matter to grain only. When other mer-
chandise and considerations Of ma
tonal policy come in, the reader, il
he never gave the MISTER consid-
Grafton before, must feel dsWning in his
mind profound conviction of the absolute
and overwhelming necessity there is for an
ocean canal across the isthmus. With such a
canal, how immensely would our Pacific
States add to the amount of their Produc-
tions! And as the increased commerce fos-
tered enterprise and ushered in an era OF
buoyant prosperity, immigration would
crowd the fourishing States 30 rich in natural
resources. Turning from commercial to
national considerations, recent occurrence
will show how they are interested. In the
autumn of 1881 we became involved in the
quarrel carried on 80 bitterly by Peru and
Chill. Matters at one time drifted near TO
war. Had they done so altogether,
what would have been our posi-
ton? To defend our national honor
and protect our commerce, we had on the
Pacific only a few wooden cruising ships OF
war, ships that the powerful ironclads OF
Chill could have blown out of the ocean. To
reinforce that pitiful array of helplessness,
our ships would have had 10 sail around
Cape Horn. Chill knew this and was ipso-
lent; she understood her advantage and
defed us. Had an interoceanic canal been
in existence, how different would have been
the position! From our Atlantic ports a
fleet could have reached Callao in twelve
days, rom our gurf perrs in week..-tu
relation to possible events it is of the utmost
importance that we should have speedy &C.
GEES by the seaboard to our Pacific States; il
requires little reflection 10 perceive of what
moment such access is to US. As our
commerce. with the islands and continent
in and beyond The Pacific ocean in
creases, our need for a canal across
the isthmns increases, both from natural and
considerations. We have here a
most important subject for the consideration
OF each American citizen. Let us learn wis-
dom, however, from our experience in build
ing railroad across the Rocky. mountains,
and not be beguiled into paying too dear
for our whistle" A Nicarsgusn canal lie
projected, with an arrangement that looks
like Uncle Sam paying the ex-
penses and millionaire shareholders pocket
ing the proceeds. The Panama canal with
out a lock is under construction. "We must
look before we leap.v

JUDAS IS0AKIOT
Ard the Other Leading Characters in
the" Passion Play f" ON the Eve
OF Strike.
POntius PLATE, >SaIome. HerOd, John
the Baptist, Peter, Mary and Joseph
All i'm the Ring.

NEW YORK, December 18.-There bid,
fair to be a strike among the apostles and
other characters of Mr.. Salmi Morse's Pas
sio7: Play, which has been promised TO the
| New York public for Christmas eve. "J0hn
the Baptist" "Peter" and "Judas Iscariot'
| have intimated more or less openly that they
would refuse to play on the opening night as
soon as the curtain had rung down on the
first act. "Pontius PLATE" ''Saiome" and
"Herod" have Joined them in their contuma a.
| CT, and boldly advise the apostles to sit
| bodily on the curtain and not let it rise at
all. "Joseph," "Mary" and the "Levite"
| have not been approached by the conspirs-
altitude. AS the play opens with a scene in
the temple, it Is believed by the company
| that, rather than have a row in the temple,
| the author will accede to their dem auds
This agitation among the New Test ament
actors is due to their having been
unable thus far to obtain written con-
tracts from the manager, assuring them,
as they are amateurs, of permsnency
of employment and suitable sal
aries. Ii is their impression that, if the
play be tolerated BY the New York press
and public, lis cast will be strengthened by
filling their places with professional actors;
and the piece then set for something like
Hazel Kirke run. They do not propose TO
rehearse Two months for the sake of being
asS2lleQ Win vegetables III case the repre-
sentation is condemned, or of being turned
off if it proves a success. They do not in

At the first meeting of the company Mr. |

it ought to be the endeavor of the court and
jury, even the counsel, 10 have the case fairly
and impartiaIly tried-as though never tried
before, as though the art of printing were
never discovered. He thought the difficulty
srose from mistaken views of the reporters,
who thought that in the courtroom, under
the authority of the government, they could
demand their own price. He said they will
see that they occupy no such position. Bliss

SKIPwITH, Miss, December 1S.-On Sat
urday last row occurred at Green6eld's store
on Lake Washington. Harris, a negro
teamster, while under the influence Of liquor
