The compromising Chain.

Having, through their circulars
and mauals, searched the instrument
makers shops, and also the Patent
Office through Messrs. Alexander &
Masons, of Washington, take this
occasion to say that Wapello county
has produced the only chain that
will measure all ground the same as
IT 1t We're Il perfect level. It is used
either as a common or as q Compen-
sating chain. When used as a Com.
pensating Chain it measures the chord
OF an arc equal to the straight Chain.
1t vas the approval OF all engineers
and men OF education who have seen
1t and all others, with no dissent. It
carries conviction with it and needs
but to be seen. 1t consumes no more
time in surveying than the ordinary
Chain.
have also q spirit plumb or staff
to accompany the Chain. The Staff
is constructed SO as to plumb the ends
OF the Chain, carry and count the
pms, count and keep the outs. level
tho Chain or take its angle when not
level, measure links, and tenths. and
feet, and inches. Indicates the exact
level measure or length of the Chain
when on an angle and also indicates
the thermal variation of the Chain
as well as OF the compass, and is o
backsight staff to prove the line.
The chain indicates it's own level
independent of the staff, and will al
SO take its own angle with exactness
and is adjustable to the atmospheric.
or thermal changes (Which vary the
length ola chain about three. fourtbs
ofan inch.)
Yours Respectfully,
JOHN GRANT,
County Surveyor.

A New PRoposITIoN.-The tax and
anti-tax clements had o meeting for
consultation, yesterday evening, at
which it was determined TO with.
draw the present proposition and
submit new one for vote of one
per cent to aid the st. L.. & G. r. R
1t is understood that the latter
proposition meets the views Of the
opposition pretty generally, and that
it wilkcarry nearly unanimously.
The taxable property in this pre-.
cinct being over two million of dol
lars, the vote will give the Company
say twenty thousand dollars which
will doubtless, by close collections on
the voluntary stock, secure us the
road by January lst.. next, at the
farthest.

e iil France.

Private letters from Paris, added to the concur
rent observations of intelligent observers IN that
city, seem to establish the fact that the condition
of French society is nearly analogous to that
which heretofore has always preceded a revolution.
The people are represented as becoming equally
Disguised with the home and foreign policy of
the Emperor. They feel that the second Empire
has not fulfilled its promise. 1t promised peace,
remission of taxation, and security. But these
pledges are far from having been realized. In
place of peace, there have been the Italian and
Crimean wars, disgracefhl Roman and Mexican
expeditions, and an enormously Increased stand
ing army and conscription law that render peace
scarcely less burdensome than war. For the
promised reductions of taxation, an increase has
been levied upon every article of production and
consumption that is capable of yielding a revenue;
while the national debt has been more than
doubled and treblcd. As for security there is an
army of police spies and all-pervading centraliza-
ton that permits no person To escape its Jealous
scrutiny. But there is a prejudice of classes that
threatens the most serious consequences. At no
period since the first Revolution have the lines of
demarcation between rich and poor, the privileged
few and the unpriyileged many, been more clearly
drawn. There Is no liberty of speech OF thought
allowed to the most nimblc witted and intellectual
people in the world. No Frenchman is allowed
the privilege of being anything but n passive sub
Jet of the Emperor. Even universal suffrage is
dwarled down to the questionable boon of voting,
between priests and gendarmes, for the candidates
nominated by the Imperial protects.
1t is no wonder that the French people, who
have made so many noble sacrifices for freedom,
should chafc and fret under the restrictions to
which they are subjected. If they have borne
~overmuch, it should be remembered that the
difficulties of redress are enormous. The army,
by a series of cunningly devised expedients, has
been detached from all sympathy with the people,
and converted into a machinery for oppression.
Then, too, the jealous supervision of the press has
prevented the dissemination of news OF the actual
condition of affairs at home and abroad. But the
CONSUMPTION law by its infamous requisition of
the bread winners of every family, is gradually
awaking the people to the knowledge of Napoleo-
ME failures. 80
How long it may be before the storm bursts it
is impossible to predict. But that the volcanic
elements are seething and working, there can be
no doubt. When the end comes it will be sudden
and terrible. The Empire will topple over like a
child's card house. Probably there may be no,
catastrophe during the life time of the present
Emperor, whose chief mission upon earth appears
to be to utterly eradicate from the French breasts
every lingering sentiment of respect for monarch
les, and TO destroy the last relics of hero worship.

ENTER DIsRAELI AS PREMIER.

Mr.. Disracli has made himself Prime Minister
of England. We could not keep our countcnance
and repeat the hypocritical cant we hear on every
side about the Tories having acted wisely and
magnanimously in giving him the lead. If it
he prudent or generous in men to make up their
minds to admit what they cannot deny, and to fol-
low n particular course where no alternative is
open, the conservatives have shown sense and
spirit in acknowledging Mr.. Disraeli's incontesta-
BILE right, and in submitting peaccably To his ac-
cession. But as to their giving or granting him
such a distinction, men cannot be said to give or
grant what is not in their power to withhold. In
PARTY services and political attainments he stood
without n rival. When Toryism lay PROSTATE
and feeble, MANNED and shattered by suicide
wounds. he took it up washed its face and clothed
it anew, and set it on his own steed and brought
it to an inn. There, through all its many stages of
relapse and incoherency, he watched and tended
it, telling it all day amusing tales of its past histo-
~ which sounded rs good as new. and singing to 1t
all night sweet songs of n good time coming, when
WORKOUT Whiggery should be discarded, and pro-
gressive conservatism should be the faith of the
nation. BY degrees he unwrapPed the bandages OF
bigotry from its limbs, and taught Its timid feet
To walk without the crutches.
EXIT DERBY.
There il an end to old Toryism. Warwick was
the last of the barons who governed England
sword in hand STAFFORD was the last of the cour-
tiers who ruled in the name of Royal Prerogativc :;
Derby is the last of the high born and affiucnt no
bles who; for two centuries, have borne sway over
Crown and people by dint of traditionary make
believe. 1t is no disparagement to the talents of
the late Premier 10 say that. but for his ancestry
and his fortune. he would never have had n chance
Of being an Under Secretary at twenty-seven, a
Cabinet Minister at thirty-three the head of a
great party in the State for twenty years, and
three times the head of the Executive Government.
No praise of facility as a v~ersifier, no fiattery of
his volubility in evasion or i%nveetive, can dupe the
most grateful of the many followers whom he po-
litically led into believing that their patron was a
statesman or n man of genius. Nature gave him
in a ~rre-emincnt degree n supplcness of purpose
and adroitness of tongue. With all his ostcnta-
tion of inficxibility and uneoncealed enjoyment of

hauteur, there never was a man who compensated
himself more largely for whatever sacrifices he may
have made TO consistency, at the cost of other
mems feelings and opinions. Two, or three un-
tamable prejudiees he always kept, indeed, like
wolf-dogs about the house, less for mischief than
for show for the fourteenth Earl of Derby vac ex-
ceedingly fond of all that kept in remembrance
the dignity and pretensions of his rank.
