessee to Pittsburg. The Columbia is a steam- er of about an average size, converting about 140 gal- lons of water into steam every hour—high pressure, as are all the other boats on these waters. Her power is about sixty horse, and she can be driven at the speed of ten miles per hour. The Ohio is now in fine navigable condition. The Herald has a ready sale to travellers in the Wes- tern towns, at 12} cents cost, daily number. Preparations are now making in the West toinvade Mexico, and the feeling is so strong that the general Government will have «mall influence in attempting to stop any expedition that may be got up for that purpose. orty thousand men ganbe had from the valleys of the Ohio and Mi ‘ippi, independent of the floating popu- lation of the Atlantic cities, who would willingly share in the produce of the 26° Mexican mines, producing cwenty millions of dollars per annum, and the two hun: dred millions of gold and silver in the bosom of the shurch, and coffers of the é The territory of Mexico, between the Guadaloupe mountains and eras of Mexico, 750 by 160 miles, is one of the finest countries on earth, and will shortly, by the consent vf the inhabitants, be in possessiun of the Anglo-Saxon race, which is destined to cover the whole country, as ‘ar Southas the Isthmus of Panama. Send all your ‘loating population, Illinois and uri,every man with iis rifle or musket on his shoulder, and his fortune will be made in both money and land. All gra f officers will be appointed from active, brave, intelligent young men. ‘The time is now arrived to convert that country to it an efficient and stable to ita proper use, by giving government.

Schinley, his wi id descr: the residence of the latter. The toubtless recollect the romantic elopement,at the board- ing school, in New York, some four years since, and the 4reat excitement which then prevailed throughout the country, in consequence of a young Misa of fifteen falling in Jove, and eloping with (as the press then declared) au wld man of fifty years, who proved to be an English fticer.

As time wore away it only sharpened the memery of the past, and he kindly wrote to have her re- urn. ‘Instead of complying with his request, her ausband (Captain Schinley, whose name ought to have een before mentioned) forwarded to Col. C., his father oy the laws of America, a full length portrait of himseli and young wife. The result of the gift together with the announcement that Col.

Tue Express "Ronpery—One Tuovsanp Dot- Lars Rewaxp.—We stated yesterday that Living- #ton & Wells's express had been robbed the eveni: previous, at the railroad depot. We have since learne further particulars. It appes made up at the office by Mr. Mr. Powell, the messenger,at the usual time in the even- ing. Between ten and half past, all the baggage and the money trunk were taken to the ‘depot by these gentle- —. The baggage was placed in the car and lock- ed up. Mr. Powell placed his money trunk in the passenger car, on the seat he intended to occupy, locked the door, and stood conversing forsome minutes with Mr. Hast- ings, by the window, where he had a full view of the trunk.” He then stepped into the ticket office, to pay a freight bill, where he remained not over two minutes ; and when he returned the trunk was gone. All the doors of the building were immediately closed, and a thorough search made. Information was immediately given to the police, and every javenue of the city was watched until morning, to discover if the robber left town. Fortunately the amount of money from this city was not large—not exceeding $4000. The Commercial Bank jost two packages—one containing $1950, in bills, and the other $255. . Talman lost about $265. ‘The remainder belonged to private individuals. It is feared that the trunk ccntained a large amount of funds from Buffalo. A reward of $500 was offered by the agent here, for the recovery of the trunk. The dispatch with which this robbery was committed may be Jearned from the fact that fastings left the depot abvut the same time Powell stepped into the tick- et office, and had only reached the Mansion House when a ‘messenger overtook him, informing him of the the! The locks onthe passenger cars are of simple construction, and the thief probably found no difficulty in opening the door witha false key. The North side of the depot is usually dark, and quite favorable to the es- cape of @ rogue without being observed. ». S. The advices from Butlalo, received yesterday af- ternoon, render ree thatthe amount of money lost is about $30,000. The only information received concerning the robbery is the statement of a passenger, who upon entering the car saw a man coming out with a small trunk under his cloak. He was accompanied by a short man with n grey overcoat on. Both passed out of the Eastern end of the depot. Mr. H. J. Hastings has offered a reward of $1000 for tine recovery of the trunk and money.—Rochester Demo- erat, Oct. 25. The Buffalo Pilot of Saturday say Hastings, the agent, and “We have made diligent inquiry, here, touching the possible loss, and give as the result the following, which we cannot suppose a perfect list,though it is all we have ascertained :— H.

The discus- ion took place on an amendmont offered by Alderman J ith, to refer the whole subject back for the re- consideration of the same special committee.

Arthur Mulholland and Patriek Regan were each sentenced to the Eastern Penitentiary for four years, by Judge Parsons, on Saturday, in Philadelphia, for the murder of John Burns, in April last. They had been convicted of murder in the second degree, the crime having been perpetrated in the course of an affray,in hot blood. The trial of Andrew P. Potter, for the murder of Lucius P. Osborn, was commenced on Thursday at New Haven. Most of the day was consumed in obtaining « jury, those being rejected who declared that they had formed opinions from what th read of the case in the newspapers. One man was sensible enough to s9; that he had formed an opinion, but considered himsel still perfectly open to conviction by evidence; and the court very properly held him to be competent. Gov. Owsley, of Kentucky, has appointed Thurs- day, the 20th of November, fora general thanksgiving. Some of the persons who a few weeks since mur- dered Mr. Selby, in Mountain Township, Washington county, Ark , have been arrested, and are now in con- tinement. The guilty persons are named Burney, or Burnet, and consist of the father, mother, brother, and sister of one family ; another young fellow of the same family, who was also concerned in the murder, has made his escape to Texas, but three men were in pursuit ofhim. The object of the murder was robbery. Tur Porato Rot.—We are sorry to state that the failure of the crop in this vicinity is much more ex- tensive than last year.

Pouce, Irems.—A preliminary examination was held before the magistrates, in relation to the charge reported in yesterday's Herald, as having been made against Mr. Van Alstyne, a highly respectable and wealthy resident of Brooklyn, for a constructive grand larceny.
