Blaine's Statesmanship.
t -i j: ... -t .1- -.i r
mu"" "-I"-' i iueou,,ofthebarwherotllerowasndcpth
says: The general character ofjo t)venty.six feet with the l5de
mv v.m. urc , vcimm
known. It bears date of the mid-
die of November, and was sent by
the same steamer which conveyed
Trescott and "Walter Blaine. It
sets forth at considerable length
the attitude of the United States
toward other republics upon this
and the South American conti
nent, affirming that it is our policy
to use the good offices of this na
tion to establish and ' perpetrate
peace between various nations to
which notes are addressed. He
affirms it is not the desire or policy
of the United States to interfere
in the domestic concerns of any
of those nations, but that the com
mercial interests of the United
States are deeply interested in tne
existence of harmonious relations
between the various republics
themselves, and between each and
the United States. The letter, af
ter discussing at great length the
mutual interests of the United
States and nations addressed,
treats of the question of the
great influence .of European pow
ers upon the two American con
tinents, and virtually proposes that
the United States and the vari
ous other republics to which th
circular letter is sent shcnild come
to mutual understandings in regard
to this matter, and propose mutual
guarantees against any interfer
ence or supervision from abroad.
The letter was prepared with
great care, and while the subjects
alluded to are fully ilNcusscd, the
tone of the letter i said to be
eminently conservative. The let
ter proposes on behalt of the
United States an international
conference of the republic -of
Mexico and Central and South
America to meet at Washington
the 30th of next November. Re
quest is made that the authorities
of each should name two commis
sioners to represent their govern
ment at the conference, tlm object
of which is to discuss questions
of mutual interest and promote
.friendly feeling?. At the tame
time this letter was dispatched
a second circular was mailed each
of our ministers, setting forth that
while it was well understood to he
a very delicate matter for one na
tion to mention pecuniary matters
to another in connection with such
invitation as had been extended by
the United State?, still our govern
ment desires to defray all the ex
penses of this conference, and it
was therefore in the discretion of
each minister to call this fact to
the attention of the government to
which he is accredited in such way
as shall appear to him most fitting.
Anoxo the many pleasant little
devicesjhat legislative romancers
are desirous of bringing before
the favorable coilsideration of
Congress is srfheme introduced
by some New York representa
tives to enlarge the Erie canal so
that war vessels twenty-live feet
wide and drawing twenty feet of
water could' pass from the great
lakes to the sea in case of a war
with England.- A subsidy of S15,
000,000 in bonds is asked, the
state of New York to pay the
present canal debt before the
operations begin.
Jx the U. S. Senate last Thurs
day Senators Miller and Slater
presented a number of petitions
from citizens of California and
Oregon, praying for leoislation to
regulate railroad transportation
charges, and Miller presented
meiribriuls and resolutions recently
adopfed by the San Francisco
board of trade, merchants' ex
change and produce exchange,
urging the" establishment of addi
tional signal stations on .the Pacific
"coast, and a central signal service
office at San Francisco.
RKrtmn. from Government sur
vcys at the mouth oi the .Missis
sippi snow mat cumng uecemoer,
1881, nine hundred and thirty-six
soundings were made at that point,
Editor. ivtu :i view of ascertaining the
lactual depth of water sdeured by
' Earls' jetties. The shallowest watnr
.anywhere lound was on the crest
nearlv two feet below the average
J flood. The system is an admirable
I pn'e and could be used to good
purpose and satisfactory effect at
the mouth of our own Columbia.
Tin: quidnuncs whose self
imposed duty it is to examine
the signs and tokens and oracular
ly announce results, are already
informing a credulous public who
are to be presidental candidates in
'S4. Arthur is put down as a
second termer; Grant as being de
sirous.of having his name appear
before a convention for the fourth
time; and, of course, the youthful
Tilden is accused of so shaping
his course as to be in at the death
when the hunt comes off.
Tis thought that should the
English Govornment refuse to ac
cept the modifications of the Clay-ton-Bulwer
treaty suggested by
Blaine, that the present Secretary
of State will announce that the
United States intends to abrogate
the treaty.
Femalk applications for public
offices arc said to be more than
usually numerous this year; some
of the would be officials going so
' high as to ask such an appoint
ment as Kegistcr oi the I .a nil
office.

The Sux forlSS2 will make its fifteenth
annual revolution under the present man
agement, shining, as always, for all, his ami
little, mean and gracious, contented ami un
happy, itepublican and Democratic, de
iira ert and virtuous, Intelligent and obtuse.
tiik Sun's light is for mankind and woman
kind of every sort; hut its general warmth
is for the good, while it iours hot discomfort
on the blistering backs of the ner-i-ieiilly
wicked.
The sux of isuwas a newspaper of r. new
kind. It discarded many of the forms, and
a multitude of the superfluous words and
lihrases of ancient ioumalism. It under
took to report in a f resli, succincr, uncon
ventional way all the news of the world,
omitting no event of human interest, and
commeuting upon affairs with the fearless
ness of absolute independence. The suc
cess of tins experiment "was the sucee.-s of
The Sux. It effected a permanent change
in the style of American newspaiK-rs.

We shall print all the news, putting il into

by its real interest to the people. Distsiicp
from I'rinting House Square is not tho first
consideration with Tun Svx. Ylicneer
anything happens worth reporting we get

In politics we have decided opinions ; and
are accustomed to express them in language
thai can be understood. We savwliatwc
think about rr.cv and events. That iiahit is
the only secret ot T111: SuVh political course.
The Wkkwi.v Sux gathers into eight

Dr. Williams-, (an Indian Keinedy), called
Dr. William's Indian Ointment. A single

the intense Helling, (particularly at night af

gives instant relief, and is prepared only for
Piles, itching of the prhatc parts, and for
