PULLMAN's PALACE CARs.-It does not
take an old man to remember the days of
stage coaching over rough roads, or rail-
nap once in TWEEN ty.four hours, therefore,
there are few of our readers who will fail to
appreciate the great change effected by Mr..
Pullman in the Introduction of his celebra-
ted "Palace Cars,n in which the traveller,
while being whirled along at the rate of
forty miles an hour, Can enjoy all the COM
forts of g frst-class hotel, either in eating,
sleeping, or resting. Divided into compart.
ments, these cars afford perfect privacy to
family parties, or ladies travelling without
escort; having large windows. they admit of
general view of the country passed
through, besides giving perfect ventilation;
and the beds being scien tifcally. arranged
so as to prevent shocks from stoppages, OR
jarring from rough roads, the passenger can
sleep as soundly in them as at home.
One can not too highly consider these
advantages while travelling, when it is re-
membered that through their agency, time,
which heretofore was almost entirely lost,
can be utilized and made profitable. The
lawyer can here prepare his cases uninter-
rupted by fellow travellers; the physician
study out his patients diseases and make
notes; the minister write out his sermons
while en- route to the place where they are
to be delivered; the correspondent write
his letters while the thoughts occurring by
the scenes passed through are fresh in his
memory; the lady can sew or knit, and the
child pursue its studies as usual Some
writer has estimated that the American
people travelled one-sixth of their time,
which, besides the expense of transports.
ton cost the loss of the product of that
fraction of their lives. Pullman's Palace
cars will remedy that loss, and we doubt
not will become a necessity on all roads, Of
any length, and may be fitted up with
special accommodations for the different
trades and callings, such as books for the
professional tools for the mechanic, and
sewing machines for the ladies'.
At present they are particularly devoted
to comfort, and are beyond doubt as near
perfection as human ingenuity can reach.
The ennui of long trip by rail is now
among the things spoken of as no longer
experienced. Persons desiroas of learning
more particulars concerning these cars can
do so by applying to Colonel James T.
Tucker, general agent of the Illinois Central
Railroad, at No. 26 Carondelet street.

The New York Sun SAYS:

The Suez canal will have an immense in
fluence in developing commercial prosperity
throughout the Mediterranean and the
Levant. A regular line of steamers is now
established from Constantinople, by way OF
the canal, the Red Sea and the Persian
Gulf, to Bassorah on the Euphrates. Bag
dad, the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf ports
are thus brought into direct communication
with Constantinople by sea. Steamers
carry passengers for two hundred dollars
from Trieste to Bombay. Unless canal is
soon cut through the Isthmus Of Nicaragua,
the canal of Suez will work mischief upon
the American and Asiatic trade. The Amer,
ican government has shown little apprecla--
ton Of the effects produced by the success
Of the Suez canal, and it's proceedings in
respect to the subject have been marked by
all the ph!egm and stolidity which distin-
guish the present Rip Van Winkle admins
tration of foreign affairs.

would-be wit, who has no affection nor
consideration for politicians, has bored us
considerably of late. He is evidently down
on Sypher, and has no love for Newsham
and we have distant kind of an idea that
he is not fond of US, from the fact that he
sometimes hints that he takes US for poll
tician. Upon the receipt of the news that
our friend Newsham had been seated in Con-
gress, this wOuld-be wit rushed into our
presence. with the utterance that they had a
"new sham" in Congress that didn't amount
to as much as the old "cipher." Upon
asking him what he meant, he, Yankee like,
answered us by asking if we hadn't heard
the news from Washington? Then we began
to see what he was driving at-but answered
mo, for the purpose or giving him chance
to perpetrate horrible joke. "Well," says
he, "they have got rid of their Sypher, only to
have Newsham played off upon them." and
then vamoosed the ranch, evidently thinking
his naughtyjoke would cause us to strike him
if he remained within our reach. Speaking
of shams, reminds US of something that is
no sham, and that is the Louisiana State
Lottery. It's next single number drawings
take place on the fourth of June, and all
who wish to enjoy the luxury of a veritable
prize, had better secure tickets at once.

The Third District.

We expressed several weeks since both the
hope and the confident expectation that the
threatened disturbance of the existing quiet OF
this congressional district would be obviated,
by the consent of Hon. Worthington c. Smith,
our present honorable and honored representa-
tive, to be a candidate for denomination. That
hope, We are glad to say, is not to be disap-
pointed. Under strong urging from many
been case Of genuine reluctance on his part
to allow bis name to be taken into the district
convention, as : candidate for a third nomins
ton and election We are glad to learn also,
that Governor Hendee, who has been widely
mentioned as a candidate for the succession has,
from a regard for the harmony of the district
which is TO his credit, decided upon, and We
understand will formally announce, the with
drawal of his name from the canvass.
From what Is known of the position of one or
two other gentlemen whose names have been
mentioned as probable or possible candidates,
we are safe in saying tina; the union on MIR.
Smith will be as hearty and emphatic through
out the district as at any previous time lie
will, beyond question, receive the unanimous
nomination Of the convention, and we heartily
congratulate the district on the prospect.
The pressure of other matters on our column
dermits us only to make this bare announcement
to day, reserving to another day some observa-
tons on 4 matter Of such interest and impor-
lance to the Republicans Of the Third District

Some idea of what is meant by ''the bal
ance of power" in Europe may be gained by
observing the effect on the nations of that
continent of the possibility Of its partial
disturbance. France, one of the most power
ful Of these, declares war against Prussia,
another Of almost equal power. Should
either party thoroughly thrash the other. the
victor would be too strong for its neighbors
comfort, the vanqnished too weak to help its
friends. All the spectators of the fight,
therefore, are seconds, ready to become prin-
cipals at moments notice. Austria is rap
idly placing her army on war footing,
Italy is largely raising the number Of her
forces. The papal minister Of war is form
ing camp Of observation. England Is
straining every nerve to put her coast de-
fences in order and perfect her fleet. Den
mark being also maritime nation, is doing
the same. Russia stands ready for fight. as
she always seems to be; and probably if we
could get the information, We should find
she was concentrating her forces on
points possessing the most rapid communiea-
ton with her western frontier. The only
nation Of any importance which seems to he
taking things more coolly than others is
Spain which considering, the origin of all
this trouble, is a rather singular circumstance.
