The Trans-Pacific Cable Bill.
ll:e interruption gjven to tl.e ravage of the
Pacific cable bill Senator Dawes' motion recall
ing it from ifie Inc about ten davs ago, after
having tasked lc Senate without a dissenting
vote, is one of tl.o.? trick, of legislation that
arc inexcusable, and peciallj when the grounds
for Pueh action are tolely la the interest of a
foreign rival cable company. If the association
of gentlemen asking for this legislation iras an
irresponsible one, if it was composed of men
who meant merely speculation, and were witb-
1 out earital, tbe reason for tbe obstacles that bare
! . ..f...r ... i. - ;e i t..t

when we find they are some of tbe largest capital
ists in the country, combined with experience
and enterprise euch as is seldom brought together,
vc are atonisbed that the Senate allowed the
interference of Mr. Dawes without a reason
ntronger than the one of serving Cyrus Field,
the paid agent of British capitalists.
Prominent in this Pacific Cable Company is
Cclso Caar Moreno, a gentlemen of large nnd
extensive experience in Asiatic affairs, and who
has done more to call the attention of the Ameri-
! can people to the trade of that vast region than
any other man that ever studied the subject.
This was the judgment of Messrs. Sumner,
j Seward, and IiurHngamc, as well as all of the
leading papers ot tne country tnat were attracted
by bis wonderful resources in a pamphlet be
wrote in 1863 on American interests in Asia, in
which he did more to quicken and expand our
ideas of that great commercial point than any
writer that ever touched upon too subject. He
has spent the greater part of his life traveling
through the countries of the Asiatic continent
and islands, and having a full knowledge of their
language, customs and resources he is the best
available authority we can rely upon for the
introduction of American interests among tbem.
He is full of tbe moot valuable information, and
manifests tho most indomitable anxiety for open
ing up the inexhaustible wealth of that wonder
ful country. He has traveled from tho Black
Sea to the Yellow Sea, from Ceylon to the coun
tries beyond the Himalaya Mountains, from
Hong-Kong and Shanghai to the regions in the
interior of China; he has traversed kingdoms and
provinces, visited capitals and seats of govern
ments, seaports and centers of trade, and has
come to this country with a knowledge of tho
Asiatic continent acd its populations that de
serves, and should command, the highest respect
of every American citizen and especially Sena
tors and members of Congress. This is the class
of man that has been knocking at tho door of
Congress for the last seven years with a proposi
tion to utilize the vast trade of Asia in the in
terest of American industry. He simply asks
for the right " to cncour3ge"and promote tele
graphic communication between America and
tho Asiatic continent." Associated with him are
euch millionaires as Alvinza Hay ward, the cele
brated miner and capitalist; General John l
Miller, the president of tho Alaska Seal Company;
Leland Stanford, ex-Governor of California and
the president of the ' Central Pacific railroad;
Mark Hopkins, treasurer of the Central Pacific
railroad ; James C. Flood, ono of the bonanza
kings ; William Irwin, the present Governor of
California; O. II. Lagrange, superintendent of
tho U. S. Mint; "Win Alvord, vice president
Bank of California; John P. Jackson, partner of
Senator Jones ; Andrew Bryant, present Mavor of
San Francisco; and John lei ton, leading lawyer,
uii ut vuiuuiuia, unu ouv.il ucu us ucury full
ing, banker, and Julius Friedman, leading capita
list, of Portland, Oregon ; with Wni. Barnet
Phillips, and Henry O'Kielly, projector, construc
tor and organizer of the Atlantic, Lake and Mis
sissippi Telegraph Range in the year 1845.
These aro some of the men who stand ready to
promoto this project with tho knowledge and
enterpripe of Captain Moreno for the promotion
of Amcflean commerce, - and as preliminary
thereto, they propose, with the permission of the
Government, to lay an ocean cable from the west
ern coast of this continent to Asia, so as to re
lieve merchants and business men in the Pacific
States from the exaction of the present British
Cable Company, which, over their line, necessi
tates them to travel 25,000 miles in order to
communicato by cable with Australia, Japan, or
China, whereas with tho cable proposed by this
pacific Company the distanco would be reduced
to 6,000 miles, thus saving three-fourths of tho
distance, cost and time now expended. ,
The amount of money spent every year by our
Government and peoplo for cables over the
English line to Asia is larger than tho interest at
seven per cent, of the capital required to build
the 6ub-Pacific line. This, independent of any
other consideration, should have induced Congress
long ago to have given the right to lay an Ameri
can Pacific cable. But when we consider the
vast fields of wealth that will be open to us.
that it will put us in friendly competition for the
foreign trade of Japanese and Chinese seaports,
which now amounts to the enormous sum of two
thousand millions, not including the internal
commerce of these two vast empires, we are at a
loss to understand the American statesmanship
that stands in the way of an enterprise capable
of guaranteeing such results. Tho proposition
of tho Pacific Cable Company involves no experi
ment, but a work of easy achievement, and what
is strongly in its favor, the company represents
enough combined wealth, if necessary, to build
the entire line.
In view of all these facts, and many more,
familiar to every Senator and member of Con
gress who has given the slightest attention to the
subject, wo ask, in all reason, why American
enterprise receives so little encouragement? It
is certainly not because of any objection or pre
judice of the people, but, we fear, because there
is entirely too much legislative duplicity at
work in the council of the nation because wo
suficr-eurselves to become tbe victims of foreign
capitalists instead of their rivals. How long is
this to last? How long aro such men as Cyrus
Field to dictate terms to Congress? Three years
ago be found an easy instrument in Senator Cas
serly, of California, to carry out his designs;
this Congress New England supplies his remedy
in Senator Dawes ; but we cannot believe that
tbe motion he has interposed will amount to
anything more than a temporary delay, and that
such Senators as Howo of Wisconsin, Mitchell
and Kelley of Oregon, Jones of Nevada, Booth
of California, and other representative men of
all sections, led off by the intrepid Sargent, will
suffer their interest to be trifled with any longer,
but that they will demand, in tbe name of tbe
whole people that American enterprise and
American capital shall have some show, as far
as American.lcgislation can help them, in com
peting for the bidden treasure of the Orient.
'.' Spring Love Making.
Oh ! the soft, sweet language of love! as iu
the
etilly night we bear its gentle murmur.
44 Dost think spring hath come, Henri?''
44 Yes, dearest Consatina, I feel that 1 may as
sure you that this warmthness will be no more
dispelled by the wind. But why so strange a
question?"
44 Because I fain would clothe my nether ex
tremities in silken covering; were I assured of the
continuance of the present balmincss. To thee,
who art so good and wise, your Consatina looks
for counsel in r.ll thirg3 affecting her health and
happiness."
Believe me, they are dear to mo, sweet one,
and 1 am proud that tbou shouldst deem me wor
thy to advise thee on a matter of so grave import.
1 am confidrnt thou has naught to fear in making
the change thou desirest. To prove the strength
of my conviction, I have but to inform yon that
only yesternight I laid aside me flannel."
44 Oh, Henri!' she gasped, clinging convuls
ively to bini; 44 was it not premature? Horrid
fears assail me. What if thou ebouldat take cold
and de-i ! Oh, me protector ! me ah "
44 Calm thyself, me angel ! There is no danger.
All will be well."
44 I shall hope for tho best. Henri, and pray
nightly that no rude blast shall return to chill
thy frame and place in jeopardy thy precious life.
What would silk stockings be to Consatina wert
tboa gone? a hollow mockery, a stuffless fa
bric." Then they clinched, and we left. Brunswick

A curious lawsuit is being conducted at Toulouse,
in France. An oyster-opener, whilst opening a few
oysters for immediate consumption, found in one of

claimed that ho had bought shells, juice, oysters and
everything ; but the oyster-opener alleged that he
had only bought tbe oysters. Tbe question of owner

A Virginia (Nev.) paper of Aug. 8d savs : 44 If
the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the
truth about tbe growing evil of opium smoking
could be laid bare for the inspection or tbe really
respectable citizens of Virginia, it would be simply
appalling. The opium smokers held high carnival
in Chinatown last night; not less than one hundred
and fifty white persons of both sexes the majority
of them being members of the respectable class of
our citizens were under tbe influence cf tbe deadly
drug. Reposing in rude bunks or on the floor,
their souls wrapped in forget fulness of everything
but tbe frightful influences of the moment they pres
ented an appearance or degradation to bring a blush
of shame to the most hardenced. The habit is con
stantly growing in this city, and it seems altogether
impossible for tbe authorities to stop it, if indeed
they are inclined to mako any eSorts in that direc
tion."
Ticuborne Again. It appears that we are to
have another - Tichbourne infliction. The Mel
bourne correspondent of tbe Ballarat Star writes :
" Arthur Oiton, the real, the veritable that
legal myth of whom so many were incredulous,
has been found, and Ticbborne bonds are up a
gain. By tbe time this is perused by your readers
the news will have been cabled to England, to
gladden the heart of the conSnee of Newgate, and
the ho!der9 of Ticbborne debentures will have
fumbled the crisp documents in their cash-boxes,
and have speculated how they shall expend their
prospective fortuness. To the Melbourne agent of
the Claimant belongs tbe credit of tbe discovery,
for after intent fossicking he has discovered, or be
lieves he has, tho real Author Orton, who has been
for many years under the alias of Alfred .Smith, an
inmate of tbe lunatic asylum on tbe banks of the
Parramatta River, within fifteen miles of Syd
ney." Meteorological Tables. On this topic the New
York Times remarks as follows :
Commonly received notions of meteorology are
often surprisingly inaccurate. Perhaps nine people
out of ten, if asked whether most rain fell annually
iu New York or London, would reply unhesitatingly
in the latter. But tbe figures are 25 inches for Lon
don and 43,50 inches for New-York. Tbe two ex
tremes of considerable cities are St. Petersburg and
Vera Cruz respectively ; the mean rain fill in the
first being 17,05 and the second 183 inches per
annum. In San Francisco, despite its "rainy season"
the average fall is precisely that of London. It is
said that the heaviest amount known to be received
by any part of this world drops on the Kbasia Hills
to the north-west of Culcutta, and is equal to 600
inches annually. Rarely or never does rain descend
on Zahars, and no day passes without it on Juan
Fernandez. There is not tbe least doubt that the rain
fall is measurably within the power of man to con
trol; so that if tbe once famous Prof. Esft was
mistaken as to means, he was quite right as to ends
Several splendid estates in tbe West-Indies have bean
almost ruined by cutting down tbe timber on tbem,
while in tbe upper provinces of Egypt where rain
was abso'ntely unknown a few yers ago, there are
now frequent showers as a result of tbe twenty mil
lions of trees planted by Mehemet All Even tbe
desert, it is now known, can be made to blossom as
tbe rose by simply observing and copying the laws
