WAR AND INvENTION..-The age seems prolific
of great enterprises. In this country we are all
devoting ourselves to the science of war, and
have already invented iron-clad forts and bate
ries and iron-clad Monitors and Merrimacs. In
every part of Europe similar spirit of improve
ment and invention is observable, although di-
rected to other objects. England is preparing
10 renew the attempt to lay the Atlantic tele-
graph cable; China and Australia are being
snited by the same means; Russia is perfecting
a vast system Of railways, and an overland tele-
graph to this country is debated; France is tun-
nelling the Alps, and French engineer pro-
poses to build o bridge across the Straits of
Messina and connect the island with the main
land. Heads and hands, therefore, are very
busy In Europe, and great enterprises are the
order Of the day.
Singularly enough all these improvements
are the results Of war or preparations against
war. The Trent affair revived the Atlantic
telegraph. The Chinese emeute connects that
caused the construction of railways
In Russia by demonstrating the necessi-
ty Of such lines of communication.
France tunnels the Alps to bring Italy
more closely within her reach. In this country
She war has produced almost countless inven-
fions from camp chests to monster guns, and
from stecl-pointed balls to iron-clad batteries.
Cannon balls thus open the way for civiliza-
tion, and as we become more civilized our can
non balls are made larger and do more execu.
tion. In 1912 twenty.four pound balls wero
considered large A few years later sixty-four
Founders were terrible missiles. During the
Trent affair England attempted to scarce us
with one hundred Founders, Of Armstrong;
make. Now we have one hundred and twenty
pound balls fired from the Monitor, four hun.
dred and sixty-ninc pound balls fired from the
Lincoln gun at Fortress Monroe, and two can
non are in process of manufacture which will
carry balls weighing one thousand and ninety
pounds. This is progress indeed; and, as every
improvement in the science of war makes peace
more certain and permanent, we may conf
dently hope that our monster cannon with their

TRADE AND COMMERCE Follow THE FLAG
Secretary Chase has issued circular removing
as far as possible the restrictions upon CONNER
cial Intercourse between the loyal States and
parts of States which had been heretofore de-
clared by the President to be in insurrection,
but are now occupied and controlled by the
Union forces. The trade of the North and West
Is therefore resumed, not only with Kentucky,
but Tennessee, as far as Nashville, on the Cum
berland, and Savannah and Pittsburg, on the
Tennessee. Thus commerce follows the flag.
and the mails and expresses will also accom-
pany it wherever it moves. How great the re-
lief to the Union men of the South, so distress
ed by the blockade of Cairo and New Orleans,
which cut off from them all intercourse with
the North and with foreign countries, and de-
prived them of many of the necessaries of life,
and nearly all its luxuries and comforts. 1t
is q relief to the rebels themselves-we
mean those of them not in arms-and,
II the truth were known. it is probable that
they are rejoicing secretly in their hearts that
they are saved from the incubus of the insur-
gent army, which was devouring their substance,
and at the same time causing them to suffer the
most terrible privations from want of salt, tea
coffee, medicines, clothes, boots and shoes and
other essentials of civilization. The change
will also benefit the Western and Northern
Graders. who have been heretofore shut out from
communication with their accustomed markets
In the South. There will be some difficulty at
first on account of the bogus Southern money
which universally prevails; but in short time
that will be got rid of, and genuine currency
will take its place. 1t is hoped that in three
months the benefits of free commercial inter-
course will extend over every part of the South
where the rebel flag now waves

THE BURLINGTON ABOLITION Row.-We have
received communication from resident in
Burlington, N. j., calling in question the cor
rectness of some of the statements made in our
correspondents report of the late abolition dis
turbance in that city. In reply, We have to
state that our correspondent obtained his infor-
nation from reliable and respectable sources,
including the Mayor of the city himself And
further, when bringing the objections under
close scrutiny, we do not see that they possess
material weight It is possible that some things
might have been done, and some things said,
which did not come clearly within the cogni-
zance or hearing of our Burlington informant;
and to say that the reverend speaker did
not allude to General Mcclellan by name, but
to the peaceful war policy of the commander
of the Army Of the Potomac" is sneer and
cause. That Rev. Mr.. Aaron was expected to
reply to Colonel Wallis address, delivered at
the invitation of the Common Council of Bur-
lington, is a fact as notorious as that he did so
on the occasion in question. As for the number
of eggs thrown, our informant probably did not
like their odor sufficiently well to remain long
enough to count them. And as to the Rev. Mr..
Aaron not belonging to the Garrison abolition
school, it is only question between the Garri-
son and Aaron schools which can go the great
est length to overturn the constitution. In
other respects, the account of the row
given by our Burlington volunteer goes to
show that the feeling in opposition to the abo-
ltionists in that city is deeper and more firmly
rooted than there was before reason to believe
was really the case. The sentiment in favor of
the Union is unanimous among nearly oil class
es in Burlington, and the repugnance to aboli-
ton lecturers arises from the circumstance that
nigger than they do Of the welfare and happi-
ness of our country and the white people in it.
