tJPWM 'Jlg'-AUV WM rriUlB OIR UEi.lXiB rORrF.SFONtllENT 1 January 2S, 1879. When Mr. HI. vino speaks he awakens echoes, no matter ou hat subject. Some say it is because of his peculiar Henry flay magnetism, but 1 appreheud his magnetism has hut little effect ou the press that re-echoes his speeches.

1 think it is rather his a Idress i iu selecting subjects of broad intenat-J H.s hist speech a as on a subject of the broadest interest; it was iu favor of encouraging American Commerce. He arged that the vast sums of money annually expended in keeping up a useless and expensive navy wtre Hast ed; aud that if a portion of this money were appropriated to building up a commercial marine it would do much, indirectly, to give us real navy strength in thousands of trail'd aud hardened seamen, who would be available iu time of war. He urged the loppingj oiT of the many useless and ornamental attachments of the navy, the marine crops, and snpeiRuous officers, aud lie showed by statistics that onr navy has a large excess of exjiensive officers as coniared ith the British and Frenchnavies. He showed tic we have in ouruavy one officer to every three aud a half men, that this Uiuh us disproportion a asannually increasing by the addition each year of 50 graduates from the Naval Academy to the already over-crow ded ranks of the officers. He explained that we paid the officersof the Xavy over $1,990, GOO annually, while the pay of the seamen, commanded by them, amounted tocr.ii .2.300, 009; that we maintained five ex-pe s'v; sail'ngsqnadrons, composed of harmless old fashioned ships, to protect a commerce that had long since departed.

Iu ther comparison with the British Xavy he showed that two navy yards answered for that gigantic establishment, while we had navy yards at Portsmouth, Philadelphia, Washington, Norfolk, Charleston, Pensacola and Mare Island. The Xavy influence is powerful in Washington, it has ramifications in society, it has friends in Congress, it is snppo ted by political interests, for curt, a eastern members of Congress hold their scats by virtue of the navy yards iu their several districts. Others have sons and sons-in-law, fathers and fathers-in-law, mothers and mothers-in-law who derive their subsistence and social position directly or indirectly from the navy. Observe the reply of Senator Beck to Senator Blaine. Senator Beck's son-in-law is pay-matter of tlie Marine Corps, salary So (W0 per annum.

Any child must know that the strength of our defence is in the sea. We have absolutely no one to fear in this hemisphe-re. Combined Europe would not think of attacking us ou our own soil. But either the German, British, French or Norwegian Navies would make it very uncomfortable for our seajiort cities, if they should sail down upon us before wc had time to plant torpedoes iu the appioaohes of onr haibors. Against the navies of foreign powers we cm; oppose only ,500 seamen, 40 compartatiroly harmless shins, and 2,020 officers.

What policy can be more palpably prudent than to strengthen our Xavy. But as Air. Blaine clearly showed this cannot be effected, was never effected in the history of any navy, by building from the top downward, by graduating astronomers, French scholars', aud accomplished parlor knights for the command of ships. Sailors mustjbe made of sterner stuff, long acquaintance with the watery element, with its mysteries and variable moods, nerves strengthened and braced by long familiarity with danger can qualify men to go down to the sea iu ships. Mr.

Blaii.e's speech was in favor of American Commerce, but no policy could so directly and effectively build up a real navy, revive ship-building, and inure thousands of men in sea faring dirties and dangers. Just now the Totter cipher investigation is attracting more attention than Congress, and while it is lielieved that nothing of a startling or sensational character will be die-covered, it is already apparent that the investigation will not be ithout interest, and that it will result in disclosures of some heretofore hidden things. The long talked of war between Mr. Conk-ling and the Iresident has at last resulted in a pitched battle. It was carried on yesterday in au executive session of the Senate, hut, in all probability, it will be conducted in open Senate to-day.

Yesterday afternoon the Seuato went iuto executive session for the consideration of the appointments in the X. Y. Custom House. It was generally supposed that there would be an interesting time, and the reporters lingered near the sealed chamber, anxious to catch the first whisper of the result of the battle. When the doors were opened, it was learned that the replies of Arthur and Cornell to Secretary Sherman had been read.

These were voluminous and occupied considerable time in reading, and when they were concluded a note from tho Secretary of the Treasury wa3 read, asking that copies of the letters be furnished him. A motion that the injunction of secrecy he removed as far as the letters were concerned was agreed to almost unanimously, and copies for the Secretary, President and members of the Senate were ordered. Senator Thurman then moved that the matter be transferred from executive to open session. This met with some objection, chiefly from Mr. Hoar, but Mr.

Conkling approved it. Before a conclusion on this point was reached the Senate adjourned. The fight will certainly be renewed in executive session to-day. A caucus of Democratic Senators has been called this morning, and it is understood that they will agree on some line of action to be pursued in reganl to the New ork appointments. Senator Conkling hab said that as many as six Democrats have indicated their intention to vote with him.

C. A. S. Democratic State Central Committee. At a called meeting of the Executive Committee of the Democratic State Central Committee held in San Francisco on Saturday, the following resolution was adopted: That the members of the Democratic State Central Committee be requested to meet in San Francisco, at the Cosmopolitan Hotel, on Tuesday, March 19tb, at noon, for the purpose of calling a Democratic State Convention and appointing delegates Jjl.MMW3Vrea Wltll.T LllTUl.

She died iustantly. The Mechanics' Union at Bodie is on a strike.

They have compelled the mines to either comply or shut down. The Mono Company barricaded the mine on the 12th and the mauager was given two hours to open it or take the consequences. Senor Alberto Ducong has been appointed Collector of the Tiajnana Customhouse in Lower California This destroys the partial free zone. The new officer is putting up the tariff to the old rates. The tariff is fixed at $4.59 per 100 pounds of flour: 10 cents per pound ou sugar, etc.

A Sierra City dispatch of the 12th states: "On Tuesday it rained to the very summits. To-day it is somewhat cooler, though it rains high in the mountains. About seveu oclock this morning some 30 acres of tlie eastern side of the Sierra Buttes were loosened by the deluge of water and rushed with irresistible force to the river, carrying trees, rooks and telegraph wire and poles to the river, and for some time damming the river ith the huge mass. A petition lias been sent to United States Senator Farlev, asking attention to Folsom granite quarries, owned by the state, as furnishing suitable granite for the proposed new post-office in San Francisco. Four steamers sailed during the week from Seattle, Washington Territory, fqr San Francisco, all loaded with potatoes.

The Pima reservation, Arizona, the boundaries of which were set by President Hayes, covers twenty-five surveyed townships, and takes in the towns of Messa, Tenipa, Haydens Ferry aud the large town of Phieuix. The first wedding at Blackfoot, Dakota, occurred recently. The couple appeared before Joe Warren, the Justice of the Peace, who addressed them as follows: You, Beu Mc-theuie, and you Mrs. Jane Smith, want to be married, do you? Well, you are married, aud the man who says you are not is a liar. A mass meeting has been proposed to be held iu New York to vindicate Tihlen from complicity iu tlie cipher dispatch business.

The meeting will not occur till Congress adjourns, to give Congressmen an opportunity to be present. A Southern paper says that General Albert rike is now engaged in organizing the Knights of the Cactus, to be composed of the veterans of tho Mexican war, and the order to descend to their male children. The Chicago Inter-Ocean mentions the largest locomotive ever constructed in this country as reaching that city, it wa3 by the Fort Wayne Kailroad, on its way to the West to be used on the New Mexico aud Southern Pacific branch of the Santa Fe Railroad. It is especially intended to woik on a long, heavy grade at a point on tho Rocky Mountains. It is a ten-wheel tank engine, having eight drive-wheels and a pony truck.

The cylinders measure 18 by 20 inches, and tho driving-wheels are about 42 in diameter; tho boiler is 58 inches in diameter. It has 213 tulies, each over 11 feet long. The engine, when in working order, will weigh 118,000 pounds. A forcible attempt was made by the Bodie Mechanics Union to get George Daly, Superintendent of the Mono mine, iuto their meeting ou tlie 14th. Pistols were drawn, but he got away.

The Miners Union have agreed to protect the mine, and the strike is virtually at an end. Little Rock. February 1G. Friday night three masked men halted the mail stage three miles west of Pine Bluff and robbed the passengers, ripped open the mail bags aud rifled their contents. No clew to the highwaymen.

Victoria (B. Febroaryl5. TheSteam-sliip California, Captain Thorn, left Sitka February 10th, and arrived at Esquimalt February 14th. Much excitement prevailed in Sitka when she left, the Indians having threatened the annihilation of the whites. The citizens, armed, were awaiting their attack.

The two Indians who murdered James Brown confessed their guilt, and were surrendered to the collector, and are now on board the California en route for Portland, to he turned over to the United States District Attorney to await the action of the authorities at Washington. Three families camo down on the steamer fleeing from danger. Storekeepers are preparing to emigrate by the next steamer. Father Metropolsky and his congregation, in conjunction with the American citizens of Sitka, have petitioned Her Majesty's man-of-war, now lying at Esquimalt, to come to their immediate aid, fearful that they cannot allay the disturbances before the United States Government can send assistance. The cotton spinners at Remirement, ranee, are on a strike.

Paris, February 16. Five hundred fresh pardons of Communists are expected to be declared shortly. President Grevy, receiving a Bureau of the Council-General of Seine, pointed out the great moderation necessary so as not to alarm the provincial electors. Roumelia and Bulgaria will henceforth be rigorously separated. Governors Dondnn-koffand Stolipene will both be placed under the moderating control of Prince Labanoff, Russian Minister.

Paris, February 16. Gambetta, addressing a deputation from Belleville, to-day. declared. the Republic being now established, it was the task of tlie Republicans to make it productive and restorative. There was no longer any reason to fear obstacles raised by reactionary parties.

Try's Kibesillah Oreie-r ovo A1 iou KII OF PI ItLIt The prosperity of a people does not depend on outside Favorable circumstances as much as ou the incentive given to the industrious and enterprising by the security offered them iu the enjoyment of the fruits of their labors. For this the countries tinder the sway of the Turkish and Persian Empires furnish examples, for there see the masses of the jteople in squalid poverty, although they have a productive sol, and great natural advantages, because their possessions are at the mercy of au unprincipled government and its grasping vassals and government officials, and therefore lacking the stimulus ot security in their possessions, ei joyed by the citizens of more favored countries, tlie masses "become iadoleu xmtcntiug then.sclves with the most scanty uu-ans for timr most urgent necessities, and they cannot, if they would, obtain to a btrUcrestaie, because through the eous? jucat of enterprise, there is no demand forthtir labor, and wages are reduce 1 to a mere I tttanee.

In this favored land owe therefore our prusjtnty n. so to our r.sr.irel resources as to our form of and its in respecting the r.gh of the individual. Bat the communistic ideas and ten beginning to themsrires ra -re and more strongly among us, it carrie-l into effect, would pr-niuce iu the end a state slniiarto tbut now experienced in th-se eusteru and by taking away the incentive for aud enterprise, would ro'ure the to the same squalid and misery. Bat for tlie parpiseof providing this needed protection of individual rights as well at home as abroad we need a government, and its expenses have in turn to be borne by the iu lividual members of the commonwealth. One tf the greatest problems of government science is to restrict government to its necessary functions ordv, and to avoid making it an engine of oppression against classes or sections for the benefit of the few, at the rpense of the many, aad to distribute this burden of expense among the individual mcmlwrs of the commonwealth in the most equitable manner by a proper system of taxation.

But as the question will ever beau open one, liow far the functions of vemnient should be extended in undertaking works or enterprises of a public nature, beneficial to the whole community alike, even t. lieu it is necessary to pledge the faith of the commonwealth adectcd, fortbeexpensetobe incurred therefor, bo the incurring of bonded indebt-canesqby Municipal, County, State or Federal government i'll be urged as necessary from time to time. But this lias been and will again and again be made a terrible engine of oppression amounting iu many instances almost virtually to partial confiscation of individual property rights unless checked by wholes inie const tutional provisions. "Without such check communities like some individuals will heedlessly involve themselves in icV, rn 1 prostrating the ener-giesof the individuals by unbearable burdens, will in the end involve the rich and poor in one common ruin. We therefore express ourselves strongly ia favor of a constitutional provision prohibiting any commonwealth or municipality from incurring any bonded in debtedness witlu ut an affirmative two-third vote at a special election for that purpose, by theelectors of tlie affected commonwealth, Town, City, County or State, as tlie case may be.

IttlETSIGAit. The Sacramento Valley Agriculturist ia speaking of this industry, says: We cannot help but think that no industry would pay better under good manage, ntent, or be of more general good to the eu tire country than the establishment of several sugar lieet factories in this country. More than anything else tlie farmer needs is a cash yielding crop. There where the beet Bugar industry will help the fanner in more than one way. Beet fields yield from fifteen to twenty tons of beets per acre, which means from 130 co $80 cash, The top3 are at least au equivalent to half ton of the best hay; each field which yieldi fifteen to twenty tons of beets in cash value, will yield twelve tons of pumice of those beets at a feeding value of at least two and half tons of hay.

This most valuable cattlefeed ought to go back to the beet raisers who can well afford, after making $d0 or S0 per acre iu cash, to feed this pumice to their milch cows and young stock and thus lay a sub stantial foundation to prosperity. The beet pumice feed with hay will give most valuable manure and plenty of it, aud whuu even tually the sugar factories are located in the country villages where their propel place is, and the farmer has, besides the advantages here enumerated, also the advantage of tab ing scum from the sugar work to his field: then and then only has he reached the point at which he can justly say sugar beet grow ing enriches the land. Then tlie European proverb will be applicable "The more beets the more meat, the more grain and the more of the three the more money. A kiln costing $1,000 will dry from twen ty to thirty tons of beets in twenty-fonr hours. Five and a quarter tons of good beets properly dried will make a ton of dry beets, containing half a ton of unrefined sugar, and dried beets will remain good for several years.

There is much land in this valley better calculated for the culture of sugar beets than anything else, and by the co-op eration of Grangers sugar beet factories can be established aud so conducted as to be nost highly remunerative. Let the matter le taken under consideration, and we hope our futerprioing Grangers will take hold of the matter and see if they cannot go to work iu this matter. ri.
