B9A The ships of the Paraguay expedition are get
ting home. Some of them have got home already
From the result known and the further statements of
Commissioner BoWlin, we may estimate the amount of
reliance to be placed upon half the accounts we hear
from distant places especially from places of the road
War now is thing Of dollars and cents-a thing of
wealth and civilization. Wealth is the result of well
directed ndusry-it is in fact accumulated labor Now
how little hybrid affair." slightly white but mainly In
dian, situated away twelve hundred miles from the sea-
in the heart of South America without intercourse with
the great world, without any really skilled labor
cutlve industry could be expected to make show
ing against respectable American force, is puzzle.
With a suitable light armament on hand, and the
possession of sufficient authority by the executive gov
ernment all these little states might be kept in ORDER
without any difficulty or bloodshed They presume up
on our forbearance.
But the state of things in Europe is much more ser
ous because if war breaks out there it can hardly fail to
be great war, although not probably long one, for
none of the powers could stand the expense of pro-
tracted warfare If war breaks out in Europe, its re-
suits cannot fail to be felt at the South the depressed
price of cotton and in the advanced price of rice Upon
general interests of trade in America only less than at
the seat of hosttes for such is the intimate connection
between the different parts of the commercial world THAI
one part cannot be affected without the rest feeling it.
But apart from ths-or, perhaps we ought to say
part of it is the fact that Europe the great consumer
of our cottonthe great manufacturer of cotton goods
and the great Wearer of them, too We are consumer
for Europe and Europe is consumer for MS. the means
of our customers wasted worse than wasted in
war and mutual destruction, we look for as good
market for our cotton and other produce? We think
not It won't do to say that if Europe don't take
cotton for her factories be worked up by the fac
tories of the Norhthat is not the thing the thing is
to get the people able to the goods for them
If the European factories soppedf the means Of her
people are wasted those people buy and pay for
goods? If not how is cotton to maintain its present
remunerative price?
This is different thing from the Russian war. Then
industry was little disturbed. Russia not being much
of manufacturing country, and her navy being INSULT
Gent to keep the sea- general but slightly
interrupted But if Austria and France 60 to war; the
whole German body must become involved and, second
to England Germany is the great of cotton
greater indeed than France and far greater than Italy
tnent of Europe.
Now, although the primary or at least the ostenslbe
cause of quarrel arises out of Italian affairs
presume for moment that hosttes, if once common
ced will be confined to that country. The French, now
as formerly will cross the Rhine and all central Europe
will be in blaze
Wilson.
The above is the name of beautiful and thriving
town on the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad, said to
occupy the highest point 8ctween the lermi of the
Railroad 1t is high dry and healthy, its population
moral and intelligent 1t possesses at least fair pro-
portion of wealth. its merchants do good business, and
the county, of which it is the seat of government
quite prosperous Wilson, among other things possesses
most extensive educational facilities. With all these
elements of prosperity Wilson may fairly be expected
to 90 ahead and it does 60 ahead with such popula
ton-with splendid opportunities for sending children C
school, it ought to be desirable place Of residence and
it is but
