PLAYED 0UT.-While the war Vas in
progress,a and gold going upat q race-horse
speed, until it reached So 80, the mer-
chants kept pace with it, IN putting up
the prices Of their goods, and did not fail
to tell their customers: "Gold is up to-
day, and goods must necessarily follow"
Buyers paid the enormous advance be-
cause they could not help themselves
But when gold dropped from $50 to 125,
the sane merchants, if asked why goods
did not come down on the same principle
that they vent up, would say: "oh-ah-
Jss-gold is down; but you see that does
not affect the price Of goods" Now that
gold has again advanced q few cents, they
are getting up their old cry Of, "Goldi is
up" People are not such ninnys as to be
fooled twice, and they wilLfnd that that
dodge is played out.

An IRON CLAD AT SBA.-Our navy has
a new feather in its cap in the recent sue
cessful crossing of the ocean by the mon
itor Mlantonomah. the first vessel of her
class to cross the Atlantic, though the
Monadnock, which has just arrived at
San Francisco by way Of Cape Horn, has
made a much longer and equally perilous
voyage. The Miantonomah Of course ex-
cites much curiosity wherever she goes.
and at st. Johns, n. F., where she
touched on her voyage, the signal man, In
amazement, left his signal station on the
hill and reported "a sinking steamer COM
ing in" At Queenstown, Ireland, the
Miantonomah's salute was returned from
the Black Prince. q six thousand ton Eng
lish iron clad trigate, condemned and now
serving as guard-ship there ; and the off,
GERS Of the iron-clad frigate Achilles, un-
der whose bow the little monitor passed,
looked down upon her with establishment,
M though totally unable TO comprehend
her character. Capt. Fox, assistant Sec
Rotary Of the navy, who went out in the
Miantonomah, writes to the navy depart
ment that our monitors could use their
guns in a sea- way where a frigate would
fnd i, impossible to use her battery, and
a vessel which attacks a monitor in a sea-
way must approach very close to have any
chance Of hitting such q low hull, and
even then. the monitor is half the time
covered by three or four feet of water,
protecting her and disturbing her oppo-
nent's fire. Hence the monitor style Of
iron-clads is superior to the ~broadside,
not only for fighting purposes, but also
for cruising. The Miantonomah was
much less affected by the sea than the
large vessels that accompanied her, and
steaming six to seven and a half knots an
hour, much less than her maximum speed,
she seemed to be not q whit behind other
sea.faring vessels.

The PACIFIC RAILRoAD.-Apart from
bills Of q purely general character, no
measure of greater Importance has receiv-
ed the sanction of the Thirty-ninth Con-
gress than the bill amending the law regu-
lating the Pacific Railroad. If the meas
ure was an important one, the n Of
its accomplishment was still more ,ignif-
cant. BY the interested parties it was
bitterly contested from first to last. From
the day, last February, when Mr.. Perry
sought to Ale the plat Of survey by the
Smoky Hill river to Denver City, in the
Interior Department, until the act OF Con-
gress authorizing it finally received the
signature OF the President, every inch OF
ground was bitterly contested.
In this struggle the representatives OF
the great central States stood side by side
with the California and Nevada delega-
tons. By the terms of the bill the Cali
fornia company are permitted to come
east until the roads unite, and by remov-
ing the unjust restriction against them the
field is open to enterprise and the
largest pole will knock down the persim-
MONS"
And now, unhampered BY short-sighted
and partizan distractions, the three great
lines start for the race. If this new direct
route is not the best, then the Omaha
branch will prevail. Pioneers are even
now seeking the mountains. Adventur-
GUS bands Of engineers will thread the
valleys and forks Of Colorado, and seek
through its rich mines and long valleys Of
whispering pines" for the route to the
great States of the far West. The spirit
Of American enterprise draws a long
breath. and girds her loins for the strug-
| ple.-Wash. Cor. Sc. Louis Dem.

PAPER Gas AND WATER PIPBs.-For
many purposes paper pipes possess great
advantages over others. They are highly
glazed inside, and thus diminish friction ;
are ~impregnated with bitumen, and there
fore not attacked by insects or acids.
Besides these points Of superiority, they
are sufficiently elastic to permit water to
freeze in them without bursting, and pipes
Of three, four and FIVE inches in diameter
and q half inch in thickness, have stood q
pressure Of 500 pounds to the square inch.
These pipes are made by passing q strip OF
leather through molten bitumen. They
have been used with great success IN Paris,
pipes as large as two feet in diameter hav.
ing been laid in the streets. Both gas ard
water companies have used them.

THR Springfield (Mass.) Republican Of
July 7th, in speaking of the Philadelphia
Convention, says:
In the first place, it will command the
D of all the States lately in rebel
lion. Its platform must necessarily be in
advance of the present Union sentiments
of their defeated politicians ; but as surely
il will be more generous to them than
that Of the Republicans; it will furnish
them their best and only opportunity for
establishment in position and power |;
and they will greedily accept it. Then,
looking at the Presidential vote OF 1864,
we shall see that a change Of $500 votes
from 44,60o in Connecticut, 1000 from
81 ,400 in New Hampshire, $1,000 from
S6S, 1000 in New York, $1,000 from $780,
400 in Pennsylvania, $4,000 from 265,2O0
in Ohio, 1900 from 10000 in Maryland,
90, 500 from $50, 500 in Indiana, and
$1,000 from l8s,6o0 in Illinois, would
reduce the Republican party to a minority
in all these States, and give the suprema.
acy to the reconstructed Democracy and
their allies.
Surely, with the wal ended and slavery
abolished, and a common desire for recon-
Citation the Union over; with Republican
Senators and Cabinet officers, certainly
prominent Republican citizens, in all these
States, leading In the new movement, and
welding the patronage of the national
government through all their precincts, 1t
is not unreasonable for the friends Of the
Philadelphia Convention, in its new as
poets, to hope, or for its wise opponents,
to fear that it will inaugurate an organi-
cation that can stoutly dispute possession
of the next Congress, and lay strong claim
to the succeeding administration. 1t is
idle indeed. to deny this portent and
promise Of the situation. The country
never would have given back the control
of its politics to the old Democratic party,
and its false and traitorous leaders ; but
thus reorganized and led by men who
were conspicuous in the Union ranks. in
field and forum, all during the war, they
will prove no despicable foe to the Repue-
licans.

graph, Of July 9th says:
The surveying party, on the U. P. R.

chief engineer Of this division, Mr.. ].
Pewton Smith ond fifteen assistants form
ing the company. Delightfully."- hot
weather this to start out on q roughing
trip But the "boys" are used to it and
rather enjoy il. Speaking Of
the Dutch Flat Railroad Company, the
Butte Record says: Better let their ricket,y
rams.horn line blow over. and then build
a railroad over the practical Feather river
route, where the greatest altitude to be
attained is less that 1000 feet, and where
Il will meet with no distractions from
snow. Men who would build a railroad
over a route requiring such curyatures
and scaFolding, and running over such
attitudes, ought to be compelled to ride
over their road alta speed Of thirty miles
per hour.
