be in conjunction With the new mooo Of The

OUR MERCHANT MARINE.

just at this time when the question Of trade
with South America is being so extensively
agitated, not only In this city, but through
out the whole country. 1t is hardly necessary
to make apologies for offering the public any
important facts bearing upon the subject.
First we shall show by facts and figures de-
rived from official sources what o small pro-
portion we enjoy Of the benefits Of the trade
of single one of these South American
countries, Brazil, but that the largest and
richest of them ALL Then we shall endeavor
to account, In measure, for this crest dis
parity, SO much to our disadvantage, by
other statistics, taken also from official re-
ports, which will abundantly illustrate the
opposition against our marine OF points
where our merchants trade. From these sta
tistics 1t will be made apparent that our COM
petition In the markets of South America
will not be unattended with grave difficult
ties.
From the report Of the Brazilian Commits
sion at the Centennial Exposition we take the
following statement of the foreign trade Of
Brazil for the year 1876 giving the relative
proportion enjoyed by each Of the five great
commercial nations Of the world participating
In the Brazilian trade:

The annexation powers Of England are In

The annexation powers Of England are in
Uxhaustible. That country swallows more
territory In a year without war than Rus
eia gains In q decade with the loss of hun.
tired thousand men. During the past year
England added the Fiji Islands, the en-
Tire coast OF West Africa, and the Trans
vRal Republic to her already immense do
mains. and all this with the loss Of less than
hundred men; but the greatest annex
alton scheme Is the latest. The English
papers are now talking openly of " the
annexation of China to our Eastern Empire"
England already possesses the greater part
Of the Chinese trade, and boasts at Hong
Kong Singapore and Queensland of millions
ut Chinese subjects, SO that this annexation
might be done much more easily than one
would suppose, and with less expense
o men and money than the conquest of India
cost her. Certainly England Is making in
roads upon the western portion Of China. An
embassy has just been sent to Thibet, to
make some arrangements, 1t is said, with the
Grand Llama for the ABSORPTION of his terri
tory. Thibet is now tributary to China, and
Its ABSORPTION would bring England face to
lace with the Empire Of the Celestials. That

The United States enjoyed three earth
quakes during the past month The first
struck New York, New England and Canada,
and was quite severe. particularly in the lat
Der country. Thesecond visited North Carolina

which occurred only five days ago, visited

Our climate is yearly becoming more and
more demoralized. In the Senate of the Uni
tod States, the other day. Senator Paddock,
Uf Nebraska, called attention to the severe
drDuths and dangerous freshets occurring in
This country, and the fact that they were
yearly increasing in force and severity in
stead of decreasing as they should do in a
country that is being opened up to settle
meHt. The frequent and violent changes OF
weather occurring here he attributed to our
destruction of the original forests of this
country. To cure the evil he proposed the
appointment of commission to go to Europe
and study the forestry laws and regulations of
European countries, in order to put similar
laws in operation here. Although it may be
doubted whether this is the best mode of ac-
G0mplishing the end aimed at there is little
doubt that Congress might, with advantage,
turn its attention occasionally from the i'm
pruyement of the politics of this country to
the improvement Of its climate and meteorol-

Two more Republican members of the
South Carolina Senate, those from Sumter
and Lancaster counties, having been found
implicated in the frauds that prevailed in the
Palmetto State under Radical rule, have re-
signed their seats in order to avoid an in
vestigation by the Senate. their consequent
trial and conviction. These make some
half a dozen Radical members that have
retired from the South Carolina Senate
under fire. The Senate originally boosted
of a Republican majority, but convic-
lions, designations and new elections have
SO changed it that when it reassembles
the Democratic majority will be from six to
eight. In every election for members Of the
Legislature held since November the Demo-
Gratis have been successful; the Republicans
in very few instances placing any tickets at
all in the field. The House is overwhelm-
ingly Democratic.

The South Carolina courts have convicted
the third Radical thief brought up for trial.
The three rogues convicted are Cardozo, ex-
Treasurer of the State; Smalls, member Of
the present Congress, and L. Cass Carpenter,
an ex-member Of Congress. The next person
to be tried Is Niles G. Parker, ex-State Treas
urer.
Very little sympathy has been wasted on
these men. 1t is scarcely necessary to say
that the statute under which Smalls was in
dicted was one passed by the last Republican
Legislature of South Carolina; that the grand
jury which indicted him was one drawn by
the Radicals before the Hampton government
was established, and was composed large
ly of negroes; and lastly, that the petit jury
which convicted him stood: whites 6, negroes
6. Even the bloody shirt press of the North
cannot squeeze out tear over these lost
ones.

The fate of Robert L. Case, late President
of the New York Security Life and Annuity
Company. will probably prove a warning
to insurance companies. The crime for
which Case was tried was perjury, he
having sworn to false statement of the as
sets Of the company of which he was presi-
dent. The real estate of the company was
given at S45OOOO, whereas it had cost only
S15O, 900 and had probably decreased in value,
and the bank account was increased from
$500 to $4,000. OF all these discrepancies it
now appears that President Case knew moth
ing. He knew or suspected that there was
something rotten in the company, had good
reason to believe that the statement he was
