HOW RRAsnNARLR.

New York and Chicago both declined
to appoint delegates to the Southern Pa
cifo railroad convention at St. Louis On
the ground that the times are too hard
for the government to assume any new
obligations. That great failure and mo-
nopoly, the Union Pacific railroad, which
answer their purposes, no doubt mate
rally assisted the people of those two
highly economical cities to come to that
conclusion. The time Once was when
they not only united in asking the gov
ernment to guarantee the bonds Of that
line, but to issue government bonds in
its behalf. And more recently they
favored Jay Cookies Northern Pacific
'isothermal" railroad, the greatest fraud
of all, to which millions of acres Of the
public domain we're donated. The sane
timonions economy Of Chicago and New
York reminds us Of an old woman up in
East Tennessee. She was very poor n
never owned a coffee-mill until her
youngest child came Of age. About this
time prosperity dawned and with it came
a ~cofee-mill, whereupon she invited in
all of her neighbors Of whom she had
been borrowing coffee-mills for forty
years, and, With great pride and impor-
lance Of manner, exhibited to them the
new article Of furniture. AS they started
&C go she took the mill iu her hands ten
derby and remarked complacently "Now.
~neighbOrs, | want one thing distinctly
understood, and that is Why j invited you
here: from this time on / will neither
borrow nor lend a cofee-mill."

TIE Cincinnati Commercial having
spoken in a captious and fault-inding
manner OF the St. Louis Convention,
the CourierJ ournal comes back in this
handsome style:
We had hoped to see the Commercial
take a manly and statesmanllke, a gen
erous aud fearless view of this great en-
terprise, so needful to the South and so
~consonant with the interests Of the
country at large. The editor of the
Commercial has shown himself to be a
vigorous and acute prosecuting attorney.
he has yet to show himself capable of
creative work-of work not destructive.
We have to remind him that in the dark
days ofreconstruction we appealed to him
in vain against the thieveSwho infested
the South. He called our pleas rebel
malice and "secesh gush," and never
lifted his hand, either as a prosecutor or
as a destroyer, until the rotten fabric
began to fall. Even then he came up to
the scratch gingerly; and it has hap
pened ever since that, where the real
South has shown itself deeply enlisted,
he has, in his most amisble moments,
observed il scautwise over his shoulder,
substituting his habitual scowlf for a still
more offensive and unworthy sneer. IN
this present matter he is wholly and abb
solutely. wrong; and, as We believe that
his error proceeds from a want of indie
pendence, from downright fear Of speak
ing the truth lest it may seem to conflict
with a specious independence and OBJ
struct the flow of an ideal and vainglo-
rious affectation of consistency, we ven
ture to make an effort to divert him alike
from his p~rejudices and his heedlessness,
and, at the same time, to bring to the
support of a great national enterprise a
journal and a journalist whose utter
anees, no matter how light, have their
weight, and for whose honesty Of purpose
we entertain sincere respect.

II has been the boast of the Republi-
cans that national expenditures we're
being constantly diminished. The an
nual statement Of the national receipts
and expenditures for the fiscal year end
ing June 30 has been published. Let us
Bee where the reduction comes in, as
compared with 1874:
Net expenditures. .S274, 623, 1872 S2S5, MI. 500
LESS interest on debt lO3, U93 ,b45 IN. JIG. Sl5
Expenditures ......... SIN .52s,sT sl7s, 6ls. 1855
Less cost OF the navy 2l,4gI SO D.9S2,5SI
Remainder .......-sl5O,Os2.2 n sl47. $50. s0S
The gross reduction is only $ll,ll5,-
4Os. II we leave opt the interest for
1874, which was largerth than this year, and
the naval expenditures for 1874, which
we're greatly augmented by the Virginius
affair, all the other other expenditure
show in the aggregate an increase Of 81,
345,823 oVer the previous year And
this is Republican retrenehmeut and
economy in a time Of profound peace
and tranquility. The Leading Republic
cans in the last Congress promised q
reduction of S26, COG, 900 in national ex.
penses, which was no mofe'than the PEG.
pie had a right to expect, but instead Of
a reduction we see an increase.

0NE Of the important events in the
worlds history Of to day is the acquisi-
ton by purchase Of the Suez canal by
the English government. England at
one time feared that France would OBJ
tain possession and thus control Egypt
ian affairs and the new route to the
Indies. If Turkey falls at any time
Egypt will drop like a ripe apple into
the hands of the British government
The right Of way across the Isthmus was
granted to a French company, with NJ.
De Lesseps at its head, in 1854, with the
stipulation that the Egyptian govern
ment should receive fifteen per cent. Of
the canal polls. The canal was opened
in November, 1869. The receipts the
first year we're 81. SSe,455. The business
has since increased, and it is considered
a good paying investment. The English
government, however, is looking to an
extension Of power rather than imme.
date dividends on investments.
