TIE NEW TR1NS-CONTINE

Twenty years ago, whoever presumed to ad-
vOcate the construction of Railroad from our
Atlantic to our Pacific States was popularity re-
garded as demagogue fishing for votes in
very shallow water or as a moon struck vision
ary day, one completed line across the con-
tinent has for nearly three years been making
regular trips, and is now bringing us cargo
after cargo of Teas and Silks from China
and Japan; another has already crossed
the Mississippi, will this year reach the
great bend of the upper Missouri, and be
finished within five years; while third (the
Southern) will be well begun this year and
completed within seven years. These ven-
lures have melted British emulation, and q
fourth Trans continental Railway, runningnOrt
of the Great Lakes and connecting the Can
adas with British Columbia, will soon be
under contract. We predict that the Mineral
wealth disclosed or developed by this road
will largely overpay its cost.
For years the construction of still another
TRANSIT Continental line has been agitated 1t
is known as the "35th parallel" because its
general course will be along that parallel of
north latitude. and thus nearly equi-distant
from the Union-C Central on the north and the
Southern or Texas Pacific on the south. We
presume Little Rock, tho capital of Arkansas,
to be the point at which it will gather
into itself radius of eastern or At
lantic roads, thence passing up tho
valley Of the Arkansas to the mouth
of the Canadian, thence up the Canadian to
its northward bend in New-Mexico, leaving
Santa F6 little to the north and crossing the
Rio Grande near Albuquerque. leaving New
Mexico not far from the head of the Colorado
Chiquito, and passing north of Prescott, cross

pRUSSJA AND ITALY.

What the late tondresse implied by the visit
of Prince Frederick Charles to Victor
Emanuel may amount to, is yet matter for
irritated alteration in both Austria and
France. The Augsburg AAgemeine Zeitun9
aflirms that if no definite treaty has yet been
entered into between Prussia and Italy, the
Italians have every right to regard such an
alliance as an established fact of the imme-
diate future, as the Prussan deputies present
in Rome gave them so to understand The
advantages of such an alliance for Italy,
suggests the Zeitun0, consist not only in the
protection which Prussia will afford to her, but
that in case of renewal Of the war between
Prussia and France Tin which Italy would Of
course join), her share of the spOils would
be Nice and Savoy. The proposal is made
in much the same grandloquent tone with
which the cock of the barn-yard would prom
se to q young hedgling a bit of the pickings
and stealings in case of successful foray.
The remainder of the advice is given, however,
with cynical remembrance of the Italian habit
of double-dealing. even if the Prussian
earns were threatened with defeat by France"
sarcastically adds the counselor, Italy could
"stl procure the restoration of her two ceded
provinces as pay IOr ner Wcu-tiineu retne-
"ment from the struggle"
Her assistance in a war with Austria would
be equally remunerative besides (Which, it is
limited, however, is a matter of slight weight
Austria is her natural enemy if France be her
friend. The Fyench journals deny that any
alliance lhas taken place, or that anything
more is meant by the demonstration than
shrewd feint of Prince Bismarck's to alarm the
Ultramontanes. In any case, is certain that
such an alliance would be but for set time
and the accomplishment of given pur-
pose to be dissolved at the first touch of
expediency. A bond between the Catholic
Italian and the Prussian, most protesting OF
Protestants, can be but the sheerest marriage
dc oonuenance. How little cordial zeal goes to
the matter may be gauged by the sneers which
the Germans take no pains to hide even while
Offering the right hand of fellowship to their
weaker neighbOrs.

THE ENGLISH MISTAKE.


The indications increase in Washington that
the Treaty is lost We have said this was
probable ever since the escapade of Mr. Glad
stone in the House Of Commons, in which he
shut the door upon any possible arrangement
of the differences between us by an imputa-
ton upon tho honesty of the American Gov
ernment. This utterance of the British Premier,
although made in the heat of debate and
under the stimulus of attack from q strong
and sagaciOus adversary, was of course official,
and bound the British Ministry to the
views then expressed 1t became from that
moment impossible for the arbitration to go
on, except in one of two or three contingent
cies; either the English Government must re-
treat from position assumed in the eyes of
the world, or our Government must make an
humble confession of their own incapacity and
carelessness by withdrawing their Case; or, in
case Great Britain should repudiate the Treaty
and withdraw from Geneva, the Board must
agree with us that this withdrawal does not
affect our rights under the Treaty. Each one
of these contingencies. was hedged about with
formidable difficulties.
The English Government has not appeared
seriously disposed to change its position.
With that ignorance of American thought and
feeling which has so often proved disastrous
to English statesmen, the Government of Mr.
Gladstone have seemed continually to indulge
the hope that the dead lock would be broken
by our surrender. The reticence Of the Min
istry, since the unfortunate outbreak
with which they answered the first pro-
voking attacks of MI. Disraeli and

There are several things about beer in the news
papers lately. The towns in Massachusetts, have
been voting on the sale of the fluid and the net re-
suit seems to be that some of them are for beer
shops, and some of them not. But the greatest
beer item comes from Albany, where on Tuesday
night, in the brewery of Coolidge, Pratt & Co., the
supports gave way of tun containing from 400 to
500 barrels of boiling beer. Down poured the
malt cataract, never to be drank by the thirsty
earth. The tun, also. was a complete wreck; and
great was the fright of the whole neighborhood at
the crash.

The venerable Archdeacon Jones, lately, in INSTALL

these officers good sound lecture upon their duties
in taking care of tho sacred edi6ce and providing
for it sufficient furniture. Among the necessary
articles too frequently forgotten or scantily pro-
videdn said the Archdeacon, II would mention
kneeling hassocks. We should measure our churches
not by sttings but by kneeings. and in going about
the diocese see q great many churches not pro-
yided with kneelers or hassocks" We really do not
SEQ what need the church has of the latter without

Although the Burchard- -Finkelnburg Tariff
bill was killed in the House, on Tuesday, that
defeat did not end Tariff revision for this
session. Mr.. Dawes vindicated his title to the
leadership of the House by sEllfully combin-
ing. his forces and capturing those of Mr..
Kelley, and then securing the whole field.
Mr.. Kelley had succeeded in striking off
the enacting clause of the nondescEipt
bill of Messrs. Burchard and Finkelnburg,
while the House was in Committee Of the
Whole. This being reported to the House,
Mr.. Kelley moved to have the headless bill
sent back to the Ways and Means Committee
with instructions to report back his
own in its place. Before the previous ques-
ton was moved, Mr.. Dawes rallying his forces,
moved that his bill be reported back as
substitute for that which had just
been killed. This was done in trice, and
bill substantially corresponding to that passed
by the Senate, few weeks since,
was at once before the House. This
bill, which proposes notifications of the
tariff less sweeping than that of the Free
Traders, and lower in tariff rates generally
than Mr.. Kelley's, was discussed in the House,
yesterday. Nothing to indicate final action
was done, however.

1t is to be hoped that the dreadful inunda-

Just reached us. will for long time remain
the last of series of great disasters. Be-
ginning with the earthquakes in the Philip
pines, terrestrial and meteorological disturb
ances, fire, food, and pcstilence, have belted
the globe with terror and death. One benef-
cent effect of these losses of life and ruin OF
property has been to knit mankind closer In
the ties of universal brotherhood. 1t is as nat
ural now to think of sending aid to the half
drowned people of Vellore, Madras, as it once
would have been to reach out helping hand

Considerable surprise will be felt at the re-
fusal of Gov. Hoffman to approve the bill
relating to Courts of Oyer and Terminer.
This bill provided for an assignment by the
Court of Appeals of Justices from other dis
tricts to Courts of Oyer and Terminer, in
which might be pending cases Of official mis-
conduct, or of peculation and fraud in the
management of the public funds. Charges
against bad men in Office are not likely
to be investigated with even-handed
justice, where, as may often be the case, the
accused has O friend ON the Bench. To meet
these special cases the bill which has just been
vetoed was framed; it would have permitted
the assignment of Judge from another dis
trct to the trial of such cases, when local
causes seemed to point to the impossibility of
fair consideration being otherwise obtained.
1t is to be noted that the principal opposition
to this bill has come from the Tammany side
of the House.
