RssolrsS. That the President Of this Chamber be,
and b. Is hereby requested TO copies OF these
resolutions to be forwarded to representatives
in Congress- with the request that the same be laid
before the Senate and House Of Representatives, OF
the United States" sflr aa1-sA
One of the speakers, in remarking upon
the subject. stated that the foreign trade
texports and imports,l of the Australian
colonies amounted to the enormous sum
of 1915, oOO, 900, which of course includes
the trade with Great Britain. In this con-
nection he said:
II had no idea tina, il amounted to such proper
tions until came 10 look up official statistics on
the subject We in California are accustomed TO be
excited over trade with 1000 miners. A White
Pine, for instance, turns up, aud We Immediately
proceed to build castles in the air" overit Here
is trade offered rs which amounts to many White
Pines, in which We eau al least participate. Last
YEAR as much as s6.0O0Ooo were paid for first
class passesgers between England and Australia.
1t will take but short time TO make that own.
The route via this point Is much shorter, sPeedier
healthier and altogether so much more varied in its
scenery than any other that the putting ola first
class line Of steamers will al once inaugurate large
passenger trade In addition to the irstelass pas
sengers there were still larger number in the in
termediate, most of whom sonld probably come
this way. Then 900 had been psid last year
for freight. Another word we need hardly say in
reference TO the Importance of this matter. Pacti-
cal business men would realize the value of such
figures. This connection with Australia would be
one OF the links in the great chain of commerce
which it prophesied would result TO this nation
by the completion OF the Great Railroad"
The statement was also made at the
meeting of the Chamber, that several OF
of the Australian colonies had united in
giving notice to the Peninsula and Orient
al Steam Navigation Company, to diseon-
tinue their subsidies after the present year,
and that they have now made tender OF
the subsidy so withdrawn. to a line OF
steamers to connect with San Francisco.
Below we give table from the Akd
California, giving the freight and passen-
ger trade of Australia and OF islands on
the route during 1859:

1t is claimed that a large number Of first
class passengers between Australia and
England would probably take the route
via San Francisco, which is much more
healthy than that now taken, as well as
a shorter one by several days. There is
no doubt but that large amount of
this travel would be gained should first
class line of steamers be established, but
that all Of it would be diverted from the
old route. is somewhat doubtful.

On this question of railroads the Cadiz
Republican has the following items:
The effort of the citizens living in Piney
Fork was originally directed to procuring
the right of way and raising stock for tho
construction OF a road from Portland, on
tue Ohio river, up Short Creek and Piney
Fork to Hopeaalc, thence By wayOf Clear

The people living on the Middle FOrE;
of Short Creek are IabOring justas earnest

money, with the intention Of bringing the
road up that creek directly for Cadiz,
thence along Standing Stone Fork and
Saltwater to Chrichsville.
The movers in the Piney Fork and

"Well, | would have fused around
some way or other until | cut my way
through tie Prussian lines.
Then you don't think Bazatne need
have shut himself up so closely In MetZ?'
WAS the next question put To the Prest'
dent.
"Certainly not" answered the Presi'
dent, "he ought to have forced his way
through the PrusSians with such fine
army as that which was under his con
troll" Is 'CGt 2G
In reply 10 the question "What do you
think will be the result Of the whole con
test!" The President said: "Inever had
any doubt that the Prussians would win
their military SYSTEMS so superiorto that
Of the French. You cannot expect thai
raw recruits can long maintain themselves
against skilled, well trained and veteran
soldiers. The whole male Prlssian COM
munity Is used to arms and discipline; the
French simply had regular army,
and aEler that nothing worthy the name
OF army. The PrusSians sent into the
field large well appointed and disciplin'
ed army, and were able TO replace that
with Others equally efficient. The French
after the loss OF their first fine regular
force, had nothing but raw material to
fall back upon. The French system dis
Outraged the use Of arms among the peo'
pie. We would never think here Of using
up our regular army at the start; we
would first employ our volunteers and
militia, and keep the regulars for the last
resort. The reason is obvious: II yOn
place the regulars in front at first the ct.
feet Of their defeat or retreat Is disastrous
upon the volunteers, who naturally think
that ifthc veteran trained soldiers cannot
maintain themselves, Of course it is useless
for the less efficient to make an effort"
These views Of the President, no doubt
will be read with interest both here and in
Europe. They are not, very crcditable to
Bazaine, nor to the general management
OF the war on the French side.
