Frwnt itt Sydney imjKjrs Arc leant that no tvalssmir bad lteen pledged by tliu Gov ernment to arty of the steam lines, al thtmgli the S yvla-ey CtiamLer of Commerce fry a MiiiimoM vole had recommended liwt a bwImhIv )4ukl lie granted to 3Ir. Hairs line on condition that it should run from Utat port via the Fijia and II o tj1u1u witfoett slopping at Xow Zealand. As we have before bliQwu, there would be a mviasr in tame to Sydney of some three days by tfee direct route over the time now occupied by lite line via Auckland. Br the route via Honolulu and the Fijis, the fAtoriect ostlle time could be made, as tbe voMek would have a straight line to run over, whereas by the route via Auck land, a detowr of about a thousand miles s made. It k imrobable that the people of 2C?w Soalii "Wales will couscnt to prant swtattlies to steamers running via New Zealand. VTe give below a telegram front AVnehiugton, dated January 10th, to tbe Chicago 7Y0?hhc, which will give ur readers nn idea of the various subsi dies proposed to be given to steam lines in die AtiaHtie attd Pacific Oceans, Moowating m tbe aggregate to $8,700,000. As bat a few days remained from our last dale to the 4th inst., when Congress -momM adjoMrn, it is doubtful if any of the suhridicr would be got through before iltat time. Tbe uicipol fntwc ia the proceedings to-day n tbe Saaate was as effort wade by those in UroaUJ ia Um ctuwohip wiWUiitw to get up tbeir bula laratiaf taewe tchetties. Senator llamsey mutoi tint tbree of time bilk, to-nit : those a-iM -ririag; uoeui Hwnaip service between Now Uriraae nad Mxtoe. between tbe United Status and Aajotiulk, tmi between the United States aad Banofii, be mete tbe special order Tor to-mor-ram. Mr. GeaMMig objected, unless his bill creatine: tbe Atari nan Mail and Ocean 1'rans porUUon Oempeay efeoeM be included. When be tool: mm Mat. abeet a dozen members en deavored M fain tbe Seer, and for a few minutes tbrrr was ao maeh oanfuitofl that the Speaker cov. Id not be beard. Some objected to making aprcial order of any of these hi As, on tbe ground 1'iM I bore km bo reajoo why they Ehoald be pnri tared bar il otter UUs on this calendar; vaiie otbaia ubjucted to giving a second hearing mt tbe eaaae tiaoe. an operation which, it was as aerted. voaid reaaH ia girieg to each tbe combined suvngtb of tbe whole. FiaaHy, a compromise was agreed on, that tbe four above mentioned bilk aboahi be made tbe special order for Friday next. There are now twelve of these steamship caboidy bilk peatbag in Congress, several or which bare received favorable consideration in commit tee. The total aooant of annual subsidies which tbeM biH draw JhMS tbe United States Treasury is aWoi $3,700,000. which turn is independent of tbe daman1 for goe ran tees for the Government ta let- mterosts on bonus. Senator Ramsey's bill to eotabfeh Earopean steamship lines is tho asm a that oSbred by General Schenck in the Hoase early ia the session. Tho subsidy asked is per aanom, to bo continued for Cfly years. Behind Ibis bill is a powerful lobby, con fident of seecess. The bill of the same Senator, reported by bim from tbe Postal Committee, to citaHtab a snM steamship line between Australia and the United States, is a combination of tho Uotbtiaj Webb interests, and is proposed as as exteasies of tbe contract at present misting with nowaday for carrying the mails betwoen Hoaotnfa asd San Francisco. The present con tract has mt fire years to run, with a subsidy of S7S.0O6 per annum. The pending bill asks an increese of this sam to $500,000 per annum, tbe j service to be extended so that the terminal points win be Metbocrae and San Francisco. Mr. Kel-lo-'j bH, wtflcb. was embraced la Ramsey's mo tion, uftborizes nail steamship cerrice between Now Orleans and .several Mexican ports. It was intredaced ia tbe Senate last session, and then referred to the Committee on Commerce. In tbe House it was introduced by Mr. Wells, of ?i!if8cri, sod referred to a select committee, who reported favorably thereon a few days ago. Its Chances for passegc are considered good by its bicsaV Thesabsidy it asks is 150,000 for ten years. Ir. Centring's bill, which he to-day suc ceeded in caking one of the, four assigned for special consideration on Friday next, is a ruaro Tjurtfr zfEur, and ii aid to hare more money in it, than all the others combined, besides a power ful lobby to press it passage. It provides for incorporating a company to construct twenty slesosbips, ship yards, etc., to Be used in timo of war for caval purposes, having a capital stock of SlJOOtMXH). Said company is to hare power to isne bonds to the amount of 2.000,000, In terest payable in gold. The Government to pay tie same semi-annually, ths Government to en dorse tbe bonds to that effect. Besides the above, there are score of bills to relieve, en fESnrage, build cp, .and aid AH??(i2.ere? all calling for assistance from the United .States Treasury. Probably tdl cannot bo got up this session. In tbi connection it is proper to state that tbe Fresident is reported to have expressed . v 1 r ,L. ,nl1H.lc Bil)nmBi fines. in tie same catagory with land grants , TJti aid to railroad. IIo-iv to 1o It. "Wc insert an adverttsementin one issue of to-day, that plans and'suggestions for the Hotel which orir citizens are desirous should be . erected, will be received for consideration until the first of April next. flit is a proverb that " very few men are able to run a hotel," yet there are some in ourcommunity who have run one in the past, and there are more who belicvei ,wcre the chance offered, would be ready to try their skill in the management of such an establishment.- But toour appre hension, judging from the various and dis cordant opinions which have been venti lated during the discussion of the hotel project,dt appears that the building of a . i - - t ,r noiet is a rancu more reconuue openiiion than the running of one. The questions grave and .frivolous ; the contingencies probable and conjectural ; the " ifs and ands" which have started into prominence, and have been promulgated with all the gravity of settled convictions, or the K.i.forcc of accepted postulates, until every talker has proved to himself that his own views are the only sound ones, and his neighbors' supreme folly, are so numerous and irreconcilable that untying the Gor- dian knot, compared to the situation; is simplicity itself. Wc are not of those whobelicvcthat,in all cases, " in the multitude of counselors there is safety," since in matters that re quire decision and action, the multitude only produce confusion. There is informa. tiou and knowledge to be gained, and a comprehension of tho situation, by,a mul titudc of counselors; liut as is frequently proved in military matters, the more co iu sel the Commanding General takes when in a critical situation, the less successful is he in his operations, and as it happened to Bazaine at 3Ictz, the precious time in which he might have escaped being hemmed in, was wasted by the indecision arising from councils that could not agree as to what was best to be done. The wise King of the Jews, of world-wide pro verbial reputation, did not pronounce for the multitude when he asserted that the beleaguered city had been lost except for its one poor wise man, who delivered it from its enemies. So Todlcben, at Sevas topol, worked, wonders in the way of de fence that would never have challenged the attention of the world, had he been obliged to defer to. the advice and opinion of everybody in that city, who might have thought himself entitled to criticise the situation, or offer advice thereon. So, loo, but we need not multiply illustrations of the general principle, as everyone can comprehend at a glance, that neither in Sevastopol or 3Ietz, nor on any other historical occasion, has there existed such a situation as our present one the erection of a building which must be built so that every one shall bo satisfied with it, and every one's ideas be realized in its construction and arrangement. If built under such direction, the counselors may come out all right, but the same can hardly be expected of the building. There are, perhaps, some, from their knowledge or experience in the construc tion of houses; others from their acquaint ance with the business oi hotel-keeping, or information derived from general ob servation, who, if disposed to contributo their ideas, may oiler valuable suggestions and perhaps available plans. If there are such, the Committee will be glad to hear from them, and to regard any " opinion " that may seem worthy of consideration ; and on the other hand, we suppose if auy citizen outside of those whose business is the drafting of buildings, has any " valu able suggestions" to make, that he will not withhold them, because he cannot exchange them for cashs "Wood ami KartlMiuakc. As tve have walked around the streets during the last week, there has been very little to attract tho attention. Sugar commences to arrive steadily, and the only excitement wc have been able to observe is that arising from a sale of a small lot of statuary aud vases ; the sale of which happening on two evenings of the week, furnished the chief topic of con versation for the two succeeding days. Almost everybody, therefore, whom wo have met, fell back upon the hotel, as the piece de resistance, most of them telling us what ought not to be done. It is true that each person advances his ideas of what ought to be done, at the same time demonstrating to his own satisfaction that no other idea is admissible. For our own part, we expressed an idea in our last issue, that the main buildiug should be of stone, as giving both a more substantial appear ance as well as setting the example for more permanent improvements thati those wc have animadverted upon for some weeks past. "Wc are not aware that our article was "labored," as the Advertiser says it" was. It did not cost us much labor; being in terested in the matter, and wishing to give our ideas as they had occurred to us after a good deal of reflection, and we would modestly say, after having heard much conversation on the subject in the locali. ties where men most do congregate, we wrote currentc calamo nd rather,thought it was, quite an easy affair? not at all la bored. Our remarks brought out a rejoinder, which is very desirable, certainly. "We might take the oppportunity to remark that it seems to have been written by some one interested in the lumber trade; - but this would be an impoliteness' towards our brother quill jvhtch we shall riot be gnilty of, but merely express our idea jhat ho is devoting his talents, capital and la bor to the support of that branch of busl an "m to their gratitude; and, we do not think it wrong to savitto no inconsiderable rerau- .nerationifrom those engaged in the busi ness. fgr a He says, 'that " one short monthago but few among lis could have been found who would not have conceded that this plan (stone) was, on the whole, the most pre ferable one to follow in the proposed pub lic improvements. Now, however, it is timeless to disguise the fact that public pinion in favor of stone structures in these Islands has received a shock from 'rvhich it will not soon recover." Because there was a shock of an earthquake " there will always remain a feeling of insecurity for the safety not only of our property but of our lives." Now, we are beginning to think that our neiglibor is aspiring more and more to the sensational. First, to be sold on comet, which some over-credulous and not very correct mathematician predicted would knock this mundane sphere int " cocked hat " half a dozen years ago, and then to become entirely demoralized at the occurrence of an earthquake of more than usual severity, and to attempt to dis courage the erection of stone,.brick or con crete buildings because we might have another still heavier at some future time, looks very much like it at least. Surely this shock, which has frightened our friend and which he insist has so fright ened his friends, did very little damage here (none, in fact, "to spsak 6f,) to any building whatever. Now, for the past fifty years, and wc do not know for a how much longer pcriodthis is the heaviest shock of earthquake felt on this Island. Shall wc, then, because once in fifty or a hundred and fifty years these things occur on a scale to frighten people, but at the same time do no damage, cease to uuna substantial stone or brick "buildings, which when once built will last for ages without material re pairs, and build, instead, wooden struc tures which will require from the time they are built, repairs, and which in few years will become uninhabitable barns ? "Wc think not. It is just as rea sonable to suppose that the people of New York and Boston, and certainly San Fran cisco, should cease to erect the splendid stone buildings which are being constantly erected in those cities and build in wood, as that we should do the same. They have lately been frightened by earthquakes, and if experience goes for anything, the people of the latter city have much more cause to anticipate disaster on this score than we have. Perhaps if the people who have such misgivings in regard to sub stantial structures here, had been in San Francisco in 1808, the' would have strongly recommended tearing down the Custom House, 3Iint aud other large struc tures and replacing them with wood. We believe they would in that case have been looked upon by the good people of that city as little less than lunatics. Their ad vocacy of wood here is no more reason able. Xlic War. Before the next mail arrives which we hope will bring intelligence that peace has been definitely declared between Germauy and F ranee, it may interest our readers briefly to review a war which, for magni tude of proportions, bitterness of contest, and surprising results, has few equals, if an', in history. To correctly understand the causes which led to this war, and the spirit which has animated its conduct, it is necessary to go back to the first decade of the present century, when Germany lay bleeding at the feet of France; when every German Capital witnessed the tri umphant entry of French armies; when Germany was pieced and parcelled out ike a confiscated fief or an escheated farm, at the beck of the conqueror, as well-earned guerdons among the confed erate or allied princes who followed his banner ; when the humiliation, suffering and spoliation which Germany underwent at the hands of France, were something almost incredible. Peace came in 1815, but not oblivion ; and the. laurels of that peace rested on English aud Russian brows, while Germany was left to crawl out from under her ruins as best she might. Fifty-five years of rest, all the blandishments of peace, all the progress of civilization, all tho interests of com merce, all the theories of social science, have not been able to efface the terrible memory of those ten years of French su premacy in Germany. Stumbling over the ruins caused by the French occupation, worried by in ternal" rivalries, hampered by external complications, and groping its way through political darkness, one State arose above the chaos of German affairs, and through its patience, vigilance, perse- crence, and boldness of initiative, took tho lead in the national councils. Then arose the slogan of German Unity, with clear and clarion notes, and -the magic of the word threw a glamour over the means by which it was sought to be accomplished. The strength of that leading State grew apace, and Prussia was looked upon, and through her admirable administration prepared herself to be the coming avenger of Germany. Now, that the precipitancy and infatu ation of the late- Emperor of the French have turned events out of their legitimate sequence, it may be idle to speculate upon what that sequence might have been, had France possessed her soul with patience, had she prepared herself as Germany was preparing, had she not underrated her foe of '"overrated ' herself. France had her memoricsas well'as regards Germany, but they were glorious memories. They were calculated to stimulate to deeds of individual heroism in the moment of bat tle ; but such memories generally fail to nspire that caution and minute attention to detaihr'wh'ich provide commissariat chests, and parks of artillery; which train the tactician and drill the sddier."; -uch memories, ift.long continrrd unbroken, are but too aptto make haders., supine, and subordinates arrogant. - France had ample noticiin the fate of Denmark and of Austria, of the coming duLbetween.thetwo natons.. -.Circumstances might .delay it, ba nothing short of the Hillenium could av.-rt it.- Strong in her traditional memorie, flattered and feared as the greatest, nilitary power in Europe, France felt not tie slightest mis giving as to the result of, a duel with Germany as it then was; but the com plete unification "of that country troubled its mind, because it saw clearly that 'a united and consolidated 3ermany would never tolerate its dreans of the Rhine Provinces, and that prolably the drama of Schleswig-Holstein would be repeated under German patronige in Alsace Lorraine. It was to prevent that unifica tion that France precipitated the war. The ostensible cause was but a diplomatic pretext, and was uot. believed in cither in Franco or. Germany. In fact, the very declaration of war gives the key to the problem, when it ignores the consolidation of Germany so far as it' had proceeded, and in pitching into Prussia alone, holds out promises of favor and countenance to every German- State that would remain neutral in the fray, or foUow.the banner of F ranee. This precipitation f "France was almost as fatal to her as her own unpre paredness for the contest. It surprised and alarmed Europe and withdrew"' sym pathy from her. It brought every Ger man State, whether in or out of the Confederation, to the sde of Prussia. They all felt, instinctivdyj tho hollow ncss of the pretext, anl that the real issue was not a quarrel orer dead men's shoesj or the unimportant succession to a distant throne, hut whether live men, 'and those men Germans, should.be permitted to arrange their FatherlandHn' their own way. Prussia accepted the challenge, and Germany rose as one man, with one will and one purpose, to inculcate the salntary lesson that United Germany is sufficient for itself to protect its honor and defend its interests. Wc have all read the current descrip tions ot the events of this memorable conflict. Wc have seen France betrayed into a war for which she could really care but little except to uphold the prestige of her arms. Wc have seen how soon tho jubilant exultation with which she went into the war was changed into gloom and disaster. We have seen how" treach ery, jobbing, and corruption had impaired her military organization ; how her armies were short in numbers, in ammunition, in commissariat. But- we have also seen and it is with us a pleasure as well as justice to record" the fact, the unparal leled bravery of her soldiers, in spite of those untoward circumstances; the heroic defense of her fortified places; the stub born resistance, tbe pluck and endurance with which she has attempted, again and again, to stem the torrent of invasion and to turn the fortunes of the war. But all her efforts were unavailing. From causes just referred to, she was brought upon her knee at the very first important engage ment, and the vigilance, steady purpose and sturdy will of the Germans have kept her thus ever since. She has lost every stricken field during the war, but she has saved her honor, and at Woerth, Grave lotte, and Sedan, and many other places, the ancient inborn gallantry of the French nation has thoroughly vindicated itself. Now that the'Germans stand victorious on French soil, with Paris in their hands, there arc some who seem to think that they ought to have stopped on the Rhine, to defend their own land, or at least at Sedan. With all our aspirations after that better state "when war shall be no more," for the present, we are obliged to accept mankind as they are. A Deacon Jones or Elder Smith might possibly not follow their adversary over the fence that separates their lands and keep on thrash ing him to his own 'house, but unfor tunately the Deacon Joneses and Elder Smiths do not represent the majority of a nation, or express its opinions. It is trite but true, that no nation is greater than its average men, and the average men of Germany, no more than the average men of France, England, tho United States, or any other civilized country, are not yet up to the sublime point of self-abnegation when they would forbear to follow an enemy as far they could, and smite him as long as -he showed any re sistance, and until he sued for peace. Would .the French have stoppe'd at Cob lentz or 3Lagdebourg, had fortune favored their attack ? The " On to Berlin," gives the answer. On he moderation and prndencc of Germauy in the terras of peace now being negotiated will, probably, depend whether that peace will be genuine and lasting, or merely a temporary, hollow truce. If no humiliating element enters into the con ditions of peace, there is nothing to prevent those two great nations from hereafter progressing side by side with a better feeling and juster appreciation of each other than heretofore. rr.ETTT.jvSD Tkce The following, passage is a newspaper waif : 5f an dies, bnt nature is eternal.
