The impaired health of the British
Queen excites, everywhere, keen
anxiety and much speculation as to
the future Of England. By the
advice Other physicians she has again
withdrawn from London to the High
lands. The conduct and character Of
the heir apparent, his confessed de-
pravity, reckless waste Of money and
disreputable HQisors have alienated
the affections even Of the most loyal.
The more laWless and shameless the
conduct Ct Grant and Congress the
more desperately loyal and devout
becomes q peculiar class Of our people.
But such facts have different results
in England. The heir apparent has lost
caste and impaired the historical
prestige Of the monarchy which
appeals rather to the imagina-
ton than reason Of the multitude.
The question, therefore, arises,
what must follow the Queens
demise? VIII the necessity for a
monarch, such as the Prince of Wales
viii make, as a useful fiction, still
subsist? An EngIishman's ideas, as
we discover even here, run in deep
worn ruts, and John Bull will be slow
to adoptrepublican ideas and systems.
It is bot the less true that these have
steadily, and ever rapidly In this
century, achieved triumphs. Grace
fully enough aristOcratical pref
udices and creeds have given way
the r~esistless pressure Of reform
and this habit Of tardy concession to
popular rights may assure to the
British monarchy a green old age.
makingit the survivor Of all European
kingdoms. The consolidated debt oil
empire constitutes the strongest
most iDdestruefible basis Of ~oonservs-
ism. and The Queens death will
hardly befhe signal, as has been as
for revolution or for any radi-

BRIGHT ASPECT OF Our FORTUNES.
The Memphis system Of railroads
was not originally planned with per
feet wisdom. A share Of antagonism
existed between this city and Nash
vile, or between the builders of the
Charleston road and the ring that
ruled Nashville, Which caused the
great highway to be DETECTED from its
proper course, and to avoid the State
capital. Holly Springs, through the
intellectual ioT se of its people, gov
erned Mississippi, and when that
naseent city found itself aban-
doned by the Charleston road,
the Mississippi Central sprang into ex-
istence. 1t was the tone man power'
at Jackson, Tennessee, which, as we
have heard, caused the Mobile and
Ohio road unwisely to seek a north
ern terminus st Columbus, Kentucky,
instead OF at Memphis. These facts,
and this creation OF a system of late
raj roads, and Of others that sought
the sea over routes unwisely chosen,
have been deemed calamitous to this
city. Final results may be very
different from those we have
been accustomed to contemplate.
We have railway connection with
jackson, with Holly Springs,
Nashville and Columbia. The routes
are not direct, but the roads enrich
and populate districts Of country /
which would have long remained I'M
explored but for the peculiar infu-
ences governing the conduct of men
at the time these highways were con-
structed. Now that the country
grows rich, population dense'and in
terror towns prosperous, those direct
short lines, which should first haye
been created, wiz be supplied. Forrest
bisects the Mississippi Central at H0l- /
" Springs, and the Mobile and Ohio
road at Okolona, and thus these two
highways, once deemed detrimental
10 Memphis, become Invaluable adj
Of the eity's prosperity. The
Memphis and jackson road, while IL
win double the trade OF Jackson, viii

1t is hardly possible to send the
DAILY APPEAL, which costs Us twelve
dollars per annum, in exchange for all
the weeklies that ask it. Its trans
mission to three hundred weeklies
costs US $500 per annum, and we can
not afford to do more. We would
be pleased to have every weekly in
the country, but cannot afford to pay
at this rate for all. As a business
transaction, the difference in annual
subscription price should be paid by
the weeklies, but then the APPEAL
must be wrapped and mailed daily
and such a mode of making exchanges
has not been generally adopted in the
South. These facts are stated simply
because a respect for rules Of decent
economy, and not selfshness or self
sufficient vanity, suggest them. 1t is
not that we deem weeklies, that
would exchange with Us, v~alueless,
but simply because we cannot well
afford the cost.

Ohio, making II an agency for the de-
veIopment Of the wealth OF counties
that must contribute 70 the re-
sources of our trade. The road
to Padueah crosses the Mobile and
Ohio, and thus for the third time this
great lateral road, once pronounced a
measureless calamity, becomes the
ehieiest Of benefactions. 1t enly re-
mains for Memphis TO perfect the sys-
tenn Of shorter lines that traverse the
greater roads, and these last must
prove as advantageous as IL originally
built to aggrandize rather than de-
stroy our city; and 1t viii be con-

spirit very like that OF Communism
pervades British society. TO its
strength adventures and Hxiies from
France and other nations have minis
tered. The telegraph tells US that the
Republican party Of London adopted
the following declaration OF purposes;
The application OF the principle Of
federation to the kingdom. The abo-
lition Of titles and privileges. The
suppression OF monopOlies. The abo-
lition Of standing armies. Compul.
sorry education. The State TO provide
work for those laborers who are able
To work, and sustenance for those who
are incapacitated from work. The na-
tiOnalization Of land. Popular legisla-
ton, and the diffusion Of Republican
ism.
A creed like that Is not well caleu-
lated TO promote the digestion of solid
beef, or give zest to the delights of
'alf and ALI, and the death of the
Queen may shock the commerce and
peace Of the world.

The Little Rock Gazette of the 10th
instant says: hThe new synagogue of
our Hebrew fellOw-eitizens is fast ap-
preaching completion. II is located
on Center street, one lot removed
from Third. All the brick work has
been completed for some time, and
nearly all the wood work is now done.
1t is decidedly a handsome building.
Captain Arnold Syberg Is the author
of the design. The building is two.
stories, sixty-fve feet long, thirty-five
feet wide and fifty feet high. The roof
is OF tin. The first story contains two
rooms, which are to be devoted TO Sab
bath schools and religious meetings.
The second story viii be used as the.
temple for religious worship. The
building will cost about $4,000 to
$4,000. We have seldom seen a more
imposing ediice built for this sum.
The money for the purpose Of paying
for this building was raised by the
B'nai Israel Society and the Ladies'
Hebrew Benevolent Association, by
festivals and fairs. AS soon as the
is ready for occupancy, e rabbi
viii be employed as pastor. Our He
brew citizens deserve much credit for
the energy and taste displayed in the
erection Of their new house OF worship
"a building which viii be an orna-
ment to the city and an honor to
themselves.

Heiskel was a native Of Maryland,

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

INDEPENDENT STAGE LINE.-The Scott Valley
people propose starting stage line, within six
ty days, to run from Yreka and connect with
the mail line from Red Bluff to the north. We
learn that the indignant Democracy of Scott
Valley, at the convention held in Sskiyou coun-
ty on the 18th instant, united in nominating
ticket outside of Yreka for the reason that the
Ireka people brought about the late change in
the mail route from Red Bluff to OREGON. The
special Postal Agent, in passing through this
county not long since, stated that the facts had
been greatly misrepresented to she Department
From the best information we can get it appears
that the change of mail route referred to was
brought about through the efforts of the mail
contractors and the residents along the Sacra-
mento river road and of Yreka Not long ago
the General Agent of the Stage Company, at
Red Bluff, told of our prominent citizens
that the proposed change would effect large
yearly reduction in the expenses of the company.
One thing is inevitable: The railroad being
built up the Sacramento Valley will carry the
mail, and as it progresses stage lines will con-
meet with it. Minersville and Trinity Centre
mails must ultimately be carried by way of Wea-
verville.

PIPE OF OTHER DAYs.-Mr r. Peters whose
return last week was chronicled by us, has pre-
sented Under-S Sheriff Jacob Paulsen with an an
cient meerchaum brought from the old country
by the donor. 1t is large, capacous pipe,
with massive silver mountings and of great age
How old cannot be known, but the figures en-
graved on the cap piece show that it dates as far
BACK as 1914. Mr.. Peters obtained it from a
wel-to-do farmer, in whose family it had re-
mained for many years. When that old pipe
was new, my boys" how different bleeding, ex-

Now AND THEN.-Mr. Joseph A. Rowe, who
was here last Thursday as Advance Agent of the
New York Mammoth Circus, was proprietor
OF the first Circus that visited Weaverville
That was in 1856. Everything had to be
"packed over the mountains. At the time
the troupe arrived in Weaver Basin there were
about 1900 people in town. The crowd went
out to meet the performers, formed into process
cesson below Fagg-town, and marched back to
town with the band at the head. The company
performed three nights and one afternoon, a:
two dollars ticket, and it was said took away
ten thousand dollars.
