Dr. John v,\ Draper, of the New - York. University, was chosec president, and Mr. AR. Spafford librarian. - -The Pacific Railroad, it ls asserted, has in? troduced sharper competition in almost every de? partment of trade in'San Francisco, and the m anu faetnrers of that city have been compelled to dis? charge their hands, as they cannot compete in prices with inp goods brought from the Atlantic States. -It ia announced that Secretary Bout well has sjneoecsa*urt/ Inaugurated a sinking fund for the payment of the national obligations, and there ? already on deposit in the Treucry over eighteen -?* sueieuuv Walling "definite Congressional action. -Sixty bodies have been recovered from and ?ear the wreck of the steamer Stonewall.

It ls report ted that a vigilance committee has been formed *t tape Grrardeau to lynch him on his return up the river. -lierresentatlves of the Memphis, El Paso and Pacific Railroad deny the truthfulness of the charge la a Chicago paper that Congress will, next session, be asked by that company to appropriate .-.asveralTnilltons of dollars for aid for constructing - the "road. They say no appropriation has been ?asked nor suggested by them, and all they have - heretofore sought, and all they propose to ask of ] Congress at the coming session, ls the right of way through the public domain. -The report of the commission, appointed un .?der k resolution of Congress to examine into the : condition of the Central and Union Pacific Rail? roads, represents that both of the roads are in . good average condition, as compared with the generality of railroadsin the United States, but . ?notes various deficiencies, not generally nec? essary to be remedied immediately, and es tl \ mate* the cost of supplying them at $370,650 for Ahe Central, and $l,5S0,ioo for the Union Pacific. -Private letters from leading European Repub? licans indicate that the recent revolutionary out? break in the Austrian province of Dalmatia, which would appear to be more serious than the cable' dispatches show, ls in accordance with a . saan long since indicated by Mazzini. It con aiats In the commencement of a European move? ment in the East rather than has hitherto been the case at Paris or other of the great centres. The letters referred to state that Menotti Gari? baldi, eldest son of the Italian liberator, has been for acme time actively at work organizing aid for *?e Dalmatians. The revolutionary programme proposes the establishment of a Federal Republic, Ho consist of the Sclavonic provinces of the Aus? trian and Turkish Empires. -The London Tunes foresees that the under . atar.ding between Prim and Serrano must end. The election of a king alfords the best opportunity they could have for a dissolution of partnership, which could otherwise hardly be expected wlth ?Out a disastrous on tb reak. The Unionist? have no -char.ee of success. After a week's vain debate lu 'the Cortes, the Ministers of that party have re? signed. Serrano must follow them, and then Prim '. remains master, a situation which snits him; at least he wishes to have the substance of power ander some one Invested with its semblance. For the past year Serrano has served as a cloak Tor his ambition. Jf Serrano withdraws und the Duke of Genoa is not brought in, then Prim stands forth -exposed to tho envy of the great and rancor of -the small; alone, between friends who do not trust Sim, and enemies who, when the time comes, will .not spare bira. -The emigration of Chinese into California, it ts asserted by the San Francisco Bulletin, is by no means-extraordinary, and is not increasing nt such a rate as to excite alarm as to the influence *f the Asiatics upon society. During the first aight months bf 18S9, the arrivals or Chinese at -Ban Francisco amounted to 11,000, which propor? tion would give 16Y&00 for the arrivals during the entire year. The number was only exceeded In 1852, when the arrivals amounted to 13,434. Thc ?ext largest was ta 1854, when over 15,006 lam? .etd. Tb* arrivals during the five years provi? sos to I860, as compared with all earlier years, csp to 1852, lt ls stated, exhibit a considera? ble falling oflV and ' but ror the marked Increase In arrivals during the present year, it ls argued, lt might bc assumed that the Chinese emigration was abat ng. The complete statistics I ' show.that while the arrivals from 1852 io l?m, in? clusive, a period of eleven years, aggregated ss,- j t ita, making an average of over 8000 per annum, the arrivalsfrom 1864 to 1868, inclus v , a period 3T ?ve years, aggr gated but 16,098, making an annual average of only 3219. OB the other hand, lt te funner contended that large numbers of Chinamen have returned to then* native land, and also have died, so that thc Chinese residents are not so numerous as might be supposed. -A Richmond letter of, Saturday last says: 'The passenger train on the Richmond, Freder tcksburg and Potomac Railroad, which has of late rarely exceeded two coaches, consis'ed on the 20th or seven well packed coaches, and the same remarkable movement South the previous day taxed the capacity of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad train to its utmost. The move? ment of the negroes to the far South, under the inducements of a more genial clime and high wages, ls assuming large proportions, and if it increases m the same ratio till next summer, the Weds faction In Virginia will then have complete? ly lost Its rank and file. The colored labor of the country ls gravitating to the localities it ls be3t adapted to, and leaving a clear field here for the Northern and European emigrant. I am told by railroad men that the negroes are daily leaving the State, under contracts, in parties varying from twenty-five to one hundred. They do not all go directly to the cotton field and sugar plan? tation-five hundred, for instance, being called for, and rapidly responding, to work on a Chatta? nooga railroad. They will ultimately, no doubt, fulfil their mission la the culture of cane and cot? ton. The demand for them for that purpose was great In the days of slavery, and it is now reviv? ing, to exceed, perhaps, all former example." Union of the ?ou th and West. It is convenient to a certain class of po? litical writers to sneer at the efforts put forth for the establishment of a closer union be? tween the.West and the South. To attach any importance to the various* conventions recently held, whose object was a closer union between the sections, would have been a prejudice to the interests under their patronage. For the West is already a well nigh overshadowing power; the South is already rebuilding her ruins and renewing her harvests; an alliance of the two would control the finance and the policy of the re? public The sphere entered by the new co? partnership would afford them a monopoly against which all the resources of New Eng? land craft and blaster would be expended in vain. . Such a coalition may not be established speedily; but sooner or later it must take place. Nature has related the two sections too intimately to allow of their artificial sev? erance. They gravitate toward each other; and perchance the abortive attempt to ac? celerate the movement may. arise simply from the circumstance that it is influenced by canses which operate with the steadiness of a law. But let it be remembered that a force which cannot be intensified, cannot be arrested by human expedients. An ava? lanche cannot be hurried; but let not the simple cotter below take courage from this fact? The ponderous accumulation to which days and nights and months and years have contribnted their stores, is already in mo? tion; it is coming down silently, solemnly, like a mountain cloud; soon it will be upon him, and there is no bulwark he can erect that will stay its progress for a moment, or prevent the overthrow it brings. . The Southern people, who are in a minor? ity, are constrained to seek for protection and a real restoration, in a concert of action with others. Nor have we occasion for de? spair in the failure of similar attempts in former years. The reasons for our ill suc? cess are apparent now. Thus, for example, we vainly hoped, during 'the war, that the interests of England would lead her to in? terfere in the struggle. We, did not know how deeply the working classes of that coun? try bad been prejudiced amainar, nnr ??.1? ueu mat tire abolition of African slavery would cheapen cotton and elevate the fac? tory laborer. The system which reared the products of the South was thought to infect the free hands that wrought upon them-to enslave the swart artisans of Lancashire, and to depress the social Matu* of Lowell's -"faotory girls With cotton sticking to their curls." Thus the appeal of the South to England was neutralized, and the statesmen most fa? vorable to our cause were impotent against an unreasouing, groundless jealousy of sta? tion. Again, the recent failure of thc Western Democracy to renew the political fellowship of tho West and South, is susceptible of an equally simple explanation. Mr. Secretary Boutwell, in his Philadelphia speech, struck tire key-note and sounded the rallying cry of the Republican campaign in Ohio. The opinion was industriously circulated that the Democrats were repudiators; that the credit of the government, and so the lighfc ening of the burdens of taxation, depended upon the sucsess of the Radical party; that the most creditable reductions in the na? tional expenditures and the public debt had already taken place under their manipula? tions-and 30, without exactly convincing the people that all was right, he succeeded in persuading them that public interests might be injured if any change of policy should now take place. Yet the appeal to the interests and fears of au overtaxed peo? ple but partially succeeded. There was, after all, a Democratic gain-a sensible ap? proach of tire West to the South-a defeat that augured victory hereafter. It is folly to prate, as the Times does, that the "ties of trade" and the "common in "terest" will not eventually result in a com? pact between the South and Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and the other great Western States. It is folly to reproduce the traditions of the war as a proof that such n union cannot be effected. If the t\. J sections have "common \ "ends to serve and common enterprises in "view for their promotion,"' (and such are, indeed, thc facts of tire case,) what "patri "otic duty" now.exists to prevent thc coali? tion of their counsels und energies for the attainment of a common good ? Narrow observers fail to recognize the fact that the South has become less and less concerned in matters of party politics-the only difficulty that now divides the two sec? tions. Whatever interest we may have in the success of thc followers of Mr. Hoffman or Mr. Pendleton, it arises less from parti? san considerations than from the assurance that the Radical policy of repression and proscription is coming to an end. But tho interests that concern us most arc those which we cherish in common with the West. The people of that vast region, as well as we, desire to be relieved from oppressive taxa? tion, which rests with special weight upon the agricultural classes; they desire that the conditions of their* former prosperity shall be restored; they desire iha* the current of trade so long diverted by tariffs of protec? tion and by bounties and monopolies, shall oe allowed to flow in its natural channels : * i, they desire that the governm.nt patronage ; [ltira must have a paternal ?.oveinmenfc) j shall be national and not local. In regard to these most important subjects the West and the South are not far apart. And they are coming nearer together. Their union is a necessity. And the commercial conven tions and political overtures, which the Northern papers now affect to sneer at, are preparing tho way fer it. If they have uot restored the broken limb to its former integ? rity, they are the knitting of thc bone. A Rival Telegraph Linc. The fact that the telegraphs of the entire South are controlled exclusively by a single overgrown and greedy corporation has, ever since the close of the war, been an intolera? ble incubus, not only upon' newspaper enter? prise, but upon the general business of the community, which has come, now-a-days, to depend largely upon the free and frequent use of the wires. It was with pleasure, therefore, that we met yesterday Col. G. H. Ellery, the energetic President of the Frank? lin (opposition) Telegraph Company, who comes South with a view of inducing our people to co-operate in the construction of a rival telegraph line along the seaboard, from ' Washington to New Orleans. The Franklin Company has already its'network of tcle |-graphs in full and successful operation all over the North, and by a combination with the French Cable Company, it has inaugu? rated an effective opposition to the Western Union Company, the result of which has already been a material reduction of tolls, all 'round. As soon as the Southern con? nections of the Franklin Company are estab? lished, its competitive powers will be com? plete, and the Southern pitblic may share in the benefits which have already resulted, from its operations at the North. Col. Ellery informs us that half the capital required to construct the new seaboard line has already been subscribed in Philadelphia; and wc wish him speedy success in raising the re? mainder. MRS. STOWE'S disgusting slander of the dead is at last effectually refuted by the pro? duction of the letters from Lady Byron to Mrs. Leigh, which we publish to-day. The New York Tribune, which can hardly be accused of any harshness of feeling or preju? dice against the author of Uncle Tom's Cabin, gives its conclusions in the following emphatic sentence: "Weean imagina only .'one kind of evidence capable of upsetting 'the conclusions of these letters-and that 'is a confession by Mrs. Leigh, which, it is 'fair to presume, Mw. Stowe cannot pro 'duco, or we should have heard of it long "ago-" THE State Geueral Assembly will be asked to guarantee bonds of the Blue Ridge Rail? road to the amount of $9,000,000. This will-il is hoped-''.sure the completion of thc road. But it caunot be completed much uuder three years, during which period the interest on the guaranteed bonds must be paid by the State. _ The interest at six per cent, will bc $510,000 a year, to raise which the Slate taxes must be doubled. Tira total amount of internal revenue taxes collected in the United States is $178,451,012. The State of New York paid the largest amount-$39,431,141, and,Dakota Territory the smallest-$3913. South Can' ina paid $2,622,690, while Virginia paid only $1,176, 136. Georgia paid $6,112,2518, and Ala? ine conon ?states have done their part. ^ ?, ? IT IS expected that the Port Royal Rail? road, the Air Line Railroad, the Asheville j Railroad, and the South Carolina Central J Railroad, will apply for a State guarantee as soon as the Legislature meets. The whole amount asked for may be about twenty mil? lions-including the nine million dollars for the Blue Rid<re Railroad. D'A LEM m;:IT used to complain that "men so completely exhausted their industry in canvassing for places, as to have none left for the discharge of their duties."' Let the exhaustion be of both honesty and industry, and the epigram strikes home to the Radical officials in this supremely Radical State ?ox Stile. BEAL ESTATE OR PERSONAL PRO?
