E'r. Holden, the lately deposed Governor
of North Carolina, is said to have expressed
the most earnest desire that President Grant
might be made Emperor, with the right Of
succession to his son. the present ruler of
the West Point Academy. Not long after
this wish was uttered Holden was impeach
ed, convicted of high crimes and misde-
meanors, and turned out of Office as Gov
ernor. This shows that in his case imperi-
aIist sentiments were no'protection against
popular justice. The New York Sun, very
radical, says: Congress has passed what is
known as the Ku Klux Force bill, which
confers upon President Grant authority
more than imperial, enabling him to control
the elections in half the Union by military
power and to make himself President in
1872, contrary to the will of the people
Will he dare to exercise this prerogative?
If he does, he will find that popular justice
will treat him and mis- imperialjst aspira
tions quite as rudely as it has now treated

The IMPORTANCE OF THE PENINSULA. -
There is no better proof OF the importance OF
the Peninsula to the three great cities of New
York, Phadephia aud Baltimore than the
following extract from ar editorial in the
Phia. North american of yesterday.
Railroads. are working great change in the
whole character as the people in the pouinsu-
Ia, and, although it is necessarily slow from
the nature of the race, it makes steady head
way. There would probably be more impetus
il there were more railroads. Hence, We think
the general policy in that section should be tn
build them, without much regard to where
they run so long as they connect with the
main lines somewhere. The trade of this
peninsula is of more Importance than most oi
the merchants and manufacturers of PhilaIel
phia seem to be aware, and it would bu uf tai
more importance If properly cultivated. New
Y fork has made persistent Ctfurts 10 get a foot
hold by means of steamship Inc from Lewis
town to New York and the consruciitn Of
pier there, connecting with the interior by
means of the Junction Railroad. We presum,
that ultimately this effort will succeed chou2i
the whole trade OF that district is within GU
easy reach by rail ard rriage Ba timor,
has made many efforts to recover her los
trade on th4 Ea. ero Shore, but without mucl
success.
| What We need is the construction Of NOR
branch lines tributary To the Delaware Rail
road, and these should be built and put in IL
without delay. That the country will bea
these roads and yield profit is proven by al
past experience. The railroads are carryin
emi grafton to region that had long been en-
tirely out of the line Of its movements, an
are directing the great current of northern er
terpriSe thilher also. But a beginning onl
has yet been made toward a proper developt
ment of the peninsula. All the towns ougl
to be much larger than they are at the rreSen
in order to stimulate the movements of pop,
lation, industry, trade and intelligence.
fact, the mission of Philadelphia in the pc
in>ula is to create trade and to build up ne
te and vigor there. No section of the sou
ever stood more in need of it, but We are ca
veniently located for the work aud have abu
dant means aud ample facilities.
