Now that new era has opened in
Mexico and the last spike has been
driven in the railroad connecting the
capital with the cities of the United
States, immense opportunities must be
presented to persons of enterprise and
intelligence who are ON the ground and
understand the situation fully. Judge
Y. Sepnlveda, We understand, has gone
into business in the City of Mexico. As
the Judge speaks Spanish. French, Ger.
man and English, and has a profound
knowledge of the laws of both countries.
besides an extensive acquaintance
throughout Mexico, combined with his
great natural ability, we may expect our
late fellow townsman 10 succeed 10 a
wondorful extent in his nca sphere of

II is so seldom that anything manly
or bold emanates from our national gov.
crnment, in our dealings with foreign
nations, that we are doubly pleased with
the stand taken in regard to the return
Of the Lasker resolutions. In this mat.
ter IT is evident that Bismarck thought
he could put an indignity upon the
American people, with perfect impunity,
and thereby add to his own personal
prestige and influence In Germany, as
he and Herr Lasker were political enc
mics. In attempting this he has suffered
a severe rebuff from the American Gov.
ernmcnt, and has not been sustained by
the mass OF the German people. For
once. at least, he has mistaken his pow
ers, and has been completely unhorsed.
In his diplomatic attack. Tho Lasker
episode has neither yielded Bismarck
additional power nor fame.

When Augustus Caesar assumed the
imperial purple he caused to be promul.
gated decree that the Roman Empire
was then great enough in power and ex-
tent Of territory; that thereafter no wars
should be waged for conquest; that the
Atlantic Ocean, the Danube, the Flu.
pirates and the Pillars Of Hercules, on
their respective sides, should forever
bound the Roman dominions, and that
thenceforth the only policy of the Senate
and Emperors should DO to promote tho
internal peace and prosperity Of the Ro-
man people. 1t was supposed that no
outside force would ever dare again at.
tack or provoke to war country which
had subjugated all of the known world,
worth having. This policy was put in
execution, and from that period Gibbon
dates the decline and Fall OF the Ro.
man Empire" Attacked by external
foes and torn by internal strifes, the
huge structure was gradually worn away.
And SO IL has always been throughout
history. A people, to prosper ut home,
must make themselves known and felt
abroad. The human mind demands nc.
tivity for its powers, and those powers
must be kept in constant use or they
will decay and cease to exist. Centuries
ago the Chinese adopted a policy Of ex-
clusion towards other nations. China
took no steps to protect her foreign In.
terests. and looked with utter indiffer-
ence on what the people Of other coun.
tries thought and did. She devoted
herself entirely to her own internal
affairs. The result was that the minds
and natures OF the Chinese people became
dwarfed and stagnated, and both physi-
cal and mental deterioration ensued. So
that China is to-day a national imbecile.
The United States have grown and pros.
percd more by means Of its conquests
and purchases Of new territory than by
any other means. Aud as long as we
continue to reach out and enforce our
peculiar governmental ideas on the
world, and enlarge the mission OF our des'
tiny, 80 long will we grow and develop.
and gain fame and power. But, when.
ever, like Octavius, we shall conclude
that our country is big and great enough
and that We care for nothing but our
own internal affairs. that moment will
date the beginning Of our deterioration
as people.

Tug present surplus Of rain may be
rather inconvenient at the moment. but
its benefit will not be confined to the
present year. For two or three years to
come. very slight rainfalls will cause ex-
cellent crops, on account Of the sub soil
being 80 thoroughly charged with water.
And the gain in the flow Of our artesian
wells will be Of priceless value. For
quite number of years to come, the
necessity Of irrigation will be reduced to
a minimum, and, altogether, this
thorough soaking OF the soil is jast what
Is wanted, although eastern visitors may
for the time being suffer disappointment
at the want Of sunshine. and be inclined
to manifest incredulity. when we en-.
deavor to beguile them as Of yore, with
our never-ending and extravagant praise

As MIGHT have been expected, the Re-
publicans in the United States Senate
haverefused to do that justice to Gen
eral Fitz John Porter which every senti-
ment OF honor demanded they should
render to patriotic and long suffering
officer, whose only crime has been that
he is Democrat. Our dispatches show
that the Senate committee to whom was
referred the bill for the Generals relief,
reported it back by amending it SO as to
strike ont the provision for his restora-
tion "to all the rights, titles and priyi-
leges of rank held by him at the time of
his dismissal" This will necessitate the
return OF the bill to the House, and thus
the rights of man who has done no
wrong continue to be denied him.

IT is very encouraging fact to Los

been no apparent diminution in the

year were determined to come to Los
