National Hotel, Frederick street, t August 28th, 1829 j I left Basel on Saturday morning and said farewell to Switzerland perhaps for ever. I took a ticket to Mannheim and intended to sail down the Rhine river to Cologne, but I noticed on the map that I was aa far from Cologne as from Mann- heim. I therefore altered my eourse and went by rail from Mannheim to Frankfurt. Sixteen years ago I was in Mannheim, butit is so much improved since then that I would not have known. it. A great many buildings have been erected since then, especially in the,tast few years. At present many grand buildings are being erected, Which would be very imitable for our American cities, as they build more substantial and beau. tiful hero. There are many million. aim here who are engaged in manatee. turing. The city of Ludwigshafen is situated on.the other- side of the Rhino opposite Mannhelni. These two cities are con. fleeted by * grand double Iron bridge. Street me, trains and teams can _pess over this bridge at the ame tim.. Lud. wigshafen hes about 25,000 inhabitants. I spent one day there and afterwerde went to Frei -kind. Thh latter is *very grand place and has a population of *bout 76,000 inhabitants. 1 believe the fittest depot in the world is here. It is . said to have cost 33 million marks. Here the Americans could learn a great deal concerning the art of building. The dome and theatre building are two - grand structures. I went to Berlin and arrivi,d, there at 10 o'clock on Sunday evening. It was very -difficult for me to oet into a hotel at this time Of the even- ing. I asked at eight hotels and there - was no room empty in any of them, till _ at last I came to one where there was just one room empty. There is nothing interesting about the country I saw on my way'. The land is level, /Sadly good •- and partly bad soil. Many of the small villages look very poor as mostly all the • houses are only one story high. In the country around here the women carry, their baskets on their., heads and in Switzerland on their shoulders, 'stayed in Berlin four days and saw a great deal of the city,- but if I wished to see every- thing it weuld take me several weeks. Here single houses are being built, • which are more expensive, than when you take all the houses which are built in Berlin, in Canada,this year, together. I visited -the castles of the Emperor. They are so grand and elegant that they cannot be described. I was in the old Emperor's working room and saw his last writing. Everything is kept in this room, as it was when he lived, in re- membrance of him. I also visited the arsenal, where the, weapons and spears ' of times past are preserved. It is really astonishing to think that all these wea- , pons are made for the purpose of killing people. I was in the 'picture gallery and, saw the ,,,many grand drawings and statues. - The prinoipal railway in Berlin runs through the centre of the city. It is built high up • and the streets pass through it. There is no danger of any one being run over. Four tracks are built Which prevent collisions. I also made a shortdisit at Potsdam and saw the old Emperor's palace. It is a very magnificent building, surrounded with ornamental trees and flower beds. The • park covers several hundred acres of land. This is the place where the late Emperor Frederick died last year. At resent they are erecting a special build- ing here,where his remains will be placed in. A great army force is stationed here. 1 also was at Charlottenlpurg and visited the Emperor's palace. To -night I will leave for Hamburg and will probably stay there several - days. From there I will -sail to Eng- land. It is almost two months sinoe I left New Hamburg. I am well at pres- ent, but sometimes I get tired out by walking so much. SAMUEL MEWS% 41.••••••.• New York Letter., (Regular correspondent.) THE FALL , AWAKENING -SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES oPENING4 UP -REDUCING THZ.POPUDATION-A ROOF. LAMP. Nnw YORK, September 30, 1889. - As the cool weather approaches -pie city is resuming itanatural activity and the process of a fall opening" can be 'plainly seen. While we are not entire- ly dead during .the summer nionths, still it cannot be denied that there is a mark- ed dullness at that time which is prompt- ly shaken off at the first sign of cold -weather.. Accordingly there is now a general waking up on all sides, and not • only is business getting more brisk, )put • all the various forms of life are being re- newed and invigorated. Our public schookt,which accommodate nearly 140,- 000 scholars are again in operation and the great libraries are opening. The - Astor Library, which has been closed for some time, opened last week. It is oneof the few great libraries of the world,. and is famous not only for the number of its books, but also for the variety of its literary treasures. - It con- - tains 250,000 volumes and is free to everybody, •but only during certain hours of the day. • The Codper Institute chases open to- morrow.. Nearly 3,200 pupils have been admitted to the various departments and applications have been Aled by 1,000 others. The library and reading room has also reopened and will remain open on week days, Sundays, and evenings. In this respect Cooper Institute is much more liberal than the Astor Library; which in tarn is far ahead of the Lenox Library. The latter, which contains thouvands of books and hundreds of rare historical treasures, besides its 'paint- ings, is practically a sealed book. A lot of red tape must be gone through with to even gain admission' t� the , building. Among its other treasures are the original manuscripts of George Washington's farewell address and the letter' of Christopher Columbus • an- nouncing the disooveryof America. EEDIXING Tilt POrtILATION. The Board of Health inspectors have taken advantage of the wet weather, when all the residents of overcrowded distriets would be at home, to make an investigation, and regulate the popula- tion of tenements according to the sani- tary laws laid down by the Code, which' .required 400 cubic feet for each person. The reductiOns are chiefly in the Italian districts="Mulberry Bend" and "Little Italy." One house was found to con- • 'tain 108 inhabitants, with a rear tene- ment equally crowded. They were each proMptly reduoed about one.third and if the order is violated arresti will fol- io* immediately. ,A REMARKABLE LAMP. Our weather Bureau is taking on some improvements of late, and among them is a huge lamp which has just been erected on the top of the Equitable Building for the purpose of giving storm signals at night.. It is placed 75 feet above the top of the building, is four feetin height, and will be lighted by electricity.- The 'frames will be fitted with red and blue glass. The signal will be lit all night in stormy weather, and will be visible down the bay as far as the Narrows, through which all ocean and 'coast vessels enter New York harbor. EDWIN. ARLINGTON. • .

He re- ceived an answer in the negative, and was 'then asked if he was the station agent, and received a sitnilar reply. Without further ceremony he (thescoun- drel) grabbed for the doctor's throat. The dobtor was, however, too quick,and gave him the benefit of a heavy walking stick under the ear which laid him out.

The farm is under lease to Mr. John Gilson, whose loss is heavy, comprising as it does 500 bushels of oats, 200 bush- els of chopped grain, 50 tops of hay, be- sides some straw, etc. The horses and cows Were out of the stable when the fire started, and about 25 pigs were -driven out in time, but A lot Of poultry were -burned. Mr. Gilson's loss will probably be about $1-,200 or $1,500, and that of Priddis Bios. about $3,500. The . losses are partly covered _by insurance. —Says the Dundas Standard :—One night a week or So ago Revl Dr. -Laing was walking down Cross street to King and he foregathered with a pole -cat.
