thus transport them to the ends of the
world at trifing costs. The Maine farm
er, if he would likewise clear himself
from the most hungry of all taxes must cram
his drove of oxen into little packet Of dry
goods. and his whole hay-crop into box of
thimbles.
As already implied in this discussion, d.
versifcation of industry tends to increase of
population. Labor follows business. Where
numerous arts and occupations thrive, labor
Is retained; it is attracted likewise, and I'M
migration, spontaneous and steady, sets in to
swell the home growth of numbers. Massa-
chusetts has added nearly quarter million
to her population in the last decennium, the
logical result of varied industry whose pro-
duct exceeds one million dollars per day for
each working day of the year. Who will go
to Brazil u the La Plata with all their teem-
ing lands? The immigrants that land in ag-
ricultural Canada are drawn by the thousands
yearly into the States where multiplied ave.
cations offer ample field for service. 1t will
be vain for us to bring in foreigners to people
our Aroostook lands, unless policy be ini
tiated that shall keep our people at home.
Without that policy we shall not keep even
the foreigner. Mill wheels in motion on the
Perobscot will set and keep the ploughshare
in motion on the Aroostook and the NADIA
waska.
But this branch of our argument is already
too protracted. There is no class of people,
no form of capacity, no profession, but would
find in the establishment of diversified indus
tries amongst US, large and constant benefit.
We could have better schools, school-h0uses
and school apparatus; better teachers like
wise, as we could pay them better, and thus
justify the choice and practice of the profess
sion we could have more churches, and could
then nav orr ministry alternately for their
services, as we never yet have done. The
tailor, the shoemaker, the blacksmith, the
carpenter, the mason, the painter, the trader,
the dressmaker, the milliner, the washwoman
all would find louder call for their labor,
and larger returns for it. Even the blind
pauper woman who is permitted to earn few
coppers by knitting will know the difference,
when two pairs of feet instead of one stand
waiting for her work, and two bids in place of
one are pitted against each other in her hum
BILE market.
Such are the advantages accruing to the
public, to the whole public, and not privi-
legged class, from the diversifcation of indus
try in its midst. Such we believe would be
realized upon the growth of manufactures in
Maine. Such have been realized here, such
are realized in so far as Investigation of our
industries has extended. If ever, then, pub
lie cooperation, State or municipal, could be
invoked for any public advantage, it would
seem to be properly invoked to secure these,
and such as these, in far greater number than
can be recited. But not to press the argu-
ment unduly to conclusion, it will be here
assumed that manufactures if established
largely amongst us, would be productive of
great public benefit. This granted, other
points will be now taken into consideration.

NO STEPS BACK WARD.

Such is the declaration of General Frank
p. Blair in relation to his Broadhead letter
of 1868. He stands by it now as he stood
by it then. He would drive out every
northern man from the southern States,
or allow the Ku Klux to do it, and regard
less of the vast injustice that might be
done to Union whites and blacks, proceed
to overturn their present State govern
ments and give the rebels full sway.
Mr.. Blair reiterates his former position
while standing in the Missouri legislature
where he is the democratic candidate for
United States Senator. He speaks to
democrats and for democratic support
1t would be sheer nonsense to suppose
that he does not understand what he is
saying OF TO whom he is saying it, and it
would be worse stupidity not to see in this
bold declaration that the line upon which
he proposes to fight out the battle Of 1872
is that which divides rebels and northern
democrats from true Union men. Upon
his platform he hopes to carry the electo-
raj vote of all the southern States, and
enough northern ones to elect democrat
ic President. Mr. Blair is early in the
field, and we thank him for his prompt
avowal Of his principles. Coming after
Mr.. McCreery's outrageous proposition to
dig up the bones of Union soldiers at
Arlington in order that Lees heirs might
not be troubled with them, his revolution
airy announcement will serve to awaken
republicans and show them the pit towards
which the country is drifting while they
are asleep, pleasantly dreaming that party
lines are obliterated and the political mil
lenium at hand The frantic efforts of the
schurz-Brown, boiling republicans of
Missouri, to save at the last moment the
State which they threw away, are quite
different From the happy feelings they had
when locking arms with the democrats to
defeat the regular ticket, but their punish
| ment is no more than they deserve.

your Excelleucy of the general re
suits obtained by the Isthmus of
Darien exploring expedition for
the opening of an interoceanic
ship canal, which l have the hon.
or 10 commspd.
This expedition, composed of
two vessels of the United States
Navy, sailed from New York in
January, 1879, and arrived in the
bay of Caledonia in the month of
February following. A vessel be-
longing to the Pacific Squadron
was sent to cooperate on the Pa
ciic coast.
From the port CT Caledonia va
rious observations were made with
instruments, and also from the
port of Sarsardi toward the north
ern extremity, on two lines which
terminated on the coast of the
Pacific, in the confiuences of the
rivers Sabana Lara. The first of
these lines was to cross the cor
dilleras, follow the valley of the
SucUbti as far as the union of this
river with the Chucunaque and
then cross the Isthmus to the
point fixed OH the Pacific. The
second, starting from Sarsardi,
crossed the Cordilleras in the
neighborhood, and following the
valley of Norti, ended at the same
point as the first.
The observations, carefully made
with the air level, showed that
both lines were impracticable tor
ship canal. The Cordilleras has
not in any part a lower level than
10O0 feet, and the extent of the
area Of the mountains is such as
to render the construction of tun-
nels impossible. Nor does there
exist sufficient quantity of wa
ter to enable US to overcome the
difficulties by means of locks.
The expedition sailed for the
Bay Of San Bias in the latter part
Of April. This route formed the
narrowest part of the Isthmus,
measuring only twenty six miles
from the Atlantic to the naviga.

gave me great hopes that the de,
sired route would be found in
this region. Explorations were
accordingly made, following the
valleys OF the principal rivers
which fall into the Bay of San
Bias, Notwithstanding the princi
pal line followed the Mandingt

and followed the Mamoni dowr
stream until the continent of thu
Bayamo or Chepo River, which
up this point is navigable. TIL,
results obtained were equally I'm
favorable along this line; the low
est level of the Cordilleras in thi
region was found to be 1,134 fee
and there existed heights of 80,
feet each side. This obstacl
could not be overcome either by
tunnel or locks, and to make al
