AT : GRIND PARADS BAKTHOXJ)I BOM j ORXD. Nw Yoax, Oct. 28. The rain storm, which prevailed all day yesterday,1 oeesed during the night, but the weather this, morning is very unpromising for the' festivities which are to attend the inauguration of the Bartholdi statue.' A slight fog hangs over the city and obscures in a measure the elaborate decorations of the buildings, with which the city has been beautified. The Frenoh and American flags are flying from the house-tops and windows in every direction and a general holiday appearanoe is presented by the moving bodies of the soldiers, the militia, oivic organisations and by the collection on the sidewalks of great crowds of peo ple. The decorations of the city hall are very elaborate. Long streamers and flgs have been hung from lhe Fed eral buildings opposite along the main streets, through which the procession will maroh, in. order to pats under the magnificent arch of evergreens, flags and mottoes erected in front of the World building, which is tastefully decorated with French flags and bunting. The French flag flies from the flagstaff of the Tribune building, and the Sua, Times and Mail and Express newspaper offiees are all similarly decorated In lower Broadway and Wall street many of the fronts of large buildings are almost hidden by fligs. Business is ajmost entiroly suspended; the public schools are closed, and all New York is taking part in the celebration. Visitors from all sections of the country have been coming into the oity for two days past, and this morning thousands more were added to the great throng. The prospects cf unpleasant weather is in no fray deterring them. ' f Naw Yoax, Oct. 28. It is estimated that fully a million people took part in the festivities today. The multitude pa simply enormous. Along streets taken by the procession the crush was terrible and every window was filled With people. Wet pavements, mud, chilly air and general discomfort were no appreciable bar to publio enthusi asm oyer the event of liberty 's uu veiling. I ; The streams of workingmen and wo men, who usually tread the streets at -early morning hours, carrying dinner jpails and lunoh baskets were today; as arly astir, but the difference, was they Iwore their holliday attire and their faces had expectancy in every feature. As early as eight o clock the tenement districts began their movement toward. the streets and avenues where they might see the pagan t. From the boun dary line east and west at the river fronts the drift of people moved, until when ! nearing the line of maroh there grew to be a tide of human beings that at length dammed up against the police Unci and set back its constantly flawing stream tn the near-by avenues. The fifth U. S. artillery, commanded by Col John Hamilton, and the engineer corps took their position in front of Secretary Whitney's house, at osth tit. and nth avenue, a few minutes after v. Nextoame the Oil Guard who stood near the carriages, waiting lor toe President's cabinet to leave Secretary Whitney's Cresidenee, where he had spent the night. Promptly at 10 o'clock President Uuveland, aooompanied by Secretary Bayard, descended the Steps and entered an open carriage. They were followed by Secretary Whitney, Postmaster General Vilas, Secretary Lunar, Private Secretary Lam on t, Rear Admiral Lioe and stiff and Mm Whipple. The Old Guard prededed the carriages and at 10 15 o clock com mecced the march down Fifth avenue. Both sides of that street were crowded with people, who waved their hats and applauded loudly as the President's oarrisge passed. Oa all the ; side streets,, from Central park d,wo to the reviewing stand on 21:h Btroet, the different military oompouies and eivio organisations were formed It was iist 10:40 o'clock when the Pres- ident reached the reviewing stand. : He wsi greeted with hearty cheera as he drove down the avenue and drew, up in front of the stand. After the President had taken his place on the rcvieying stand the members of the Jvrencn dele vat ion were presented' to him. The party , included Uount ae JU-issepa ana Hi Jjartholdt.

When liartholdi appeared on the stacd ho was easily recognised by the mass of doodIc who bad seen his nor traits, and a great snout went up. ; lhe crowds on the avenue; up and down, heard the name and passed it to people id the park and side streets, until the iir was bhaken with a roar of cheering that must have gladdened the heart of Birtholdi, who bowed his acknowlcdg meats. - In carriages driven to the rear of the stand went President Cleveland and his party. Instantly he was recognised and again the crowds shook the air with their shouts and from the house-tops and windows of near-by hotels oame Shouts and sounds of dapping hands. Oa the reviewing stand the President was presented with three handsome baskets of flowers, the gifts of young ladies in the city. Nearly every band in passing playod the Marseillaise, the French national hymn : Alter the procession had passed and the party were driven to the North river, where tho Dispatch was waiting to con vey them to Bedloe s island, The for mation of the marine part of the parade began on the Hudson river, at an early hour, but owing to the foggy weather, it was neatly 1 o'clock before the signal gun was fired. At this time there were probably 100 vessels drawn up, in two divisions, the first oomposed of larjre steamers and the second of tugs and smaller vessels, some or these were beautifully decorated with flags and buntinff.

Umvibjitt Of N. 0, , Oct. 27. In two issues of your paper I have noticed the account of the- "curious phenomenon" at Charlotte, a rain- shower between two trees on oloudless Uvs. There is a well-known oonditaon of plant-life, which, in the absence of direct evidence to the oontrary, may be accepted as a solution of the mystery. This is what is called "transpiration of plants." ; It may be generally known that the roots of a plant absorb water from the soil, and that this water, or the greater portion of it, is given off into the air through the ; leaves, in the form of Water vapor, whioh, of course, is invisible. But very few may have an adequate idea of the enormous amount of water which is thus transpired by plants. 1 Numerous observations have been made to determine this. In one ease a tree thirty feet in height transpired during the summer (fife and one-half months) 125 tons of water; equal to a depth of seventeen feet for the sur face of ground covered by the spread of the branches. Tne amount of tho rain fall during the same time was only two feet and one inoh. It is estimated that common sued fruit tree transpires fifty barrels of water per day. oomeumes aosorpuon is in exoa oi transpiration, when the water will spurt in drops from the lear of certain plants. From the accounts given in the paper, it would be reasonable to oonolude that, by the transpiration of Water from these two trees, in the form of an insensible vapor, the atmosphere,' becomes very hutni', and with the lowering of the temperature of the air in the afternoon tms matter u prooipiwwju ui lurin wi the rain seen. Similar phenomena to that observed at Charlotte, caused by transpiration, are not unoommon. G. F. Atmnsox. The supreme court took a holiday yesterday. E. RAILW AY PASSENGERS ROASTED ALIVE. AN 1PP -1.UNO ACCU'CNT in wiacos- MiLWAVKia, Oct. 28 -4-The limited passenger train on the Chicago, Mil waukee & St. Paul railroad, which left here last evening at 10 o'clock, was de railed at Rio, when about three hours out. and thrown into an old stone quarry. The particulars are hard to get, but it is admitted at the general office of the company in this oity that one coach and three sleepers were wrecked and five or six persons killed. Physiotans left this city on-the early train for the scene of the disaster. It is now reported that out of the ten per sons who occupied tho passenger oooh seven were killed. A gentleman from Chicago and two children fram Winona, Minn., were the only ones saved from the passenger coach. None of the oc o ipants of the sleepers were injured Nothing yet has been learned in regard to the cumber woundel. B. Lowcn bch, a job printer of this city, was on tite wrecked train; He ssys the scenes after the aooident were hitrrowing. The passenger coach, whioh ho says con tained between fifteen and twenty per s)ns, was telescoped at both ends, and tie fire and smoke that enveloped the wreck prevented the imprisoned and iniured Tjasseueers from esespine. The passengers from the sleepers gathered around the blazing oars, but were pow erless to render assistance. Mn and women eould be seen tearing their hair in the agony of the moment, and frights ful screams issued from :he death-trap One heavy woman in particular, he says, tore up one of the seats with al most superhuman strength and endeav ored to break her way o it of th: filming pyre, but her strength failed and she fell to the flor and met a horrible death. Only three i?rsons escaped from the passenger car, Mr. Lowenbaoh says, a man and two children, lhe man was observed as he forced his way thr ugh the ventilstor on the top of the car, i with all the slothing' on his body from his waist 'downward burned off and bis flesh roasted and bleeding from the cuts inflicted by the broken glass. : Every one of the wrecked cars was consumed, with the exoeptioi Of the last; sleeper, which was cut away from the burning wreck!.

Crossing into the Old North State, in whose capital joity we are now enjoying that hospitality which is the great pride and pleasure of her people, we find ourselves in one of the grandest, noblest, richest and most importaat-of the bright galaxy of States. Rich in resources, some of whioh are found nowhere else on this continent, she stands forth in her pride of develop ment, a grand figure in the great confed eration. Just within her borders, ; in the western part of the Stats, are located the celebrated Cranberry iron mines, with ' products possessing proper ties whioh are not not found in the ores of any Other mines. They produoe from 50 to 70 per eent of pure magnetic tnd semi-magnetio metal, and from the crude oro tools of excellent quality have been manufactured, as a test, by simply beat ing them into shape on the anvil with out resorting to the customary operation of heating. This ore requires no flux ing, but ts frequently used in that ca pacity! in melting other ores. These mines extend from the Doe river into Tennessee, twelve miles in a direct line, and through mountains of almost solid iron. Six hundred men are o instantly employed in working them. From these mines will be supplied in part the ore for the great Bessemer steel plants now in course of construction in the sister States farther South, to which the eyes of the industrial world are at this time directed. The first forge worked in the western part of north uaroiina was by one Abram Johnson, in 1760, on the Doe river. He died within the last few vears.at the ae of 82, having lived long enough to see what immense and inexhaustible interests had grownu out of the establishing of his humble effort. . ' The western section of North Carolina is well-named the mountain seo'ion. Its area is 150x50 miles, enclosing a lofty plateau, rising between two and three thousand feet above the sea level. Here are the highest mountains east of the Rookies, some of them towering up over 6,000 feit; : notably Roan mountain, which rises 6,200 feet, and from whe summit a view may j be had of parts of seven States at onoaL stand ng in superb panorama. All throj-jghout those moun tains are vast forests of white pine, hemlook, chestnut and othor trees. There is nowhere in the whole country to be found an equal area of land oov ered with trees of such value anil to so great an extent. It is all original growth, and, untii;reoent years. when railway facilities enabled it to had a market, had remained untouched from time immemorial. The olimate through out this section is glorious and invigor ating, and during the winter, as well as the summer months, thousands Of peo ple from all parts of the country flock . . . . i i ,t i thither for healtn or pleasure, mereny adding very largely to its resources. Here also are found marbles , of the finest quality and various oolors, while mines of mica andl oorundnm abound in many oo unties, whioh aro being worked satisfactorily and j paying good profits. Copper is also one of the prominent metals found here, the mints of whioh have been successfully operated. The middle or Piedmont seotion com prises nearly one-half of the State. In HOERIBJJ this section are lands rieh in agricul tural development, growing wheat, corn, tobacoo, barley, oats, buckwheat, &e., besides various grasses. This seo tion was uninjured by the ravages of war, though the doing away with slave ry rendered it necessary to l ent out the lands, that the owner might derive soma revenue from the immense tracts he was unable to oultivate for want of labor: As a result of this, men with lost for tunes, by dint of energy, hard labor and thrift, have found the means to repair losses, make homes for themselves, and bgiu and cirry through improvements all over the length and breadth of the section. The timber resources hero differ materially from those of other parts of the State. Here are the elm, maple, tulip, persimmon, black walnut, yellow pine, mulberry, and other varieties of growth. That these timbers may be more fully utilised, more establish ments are deeded for turning them into wagons,, carriages, agricultural imple ments, ti. The eastern seotion comprises the great level plain of the old State, ex tending about one hundred and tweuty five mile, from the sea coast to the in terior. The soil is for the most part a saoiy loftm, and being easily cultivated, largo crops of cereals, as well as cotton aro tho results of the labor of the hus bandmaa. 'The land is richly fertilised by natural deposits of lime and marl, as well as decomposed shells and other agencies, which go to enhance its fer tility. Naarly all kinds of fruits grow alsoia grett perfection. Of the timber of this section the first mention belongs to the long-leaf pine. This is par ex cellence the tree of trees. I1 covers an immense area of land, and apart from its products, its general adaptation to building of all kinds, including ships, imkes it one of the chief articles of ex port. The products of this tree are al most innumerable and well-nigh incred ible. From it wo get crude turpentine, rosin, spirits of turpentine or alcohol. pinoleum, creosote,: tar and heavy oil ot tar; from the long leaf we get stuffing for upholstery, carpets, mattings, and dressings for wounds: and lastly, we have ihe wood itself for fuel and char coal Of other trees are the cypress, white cedar and live oak, the last of whioh is found all along the coast, and is invaluable for shipbuilding. Apart from her iron deposits, North Carolina ean boast of others equally important Within a very small radius around the city of Charlotte, some forty or more gold mines are more or lees successfully operated. .In other parts of the State recent discoveries mark the existence of other rioh deposits of the precious metal, in quantities whioh may proba bly brine about a recurrence of- the scenes of r49 in California. The United States mint in Chariot e is now used in part as an assay offioe, doing work of the kind j amounting to about (21,000 par month. Take her altogether, her das trial and mineral j wealth, her, oil mate, her great timber resources, her rich and fertile lands, her mineral springs and other attractions, we ean point to North Carolina as a State whose grand future can hardly be imagined or nroinflaticatad- r--o-- Be sure to vote the jadioial tioket.
