SOUTHERN RAILROAD CONNECTIONS

Just now the Cincinnati Southern
Railroad stands greatly in need of the
most skillful management. Nothing but
mastery diplomacy will enable this great
enterprise to give to Cincinnati the ad-
vantages that we have been taught to
expect. The purchase of the Nashville
& Chattanooga Road by the Louisville &
Nashville Company makes the Cincin-
natl Southern the natural outlet for Col.
Coles system of Southern railroads As
the case now stands we have nothing to
fear. We can offer Col. Cole a route
ninety-three miles shorter from the At
lantic seaboard to Chicago than Louis
vile has secured. We offer him the use of
a bridge over the Ohio that is part of the
Southern Railroad, while at Louisville
the crossing is by means of an expensive
toll bridge. So far we seem to be ahead,
but to remain so Cincinnati must aid in
any way needed in keeping the system
south of Chattanooga unbroken. If it
takes money Cincinnati capitalists can
well affsrd the investment. All that the
Southern Railroad Trustees are expected
to do is to keep in close communication
with our natural allies, and when aid is
needed to put Cincinnati capitalists In
the way of investing where they will Sc
cure a good return, and Cincinnati will
reap the advantages Of the control
There is plenty of capital here seeking
investment. It's owners will always bt
glad to place it where, in addition t(
yielding a good income, it will aid il
advancing the interests of this city.

If but one-fourth the sum annually

SAN FRANCISCO AND SHIP CANALa

of recent date, discusses at some length
and with great perspicuity the question
of the proposed Trans-Continental Canal
via the Isthmus, arguing that while such
work, if successfully accomplished,
might deprive the City of the Golden
Gate of some of her commerce in the
way of teas and silks from China and
Japan, now sent by railroadacross the
mountains, it would on the other hand,
so stimulate and develop the industry
and consequently population on the Pa
ciic slope, as to very greatly overbalance
any possible loss through the diversion of
portion of its trade in the above-named
articles.
The growth and prosperity of Cali
fornia, says the Alta, California, depend
to considerable extent upon the devel-
opment of the commerce and industry of
the basin of the North Pacific. The
North Atlantic has about 2O,00O,OO0 tons
of ocean shipping, while the North
Pacific has not 100000, though it has
as many industrious tributary people.
The Chinese. japanese and Mexicans
must be educated in the industrial arts
of Europe, provided with steam machin.
cry, railroads, good wagon roads, and all
the improved devices for saving labor
and time; and California, Ore
gon, Arizona, Washington, Idaho, Brit
ish Columbia and Alaska must be filled
with people. One of the most efficient
influences to bring about these desirable
changes is the opening Of channel by
which large ships can pass cheaply anc
speedily between the two oceans at the
American Isthmus, so as to give us tht
benefit of their shipping, and enable III
to exchange our products with those ol
Europe at less expense for freight.
As the development of wealth in tn,
United States has been one of the chic
sources Of the prosperity of Great Bri
tain, so the progress of civilization il
China and Japan will pay an immens'
tribute to California.
1t goes on to argue that the temperat.
zone is the region of high civilization
and that those races which do not accep
the dominion of steam machinery mus
die out while those that do will live ant
help to enrich those with whom the,
traffic:
The future of California, Oregon
Washington, British Columbia ant
Alaska, is intimately associated with tina
of China, Japan and Eastern Siberia
and we hope that within the next hun
dred years they will enjoy develop
ment at least as great and marvellous a
that which has blessed the basin of tn
North Atlantic since 1880. Californi,
and San Francisco have such advantage
that they can look forward to the nea
and the remote future with confidence
Business and pleasure will continue II
maintain the combination which hav
made our State and city SO attractive il
the past. Every American inter-oceani
canal, and every American trans-conti
mental railroad is, in our opinion, bene
fit to our State and CITY,"

THE GOLDEN CROWN.

A few years ago I was advised by my
physicians to try the effect of the waters
at that beautiful place in Germany, Spa.
The noise, the gaiety, and the constant
fetes were, however, not in unison with
my spirits, and produced so enervating
result that, instead of curing me, I
gradually became worse. l therefore
sought calm, country retirement, where
/ could enjoy natures loveliness, and
make excursions to the villages in the
neighborhood. .t
On one bright day I was strolling
through the hamlet of Walberg, where
the small population of two or three
hundred inhabitants were holding their
annual feast. A level, hard piece of
ground, with no other roof than the blue
sky, surrounded by wooden benches,
served for a ballroom. Dancing needed
no midnight excitement, for it began at
2 o'clock and ended with the departing
daylight. Tall, robust girls, in holiday
costume, fitting subjects for the pencil
of Rubens; and young men with cheerful
faces, were looking earnestly in one d.
rection, where l could discern nothing
but deep sandy road, unshaded by trees.
A murmur Of impatience was heard
through the confused sound of voices.
"Whom are they expecting p asked Of
an old matron seated at the end Of a
bench. .....
"Eh, parbleu, they are waiting for the
dear old Father. He is always so exact,
and the children would have been dane.
ing by this time had he not been de-
layed."
I understood then that she was speak.
ing of the village fiddler, and remarked a
sort of dais raised within the circle. 1t was
composed of board laid on two barrels,
and the chair placed on it seemed ashamed
of its solitude; an old desk stood
before, to hold the music. Soon a JOY
GUS hurrah came from the peasants, and
I perceived a poor old man, hobbline
painfully throug gh the dust. His head
was nearly bald; but its form was mas
sive, and the face was still handsome.
He appeared to be about eighty, yet his
eve still retained the softened reflection
Of it's Youthful fire. His smile was all
goodness as he affectiopately pressed the
hands Of the Young ones who gathered
round him.
A country minstrel seldom pleases the
refined taste. and to escape from the
noise and intense heat, l turned awav te
small group of beeches, and began t.
read the hook which was INV constant com
panion. Presently heard sounds SO soft
