THE latest intelligence from the United
States naval detachment, engaged in ex-
ploring the Isthmus of Darien, is to the
effect that the work has ended without
the discovery of practicable route for a
canal. The survey has doubtless been
sufficiently careful and comprehensive,
and-if the advices are confirmed-will
probably set at rest definitely, so far as
the present resources of engineering sci
ence are concerned, all hopes and specu-
lations based upon the possibility of open
ing marine highway to the East at that
point 1t does not necessarily follow,
however, that feasible route for a ship
canal between the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans is not to be found. Several other
routes have been suggested, and the
practicability of some of them is very
strongly insisted upon by persons who
have had opportunities of obtaining in
formation. If the Darien Isthmus is
proved by competent engineering au-
thority to be impossible, arrangements
will probably be perfected at an early day
for careful reconnaissance of all the
other isthmian regious from Tehuantepee
southwark. Half a dozen of our other
wise useless naval vessels, with their Off
GERS and men, might be proftably en-
ployed in this business, and the work can
not be too soon begun.

BY. way of preface to the following
fungent and truthful paragraph, we may
state that Judge Nicholson does not con-
slider himself as laboring under any disa-
bility disqualifying him to hold office, but
out OF Difference to the wishes of personal
friends, Radicals at that, who desired that
there should not be left even a pretext fol-
carping, the Judge applied to Congress to
remove his supposed disabilities. This
statement does not, however, relieve
the Radicals in Congress, and especially
Horace Maynard, of the ineffable mean
ness that would strike down heightened,
honorable gentleman whose virtues they
cannot emulate. The st. Lous Repubt-
can says:
Before the Senate passed the amnesty
bill, few days ago, it struck out the
name of a o. P. Nicholson, of Tennes-
see, a man whose learning, ability and
knowledge of public affairs make him the
superior of five-sixths of the members of
the United States Senate. His submission
to the authority of the government and
acceptance of the results of the war have
been so complete that not flaw could be
found in them. He has done everything
except join the Radical party. But It
was all too little; the one thing he left
undOne was the very thing exacted of
hiE; had he joiued the dominant party,
he might not only have been amnested, but
honOred with high Office in the govern.
ment which he sought to destroy. The
people of Tennessee desire to make Judge
Nicholson one of the Justices of the SUI
preme Court, and there is not man in
their State, and very few in any State,
better fitted by learning, experience and
personal worth to occupy the position.
But the Senate declares that while an ex-
Confederate like Stokes may be Governor
of Tennessee, if he can be elected, rem
egade Confederate and cadetship dealer
like Butler, of Tennessee, may sit in Con-
gress; an honorable man like Nicholson
shall not serve the people of his State as
Judge of their Supreme Court, nor in any
other important official capacity

The editor of the Jonesboro Herald
and Tribune has been on a visit to Car
ter county, and at Eizabethton he met
the candidates for judicial offices in that
circuit OF the Democratic candidate
for Attorney General he says:
''Mr. Haynes is large, portly gentle
man, and from our limited acquaintance
with him, we believe him to be real
good fellow, but his politics will not meet
with the appreciation of the people in
loyal Garter, and we shall be much sur
prised if his vote is not quite SLIM"
OF the Democratic candidate for Chan
cellor, the editor says:
''AIaj. Mcfarland is spoken of as being
a worthy gentleman, but his politics, as
well as Mr.. Haynes, will not take well in
that county" -.
No objection is made to these gentle
men on the score of ability or qualiica-
ton for the offices they seek. They are
opposed solely on the ground of politics.
Yet these Radicals set up most doleful
cry against introducing politics into our
judicial elections.

THE TRUTH OF HISTORY

Some time ago, Hdrper'S Weekly pub
lished the charge against Gen. Lee, of
Virginia, that he remained attached to the
staff of Gen. Scott in 1861, till the very
last moment before joining the Southern
cause, for the treacherons purpose of
learning all the plans and schemes of his
commander, to be used against him in the
war. Maj. Sidney Herbert, of Troy,
Alabama, who was a staff officer at
Washington in 1861, has published let
ter in which he signally refutes the charge,
by proving that Lee never belonged to the
staff of Gen. Scott, nor was attached to
his military family, nor served near his
person since the Mexican war. Mai.
Herbert's publication drew from Lee
letter of gratitude, in which he confirms
with his own individual statement all the
facts embodied in it.
Gradually the whole truth of the CHS
tory of the great rebellion" is working
out by such controversies as this, says the
st. LOUIS Republican, and the Iabored
falsehoods of a certain school of writers
in the East put to silence forever. Jere.
S. Black did much towards the vindica-
ton of this truth, in the whitening ex-
posure of Senator Wilson's Atlantic
Monthly falsehoods about Stanton in
Buchanan's cabinet and Hon. Gideon
Welles, Secretary of the Navy, recently
did similar service in his exposure of
the untruthfulness of Thurlow Weeds
vain and fippant revelations of the
secrets of Mr.. Lincoln's cabinet. Viii
son has not dared to reply to Black and
Weed will hardly reply to Welles; and
the rebukes both received will perhaps,
smother good many reams of worthless
magazine history that might be given to
the world if there were no one to re-
flute it.

The Baltimore american RadicaD
dominates Grant for a second term, and
says: eff he should consent to allow
the use of his name for a second term, it
will be important that he shall surround
himself by active, energetic and united
councillors; by men of political influence
and character, who will jointly and indi-
vidually, command the respect and conf
dence of the Republican party, both in
and out of Congress" Grant has no idea
of following the advice of the american,
and if that papers support is made con-
ditional that he shall have sensible men
and statesmen in his cabinet, it had as
well look out for another candidate.
Grant has sense enough to know that he
is very small specimen when cOntrasted
with his present cabinet, and heis not go
ing to make the contrast so striking that
every man will have to write him down
the only fool in the administration.
