Seeking Foreign Markets.

1t will not do to undcrvalue the efforts
the St. Louis and New Orleans people
are making 10 open UP direct trade with
the South American ports. More may
come of it than most people not in direct
sympathy with il anticipate. At any
rate, the effort itself is to bc commended,
and we heartily wish it all possible sue
cess. At time when there is a too pre-
valent disposition to sit down and la
ment the dullness of the times and the
general unproiitableness of mercantile
ventures of all descriptions, it is credi-
table to the merchants of the southwest
that they are at least determined to try
and discover new markets in part OF
the world where we have rs yet made
but a faint commercial impression. If
men never try, certainly they will never
know their own powers. With seven
teen feet of water at the mouth Of the
Mississippi, and twenty in the near
future, M guaranteed by Capt. Eads at
the end of the year. the calculation II
that ships of large tonnage will be able
to go and come at all stages of the tide,
without annoying detentions that have
heretofore been experienced. In the
course of a few days, taking advantage
of this circumstance, the new line of
monthly steamers will be under way for
LaguayTa, Port of Spain,
Georgetown, Cayenne, Pernambubo and
Rio de Janeiro. This line. If judiciously
managed, can scarcely fail 10 prove Of
great importance TO western interests,
inasmuch as the consumption of the diff
ferent countries thus brought into direct
close contact consists principally OF -four,
lard, hams, pork, beef, etc. to the
amount of nearly twenty million dol
lars. This trade at present is carried on
by Philadelphia, Baltimore and New
York, chiefly in sailing vessels requiring
twenty TO forty-fve days TO reach the
rear ports, which these New Orleans
steamers expect to do in six to ten days,
and arrive at Rio in twenty eight days.
With the advantage Of close proximity
to the ports between New Orleans and
Cayenne, the projectors of the new line
expect to be able TO compete advan-
for this important trade. No
however, need be enter
tained that the competition, If success
full, is going to curtail commerce with
other ports. Trade makes trade, and
there ought to be room enough ere long
in such new countries ~ South America,
not only for one or two, but n dozen
ventures of the same kind.

The Taxes on Spirits and Tobacco.

1t being generally understood that
there will be no tariff bill passed at this
session of congress, there is a good deal
Of curiosity to know what will be done
about internal revenue matters, espec-
i&lly with regard to tobacco. The sub
committee of the committee of ways
and means, charged with considering the
question of tebacCs tax, has prepared a
favorable report. In that report they
take strong grounds in favor of reducing
the tax from twenty-fOur to sixteen
cents, and Just here is where the trouble
comes that causes all the commOtiOn in
the tobacco trade. 1t may be asserted
most positively that even if the COM
mittee of WAYS and means does indOrse
the report of the subcommittee on this
ques' ion of tobacco tax, and the house
should pass it, the treasury department
will exert its energies against it, and the
probabilities are that the senate will
defeat it by an overwhelming majority.
j. may be certainly stated that by no
possibility can there be a change of the
tobacco tax ut this session of congress.
There will be something done with re-
gard to details of the spirit and tobacco
laws 1t is likely that there will be
some change in the tax on whisky, be-
cause of the accommodating proofs that
he high tax is beyond the revenue point
and has become a premium on fraud.
The large number of distilleries seized
each day and the suspicious held by the
treasury department that there are an
immense number of illicit distilleries in
operation, favor a reduced tax on spirits
Each indication is in the direction OF
the passage of an act making con-
siderable modification in tie internal
revenue laws.

Not the Man for the Crisis.

Mr.. Hayes, though by no means con-
sSicuOus in politics, is not wholly un-
knO yn, and we presume there are few
even of those who know him best and
like him most who do not doubt whether
he is the kind of man for which the crisis
through which we are now passing calls.
The civil-service plank in the platform
though doubtless well meant, has, in its
declaration that senators and representa-
tives should confine themselves to the le-
gitimate duties and refrain from inhu-
encing appointments, ludicrOus resem-
blance to the resolution introduced into
the French national assembly calling on
all rascals to quit France. 1t brings
strikiugly to mind the great fact that to
get rid of the master evil of the govern
ment in our day-that which has already
degraded and Paralyzed it, and threatens
with serious fundamental change5 at no
very remote date-the president must
be man of no ordinary tenacity and
breadth of view, and must be prepared
to sacrifice personal ease and smoothness
of administration, and party harmony
and success, to higher and more impor-
tant things We do not believa, with
our present knowledge, that Mr.. HAYES
is such man. We do not know, for we
have no reason for believing, that he
thinks the condition of the civil service
a serious evil that he would make great
sacrifices to amend it, or that he thinks
anything of more importance to the
country than the supremacy of the re-
publican party, managed substantially as
il now is

TURKISH ATROCITIES.
Details Of OutTaEes Committed Jn RuI-
ERrin by the Turkish Troops.

Details Of Outrages Committed In RuI-
gnrin Sy the Turkish Troops.
The London Daily News publishes a
letter from its COnstantinopie cerrespou-
dent, dated June 10th, giving the details
of atrocities committed in Bulgaria by
the Bashi Bazoaks, Turkish irregular
troops. The writer says that all movable
property has been plundered, houses,
and villages burned, and old men, wO-
men and children Unfortunately
slaughtered. 1t is estimated that the
province, which heretofore yielded to
the government an annual revenue of
four million dollars, will not pay one
quarter that sum this year, nor for years
To come. The various estimates place
the number of lives sacrificed at from
eighteen to thirty thousand The cor
respondent names thirty-seven villages
known to have been DESTROYED. Among
the refugees, the number of whom is
very small, there is not Girl over ten
years of age. In the village Of Serustit-
"a, district of Phillippopolis, fifteen hun
dred persons are known to have been
killed. This village consisted of four
hundred houses and was prosperous and
peaceful. Every house has been burned
and all the inhabitants killed except a
few women and children who took refuge
in PhillippOpolis and some women who
were carried off by Bashi Bazouks. These
cruelties have made great impression
at COnstantinOple and the English am
bassador has interviewed with the govern
ment to put an end to them.

The Slave Trade

Intelligence from west Africa shows
that the suppression Of the slave trade
on the cost by the English is sending
thousands of poor creatures 10 a cruel
and miserable death at the hands OF ne
gro chiefs. These kings, as they are
called without reason, no longer able to
export the slaves they capture in their
raids upon helpless villages and unpro-
tected tribes, kill them as sacrifices in
order to send them 10 their friends IN
the other wOrld--a fetish custom and
horrible result of the doctrine of a future
life among people not much above the
brutes. Last year a new chief came lnts
power in Porto Novo, a town within
twenty miles of British territory, and on
his accession held "custom" OF nine
days duration in honor of four former
kings, during which blood flowed as freely
"A gin and brandy. The slave trade,
compared with the prevalence OF human
sacrifices, was blessing, since IL opened
way for captors to dispose OF their cap
tives tor money, and only 70 persons
highly civilized is death preferable 70
slavery. England has now nothing TO
do but either reopen the slave trade or
crush the petty kings out of existence

The Effect of Rain on the Sea.

The effect of rain in calming an agitated
sea is a popular belief among sailors.
Professor Osborn's recent Investigations
have thrown some light on the point:
and, as usual, confirm the popular
notions. Besides the splash, or rebound
of the falling drops on the surface of the
sea, and the little waves formed around
every drop, the professor found that
underneath the surface a very consider
able mechanical effect was being produced
of which no notice was given to the eye
of the looker-on. By an ingenious con-
trivance, he discovered that each drop of
rain, in falling, sends below the surface
a quantity ofwater, in the form of vortex
rings. They descend, with a gradually
diminishing velocity and increasing size,
as much as eighteen inches below the
surface, according to the size and speed
of the drop. Before they stop they have
generally attained a diameter of from
one to two inches and upwards. When
rain, therefore, is falling on the sea, there
is as much motion Immediately beneath
the surface as above it, only the drops
below it are larger and their motion
slower. The water at the Urface is thus
rapidly changing places with that at
some distance underneath. 1t is in this
way that rain tends to destroy wave
motion, or as sailors express it, knock
down the sea-"

The chair announced as busines the
nomination of vice-president. When
Indiana was called for its nomination the
state was greeted with much enthusiasm.
Indiana failing to present a candidate,
some one in his seat in the Illinois dele
CATION nominated Hendricks, when Mr..
Mcdonald, of Indiana, rose and said that
the candidacy of Mr.. Hendricks was
ended Yesterday Indiana bowed to the
decision Yesterday in favor of another
nominee; but they had no authority
from Mr.. Hendricks to accept the nomi-
nation for him to the vice-presidency.
Indiana would do its duty, but he i'm
piled doubts of the result in Indiana. The
convention must take the response

Mr.. Hardin, of Missouri, offered a res
olution that it is the duty of this con-
vention to select for vice-president one
who is the peer of the presidential nomi-
nee, and believing Hendricks to be that
man it is his duty to party and country
to serve, and we hereby nominate
him.
Mr. Brown, of Tennessee, seconded Mr..

Fusion of Rocks.
From Nature.

AT a recent meeting of the Physical
and Natural History society of Geneva
NJ. TheOd. Turrettini. who has to make
frequent visits to the boring of st.
Gothard tunnel, gave an account of 4
phenomenon which is frequently pro-
duced during the progress of the work in
the granite mass of the mountain. When
the rock is shaken by the explosion of a
mine, the reports resulting from the
explosion are not the only immediate
ones produced. Afterwards, and at equal
intervals, other spontaneous explosions
are produced, at considerable distances
from the mine hole, of which che cause
is unknown, and which cause numerous
accidents to the workmen. The ephenom-
enon is new, and it appears TO indicate in
the very substance of the granite aspecies
of tension inherent in its formation, and
which, agitated at one point, is transmit
ted to a distance so as suddenly to
disengage large fragments of material.
1t may be compared with the experiment
daily made by the quarrymen who work
the cratic blocks in the valleys of the
Alps TO obtain building materials. In
order to obtain them they use wedges of
wood which they drive into holes pierced
for the purpose, and which, being wetted,
cause by their expansion the disjunction
of the granite masses. This disjunction
is not produced by gradual assures as in
the case of millstones, for example. 1t
is always ACCOMPANIED by an explosion
more or less violent, and the two disjoined
surfaces cannot again be exactly fitted to
each other. There is reformation of the
material, leading to the presumption of
state of latent tension existing in the
constitution of the rock itself, and which,
a point hitherto quite mysterious, may
throw light on the mode of formation of
these ancient rocks.
