In Mexico until after; lor ,hen, before the
days of the Pacific telegraph, 1t took months
to send messages where now ii takes only
seconds. In Ignorance, therefore, of the
facts, both parties made bargain which
has proved so much To our advantage MS to
make us, in this rcspec rs well as others,
well nigh the envy of the world. Through
it, from being hardly producer OF gold
and silver at ALL we have become the larg
est producer in the world There have been
well nigh Il thousand million dollars worth
of these metals exported by way of what
was then the little village of San Francisco
alone. The amounts sent from'other places
have been very large; aud now, also, the
exports of ether merchandise, aud espe-
cally of agricultural products, from these
regions, are rapidly coming to take rank
with those Of gold and silver.
1t is not easy to foretell the development
which the next quarter of century may
witness in this tier of States. Not all of
them are comprised within the territory
coded by Mexico, but the future history of
all must be closely interviewer; and this
history in respect TO the whole must be-
come vastly different from what ii would
have been had California remained MeXi-
can, or become English or French or, af
ter an allegiance to either OF these Powers,
tough, out an independence of its own.
California is set down as containing l5s,9S7
square miles Oregon, 9j,24S; Washington,
G990i; Nevada, 10000; Arizona, 10000 !;
New Mexico, 12l ,291 Utah, $1,000; Colo
RADIO, l0i 500; Idaho, los, 600; Montana 49,
600, and Alaska j7O,OOO-a total of l,Gs3,93O
square miles; or twice rs much as Europe
Except Russia co mbned. A far less Eu-
ropean territory contains more than hum
dred and fifty millions of inhabitants. Ev
cry capacity of this $ rs great; its resource
es of useful metals far greater. Til c past
| twenty-five years has been only laying the
foundation of the Misunderstanding i'm
migrants to the oountry-preparing in part
its means of comm unication, and tenchin
how varied and abundant are the other re-
sources whore men had come mainly TO
| seek gtl d and silver. The turning of pub
lie attention from mining, as the almost OK
elusive business of the country, to other
ore important and varied industries,
must mark bright era in all this region.
The march of commerce is worthy OF
special note. Twenty-Five years ago San
Francisco had hardly n ship once year in
| in her bay. Now she has six large mai
steam hips in the China trade, eight in the
Pacific Mail Service to Panama, twenty
regularly engaged on the coast and running
to the Pacific Islands and Australia, be-
sides hundreds OF ships and steam vessels
plying in different branches of her trade
and on the island waters. Aud nowhere
perhaps, is the di sposition more urgent &c

orr P.gCIFIC ST.rTES.

In thinking of the resources and prom
Use of our Pacific Slrtes, il is interesting to
remember how narrowly they missed, at
two or three points, a widely different his
tory. To go back no farther than about
thirty years, in 1871 France had her eye on
this territory, and sent deputation to
make thorough exploration, preparatory
tn an effort TO acquire it. Had she surmis-
ed the wealth Of the possession, which was
developed within decade thereafter, she
would probably have been both more Sc
cret and more rapid in her movements,
As il was, our Government became aware
the presence of a squadron Of five vessels of
war, which remained long at San Francis
co to watch the motions of the French.
A few years later, when, in the progress
of our war with Mexico, the American
squadron took possession Of Monterey, an
English fleet made its appearance only one
day later, and its commander subsequent
ly confessed to Commodore Sloat that he
had orders himself to take possession OF
the region in the name of his Government.
There were not wanting plausible pretexts
in those days for both England and France
to adopt such a course as this. Had either
Of them done 1t, no one can tell to what
complications the action would have led.
Certainly it would not have been so easy
for us to round out our boundary on the
Pacific as we alterward found II. SO, too,
had the world known what California con
tanned at the time Of our subsequent treaty
with Mexico, the conditions of that treaty
would probably not have been drawn as
they were, They might have been differ
ent in territory coded. Mexico must have
been most unwilling to give up such prov
inces, and her European creditors, backed
by their Governments, would have been
unwilling TO have her But the famous
discovery of gold in the race-way of the
Suffer mill, though made month and a
half before the signing of the treaty, was
not known either in the Eastern States OF
