Tt is probable that three-quarters of a million immigrants will seek the shores of America this year. Some people are prone to worry over the supposed danger of so large an increase of the foreign element in our midst, but there does not seem to be an good reason for such fears. There is as yet, and will bo for a long time, room for all who 11103 come. A Chicago cotemporary, taking a broad view of thc subject, figures out that the capital value of these new comers to the country, being the cost of rearing them from birth to maturity, is not lest, than 6-10.000,000, and that this is a clear ffift from other countries to this; that they will bring with them an aggregate uf $70,000,000 in actual money, which otherwise would not be here; that they must eat, and will furnish a new annual market to our farmers, amounting to 50,000,000; that they will as sume part of the tax paying bur den; that they will be purchasers of all soils of articles, thus largely aiding thc industries; that Ihey be come producer and developers; that they strengthen the war power and influence of the nation; that the' contribute to the gene ral stock of knowledge about ag riculture, trades, arts and sciences; that they help to fill up our terri tories and make new states, and iu other ways are of great benefit to the country. It is unfortunate for Oregon that uc are not at tracting: larger numbers of them. CJen. Grant is no longer in poli tics, except as a citizen who exer cises the right to vole and think as he pleases. The San Francisco stock ex change will adjourn from the 1st to the 0th of July. The Pacific exchange will probably follow suit. A Iteno dispatch say the first live miles of the Oregon and Ne vada railway is completed, (trad ing is being pushed on the next five miles with a large force. The route will be permanently located immediately. Referring to Garfield, (.Jen. Grant says: "lie wants to please, everybody, and is afraid of incur ring the enmity of all the men who are around him. This is why he threw a sop to Colliding and Piatt. Robertsons appointment 1 am sure was bettled before March 11th; yes, before the Chicago conven tion. Robertson knew that if my nomination could be prevented, he would be collector of New York. In consequence of successive failures of engines constructed in Russia, all engines and machinery for ships of war are in future to be constructed abroad. This decision has been arrived at with the approval of Admiral Popoff, wiio is chagrined at the manner in which his pet ideas have been mutilated at the native engineer ing establishments. The greater portion of this work will of course go to England, but Germain is also likely to get a good share of it. It is to be regretted that the state of engine building for ships is not so far advanced in this country as to enable our builders to get a share of the work. . The cotton planters of the south have not much reason-to complain ni, me iiuuiiuuu oi-siavery. ineir crops of last year, according to careful estimates, amounted to 0,080,000 bales, or nearly 1,300, 000 bales more than in 1S70, when there was a splendid cotton har- i L. i nu greatest, crop ever raised under slavery w:is that of 1SG0, which fell about I,GOO,000 bales shorl of the yield of last year. The planters realize higher prices for their cotton than they did in slave davs, and are said to be in a better condition financially than they wen before the war. Their plantations are kept in bet ter order, and are better cultivated. They have less personal responsi bilities. In every way they profit by the freedom of the slave, avIioso friendship it is now to their inter est to cultivate, which makes it the more agreeable to the colored man, who, with his family around him, and in the enjoyment of fair wages for his labor, has something to live for. Trouble Ovj.r Farallone Eggs. Sao Francisco Call. Tlie Pacific Farallonc company j commenced an action against A. "W, Poole, in the Superior-court, to recover 20,000 damages for an alleged trespass. The complaint Allege;, that plaintiff acquired pos- j session of thc mahj or SQuth Far. allone island about twenty-five years ago, and held quiet posses sion of it until May 23d last, when defendant, by aid of a force of armed men, prevented plaintiff from carrvinc on its business of shipping and disposing of guano, eggs, etc., and dispossessing plain tiff of boats, tackle, tools and im plements used in their business. Plaintiff alleges that the egg-gathering season lasts only two months in each year, from the middle of May to the middle of July, and that defendants interference will destroy one yoan business. Plain tiff alleges also that defendant caused to bo removed from the island a seasons provisions for ten men, placed there by thc company. For damage to business, loss of time and money, plaintiff asks judgment for damages in the above sum. Tlio Coral Fisheries of Tunis. New York Tribune One point involved in the dis pute between France and Italy as to the ownership of Tunis, is the coral fishing industry. The Italians are able to monopolize this branch of commerce by reason of an Im perial convention of 1862, which reduced the annual tax for Italian coral fisheries from S00 to 400 francs, the larger sum being ex acted for French fishers who ob tained the right by treaty of the same date. The first coral fishers of modern times on the Tunisian coast, were two natives of ar seilles, who in 1G04 formed u com pany for the working of these riches of the seas. Early in the1 present century the coral industry was very important at Marseilles; in 1807 seventeen cutting and polishing manufactories existed there, each employing many hund red hands. Since then coral has somewhat lost its favor in France, but the fashion has been taken up in Russia, the Levant and else where, the Italians supplying the market. It is this monopoly that the Marseillais and Algerians wish to see destroyed. After the ios of seven hundred persons from a steamboat disaster, and the almost total destruction of their city by fire, it is hard to hear from Quebec that the oldest in habitant does not remember such weather. Not only small seeds but potatoes in outlying patches, have been nipped off by frost the last two nights. Besides all that they are troubled with religious lunatics. The Xew York Sun, comment i ng on the cheapening of transpor tation which has enabled America to compete with and almost drive the English farmer out of his home market, to the great injury of the landed aristocracy, whose chief revenues are derived from rents, thinks that the world is not much of a gainer after all. If the aris tocracy of England is being crip pled through the causes mentioned, a plutocracy of railroad managers and stock gamblers, who corrupt legislation and subsidize the press, is growing up in this country through the very agency that is injuring England. Of the two the Sun thinks the English aristoc racy infinitely preferable to the American plutocracy. For the scmiine J. 11.
