Rev, J. Hyatt Smith, of Will
liamsburg, N. Y, during an ad-
dress on "Party Domination,
said that "party would damn the
United States if it is ever to be
damned, for the animus of par
ties now Is to defeat each other,
no matter by what means or
through what men. Compare
the legislators of the present
day to those of even less than
half a century ago. Then the
capitol was a small building with
big men; now we have a big
building with small men. The
decorum of the legislators is al
so different; then it was, 'The
honorable gentleman errs. >
Now it is, You lie." Look
where you will you will see the
same downward tendency, no.
ticeably in the recent election.
1t is the duty of the pulpit to
warn the people against this,
and continue repeating the
warning until the people rise
above the influence of party. If
We cannot do this as a nation we
are gone, and none will be left
to do US homage"

Puget Sound.

From the Mission Local. paper
published in the suburbs Of San
Francisco, we Gull the following:
The resources of Washington
Territory, if unlocked by direct
communication with the East,
are sufficient to make her one of
the first States in the Union.
When people in the East look on
the map and find Puget Sound
in the same latitude as the fro
zen regions of Canada, they nat
urally look for a similar climate.
England and Ireland, lying fur
ther north than the United
States, possess a milder climate.
The truth is there is a warm
belt of air, known as the iso-
thermal line, winding it's serpen-
tine course around the earth.
At some points it diverges to the
south; at others it swings away
to the north. Had the earth a
smooth surface entirely of land,
this warm belt would coincide
with the lines Of latitude, but
the genial currents of air eman-
ating from the tropical streams
that flow through the oceans are
waited across the land, and when
not obstructed by high mount
ain ranges carry their mild influ-
ence far inland. The great ia
pan current that pours through
the Nerth Paclticpresses against
the coast Of Washington Terri
tory, and it's warm water,
brought into Puget Sound by
the daily tide, imparts to the sur
rounding land a temperature SIM
liar to that of Virginia. We're
it not for this influence that Ter
ritory would be given over to
stunted tribes and white bears.
With railroad communication,
the great basin of Puget Sound,
with its broad, magnificent for
ests, it's inland sea a hundred and
twenty miles long, with coast
line of sixteen hundred miles,
its beautiful navigable rivers
pouring through fertile valleys,
It's inexhaustable beds of coal
and mines of iron, will attract
the attention of capital and la
Dor, and that Territory, teeming
with hidden wealth, will begin
to be heard from.

The. KENosHA Telegraph very
earnestly recommends the nomination
of..Capt. Ernest G. Timme of Kenosha
for Secretary Of State. Capt. rimmc
is German by birth and has been a
resident of the state for % yeats;

of the Rebellion, losing an arm in
the great struggle for the supremacy
ofthe nation. Capt. Timme is un-
deubtedly qualified for the position,
else the. leading state papers would
not speak the good words they do for
him. The Gernaanio and Herald of
Milwaukee the Madison correspon-
dant of the Chicago Times, the Sen
tinel, the Kenosha Union, a>democra-
tic paper; the Oshkosh North Western,
the State Jomal and many others
give him hearty endorsement. When
such papers give a man a letter of rec
ommedation it naturally follows that
hesnust have something of the worthy
and commendable in his character, =
something that fits him for the posi-
ton: We only hopes that the best,
not the available man may be nomina-
ted. ltis. better to suffer defeat with
good man than to achieve victory with
a poor one Defeat in suchan instance
becomes azyictory. Having no. &C.
quantanes with Mr.. Timme, we can
only take the say so of the Journals
which speak in high praise of his quail
ifcatioDs for the position, which with
US Is sufficient guarantee Of, fidelity
and capability.
