AMERICAN CITIZENS GoNG TO ErRopE.-The
numbers of American citizens going to Europe
this year are unprecedented. Already ten thou
sand must have left in steamers, and the season
is not yet over. II is estimated that each ira
weller spends on an average $1,000. The total
amount spent by ten thousand persons would
thus be $4,000, 000-ffty millions. American
travel must therefore benefit Europe in a very
great degree. Since the Atlantic has been
bridged by steam, and America has been
brought nearer to Europe than many parts of
Europe are 10 each other the intercourse be-
tween the United States andSthe Old World has
increased In wonderful degree. The effect Of
this intercourse upon the political institutions
of Europe will soon be felt. 1t will gradually
revolutionize them, and elevate the masses to
self government. On the other hand,
the American people will be enriched
by the treasures Of art and science and
literature 10 be found in the countries where
they sojourn. Thus the dividing ocean, really
unites and brings together the most distant
nations. But while American travel to Europe
is useful to both worlds, we think that many
would do well to first visit the fairest portions Of
their own country If 1t were for no other pur-
pose than that they may be qualified to give an
opinion upon its scenery to those whom they
will meet with in their foreign travels. and that
they may be able to compare it with the most
celebrated spots in Europe-for instance the
Hudson with the Rhine and the bay Of New
York with that Of Naples. 1t il not creditable
for Americans TO seek the beauties Of Nature
under foreign skies, while they treat with
neglect hose WHICH lie beneath hcir own.

NONSENSE on THE PorIncIANs.-The politicians
of the mere party press are continually putting
forth the rankest nonsense about the prospects
OF the different candidates for the Presidency.
Take, for example. the silly and ridiculous as
sertion Of the Richmond Wig, that Bell and
Everett will carry five Northern States-Massa-
chusetts, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode
Island and California-as well as the entire
South. Now every one who knows anything
knows that the whole North, except, perhaps
some of The border States, such as Pennsylva-
mia, and it may be Illinois, will go for Lincoln
while the South will unquestionsbly support
the most prominent man who represents South.
ern views. and that is John c. Breckenridge.
These newspaper politicians, while they are
relieving themselves Of much blatant nonsense.
