WILLIAM SANDERS, esq, OF the agricultural
department, has been commissioned to make o
visit to the West by the Hon. J. W. STONES
acting commissioner to examine into the pecu
liarities of the climate, soil, and modes Of cul.
ture as adapted to the better care and growth Of
the grape, and more particularly to ascertain the
causes and cure of those diseases, such as rot,
miIdew, and the havoc made upon this fruit by
insects.
Mr.. SAUNDERS knowledge of the science
Of horticulture, coupled with his intelligence and
an earnest desire to improve the culture of this
favorite fguit cannot fail to have sRlutary effect
upon the care and cultivation Of the grape In the
Atlantic and Middle States.
Mr.. SAUNDERS Is at present among the vino.
clad hills Of Ohio, and has had extended to him
the right hand of good fellowship by the yeo-
manry Of that prolific State
Mr.. SAUNDERS writes glovingly of the pros

interest taken in the cultivation thereof. lie
hopes the day is not far distant when every sun,
clad hill under the genial rays of an Indian SUN
mer will fairly glisten with the ripening Of lh
luscious fruit
He says the interest taken in the grape cul
turs is surprising, and the amount of money in
vested Is enormous.
Mr.. SAUNDERS speaks Of the great damage
done the crops by an insect known as the
"thrip," and mentions that on Catawba Island
alone the damage done will amount to the round
sum Of $4,000. In speaking Of the island Mr..
SAUNDERS remarks that within tho past four
years some four hundred acrei Of vines have been
planted. Mr. SAUNDERS has placed his face
westward. and interesting facts will be garnored
by him that cannot fail to be Of service to al
those who are interested in the cultivation oi

Obituary.

Hog. JAMES A. MoDouoALL, formerly U.
S. Senator from California, is no more.
He died in Albany, New York, on Tues
day last, in the 5Oth year of his age. The
New York Tribune says of him:
Mr.. McDougall was native of this
State. He was born in Bethlehem, Albany
county, Nov. 10, 1917; was educated at
the-Albany Grammar School; studied law,
and commenced the practice Of his profess
sion in Pike county, Illinois, to which
place he removed in 1887. He was elect
ed Attorney General Of that State in 1912,
and was reelected in 1874. He had some
skill as q civil engineer, and assisted in the
survey of the first railroad built in this
country, the Albany and Schenectady
road, while he was still very young.
In pursuance of these tastes, he origi-
mated, in ls40, an exploring expedition TO
the Rio del Norte, the Gla, and the Colo
RADIO, which he accompanied, and, as the
gold fields Of California had just been dis
covered, and emigration was tending that
way, he was induced to make San Fran
cisco his home, where be resumed the
practice Of his profession. The only Office
he held in California, beside United States
Senator, was the same he had filed in
illinois, Attorney General-to which posi-
tion he was elected in 1853, declining a
denomination in 1855. In 1861 he was
elected to the United States Senate. His
term expired on the 4th Of March. and he
was succeeded by Cornelius Cole.
In the Senate he served on the Com.
mittee on Finance and Naval Affairs, and
was chairman of the Committee on the
Pacific Railroad In the early part Of the
rebellion he took strong grounds in favor
of vigorous prosecution Of the war, and
was for time identified with the War
Democrats, of whom the late Senator
Douglas was the chief but he never sew,
cred his connection with the Democratic
party, and was delegate to the Chicago
Convention which nominated General Nc,
Clellan for President in 1864 supporting
that hero along with his colleagues from
California.
Mr.. MCDoUGALL was well known in this
city, and was, as man, highly esteemed
by numerous circle of friends. He was
his own greatest enemy, being slave to
an appetite which has ruined thousands
of the highest intellects in the land Mr.
McDoUGALL was ripe scholar, Learned
lawyer, and an eloquent orator.

PEACE THROUGHOUT THE
WORLD.

In our yesterdays issue we shew what
the Emperor NAPOLEON was doing, impelled
by the force OF circumstance, or to speak
more correctly, governed and directed by
Divine Providence, who elevates one ruler
and debases another, exalts kings and de-
thrones them, at his will, to promote peace.
He may be influenced by selfish or even
wicked influences, to do as he does. 1t is
not material to the issue we are now con-
sidering to determine as TO the precise mo-
tives which govern LOUIS NAPOLEON, in
the mastery diplomacy he now exhibits in
controlling current events in European
politics, and in shaping the destiny of EN-.
pires, making oil subservient to his one
great purpose, the aggrandizcmcnt anil
glory Of France. This may be his work,
but "thc Divinity that shapes our ends
will use him as it always used either intel
ligent or unintelligent agencies to accom-
plisb its designs.
The Emperor NAPOLEON is not the eX.
elusive agent, conscious or unconscious,
that is working in this country and in Eu.
rope to bring about that grand peaceful
era when swords shall be beaten into
plow-shares and spears into pruning. g.hooks,
and the nations shall learn war no more. u
Turning our attention TO France, we find
they have three organizations in that coun'
try whose object is TO promote peace.
These organizations arc each at work, in
its own way and governed by one great
central idea-the securing of universal
peace in Christendom.
The International Congress of Peace
will hold its FIRST session in Geneva mex
Monday, the 9th instant, and all the friend
of peace and democracy are invited to b,
present, and to take part in its proceed
ings. Among the distinguished individual
whose great influence is pledged in behal
Of this cause we may name MICHEL CHE
WALLER, Baron LIEBIG, JOSEPH GARNER
GARIBALDT, LOUIS BLANC, NICToR HrGo
JULES FAvRE, PELLETAY, JouS STuAR'
Mill, Sir DAVID BREWSTER, JONI BRIGHT
CHARLES SUMNER, and others.
This is an array ofnames known Throughout
the world in the domain Of letters, politics
literature, science, craftsmanship, and re
ligion; and they are all men whose infu
ence in the cause Of progress and reform i
potential. Thus we may consider this grea
reform fairly commenced, and it strikes u
that kings, princes, and rulers must wei
come the movement, and give to it theil
aid; and that all great men must bid il
God-speed, and help to bring about the
happy time, when all international ditiicul
ties shall be adjusted in a high court of ma
tions established to this end. This beinI
done, we can see the coming of that da,
propbesied of by that poet whose verse W
quoted at the head Of our article yester
day:
Down the dark future, through long gsnerr
tions,
The echOing sounds of war grow fainter, and the
ceasei
And, like q bell Of solemn sweet vibrations,
hear the voice Of Christ say Peace.
Peace and from out those brazen portals,
No more shall wars great organ shake th
skies
But beautiful as songs of the immortals
Tho holy melodies Of love arise"
