Cheap TRANSFORMATION.

Mr.. r. Fl. Ferguson, of Troy, n. Y,
in a letter to S. NJ. Smith, of Kawaunee,
ILL.,, thus tells what he proposes to do:
I am engaged in forming a National
Association of Producers and Consum-
ers," to meet in New York as o as I
can get enough interested in it to make
it a success, and [ wish to have the State
of Illinois fully represented, and hope
you will send US q large delegation also.
[ would thank you to invite all bodies
in Iowa, Wisconsin, Missouri, and
wherever there is an organization having
this subject of cheap transportation"
at heart, 1 want them to be present, as
many as possible. Come one and all.
I have said that a bushel of corr can be
carried from the Mississippi river to
Boston or New York for SIX cents per
bushel, and when the National Associa-
ton meets I intend to lay a plan before
that body, showing how we can accom-
plish that object carrying for six cents
per busheD in three to five years time,
or perhaps less. This I will accomplish,
and [ look to the West for aid in that
effort. Please notify all the Western or
CARNATIONS that you know of in your
State, and others, of my wish, and have
them communicate with me, with names
and addresses, that I may publish them
IN my call. Hoping to hear from you
soon, am truly yours for "equal and
exact justice to all and free railroads for
transportation"

Spain-The Military Situation.

Affairs are not altogether cheerful in
Spain. The Carlists have captured
Eerga, have treated it after the manner
invented by the Partisan Commune, sat
urated the public buildings with kero-
sene, and applied the match. The burn
ing has created great excitement in Bar
celona, which lies some ~fifty-one miles
to the south-southeast, and the popu-
lace, heretofore inclining more to the
cause of the Carlists than that of the
Republic, are now almost in a state of
riot, and threaten bloody vengeance
upon the priests, who are charged with
melting the destruction of Berga.
Too great an idea, however, must not
be formed of the Carlist successes. Cat
alonia is the extreme northeast province
of Spain, touching the Pyrenees on the
north and the Mediterranean on the east.
1t will thus be seen that Don Carlos has
but barely effected an entrance into the
Spanish dominion, and that in a portion
of country more than all others likely to
oppose the Republic. His forces
are still over three hundred miles from
Madrid, and have not yet even secured
Barcelona-the military key to Gaia
lonia. '"
About Barcelona Will lie the next bat
tie, if the Carlists determine to push on
for Madrid. The city is surrounded by
walls, and has a citadel of considerable
length. 1t is, however, completely
commanded by the fort of Montjoi to
the south, and the fight for possession
will concentrate on the height of that
name.
Elsewhere the Republic is quietly ac-
cepted, save only at Malaga, the most
southern province but one on the Medi-
terranean. In the capital city the citi-
zens have risen, and refused admission
to the Government officers, while still
preserving order and avoiding any ALI
ance with the Carlists.
On the whole, the Republic is getting
along as well as could be expected,
and stands in no danger, provided
it is let alone by the other European
powers.

AMONG the sensible and practical reso-
lutions adopted by the anti-monopoly
convention at Springfield was the fol-
lowing
"WHERgAs, Railroads, including their roll
ing stock and tracks, are not assisted more
than one-tenth of their actual value.
"Resoleed, That we demand that they pay
taxes in proportion to the taxes paid by citi-
zens of the State, and that if any amendment
is necessary to the revenue, and to compel
said railroads to pay said share of taxes, that
the Legislature so amend said law, and de-
mand of the next State Board of Equalization
to assess the railroad property in proportion to
it's value
Mr.. Superintendent Harris told the
railroad Committeeman at Springfield
that the cost of the c., B. and @. road
was not less than $48, 900 per mile. If
this be the sum per mile upon which Mr..
Harris deems it necessary to levy taxes
upon the people, then this is the sum
per mile upon which the property of
that company should pay taxes. It is a
significant and ~disgraceful commentary
upon Mr.. Harris statement that the
valuation of the road for taxation is
often less than nine thousand dollars q
mile Here is a method of stealing
which can be easily stopped, and must
be stopped. Railroad companies must
not appraise their property at one value
for taxing the people and at a lower
value for paying taxes themselves

VIC print this morning a letter from Yokoha-
ma, descriptive of the change of Ministry which
occurred in Japan couple of months ago. It
is chiefly interesting because it illustrates tho
marked changes that have boon mado during tho
last few years from tho rigid regime which had
obtained for long centuries before. The inmo-
date occason Of tho Ministerial crisis was tho
war with Corca. Tho anti-foreign party favored
the establishment Of MI imposing army and
grand 1oot, with the purpose of restoring tho
ancient condition of isolation for the Kingdom.
Dnt the Mikado sided with the foreign party,
though they were in tho minority. anl, after
removing the Ministers who wero opposed to
him, filled their places from among tho members
Of the japan Embassy, who have been travelling
among the principal countries Of the world
during lato years. aud who aro essentially pro-
grosaive in all their iaons of government aud

A morning newspaper OF this city gravoly ad-
vocatoH. In ono article, a proposition to abolish
the churches, and in another article in the samo
issue proposes to re-establish tie doctrine Of
hell. There nre somo reasons why this neWe-
paper should be anxious to have churches abol-
iahod. In tile frat place, the attendants Of
churches do not patronize this newspaper. In
the second place, the influence Of all churchos,
whether Protestant or Catholic, is preudIcial to
it. In tho third place, leaving out all theolog-
ical or even religious considerations, the dis
coursos preached in churches arc on the
aido Of morality md good order in society,
which this newspaper las generally discouraged.
There aro certain little diflicultioB, however,

that spirituulism ia tho substitute Which this
