SECRETARY OF FSTATE.-Major w. II. Weeks,
an elector on the Republican Ticket during
the last Presidential Election, and one of
the most eneegetic and entertaining speak
ers 10 aid Of the Republican cause during
the late canvass, is to be Secretary of State
under Governor Stanford's administration.
The selection we consider good one. Ma
jor Weeks is lawyer of ability and elo-
quence, of sound good sense, and with suffi-
cient Democratic leaven 10 his composition
to entertain enlarged and conservative ideas
as to matters of public and political policy.
During the late canvass he was the most
welcome of public speakers. for while be
worked with incompatible enthusiasm for
the interests of his party, he did not deem
it necessary to call to his aid SANDER, abuse
and vituperatiOn in alluding to bis politi-
cal opponents. We like to see such men
elevated to high and responsible positions
by their party, for such selection is pro-
ductive of great deal Of good and serves
to strengthen, rather than weaken the par
ty interested. We doubt not the choice of
Major Weeks for the position named. will
be acceptable to the people: generally
rs. f. Spirit of the Times.

ing telegraphic line connecting Europe,

during four years, had time TO take shape
and form, SO that at the commencement of
the present year the supreme sanction was
given 10 the project for constructing tel
egraphic line in the countries bordering on
the Amoor aud the OussOuri, from Nikolai-
ewsk by Kabarovka to the port of NovgO-
rod, 1900 versts.) the most important
point OF the possessions recently annexed
TO Russia on the sea of Japan. The estab-
lishment of this line is undertaken by the
Ministry of Marine, at its cost and under
its direction; and at the same time the su-
perior direction of the means of communi-
cation Board of Works. has commenced
the construction of a line starting from
Kasan in the direction of Siberia, which
proposes opening, at the end of the present
year. telegraphic communication from
Kasan TO Omsk, 900 versts,) and to con-
tiuue ii afterwards to Irkutsk, distance of
2,475 versts from Omsk. Thus, probably,
within two or three years on the one side
there will be telegraphic communication
between Europe and Asia to Irkutsk, and,
on the other hand, our new colonies on the
Amoor and Oussouri will be connected with
each other aud with our principal ports on
the japanese waters. Thus, of the extent
of 10000 versts which the Siberian tele-
graph will embrace, there only remains the
central portion, that of Irkutsk by Kiakhta
to Khabarovka, about $500 versts, where
as yet nothing has been settled; but it is
beyond doubt that as soon as the works
actually projected shall have been success
fully completed, this intermediate line will
be constructed; and thus within four or five
years at the least the gigantic project of a
telegraphic communication from Europe to
the distant lands on the shores of the Pacific
Ocean will be realized"
