existence all other means of communication
with Eastern Asia for the tea, the silk, and
other products brought by this rapid and
constant transit will undersell in the markets
of the world those brought by all other routes.
Cargoes carried around the Cape of Good
Hope in slow British sailers, doubling the
price in interest and insurance, cannot COM
pete, and to steam communication by that
direction there is a practical difficulty of which
the Great Eastern is an abortive monu-
ment. Ordinary steamers are only large
enough to carry the coal necessary to steam
the voyage from England, aud thus have no
room left for cargo; but if ships are made
large enough to carry the necessary coal and
a cargo too, they are so large as to be nautical
elephants ON the hands Of their owners. Bat
our American line with its swift run to and
fro between Hong Kong and San Francisco,
touching at the Sandwich Islands, has solved
the problem of steam communication with
China, and places the products OF that empire
within easy reach of the Western World at
San Francisco. 1t only remains for the
Pacific Railroad to put them in this city for us
to have accomplished the greatest revolution
in commercial history-a revolution which
will pass through our hands all the commo-
dities with which Asia supplies Europe, and
all the manufactures with which Europe sup
plies Asia, and to supply our own wants by
collecting a toll on the wants of others.
For ages all the Western nations have
sought the trade of the East and the way to
the East, and we have found the one and
thereby secured the other. Columbus, feel
ing for the East in the early gloom, stumbled
on this continent. Hudson was but one of the
many Davigators who in exploring our coast
sought for northwest passage by which Eu-
ropean commerce could have more feasible
route to the East than round the Cape; that
was his errand when he came into the broad
river that now bears his name, and it seems a
strange, prophetic vagary of the winds that
they should have borne him SO accurately to
the eastern terminus of that shorter route to
the Indies that all men sought. Columbus
therefore did not fail i'll any sense. He did not
even blunder in his search; neither did Hud-
son nor the others. They came by correct
lines, and in discovering America made posi-
BILE all the rest, and our railroads to San Fran
cisco and steamers thence to Asia constitute
| the practical form of their northwest passage.

Have We Conquered Peace !-ShaIl We
Have Peace!

nave I6dCt.
From The ". y. Times.
General Grant in closing his letter of accept
ance, with the words, "let us have peace, 1"
incisively hit the very heart of the party con-
troversies. The great essential controlling
issue in this Presidential canvass is nothing
else than the choice between continued Sec
tiOnal strife and a permanent reconciliation,
That issue is so plain that our opponents
themselves do not try to hide it. All their
dealing with it, thus far, from the beginning,
has only been to make it the more conspicuous.
With a fatal facility they are drawn to it in
spite of themselves. They made haste to
put it in the boldest relief in their platform,
by that resolution which declared void, and of
no effect, all that has been hitherto done for
reconstruction, thus remitting everything to
the civil chaos in which the war left us. They
returned to it in the nomination of General
Blair to the second place on their ticket imme-
diately after his issue Of the most incendiary
and revolutionary letter ever seen in
this land-a letter every syllable OF which
is an invocation of the old Rebel spirit, and
an instigatiOn to renewed violence. The
Rebel allies of the party in the South have
been equally quick to recognize the actual
alternative. Wade Hampton, still hot from
the atmosphere of the Convention, assured
the people of Charleston in public speech
that the Southern vote must be cast without
IegdIu 10 the hecOnSJrucLlOn laws anu tudI IL
that vote shall elect the Democratic candidates
they 'shall be installed in power in spite of
all the bayonets that shall be brought against
them" and he proolaims his own readiness to
enter the fight again, in these words, "ShOuld
South Carolina call her sons together to defend
her affairs, If life and VOlition are left to me,
none will respond more cheerful!y and
promptly than myself" And in like spirit
Howell Cobb, at the Democratic ratification
meeting in Atlanta, challenges combat"
'Enemies they were in war, enemies they con-
! tipue to be in peace. In war we drew the sword
and bade them defiance. In peace we gather
up the manhood OF the South, and raising the
banner of constitutional equality, and
| gathering around it the good men OF the North
as we'll as the South, we hurl into their teeth
to-day the same defiance, and bid them come
on to the struggle. We are ready for it if you
are. Young men, in whose veins the red
blood of youth runs so quickly, come Come
one and all, and let us snatch the old banner
from the dust and give it again to the breeze,
and, if need be, to the god of battles, and
strike one more honest blow for constitutional
| liberty" This is just the revolutionary
rhetoric that has been employed everywhere
throughout the South by editors and by
stump speakers, in hailing and helping for
ward the Democratic nominations. The same

The Trade with China - The Northwest
Passage.

AuoSilSCs
From The ". y. Herald.
Our commercial relations with China are
already of great Importance. Engaged in the
domestic trade OF that country, plying between
its queer ports up and down its strange rivers
and through the fairy land of hooks on the
coast there are now at least hundred foreign
steamers, and two thirds of these are from the
United States. This is an indication of the
enterprise and intelligence with which our
cOuntrymen have pressed forward in the
struggle for supremacy in all the channels of
Chinese trade. From this spirit the recently
made treaty grew, and by that treaty, drawn
in honorable equality on both sides, We enter
into quasi commercial alliance that will give
us the start of the world in trading on the
wealth of the East. In the days when the cir
cumnavigation of continents was necessary in
order to reach Oriental countries by the sea
some other nations had peculiar advantages
over us in the prosecution OF this trade. Hol-
land and Portugal, by their colonial system,
had the monopoly in one age, and England,
by her position and maritime power, distanced
all competitors in another. But we have
changed all that. Our expansion, our great
political and commercial development, the
aouteness, the thrift, energy, courage, and
broad capacity of our people, have together
nullifed all odds against us, placed us before
all others in the list, and promise to estab-
lish our trade there on better basis than was
found in either Dutch colonies or British
bottoms, and through that establishment to
change the direction of the great lines of trade
that are drawn around our maps of the world.
San Francisco, our commercial capital on
the Pacific, conducts our maritime Asiatic re-
lations with enterprising spirit but when the
Pacific Railroad is finished, and San Francisco
has direct railroad connection with this city
with the whole cOuntry-the Oriental trade
will receive through this association vastly
increased impulse. Then the railroad across
the continent, and the line of magnificent
steamers across the Pacific will drive from

How to Tell a Farmer.

In drifting here or there, any.
whore you, will, through and across
the country, one keeping san eye to
windward,p as sailors say, can al.
ways tell a farmer without seeing
him, just by driving moderately past
bis premises. Take, for instance, a
raw, cold, clustering day, aud look
out, and in too, as far as you can,
and you'll find out who lives there,
without stopping TO inquire. If you
hnd the fences all up and in order,
gates in repair, and shat; see the
barns, stables, sheds, and all out
houses newly battsned, all tidy and
snug about the yard, house banked
up With tan bark, aud cellar wind
ows barricaded against frost, not a
sythe, rake or hoe hanging out on
apple-tree limbs, not a wagon, cart
plow, or implement Of any sort, un.
housed; the young choice fruit trees
jacketed with straw oyercoats, sheds
Uttered with clean straw and sleek
cattle underneath, comfortably shell.

Stabhng Stock.

Many Of our farmers do not fully
recognize the Importance Of COM
fortably sheltering their stock, ,--cs-
pecially Cattle,-from the inclem-
encies Of tho weather. II is not
only cruel to subject brutes to tho
cold and peltings Of tho winters
storm, but il is improbable. A
milk COW that does not receive pro-
per sheltering, will not only be re-
duced in flesh, but will fail to give
a proportionate amount Of milk for
the food consumed; besides far more
nourishment is required to SUBJ
sist them, than when warmly stabl-
ed and comfortably bedded. The
latter may be said of all kinds of
stock, and tho amount Of feed saved
in two or three seasons thereby,
would build snug stable for a
goodly quantity Of stock. If you
are unable at first TO erect substan-
tial buildings, build up a pen Of
rails six or eight feet high, and draw
long poles from the woods and COW
or over the top at a distance Of one
or two feet apart. Over this stack
your straw in the fall, leaving an
opening on the south side for a pass
age way. See that the sides of the
pen are we'll protected with plenty
Of straw and that the roof has
steep pitch, and our word for it, it
will we'll repay you the trouble, UNI
I'll you can afford to erect something
m,re substantial. No farmer ought
90 rost contonted until he has made
his stock comfortable, if he has the
wherewith to do it. Brutes have
feelings as we'll as humans, and the
man who ocarelessly neglects to pro-
vide for the "beasts Of the field"
which no has gathered around him
for his profit aud pleasure, deserves
no gains,-no happiness, but rath-
or the contempt Of his neighbors
and the ill-fortunes of the world

Ohio Wool qrorsr,s Convention.


COLUMBUS, Jan. q.
The Ohio Wool Growers Associ-
alton met in annual convention In
,he Senate Chamber to-day. Hon.
N. 8. Townsend was called to the
Chair. The proposed national ex-
position Of wool and wooden goods
was taken up. A motion declaring
the Association in favor Of such ex-
position, to be held In Chicago or
some place else In the West, was a.
dopted, aud then the question being
raised as to ~ prOpriety Of going
TO Chicago, the motion was recon
sidered. The fact that Chicago had
agreed to furnish place to hold
the exhibition and contribute 50 900
for premiums, were overbalanccd by
State pride, and on the argument
that Chicago was too far West; was
not wool growing region Of the
fner grades, and Eastern men would
not take their stock so far, Chicago
was stricken out and Columbus or
Cleveland inserted.
The subjects Of long and short

Of gentlemen, also the treatment Of

"Outside the Constitution

Some reverend defender Of Thad. Ste
vens having denied that he ever asserted
that the Republican party was proceeding
outside of the Constitution, q correspon-
dent asks rs to assist him in supplying the
proof. Mr.. Stevens has again and again
made this statement in one form or an
other but we suppose one clear instance
to be as conclusive as half a score. We
refer our correspondent to letter written
by Stevens, to Colonel Samuel Shock, da-
ted August 20, 1857, published in the
Lancaster Examiner and Herald of Au-
gust '67, and re-published. From that let.
ter we transcribe the following decisive
passage:
Some of the members of the Senate
seemed to doubt their power under the
Constitution aChich they had just repudid-
ted, and mhOliy outside of schich we wiH d.
gree we are acting else our achoLe acork Of
reconstruction ocaS usurpation.
Mr. Stevens differs from his brother
Radicals in having boldness, or If you will,
the impudence, to confess what they make
shufHing, awkward attempts to conceal.

"Throw Conscience to the Devil"

In the House of Representatives, Wash
ington, on the 18th, in discussing impeach-
ment matters
Mr. Ross-I ask the gentlemen from
Pennsylvania whether, in his opinion, Sen
ators would be justified in peJuriug them
selves for ihe purpose of procuring a con-
viction of the President?
Mr.. Stevens-Well, sir, do not think
it would huit them.
Perjury will not hurt man in Thad.
Stevens estimation. The early political
history of Stevens is associated with "throw-
ing conscience to the devil, and jumping
out of the back window at the Capital of
Pennsylvania, in the buck shol war. His
decline into Abrana's bosom, is marked by
his'reckless contempt of an oath taken up
on the Bible, and the encouragement of
others, to commit perjury. And yet,
preachers and professors tell US he is a
good man!

THE REGISTRY Law.

We published in our issue of April 29tb,
a copy Of the Registry Law, passed at the
late session of the Legislature. This
Know-Nothing gag should be thoroughly
studied by every Democrat, so that he and
bis friends may not suffer disfranchise-
ment under it. File it away for reference.
We ask the people to note
/. That under this law odious dis
elimination is made against foreign born
citizens. Germans, Englisnmen, Irishmen,
Scotchmen, who have hitherto voted the
Republican " ticket, behold how your
party strikes at your citizenship Is such
party favorable to equal rigAtss
2. That it puts every citizen who
would exercise the right of suffrage to
much trouble and vcxation, in attendance
upon the meeting of the board of registra-
ton, making proof of his right to vote, etc.
3. That it changes the hour of closing
the polls from sevsn to sir o'clock; thus
aiming to disfranchise the laboring classes.
4. That it entails an additional ex-
pense Of thousand of dollars upon the tax
payers, for extra services on the part OF
assessors and election officers.
5. That it is in direct conflict with the
Constitution of Pennsylvania, which de-
fines the qualification of voter as follows
"In elections by the citizens, every
white person of the age of twenty one
years, having resided in the State one year,
and in the election district where he offers
to vote ten days Immediately preceding
such election, and within two years paid a
State or county tax, who shall have been
assessed at least ten days before the cleo
ton, shall enjoy the right of an elector. y
