Finished.

The sth of May, 1869, ought here
after to be observed as one of our ma
tional holidays. Today the Occidcnt
greets the Orient. Today, ina rude
village grown up in night, like 10
nah's gourd, in the far off territory
of Wyoming, midway between the
Pacific Ocean and the Missouri river,
a golden spike is to be driven into an
elegantly silver mounted laurel tie,
which is to complete the three thou
sand miles of iron which indissolu-
bly, cements together in the bands of
commerce and fraternity, mighty
and homogeneous continent of peo-
pie.
If the Republican party had ac-
complishcd its mission, filled the
measure of its glory, and was now
passing in its checks, it has accom-
plishcd enough to make il immortal,
for the coming Gibbon who may
write its rise, decline and fall, will, in
simple justice he compelled to credit
it with having accomplished the three
mighticst accomplishments in the
history Of the Great Republic, to-
wit: the crushing to atoms Of Il gi-
gantic democratic rebellion against
the nations life; the cxtirpation of
ovory vestige of human chattlchood,
and the completion of the Pacific
Railroad.
At the first Republican National
Convention, held 1T Philadelphia, in
1886, we pronounced in favor of the
carly completion of the Pacific Rail-
road as q necessity in war and COM
merce, and from that day to this have
inexorably pressed the measure, until
we now witness its final completion.
Its consequences in developing our
vast resources, bringing the com
merce of the East to our doors, and
adding to our wealth and population
are too vast to comprehend. Who
says that the glorious Republican
party, which has mainly accomplish
ed these wonderful results, ought to
die?

The Recruiting Business.

A great amount of virtuous protcs-
tionfo for economy was made during
the last session of congress, especial
ly in the matter of reducing the az
my, which finally resulted in consol-
idating the regiments to about one
half of their original number, caus-
ing tho mustor.out of the service OF
such onelegged heroes as Siclles and
Robinson, each commanding Invalid
regiments, and hundreds of others
equally rs badly manned and as mcr-
itorious subalterns, even if not as ia
nous. Congress had, however,
scarcely adjourned until an order is
issued to renew recruiting on an ex-
tensivo scale, and we now have q
batch of officers quartered in the
principal cities, with all their costly
combinations andperquisites, attend
ing the red tape recruiting business,
to fill up the army again to tho max
imum allowed by law.
We imagine that the public will
not be able to see the necessity of
this procedure.
If this is done on account Of the
little speck OF war, about as big as u
mans hand, that now appears in the
eastern horizon, and anon shows it.
self in the Cuban sky, then it may
be regarded as about the weakest
and most impotent preparation that
can be made.
In case hostilities occur growing
out of our complications with Great
Britain, or Cuba, OF which there is
scarcely reasonable probability,
then the country in the future as in
tho past will lean trustingly upon the
Drawn, brain, and patriotism of the
sturdy citizen soldiery for defense
and vlndlcatlon, and not upon the
regular army recruited from the riff
raft and debris of our foreign popula-
tion, which enters mainly into the
composition Of the material of the
regular army.
Looking at tho question from any
stand point, it seems to us like incur
ring a totally unnecessary expense to
reopen tho recruiting machinery
and ono which congress would doubt.

A SQUARE MEAL IN NEVADA,
traveller TO the White Pine river in
Noy ada, thus portrays ones eXpe-
ricncc:
"At one station tho party halted
for square meal. There was 81
tent, and in it a huge kettle of coffee,
and 4 camp oven. After waiting u
fow minutes, the landlord came to
the door and snapped out, ''room for
four" Our informant went in with
three other men, aud they knelt
around fiat box, which the hotel
keeper had turned down on the
ground. On the top We're four ba-
sins of strong coffee, and by each
dirty tin was u dirty black biscuit
and an egg. The coffee and eggs
were good, ana the biscuit was good
on the outside, that is, the cater had
to choose between two eyils--dirt
over the top crust, dough under it.
Each loaf was like a cream cake, per-
fcctly soft inside The hungry men
tore off the crust, and after blowing,
scraping and rubbing 1T to remove
the alluvial deposits, put it down
with q gusto and torrents Of coffee.
The inside masses Of dough We're left
by each mans basin. When the
men had finished their meal, and
while they were yet kneeling, tho
host put his soot-begrimmcd and
greasy hand over the box and spoke
again, -Four dollars" lie was paid.
Plump went the silver into his pouch
pocket, and pop went the four mas
ses of dough back into the oven.-
As soon rs a new crust was baked
over them, eggs cooked, and the ba-
sin TefIlcd with coffee fonr more hun
CRY men knest down, ate off the
crust, rejected the rest OF the dough
for another baking, and paid their
dollar each for tho meal. 1t was cal
caIated that enc more stage load of
customers would finish the biscuits
