The system | u ed wtil be the THOMPSON-HOUSTON, now in operation all over Canada and the United States. The advautages of the Incanéescent Light over other lights consist chiefly in perfect immunity from smell, in the absence of canger from fire; or otherwise, and in the steadiness and brilliancy of its light. Wherever it has once heen introduced it has been retained and given general satisfaction.
The expert Engineer engaged in setting up the plant, and who is prepared to put in the lights in any buildings, will be glad to give all information necessary) as to prices, ete., to those who desire to introduce the light.

The Census Trouble.
New York by Gaslight
Chinatown and Little Etaly.
‘The Bowery and Its Resorts.
New York, the commercial metropolis of the United States, is situated at the
| mouth of the Hudson River, about twenty lmiles from the Atlantic Ocean.
By the national census, taken during the course of the past summer, it was shown that its population was 1,513 501; but the civic authorities were tot satisfied with this enumeration, and had a new census taken by the police. This Jast census was con- (cluded a few weeks ago, and showed a | total population of 1,710,715—neaily 200,- 1000 more than the coflicial census. The of- ficial count was in charge of sworn ofiicers,
| while the count made by the pojice was
‘not, and there is an impression abroad that ‘while the former may have overlooked some | persons in their enumeration, the latter | padded cut the lists. However this may be, the wide difference between the two
| proven that the more recent count is the /eorrect one, New York would be entitled to an additional representative in Con gress and twe additional representatives io the State Legislature, besides an additional vote in the electoral college which chouses (the President. It will thus be readily seen that New York has not only its prestige as ithe most populous city on the western | hemisphere to contend for, but some very | substantial advantages as well.
However, there is every likelihood of the matter in dispute being made all right ere long.
The facilities afforded for transit between the various parts of New York have been greatly improved within the past half score of years. Besides the horse cars and other more ancient meaus of locomotion, the city has now four lines of elevated railroads, viz., the Second, Third, Sixth and Ninth Avenue Lines. The Third Avenue Line has a branch from Chatham Square to City Hall, and one running through Forty- second Street to the Grand Central Depot. The Sixth Avenue line crosses Fifty-third Street to Ninth Avenue, while the Second ' Avenue line has bridged the Harlem River
and extended its tracks over the mainland.
'At the termination of the Sixth and Ninth Avenue lines, which, above Central Park, run over what is called English Avenue, is ‘the depot of the New York City and Nor- thern Railroad. Al! theelevated roads are, I understand, leased by one company. The number of miles covered by these roads in the city is about thirty-two, and in Brook- lyn twenty-four. Besides the elevated jroads the city has a cable road on Tenth ‘Avenue, from 125th Street to 185th Street, ‘and another on 125th Street from river to jriver. The great bulk of travel is, of ‘course, by the elevated roads. While the ‘charge fur each passenger on the elevated road isthesameas by the horse cars, the speed of the former is much greater, and there is jan absence of the jolting so characteristic of the last-mentioned mode of conveyance. The elevated cars run ona level with the top flats of the houses along the route, and the traveller is, in consequence, sometimes treated to tieeting glimpses of very amusing scenes.
it was on a fine afternoon in September that a friend and I boarded an elevated car on our way to Brooklyn via the celebrated bridge, about which so much has been said and written. The run across afforded us an opportunity of hurriedly inspecting this magnificent structure, and the return jour-
point. But as the public are already fami- liar with the details of construction, cost,

theee poor people manage to exist is a mys-
tery. They live in places that would be
the death of an ordinary mortal, aud eub-
sist upon adiet at which the stomach of
any other person would rise in rebellion. , How many of these creatures exist, I can-
not say live, in New York City alone, is
largely a matter of conjecture. But the
number must be very great As we passed
along the street 1 managed to get a look
through the windows in some of the flita,
and could see that inside thir number was
legion. Where they all managed to stow | themselves when thuse who were about the | sidewalks returned to their houses, I will, not undertake to say. i have heard it! said, however, that when a room is filed, | and more accommodation is needed, a plat-} form is strung acrcss about midway be- | tween the fluor and the ceiling, and in this | way a sort of second floor is provided | whereon the remainder repose for the} night. But this is probably an exuggera- | tion.
Passing by the joss house, and rounding corner, we soon found ourselves in the: quarter of the city where the Italians re- side, and which is familiarly known as **Littio Itely.” Here, as in the locality through which we had just passed, the scene was an animated one. Runuing hither and thither, as if playing sume game, were scores of Italian children with hand- kerchiefs around their heads, and about the doors and windows and sidewalks were italian men and women innumerable. Most of the men, and many of the women, were smoking, and everyone, including the pea- uut merchant princes on the corners, was taiking and gesticulating. None of our party being versed in the Italian language, [am unable to give the reader even the faintest outline of what occasioned all the excitement. But, perhaps, they were dis: cussing the newest phase of an atrocious murder that had been committed in the

drink of beer, end might possib'y be useful for purposes of comparison. But of the class of peeple who make a practice of attending these entertainments— particularly the ladies —the least said the better.
Along Kighth Avenue there are also beer garders and conceit halls, bat they are in every respect, far below those that I have referred to. The enterteinment furnished there generally consists of a few sclos, or songs aud dances by beer-laden jezebels with painted feces and arms, accompanied by an asthmatic orgau or pienv, the music ground out of which is excruciating.
The visit to these somewhat celebrated sections of the city was made solely through curiosity, I hed heard much about them and tock advantaze of the first opportunity that p esented itself, to see and judge for myself. And I do not 1egret that Idid 50. The many phases of life one sees during such an outing, and the different sorts and claeses of people met with, certainly furnishes ample food for reflection. How true it is ‘that one ha’f the wor!d dees aot know how the other half lives.”

locality on the evening previous. The {talians here, like their neighbors the
they manage to exist passes comprehension. That some epidemic has not cleaned out
this has long been a matter of surprise to those conversant with their manner ofliving. After leaving ‘Little Italy,” we passed along Chatham Street, where the Jewish cluthing houses are located. The hour be- ing somewhat late most of the stores were closed, but a few remained open in the hope of roping in some straggling custom- ers. As we came along the street, the pro- prietor of one of these stores hailed us, and in duleet tones called out, ‘*Gentle- mans, we sells cloding to night,” advancing towards us as he spoke. Oue of our party turned about as the man advanc- ed and laughingly asked, ‘* Won’t you be seiling to-morrow, too?” This reply ruffled the temper of the representative cf the lost tribes, and he returned at once to his post in the door-way wuttering something that sounded suspiciously like cuss words. He was the first and only man that tried to work the *‘ cheap clothing” dodge on us that night, and he didn’t succeed.
From Chatham Street we proceeded to the Bowery, passing along Paradise Park better known as the Five Points, because five roads mect there. The scenes on the Bowery were somewhat different from those oa the streets through which we had just passed. Here samples of the lowest ele- ments of both sexes were to be seen moving about or standing on the corners, Micawber- like, waiting for something to turn up. But none of them interfered in any way with us. On our way up the street we passed several museums or low concert halls out- side of which were hung painted represen- tations of the curiosities, etc., said to be within. But it is, perhaps, needless to say that with these shows, as with the majority of those that visit Charlottetown, the best part is on the outside. They are ‘‘ fakes” of a very pronounced type, and are only iv- tended to rope in strangers and couutry- men. Thieves and pickpockets hover about them watching tor victims, and they can scent a “‘ green” as quickly as they can go through him when they settle down to business. ‘The beer gardens that abound along the Bowery are, howaver, the great feature of the place. AlJl of the gardens are furaished in good style and are well patronized. There is a regular concert going on in each of them every evening, aud all it costs to be present is the price of a glass of beer or a cigar. In some cases the programme is a good one and is well carried out ; but in others the concert, like the beer, is decidedly rank. At one of the gardens-—the Volks—the principal atrrac- tion on the night of our visit was a Turkish orchestra in native costume, which, it was given out, bad just arrived from Constanti- nople and had been engaged at great ex- pense for a limited season only. I had a good lok at the members of the orchestra from where 1 sat, however, and the im-
pression I formed was that the only Turkey they ever saw was the ‘| regulation Thanksgiving one. But their
playing was excellent, and each selection was loudly applauded. . Besides the thirteen orchestral numbers ou the programme, there were sentimental and comic songs,§ duets, -lete., all of which were capitally sung. At the Atlantic Garden, which we also visited, a lengthy programme, was furnisbed. The orehestra here, which, by the way, was an unusually good one, was made up exclusively of females dressed in white, and these, with a hoat of vocalists, delighted the immense audience. I regret that the space‘at my dis- posal will not allow the priating of the pro- grammes of the entertainmeuts furnishd in the places named, as well as in some others, as their publication would give the reader a better iven of the class of concert ew York for a five cent
