Benefits of Immigration .
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.
