The New York Times is cxposing the
friends of “the Ring“: and they are dread-

learn that in 1869 the Time: shared in the
stealings to the amount of nearly thirty
thousand dollars for corporation printing,
and that its present gush of virtue is the
apparent result of the Ring refusing to sub-
sidise it further. The truth should be
known, and we hope it will all be brought
out: even though the character of the

It may be a wise economy in llll‘ Central
Pacific management, to have eight wheeled
and lightly built sleeping cars instead of the
twelve wheeled and solid Pullman pattern,
but it is not for the comfort of the traveler.
On the Union Pacific tlic heavy Pullman
moved steadily along, while on the Central,
the lighter combination car jolted and jump
ed, and compelled one to accustom himself
afresh to a new sensation. Thcsc we took

finds a stranger mixture of the wilderness
and civilization than here. (‘losc by the ct)-
ginc houses, containing many specimens of
that mightiest force of civilization, the loco-
motive, was pitched an Indian lodge, from
which vermilion painted braves and squaws
in natural mlor, came to look on the eastern
palc faces. I confess that the noble savmc
does not favorably impress me. Sci-away,
squalid, vermin-covered, lying thieves, one
desires to touch them only with tongs,anda
visit to Goose Island in Norwalk Harbor
alone reconciles one in their peculiar odor.
It is n trite remark, but that “ noble savage“
never lived out of Cooper's novels. The sav-
ages were not the only original inhabitants
watching the train. Close to the platform
danced 3 cinnamon bear, whose half human
antics with a bottle of milk, shortened our
lengthy stay. A prairie wolf, an eagle, two
wild cats and a porcupine, all caged, sullcn-
Iy watched the greater freedom of the bear.
It study was no slight proof that a strange
mixture of new and old can be seen here,
that our train should have been made up be-
tween an Indian lodcc and a bear dcu. For
forty milcs we skirted the northern cdgc of
Great Salt Lake and reached Corinne, from
which stages go north to the mines of Mow
tarts and from which ll little steamer. just
launched. is to ply on the Lake. “'liat lllls-
tlc, what activity hero. Freight trains. pas-
scngcr tmlns, coaches coming, coaches going, l
and then the medley of languages on the '
platform. The sing~song Chinese. the grunt-
ing Indian, guttcral German, flowing Span.
isli, broad Scotch and nasal Yankee, punctu-
ated with the guffaws of the Negro, ull were
jabbered at Corinne. The screecli of ourdc
parting locomotive was a relief. On our re
turn we found Corinnc at early dawn and
were thankful.
From this point to the Sierras little of inter
esqmeets the eye or the ear. The. road follows
the Humboldt river and other valleys for
seven hundred miles, and except at the pull-
sades of the Humboldt, the scenery is dreary
in the extreme. A long, narrow plain,
skirted by low mountains, sage brush covcr-
ed and whitened with alkali, arc with you
day and night. Humboldt station is pretty
by contrast with the surrounding barreunass,
for here a little fountain makes an oasis in
the desert. The approach to the
WAS
is by night. You know you are climbing, by
the inclinallon of the car, by the many
curves and twists that you have learned to
recognize so well even with shut eyes, but of
the country nothing isseen until early mom-
ing, when you have snatches of sight in the
intervals between the snow sheds which for
forty miles guard the road bed at its highest
elevation. For two hours tlietrain rumbles

If one could imagine all that is beautiful on

the rocks left, and 11an stripped of every.-
thing living even to moss, or if one has Been
dated and a thick layer of yellow mud and
stones deposited where green fields once lay,
one will then know how mining districts ap-
pear.
The water is used again and again at dif-
ferent elevations until the mining country is
passed. When the plains are reached it dc-
posits its mud, and, clear and beautiful once
more, joins the rivers which greet the sea.
