Ooomassie to Prah River, and to proteot
merchandise transported over said road;

General Wolseley does not expect tbe

and more, likely to bo adhered to. A
garrison will be maintained by the Bri?
tish at Prahsu.

Tho Advertiser, remarking upon tbe
result of the Now LdrapJhira elections,
says: "After making allowances for
special uutl loc.il disturbances, which
prevail to Homo uxtent in all sections,
the salient fact remains that the Ropub
lioau majority, uvorugiug nearly 4,500
in the last ten years, has been wiped
out, and that, too, in favor of a party
whioh could proseut do ulnim to public
confidence, except us affording a wtty of
escape for Repubhcuus who feel that, iu
their own party, their confidence has
been sadly betrayed. New Hampshire
marks tbe inevitable teudenoy of oar
politios; .the waning power of tbe onoe
popular leader; tbe unwillingness of
large classes of intelligent voters to own
allegiance to a party, which fails to keep
its promises; the settled and increasing
dissatisfaction of tbe country with the
Administration, as it manifests itself in
its appointments, and in ite treatment
of the great questions of tbe hour."

The struggle regarding a uuvvolectio?
in Louisiana, under Federal auepices, is
tierce. There is no Democratic paper
hero from wbioh to quote. As an illus?
tration of the character of the argument,
the National Republican, (Administra?
tion organ,) after lauding the loyalty of
the Kellogg Government, ridiculing tho
failure of impeaobmont of Judge Durell,
for what it terms his bold discharge of
duty, and citing the favorable investiga?
tion of the Congressional oommitee,
I says: We do not hesitate to warn Con?
gress, most solemnly, that any attempt
to distuib tho condition of uffairs in

minded men as an act of despotic inter?
ference with a people who bavo Buffered
immeasurable wrougs already, and,who
ure entitled, now that they buve legally
earned it, to some respite from the evils
and horrors incident to political cam?
paigns in the South. Let Gov. Kellogg

An old bachelor iu Orleans County,
Vermont, has beeu deterred from com
mittuig matrimony in the following
uovel way: Thinking over the BUbjecl
seriously, uud particularly the expense
of maintaining a family, ho set the tablt
in his lou'dy abode with plates for him?
self and an imaginary wife ami live chil?
dren. Ho then sat down to diue, und
us often us ho helped hitnsolt to food be
put the same quantity ou eaoh of the
other plates, and survi/yud tho prospect,
at tho saute tune computing the cost.
J.Vo result of his examination was'st
discouraging laat he resolved not to
marry.
Some incu never loss|their presence ol
mind. In Milwaukee, at a lire, htsl

out of 11 window in the tift.ii story of (i

Thb Exit of Gold.?The New York |
Herald notes that nearly $1,000,000,000
in gold have been sent abroad, dnring I
tbe last twenty years, from the port of
New York, oomparatively Httle of wbioh
has fonnd its way back. England has
had the lion's sbaro of this golden har?
vest. England has likewise drawn from
Australia, daring the samo period,
about tbe samo amount of ooin, and
jot, it is said that she has not any great
surplus of bard money. Where haB it
gone? Much of it bus bocu absorbed
by Africa, Asia and the East Indies.
Speaking of the lust for gold in Egypt,
and the propensity to hoard it thore, the
Herald a aye:
The Egyptian has a long stocking, j
and in it ho places bis gold. The coin
thut he does not dispose of in this man?
ner in used by the ladies and conoubines
of his harem for bracelets, anklets,
uccklaoes and bosom ornaments. The
consumption is thus enormous. * * *
All over Europe, stockings aud trunks
are still fall of gold, which only na?
tional appeals, founded on the warnings
of political ruin, can put -(float among
tho people.
it has been eaid thut so much gold is,
this day, buried in Egypt, that the bid?
den treasure under ground is greater
than that existing in the crude Htate in
California. One prime reuson advanced
for this secreting of ooin is, that any
man Bospeoted of a visible supply of
"demnition cash" is at onoe brought
under the exactions aud robbery of ra?
pacious officials; and eo the only safety
deposit ifi the soil. Tho East, from tbe
earliest times, has beou tbo hoarder of
gold, aud, in consequence, the spoil of
Western conquest or invasion. But the
love of specie nnd the habit of biding
it away is not confined to tho Oriental
nations. The French people must have
had immense sums concealed, as the re?
markable effort made to satisfy the Prus?
sian indemnity testifies. No doubt,
many millions are boarded in the United
States. How much, it is difficult to con?
jecture; bat one thing seems pretty cer?
tain, and that ia, it would take a vast
amount of patriotic coaxing to make it
come forth and be exchanged for irre?
deemable paper.
\ Augusta Constitutionalist
Remarkable Treatment for Con?
sumption.?A highly respected citizen
of Rome, Georgia, showed us a private
letter, yestorday, from a relative in
Boston, from which we make tbe follow?
ing extract, relating to a remarkable but
effective treatment of a case of con?
sumption: "Willie baa been sick for
more than a year past, just gone into
consumption, but had an operation per?
formed by having an incision made
through his back into the lungs, and
from which were drawn out at tbe first
operation nine pints of matter, incredi?
ble almost, but such ure tho facts, as hie
mother told me sho measured it. Aftei
this his lungs were washed out with
warm wator aud carbolic acid. The
washing has been douo day after day.
The l?ngs are now healing. Ho hut
gained, in flush from some twenty u
thirty' pounds, can walk a mile withoul
getting wearied, and in improving line
ly."?Rome (Ga ) Commercial.
The Obioago Times says: "It is into
resting and suggestive to see Mr. For
uey's Press charging the Republican
nurtv with all manner of frauds iu con
neotion with tbe luto mayoralty couteat.
Time was, nnd that not loug ago, when
Mr. Forney's Press would have repelled
anysuoh charges uguiuut the Ropublicui
party in Philadelphia or elsewhere, witL
any quantity of simulated indignation.'
But Forney's notion is another illnstra
tion of the "old saw" about t '.ta leaving
a linking ship.
