1'RPOVWYUENT OF THE iSlS915IPI ate
-IVER. m
In 187i the United States Senate ap- g
V, olted a committee on transportation de
uotMe to the seaboard, consisting of h4
. alloven members, four Republicans and o
riee Democrats, and of which Senator tý
dom of Minnesota was chairman.
committee was authorised to "sit at
places as they may designate dur- I
the recess and to send for persons gi
d papers." vI
i: Under this authority meetings were t
iheld by the committee at many of the pi
rioncpaL cities of the United States, at
and an immense amount of valuable in-. b
t formation was obtained and embodied or
no1f their report to the Senate, covering, 01
nearly fifteen hundred pages. su
,Abs the result of their labors they re- v,
.ommend to the consideration of Con- C
g s four water routes of oommunioa- Io
Ion between the nterior and the sea
board, designated as the "Mississippi fs
oute," "Northern route," "Central
'"oute," and "Southern route." We it
all ast present confine ourselves to P'
. Mississippi route. Of this the com- ti
ailttee say: "In the opinion of the hi
alitttee no individual or company bh
'should be allowed to exercise any ex- q
elusive right upon a natural navigable al
,highway of commerce within the juris
-d.rtion of te United States. It is the A
:alduty of the goyernment to maintain un
restricted freedom of commerce upon
,such waters. Any act of an individual or ti
,corporation tending to obstruct or v
blockade such highways, is an act of tt
ostility to the commerce of the coun- U
y, and demands such action on the C
of the Government as will offectu- vi
y prevent its continuance." it
#FProm this it is obvious that the com- of
otte mean that this great water thor- ic
hfare, draining with its tributaries hi
kt vast region between the Allegha- it
on the east and the Rocky Moun- p
s on the west, known as the Missis
i Valley, with its outlets in the Gulf to
Sexio, should be owned exclusively ti
the Nalion, and should constitute 01
r a highway o commerce and l
iLravetfree to all sections of the great ti
Rtepublic, and unembarrassed by regu- r
lat ions or tolls of any corporation or ti
ateauthority. These considerations. II
the committee suggest, impose the high- a
at oblegationse on the General Govern
r proesed at once to improve its
ition, and to protect States, towns t
|* odividuals romn its devastatinga
w; aeoomplish this let Congress ap- I
lr4Otete annually twenty millions of
4ehr to be expended in repairing, en
by; ug and building new levees, and to I
heontlnued until the whole work is
.pleted from Cairo to New Orleans,
i. further if necessary.
The amount of money required to ac
-.oomplish this great work may reach one
,hundred millions of dollars, but this
-amouat expended amongst our own
-people. who are begging for employ
;ment whereby to obtain bread for their
etarvlng faromlies, would do more at the
. h aton proposed by the political
of the country since the warr
Au to the lands to be redeemed from
pand from over flow by this system,
be difflult, it not impossible,
igurea to estimate their value,
to the Government the increase
ootton alone, as an
ot.f a $be old
remone s
of peo~eotd t ri :1n ,: sea
btone of the Rspublio and shall heartily b
favor a system of improvements under t
the auspices of the General Govern- ~
ment that will be a guarantee of its pa
ternal care and protection to every part t
and portion of its dominion, assuring t
the common interest of all, and proving s
its great value in the trying hour of t
need. d
It is now well understood that an ex- a
tra session of Congress will be called at f<
an early day, and if the Southern people a
are alive to their own interests they will s
see that their Representatives will look
to this matter immediately. No time o
should be lost. The country is now al- Ii
most pauperized, and its industries par- t
alyzed, and gloom and despondency d
brood like a mighty nightmare over the s
whole land. To wait longer in the vain s
hope--Micawber like-that something a
will turn up, is only to make our de- t
struction more certain. If the South fl
wants assistance, she must ask it at the
hands of the General Government, the t
only power on earth that can relieve p
her. If we do not ask, we shall be o
certain not to receive, and whilst press- g
Ing our own necessities, let us show our t
appreciation of the requirements of i
other sections of the country, and let l
our Representatives in Congress meet a
them in the same liberal spirit extend- 9
ed to us. i
The treasure of this great nation is
the common property of all its people t
and should be .used for their common i
benefit, regardles of Isectional lines. a
To delay the relief so earnestly doe- c
manded by our necessities would be an i
act of cruelty on the part of the richest a
government in the world, and of stupid- t
ity and blind folly on the part of the 1
Representative who favored it.
What we want now in the councils of I
the nation is live men, who can and will l
be heard. Instead of the senseless
clamor about retrenchment and reform,
and the bitter vituperation engendered
by party strife,let us hear in glowing and
eloquent terms appeals for our relief.
With the Representatives of the South
united and earnestly advocating a sys.
tem of improvements under the oare
and protection of the General Govern
ment, we shall have a response that will
gladden the hearts of our distressed and
dejected people. We may reasonably
hope that during the term of this extra
session of Congress an appropriation of
twenty millions ,may be secured for
levee purposes.
Let a commission be appointed by a
majority vote of both Houses of Con
gress, or by the President with the ad
vice and consent of the Senate, to con
trol and manage the money thus ap
propriated, to let contracts under the
advice of competent engineers, and to
be required to render at the opening of
I every session of Congress a full account
of their proceedings. The commission
should be removable at any time by a
vote of a majority of the two Houses of
Congress, and be ineligible to the same
office forever thereafter. It is believed
- that this would effectually guard against
I favoritism or fraud.
i We appeal to the people to speak out
in behalf of this great measure through
public meetings and the press. Let
the voice of their representatives be
heard, and the law-makers of the land
be compelled to give ear to their re
Squirements. An earnest united effort is
all we need to guarantee success.
AN UNPjRECEDENTED POLITICAL
EVENT. in
A remarkable incident has occurred in
the political world. The oldest, most in- br
veterate and most avaricious politician in P,
this country has resigned the position of 'a'
United States Senator. .This is Simon
Cameron, aged seventy-eight, but still
vigorous, lively and uncompromis- re
ing in his long practiced virtues
of partisan fidelity and unscrupu- in
lous tenacity in ways which he tb
has trodden for half a century, all tend- th
ing to the advancement of his political, ta
personal and family fortunes.
Simon is perhaps the last, he is cer- or
tainly the oldest, of that class of poll- *t
tilcans which has always existed in this or
country, who have made of politics a
lucrative trade, capitalizing therefor
t their partisan virtues and services, and R_
- reaping rich rewards in the way of con
r tracts, jobs and partnerships with pub- .
lie officials having large sums to expend j
- and patronage to distribute. 1i
With limited old fashioned school p
s attainments, without any advan- 8
s tages of education or training in
g any profession, he embarked in
early manhood in this sort of
º- political trading, and through politi
tf cal relations and influences managed to
.- obtain large contracts for public works t
,o in his native State, which, about a half r
is century ago, was seduced into.canal dig
i, ging and other public works that
swamped the finances and credit of the
c- State and brought on her the reproach
ie of repudiation, and made Pennsylvania
is the favorite target for the happiest
n sallies of the inimitable wit and satire
y- of Sidney Smith, and of the fiercest ob
ir jurgations of foreign investors in all the
he large capitals of Europe. But
u- if Pennsylvania was plunged I
te into disgrace and discredit by
al these large and expensive public
he works, Simon's fortunes were enor
al mously improved thereby. And
when there were no more such
>m profitable contracts in Pennsylvania,
n, Simon descended upon our city
le, and managed to bulldoze the first di
ne, rectory of the Canal Bank into giving
&se him the contract or superintendentship
an of the New Canal. Tlis proved an
old enormously epenalve work. Simon
,.9 -flgf~
Legislature of Pennsytalnt, which he
has held ever sinoe, and now by dons- A
tion inter vivos hands over to his 0
worthy son, the Don.
Simon has been Senator for over
thirty years, with intervals of interrup- s
tion to enable him to fill the office of e
Secretary of War when all the big con- .
traots were being given out, and when
displaced by Stanton he was sent
as Minister to Russia, which he
found too cold and inhospitable a
a field for his favorite pursuits; b
so he hurried back to reclaim his i
old seat in the Senate, which he has
occupied ever since. In this position
he has always proved a venomous par
tisan, a bitter sectionallst, an intense
devotee to Pennsylvania's various and
selfish policies, and an efficient repre
sentative of the jobbers, corruptionists I
and contractors who have controlled a
the politics of the Keystone State for
fifty years past.
Let it not be imagined, however, that
this resignation of Simon has been A
prompted by any change in the nature t
of the man, or satiety of avarice and
greed of power and pelf, or by any of
those philosophic views and motives -
which drove Diocletian to his cabbage
garden or Charles the V. to the Convent
of Yuste. Not even the feebleness 9f
great age has moved him to such self
abnegation.
Paternal pride, a desire to perpetuate
the Camoronlan dynasty, has alone
prompted this abdication. His
oldest son, having so suddenly
concluded the first chapter of his
political career by the refusal
of Hayes to retain him as Secre
tary of War, naturally hankered after
his father's perpetual seat in tho'Sen
ate, and grow impatient of the great
longevity of the sturdy old sire, whose
best and longest contract appears to
have been the lease of physical and po
litical vitality which he secured some
fifty years ago.
This son succeeds. A sturdy, self-reli
ant and energetic man, with all the
physical and intellectual qualities of
his father, and with some virtues which
he did not inherit from that parent.
Despite some unfavorable indications
given whilst Secretary of War, and a
partisan of the Grant administration,
we have heard from persons who are in
timate with Don Cameron Lthat he is a
man of far more liberal spirit and
broader views than his father, and that
his course towards the South will be in
harmony with that of Mr. Hayes,
whose nomination at Cincinnati he was
largely instrumental in effectiag.
We published a paragraph yesterday
giving the names of the surviving vet
erans of the war of Texan ludepend
deneo. There were but four surviving
signers of the Declaration of Inde
pendence, which was issued in 1835.
Nearly every day we meet on our streets
a hale and hearty gentleman, hardly
entitled to be called a veteran, who was
the captain commanding the squad
which captured Santa Anna after the
battle of San Jacinto, in 1836. This is
t Captain Silvester, whose claim to the
honor of this capture was long ago
t recognized by General Houston and
Santa Anna himself. Captain Silvester
is a very robust specimen of a veteran.
Long may he live I
NOTES.
-A remarkable decrease of pauperism is le
ported from Manchester, England, the numbsr O
of pavpezs having been 1,6J33 in 1870, and 4011
in 1876.
-The expense of constructing the different
branches of the now subterranean railway in
Paris, which will be twenty feet b neath the sur
face, is estimated at 197,000,000 francs.
Fdieen factories in Sweden are now engaged
in producing a cheap non-explosive oil from ti
wood. The wood used is chiefly pine, and the wi
results thus far have been endouraging. Ii
-The average annual production of kid gloves en
in France is two and a half million dozen pairs, tir
three-fourths of which are exported. Ninety br
thousandi operatives are employed in the manu- cc
facture.
The honey of OCalifornia n3w amounts to about
one thousand tons annually more than is c n
aumed in the State, and the supply is rapidly in
creasing on the coast, from Santa Barbara south- S
ward, between the summit of the coast range
and the ocean.
-Because the Kansas OCty Times oall & the
Representatives who voted for a resolution of
sympathy for Wells and Anderson of the Louisi
ana Returning Board "a pack of d-n foolas" the
anuas Legislature proved the truth of the asser
lion, by unanimous vote, expelled all its oorres- w
pondents from the privileges of the ilcor and
galleries.
-Three new ports were opened to trade in
China in February. They are Wen-Chow, near
Poo-Chow;. Woohoo, on the River Yangtse; and B
Iohang, on the Upper Yangtee, 1000 miles from
the ses. By this set of the government the com
mercial frontier is pushed 310 miles. further up
the great river of Ohina, and into the heart of a
rich and popa'oes region. The new ports will
sustain a large trade.
-It is said that in Tasmania there is an insect
ivorous plant which grows in the crevices oc
rocky ground, is about six inches in height. -

one or two dozen small foot stalks, carrying
small discs about one-half inch in circumference.

convey it to the centre of the flower, which iosees

A Frenchman is never willing to die a sensa

, at the inquest. After the assassin had murdered
Y his wife and stabbed her friend, he resolved on
