SUMMARY PUNIsHMENT.-A story
savoring of the romantics told of
an enterprising Englishman who took
up his residence in the Pellew Islands,
years ago, for the purpose of trading
between that group and China. He
amaS5ed a competence and was about
to retire, when he suddenly incurred
the displeasure of the king, who said
the Englishman had sold arms to a
nation at war with him, and he was
put to death. To avenge this deed,
Capt. Stevens. commanding the Brit
ish steamer Perseus, at once repaired
to the islands. King Aba-Thule was
among the first to come oa board
After the object of the visit had been
explained to his majesty, the latter re-
turned to the shore to consult, and in
short time the prime minister per.
sonally gave assurance that one of
the principals in the alleged murder
should be given up. 1t appeared that
the king had given the order for ex
ecution, and he was given up-tht
minister requesting that he should bt
executed by the crew of the Perseus
but Captain Stevens refused tt
accede to this proposition, and insis
ed that justice should be administer
ed by The people themselves. Thu
first lieutenant Of the Perseus landed
with party of marines to see tn,
sentences carried into effect. On be
ing told to prepare for death, tn
king appeared perfectly Indifferent tt
his fate, and boldly took his place a
the spot appointed for his execution
A marine was stationed on each sid
of him, and the prime minister wa
the person appointed by his colleague
to take the part of executioner. Thi
official, apparently nothing loath t.
fulfill the duties imposed upon hin
took up rife, and aiming at his so,
} ereign, shot him dead, the ball pass
ing through his heart.

QUACKENBOS's ARITHMETIC S.-
Quackenbos's new Arithmetics claim
to be the best in the field, and we
think not without reason. Why ?
Because their rules and analyses are
admirably condensed. Because in
number and variety Of examples they
are unequalled. Because in Interest
and all other business operations ION
which they are particularly full) they
teach the methods actually used 10y
business men. Because being written

that there is a difference between

the comparative results Of investments

UNIoNIsM AND UNION MEN IN KEN
TUCKY. - A Lexington, KY, CORE
spondent of one Of the Cincinnati
papers writes thus despairingly of
the prospect for Unionists in that
State, now that Helm and his rebel
associates have been elected to adj
minister the State Government:
No number of troops or the Wig
lance of commander, however great,
can save the spotted Union men,
unless the Judges who mock Justice,
and the civil officers of all grades
who believe it no crime to kill a
Union man, be removed from power,
and the offices of the State put into
the hands Of just and loyal men,
The only question that now remains
to be settled is whether State lines
can make any difference in the crime
OF treason /? Whether the people of
Kentucky can be absolutely disloyal
to a government that requires the
people of all its other States to be
loyal? The first intimation of how
the all-important question will be de-
cided has already been received in
the rejection of the rebel Congress
men from National halls, and the
rebels now themselves, at heart, be-
lieve that the whole matter will ul
timately be decided in favor of the
loyal men. They see in the Unionists
their future masters, and hence they
hate them with hatred that knows
no limit. Poor old distressed Ken
lucky! We wish bloodshed would
cease in her borders, and peace anc
good order return to the most beau
tliul and fertile State in the Union
But she can never have order o.
peace while rebels rule, and tn.
shortest way is the best way to enc
that rule, and with it the dissension,
and disorders that now distress us
I'LL our homes with mourning, and re
tard the prosperity of our great ant
glorious Commonwealth.

THE UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD OPEN
425 MILES.-A few weeks since we
noticed the opening of the Union Pa
cifc Railroad to Julesburg. 81 miles
west of Omaha, and we now have to
report its completion to Grow Greek,
a point 48 miles further west, making
a total of 425 miles. Fifty miles of
track in addition are graded ready
for the iron, and there is no doubt Of
the completion of the road to the base
Of the Rocky Mountains early in the
fall. The company are confident that
the whole line to the Pacific will be
open for business in 1870. The In
dams have annoyed the surveying
parties and tie-cutters, who are many
hundred miles in advance Of the work
but they have a wholesome fear of the
population that a railroad carries
with it, and all trains run without in
terruption.
The business of the Company has
been most dattering. The earning.
for the quarter ending August LIST
were about 100000; but as the re
port for the last week in July has no
been received, the exact fraction can
not be given. These earnings accru
ed from operating an average Of no
more than $50 miles of road, and a.
ter deducting operating expenses, tn
balance is far in excess of the interes
obligations of the Company on th
amount of bonds they can issue O
that distance. 1t should be remcn
bered that this result is from a wa
business alone, through new countr,
and is not to be compared with til
vast through business that must folio
: the opening of the whole line to th
Pacific. The success Of the onterpris
seems to be thoroughly assured, an
, we can see no reason why the frs
, Mortgage bonds, are not entitled
, rank among the best securities. Th
) daily sales are now so large, that tt
5 company already entertain the ide
of advancing the price.

AMBITIoUs.-The summer season is
the most trying season for all organi-
cations. People make the warm
weather and short evenings an excuse
for staying away from all kinds of
meetings. But it is time that shows
who are the true and Jealous, and
faithful men and women. These are
always in attendance in all sorts of
weather. The stay,at-hOmes are the
weak-faithed, the lukewarm, the care.
less and Indifferent. A man whose
heart is in any cause, will not be
frightened if the thermometer doesn't
range exactly to suit him. The work
ers are found in the prayer meetings
of the church, and in the lodge room
even though it requires some effor
and little sacrifice to go there.
