THE LARGEST CiTY IN THE WoRLD.-- A very erroneous idea is indulged in by many people in relation to the largest city in the world; many confidently asserting that London, or as it is frequently termed the Great Metropolis, is far superior both in size and the number of it's inhabitants But such is not increase Jeddo, the cap itol of Japan, is, without exception, the largest and most populous city in the world. It contains the vast number of l ,500, GOO dwellings, and 5,000,00o of human souls Many of the streets are twenty two English miles in length The commerce of Jeddo far exceeds that of any other city in the world, aud tle sea along the coast is con- tinualy white with the sails of ships Their vessls sail to the southern portions of the Empire, where they are loaded with rice, tea, sea.ehal, tobacco, silk, cotton and tropical fruits, all of which can iud ready market in the north, and then return freighted with corn, salt, isinglass. and va rious other productions of the North, which have a market in the South.

The recent elections in the North and the defeat of the Radical party seems to give the Republican press tho blues most awfully. Their wisdom is wonderful while their wailing is pitiful' Thurlow Weed, says:
 Blind and deluded almost beyond paral- Tel are those who fail to discover a strong reactionary sentiment Those who have sown the storm must praparc to reap the whirlwind.
