New Orleans and Montgomery,
Ala, complain of dull times.
There will he a through train from
Monroe, La, to Nicksburg, by the
4th of July.
The chief sensation in New Orleans
is the fresh meat from Texas already
slaughtered.
The youngest child Of Mr.. Bassil,
travelling from Baltimore to New Or
leans, died in Knoxville, Tenn, on
the 2Gth.
The fine old BOatner House, in As
sumption parish, was destroyed, to-
gether with the library furniture, sew
eral days ago.
The new city government Of New
Orleans, which promised to reform
all the abuses Of the Old, is as bad as
its predecessor.
Miss Susan RaynOr, daughter of the
late Right Rev. LeOnidas Polk, Bishop
of Louisiana, was married in New Or
leans, on Tuesday last, to DIR. Joseph
Jones, Of that city,
1t is probable that Gen. Bragg will
be appointed Superintendent Of the
Atlanta water works. He has APP
proved a plan which had been submit

Mr.. VIM. B. Walker, q brother OF
Hon. Alex. Walker, the well-known

TIE well informed Washington
cOrrespondentofthe Baltimore Gazette
says encouragingIy: "There can no
longer beany doubt that the elements
of opposition to the rotten party now
domineering over the people are
abundantly sufficient to sweep the
country at the next Presidential cleo
ton. It is equally apparent that those
masses Of men heretofore afiIiating
with the Radical organization, but
who have become disguised with its
imbeciIity, profigacy and reckless
ness, are not disposed to throw any
d|ihfcultics IN the way of a perfect
union Of ali the materials favorable to
the restoration Of the Government to
an honest and constitutional basis.
From a somewhat extensive inquiry
/ cannot find q single influential poll
tician of the latter class who will not
cheerfulIy cooperate with the Demo-
cratic Conservative party, in the next
national struggle, upon a platform and
candidates entirely satisfactory to its
masses and their trusted leaders.
Regarding this matter as already
substantially settled, ii becomes the
more important that the future Ma
tionaI Executive shcuId be supported
by a sympathizing Congress. The
history of this Confederacy, though
brief, contains many examples Of the
i~neticiency of an Executive, however
honest, capable and patriotic, when
thwarted at every turn by an antago-
ni5tic National Legislature. It may
not be that the Senate can be purified
so soon as the spring Of 1873, but it is
undoubtedly within the easy power
of the present opposition to Grants
administration TO TegeGerate the House
Qf Representatives. even 50 early as the
coming fall. With an Executive and
the popular branch of Congress in har-
mouy, a Senate, however constituted.
could not long resist the will of De0O7e
Of the States. 1t is in this view that
the recent caucus of Democratic and
Conservative members of Congress
have recommended prudence and the.
utmost activity in selecting and eject
ing proper candidates for Congress
and the State Legislatures at the APP
preaching elections. 1t is impossible
to exaggerate the importance of this
admonitiOn."
He adds that Incorporation Of all
the clements of opposition to the Rad
icaI faction" is the word with every
man who really desires the pacifca-
ton of the country on rational and
permanent principles. And that laws
offurther aggressive action in the line
reconstruction il is thought are in
capable Of Observation-Disclosures alone
to the uprising Of. the people in all
quarters.

COMMENTING on the address of the
Democratic members of Congress, the
Age says: "In all the close Congress
sionaI Districts, a full vote will be a
defeat for the Radicals, and that vote
can be reached by increased activity
on the part Of the friends of a united
country and a constitutional govern
ment. The suggestions in reference
to elections in the Southern States are
just, wise and polite, and will be fol
lowed with the most happy conse-
quences. As a whole, the address is
fully up to the requirements of the Oc-
casion, and will start the campaign in
such a manner as to inspire all the
true friends Of the nation with fresh
hope for the future"
Speaking of the situation in Penn
sylyania, and in allusiOn to bad seleC-
tions of men on the Radical ticket, the
same firm Democratic paper says:
90 The facts have made a Judgement in
the public mind. They cannot be
displaced or prevented from affecting
the actions of a large class OF citizens
who, heretofore, have voted for the
candidates Of the Radical party.
These men are now willing to CO.
operate with the Democratic party if
proper persons are named to fill the
various offices. They will not change
from an incompetent Radical to a II
incompetent Democrat. They could
not be asked to do so. They
will not indorse wrong, riot
and rowdyism on the Demo
side while regulating
these acts on the part of the
Radicals. Such a course would be
inconsistent aud unworthy Of sensf-
BILE men. II, therefore, we wish to
enlist this large and influential class
of citizens in behalf of the Democratic

MOBILE is in an awkward attitude.
Governor Alc0rn threatens to build q
city on the Gulf coast between No
bile and New Orleans, and to concen-
traUe there the whole railroad system
Of Mississippi. The scheme is by no
means impracticable, at least coast
surveys pronounce the project feasible.
Such q city viii destroy Mobile and
absorb much of the wealth OF New
Orleans. Worse than this for Mobile,
Stant0n's road from Chattanooga,
which will double the wealth Of Ala
bama within ten years, never reaches
Mobile, leaving the unfortunate city
one hundred miles to the left. For
rests Memphis and Selma road,
equally s~ubversive of Mobile inter
ests, leaves the unfortunate city far
away on the right. What must No
bile do? To stand still is hamilton
and death. I'm what direction can
she move forward? Memphis opens
q gateway 10 The Northwest through
which Mobile may send the wealth
of the West Indian and South Ameri-
can States and distribute ia every
ocean inlet and among Spanish
American cities everywhere, the
breadstufs and bacon Of the new
Northwest. Mobile must move. For
rest and Stanton have each placed a
living hrecOal on the terrapin's back.

YESTERDAYS APPEAL contained q
statement taken from another paper,
giving distances by several routes
from Chattanooga to the Pacific coast.
The paragraph contained many mac
curacies. The air line distance, near
the fist parallel Of latitude from Coun-
ell Bluff TO Benicia, is 14lO miles, and
by railroad route 2032 miles. The
cost Of road along this line is esti-
mated at SLIGO OO 900. The surveyed
railroad route along the 3Sth and 39th
parallels from the Mississippi to San
Francisco, is 20S0 miles. On this line
there is "a point IO,032 feet above the
level of the sea, and a tunnel at an
elevation of 4l7g feet. If anything
were impossible this road would be
pronounced impracticabIe. Theroute
along the @5th parallel, from Fort
Smith TO san Francisco, is 1850 miles
ON an air line, and 20gG by surveyed
railroad route. The estimated cost Of
this road for this distance Is SlOG, 000,-
900, and the highest point above the
sea is 1850 feet. From Fort Smith TO
San Pedro, along the Both parallel,
the railroad distance is 1920
miles the cost So, 900, 600.
From Fulton, along the sd parallel
or Gulf coast route, the railroad dis
lance is 202I miles, and the cost, as
given by Lieutenant Parke, who sur
veyed the line, is So, $50, $50. From
Fulton TO San Pedro, ON the 32d par
aIeI. therailroad distance is 1898 miles,
the cost s6o,0 900, 900. From Fulton,
along the same parallel to San Diago,
the distance 1888 miles, the cost $780,
600, 600, and road for 81 miles of
it-length penetrate an arabic country.
The best country is along the 32d par
aIIel route from Fulton to San Fran
cisco, which, for s3i miles of its
Ieagth, passes through rich arabic
plains. From Fort Smith to San
Francisco, along the Both parallel, a
distance as the railroad will run, cf
2J96 miles, there are 646 miles Of the
route thr0ugha good farming country.
The first Southern Pacific road built
will probably be along this route.
The work is now in progress, and a
bin am~endatory Of the act incorporat-
ing the Atanti. and Pacific company,
and investing IL with addi-
tional grants is now pending
i'm Congress. To have access to
this road, the Little Rock road
must be extended beyond Fort Smith
into the Indian territory penetrated
by the Atlantic and Pacific line which
comes down from ST.. Louis and
Springfield, Mo. There are ~hercuIean
tasks to be achieved by Memphis, but
each one accomplished renders the
next a Iessened eXactiOu upon our
energies, and therefore the necessity
for shat great road to the Southeast
Atlantic which Forrest builds, draw
ing hlther branch lines from all roads
west of the Mississippi. 1t is the road
to Kansas City that makes Mobile
anxious to reach Memphis, not only
because Mobile thus secures a direct
route over the Union Pacific to San
Francisco, but to the grain aud bacon
fields of the new Northwest. For the
same reason, operating upon the new
Northwest, its anxiety TO reach Mem
phis depends upon the construction
Of the road to Selma and the sea.

THE grain fields of the South,
though the area of country devoted to
such crops is small, never promised a
more abundant harvest. If we may
have abundant cereals and thus cheap
bread and bacon, the loss of a large
share Of the cotton crop signifies moth
ing. Bread brings emigrants, and
the less the cost Of living, the greater
the number of small farmers drawn
into the South. The heavy rains
that injured the cotton crop were for
tunate in effects upon grain fields. 1t
is only to be regrett : that even more
grain will not be garnered. With pIen-
ty and peace, and the reproduction OF
good government under the sway of
Democracy, the South will soon be
richer and more prosperous than ever
before.

ton at the nominating elections and

is the choice Of good delegates. Men
must be selected who have the good

purposes. Such men can be found and
chosen if every Democrat viii take

proper direction. Too often a few
persons, and they not representing

Gratis of an election division, settle the
whole matter of delegates. They
meet in secret, put up the individuals
and have them returned. When this

Earthquakes near Quito.

From III National, published in Quito,
and the official organ Of the Government,
a description OF an exceptionally strange
NOV ement of nature is taken and here
with appended. The Governor of the
province of Manaba, in Ecuador writes
to the Secretary of State Of that Repub
lie, under date Of the 10th of February
last, on account OF the phenomenon.-
He says: 'Siuce the 29th OF January
it has been visible between Cape Passado
and Point de Nenado Within an area
of nearly two marine leagues the earth
IS rocking in dizzy pillows; In some places
yawning chasmS stretch-agape, IN other
locations perfectly cut geometrical figures
appear; deep holes in the shape of cyl
inders, angles, and squares open to en-
gulf. Mountains are lifting themselves
out of the sea, and the ittoral bills are
sinking to the sea level. Forests are fail
ing. and great lime rocks are swelling
from the earth to the surface. Lakes
are coursing crookedly over the land like
rivers. All is mutation, and the face OF
nature is changelessly changeful, retain
ing the same appearance but for moment
This volcanic agitation, which has been
going on for four days, follows course
from west to east, and embraces eighteen
miles III that direction.

Fenians to Cut OFF the Canadian
Winnipeg Expedition.

Louisville Clay 8JDispatoh to the Cincinnati Gazette
There is quite a stir among the Fe-
mans tonight They are evidently
thinking seriously Of war. For some
time past they have been purchasing
arms and have large stock On hand.
The members of the brotherhood have
been drilling nightly. The impression is
that the troops have received marching
orders. They are at least holding them
selves in readiness for such orders. The
object Of the movement is evidently to
capture the Winnipeg expedition, which
is to be sent from Canada to the Red
River country to suppress the rebellion in
that region. The Canadian expedition
Will carry with them large quantity Of
arms and stores, and it's capture would
be good thing, besides striking a severe
blow at the British lion. Owing to the
absence Of the Federal troops they ap-
prehend no resistance from the govern
ment. The plan adopted is to concen-
trate large number of men in citizens
dress at points On the border within
striking distance, and the British are ex-
pected to come as far as St. Mary S
Canal in boats, and march around on
British soil. The Fenifns propose to
capture the empty boats, cutting of re-
treat, and then attack the troops with
sufficient force to annihiiate them. The
leaders say the plan is feasible, and will
be carried out.

Hon. Phil. Sawyer.

It having been asserted In some Of the
newspapers that Hon, Philetus Sawyer
would not be a candidate for rcnomina-
ton, the Oshkosh Northeastern intimate
that no such declinati0n has been rcceir-
ed from Mr. Sawyer himself, nor does it
believe that there will be. On the con-
trary, it expresses the reasonable belief
that he viii consent to run again If il is
the desire of the Republicans Of the dis
trlat. While We recognize the lmpr0prie-
ty of outsiders meddling in the affairs Of
other districts, the services Of an eXper-
fenced and competent man in Congress
are of so much real importance to the
people of the State at large, that we
must be excused If we express the wish
to see 'Old Philetus," as he is famil-
iarly called, returned for an indefinite
period. Every Wisconsin man who has
ever spent any time in Washington, need
not be told how well and faithfully he
has attended to the duties that apper-
tain to his own State, but they know how
efficiently be works for the whole coun-
try in aiding needed and wholesome leg
islation. That he Is an eminengly sound
and practical business man at home,
everybody agrees, and the same good,
hard, common sense, which Is OF more
value in representative than college
training and oratorical accomplishments,
has made him one Of the most useful
members OF the House. While all of the
worthy gentlemen who aspire to ELL his
place, are our personal and political
friends, whose elevation we should be
glad to aid, we most frankly say we be-
Iieve Mr.. Sawyer can serve the interests
Of the State better for the present, than
either OF them.-.JdaeSUiPe Gazette.

commissioner Parker's explanation Of
the Indian difficulties and his anticipations
of an early, long, and expensive war are
equally diseouraging. In the first place
ne states that we are unprepared to cope
with the Indians. This is bad. but
might be worse, for we can, in time, re-
cruit our cavalry to an adequate force
But what is worse than all this is the
fact that it is Congressional procrastina-
ton in making appropriations to pay the
promised annuities to the Indians, and
Presidential failure to prevent large ex-
petition Of miners from invading Indian
reservations on o prospecting tour,
which threatens to provoke the war.
Commissioner Parker thinks the starting
Of this party will precipitate the blood
lest and most expensive Indian war we
have ever had. Since it is manifestly
unjust to the Indians and ourselves that
this expedition should march, why does
not the President stop it? And if Com
missioner Parker can, as he says, have
peace BY paying cur promises, why does
not Congress make the appropriation
