If, within these limits, i im the time occupied in reading my epistle of rough out- Yes, you but participate in a tithe of the wild excite- ment and continued pleasure which have fallen to our happy lot, in our oceam home, or amid the interesting islands which we have visited, I shall be glad indeed. The rude sketches and delineations of the varied, scenes in which I have participated, I give you in » crude shape, leaving for you, in umagisaiion, to fill the picture which has 80 much pleased me A long preface often bodes a dull letter, amd, for fear that I also may fall into this but 400 common error, let a4 at once commence with the in- eidents of our cruise. We left Hong Kong on the morn- fing of the 22d of March last, The morning was calm and delightful; but belore night we were battling against » strong N. E. monsoon, and making the best of our way to ‘the Pescadore Islands, where we agrived and anchored on the evening of the 27th March. ‘The Pescaderes are a group of islands tributary to hina, lying in the Formosa channel, between Formosa ‘and China. They consist of @ cluster of «mail islands, thinly inhabited. Their formation is very singular. ‘They rise with a gentle sweep from the sea to the height of about 100 feet, and then spread out into broad table lands; and s uniform is this height throughout the whole group, without barely an undulating line, that it appears ay if nature bad, in caprice, adjusted tham all to a uniform standard. The islands are well cultivated, but completely destitute of forests or trees, save near the vil- lages and bamlets, and the general appearance is bleak and sterile, Numbers of hamlets and villages of Chinese dot the seashore, and the harbor in which we anchored was so completely landiocked as to resemble an inland lake. It is large enongh to contain the largest navy in the world; and, although a gale was raging outside, we yode in quiet at our single anchor, with scarce a ripple en the surface of the water. Three of us visited the Governor at Makery, opposite which place we were, and met with a friendly reception, but failed to get any news of the Porpoice, vhich was the object of our visit. Upon Waving, we were saluted by a band of Chinese masic and three guns, (che greatest number ever fired as a salute a.) Ii our stroll through the village we saw Sune worthy of note, except the usual filthiness of Chinese villages, a squahd popwation, quantities of hoge and dogs, aud were followed by a ri erowd, as usual. We gladly left, and returned to the s lp. The following morning we got under weigh in the fice “ N. i gale, and continued on until noon of the follow- making out little headway. We put about ani ge 1G the southward, under sieam and sail, down the t coast of Formosa. By evening it was calm, and we were snugly anchored. [he name Formona, or the Beautiful, is aptly applied to this lovely island. The eeenery along the whole coast iseither higily picturesque or grand and magnificent. Some of tue mountains rear their crests far above the region of clouds, and are ssrowned with sparkling snow. The valleys are rich with Joxu: jant vegetation, tho hill-sides shatowed by magnifi- cent forests, and the plains retlect the varied hues of ex- ‘tensive cultivation. The natives are said to be cannibals, and between them and the Chinese settlers on the coast 'a constant warfare ie waged—the merchant at his deak, the husbaad.aan at his plongh, and the herdsman with his herds, all go armed to prevent surprise frum the foe, who is ever on ‘the alert Er the unsuspecting and unwary. We stopped at two places, but no tidings of the Porpoise were ob- tained, and now all hopes fur the ill-tated brig are aban- doned,and ler fate will ever remain @ mystery, We sailed down the coast, rounded the south cape, aud after Teaching the port where we had last been on our voyege down from Shanghae, we stood over towards Great Loo hoo, and unchoved in the roads of Napa Kiang on the afternoon of the 9th April. the remarkable beauty of the island of Great ‘00 Choo, as seen. when approachiag from the weet, cannot fuil to strike the most casual ob- server; and dull, indeod, must the appreciation of pic- furesque scenery be in,lim who does not at once ex- claim: “How enchantthg! how beautiful!’ The whole scene is charming, lovely und picturesque, and the island apjcars a perfect paradise, Ricing with a gcadual ascent, or sweeping in graceful undulations fyom the sea shore, the Jans rises in the interfor 10 the height of about 500 feet—its summit varying from three to five miles dis tant in the interior, with scarcely a hill of any mi nitude on the island.

At the sume time tho Russian frigate Diana ‘was torn from her anchors, and left completely to the mercy of the waves, which #0 injured her that she tually sunk—but not before everytting was landed. From the effects of this severe and awfat visitation, the ce is now alowly recovering, and. bids fair ere long to whatit once was. The objection to harbor is, that it is too open in one direction to ‘ane bea, and, at times, unsafe. The low level plain on which Simoda ix built, is but a few feet above the level of the water, and ‘is at the entrance of a beautiful valley, sur: rounded by hills, and amid beautiful scenery. As the town now is, there is but little in it or its appear- ance deserving of especial notice. ‘The houses, which are of one and two stories, are built of wood and stune, on wide parallel streets, crossed by others at right angles. ‘The fronts of the houses and rooma are enclosed by slid- ing frames, covered with a thin white paper, which an- swers in the place of glass, By means of these, the whole house can be thrown into one room, or divided into several, as the case may be. The floors are laid with musts resoarabid fies abel cleariiogsas waster. of aio great diftculty to keep them so, aa the people all leave their shoes at the entrance; an air of neatuess and good taste ia observed in all their household arrangements, The people are affable and kind, and we entered their ely and were always welcome. ‘Lhe inmates, penpals and female, would converse as best they could by means of broken Knglish and signa. The peovle are by no means shy; still they do not evince that ile curi- onity so annoying among the Chinese. Ta cur walks we were neither molested or followed, but received and gave respectful salutes from and to al), and we were come and go, while we could not observe that we ed any more attention than we would with our uniforms in apy village in the United States. Many of the eommon words of our language are well known and usod by all clusses ot people, and their eagerness to learn is only ex- celled by the readiness with whfch they acquire tne meaning of words and a remarkably correct pronuncia- tion. Numbers carry a book, and any new word is im- mediately entered in it, but not until it 1s fully compre- hended by them; and, ‘probably, a few days after, in meeting the same person, he will ‘aake use of the words you have taught him, and inyuire it he has used them in their proper signification. In our conduct towards all classes we have endeavored, dy mildness and gentlemanly behavior, to impress them with a fivorable opinion of Americans, in which, [ trust, we have not failed, In so doing, we have ucted in pre- cisely the same manner as the offivers of the Japan squad- Ton, and as tar as external evidence exists, we have suc- ceeded in our object. The nawe of Americe is expected by all classes of people and welcomed as friends. A thing which I have never before observed among the nations of the Fast, I ncticed in Simoda. I have seen men and women reepectfully salute each other, and was 4o struck With it that I called the attention of others to the fact. The men have more intell-ctual faces than the Chinese, and frorts cur intercourse with them they appear to be a superior rece. The women are nearly as fate as Europo- ans, with roay cheeks and lips, beautiful teeth, sparcling black eyes, haudsome eyebrows, luxuriant hair, aud, though ‘short, good figures. After marriage the eye- brows are shaven and the teeth dyed black. This, of course, detracts materially from their beauty. The wo- men are not kept sectaded, but are as free as in any clvi- lized country. Icould not but be struck by the great revolution that has been effected withia the last two tare, 7"The manner with which atrangera wore once recotved and treated, you well know was neither courteous nor gentle; but now with us how changed! We came ta and Anchored, and the authorities welcomed us to the port. No coneourse of bouts surrounded our ship; no files of armed soldiers paraded on the shore; no battery pointed its guns at us; on shore no spy watched our wotlons or our actions; no one dogged our footsteps; but we were as free as if we were in our native lind, Not to us alone was this treatment observed, but all who arrive! in or belonged to the C. E, Fuute, were treated ina like man- ner. Now mark the éiiference of treatment observed to- wards others, The irench steim frigate Colvert and frigate Constantine aciived here a short time siace, ‘They were immesiately surrounded with boats, no com- munication permitted with the shore, ant «uppites were denied them. ‘Their communications were forwarded to Jeddo, and they were then ordered to Nagasaki to await the replies of, the Emperor. ‘They accordingly aniled to that place without effecting a single ohjec' of their visit. ‘A bazaar of Japauece articles was opened; the disylay was mogvificent. I made some purchases at first, and every subsequent visit found me retiring with something, We went down to a plaice called Hade, 40 miles distant, to offer our services to the remaining oificers and crow ofthe Diana, While there we saw the lutent volsano of Fuse Yarne, the highest mountain in Javan. Its alti- tude is 12,000 feet. or over two miles.

Evey more thay this: their knowledge of the statistics of thé Various parts of the cfvilized world {5 not far behind tne actaal fact. ‘Were I to write you in detail the wonderful things that we have met wiih ia this coatry, Lcoud almost all a volume, and must, therefore, leave unwritten mach of the minor details, and lecve for you to imagine from the facts which I give what the rest must be.

Weosmpay, Nov. 7—6 P.

All the leading fancies were out ingreat force to-day, and the seliers put out contracts freely at current rates, We notice unusually large sales of Nicaragan Tran- sit ut the first board to-day. The full in this stock has been equal to about thirty-five per cent within the past four weeks, and it strikes.us that about the lowest level thas been reached. At the present market value of the stcen the entire property of the company would be re- duced to about one million of dollars. This stuck is now a0 low that amy advance is a Jarge per cent on the investment. Erie was the greatcard to-day. Nearly four thoussnt shares were sold. Reading was brought out in large Jota, but was pretty well sustained. At the first board, Indiana 5’s declined 34 per cent; Virginia 6’s, 1; Misx- souri 6's, 34; Erie bonds, 1875, 1; Thicago and Rock Island bonds, 34; Cumberland Coal, 34; Chicago and Rock Isiand Railroad, 44; Erie, 4; Michigan Central, 34. Pennsylva- nia Coal advanced 2 per cent; Reading Railroad, 1{; Ga- lena and Chicago, 34; Cleveland and Toledo, 4. Be‘ore the close Erie rallied a little, and was a fraction better. New York Central was quoted at 85 per cent. At the second board there was a very decided improve ment in Reading, but the sales were only to a moderate extent. Erie also was better. There was not a large business in any stock, and we attribute the advance en- tirely to a demand from the short interest. Virginia 6's advanced }¢ per cent; Illinois Central bonds, 3¢; Cum- berland, %; Reading Railroad; 2%; Erie, 134; Michigan Southern, 3. linoia Central stock fell off 3 per cent. Nicaragua closed without change. Any per- maxent improvement in stocks is utterly out of the question. We may have occasional reactions after a steady decline of some days, but the clementa of specula- tion are so completely scattered that some time must elapse before the individuals who have been so tho- roughly cleaned out by the latedepreciation will be in a condition to enter the market again as buyers. Hereto- fore the market has depended on them for support, ani must agaia. It is not an easy matter to build up a new class of speculators with sufficient capital to carry such loads of stock as must be laid aside to get up any kind of an inflation. The season, the times, the future, all are de- cidediy against any important or permanent improve- ment in stocks. ‘The steamship Africa, from Boston for Liverpool to-day, carried out $875,000 in specie.

Everybody knows this, The distance from Albany to Buffalo is 207 miles, ani the lines of road forming the New York Ceatcal Compyny cost the present stockholders nearly forty millions of dol ‘ars. The through line is only 297 miles long, and only that length of road is required to do the through and loca! business, but the “grand consolidating clique” man- aged, by getting hold of roads runnivg north and south east and weet, and by doubling the track on a part of the through line, to increase the length of road *0 562 miles. ‘The average cost for the whole length is, according to the report for 1856, about $70,000 per mile. If we take even this extravagant cost per mile as data, a direct road from Albany to Buffalo would cost only $20,000,009; but noone doubts that a railroad from (he North river to Lake Erie. along the latitude of the Central, could be constructed for lese than $60,000 per mile, The average cost of the Michigsn Southern, Galena and Chicago, Erie and Cleve land, Buffalo and Erie, is about $26,000 per mile, At the same cost per mile the New York Central cyull haye been built for $7,500,000; double that for a double track and we have $16,C00,000—but little more than one-thiy of the present reported cost of the line now in operat § The New York Central has no extensive or expeusi depots, There is hardly a railroad m the country not better proviced with local faciliies for doing business.

It is pretty certain that up to this tline not much of the $40,000,000 expeat ed by the Central Company lias gone into depots, and (9 bulk of tha’ enormous sum ia represented by several he. dred miles of (Mapidated and rapialy decaytog track. 1 equipments are all secont and third rate, and nea every Western railroad of any exteat is better provided with facili ies for doing its business than the New York Cen’ The “ exceedingly ample und valuable real estate it owns fram Baffalo harbor ty the Albany basin’ is composel principally of the land vpon which the rails are laid, or what fs known as tue right of way. ‘Tbe company have an elevator or 89 0: Boffalo, ordinary depots at Rochester, a few acces of randy plain near Schenectady, and a few lots, wi. out buildings, at Albany.
