The "Repealers" of Nova Scotia have passed set of resolutions in the House of Assembly, against the Provincial Union the vote being 36 to 2. These figures car ry a look of decision with them. The whole controversy, in fact, turns upon fig ures, the Repealers showing by arithmetic that the Province loses oyer half million of dollars year by its partnership in tbe grand business of the Domionion; that sum being the excess of the revenue, which the union manages, over the expenses of it's government of Nova Scotia. There is also a stamp act to make the Blue-noses angry; and they are showing plainly enough that they prefer their own "barn" to the great ''house" at Ottawa. They are as active as bees in their "agitation" for repeal; but it is probable the throwing of a little dust among them-say half a million of dollars-would make them as quiet as Virgips pacifed bees in the Georgia.

Gen. steedman has always been regard ed as staunch, unfinching friend of the President, who has generally been suppos- ca anxious to make him Secretary of War. Yet at recent celebration in New Orleans the General. in giving toast "The Pres ident of the United States" took occasion to say, in a Every marked and significant manner, that it was a compliment to the office, and not to the man." And at a sub sequent stage of the proceedings he pro
 rosed 'three cheers for Gen. Grant" The

REVIVAL OF Trade IN THE Souri,
THE GRAIN Trad: OF THE WEST.
One substantial and gratifying eyi-
dence Of the revival Of business in
the South, is the construction of
new and costly steamships to do the
carrying trade between the port of
New York and Southern points.
Another important evidence lies in
the building Of new lines of railroads
and the extension and better equip
ment of the old ones. While these
testimonials Of reviving prosperity
are observed, it is natural that the
commercial men of the different
cities which are likely to be benefit
ted by the return of better times to
to the South should exert themselves
to attract towards their several
centres the profitable results that
Will flow therefrom. This is not
only the fact in regard to the cotton
trade OF the South, but it is likewise
SO with the grain trade of the West,
the competition for the demand of
the latter increasing every year. 1t
may not seem necessary that the
merchants of New York should be
incited to renewed energy and cxcr.
tlon to maintain their accustomed
supremacy over these great elements
Of commercial prosperity, but. with
the notorious efforts of rival cities to
divert from this mart the bulk of the
trades we refer to, it is the part Of
wisdom for our commercial men to
look little ahead, and by early at.
tention to the subject, prevent what
may eventually prove serious injury
to their business. .-Nep Fork Herald

Grants Retreat.

The journey Of Gen. Grant to the
Rocky Mountains is variousIy ycommeuted
on by the Democratic press. The Wash
ingtou correspondent Of the Louisville
Journal thus refers to toe subject: 1t has
even been hinted that his habits" +" had
something to do with the move, and that
it was made in obedience to the orders OF
his medical director. Others consider II
a prudential step to get out Of reach of
speech-making and visitors. Others
again thought it cowardly retreat before
the ;nvective- of Wendell Phillips. IL
turns out, however, that different motive
lay at the bottom Of it. The President
has ordered the Secretary Of War to refer
the Georgia military arrests to Grant for
adjudication, in accordance with the laws
of Congress. In doing this Mr.. johnson
reserved to himself the right to set aside
Grants ruling, IL it should be unjust.
Grant has therefore got ont Of the way to
shirk the responsibility. .-Paducah Ken.
