DIRECT TO EUROPE.
Another Chance for Memphis via Nor
foIk--.A ST. Louis View.
ST. Louis RepubIlcan.

St. Louis Republican,
Norfolk is the natural Atlantic port
ofSt Louis, and for direct trade with
Europe offers facilities to St. Louis
unequalled by those of New York or
Baltimore or any other. Norfolk aud
Memphis lie on the great highway
from the Atlantic to the Pacific. BY
the route which is so ably argued BY
the Mexican minister. Zamacona. The
whole distance from Norfolk, via
Austin, Texas, to the best port near
the mouth ofthe Gulf Of California, is
about two thousand miles. From
Norfolk TO Austin via Memphis, the
distance by rail is now twelve hundred
miles. A road can be built from Aus.
tin across the finest region of Mexico
to the Pacific in eight hundred miles.
This will give to Memphis very
great advantages in securing the best
port for a great direct trade with
Europe, But Memphis does not yet
command the capital, and her recent
misiortunes have impaired her bust
ness enterprise, and it is now that st.
Louis can grasp for herself all the
benefits that viii accrue from estab-
fishing a great direct European trade
through the natural and easiest chan
mel. As a grain shipping port and a
cotton shipping port, Norfolk is I'M
equaled. The largest ships in the
world now daily load at her Wharyes
from her great cotton presses, which
are working day and night, and can set
sail from their berths and be out on
the best route to Liverpool in an
hour and a half. These ships return
ing bring in immigrants seeking homes
in N:fglnia, aud while st. Louis is
moving in great railroad enter
prises an | digesting schemes for bring
ing immigrants to develop her
great industries, it behooves her to
study well the peculiar advantages she
must derive by the early establish
ment Of a route for her foreign trade
which secures to her the beat port on
the Atlantic coast. Next summer
will see the railroad from the Biz
sandy to Mount Sterling completed.
thus connecting st. Louis with Nor
fox by the Chesapeake and Ohio rail
rold. 1t is understood that next
month the English boRdholders of the
ROAD from Norfolk to Bristol, 1870
mile3, will buy it. That they will
then be able to establish good freight
rates between Norfolk and Memphis.

bales.

make up his mind TO take the Sena-
torship. The Secretary who is a man
of ready wit, saw the point and re,
piled at once, No, no, Senator, il |
should como back to thesenate, lshould
prefermy old seat, pointing to theseat
which he formerly occupied on the
Republican side, and of course init
mating that he should prefer to sue
coed Pendleton and not Thurman who
was his old colleague when'Sherman
was in the Senate. Senator Thurman
is looking in better health than when
he went away, and seems to take his
defeat with a good deal of philosophy.
His departure will be a great loss to
the Democratic party, and it is safe to
say that there is not a single Senator
on either side, who does not regret
that he is so o to leave the Senate.
All things considered, he is probably
the ablest man in the United States
Senate, to-day, and he is universally
esteemed and liked. Ohio cannot
make his place good whoever she may
send. The talk of the Ohio Republi-
cans here, is that Garfield is almost
certain to be elected as Humans
successor.

inhabitants Of this province are en-
tilely clothed in cotton. Cotton Gov
erlets take the place of blankets and
mattresses on their beds. Their socks.
caps, shoes and boots are made of the
same material, even the thick soles
are formed by layers of cotton rags in
lieu Of leather. Their sedan chairs
are often covered with cotton. Wad-
ded curtains of cotton in many in
stances supply the place of doors in
their houses. to say nothing of the
other uses Of cotton in umbrellas.

1878, in foreign vessels, were imported
to Chefoo 232, 000,0 needles. Surely
it is not too sanguine to expect a cou-
pie or so of yards of cotton textile for
each needle" But a great market
may be won or may be lost. The
Consul adds There is a Chinese
proyerb that the conjuror does not
deceive tho man who beats the gong
for him., and when Manchester hit
upon the idea of heavily sizing its
textiles aud attempting to sell glue as
cloth to a people as skilled as the
Chinese are in the arts of putting iron
filings and cactus leaves in tea and
water Ia six, it was certainly iniu-
dieious. The consequence Is that our
textiles have got a bad name. the de-
mand for them is decreasing and their
place is being supplied by American
manufactures. American drills. though
10 per cent. dcarer, are driving Eng.
fish drills out of the market.
