IMPORTANT TRADE REGULATIONS IN BR AzTI.-
The Emperor Of Brazil recently issued an Orr
in reference 10 the coastwise trade of his en-
pire which is destined to bring about import
ant results. It also shows that he is anxious to
develop and increase the commerce Of that
country, and, to accomplish that end, is willing
to open the doors to foreign merchant vessels.
to carry on transport and coastwise trade bs-
tween the ports in the empire, convey produce
and all kinds Of merchandise until the first
day Of January. 1858. This cannot fail to open
an important trade with Brazil and enable the
outside world to know more about the valley
OF the amazon and its commerce than hereto
fore. In this respect the shipowners and bnild-
e-s of this country ought to be specially bene-
flied. The experience which they have had
in building steamers for our rivers and in con-
Quoting our internal commerce will be Of great
practical value to them in this case.
When the Chinese government was finally
induced to introduce steam navigation on it,
rivers and coasts the American style of river
steamers was selected in preference 10 all
others for that trade. The Chinese saw that
they were better adapted for the navigation Of
their rivers than those of any other country. A
great demand at once sprung up. This arose
from the fact that the enormous traffic on our
rivers and that great experience had enabled our
merchants to bring that kind of vessel nearer
to perfection than those of any other country.
The opening Of the trade in Brazil will i'll thiF
respect be Of special benefit to our merchants
and will no doubt develop trade between the
northern and southern hemispheres Of this
continent that win be perfectly astonishing. It
shows, on the other hand, o liberal spirit ON tho
part Of the Emperor, and we predict that tho
results will prove SO beneficial that instead OF
preventing the trade at the time that the per-
init expires he will be anxious to extend it

the government full statement Of the affair.

toadies England, he toadies France, and he
even toadies Spain, politically insignificant
though she is. This is not policy for great
nation to pursue. Let us be just; let US even
be generous in our dealings with other Powers;
but do not let US compromise either our inter-
ests or dignity. The sooner Mr.. Seward takes

CONDITION or TER NATIoyAi. BAN&a.-The
recent revelations as TO tbc insolvcnt condi-
ton Of several national bank. ought to arouse
public attention to the whole of them and to
the entire system. The searching propositions
introduced into Congress with regard 10 them
are very well rs far "a thcy 20: but they do
not 90 tar enough. Ii The banks right under
the eyes Of the government al Washington and
in the vicinity, with all the advantages of
heavy government deposits to operate upon
and sustain them, make such disgraccful fail
ures as We have Witnessed. what may not be
the condition of others . The mass- of the
people are deluded by these banks being
called national and having sort Of connec-
ton with the government, and trust them with
then money and confidence, when. in fact,
they arc only private corporations. The gov
ernmcnt is not responsible for their transac-
tons, nor, as we maintain, for their circulating
notes beyond what their deposited bonds and
assets may reaxze. The people have been
msled by the action Of Congress in creating
these banks, ana the government iss morally re-
sponsible to protect them from evil conse-
quences as far - II is abe. We demand, there
fore, thorough investigation into.the affairs Of
the national banks and promps and perisdi-
cal exhibit Of their transactions to the public.
But, above all, the whole system which is sus-
ceptibe of such frauds should be abolished.
The profits Of circulation, which the govern
ment now makes free gift of to these private
monopollss, ought to be saved and appropri-
atcd to paying the national debt This In q
far more important question than that Of the
negro, and we hope Congress will have sense
and patriotism enough to attend to II before
adjourning and before the country be perma-
nenty saddled by such gigantic and danger
GUS monopoly.

A GRAND FIZZLE.

One hundred posters were printed at
the Standard Office last week, announc.
ing a great Democratic meeting at Ham
den on Friday, the 2lst. Posters were
also printed at the Times Office in Ports
mouth. Half fare arrangements were
made with the rail roads We came up
from Monroe Furnace on the train that
morning, and no one got aboard except
the regular passengers, until the train
arrived at Jackson Here some twenty
or thirty got upon the train.
1t had been announced that Gen.
Thomas Ewing, of Kansas, Judge Thur
man of Columbus, and Gen. Rousseau
OF Kentucky, would be there. When
the train came down in the evening we
learned that Mr.. Moore was the only
speaker, and the Democrats admitted
that not over six hundred voters were
at the meeting. 1t was one Of the most

POLL BOOKS.

The trustees of the several townships
in Jackson co. are requested to arrange
their poll books in the same order in
which the ticket is printed in the
Standard The two parties will have
tickets arranged in the same order, and
it will thus be great advantage to trus-
tees in counting out the tickets, without
having to change the order of marking
every time the different tickets are taken
out of the box. For instance, after the
state ticket, Congressman, Judge, &c,
write first, Probate Judge, then Audit
or then Clerk, then Sheriff, &c.
