The Panama railroad people aie con cerned about the railway across the isthmus of Tehunntepec, for the con struction of which a compinj' has been organized with a grant of land from the Mexican government. The line will be about 130 miles long. It will hat e the ndt antage of a terminal Pacifie point 1.250 miles nearer San Fiancisco than Panama, while its east ern tet minus will be no farther from Now York than is Aspinwall, and about 700 miles nearer New Orleans. This project may effect scriouslj both the Panama and the Nicaiagua canal projects. Thk Tood or the Danes. The Danes moMlj make a substantial breakfast about 10 a. m., and dine at 3 in thu afternoon, the crat ings of hun ger being siibseqiientlt' allayed with H-linapps, beer and brown bread and butter, cot crcd with a piece of smoked salmon or some similar delicact'. F.i crytruo Dane delights to begin the dat with n basin of "olbtodsuppe," composed of black beer and crentn, with slices of btown bread floating in it. It is said to bo von nutiieious. Tho strangest compound of which it ever became our lot to partake was called "Kumpsuppo," and was com posed of milk, rum and preserved elieities, made hot and whipped into a froth. At n dinner commencing witli such a dish, it mny bo supposed that it was n difficult mnttertochooso what to drink, and tho after conse quences may bo imagined, but need not bo described. Sevoral Spanish dishes look moro peculiar on (he menu than they do upon the tttnle; for instance: "Forloron Skildpaddlo" (mock turtle), "Koegot Gansobryst" (smoked goose broast), etc. Tho pro voiliinl honesty of tho Danes shows itself on tho (atill's in tho rostauiauts, whoro "Latttto" figures at tlnco funics per bottle.

Thcotilaof nn arristocracy based upon the ownership of land, so appar ent in Irolnnd nnd othor pnrts of Eu rope, nro nttrncting a lnrgcr shnro of attention now thnn otor before. At a meeting held in Urooklyn not long since for tho leliofof Iioland, H. W. Ilccchcr was ono of the spcakors, nnd used the following htngiingo: I ob serte that tho principal journals say that ttc ought to express our sympa tic and approtnl of the ntotomont in nid of the rtnrving, but that further than this wu ought not to go. But I am here to benr witness with all the strength that I enn put intolnngitngo thnt the man who stops nt this point and docs not go any further is not worthy of the title of a man. I am in fator of the ngitntion of public senti ment in America for tho emancipa tion of Irish poasanlrj from their present condition. There is no subject that is more im portant to the gtcat mass of mankind thnn tho quotion of lnnd. Thcro nre a great ninny ways, gentlemen, by which oppression can make itself felt. I may tnke possession of the Govorn ment, and by arms dospoil the citi zens, tnke their rights from them, im prison them, slay them That is ty rannt, the most common nnd obvious. It ninj bo that there shall ariein the midt of the State such power and wealth, such combinations of capital and monopolies that the great thoroughfare shall be choked up by the few, and prctcnt the passage of tile million main', and so oppression may take place in the communitt-. Thnt may be more mild in apects,but it is netcrthelces oppression. And there is another oppression quite pos sible by which the rights, happiness and the life of the people maj- be sucked out, and that is the possession of nxnd. The time is coming when the world is to have anew agitation on the subject of land, lie that pos sesses tho land possesses the people. You cannot put the land of anj- nation into the hands of a few and not make them the despots over the manj'. The holding of the land in fee simple bj- the men who work on it is the principle, and j'et shall be the universal world doc trine. It is quite in tain that four millions of Africans have been eman cipated if the are forbidden to buy land. I hold Hut the aristocracy pos sessing the land in a community holds the pcoplo by the throat, and that though these people may be un der thorough got eminent, and stritc to a degree they neter can arrttc at the stature of perfect men according to the American democratic ideas. It may be said herctjiatwe hate no right to discuss the question of tho land tenures in other countries in England, Ireland, France, Germany, Itily, oranyotherplacc;and although for the moment I admit that perhaps it may not be expedient to go dccply into a discussion of those lnnd tenure, I hold that we hate a right to discuss whether any Government, not a Brit ish, French, or Russian, but any Gov ernment under God's heavens, has the right to parcel out and adopt a land system which shall shut out the mass of men from tho holding of tho land. I hold that that is despotism, in what ctcrit takes place. Cot eminent for AInstU a.
