Long Voyage I'm a Great Country.

1t requires facts like the following from
the Missouri Republican to impress upon
the mind the immense magnitude of our
country:
The steamer Spread Eagle, in connection
with the Chippewa, has just completed one
of the most remarkable trips on record in
the navigation of western rivers, having ira
versed the Missouri River from its mouth to
Fort Benton-a point within sixty miles of
the headwaters of the Columbia, and three
thousand one hundred and twenty miles
above the mouth of the Missouri. This is
nine hundred miles above the mouth of the
Yellow Stone, and seven hundred miles fur.
ther than any other steamboat has ever been.
The Spread Eagle left st. Louis on the 18th
of May-three days after the Chippewa
and returned, having made voyage of more
than $500 miles in seventy.nine days. The
Indians were quiet, and expressed themselves
we'll satisfied with their presents. Game
above the mouth of the Yellow Stone was
very abundant. Large herds of buffalo, elk
and mountain sheep might be seen at any
moment, together with any quantity Of
grizzly bears. The trip has been demon
strated to be practicable, the Chippewa
having made it in low water.

An Embarrassed Candidate.

The Democrats of Ohio are enjoying them
selves greatly at the expense of Mr.. Ghol-
son, the Republican candidate for Judge of
the Supreme Court of Ohio, who is accused
Of having been formerly large STAKEHOLDER
in Mississippi, but, having disposed of his
slaves at auction, removed to Ohio, and now
hangs out as bright light of Republican
ism. The Cleveland Plaindealer publishes
the following letter, just received from Mr..
E. w. Rootes, of Pontotoc, Mississippi.
The letter speaks for itself. Here it is:
PoNToToc, Miss, Aug. 8, 1859.
SIR: Your favor of the 9th ult., addressed
to W. II. H. Tison, ESQ.,, was received by last
mall Mr. Tison resides forty miles from this
place, and will not probably be here before our
next [December] court. | will Immediately
forward your letter to his post Office. but as it
is likely it will not find him at home, l feel it
my duty to furnish you with the desired inform
alton myself.
l know, of my own knowledge, that Judge
Gholson, of your State, did o,cn Slaves while he
was a citizen of this State, and THAT HE DID
SELL THEM BEFORE LEAVING THIS STATE
FOR OHIO. Judge G. lived liz this town dur
ing the whole of his citizenship in this State ;
therefore, am enabled to speak positively in re-
gard to his having o,cned SLAVES, and of his hao.
ing sold them just before Leaving Mississippi for
OHIO. Some Of the SLAVES, If not all of them
WHICH HE SOLD, are still in this county. and
doubt not the purchasers of them have Judge
GhOlson's bill of sale. Of this however, l am
not certain. as have not had an opportunity to
see any of them since the receipt of your letter.
l will, in the course of few days, furnish you
with such information in regard to the matter
as not even Giddings ,cM dare to question
enclose herewith copy of our country pa
per containing an article in reference to the
matter, which will explain itself.
| can scarcely believe that Judge GhOlson
will deny that he sold his slaves after he had
determined to leave this State for Ohio.
Judge Gholson moved to this town from Vir.
ginia in the year 1884. and continued to live
here till he removed to Ohio. Judge G. is we'll
acquainted with the writer of this letter, and
will not, l think, deny any statement herein
made. His old friends here feel and utter the
strongest indignation at the course which he
has lately pursued. There is proposition to
hold public meeting to give expression to the
feelings and opinions of the community in re-
gard to his present position before the people
of Ohio.
I have written the foregoing quite hurriedly.
and have doubtless omitted to mention many
facts that you would be pleased to learn; but,
as l before mentioned, l will send, in the course
of five or six days, as much information, and
that well authenticated, as will amply confirm
all that have stated.
Yours, very truly. E. W. ROOTES.

THE WEEKLY PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT

and full expose of the doctrine and policy,
in the very words of its Prophet, SO far as
l can recall them. do not believe Presi.
dent Young himself could present them in
terms calculated to render them less obnox-
ious to the Gentle world than the above.
But l have a right to add here, because
said it to the assembled chiefs at the close of
the above colloquy, that the degradation Tor,
if you please, the restriction) of Woman to
the single Office of collaborating and its &C.
cessories, is an inevitable consequence of the
system here paramount, I have not observed
sign in the streets, an advertisement in the
journals, of this Mormon metropolis, where
by a woman proposes to do anything what
ever. No Mormon has ever cited to me his
wife's or any woman's opinion on any sub
ject; no Mormon woman has been intro
duced or has spoken to me and, though I
have been asked to visit Mormons in their
houses, no one has spoken of his wife Tor
wives) desiring to see me, or his desiring me
to make her Tor their) acquaintance, or vol
unfairly indicated the existence of such a
being or beings. I will not attempt to
report our talk on this subject, because,
unlike what have above given, it assumed
somewhat the character of disputation,
and 1 can hardly give it impartially; but
one remark made by President Young I
can give accurately, and it may serve as
sample of all that was offered on that side
1t was in these words, I think exactly " If
I did not consider myself competent to trans
act certain business without taking my
wife's or any woman's counsel with regard
to it, think 1 ought to let that business
alone" The spirit with regard to Woman,
Of the entire Mormon, as of all other DO.
lygamic systems, is fairly displayed in this
avowal. Let any such system become es-
tablished and prevalent, and Woman will
soon be confined to the harem, and her ap.
pearance in the street with unveiled face will
be accounted immodest. l joyfully trust
that the genius of the Nineteenth Century
tends to solution of the problem of Wo-
mans sphere and destiny radically different
from this. H.G.

Washington writer speakir

A Washington writer speaking of the
new Minister to Central America says:
BY birth a citizen of Louisiana, Mr..
Dimitry possesses in himself two rare ad-
vantages, as he unites by descent the classic
blood of ancient Greece and the pure of the
aborigines. His father, born Greek, emf
grated to Louisiana many years ago, where
he married daug liter of the cacique of one
of the civilized tribes. 1t is frequently OBJ
served that in alliances between the races of
the old and new world the issue of those
unions present some of the rarest intellectu-
al characteristics. The minister of whom
we speak is one of the most profound Swans
of the South. He is perfectly acquainted
with many of the ancient and modern lam
guages, and he is considered one of the most
judicious men of the age. His studies have
embraced all the branches of human knowl-
edge; and whether in the law of nations,
philosophy, science, literature, arts, or the
more common affairs of every day life, Mr..
Alexander Dimitry is always ready to dis
cuss whatever questions may be at issue
with torrents of brilliant and profound elo-
quence. The field of his studies inclndes all
the countries of the universe, and compre-
hends, so to say, all the civilized languages !;
and, Notwithstanding the exceedingly great
variety of his requirements, the perfection
with which he discusses all questions is so
great that whenever he treats of any par
ticular branch it appears as if he had made
that one alone the study of his life.

has been that of his minions for years, but
l will survive it now, as l have heretofore.
The more he abuses, the more firmly 1 will
hold the confidence of my constituents.
AS will readily be supposed, these scathing
remarks by Senator GwIN have raised public
feeling to fever heat. Most readers take it
for granted that BRoDERIcK must and will
challenge his colleague to mortal combat.
This is not, however, anticipated in Califor-
mia, for Mr.. BRoDER1CK, although acknowl-
edging the code, has assumed the ground, in
the beginning of this campaign, that he will
not fight. Personal collisions between
friends of the respective parties, however,
will be pretty sure to grow out of this
fierce controversy.

From Washington.

WASHINGTON, August 22.-The Admin.
istration has bestowed upon the subject of
the African slave trade its earnest atten-
ton, and with view of suppressing as far
as possible this traffic, has initiated meas
ures more efficient and more extensive than
ever before for that purpose. The squad
ron for the coast of Africa as arranged by
the Secretary of the Navy. will consist of
the following named vessels: The steamers
Mystic, Sumpter, San Jacinto, and the
Mohegan and the sloops of war Constella-
ton, the flag ship Portsmouth, Marion and
Vlncennes. The most efficient officers are
assigned to their command. Those of the
steamers Mystic and Sumpter are respec-
lively Lieut.. w. E. Leroy, and Lieut.. j. F.
Armstrong. These gentlemen were, at their
own request, ordered to the service their
vessels being of light draft, can penetrate
waters too shallow for those which have
heretofore been on that coast, besides hav-
ing the advantage of steam; hence slavers
will be more closely pursued. The Joint
treaty with England requires that the
United States shall keep there force of
80 guns, but by the recent arrangement on
the part of the Administration, the number
of guns will be 1l6. Mr.. Birney, who sue
ceeds Mr.. Morse as naval storekeeper, went
out in the Constellation with instructions to
remove the Naval depot for the African
squadron from Porto Praya d'Scands, which
is 1886 miles distant from Porto Praya'
This new depot will consequently be much
nearer than the former to the principal
points of traffic on the coast, and will, in a
great measure, obviate the necessity of long
cruises on our own coast.
There is to be an efficient naval force,
composed of the steamers Crusader, Lieut..
Moffat the Mohawk, Lieut.. Craven the
Wyandotte, Lieut.. Stanley and the Full
ton, Commander G. &. Williamson. They
are to cruise in the neighborhood of Cuba,
for the purpose of capturing any SLAYER
which may by their expertness escape the
vigilance of our naval force on the African
coast: These arrangements will soon go
into full operation.

Breadstuffs and Provisions.

The Secretary of the Treasury has fur
nished an exhibit of the aggregate value of
breadstuffs exported to foreign countries
from the United States forom 1928 to 1858.
We give the statement for the last seven
teen years, beginning with 1912. The i'm
portance of breadstuffs in our export trade
to Europe, etc., is thus fully shown, as we'll
as the part which sailed provision occupy
in our foreign export. The shipment of
breadstuffs in 1861 exceeded that of the
famous famine year, 1847, while the provis.
ions was larger in 1866 than at any pre-
vious or subsequent period. If we could rely
upon such an export "a to II millions an
nually) for the future, it would give great
stimulus to production in our country
