Following up the subject of overcrowding the streot cars, a reporter was instructed to spend a daf on the Eighth avenue street car line, and note themumbers travelling on the cars at various hours in the day, as In the case of the Third avenue line, a description of which appeared in the Hxgatp some time ago. From the report given below it will be seen that there is a marked difference between the Third and Eighth ave- nue routes in the manner of packing the cars. While, morning and evening, the cars of the former line on the east side are sweat boxes into which as high as 70 to 90 passengers are crammed by enter- prising conductors, on the latter line (owing to the completion of the New York Elevated Railroad through to Central Park) the company have no chance to pack passengers, for the simple reason that they cannot get enough to fill their cars, except now and then, The relation of rapid transit to the solving of the question of “how to stop the overcrowding of cars” is an in- teresting one. ‘ MORNING TRAVEL SOUTHWARD. Account made of 18 cars arriving at the Fiftieth street depot from points above, between half-past seven and cight o’clock, showed that during the half hour but 121 passengers were carried. Six of the cars arrived empty, 3 of them with but 2 passengers ried 2 with 8 each, 2 with 4; 2 cars filled, 6 had 1 passenger each standing. id 1 car contained 10 on the platforms and straps. Tho few cars that contained a full complement of pas- sengers were from McComb’s Dam and Manhattanville. Persons familiar with the traflic on the road before the opening of the Elevated Raijiroad to the Park report that the downward bound cars used to be well filled and more or less overcrowded. fhe above figures show very conclusively that the steam line on Ninth avenue is destined to relieve Eighth avenue of the great bulk of travel except for local or short trips. Careful counts were made of the cars at various points south of the depot, and the fact was established beyond a doubt that even for that distance tho Kle- vated Railroad 1s a powerful competitor of the Eighth avenue horse car line. The following are the figures at various hours of the morning:— No. of No. in No, Cars. Cars.

M. is heavier than the down travel in the morning, ag Fath by the counts of 41 cars that carried 158 persons, 339 of whom were standing Counts of 80 cars between six and seven P. M. showed an average of 30 to the car. The highest number was at a quarter-past si: when one car into Hudson strect with J4 in seats, 19 standi inside and 17 on the platform, making a total ol 60 in the car, After half-past six the mob dimin- ished gradually until seven o'clock, when nearly all the passengers could find seata. On’ the morning runs southward the travel is chiefly below Twenty-third street. The cars starting trom and arriving at the cor- ner of Canal street and Broadway are generally well filled morning and evening. Conductors on the Ii report that since the Elevated Railroad has reached tl Park travel between there and Twenty-third street has fallen off fully seventy per cent, while they estimate the total decrease in the company’s business owing to the construction of the road at forty per cent These facts and figures clearly show that rapid transit steam roads are cures for overcrowding on the horse cars, and all who are interested in getting seats will bail with joy the proposed construction on Third avenue next summer of a double track steam road by the New York Elevated Railroad Company. RAPID V8. CROWDED TRANSIT. The better to illustrate the manner in which the horse cars have been relieved of the crowding 1n early travel southward, we give @ comparative statement on 18 cars on the Third and Kighth avenues, re- spectively. It will be seen the Third avenue cars car- ried 942 more passengers than the same number of Eighth avenue cars, in the same time, So much for rapid transit on the West side as a relief in the way of overcrowding :— THIRD AVENU RIGHTH AVENUE, B, No.of Arriving at No.of Arriving at Third an, Car, 08d st or 50th st - over 8th av. ll e 1. 3 66 2 3 ot 54 2 23 46 4 a 51 oO a6 60 3 48 67 3 67 61 23 “4 53 0 63 85 2 53 7” 2 72 60 0 58 1 87 od 22 46 2 ° 2 7m 0 n 65 19 36 7 4 3 Totals, . .1,057 121 o42 CROSS TOWN TRAVEL. THE MASSING OF HUMANITY ON THE GRAND AND DESBROSSES STREET FERRY LINE, One of the most crowded cross town lines is the branch of the Dry Dock, East Broadway and Battery Railroad, running trom Grand street ferry, through Grand, Vestry and Desbrosses streets, to the ferry on the North River. While the company have an abun- dance of cars and a large number of surplus horses, lit tle or no effort is made to accommodate the streams of humanity that morning and evening flow into their cars from the ferries on ‘either river and the main lines of horse cars which’ they intersect. The heavy travel of tho morning begins about six o'clock at the foot of Grand street, where the thousands of working men and women residing in ‘the Eastern District of Brooklyn cross over vo their places of business. From six o'clock until nine it is a rare thing to finda car bound for the North River that is not packed to more than double its seating capacity with a class who must reach their working places on time THR MORNING TRAVEL, A Hxratp reporter recently counted the cars on this line morning and evening, and found them very heavily overcrowded, The first count of 21 cars was, from six to seven o'clock A.

The conductor admitted, when asked, that he had 75 on ti car. Crowded as was this car, the driver stopped at nearly every crossing a crowded in by the front platform, on which the reporter stood, all who offered, When remonstrated with he said, “Oh, there’s room for a dozen more.” At time there were 72 on the car. At Eldridge street 2 got off, when he took in 4 Iadies and 1 map, making the number in the car after 2 had left 76, 53. of whom were standing. Similar experiences were had on other cars of the line. In another car 77 were found, in sev- eral over 70, and in a large number between 60 and 70. Between eight and nine A. M. 20 cars counted showed a Slight failing off tn the number foreed to stand.

The Belt line, aw the road is called that runs along the river fronts and through Fifty-ninth street, is one of the most important in the city; yet the cars are filthy, the ventilation intolerable and tho stock very poor. It is chiefly patronized by the laboring classes, stevedores, sailors, "longshoremen and others having business about the piers, the warehouses and factories that skirt the city. During the morning and evening it is well patronized by a class of honest toilers chiefly, and the cars are very much overcrowded. *They are run from two to three minates apart, and between six and eight A. M. and six and half-past seven P. M. the down and up cars, ive) about thirty per cent more than seats are saan for.

They ran from two totwo anda half minutes apart, The count was as follows :— gt per car of 22 seated and 30 standing, ‘afer even there is bat little northern bound travel, and many of the cars will not take in more than 60 {ares on the round trip. “NO SEATS NO FARES.” BROADWAY AND UNIVERSITY PLACE LINE UNDER THE TEST OF A COUNT. One of the best roads in the city, as far as cleanli- hess and ventilation of the cars are concerned, is the Broadway and University Place Railroad; yet the com- pany, morning and evening, do not run sufficient cars to accommodate the travel Superintendent Ledbetter reports that they run their cars between eight and a quarter to cleven A. M. on one minute headway; then, until half-past two, on two minutes headway, and after that hour, until the northern bound “rush” is over, on one minute headway. The company run 72 cars daily between the Astor House and the depot and 20 between the depot and Broadway and Broome street, In jus- tice to the management it is proper to say that they have a class of conductors who are polite and attentive to the wants of passengers, The only fault with them is that they are compelled to pack too closely, The travel above the Fiftieth streot depot Is very slight between seven and eight o’clock in the evening. A count of 84 cars showed but 443 persons on them during those hours. THR MORNING TRAVEL SOUTHWARD.

THE BODY OF SIGNOR KELLER REDUCED TO ASHES—A DI§TINGUISHED CONGREGATION PRESENT DURING THE FIRE PROCESS, The Milan (Italy) newspapers of January 26 publish detailed accounts of the cremation of tho body of Signor Keller, a notice of which has already been given by cable, The ceremony appears to have attracted mach attention, and a great number of persons were invited to be present Among those who attended were representatives of the municipality of Milan, of the provincial and communal sanitary councils, of the learned and scientific professions, together with many distinguished members of Milanese society, and Pro- feasors Polli and Clericetti, the inventors of the sys- tem of cremation employed.

VALENTINE.” APPROACH OF THE ANNIVERSABY OF CUPID AND THE IDES OF HYMEN—VALENTINE'S DAY In THE OLDEN TIME. On Monday all maidens and youths who have ra, ceived reciprocal wounds from the arrows of Oupid an@ wha view the possibility of having to light Hymen’s torch, will celebrate the birthday of St Valentine Though the times are hard and money scarce, the de- mand is greater this year than ever for these missives of love or courtesy. For let it be understood that all valentines which pass through the post on Valentin Day do not betray a feeling of love, mor do they alwayg indicate a motive of courtesy. Malicious people who have fancied spites or wrongs to avenge and who are desirous of being ‘‘even,” seize the occasion of this ancient and honored festival of St, Valentine to have a laugh at those whom they may dishke. The letter carriers who are on duty on St. Vatentine’s Day will be worked very bard in the delivery of love's misstves, and, no matter how cheerfully thoy are received on other days in the year, this is the one day on which a specially gratefulsmile is sare to greet them, The erigin and cause of the Fourth of July and Washington's birthday are very well known to the Amer can people, yet of the 40,000,000 who are approach- ing Centennia! Day with fervent hope and gladness how few consider the derivation of St. Valentine’s Day! In the old, proud days of Rome, when the Republic had become distasteful to the mob, no festival was more honored than that of the Lupercalia, which was cele- brated on the Lupercal Mount during several deys in the middle of February. This festival had a ceremony which was the foundation of St Valentine’s Day. Young women who were desirous of gaining beaux had their names placed in a box, and the young men who desired the love of the maidens drew their names b; chance and selected thetr mates, The bishops an fathers of the early Charch found it needful to obliter- ate these pagan eustoms afterward; but St. Valentine, a priest of the Church, was born on the 14th of Febru- ary, and his connection with the nomenclature of the day is very slight. Born on that day, he was selected as the patron of dist and anguished couples, and his memory is kept green forever by them.

The commerce tn valentines is something incalcu- lable, and, as we have mentioned before, the hard times do not affect the trade. Men and women will fall in love and marry and be given in marriage, although bread be dear and rents be at the maximum. A Her- ALD reporter waited on Fisher, the well known valentine manufacturer, No. 98 Nassau street, yesterday, to as- certain from him how valentines were made and what were the newest fashions in those delectable missives of love. Mr, Fisher, whose house has been for fort; years engaged im- this trade, durin; whi time tney have turned out over 100,000,000 of valentines, said to the reporter:—*We have a different style of valentine now altogether from those usod in the old tinfe. The war has brought luxury in its train and the public demand a finer article, and our artists’ brains are racked to please a difficult public. We have them from two cents to $50 and $100, and all the high priced valentines this year seem to be of a white or bridal color, in boxes. Everything ts in bridal fashion and suggestive of the possibilities of the lover’s final intentions. Then we are compelled to make bouquet valentines in that shape which opens and dis- closes vines, birds, mottoes and portraits of a fanciful nature, Then there is the basket of flowers, also a new thing, which is considered en régle by tashionable peo- ple.

CHARITIES AND CORRECTION. The Commissioners of Charities and Correction have passed a resolution to appropriate a sum of money, not exceeding $500, for dispensing medical relief to the poor of the city, above Harlem Bridge. Two patients attempted to escape from the Ward's Island Lunatic Asylum, by swimming the East River, but were recaptured. MUNICIPAL NOTES. ° Mayor Wickham yesterday sent back to the clerk of the Board of Aldermen without his signature the ordinance for preventing non-residents from holding office in this city.
