if we had postal money order system estab-
lished between this and all other countries,
for the transmission of small sums of money
at least. Indeed this postal money order sys-
tenn should become universal:

States was established October I, 1854.

766.

The amount saved to the people of the United
States in the way of exchange since the adop.
tion of the postal money order system in 1854
amounts to upwards of 81, 900, 600, and the bus
mess of this department is constantly increas
ing making the saving to the people annual,
of hundreds of thousands of dollars. These ar
practical reforms, and are evidences of the in
intelligence of the people and the desire of tn,
governments adopting them to study the in
terests of their citizens.

Encouraging Signs.

If we are to credit the reports from the
Eastern States, and especially from the city
of New York, there is healthy sign of re-
vival of business which promises well in the
near future. These reports go to show that
the immense crops of all descriptions of pro-
ductions have no precedent in former years,
over those of the year 1878, which must tell
upon the business of the country in very
short time. Add to this the enormous balance
of over $500, 100000 in favor of the United
States in nine months of the present year, and
we have an exhibit that is really encouraging.
If the export trade should keep up for the
last quarter of the year, there will be bal
ance of trade of from FIVE to seven hundred
millions in favor of the States at the close of
the fiscal year, which will be extraordinary.
When the balance of trade is SO largely in
favor of a country, there is always plethora
of money which stimulates enterprise and
speculation, and consequently large amount
of money is put into circulation, which must
be employed in all the branches of trade, Civ
ing to the merchant, the manufacturer, jobber
and artisan employment, and thus diffusing
the healthy life blood of trade-(money
throughout the arteries of the body polite,
and bringing about prosperity and happiness
to all classes.
These facts, with the premium on gold but
nominal, are the best evidences that food tide
of unwonted prosperity has commenced to flow
to the shores of America, which cannot fail to
lift her people out of the depressed condition
which bad financial system, over production
in manufactures, and reckless course on the
part of Congress for so many years past, in
the passage Of laws favoring gigantic railroad
corporation and moneyed monopolies, have put
them. The efforts now being made on the part OF
the manufacturers in the United States, to ex-
tend their trade with the outside world, espe-
cially with Central and South America, Japan
and countries on the continent of Europe
will not be without their fruit. Already these
have began to tell upon the markets of the
world. Even in England, the United States
manufacturers, in many of the articles of
every day use, are successfully competing
with those of the British Empire, whilst at
the same time the States are supplying eight
tenths of the breadstuffs to feed the people of
England and the continent of Europe. In
every aspect that we can view the present
condition of the States, the outlook is cheer
full in the extreme for Americans.
In this connection we are glad to have it in
our power to add, that here in our own little
island home, the evidences of solid prosperity
are to be seen on all hands, and our people
are correspondingiy happy with the prospect.
Truly "the hand of the diligent maketh rich. ~

What Does lI Mean

From the New York American Correspond
ence," under date of September 7th, we learn
that orders from the Navy Department at
Washington have been received TO have all
the war vessels at present in the Brooklyn
Navy Yard, Immediately prepared for active
service. The reasons that have prompted this
order are not vet known, but there seems to
be no good occasion for alarm, notwithstand-
ing the rumors ahoat of difficulties of seri-
Gus character between the United States and
Mexico. We do not believe that whatever
misunderstanding may exist between the two
countries, arising out of the Mexican border
raids which have taken place within the past
two or three years on the Mexican and Texan
frontiers, will culminate in actual hostilities,
but that the whole matter will be settled di-
Dramatically Although the correspondence
between the American Minister to Mexico, Mr.
Foster, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs OF
the Republic of Mexico has recently been of a
spicy character, we do not believe there will
be war.
We lndl al Will
as much from the fact that Mr. Zamacona, the
Mexican Minister accredited to the United
States, seems to busy himself more about COM
mercial matters than anything else. We find
this latter gentleman at Chicago figuring among
the merchants and manufacturers of the latter
city to get up direct trade between Mexico
and Chicago, whilst there does not appear to
be any fear of passage at arms between the
two peoples of the sister republics. While
such is our opinion of the real condition of
things between the two countries, there may
be real danger OF rupture, because it is well
known that there are certain parties in the
United States who are constantly plotting in
trigues against the peace of the two republics,
and that those parties are always to be feared
in any country, because they are moved not by
patriotism but by the sordid.. motives of sell
interest. But whether there is danger of COLI,
sion or not, it is the part of wisdom to verify
the proverb, :" 81 bis pacem para bellum."

Postal Money order system.

By the following statistics of the postal
money order system in the United States, and
other countries, where this safe and convenient
mode of transmitting money has been intro
duced, it will be seen how extensive has been
the operations through the Post Offices of the
different countries. The postal money order
system is not only safe and trustworthy
mode, but it is also cheap one. For the
small fee charged by the post offices for re-
ceiving money and giving postal order, which
is equal to bill of exchange or commercial draft
at sight, the money is received an8the order
sent with due dispatch, accompanied with all
the safeguards of registration at both ends of
the route; and thus the public are accommo-
dated at small expense and the high rates Of eI-
change charged by bankers and brokers, saved.
It would be great convenience to the people

The Election. in Oregon and Maine.

The result of the recent elections in Oregon
has been disastrous to the Republicans in the
State Legislature. The Democrats obtained n
majority in both branches, which enabled
them to elect one of their own political faith
to the United States Senate, in place of Mr..
Mitchell, the present incumbent, whose term
expires on March 4, 1879.
The election of Mr.. James H. Slater, to the
United States Senate from Oregon, adds an
other vote to the ranks of the Democrats in
the Senate. and makes the parties very close
in the latter body if it does not give the pre-
ponderanee to the Democrats. The late cleo
tion for members of Congress in the State of
Maine, gives the Democrats two of their poll
teal faith from the latter State, instead of two
Republicans, and thus swells the majority of
the Democrats in the House of Representa-
tives that much over the number in the last
Congress.
The election in the State of Maine in 0cto-
Der is one of the most significant signs Of the
change of political sentiment on the part of
people which has taken place for many years.
Maine is the home of Mr.. Senator Blaine,
where that gentleman by his ract and fine for
ensic talents has led his party to victory for
the past twenty years. To lose two Republi-
can Congressman in Republican districts in
such State as Maine, is political disaster
of more than ordinary moment, and shows
that the people have taken things into their
own hands with determination to make a
change. The same spirit seems to be rife in
other Northern States where changes may be
expected, and thus the administration of Pre-
sident Hayes, in its second year, will find
itself confronted with majority in both
branches of the National Legislature, a result
which argues anything but strength on the part
of the occupant of the White House at Wash
ington.
In the great States of New York and Penn
sylvania, the contest is now going on and will
be decided in few days, which will settle
the question as to who will be the success
sors of Messrs. Conkling and Cameron, the
United States Senators from the above two
States, whose terms expire respectively on
the 4th of March, 1880. Should the Republi-
cans lose these two States in the pending con-
test, then, the winning party will not only
have the control of Congress, but will dictate
who will succeed President Hayes in the
White House in 1881.
The elections in Oregon and Maine will have
good deal to do with the decision at the
polls, both in New York and Pennsylvania
because the moral effect of such results can
not well be parried by the losing party. 1t il
plain, therefore, that too much Importance
cannot be attached to the contest for suprem-
acy in America to those who take any interest
in such matters; and it is almost impossible
for US here, SO intimately connected with the
States as we are, not to feel more or less in.
terest in the political struggle, which mus
exercise an important influence on the futur,
history of great country.
