A process by which the heat In the

amount of power now obtained by the
consumption Of fuel doubled, has been
discovered. When two establishments

taken to heat the boiler of the other. and no

Canon Moseley arrives at conci usior in

also If glacier were to exceed this in

aTHE FHDERALrsT. \

This is the title ola paper just
started at New York, TO advocate
the centralizing policy Of this Ad-
ministration. The number before
us favors the assumption Of control
by the Washinton Government, Of
railroads, canals and all other pub
lic works, telegraphs, insurance, ed
ucation, marriage and divorce, libel
laws, usury laws, and, in fact, al
most everything else.
Our own opinion is that the pee-
pie of New Hampshire can manage
their own affairs better than any
body else ; and Furthermore, we have
no doubt, that it would be found, in
practice, absolutely impossible to
govern this great country, with such
a diversity Of interests, from q sin
gle centre; nevertheless, if we are
to have such a government, it is
desirable that it should be formally
established. We are now living un-
der two systems, which will not work
we'll together. While the States
claim their ancient power, Mr..
Grant exercises a supplemental
power, which is more annoying and
dangerous than it would be if it was
formally acknowledged.
This question must be met soo,.,
and considered upon its merits
We shall accept no clandestine
change in the form Of our govern
ment. We shall recognize no CEN
trail absolutisn until it shall be form
ally inaugurated, as this aFederal-
ist" proposes. Manchester IN H.)

WATER COMMUNICATION BE.
TWEEN WEST AND SOUTH.

The Senate's Committee on "Wat-
er Communication" Of which Hon.
William Window Of Minnesota, is
Chairman, are expected to meet in
Atlanta sometime this spring, and
no doubt will go over the ground Of
the proposed "Great Western and
Atlantic Canal" and 1t Is hoped
that the Committee may be prevailed
on to visit Savannah. Would ii not
be well, in view Of the great impor>
lance Of this matter to Savannah,
for our City Council and Chamber Of
Commerce to take some steps to-
wards securing their visit here, by
extending an invitation to the Com
mittee through its Chairman We
should regard such q visit as more
important than the Presidential Pro-
gress, talked Of but short time
since, but now Indefinitely post
pened. The President has shown
himself favorable to these schemes
Of water COMMUNICATION and his
cooperation and influence will do
much toput some ofthem through.

PROGRESS IN MANUFACTURES.

Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Mis-
souri,, Minnesota aud all the thrifty
States Of the great West, though
their chief wealth is agricultural, are
yet highly prosperous, and waxing
richer every day in manufactures, -
Nothing more forcibly exhibits their
rapidly Of growth in population and
all that makes up civilized communi-
ties than the astounding leaps which
those States have taken in the manu-
featuring line in the past ten years.
Iowa mounts up from $l4, 900, 900 to
SAC, 100000; Michigan from $780,
.00G,000 to $ll6, 100000; Minnesota
from 100000 to S23,000,000 !;
Illinois from $57,000,000 to $685.
100000; Missouri from $4l, 900, 900
to $206, 100000, These illustrations
are taken at random from the tables.
The entire West as we'll as the
North--tells but the same story of
enormous gains in the value of manu-
featured products in the past decade.
For in the tables for 1850 and 1860
the statistics for mining, querrying
and fishing are included, whereas
they do not appear in those for 1870.
With this explanation the gains we
have pointed out become still more
astonishing. Under fully restored
union and fraternity, and reformed
government, wise, just and economi-
cal, who can forecast the wonderful
future of prosperity in store for the
United States. IN. Y, Journal OF

Georgia is the only Southern State
which has doubled the value of its

The ILLINOIS FREIGHT Law In
eoNsTITUTIoNAL.---There has just
been rendered decision from the
Supreme Conrt Of Illinois, which is
likely to stimulate the excitement in
the West on ths transportation ques-
ton. IT he's reversed the celebrated
decision Of Judge Upton, Of Me-
Lean county, affirming the constisu-
tionality Of the State law prohibiting
railroad companies from charging
discriminating toll rates, and sus>
tains the appeal Of the Chicago and
Alton Railroad Company against it.
In the case ID question II was charged
that the company, contrary to the
provisions Of the law, charged S. 60
per thousand feet for transporting
lumber from Chicago to Covington,
distance Of Ito miles, while from
Chicago to Bloomington, distance
Of 1876 miles, it charged only So per
thousand feet. The railroad com
pany raised the points in defense, in
the first place, that the charter Of the
company gave it the right to regulate
the rates Of transportation, and that
the legislation interfering with this
right was illegal. It also maintained
that the So so rate from Chicago to
Lexington was reasonable and not
excessive, and that the So rate for
the lower distance to Bloomington
was too low, but was rendered nee
essary by competition. The Circuit
/ Court ruled that the Legislature had
the right to regulate freight charges,
but the Supreme Court Of tho State,
on appeal, has reversed the judg-
/ ment Of the lower court. The Su-
preme Court, however, recognizes
| the authority Of the State LegisIa-
,urc to prevent undue discrimination
| in railroad freight charges, but holds
that in this case the Legislature has
| forbidden all discrimination, and
provided for the forfeiture Of the
charter without giving the company
an opportunity of sustaining It's posi-
ton The act of the Legislature was
therefore declared 10 be void, and
contrary to the spirit and intent Of
the Constitution

THE FOLLY OF OUR PEOPLE.

The following remarks Of the Sa.
vannah News are applicable to Other
places as well as Savannah:
I We have within the past year de,
precated ON several occasions tht
habit many of our people indulge ii
| Of sending to Northern cities worl
4 which can be as easily and as wei
done in this city, and at about til,
same cost. We notice that ia alrnos
every walk OF life, merchants senc

books, when the same can be obtain
ed in their own city at bat trifling
additional cost, in many cases mono
at all, and the work in every reapect
is equally as good. Individuals
send for their wearing apparel when
we have in our midst competent tall
ors, well-stocked clothing establish
ments, who are deserving ofour pat-
rouage and encouragement. We
have even heard that some Of our
citizens have boosted Of the fact that
they never buy anything in Savan-
nah-purchase their family grocer
les, clothing, furniture, etc, in truth,
everything they need in New York
or other Northern cities. And yet
these very citizens have made all
they enjoy in this very city.
Is this right !? Is it wise to thus
send abroad the money which could
be circulated with 50 much benefit
in our own city z Have our property
owners any just right to complain
that their fine stores on the principal
