THE CINCINNATI CHAMBER OF COMMERCE OF
POSED TO THE POSTAL TELEGRAPH.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 9.-The Cincinnati delegates
to the National Board of Trade, in their report
to the Chamber OF Commerce, recommends the
Chamber of Commerce to use whatever influence
it might have with members OF Congress to the
end that the General Government may purchase
the existing lines and manage the whole tele-
graph business of the country.
resolution was offered in opposition to this,
declaring that the Chamber does not commit
itself in favor Of the projected national postal
telegraph. This question, which has been the
subject of many discussions in the Chamber,
came up for final disposition to-day, and the reso-
luton against committing the Chamber in favor
of the postal telegraph was carried by con-
siderab bic majority.

Current Notes.

When one reads about a fatal "street-
fight at the South between editors or poll
ticians, ones horror over the breach of lthe
public peace is almost always moderated by
the reflection that somebody was killed, and
that though possibly ''an estimable citizen in
private life," as the reporters say, the public
was the better of his removal.-NGtiOR.
Advice to Statesmen: The Pacific Mail ill.,
vestigation suggests few observations to
practical statesmen of an observing turn of
mind. Never draw checks. When you hay-
payments to make let 1t be in bills. Never
go to banks, because some banks chase their
customers around town by detectives. Never
send telegraphic dispatches, because they

THE Republican farce in Spain has ended,
and tor the best reason, namely, there was
no strong party in favor of popular govern
ment. The nobility cling to their privileges
and the titles of which, if possible, they are
more fond than our third rate politician is of
the prefix "Hon.' The masses are too igDo
rant, superstitious and degraded to appreciate
or care for freedom. They are the legitimate
product of centuries of the double despotism
of king and priest. A people which never
becomes enthusiastic except at bull fights is
not the one which will ever be inspired by
any such watchwords as liberty and equality.
Four years ago the mother of the newly pro-
claimed King Alfonso, the dissolute Queen
Isabella, was compelled to abdicate the throne
in favor of her son. With surprising unan-
unity, Amadeus, son of King Victor Emanuel
of Italy, was called to the throne of Spain.
A year of the intrigues of the Spanish nobili-
ty disgusted him and he left. Then came the
Republic, which has had several presidents,
ending with Serrano, who, if he did not as
sist in bringing about the new monarchy,very
readily acquiesced in the movement. The
new king is seventeen years of age, and IS a
descendant of the first Bourbon king of
Snain.

If Mr.. Hamlin's champions will consult
the Congressional Globe, part 2, Sd session,
42d Congress, page SIT, they will find that
Mr. Lynch declared on the information of
the Secretary of the Navy, that the offices of
receiver and inspector of stores and clerk OF
accounts and bills were not needed and per-
formed no services, and on the motion of that
gentleman, the appropriations for the salaries
of the first of these officers were struck out
of the bill, and the positions practically abol-
ished, saving $21 900 in the various navy
yards. If the same parties will consult pages
1886 and 1887 of the same volume, they will
find Senator Hamlin offering an amendment
to the House appropriation bill to retain both
these offices, and making determined and
elaborate defeece of his amendment, when
Senator Edmunds declared that the offices
were nothing but sinecures. Meantime Sec
retary Robson had so far modified his views
as to go privately to senators and express the
opinion that the officers were necessary to
the efficiency of the navy yards! In the Sen
ate Mr. Hamln's amendment to insert in the
Kittery civil list, ''store clerk $500, clerk of
accounts $780," was considered test ques-
ton on the restoration of the same sinecures
in the other navy yards. The amendment
was rejected and so the Senate abolished the
offices. 1t is therefore no fault of Mr.. Ham
Inns that both these sinecures are not now
drawing pay instead OF the one which the Sec
retary of the Navy has established in defiance
of the vote of both branches of Congress. 1t
may be further stated that in no other navy
yard has the Secretary an 'Inspectorship''
or any other Office corresponding to the
snecure position now occupied by DIR. Went
worth. In this case the Secretary told the
commandant that it was done because of
s'infuences difficult to resist"

Mr.. ELLIoTT's report on the condition of
Alaska entirely reiutes the..extravagant state
ments lately made in regard to the potential
agricultural wealth of that territory. He
says there are more acres of better land lying
now as wilderness and jungle in sight, on the
mountain tops of the Aneghanies, from the
car windows of the Pennsylvania railroad,
than can be found in all Alaska. He gives,
however, high estimate of the value Of the
Seal Islands, property which he thinks worth
much more than 100000, and from which
the annual revenue is doubly sufficient for all
expenditures for the proper government of
the whole territory. He advises measures
for the protection of the seal, as the introduc
ton of fire arms and the keen rivalry Of oppo-
sition traders threaten the speedy extermina-
ton of these valuable animals. The mineral
wealth of the territory may develop into some
value, but data are too limited as yet TO per-
NIT of estimates.

THE pamphlet of Mr.. Gladstone on the
Vatican decrees is now said to be bold bid
for the support of the more evangelical and
dissenting bodies in the state-a support
which has been partly withdrawn because of
certain insinuations about the Romish ten
denotes OF the ex.premier. Iti also said that
one object of the pamphlet is to make di-
version in favor of the established church by
directing public attention to the church of
Rome. IL appears to have had the desired
effect, for but little talk of disestablishment
is now heard. The attention of dissenters
has however, been turned to the Presby-
terian establishment in Scotland, and its
days appear to be numbered. The Scotch
dissenters claim tnat the present church es-
tabshment funds will, if fully realized,
amount to 100000 annually. This amount,
they claim, is national property, and they
purpose to apply it to the provision of
sound secular and religious education for the
children of Scotland.

Mr.. FRoUDE, tha historian, has been in

THE annual reports of the commercial
agencies are decidedly encouraging. They
state that though the first half Of the year
1874 was generally Improbable, the second
half was in many lines generally profitable,
and the quantity of goods consumed was a
fair average. The amount saved by economy
during the year is set down at $400, 100000.
The.number Of failures was about the same
as in 1878, though many OF these failures
really belonged to the latter year. The South
ern states have ON the whole done well; in
the West the speculative fever has very much
diminished. A survey of the whole field JUS
titles satisfaction with the status and pros
poets of business for the coming year.
