The n. Y. Herald's Washington
letterhas the following paragraph,
which is all the more significant as
the Herd1d latterly has been numbered
among the Democratic organs:
/ It adds to the difficulties of the situ-
alton that the Democrats have not
since the session opened won conf
dence. and are further than they were
three months ago from being able to
rally to themselves the dissatisfied part
of the Republicans. They have wise
and capable men in both houses but
it is felt here that they have lost good
opportunities in the country, especially
in the Senatorial elections. There is
a feeling that they do not want re-
cruits. They have made the same
blunder of which Henry Wilson ac-
ctlses His ExeelIency the President.
They have refused to take the best
men wherever they could find them.
tsNothing draws us to the Democrats, -
said very able Republican in conver-
sation to-day in the House. Il. for
my part. abhor the measures which
are proposed but what can do.
could pick out five Democrats and five
Republicans in the House now, who.
coming together. could and would
agree upon policy that would re-
store the country at once to pence and
prosperity. It is so easy task, and
yet it is impossible. because party feel
ing reigns. and moderate counsels have
no chance of a hearing or of influence. :"

USING STAMPED ENvELoPEs.-A
Government circular, touching upon
the use Of stamped envelopes, after
mentioning number of the great
advantages over the more common
practice of buying envelopes and
stamps separately, concludes with
the following paragraph which IS,
no doubt, news to many and graft

that a stamped envelope, spoiled in

THE CANAL SURVEY,
Arrival of the St. Croix and
Lake Superior Canal Sur
veying Party, on
Tuesday.
Good News for Superior Kettle
River-Nemadji Route found to be
the Most Practicable of the
three Proposed Routes.

Last winter the Legislature of
Minnesota made an appropriation
and passed an act authorizing the
preliminary survey of canal to
connect the waters of the St. Croix
with those of Lake Superior. I'm
der this act a commission was
formed, consisting of Hon. L. X
Slannard, of Taylor's Falls, r. r..
Davis, of saltwater, and a. w.
W ard, of Wacca. The act auth or
lied the ex mination of three routes:
one by the way Of the Nemak agon
to its head, from thence to the
head of White River, and down that
stream to Ashland Bay by the Ka-
kagon; the second by the main St.
Croix and Brule River to the Lake,
and the third by way of Kettle
River and the Nemadji to Superior
Bay.
The commission organized on the
16th day of April, and party un-
der charge of Commissioner r.. r.
Davis, consisting of Joseph CARL,
+. l.. McKusick, Wyman X. Fol
som and Joseph McKinnon, started
on the Goth day of May, and pro
ceeded to examine the Nemakagon
route, starting at Big Rock Rapids,
six miles above Taylor's Falls, and
arriving at Ashland, the terminus of
that route, on the 26th of July.
having been out thirty-fve days.
From Ashland the party pro-
ceedcd to examine the BruIe route.
after which examination, their num-
Der having been increased by the
acquisition of Mr.. Stannard, they
proceeded to examine the proposei
route through to this place, ascend
ing from the St. Crnix up the Kettle
River as far as Moose Lake, from
thence portaging across to the
Blackhoof River, decending that
stream to the Nemadji, and from
thence down the Nemadji to Supe-
rior Bay, finding deep water all the
way, and arriving here Tuesday
afternoon, August 10th, ''camping
out" in the old Avery House over
night and Wednesday morning pro-
ceeding to Duluth to take the cars
for home.
Being absent from home Tuesday
afternoon and evening, we did not
have the pleasure of interviewing
any of the gentlemen except the
Hon. Mr.. Stannard, of Taylor's
Falls, fortunately meeting him for
few minutes Wednesday morning,
just before his departure; hence, we
are unable to give as detailed an
account of their surveys as we
could wish, though that is matter
of secondary Importance, as we OBJ
tanned information on the only real
point OF interest to our people, any
way, viz: as to which of the three
proposed routes is the most practl-
cable, Mr.. Stannard stating to us,
IN reply to query of ours to that
effect, that though he did not care
to forestall their report, still he had
no hesitancy in saying that the last
named route, in his opinion, is de-
cidedly the most feasible This,
we understand, is the opinion of the
rest of the party, their objections
to the hrst-named route being its
great distance and lack of water.
and to the second named the
Brule River route-its rapids and
the lack of a harbor at its terminus,
while the advantages OF the last
named route are, that it is the
shortest aud easiest, and has the mos;
abundant supply of water.

DOES IT MEAN WARP

The message of President Grant to Con
gress yesterday smacks very much of war.
by the telegraph we learn that he has been
suddenly aroused to the necessity Of a heavier
armament on our sea coast Notifications, and
Tor the first time in the history of this country,
suggestions from the President are offered
relative to the style Of ordnance necessary
Tor the better protection of our seaboard.
1t is, perhaps a little uncertain whether
this message is not subterfuge to draw pub
lie attention away from the Louisiana i'm
broglio, that the mistakes already committed
may be covered up. But be this as it may, it
is very significant at this time, and will doubt
less cause as was possibly intended, a diver
sion of public attention from internecine
matters
When this message is coupled with the
various rumors reported to have been afoat
in Washington, relative to an aggressive move
ment in the Cuban matters, it ought perhaps
to receive more weight than we are inclined
now to give it; nevertheless, the document is
one somewhat remarkable just at this juno
ture, and may be taken as an indication which
way the Administration wind is blowing.
We cannot but think there is something of
double game being played in this matter.
The hardness exhibited in the vindication of
'ur national honor in the yirginius affair has
naturally created doubts as to the existence
N the part OF our Government of any desire
o secure redress from Spain for that gross
INSULT to our flag, and this seeming exhibit
ion of deferred energy at once raises the
uspicion that there are other and deeper
lotives at work.
This may or may not be true, but with the
experience Of the past actions of the Admins
alton before us, certainly this unlocked for 9
anlfesto is fraught with deep significance Z
1t apparent now. What the powers that be u
can by this sudden departure from course p
almost childish submission, is puzzle n
1t easily solved. Probably few days will q

ART IN DRESS.

One of the most celebrated French art cri
les, Mr.. Charles Blanc, has just published
highly interesting book with the above title
One of the chapters is devoted to the subjec
of the adaptation of the various colors to pei
sonal adornment
Mr.. Blanc remarks that nature leads us t,
certain conclusions upon this subject l
seldom happens that the complexion of me,
or women fails to correspond with the color o
the hair. The brunette has warm, nut
brown or olive complexion /; that of the blonde
IS fair, roseate, almost transparent. Red hail
IS generally combined with milk-white skin
and maroon eyes. Thus each temperament
has its inchoate or fully realized harmony.
The business of the artist in dress is to
develop this harmony by supplying what is
weak or absolutely wanting, and by toning
down what is too strongly marked by adapting
to each particular complexion the most betit-
ting colors
Among these, there are some like the black
pearl gray, light gray and several tints of the
buff or maroon colors, which are becoming to
every one, because they are warm in the shade
and cold in the light
Let not our lady readers fancy that every
description of black will answer blonde
should wear deep, velvety black-a brunette
should give the preference to shininq black
stuffs like satin or silk.
Another well-known principle is that vel
low and red are becoming to brunettes, while
blue is the favorite color for blondes: but
this, although true as general principle,
must be more or less modified in accordance |
with the requirements of each individual |
case. For deep ta,oay complexion, for
Instance, nothing but the most vivid yellow
u red will answer. A flaming crocus or a
'iood-red camelia set in jet black hair gives
much expression to that particular COM
lexlon. Softer colors, such as clear blue.

TIE IMPEACHMENT OF GRANT.

Although there is no doubt that the Radi
Gals, who constitute two-thirds of the present
Congress, would vote it down, it is neverthe-
less the duty of the Conservative minority to
propose the impeachment of the present
Executive for his high>handed assumption Of
powers not granted to him by the Constitu-
ton, and his military interference with the
legally elected and organized Louisiana House
Of Representatives.
The members Of Congress who hold that in
so doing the President has committed one of
those "high crimes and misdemeanors, on
for and conviction of which
the Constitution says "the President Vice
President and all civil officers of the United
States shall be removed from Office" must re-
coglze the mandatory character Of that arti- s!
Gle, and it is their duty to endeavor to carry
it out by preparing articles of impeachment
against the usurping and Undertaking chief
,ivil officer Of the nation
The proposition would certainly be voted
Town by the present House, but this will not
prevent the recently elected Representatives
Who shall assemble next December from re-
lewing it and bringing the culprit before the
iadical Senate, which may acquit him, and
be American people. who most assuredly will
