The AMERICAN UNIoE.-lt has already
withstood tempest after tempest, and outived
successive prophets of ruin. A mere handful
of provinces, casually united in resistance TO
England, and on the point of falling TO pieces
when necessity for resistance ceased, it ac-
qured at that critical moment new constltu
lion which knit the .dejointed members firmly
together. A second war. undertaken against
the will of one third of its component States,
appeared to threaten it afresh with dissolution;
IT ended in strengthening the Union, through
new Infusion of national spirit, and by rou-
sing common sentiment, which absorbed
sectional Jealousies and passions Next came
the consummation of the victory obtained by
the Democratic party in their long struggle
with the federalists-a victory which seemed
TO threaten with speedy destruction the bond
which it had been the principle of the latter to
vindicate and maintain But Providence over
ruled this danger also to contrary issue, for
the State authorities which could not long
have endured the stricter yoke intended by the
federaists, submitted easily to the modified
control which the disciples of Jefferson vested
in the central government, The nation over
flowed across the bounding Alleganies, and
spread over the wide valley of the Mississip-
pl, and it was pronounced by friends, as well
inevitably lead TO disruption. Contrary to all
antici patton, this very extension has preserved
the unity of the republic. The growing sepa-
ration of North and South, divided in interest,
and hostile in feeling, prevented from coming
into direct collision by the introduction of the
new western States. This third and powerful
element kept the others together in compulso-
~ harmony and in the same manner, every
subsequent addition has tended to strengthen
the fabric rather than to bring il down.
The wider the dominion of the federation
spreads, the greater the number of local inter-
ests and populations comprehended within lis
boundary. the less appears 10 be the proba-
bl!lty that any particular local interests can
threaten the general weal-that dissentons
between particular sections are destined to en-
danger the security of the Union. 1t has
withstood the shocks of commercial distress,
and the extravaganza of commercial prosperi-
| ty it has been enfeebled by the impulse Civ
en- TO party spirit under a long and idle peace;
| it seems to encounter no material danger from
the questionable success of war of invasion
and conquest; for war waged like those of
the Carhagenans, by hired armies and jeal-
ousy controlled generals, are not very likely
i to produce Caesar or Napoleon AS far as
human sagacity foresees, the clouds which
enveloped the birth of the confederacy have
cleared away. There is no peculiar political
danger now impending which has not been
incurred and surmounted already, and OF
which American statesmen cannot estimate the
amount, and may not be expected TO guard the
shock. Edinburgh ReuieW.

City San Francisco. this city, together
with it's famous bay and harbor, will probably
soon form portion of our territory, we give
a description of The city, which we find in the
St. Louis Reveile, copied from the Calltor-
man OF August last:
The town site, as recently surveyed, en-
braces an extent of one and half square
miles. 1t is regularly laid out, being inter-
secled by streets from sixty TO eighty feet in
width. The squares are divided into lots of
from sixteen and half varas, (the Spanish
yard, of about 80 in.) front and fifty deep,
to one hundred varaS square. The smaller AMI
more valuable of these lots are those situated
between high and low water mark. Part of
these lots were sold in July last, at auction,
and brought from fifty to six hundred dollars.
The established prices of the fifty and one hun
dred cara lot are S12 and S25.
San Francisco, last August, contained 459
souls-of whom 375 were whites, four-fifths
of these being under forty years of age. Some
idea of the composition of The white popula-
ton may be gathered from the following state
ment as to the nativity of the larger portion:
English, %; Germans, 81; Irish, IA; Scotch;
IA; borne in the United States, 228; Callior-
mans, SO.
Thirty-two OF these last mentioned being
Californians proper, it will be seen that about
three ftths of the whole number OF immigrants
are from the United States. We do moi give
the Indians, Sandwich Islanders, negroes, &c.
neither is mention made Of the regiment OF
New York Volunteers.
Of the white population there are eighty
nine who can neither read nor write; but when
we learn that there are eighty-three children,
under ten years of age, and only one teacher,
tie fact will not be wondered at.
Previously to the lst of April, 1917, there
had been erected in the town seventy-nne
buildings, nearly all of which were erected
within the two years immedlateI ~ preceding
that date From the 1st OF April 10 the lst Of
August there were raised seventy eight build
ings. Il appears, then, by comparison OF
the two above statements, that there had been
erected within five months as many buildings
as were erected in all the years previous.
This is an increase which may well chal-
lenge the banks OF our own rivers, and this
is as it were but the first footprint OF the Anne
ricans.
There can be no better evidence OF the ad.
vantages and capabilities for Improvement OF
/ the place than this single fact.
Centre Of the finest harbor on the Pacific,
and seconded by the enterprise and intelligence
of its hardy citizens, San Francisco IS destined
to become the great commercial emporium OF
the North Pacific coast.
