THE PASSAGE Across TBE IsTHxUs.-The sail
ing Of tie steamship Washington, Of the White 4
stcbbins line for San Juan del Norte. has been
postponed until the sd inst, and there viii be
time enough In the interval TO arrive al some
definite understanding o. to The prospects Of
her passengers getting over the Transit route
without the obstruction and annoyance 10 which
they we're subjected on the previous voyage. Our
government should zee to this in time. There
have been too much fooIing and child's play about
this business - the Transit TO our Pacific States
already. rs the arrangement entered into be-
tween The Eicaraguan government and the
WhiteStebbins Company, all differences be-
tween the two contracting parties were to have
been settled by arbitration. Up TO this time
there has been no arbitration, aud hence the con-
tract holds good. Our government should send
out positive directions, about which there can be
no mistake, to the American authorities in those
waters, that the Washington's passengers should
be sent safely across the isthmus without inter
ference from any parties whatsoever.

Our CoNMERCz AND NAVAL DEFEKCEs.--
We reoeI tly cslle1 attention TO the alarming
disparity existing between the present extent Of
our commerce our means Of naval defence
We showed that whilst we are In advance OF all
other nations in the rapid extension Of our CON-
mercial marine, we are displaying ouipable In
difference to the fact that in all foreign navies
steam frigates and sloops are being substituted
for the old sailing vessels Of war. The following
extract from an article In the London Ship
ping Gazette proves that our progress in the first
respect is engaging the jealous observation Of
our English contemporaries
Az matter Of fact VIC may state that, between the
ysers 1866 and 1855 the number OF chips butt IN the
by COS representing 100 Of snnagean excess which
would NO doubt have been continued but FOR the com
nerca disturbance or 1851 Ths facs Is somewhat ss
nifcant when we reject that illustrates the activity OF
our greatest rival the rival who excludes US
peremptory from most important branch Of his carry
ing trade
The Gasssts no doubt chuekles over the refec-
ton that the enormous interests which we are
thus developing would, owing to the short sight
edness or Indifference Of Congress, be placed en-
tirely at the mercy Of the immense steam navy
which England is creating. in the event Of war
breaking out between the two countries We
have the same danger to ~apprehead from
France, which Is taking equal pains to adapt her
navy to the exigencies OF modern warfare. II is
now generally admitted that for all purposes,
whether Of invasion or Of defence, sailing vessels
have become next to useless Whilst they are
numbering on to their destinations, or are kept
battering away at heavy fortresses, squadron
of light propellers and ganboats will have
already decided the fate of campaign. by en-
tering the smaller harbors and rivers, capturing
the shipping and infiicting an incalculable
amount of general damage. These arc the dan
gers that we have to apprehend, and for which
we arc wholly unprepared. We may con-
graduate ourselves on the extraordinary in
crease of our commercial marine; but in our
present defenceless state that fact judgments
rather than diminishes our motives for anxiety.
The growth OF the interests that we have to pro-
tect, without an adequate increase in our means
Of defence is not fact for us to sleep comforta-
bly, upon. Congress should at once devote its
attention to this subject; it has an Importance
should be given to the Secretary Of the Navy to
have all sailing vessels of war which will admit
Of the alteration adapted with propellers, and
to have at least twenty fast light draught war
steamers built in addition. This is the lowest
estimate Of the amount Of naval force which is
deemed necessary for the protection of our com
merce. Without II we had better sing small in
our disputes with foreign governments.

We have invariably ignored the prae-
tice of cutting potatoes to plant, suPPos-
Tag that nature put them in her fayOrgse
form fer reproduction, and 10 nourish
the Young plant; and that by cutting
them we opened the vessels for the evap-
oratioa Of nutritivs qualities, and les-
ssned the means of nourishment which
Young plants draw from the seed.
The experience OF the last season has
brought us results in this matter, which
il continued success attends il, will
prove Of some importance.
Early in May last we turned over q
piecs Of sod ground, and towards the
close sf the month planted it with whole
potatoes. When this was planted, haY-
tng few bushels leis, we piowed Aaoth-
ar piaoe adjoining the one already plant
ed. Thia was in June. The seed pota-
tatoes for this piece ware cut IN such
small pieces thai less than half the guam
tity was used than was Ia the former
case. The same variety Of potatoes
we're planted on each piece, and tue same
tilIaee given. No manure was used ex'
eept a tablespoon full Of plaster tc
each bill,
When the potatoes we're dag, late in
October, one-third Of those on this
grouAd where the seed was planted whOl'
we're made worthless by the rot. Whsre
they we're eat for planting, the potatoes
we're Of good size with scarce any ap,
/ peaFanee OF rot.
Such are the ways Of management ant
the results, and shere We leave the mat
ser, for it We would We can not tel
whether the same coarse would lead e
Ghe same end in . second trial. Atmos
pherie, and other auses which we can
not control might change the whole re-
salt. One thing, however, if cut pota

shat would other wise be planted may b
saved for other purposes each ysar. !

I'VE de- NOS agree with these WasAiRg-
ton isttsE writer's who represent SsnatoE
Douglas as adsfansa polisicians-"s
dead lion &a.n--nam 90 suggestive OF
what thsy wiah him to be; SoE Douglas
Is far fEom ksing dead. He is rather
living lion, covering il may be for Hao"
msnt, bat only 10 EpEiag upon the prey
he has been watching 90 long.
~ Ts bs appreciated, it needs to be
said that the ahsvs 10 frsm one Of the
most violsus Black Republicans papers in
TlIinois--aAs "Frss Democrat, !" publish
ed at Galesburg. II proves nothing bus
this-that Ghs Black Republicans do Ros
regard Judgs Douglas IS one Of them
selves, nor aa likely TO become sO-shas
they do nos anaorse and approve his Po-
litlcal views, as has bsan charged in
some quarters, bus thai although as muoh
opposed to him aow a. ever before, shsy
have come TO the esaelusion that il is no
longer Of any use to deny to him the
highest quality Of statssmanship, or to
question hia honesty, integrity, frmnsss,
snd consistency. His position now, as it
has always been, is intellectually as the
head Of the Democratic party, and that
position he will SUCCESSFULLY maintain.
