There is one question of vital im portance to be met by the American people and by congress, and that is, Shall we abdicate as , a commercial nation and allow the European nations to obtain the commerce which naturally belongs to us? 8 England and France arcloutstripping us in obtaining South American trade. Why? Simply because they encourage the building and running of steam ships to these our neighbors. All these countries would naturally trade with us. But we can not compete in the carrying trade with nations whose governments pay liberal subsidies to steamship lines when we pay nothing or next to nothing. The present: annual subsidies paid Wy Great Britain to her six steamship lines to the West Indies, Central, and South America, amount to $567,250. The French government pays a bounty of 30 cents per ton per mile for every mile of steam navigation by vessels built in its ship yards and sail ing under its flag, and this bounty is increased fifteen per cent, when the designs of the vessels are submitted to and approved by the navy department. Besides this general bounty the ' French government pays to the steam ship line to China, Japan and India $1,714,604; $728,000 annually to the South American lines, $790,000 annu ally to the Mexican and West India line, $930,000 annually to the Mediter ranean lines, and $500,000 annually to the New York line. . . What has the United States done for the American lines running to Central and South America? It has paid for carrying the United States mails to all these countries' in nine years the total sum of $146,098.11, being a yearly average of $16,233.19, for fostering ber trade with her great sister continent. What the result is can be seen by the following tables, wV,;Vi shnvr the exDorts from our rMitv - i country, Great Britain, and France, to these countries for twenty years, from lS62tol882: UNITED 8TATE8. - To Central Atnerican: States. . .JP 16,141,375 Argentine Republic 40,621,672 Brazil ...J...., 128,190,807 Chile , 36,191,586 pertI 31,278,595 United States of Colombia .... 90,240.045 Uruguay 21,697.101 Venezuela 35,594,170 f Total $400,955,360 Yearly aweragoi 20,477,680 GREAT BRITAIN:.

The dome on the cupola at the lowest part will be 260 feet high and 280 feet in diameter. Around the foot of the tower iron buildings are to be erected for exhibition and other purposes.. Such a tower cannot be much els: than a toy or a plaything, although it may be some satisfaction to own the highest tower in the world, notwith standing the fact that it can t never be a thing of nf'lity. It is learned, through a private letter to a friend in Corvallis, that B. F. Bonham, the United States consul-general to Calcutta, has sent his resignation to . President Har rison, the same to take effect as soon as his successor is appointed. Judge John Kelsay, of this city, has been recommended to this place by the Oregon delegation. Mr. Bonham's former home was in Salem, and very likely he will return there as soon as he is relieved of his duties as consul general. How much money do you think John Bull has invested in American railway stocks and bonds and various individual enterprises? As nearly as can be reckoned, the sum1 runs up be tween two and three thousand million dollars. Wouldn't it be a good plan to use some of Brown-Ssquard's "elixir of life" right here in Corvallisl On Mon day last some fellow asked "when are they going to bury Corvallis?" A Nice Reception. Last, evening . at the residence of .Mi. D. P. . Mason, the Misses Mason tendered Miss Maud Huffman Corvallis' popular voting elocutionist, who is visiting in this city, a tea party, which the Democrat is informed was a very, nice and enjoyable affair, entirely beyond , the compieheusion of the sterner sex, excluded on all such occasions. A" recitation, ar tistically rendered, by Miss Hoffman, a song by Miss Hitchens, of Corvallis, and an elegant repast, were features of the evening's festivities. Those present were: Misses Flora and Vesta Mason, Maud Hoffman Carl Hitchens, Lee Prather, Grace Piper, Laura Vauue, Addie and Genevieve George, Maude and Minnie Van Horn, Hettie Miller and Miss Hollenbeck. Albany Democrat, 14th. Youthful Depravity. Sunday last two voune "bloods" from Corvallis bacame boisterous uuder the influence of some "tanglefoot,' and were arrested and placed under $10 bonds for their appearance on Monday morning.
