IT Is not often that we hear from our
little vice president, but when he speaks
at all, 1t is with splendid effect. His
eloquence and power of statement are
strongly set forth in the following ex-
tract from his speech, delivered at Og-
d~ensburg, N. Y, n day last week.
Mr.. Wheeler said:
August .. 1861, ! saw j. c. breckenridge. the
brilliant and gifted senator OF Kentucky,
disloyal, leave the senate chamber and join
his fortunes with those Of the rebellion. Had
any man then predicted TO me that / would
preside over n body In which were twenty
rebel generals, with a clerk who was an ofii-
Ger on General Lees stan, l should have
counted him n ~lunntic, and yet his prediction
would have been verified. In tho sweep of
the senate chamber my eye takes In twenty
rebel generals.and a chief clerk, who was a
member Of Lees stan. These men have
made their way by and through Anderson
Vile: by and through Libby; by and through
Appomattox; by and through sixty cemeter-
les, in which hundreds OF soldiers await the
last .~reveille, those who barred their way 10
the capital, but who now.speak only through
the mute and simple headstone which re-
cords a life gone out for liberty.

THE live stock trade between the
United States and England is assum-
ing such large proportions and is be-
ing brought down SO fine that the clos
est calculations are being made with
reference thereto. The Siockman says
an interesting calculation has been
compiled by the Liverpool underwrit-
ers of the average percentage of loss of
live stock during the passage from the
United States and Canada. The result
shows that in the ase of cattle the loss
is about three per cent. of the numbers
shipped, whilst sheep only suffer to the
extent of two per cent. The heaviest
mortality is in the case Of pigs. 1t is
also observable that the losses in the
conveyance Of live stock have greatly
diminished when contrasted with the
mortality when the trade was in its in
fancy, at which time 1t was computed
that the loss in cattle amounted to 25
per cent.

The sad mistakes made

THE sad mistakes made by Major
Thornburg, while in command of the
Ute expedition, have been variously
commented upon by the civilian press.
The following criticism is from the
Army aud Nary Journal, being an ex-
cerpt from a letter written by an officer
at the front:
While fully recognizing the g~allantry OF
T~hornburgh. tits only proper TO say that q
man OF more experience would not have met
with his fnte. Promoted from the artillery to
paymaster, and transferred to the line, IL was
not expected that he would have much Judg-
ment. from lack OF experience in Indian
fighting. But, and those butts are continually
occurring. 1t was not thought there would be
any trouble. ~Thornburgh made two mis-
takes. The first was his arrival at Bear river.
Being told the Indians would fight him, 1.-The
advanced beyond the lines OF their reserva-
ton. Milk creek, he should have halted, and
waited for achievements. Second. Having
decided 10 advance, his command should
have been concentrated. and not scattered, or
separated from his wagon train. His flult
was lack ofexperience, and contempt for the
Indian foe, His individual bravery no one
doubted, and when once attacked he did the
best any mar could have done. 1t is always
best to overrate. rather than underrate your
adversary. Even Crook, with all his expert.
ence. fell Into the former mistake. and this
contact with the Sioux Indians, at Rosebud.
opened his eyes to the fact that the Indian
was a willy and skfliful foe. and in his method
more formidable than ourselves.

What Ibe d.. shaw Thinks OF
American Progress I'm England

VIVA Albert d.. shaw link OF
American Progress I'm England
New York, Nov. 4.-Albert D. Shaw,
United States consul at Manchester, in
answer to the question: What is
your opinion of the future prospects in
the manufactures In England" says;
"Knowing, as l do, the almost limit
less Of the United States in
raw materials, l naturally incline to the
opinion that American enterprise.
backed by adequate cheap capital, will
be equal to the future, and that our raw
materials, SO wonderfully distributed
over our vast continent, will be manu-
featured cheapest near the place Of pro-
duction. The genius Of American in
ventors, and the growing skill of
American operators, coupled with the
cheap lands and cheap food, will GER
tainly place us in a favorable position
for winning the race in the information
al contest for the controlling position
in manufactures"
In answer to other questions Mr..
Shaw said: Beer is the great curse of
the poorer classes in England. 1t
deadens the moral and physical forces,
and, at the same time robs them Of
much of their hard earnings. The
drink question is a serious one at pres
emit. In England, nee an operative,
as a rule always an operative.
In the matter of placing American
farm produce, the consul said. ST
shipments were made to responsible
houses interested In produce, where
sales would be made under their guar
antee as to quality and condition, a
great improvement would follow. I
have known fifty packages of Ameri-
can butter to be sold at auction at
Liverpool, at sixteen cents a pound,
forty packages Of which, a week later,
were sold by the purchasers for twenty
eight cents a pound, and the price of
butter had not advanced in the general
market. In the meantime, this dealer
sent the butter to his warehouse, care
fully assorted it, branded it with the
firm name. and made a handsome profit
simply because he became responsible
for the quality Of the same.
