Il is generally conceded, we believe,
that China Is pretty densely peopled,
while the question, whether the moon is
Inhabited or not, has not been very def
nitely settled. Here then is one point in
ayor Of giving China the preference
over the moon, as place for planting a
college. Then our intercourse, both as
q nation and a people, is more intimate
and extensive with the Celestials than
with the inhabitants Of the moon, pro-
vided that queenly orb be inhabited. A
third, and by no means unimportant
consideration, is the fact that while our
commercial relations arc becoming very
extensive with the celestial empire, the
mutual ignorance Of the languages
spoken by the hundreds Of millions Of
people in whose interests these CONNER
eisl relations exist, and are destined TO
expand TO an almost incalculable ex-
senS, would seem TO require some meth
cd by which these hundreds Of millions
could be made better acquainted with
each others language. This knowledge
would seem an absolute necessity for the
successful prosecution of commerce
that must prove source of great ma
aonal power on our part A fourth
consideration, but one which politicians
may think government has little bust
ness with, is moral and religious one
but also largely and intimately connect
I'd with the civilization of the age.

that within a few years railway commu-

and other Asiatic immigration be

the commercial interests Of this country
and its future stability and welfare, may
be the establishment OF an American

IN our commerce must be salutary. but
