WASHINGTON will lay many more miles OF
wooden pavement in the coming spring, for it
appears this kind of street covering has given
the greatest satisfaction there, and they have
tried almost every style OF invention. We all
remember what Pennsylvania avenue was but
year or two since-nothing more than long
broad miles Of mud or dust, as the weather hap,
pened; yet to-day 1t is one of the handsomest
therOhghfares in the country, and is every after
noon throDged with hundreds OF magnificent
carriages. 1t is not alone on this main street
that the improvements have been pushed. They
extend to every quarter OF the city; and so
greatly do they impress visitors, that the signs
indicate that to have winter home in Washing
ton 10 soon to become the fashion among our
rich people. 1t is astounding, indeed to see that
those who have brought about these wonders
are nDw being investigated for squandering the
peoples money. The average American takes
so kindly to investigations, which are mainly
expensive farces, that he will have them for
everything and nsthing, and would prefer that
the national business OF Congress should be de-
layed for DAYS and weeks rather than that he
should lose his pieasure.-PAiid. Press

A special dispatch from London to the New
York World says" Chief Justice COckburn
has officially counseled the Cabinet that Eng
land must recede Immediately from the Treaty
OF Washington, leaving America to decide be-
tween new treaty or war. The council is now
discussing the terms in which this resolution
shall appear in the Queens speech at the open
ing of Parliament"
The London Times of Saturday declares that
England must Immediately give notice to the
Geneva Board OF Arbitration and to the Ameri-
can government, if such action has not already
been taken, that if the American case is re-
formed the arbitration may be happily con-
cluded. The Daily Telegraph reports that nego-
nations to that effect have been opened between
England and America, and the British repre-
sensations are not received in friendly man
ner.
The Observer says the British government has
sent dispatch to Washington withdrawing
from its agreement to submit the Alabama
claims to arbitration before the Geneva board
if the liability of England for direct damages
remains an open question. The Observer adds
that the dispatch is cOuched in friendly terms,
and gives expression to an earnest desire OH the
part OF her Majesty's government to carry out
all the provisions OF the Treaty Of Washington.

Mr.. CoLFAx AND THE VrcE-PRRsIpRScY.
IL is understood that the following from the
Washington correspondence u the Cincinnati
Gdsefte represents accurately the position OF Mr.,
COlfax, as well as to his relations to other can
ddates for Vice-Presdent as t01ards General
Grant:
1.-The paragraphs floating around representing
that bitter contest Is in progress between the
friends OF Mr.. Colfax and Senator Wilson, do
injustice 10 both th0eo' Gentlemen. The Vice.
President has carefully RETAINED from even the
appearance Of taking part In any controversy
over the matter, and his relations are entirely
cordial with Mr.. Wilson sRd his friends, and
il he were nominated Mr. Cofax would give
him his warm support The position Of the Vice
President upon the question of denomination 10
actiy thisr He did fully expect his Official life
to close with the present term, and his letter
nouncing that was written in entirely good faith.
Cpon his return to Washington, at the opening
OF this session, many republicans from the south
and east went to him and insisted that he should
agree that IL his name we're again presented at
the next convention he should not object to its
use, and that u was deemed important BY prom I.
fnent men in the party that there should be no
change in the old ticket. To many such appeals
Mr.. Colfax finally replied that he was first for
the denomination OF Gen. Grant, Knowing a.
he did how faithful and patriotic his adminisrra
ton had been. As for himself, he could NOT ask
y re- nomination, or use any effort to obtain it.
nor antagonze any of those who were Suggested
for IL, hut IL IL was thought best to renominate
the old ticket il would be political duty not to
decline.o

Our UNoccUPIED DoMAIN.-Few peo-
pie really realize how many acres are
unoccupied in the great West. There
are eleven territories, two or three of
which are twice or three times as large
as all New England and it is small
territory that is not at least ten times
as large as Massachusetts. Colorado is
thirteen times as large as Massachusetts,
while Dakota and Arizona are half as
large again as Colorado The eleven
territories contain over one billion and a
quarter acres, exceeding by nearly two
hundred thousand square miles the ag-
gregate territory of all the present adj
mitted States of the Union. The terri.
tory of Alaska contains 359, 529,6 SOC

The BEST WAY TO ADvERTIsE.-The
best and cheapest mode of advertising in
the world is that in the newspapers. Ev-
cry successful advertiser will say this.
Seed strewn there-if the seed is good
for anything always brings up crop
of some value most generally hundred
fold. Placarding the dead-walls, and
showering handbills among the people,
are auxiliaries in advertising but it is
doubtful whether, as a rule, they more
than pay the expense, while there is no
doubt that they are a nuisance. The
blankest of dead-walls is only disfgured
by posters, provoking in the well-regu-
lated mind a sense of aversion to the
man who SO advertises, and the articles
upon whose excellences he expatiates
while as to handbills, nothing so preju-
dices a citizen against going to see any
show, or buying any goods, as the ugly
slips of paper thrust at him from al
quarters, eloquently recommending hin
to do those things-Jommal of Com
naerce.
