give Beaufort or Savannah all its commerce.
Partition the State and inkblot her name

steamers between San Francisco and China.
Make New York tho stock market Of the

you want a review. Laughtor,l Aug

We are getting cramped, and crowded, and
we must have an outlet for the rush ofemi-

England has slept 10 the middle Of the bed

times are changing. The speck on the
horizon is already bigger than an OK cart.
Laughter. The fires Of free opinions have
been smoldering in Europe for nearly fifteen
years Poor Poland is in sackcloth and
ashes Hungary sleeps awakingly, and
will shortly spring upon the enemy's camp,
when Caprera's chief will land in Venice.
France groans under disordored commerce
and diseased finance. Europe has
enough TO look after without troubling her
self with America. Let America lock her
gates for while-economize--buy no for
eign fabrics--liyo within herself f--manu-
facture her own cotton, and take the profit
we have SO long given to England. Our
strength is shown by this contest. Six
hours of such a rebellion would have chang
ed a dynasty in France; six days in Aus
tria, or Prussia, or Spain. Six weeks with
out Ministry would capsize the English
Constitution, but after six months Of pre-
Paration America begins to show her
strength. et,
1t was a clever act of the President in
this great national game Of chess, to give
up Fort. Sumter--always give a castle to
checkmate your opponent, Hear, hear.
The Cabinet have done nobly; Seward up
held our foreign relations and proved the
man we knew he was. So has Chase; and
Welles, with his 500 ships of war, armed

100000 fighting men. Hear, aud cheers
