THE THTJNDEBEB ON THIS ALABAMA CLAIMS.
LONDON, May 23.-The Firnes, discussing the
Alabama elatina, says England bas equal can-o
of complaint against America. Groat Britain
resisted tho tompia'ion torecogn ze tho South,
thereby inflicting soffen ag on her own people,
Idiaobhgintr an ally, and in fact declared in
favor of tho North, and is now misunderstood
land acouaed of hostility and Goiil3hncas. Sir
[Francis Hoad communicates SOVGIUI additional
pfficial documents to provo tho assistance
rendered by America to th? Canalisa revolt in

To tho com m i it oo o ? other business and

that tao largo a piopori.Oo ol' th:? pooplo, of

the manly work from industry and the rest bo
shamed into it by their neighbors, aud our
prosperity is solved. Providence has supplied
priceless gifts; lotus U3C them by our labor
that is, m ike capital, build railroads and levoo
rivers. If the oonvoutioa oan teach this lesson
of labor to our p3jplo, it will have djno more

THE PACIFIC RAILROAD.
Tbo following is tho report made on Thurs?
day hy the Committee on tho Southern Pacific
Railroad, which was unanimously adopted amid
great entbasihsm.
Resolced, That in the opinion of this con?
vention tho iutore^ts of the whole country, es?
pecially by thopo of tho Southern States, con. i
be served by a maia trunk railroad lino from
San Diego, California, through Junction River,
Colorado, and atong tho Vallov of tho Gila,
south of that river, to El PASO, on tho Rio
Grande, and thence to a convenient, central
point noar the thirty-socoad parallel of lati?
tude oast of tho Brazos River Text*, from
which fo ider-roads should 1-ad from Sb. Louis,
Curo, Memphis, Vicksburg, Now orleans and
obher points, all of wnich foodor-roads should
have equal rights of oanectioa With tho main
trunk, with similar feeder-roads from San
Francisco and other points un the Pacific coast,
with like equal rights of connection.
Resolved, riiat tlie President of this conven?
tion ba request od to forward a copy of this re?
solution to tho President of tue United States
and to the Vice - Pr? J aleut aud bpeaaer of tho
Houso of Representa'ives, with a request that
they present the same to the two nooses ot
Congress.
Tho comraibtee, whioh was oompoBod of re?
presentatives from soventeen States, including
throe m om hers ci Congress, give the following
reasoub for the report: First. It is tho shortest
lino cooneel...ig tho Ou.f of Mexico and tho
Valley of the Miasissi pi with the Pacido coast.
Second. lb is the line, of all those now unoccu?
pied, ol' the most easy grades, and permitting
ot tho cheapest const ruction. Third, lb paseos
through a loss inhospitable and birren eo .n
try, and over more fertile and hospitable lands
than any other unoccupied route proposed.
Fourth. The line ia touched by water transpor?
tation at tbr epoixts, affording tho greatest fa?
cilities for construction, consequently hastening
and cheapening such o mstruouoa. Fifth. The
Ima will ope.i to tbs world the groat mineral re?
sources ot Arizona ao 1 Sonora, and render
more vain-ab o the stock-raising districts of
Texas New Mexico and Normern Mexico, and
thus e..joy au unrivalled traffio. Sixth. It
would luovitobiy attract numerous feeders
from Mox!co, and thus not only stimulate en?
terprise thero, but draw to our shipping ports
a greater portion-of tho bullion wmou now tecka
Europe bv hasardons conducta? and smug?
gling vessels. Seventh. It would opon u new
cotton-growing aroa in Texas. New Moxie > ard
Arizona, in the lands ot tho cotton-growing
bolt now useless for tho lank of facilities for
transportation. Eighth. " Bomb of tho roads
which would bo tr.t feeders referred to mue
not only boen projected, bot, arc already io ac?
tive course of eon ta ruction without waiting foi
government subsidy or encouragem ent.. Ninth
and la.it thoa ;h nob toast. 1 ho conjunction ol
this hue more than all else beside would en?
courage what we feel to bo the greatest neces?
sity ot the hoar-emigration and direct trade
with Europe.

gration trom Europe must be had by moans
of steamers of hoavv draught and largo ca?
pacity, plying directly between Southern ports
and Europe; bo it therefore
Resolved That in tho opinion of this Con?

thirty-second parallel of latitudo. is one of the
greatest p rts ol tho South Atlantic^coast, and
that tho railroad trom tha'j point to Augusta,
Georgia, should bo comploled as spoeaily as
possible.
Mr. Millett, in offering bis resolution, said
'bat in tho Southern States thoy mast have
immigration, and mnsb pub forth all their

Within tho past fifteen years a great chango
liad taken placo iu regard to tue vessels carry?

years n<ro thoy had wooden ships, then they
got side-wheel steamer*, but now there woro
iron propellers. And out of ninety flvo vossels
engatrcd in tho ocean trade to and from New
York, only two were sido-wheels. Tho average
tonnage of tho propellers was 2500. and fow
were below that, and au or nearly all drew nine?

thoy bad a port whom tin wat?r was twouty

Tho resolution was referred to the Commit

THREATENING Toy xi OF TUTU ENG
1,18tr COMMENTS UPON SUMNER'S
SPEECH.
Tho London papers are still harping upon
Mr. Sumner's speech. Tho Times sayest is
time that Americans should understand that
Eugland wdl resist such demands to the last
extromity. It says that "unless there be a Bot?
tled design to pick a quarrel with us, Mr. Su.n
nor'a pohoy is too preposterous to ba onter
tainod. The attempt to reawaken buried ani?
mosities is, indeed, little short of criminal; but
tho extravagant misrepresentations found ne?
cessary for the purpose affird ns Blight assur?
ances of tho destined failure of the attempt."
The Saturday Review warns thc poop!? of
tho United States against thc probable re?
sult of pattiug Mr. Sumner's views into action,
for "they will then understand that there is a
limit to the pationco of Englishmen." Tho
Toh graph drains a cap of cold comfort from
tho laot that "American Alabamas are almost
openly fitting oat for Cuba ab the precise mo?
ment when tho Americans are demanding from
England damages to be counted by scores of
millions sterling for the depredations of a
eruiscr which we perhaps oven strained the
law in endeavoring to detain." Intelligent
Englishmen are becoming seriously alarmed
at the condition of affiirs between the two na?
tions. Tho Beehive publishes tho following
letter :
Sm-Tho information respaoting the pros?
pects of English emigration, whioh 1 was re?
quested to procuro, bad been collected to the.
best of my ability, .and I was about to send it
for publication in your oolumns, bac the speech
of Mr. Sumner has had so great an effect in re?
viving American bosbility to England, and tho
continuance of friendly relations botwbon tho
two conn trios appears at this moment to bo in
suoh peril, that I fear tho promotora and or?
ganizers of English emigration cannot for the
present prudently tum their thong ats in this
direotien. Judging from what I know of tho
genera) temper of the American pooplo, and
from the language respecting Mr. Sumner's
B peech whioh I hear bold in conversation, I
should say there would be no rupture; bat, at
the same time, I hold myself prepared for a
turn of ? (Tai rs which would obligo Euglisn
residents to leave this country.
. Yours, ?rc., GOLDWIN Siam.
( ; Boston, April 18.
The Pall Mall Gosette, in its comments
apon this letter, says the tuna bas passed for
ignoring or attempting to conciliate American
hostility. "Mr. Sumoor'a chargea ought not

ford to lay aside its solf respect when dealing
with its equals." The article oonludee with

Sparta nb ur g.
The Spartan burg Gazette prints a rather
discouraging recital from Major S. C. Moons
a Urge and intelligent planter of that district -
of his labors and disaopointinents in trying to
obtain a "unod Biond" of ootton. He has been
planting and replanting from the commence?
ment, and yet tho plant dies almost as soon
as it comes up. It is impossible, therefore, OE
ho believes ?ven with good seasons-to make
more than a half crop in tnis section of coun?
try. The Major, with hundreds of others,
have had to replant his corn in lon grouud?
twico. Tl* same paper publishes tho follow?
ing summary of crop accounts fivni Mr. G. \Y.
Turner, a practical farmer, who has just made
a trip through tho upper poi non of the State
'?Wheat crops look line generally, but ma)
have boen injured by rain and hail. Com it
yet small, but looks pretty good. Cf cotton,
he says, there is only about a half a stand, and
many aie replanting. Oat crop looks thin and
meagre. Irish and sweet potatoes look fine
Borley crop good, and farmers aro feeding
thou? stock on it. Gardens aro quito backw..rd
Many old ileitis are being cleared up and fenc?
ed in, and new grounds are being cleared al
around. There is a very-general improvement
in tho system of farming, and fields and homet
aro being placed in good condition. Larg<
quantities ol tho fertilizers have bsen used."

$gr SARATOGA "A" SPRING WATER.
Saratoga, i n the fcta'eof New York, is one of the
most remarkable mineral reservoirs upon the surface
of the globe. Within an area of a mile in diameter
are some thirty mineral springs-no two of thom
alike. In rome of tho waters, Chloride of Sodium
predominates; In others. Iodine, Magnesia? Sulphur,
Chalybeate, Ito. The beneficial effects of some ol
iheso Witera, as medicinal agents, are known
throughout the civilized wo ld. Probably ono hun?
dred thousand persons visit those Springs anuna! y.
Many hundred thousand bottles of the water are
transported and coiuttuaed in the various localities
Of the country.
The SARATOGA "A" KPRINO WATER is pro?
bably the most effeotive mineral water found on
either continent. It will be observed that it has ten
per cont greater mineral properties .than the cele,
orated congress Spring; four tunes' that of Baden
Baden of Austria; Ara times that of A ix Ja Chapjlle
in Prorata; twice that c" Vichy in France; nearly
three times greater than the renowned Sb<tcsr Of
Germany; and equally over the Spas of Bath, Ung.
land, and Bissengsn in Bavaria.
The reputation of ?Iii? waver fe based upon its
effects in dineatn? of tho stomach, liver, bowels,
kidney?, and spleen, and acts with woodotfut bene?
fit m cases of Chronic Dyspepsia, OonsiipaUon,
Gravel, Gout, Scrofula, Ciitanoous Affections, Ge ac?
ial Lethargy, Soreness, and Prostration ol the sys?
tem.
Tho value of mineral waters has been prised and
a -l.nowle.dgea by medica] men since tho earliest
civilization. A celebrated author ty says: <'Xbe vir?
tues ot minora' waters have been best shown in tho
treatment ot obscure and chronic diseases."
