Judge Jacobs at Home.


We clip the following from the Sturgis
(Mich.) Journal, giving an account of the
reception Of Judge Jacobs at his old home
in Michigan:
"On Monday night, the band, accom-
panied by quite goodly number of our
citizens, went to the house of Mr.. Hiram
jacobs, for the purpose of serenading
Judge Orange Jacobs son of Mr.. Hiram
Jacobs Ofthis place, who left Sturgis when
young man, and has since made his
home west Of the Rocky Mountains, this
being bis first visit to the home OF his
youth since his departure.
After the band had played Mr.. Jacobs
was called upon for speech. He thanked
them for this manifestation of their re-
spect aud friendship For twenty years
he had been a wanderer on the Pacific
Coast, and although he had been seFarat-
ed by so great distance and for so long
a time. yet his mind had ever reverted to
Stursis as the happiest aud greenest spot
of his life.
In looking around he noticed that twen-
~ years had wrought many changes in
Sturgis; that its borders had been en-
larged, its Inhabitants increased, and that
there were many strang" faces in the place
Of those that were once familiar. s.
He said that his home was situated on
the placid waters of Puget Sound, which
was termed the Mediterranean Of America,
and although three thousand miles sepa-
rated our homes from his, yet we lived in
the same free country, and the same emo
lions that swell in onr hearts find an echo
in the breast of those on the Pacific
Coast, and the same flag that feats over
our homes, floats over theirs.
He again thanked them for their kind
regard and friendship, and said that he
would be happy to take all by the hand,
whereupon many who had not seen him
for twenty years, improved the opporiu-
nifty, and many others were introduced by
Gen. Stouglhon.

From AcRoss THE PGcITIc.-Tbe for.
lowing despatch IS found among the
Washington news of June l6: A dis
patch from Admiral Ro gers is received at
the Navy Department, dated Berse Island.
Oorea, June 3rd, sent from Shanghai. Our
Minister and the Corean Envoys ok.
changed professions Of amicabIe intentions.
The Coreans made no objections to the
survey Of their waters. The Mouocacy
and Palos and four steam launches were
sent on the firrt of June to examine the
cable at point called Difficult Passage,
on the French chart No. 275O, whore
navigation is the most perilous. Masked
batteries. manned by several thousand
Corrans, were unmask4d, and opened a
heavy fire without warning. A French
ship in advance fought gallan'ly. Our
vessels bearing up, drove tue enemy from
their works. The tid. swept all the ships
past the batteries. They anchored and
threw three shells among the retiring
enemy. 1he communication received
says there is possibility that We may
open negotiations otherwise, since the
Coreans have mrt peaceful overtures with
unprovoked war, our forces will land and
after destroying the forts, will take such
other measures as the interests of tiyiliza-
ton demand

"A New IDEA. "A plan has been pro
posed by Mr.. Gaylurd, and endorsed by
Mr.. Hlrs,om. Unitel STATES naval
constructor, and others, to transport YES,
sells and their cargoes from ocean to ocean
across the lsthmus of Panama. The plan
is to run the vessel into a dock and pnt
her on cradle set on trucks. The water
is to be pumped out, after, having raised
the whole to proper grade, and loco>
motive attached to the whole which wonld
be hauled away the same as any other
load. The road is to be made from 40 10
GO fee. wide, and constructed in such
manner that it will bear any weight. The
estimated cost OF a railway, including
docks, rtc., across the lsthmus, 81 miles,
is $22, 100000. while canal with the
Necessary hcks and basins would cost
eight times that much.
