the United States flag the equality guaranteed by de-
Of January, 1852 was that Spanish vessels pro-
ceedig from Cuba were subjected to discrimina-
ting tonnage duties in United States ports. Spain
could not have forgotten that from the earliest pc
rod in history, it has been policy to
ciproeate to the fullest extent the commercial priv
ileges and concessions granted 10 our flag by foreign
nations. As early as 1871 we proclaimed 10 the
world in an official report from the Treasury Depart
ment that 'instead Of embarrassing commerce
der piles of regulating laws duties, and prohibit
tons il should be relieved from all its shackes in all
parts of the world. Would even single nation be-
gin with the Upted States this system of free
merce, il would be advisable to begin il with that
nation" And to convince the world that our gov
ernment has swerved from this policy, it is
again proclaimed and in precisely the words,
in $685. in official report from the Department of
State. Whenever Spain permits her officials in Cuba
TO remove or modify the exorbitant charge of
81 80 per ton which is exacted on American vessels
government of the fact the President of the United
States will Immediately thereafter order the removal,
to corresponding extent of every restriction or
discrimination which the act of Congress of 1884 i'm
poses upon Spanish vessels entering the United
States ports from that island. But until that is done,
Spain must be content with the privilege granted
to her flag Of entering United States ports free of
any tonnage duty whatever when they from
her peninsular ports in Europe. The increased re-
turns of trade for 1855 and 1885, when our flag for
the first time enjoyed similar equality with the
tional flag in those ports, will il is to be hoped, sup
ply motive for giving to her possessions in the An
TILES the benefit Of the liberal principles which
have already contributed so much to extend and
augment the commerce between the two countries
With her unsurpassed natural advantages -her great
agricultural manufacturing, and mineral resources
her thirteen millions of people-and, above all, with
the proud mementoes of her ancient commercial re-
nown perpctnated in the very names of her cities
and in the relics of their Greek and Phunican found
ers, which time has not yet entirely destroyed
Spain can equal Great Britain in maritime and com
mercial prosperity if she will only initiate her in her
maritime and commercial legislation. Let her do
this and in the arts of peaceful commerccin all
that can contribute to the re-brth development of
maritime power and industrial progress--she viii

WESTERN PROGRESS.

The efforts making to bring the great West
we mean west of the Mississippi into closer and
speedier communication with the northern Atlantic
cities border the marvellous. The following an
nouncement appears in last Mondays issue of the
Cleveland (0hio) Plain Dealer:
Arrangements perfected with the Cleveland
Beefontaino, indianapolis, Teue Haute, and Alton rail
roads to take passengers from Cleveland through to St.
Louis in just day and lea minutes Passengers leave
here at q p M, and the next day at I5, p M they
are in st. Louis Who would have thought it This
beats all other routes TO this great trading mart of the
West in time and directnes The route too is well of
cered and passengers count the utmost and
attention. Hon. John Brough president Of the Main
Line conemplaes making his residence in this city, and
will be assisted by Mr. Brooks the well-known local
railroad agent Major Fifeld, q prince of a fellow
among railroad kings lives at Sc. Louis, and has gen
c supenendency of the travel this grand Western
Appian way
''Cleyeland and St. Louis next door neighbors
but days ride apart Five years ago who would have
thought iti We can sup on Lake Erie white fish in
Cleveland tonight and masticate cat fish out of the mud
dy Missouri, in st Louis tomorrow night. We say TO

WHOLESALE BRIBERY.

Under the above caption the Chambersburg (Penn.)
Valley Spirit has pointed and well-written re-
marks in relation to the attempts of the opposition
to obtain the and voice of the people by large
bids and delusive promises. When (says the
Spirit our opponents find themselves hard up for
principles upon which to rally, it is not unusual for
them to have recourse TO wholesale bribery. Some
times they endeavor to corrupt the peoples at others
they essay to bribe the States. At one time they
bought the votes of all the bankrupt individuals III
the United States by promising to clear them of their
Indebtedness through the operation of bankrupt
law at another they attempted to brbe all the States
that in debt by proposing TO distribute the pro
ceeds of the sale of the public lands. The appeal to
the cupidity Of dishonest debtors successful for
a time, though tremendous reaction in public
timent soon prostrated our opponents and again gave
us the ascendency"
The Valley Spirit thus sharply alludes TO the
tissue" which know-nothingism has now raised in
Virginia
1t shows the desperate strait to which opponents
driven in certain States of the Union when they
again compelled to resort to wholesale bribery. They
again acknowledge the necessity of oorruag public sent
lnent before il will sustain them In Virginia they have
among the States They argue, Virginia owes so many
millions her share of the public lands would amount to
so much overplus billion two, which would pay
the expenses of the State forever and day Such Is
the unworthy appeal opponents are now making to
the people of Virginia We imagine the lofty dis
dan with which every truebo of that glorious old
Commonwealth will listen to this proposal to purchase his
suffrage"

Upon the opening of Judge Catos court this afternoon,

peace and preserve future harmony in the Territory
Judge Smith, Of Lawrence, member of the Kansas
bar and party interested desired to know whether this

but that these could not be thus determined until
the right Of prosccutorshp between himself las district
attorney for the United States and Mr. Neusome, the
territorial district attorney, (which is TO be argued this

Prior to 1854 nearly the whole of our exports TO
Spanish ports were hoated in Spanish bottoms-the
discriminating duties of tonnage amounting TO nearly
100 per cent, virtually excluding American vessels
from any competition with the British or Spanish
flag, even in our own carrying trade Consequently,
we may safely set down the amount assigned to the
national flag in the preceding table for 1854 the
lowest sum actually paid into the Spanish treasury
that year on this one article. In 1855 and 1856 the
exports were perhaps about equally distributed be-
tween our own and the national flags, 80 tlat the
actual amount can be easily computed The large
increase in 1856 over 1856, 1854 and 1853, is the
natural result of increased commercial intercourse
since the removal of the obnoxious discrimination
against the American flag
