Tbe elevated railways have encountered cous'.dor uble dittlculty wltu tbe telegraph poloa lOat have stood lu their way. To prosecute their work hun dreds ol thcae poles had lo bo removed. Mr. William Orion, i'roaldeul of ibe Western Union Telegraph. Coin puny, wheu questioned yesterday In rcforence to lh? subject, said thai an arruugemcut had been uiude between tbe Wcttcru L'uiou and llie elevated railways by which the lulter were to move the poles om of their w?y at tboir owu ex pense. "We have mil ilio option," Mr. Oriou said, "after ibe elevatod railways ure completed to put buck our poios underneath tho struciuie and so us not to inierlere with ibo elevaiod roads," Mr. Orion remarked thai while upon the west side the removals ol poles wero not material oil tlie Third AVonue lino the poles would have to be transplanted to a considerable extern. In answer to me query why the poles were not be.ng placed under tlie structure now Mr. Orion replied thui the road* were uol yel huill uud, by wuy ol illusir illou, added luis lulle story :?"You remember ibere was u board ol Aldermen in a curiam towu wbo resolved, Ursl, to buiida new couri hoise; secoud, that ibe maleriuls of the old court liouso siiouid be used in building the new, and tnou, lliird, mat Ihey would occupy ine old court house uulil the uew uuu was ready."

Au important pioj ci wuicli bus been broached bo tween thu Western Uulon uud Ibo elevuiud railways is me proposition thai all poles, wb.cn aro to gen erally regarded as eyesores, sunll be dial etised with altogether, and that the wires shall be carried in cables alongside the elevuted railway tracks, either above the projecting crossl'.es or between the upper uud lower chords ol ibe girders resting upon the beads ol Ibe columns.

The ?private view"' of lil# collection at plcturea belonging to Cottier H Co.. which are to bo aold next week, drew together at the Leavitt Art Room* last evening a large number of arnsta, critic, dealerr, well anown picture buyers and lovers ol art. The collection ol 1#3 paintings contains many works ol unusual merl., ana there is a remarkably high average ol artistic excellence. There are One palnt? logs ol the men who have died within the lust twenty years, aud ol the men who are still living, who will be known as masters by posterity, and some ol whom are now regarded as such. Hero we see examples of the poet painters, ol the school of Impressionists, of the historians ol the lorost lives and ol the mon who arrested a thought or. Impression and bequeathed it to the world, lhere Is a calm, serious, tbougntlui gravity and almost religious feeling about the works of somo ol these men which harmonizes admirably wlih cer tsln moods ol man's nature. A low paintings of this class give solidity and value to a collection, though it must bo coulessod that the ofloct of a collection made up entirely of them Is rather depressing. Many of tne examples are "artist picture."?piotures wuich an enthusiast would prize highly?und the majority are worthy of rauoh study aud capable of imparting much information. \ A nuuibor of the paintings were described in tbe IisKALD One arts column on Jauuary (J in a review of tlie paintings, then on exhibition at the Messrs.
