No. Two. BY it. San Francisco will be-
come the great entrepot for the A-i,:ic
trade, just as she now is the enfrepOt for
the Eastern and European trad. that sup.

trade she will then lose. II the traffic in

then will she be the loser by this impor-
tant change in the curfen. Of nrr business.
But this is only the fist part of the drama
TO b. enacted in our real life ofthe future,
according to this northern seer. When
the North~rn Railroad. or the northern
branch to Puget S,und is completed. then
will begin quite other scenes. Then. the
distance from the Eastern cities to the
Pacific harbors on Puget Sound being less.
by railroad. than to San Francisco, and
at the 'mD time the distance by stram"r-
I c..>r, t1., Il
Sound being al o less than from the same
regions to San Francisco. and the cost of
all articles Of consumption most needed,
as well as harbor expenses, and fuel. and
lumber, etc, being much less on Puget
Sound than on San Francisco Bay. why
of course, it fol ows that then or great
city will los" the greater portion ofeve,
its oriental trade, also. Alas, poor fallen
city! How dreary seem thy fortunes in
the near future, as forecast by tn. p oplet-
ic eye Of this ori.nt- looking northern seer
Then will come the time foretold by the
" great mind and M .mber of L,rd Derhy's
whose sec0nd-sight and
English vision predicted that . in less than
a century the now great forests Of the

sake. the certainty Of the ultimate substi-
tuition of the oriental traffic, in place Of our
present importing business with the East
