what this Generation Has
AeRn.

Tho New York Evening Post
calls attention TO these interesting
facts:
Tho present Century has seen
four great events.
/. Morse's invention Of the tel.
egraph.
2. The laying of the Atlantic
Cable.
3. The death Of slavery in the
United States.
4. The completion Of the Pacil-
ic Railway.
In twenty-five years the Conti-
hent has been spaanei by tho
wires Of the telegraph. Ten years
ago the lightning began to ran be-
meath the sea. Five years ago tho
war for FREEDOM ended, and Slavery
died. Yesterday tho iron track
was made complete from Portland
to San Fran cisco. The young men
of today, who has seen all of these
things accomplished, will havo
tales 10 tell TO his grand children
such as no grand sire OF our day
can summon from the stores of his
memory.

A RETURN MATCH FOR HARVARD.
Cant 9 l

MATCH FOX HARVARD
LONDON, Wednesday, Sept. g. 1869.
The Morning telegraph has an editorial to-day on
the result of the recent international rowing match
between the Oxford and Harvard crews. The writer
says the merits of the two systems will be undecided
until Oxford crosses the Atlantic and meets the
American crew in American waters. II Oxford is
beaten under such circumstances, it will show, how
ever close the match may be- the best American and
English styles of rowing. If Oxford is victorious, it
will show that the Harvards have something to
unlearn. We see no cause to doubt that the scheme
will be practicable. 1t will afford fair and reason
able chance for the Harvards to the triumph
The fame of the Oxfords and their love of fair play
it is natural to suppose will prompt ready compii-
ance with the just expectation of America.
THE LATE OUTRAGEs IN CHINA.
The Times, to-day, is indignant over the late out
RACES IN China. 1t says: Whether China under
stands that it is for its advantage to be free to
keep order in its own dOmnOns or not, England is
resolved to insist that it must keep the Mandarins
under proper control. We shall refuse the RESPONSE
bty of maintaining peace in China, if there is any
foundation for the suggestion that it is trying to de-
ceive the Western Powers by pretended desire to
establish more direct relations 1t is hard to under
stand how we should enter into under less
favorable conditions, because we abdicated the
unpopular office of chastsng the provincials for out
RACES really the acts Of Mandarns delegated from
Pekin. Should war arise, it would DO unquestiona-
bly, our interest to stipulate that fulfllment
of the terms Of the treaty be assumed solely
by the Chinese. Our Government, in giving
chance of success to the Burlingame mission, may be
accomplishing peaceably what it might be compelled
to effect by force. The recent alarms give no cause
to dsrust the recently recognized doctrine that 1t is
better for foreigners trading with China to make 1t
the business of the Central Government to keep to
the treaties and obhge its subjects to do so.
