1t will here be perceived, that these distances are
nearer the starting point from all Of our commercial
cities by one thousand miles, than from any Of our
commercial ports, TO Chagres or even Teh,iantepec
The distance, then, from Prairie du Chen TO Oregon
and California nearer by nearly two thousand miles
than by either of the routes Of Panama or Tehuan-
tepec Besides this IL planas In direct rouie from
Europe TO China Thisis OF some importance. In fact
go much so, that II places ns five thousand miles
nearer the sources of commercial wealth than Eu-
rope. Let US put down the commerce Of Japan at
5000 600 000 that Of China 100000 000 and that
of India at sl50,000000. We will then have a
trade of $3.50, ,000 to make the transit across
this country, and of this tfnde this country would
be compelled raise productions sufficient TO supply
at least $500, 900 Of It. Our own export and i'm
port trade does not exceed this amount but by few
millions. Ii would therefore throw into the treas
ury an increase of revenue Of at least $1,000 0OO
making our revenue about $50 000 Butthis not
all. 1t will increase the value Of public lands and
real estate throughout the conntry,and lands that
are now almost valueess for wantof transportation
Of their productions, will become valuable.
Whether road starts from Prairie du Chen or at
any other point 1t should be done at once The incep
lent steps should at once be taken and advantages
now be secured that may hereafter be lost. l wish

We thank the Secretary Of the Treasury
for printed copy Of his Report on the
WayehousiHg System, submitted to Con-
gress yesterday. 1t is a lucid document,
exhibiting in the strongest lights the advan-
tages to the country Of the warehousing sys-
TEN. He asks for very few amendments
to the existing law to make It perfect, and
we think that Congress cannot fail to grant
them, when it shall come to digest the con-
tents Of the present report There is one
sentiment in the report which we cannot re-
frain from endorsing with all our heart and
soul, and that is, where he calls our national
Union, moral and political necessity
sphich no human power can serer or destroy.

We love benevolent man, for benevo-
lence is to wish well to all men, and no man
who wishes well to his fellow creatures can
prevent himself from dong well to them,
when il is in his power. Beneyolence in
old age is perhaps more beautiful than it is
in youth--though it is beautiful IN all ages
and in all persons-for the reason, that It Is
feeling recognition Of the truth spoken by
the Lord, that all things which are made are
his and only lent to his creatures for use
Old age is more capable than youth Of real
ling this truth,
To these reflections we have been i'm
PEELED by the following touching note
from an octogensrian friend Of ours to
most estimable lady, poor in this
worlds goods. He VIII doubtless be as
tonished to see it referred to in this connec-
ton, but as examples Of benevolencs are 50
rare in these selfish days, we have deter
mined to publish his note for the instruction
Of the reader, in the hope that the example
may be followed by every one, who has III,
means to follow it There Is no difficulty il
finding out the neighbor, who shall be tht
worthy object Of our benevolenee Blessing

HUNr, from the Committee on Commerce,
in the House, extending the revenue laws

large majority. Some gentlemen think that
the provision Of the bill, postponing its exc

but this does not follow, for the President

another curious and amusing chapter in the foreign
policy Of the present wonderful and astounding
cabinet
The present farc-up is with the Spanish minis
ter, on account of the abduction Of a Spanish lady
from Cuba, perpetrated by an American vessel.
We hope the lady is beautilul-ln fact another
Helen. We shall then have as strong reasons /,
fight II out as The Greeks had in the Trojan war.
Thus we go. Oar able and interesting Sscre-
tary Of State has had Aare-up with the French

TELEGRAPnIC INTELLIGENCE,


Further details of the result OF the election in
Pennsylvania are given below. 1t will be seen that
the defeat of the wings in that State is overwhelm
ing-their opponents having elected their candl-
date for Canal Commissioner by large majority,
and obtained probably large majority also in the
Legislature; while the wing candidate for Mayor
Of Philadelphia is defeated, for the first time in
more than twenty years-and democratic Sheriff
of the city and county OF Philadelphia has been
elected, for the first time since 1910. The other
county officers it appears are about half wings and
half democrats.
We received a despatch from Baltimore yester
day afternoon, stating that Gen Taylor had arrived
in that city, ca, route for New York. This mora
ing we have another communication, which will
be found below, in which our correspondent states
that ne had personal interview with the Pfesi-
dent, and learned from his own lips that he did not
intend prose his journey north this Fan, be-
you'd Baltimore. This vexed question may, there
fore, be regarded settled, finally.
The latest Geographic report in regard 10 the
dreadful riots in Philade phia will be found On the
first page, following the particulars received by
mail.
A despatch from Montreal states that the move
mept in favor Of the Of Can. the Unite
States is rapidly Strengthening especially in Montreal
This is caused, in great measure, probably, by
the removal Of ths seat Of government to Toronto
and, we presume the fact added to very little
loyalty has secured for Lord Egin kind reception at
the latter city.
