The circular of the Pacific Coas.
Steamship Company announces that
the staunch and elegant steamers
CITY Of Chester and Idaho, carrying
the British and American mails, will
sail from San Francisco on the 10th
Goth and Both of each month, at
P. NJ, for Victoria, Port Townsend
Seattle, Tacoma and Olympia. They
will leave Victoria on return trips,
the same days, alternating. No
vessels of the line have yet come
through to this place, but from the
wording of the circular, just quoted,
we presume it is the intention of the
company to do SO, soon as their ar
rangements are perfected. The City
of Chester, which arrived at Tacoma
last Sunday, brought the largest
freight-list of general merchandise
ever carried to that place, and she
departed thence for Nanaimo, to re-
ceive 700 tons of coal.

The ONO GEHMASs.-TLc New
York Hrrali's Columbus, Ohio, cor
respondent is Of the opinion that the
Republican Germans are lane to
make n break. He says: The most
significant fact in connection, with
national politics i'll the State Al vles-
ent is the wavelinS of the Geiuians,
who have been voting the Republic
can ticket for the past few years.
The thread which held them to the
party has been slender, and it now
seems liable TO break. Garfield is
not popular with the Germans, while
Hancock, is and Il stamped to him
seems imminent. The jIdchtcr Am
Erie, the most influential German
paper in the northern part of the
State, has deserted the Republicans
and will support the Democratic
National and State tickets. In the
likely event of further detection of
Germans, this influence on the State
and Congressional campaigns will be
decidedly unfavorabie to the Repub-
licans.

ii was the intention Of the manipulators or not
is creating large short" interest, that Is made
up by the sales Of the promiscuous traders Every
one is at sea as TO the intentions of the large oper
ators who, for the moment, make prices either up
OF down. as they please. The general conviction OF
the average traders however, is that the manipula
tion means lower prices, and the majority Of small

All honor to our own dear land that veneratea
the deadi
Let the loved Emblem be unfurled, and wave
above each head!
And, when the duy comes round again, fresh
flowers III richest bloom
Ihe Earth will yield us IN offering to deck the
silent tomb. AfItS T. A. f. Wf1rcov
