western passage to the Pacific, lay through
tn. great lakes, whose waters flow into the
Atlantic, and the immense rivers which car
ry navigation westward to the Pacific.
But we are detaiRing the reader from
HEsSEPrss remarkable description Of this
passage, Of which be claims with truth, the
merit OF the discovery. He continues
mark the exactness Of the oracle:
For example, We may be fJaasp1tsd into the
PaeJie Sea, by rrsrs rhich are large and eapa
bic Of carrying great rssssis. and from thence il
ID vEay EASY To 90 TO CHINA AND JAPAs-with
out crossiDg the equinoctial line, and. in all
probability Japan il ON the same Continent a.
America.
Although modern science has amended
the geography of Heunepiu in some r. speets,
it has only served to verify it in Others.
With few unimportant breaks in the chain,
modern explorations have confirmed the
theory of uninterrupted navigation by the
way Of the lakes, and the system Of northern
riyers-across the entire Continent from
the Atlantic TO the Pacific. And il is this
very path that the combined enterprise of
two great nations, is about opening to the
commerce Of Europe and America.
Il il thss that the dream Of al obscure
Franciscan-which seemed to have been bur.
led forever with his ashes suddenly reappears
after the lapse Of centuries, and the SEED hid
in the mummy's folds, takes roos--a living,
nomentous fact Of the present.

The comprehensive public spirit and

Paul have heretofore been running Ut loose
ends-- evapora,ing in idle talk. or boiling
over in occasional public meetings. Not
till yesterday were these loose and aimless
activities gathered up and adjusted. and put
in motion towards detiulte end. Yesterday
a Chamber OF Commerce was organized at
the Office OF WV, Il. MARSHALL, ESD, upon
tho broad platform laid down by the Pho
SEER AND DEaoCRAr. The meeting was
called ostensibly for the purpose Of reor-
ganzing the old Board Of Trade, which
from mere waat Of anything to do within
the narrow scope Of its protested objects
had almost fallen into Oblivion. Adopting
our suggestion, however, the defunct Board
was buried. aud new body with the more

generous enthusiasm, which argued well for
the spirit which is To animate their failure
