strengthens in proportion to the size of the
community. A nation must bring its
wealth across a sea, and a fortiora, we
must infer that the only chance the globe
has for growing rich all over, is by trade
with the moon, or some other outlying prov

The folly of this doctrine has only to be
stated to be fully realized. Wealth cannot

HARD LUcK-Govornor George NJ Bibb
was another of my old friends That man
was positively almost mad on the subject
of fishing. He always fished with bait,
aud in boat was as patient as the day
was long. He was kind hearted genial
generous to a fault, great talker, and had
so many harmless eccentricities, that he was
wont to keep his fishing companions in a
continual roar of laughter. After an I'M
lucky day, in his perverseness he would
sometimes spend the greater part of the
night upon the river, as if determined to
turn the tide of luck in his favor. He fish
ed with me i'll those days when he was
Secretary of the Treasury, and also in those
more unfortunate days when, for bare
seaport, he held a subordinate position in
that same department budding though paid
by the Attorney General.
Many amusing stor les are related of
him and | give you one Of them. One
day, early in the morning, be planted HIM
self on certain wharf for qniet day of
sporting. At noon friend passed by and
and asked him about his luck 81 hahn

are scarce" At shutdown another friend
passed by and seeing handsome yellow
frog crouching by the side of the Governor,
and evidently enjoying the scenery sudden
ly exclaimed whats that" That re-
piled the Governor with look of horror

again reduced to a revenue orsenli. free trade
standard. The receipts of gold from Gala
fornia supplied this country with exchange
for many years; but the mononiania for
buying and selling foreign manufactures
more than kept pace with our exports of
domestic produce, and III 1857 we had an
other season of bankruptcy and ruined for

was preceded by large exports Of specie and

exhausted, we must break.

other terrible reyulsion. Our imports in 1864

our exports, exclusive of specie were not

reduced TO specie is 1925, 900, 900. leaving a
defect Of 5000, 100000 to be made up in
specie and national bonds. $40 000 600 OF
the specie exported has been used to pay in

enormous balance of SAG, 100000 to be
paid in national bonds at about fifty cents

With the same policy now pursued, by
the end of 1865 Europe will hold at least
81, 800, 900, 900 of our railroad bonds ano
national stocks and bonds, involving the
export ofat least $90,000.00 of cash
per annum, to pay the interest alone. The
vast export of specie to Europe, to pay in
