New YEARS DAY CAILs.-This is set apart
for the blooded racers. Young men Of lash and
spirit are expected to make faster tine than
Dexter ever trotted. In fact, they should be
ubiquitous to meet half the demands made
upon them by this outrageous and barbarous
habit Of trying to see how many Of their friends
they can call upon 10 one day.

people have now perfect right to reclaim 1t II
the public interest renders 1t desirable to do so.
Besides, it has made bad use Of its trust.
Instead Of being conducted in the interests Of
the people, 1t has been made to enrich rings
and combinations by watering the stock and
raising the capital to fictitious value. 1t is
true, as Professor Morse says, that the gov
ernment should pay the existing companies the
full value of their lines, and this is provided
for in the Washburne bill, which Is only the
pioneer of the great movement. Bids are to
be invited for the construction of new lines,
and then the old lines can be purchased by the
government at twenty-five per cent less than
the ascertained cost Of new lines. No fairer
proposition than this can be conceived. It is
just to the companies and to the country
while to take the old lines at their own inflated
and fictitious valuation would be a fraud upon
the people and would defeat the main object Of
the government telegraph. Cheapness Of
transmission can never be attained without
honesty and economy Of construction, and this
is just what Washburne's bill seeks to secure.

Financial TwaddIers In and Ont Of Congress.
Senator Morton made an elaborote speech
on the national finances, and on resumption of
specie payments in particular; the editor of
the chief radical organ here seized the oppor-
tunity to ventilate his crude notions in pre-
tentious and long -winded article in reply; and
Mr. Morton was silly enough to suppose this
was worthy of an answer. 1t is all bandying
of words and mere twaddle. It is proverbial
that men often love to talk great deal about
that of which they know little; and that Is
precisely the case with our Senatorial and
editorial would-be philosophers. There is not
practical idea in their financial lucubrations
The radical editor, who has large stock of
vanity, must be delighted with the indirect
puff received from the Senator. This hobby of
resumption is ridden to death, but the country
is brought no nearer the object aimed at.
In fact forced resumption is impracticable,
whether immediate, as one of these theorists
proposes, or by slower process, as proposed
failed. The British government made several
efforts after the wars with the first Napoleon
were ended, and failed and it was only after
eight to ten years that resumption was
brought about by the natural laws of trade.
Then it came almost imperceptibly, as the dew
falls from heaven. II win come to us in the
same manner, but probably within shorter
period, for the increase Of wealth, trade and
population is much greater here. The amount
of currency in circulation this year will be
found to be insufficient a few years hence.
1t is waste of time, therefore, to discuss the
question of resumption. We shall grow up to
that naturally, and any attempt to force it can
only result in disaster.

TEEN-EU TEA.

From the Tea plantation Of UNG AR
SHOVE to his brother OoNc AR
SHOVE, the great China Tea Nier-
chant, p Union St., Boston.
This celebrated Tea was first sent
to this country in 1868, by ing Ar
Shove, as present to his brother,
for his own use and the use of his
friends. He first raise / the tea in
1865, having got the seed in Can
ton, and, in 1868, he gathered seven
chests, and cured it in porcelain
over slow fire. He and his friends
tried it, and found it superior to any
tea they had ever seen before; 50
they sent samples to all the great
tea dealers in Canton, Hong Kong,
and Pel1in, and they all pronounce
it the best tea they had ever seen.
1t has all the good qualities Of ia
pan, Oolong, and Hyson. Natural
Leaf, perfectly pure, delightful fla
vor, and very strong. They want
jed to engage all he could raise for
their trade; but he sends it all to
his brother in Boston, and we have
what we want Of it for our trade
here. We warrant this to suit all
lovers Of tea; also to be better than
can be bought in the United States
for $l,25 per pound, and we sell it
at the low price Of $l.l0 per ID.

For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine has anything won so widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through long
series OF years, and among most of the races OF
men 1t has risen higher and higher in their esma.
tlon, as 1t has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
of the lungs and throat have made it known as re.
liable protector against them. While adapted to
milder forms of disease and to young children it is
at the same time the most efectual remedy that can
be given for incpent consumption, and the dan.
gerOus affections of the throat and lungs. As pro.
vision against sudden attacks of Group. it should
be kept on hand in every family and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs all
should be provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled CONSUMPTION is thought IN.
durable, still great numbers of cases where the dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured
and the patient restored to sound health bv the
Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat that
the most obstinate of them yield to it. When moth

MIssESF.-A large number Of letters and papers
from the Eastern States, bearing dates of January
and February, were received from San Francisco
last week, all marked missent TO Hongkong.'
The presumption is that one or more bags of mail
matter, put up in san Francisco for Honolulu, were
put on board the China steamer about the end of
February or first of March, instead of being sent on
board the Idaho or other vessel for this port. The
letter of our New York correspondent, on the first
page, was among these missent letters, which will
account for its old date.
