Scott and Gould.

It Is said that THOMAS A. SCoTT and JAY
GoULD are respectively taking a very ac-
tive part in the contest for Speaker, and
we incline TO think they are.
GoULp wants the Pacific Mail subsidy
restored, and scorr wants tue bonds of
the Texas Pacific guaranteed.
Gori.p wants to control any future in
vesuSation OF Pacific Mail coIrupiions, and
scolr wants to suppress altogether the
proposed invesii-ationo Of Memphis, FL puso
and Texas Pacific corruptions.
They will both fail. The new Speaker
had better be hung on Il gihhct in chaIhs
than go into that chair ms the servant Of
either 81 these men. Pubic opinion will
not suffer the restoration Of the old sub
say to GOULD, or the grant Of the new one
10 SCoTT. The Investigations will be
iorc' q, and the Speaker who attempts
WITHDRAWING will bring down final ri II
upon Himself ana upon his party. We
must have the whole history of the conli.
ton between SCOTT, Fremont. and GRAY,
resulting in the passage of the original
TrNas Pacific bill. We want the list Of
hnned members furnished by TREMoNr to
SCOTT, under the stipulation to pay them
the hrbes promised by the first purchaser.
Mr.. RICHARD PARSONS and Mr.. JAMES +.
NFGLEY must be heard. The judicial pro-
cecducs Mt Newark, n. j., purportiug To
have taken place at Tyler, Texas, whereby
the Texas Pacific acquired the vast pro p
erty out of which the creditors OF the
Mcmphis-El Pnso were swndled, will in
cNitahlv be rei'Namiued by II learned aud
implitia committeeman in corner. as IL
h alleged these proceedings were had, but
In broad day, ana in full view of the press
aud the people. Incidentally, We may
also ascertain what went with the French
gold in FRrMGNTs hands; whether Mr..
WAsHnrHNE and Mr.. '.uLNcR got any of
il; and above an, how much OF II went into
the corruption fund at Washington.

The Purchase Of the suez canal.

The acquisition by Engl ,nd of the con-
trolling int 1T IN the ~lcl Canal a fact
20 much talked about within the last +, W
days has several interesting, il not pa
tcuarY important, feature. a3out a.. Tic
arraug" ment j, spoken of %, a great troke
OF diplomacy on the part Of Mr. Di~R,ELf
and English writers eau hardly hld
words strong enough 20 praise the genius
OF Old DIzzY.' At the same time they
quite forget how enchanted they form ,rly
were with Lord PAIMERsToS. how great
. diplomutist they cOas idcrci him 10 be,
and how stubhoruly and fooli-hly he op-
posed the construction of tiis very same
canal. The Eleii,h refused TO contrib
ute cent toward it, aud, had ii not
been for the strenuous efforts of y iPoLEoN
Ill, it would probably never have
been called INTO existence. Evcn when
It was about to be opened. some six years
ago, the English Government seemed vely
reluctant to take part in the festivities.
They argued that they dill not want tho
canal, that ii would never work, that il
could not he made TO carry water enough
for large sh ps, and that the Sucz Railway,
already eN sting, ana the Euphratc- Valley
line, then projected, would answer all
English purposes much better than the
canal could. In accordance with these
views, when nearly all the European
croNned heads as .embled at the opening
festivities AT Cairo, England refused to be-
represented even by one of the sous of the
Queen, and only sent two weu-of-wr,,
which went ashore Immediately on their
arrival. Aud now this purchase Of some
en-, 000,0p0 worth Of shares in the canal
forms the highest complim mt that Eul-
land could pay 10 the genius and industry
OF the French, at the same time that IL Is
an indirect, yet nevertheless a highly sig
nincautavowal OF their own political slug
glshuc.s.
ton commercial point OF view the
fact that some hundred and seyent. --ovon
thousand shares have paasrl from the
Kncdvr'- treasury Into the treasury Of
Queen VicToRA Is not likely to have any
important results. II is not improbable
that the canal will be better managed,
aud that the price Of the stock viii 90 up;

A CORRESPONDENT writing from
Neah Bay under date Of April 16,
says: " For the past FIVE days we
have had splendid weather. and
the Indians are making good use
of it, catching fur seals. Some of
them are making $50 per diem.
Good skins are selling to the ira
ders at fourteen dollars each. The
schooner Cygnet, Capt. Kimberly,
has been out several days, also,
the pilot boat Lottie, and report
says they are doing well. There
are, also, the British schooners
Alert and Annie Beck, outside,
catching seals. This business
bids fair TO be an important branch
of industry, and If care is taken
by the white men to use no guns,
I have no doubt but it will last for
Year,, as the seals have increased
very rapidly in this vicinity the
past few years; but fears are en-
tertained that the report Of guns
will drive them off to some more
retired place. The Indians are
much incensed at the white men
for shooting them, and say in
good Chinook, Wake kloshe
mamook poo,' although l have no
doubt if they could hit q seals
eye, as Capt. Kimberly can do,
they would all mamook poo.'
Capt. Kimberly is making the ex-
pertinent and If it proves success
fui there will be quite a feet of
vessels off Cape Flattery next sea-
son. so mote it be- 1t is time
white men were waking up to the
many sources Of wealth which
await them in these waters"

IMPRovEMENTs.--We take pleasure
in noting the progress that is being
made by Mr.. Alexander in connection
with his arrangements for a ship-yard.
Sometime since he purchased lot on
the water front at the west end of tie
town, with the above project in view.
To-day he has building in process OF
completion, and Is laying down his ways
preparatory for the construction and
repair Of vessels. This improvement
Is in compliance with long-felt want
at this point and the enterprise de-
serves encouragement at the hands OF
those interested In maritime affairs.

a card from the proprietor of the
"Red Line" Mr.. Smith, announ-
ces his willingness to supply citi-
zens with water at astonishingly
low prices.
