Young Grant and Ward, who went to

the dashing and reckless Spectator.
Gen. 10. g., Sr.,) was a partner in the

an energy that bewildered older and
wiser heads. Everything that could be

real estate, -four, grain, pork, oil and
other risks were taken. Young Grant
gained considerable notoriety in his
California schemes, from the time OF his
engagement to Bonanza Floods daugh-

years ago he was clerk with a thousand

into Wall street. He soon made enough
to buy a silver mine in Utah. of which
he brought roseate accounts to New

high, and he cleared $400, 900, with
which he set up a regal private estab.

ORR xEIenBoRING REPUBLIC.

Charles A. Dana, who has Just re-
turued from Mexico, gives his impress
sious of that turbulent Republic in a few
columns Of his paper. Mr.. Dana describes
the country as a vast plain, elevated
from 5000 to 5000 feet above the sea
level. and hemmed in between the two
mountain ranges along the respective
coasts. These mountains present an ef-
fectual barrier against rains, and thereby
making agriculture on an extended scale
impossible. . in the direction OF sheep
and cattle farming. There are almost
no small farms, because culture in small
holdings is out of the question; and es-
tates of hundreds of thousands OF acres
are the rule, because it is onlyi in the way
of grazing that land can be made to pay
expenses in such q country. The chief
business Of Mexico is mining. which has
proved enormously productive in the
past. and which In the future must be
the main source of Mexican prosperity.
The people of Mexico, about nine or
ten millions in number, are mainly In
dams, similar in race and habits to the
Pueblo, Zuni and r.avajo Indians OF New
Mexico and Arizona Honest. Indus-
trious, sober and intelligent, they form a
peasantry scarcely to be equaled- Their
virtues are their own; their vices OF Eu-
D admixture." The future OF Mex
leo, if she has one, lies in the education
and development Of this native race. The
ruling classes are mainly OF Spanish and
mixed blood, although the late President
Juarez was . pure Indian.
Mexico, in her constitution and forms
Of government has copied after the
United States. Congress, State Legisla-
lures, Governors Of States and a Presl-
dent are all to be found in the southern
Republic; but, unfortunately, the resem-
blance is merely external. The President
has absolute power, 50 that nothing short
of . revolution can limit his authority.
sMexico is . military despotism tenn
pered by pronunciamentos." A new
President in place of Gen. Gonzales is to
be chosen by electors in June, to hold
Office for four years. The coming man
is Gen. Porfrio Diaz, who was President
before Gonzales, and who is Mexico's
most popular citizen. Gen. Diaz is re-
garded by Mr.. Dana as the man best ht-
ted to lead the people of Mexico into
paths of genuine and substantial pro-
gress. Gen. Diaz has no opponent; for
there are no parties in Mexico, nor are
there politics, free speech or a free press.
Consequently there is no public opinion
and no self-government. Justice is adj
ministered by the Jefe Politico, the chief
magistrate of a township. At the insti-
CATION Of the Jefe, armed police arrest
any law-breakers. commit them to prison
and finally turn them over to the federal
authorities to be enrolled as soldiers and
sent to the distant and unhealthy island
of Yucatan. There is no trial.
There is no feeling in favor of annexa-

Mr.. Dana, the editor of tho New York Sun,

Mr.. Dana has evidently been doing good

is pleasant to note that ho has not thought in

vigorous and oft-repeated demand that "the

CITY OF MEXICO (via GALvEsToN), May

city council to tho board of directors OF
the Mexican Central railway at which 140
guests wero present. The banquet was pre-
sided over by Scuor Guillernis Valle presi-

President Diaz and on his left Mr.. Rotch, of

congratulating tho country on tho completion

sent owing to illness, but his speech was read
in Spanish and English. A member of tho
party from Boston. in the name of his COM
panions, proposed the following toast "Por-
firio Dia2, who, like Washington, is first in
the hearts of his countrymen."
President Diaz was very much moved
With tears in his eyes and his voice choked
with emotion he replied, while uvowing his
unworthinoss, that the compliment was the
greatest 1t was possible to pay any man in
any language, because comparison was made
with one, not only tho most eminent of
American citizens, but. taken all in all, was
the greatest man the world ever saw. He
spoke of his friendship for Americans, and
compared it in extent to the compliment paid
him. He considered that one of the greatest
acts of his life was the signing of the Mexican
Central railroad concession, and tho compile
tion of the road had vindicated his judgment
He foretold tho success of the road, and con-
cluded by rendering the thanks of Mexico to
the Boston capitalists for the benefits con-
ferrod upon the country by them.

The Shipping Bill.

The bill which passed the senate on Thurs.
day amending the shipping laws is the bill
that passed the house two weeks ago, changed
in some particulars to meet the views of the
majority Of the senate. The section allowing
tho importation of iron ships of 1000 tons
register was stricken out, All tonnage duties
arc removed from American vessels and from
the vessels of such foreign nations as impose
no duties on Amer an vessels. No hospital
tax is to bo collected from seamen and the
expense Of the marine hospital service is to
paid out of the United States treasury.
The bill further provides that when a
vessel is built in the United States on foreign
account upon delivering it to its foreign
owners, the builders are to be entitled to a
drawback equal to the amount of duty paid
on imported materials with 10 per cent. off,
There are number of provisions relating to
tho mode of shipping and discharging seameu
which are of no special Importance.
The section which will doubtless encounter
the most opposition in tho house relates to
the subsldisng of ocean steamers in the mail
service. The postmaster general is au

The Revenue Marine.

Senator Blairs bill providing, for the re.
firing on pay of officers of the revenue
marine who have been disabled in the service
or are Go years old or who have been forty
years in service, is likely to come up in the
senate this woek. Its passage will be
a rather late recognition of the
services of hard-working and cour-
agoous body Of men, whose services
have been of great value for years. They
guard the coast from Alaska to Maine, and
protect legitimate commerce from ruinous
competition Of foreign smuggers. Revenue
to the amount of 5000, 100000 is saved to this
country through their services aud, COM
pared with this, the amount necessary to put
them on tho same footing with the less
severely worked army and navy is ridicu-
lously small.
These men can point to other services than
those embraced in tho regular line of their
duty as claims for the consideration of this
country. The cool daring of Lieut.. Rogers,
saving the passengers from tho wrecked City
of Columbus, recalled scores Of instances
in which the men of the revenue
marine had saved, at tho risk of
their own, the lives of shipwrecked
mon and women. 1t will also be remembered
that in the Aguero affair two revenue cutters
were most active in preventing unpleasant
international difficulties. The services of
the revenue marine is indisputable. Will
congress acknowledge them?
Civilians can see no good reason why the
officers of this service should not be added to
the navy, where they would naturally seem
to belong, and that addition will some time
be made. Until that is done, however, the
hardest-worked sailors in government SER
vice ought not to be treated as common
workmen.

THE opening OF the Museum of Archaeology at
Cambridge attracted many distinguished visitors,
Mr.. Lowell making brief speech. He slightly
surprised the public by the remark that no mu.
scum could ever convert the Anglo-saxon race

pense. 1t is we'll the thoughtful correspond

ances had convulsed the British public as
though struck below the belt with slug Of

only occasioncd mild surprise, it will no be
in order for agitation over tho event to cease
throughout the planetary system. The coun-
try owes the Tribune debt of gratitude for
paying man to keepit posted alb out all such
important occurrences as that described above.

PAUL sTRoBACn,s CASE.
Report OF the Senate Judiciary Commit-
tee That He Could Not Legally Act ms
Marshal After ApriI 10. 1854

Report OF tho Senate Judiciary Commit-
tco That He Could Not Legally Act ms
Marshal After April 16, 1854.
Senator Logan submitted to the senate on
Saturday the report Of the senate judiciary
committee on Senator Morgan's resolution OF
inquiry regarding tho status of Paul Strobach,
marshal Of middle and southern district OF
Alabama. 1t recites the circumstances of the
suspension of Osborne (the former marshal),
the appointment of Strobach; his rejection
by tho senate; Osborne's application then
made to the circuit court for reinstatement
the denial fsuch application; the subsequent
expiration april 16, 1S5i) of the four years
term for which Osborne had been nominated,
and tho continuance of Strobach to perform
the duties of the Office
The committee report that in their opinion
the true construction of the act under which
Strobach was appointed must be that the ap-
pointment was to hold good only so long al
the legal term of the suspended officer CON
tinued; that when that term expired sus-
pension no longer existed, and that inasmuch
as the designation of another person to per-
form the duties of suspended officer depends
upon the continuance of the state Of suspen-
sion, the legal termination of the suspension
legally terminates the official functions OF
the person designated. The report then
states: 1T follows from the foregoing consid-
GRAFTON, in the opinion OF the committee, that
Mr.. Strobach was not, after tho 18th day OF
April, 1884, (being the day of the termination
of the official term Of Osborne as marshal)
legally entitled to execute tho powers and
duties of such Office in the place of Osborne,
or under any such designation"
The report then cites section 1893 of the
revised statutes, which gives the circuit Judge
authority to fill vacancies in the marshal's
office, which provides that the person so
appointed Shall serve until an appointment
is made by the president, and the appointee
is duly qualified, and no longer"
The report closed as follows
"ln conclusion, the committee is of opinion
that after the expiration of the term OF
| Osborne, and during the session of tho senate,
no person can lawfully exercise tho duties OF
that office until he shall have been appointed
thereto either by the president, by and with
the advice and consent Of the senate, or by
the circuit Justice of that circuit, in conform
ity with section 793 Of the revised statutes"

his deficiency in fortune by marrying rich
wife, and then sodulously devoted himself to
squandering her estate. 4 year ago the poor
woman was obliged to summon him into a
