"Thus the great work Is advancing step by step, and the time
draws on apace when the ansmission Of intelligence from the
river to the ends Of The Garth will be like the lightning that
cometh ont Of the East and shineth even unto the West. This
-consummaton win also prove the first grand stride Of the Peace
movement, toward which many have looked forward as to
the dawn Of the millennium and the fulldlment Of the prophecy
that the sword shah be beaten iuto plovshares, and the spear
into pruning hooks, and when sthe lion and thu gamb shah lie
down together, Am0ments reelection win show even an anna
teur philosopher how difacult Il win be to bring men holding
daily commercial and friendly intercourse into general conflict
and how difficult Il will be for the ambition Of conquest and the
demon Of carnage to carry out their designs, when men are able
thus to steal the march q time; the intended victim. by always
being 6rewarned, "a enabled to be fnrearmed and when the
weak, through the s~ympsthies Of surrounding nations and the
development Of the sentiment Of universal Brotherhood, shall be
able to oppose force with corresponding force, and thus render
the sarbitrament Of the sword ten times more uncertain than at
any former period In the worlds history And the sentiment Of
the Statesmen and dipsomatists already sets In a direction to
favor this result. That the union Of the Eastern and Western
Continents by the Geographic cord, will promote peace and good
win we have not q doubt. In this work VIC cannot but be happy
to recognize the important part which our youthful country has
performed, first in producing the grand instrument by which the
work is to be c-onsummated, and secondly in the labors Of Mr..
Field, who has been SO successful in the discharge Of the fnan-
cil duties which he undertook. Let US hope that no untoward
circumstances may occur to delay the contamination"

LATER FROM MELBoURNE--By the arrival of the

Watcher, sailed August 25, and may touch here
enroute to San Francisco. We notice that the electric
telegraph is getting into use in Victoria, and several
lines have been established from Melbourne to the
mining settlements The papers contain no news

embroglios filing about four-6hhs of each issue.
HONOLULU are pleased to notice the
efforts Of this society to extend its benefits to the COM

delivered before the society, and we learn that several
o'ne's are IN contemplation. Where evening enter
tainments are 50 rare as here, all should encourage
every enort made to improve and entertain our
resident and transient population. We hear that a
lecture on Sir Walter Raleigh will be delivered before
the Lyceum in two or three weeks. The sub;ect Ia
