Becretary Chandler takes occasion te Imue his congratulations upon tlie bue. cess of the Greely relief expedition, and beneral Hnzen appears befere the pub lte with a suggestion that the survivors be kept In a cold latitude during the summer, In order te their gradual accli mation. The secretary and the general had both better have tkept under cover. The direction of the relief expedition which failed of its purpose last year was with them, and they made a bad mm of it. They cannot escape from their responsibility for the death of these who dled by the recovery of the survivors. Commander Schley is the here of the expedition. It was his celerity of prepa ration and vigor In pressing toward the goal which saved the lives that were saved. A day or two of delay would I hftva finished the party. It adds se much te the regret for thoie who perished that they dled when relief was se clesp. If thore had been any delay at all In the mevemeuts of the expedition, its eris mander would h tve buen reproach-1 a'.l the world ever. Commander Scli'ey had a great responsibility upon him; ami as he has acquitted himself well, Ins award of public applause will be as great as the censure would have been heavy for any hesitation In his movements Probably this is the last Arctic expe dition for a term of years. There is nobody new te be rcssued, and that excuse for the vain perils of explera tlen of the frozen seas is gene. Greuly lias brought the record! of two years' observations home with him, and they will probably be found te be barren of any very great interest ; and what they have is garnered, and no mere lives need be risked in, Bearch of new Information ami objerva ebjerva objerva tlens in a region where change Is se little known that even the previsions 'eft there seventy years age were net se much the worse for th ir age but that they could be used. Anyone hereafter who wants te go te the North Pele should be left te rind the way en his own account, without involving the nation In responsibility for his succor. We have had quite enough of the ex perlence. Secretary Chandler saysjthat he does net care te ta'k about the pros pector fresh expeditions. He may talk with freedom ; for that there never will be another, under his direction, is very certnin. About Mind Heading. Mr. Gorden Cumberlard, the mind reader, in England, j.h0 newspapers say suit tffey never lie has told Mr. Glad stone all that he was thinking of doing in Egypt nnd elsewhere, and Mr. Glad stone told him he had read him aright, but bound him te secrecy ; se Mr. Cum berland did net tell. Evidently he is net in search of wealth. Mr. Cumberland, while net wautincc llllhy lucre himself, should kindly remember that there are ether people who de net have all they want, whom he could help by teaching them his secret. There are a great mnny charities, t e, which Mr. Cumberland, if he is a philau philau thepist, might aid. Evidently he is neither fend of money nor philanthropy. It would be the easiest thing in the world for Mr. Cumberland te be its ch of potentate, lie could distribute the money unduly accumulated in the hands of the few and disperse It among the many. He could be the mgre's idol, glvinir them each mi acres and a mule ; and the white rnnti'd, tee, giving te t-ach a thousand a jear. Evidently it would be an easy trick te Mr. Cumberland te make everybody happy, except the millionaires. All he would need te de would be te hit his beneficiaries knew what the Goulds and Vanderbllts were doing ; or, simpler still, obtain the information hin.self and use the VHlunble proceeds for the benetlt of the teiliuc millkns. Mind reading is n wonderful thine We have often read et it, and efltn ietn it. Our tateemed fellow townsman Dr. Falniestcvk, Htl.eta'lai of the art, and its most acceiiiplis'if I practitioner. What. h don't kn v about it, no eth-r man knnw.i Hut the practical results which are premised by the mind reading expositions de net fellow. The trouble is that all p-i pit. can't be read, nor at ad times. The piospereus fellows are piebably all vt-ij htird-harded trtatuns, who gut fi-r dish by keeping their opinions te II i in selves and keep it by tlie same w, -r. There are some people who can be kmiI like nn open book. Seme people cuid net keep their thoughts te themselves if they tried ever se hard. Mr.Gladstoue, It is true, is net one of that kind ; and If Mr. Cumberland has tumbled him ever nnd get his opinions without his leave, Mr. Cumberland is evidently a necro mancer of high degree. Wiien we have the aflldavit of Mr. Gladstone te the fact, we would be strongly in favor of promoting a Cumberland cempanj, limited, te utilize the Ciimbeiland talent for the benefit of the world In genera' and the stockholders particularly. A VKliy formidable opposition te tr.e Western Union telegraph company Inn been formed by the consolidation of the three ether most important lines In the country. It Is evident that the new organization has come te keep the field Ne doubt it will be glad te have It all te Itself ; and the posslble result of the con test that will ensue between them will be the absorption of the Western Union by the new anaconda ; though before It is swallowed, It will have te Bhrlnk very much from its present In. Hated proportions, and get down te Its real value. There Is no prospect what ever of the new company being em braced nnd smothered by the Western Union, as Its predecessors have been. It is tee big nnd strong. It is well equipped for the rivalry it seeks by the umnllucss of its capital and the strength of its financial supports. It Is trained down very fine, und will readily knock out its big bellied antagonist en the first round, The Western Union is Jay Gould, and nothing, else ; and that ence renowned .1 1 lilntn 1 a a n u 1 1 ri tt v.l I.I miiiilP lm nman sinuuw w oAuuueucu luiuoeu in dub Wining it. nnen u urera no win drop, and there will be flne smashing of things te be sure TJie country has net get te hard pan yet, but It will be there when the telegraph war Is ever.

The Western Union attempted te pieveut the consummation et the purchase and the construction of the new line, but lest nil its points in court. Then lollewed the decision of the United States supteme court of the ease between the Western Union and the Balttmore cc Ohie affect ing the possersien of telegraph lines ou the Balttmore A- Ohie railroad, which had been iu court teu years. lu the four mouths past 20,000 miles et wire have been constructed, which is mere than twice as mueh hb any company, even including tbe Western Union, ever built within the tame period, nud 5,000 miles mero nte new in progress of construction. The following figures will show the mug. nitude of the consolidated system : '1 he total Baltimnie A Ohie milo.igeby August 1 will be Pi.eOu miles of wire, reaching from Bosteu en the East, St. Leuis en the West aud Texarkana and Galveston en the Southwest, with seven through wires from New Yerk te Chicago. The Gulf, Colerado ec S.uita re railroad, of Ietas, w bleb has bten doing public telegraph business in epp Mtii n te the Wcstcru Union cempiuy for. several years, joins the combination, and, iu connection with the Baltimore & Ohie, w.ll build lines te all important eities and towns iu Texas. The llaukers & Merchants' company has during the past six months increased its mileage from 30,000 te 53, 000 miles, reaching the Southern Btates te New Orleans, wts: te St. I'aul and Omaha, with ten through wires from New Yerk te Chicago. The Postal is also adding wires and per fecting its system, and will have leu wues iu all hi tween New Yerk and Chicago, besides Bosteu and Washington. The total ciile.ige of the combination is 120,000 miles, equ.il te eue-thiid of Western Union mileage, eraitttug railroad wires. But this one third, it is claimed, by teach ing chiefly important trade centres and large cities, touches SO per cent, of the entire telegraph traillc of the United States. A telegraphic money transfer system, atd a district mtsscuger service will be extensively developed. The combination has reduced its rates below the Western Union rates. The aggregate annual rental of the leased wires of the Baltimore A; Ohie & Merchants A Bankers' com panies aggregates uearly $100,000. The uew system Is te be further developed as fast ns pOAfiiblc. The expenses of operating the new ystems will be leductd as nearly as pos sible te the costef operating oue company, with, it is claimed, will enable the com b'.natiuti te secure te the public cheap ami reliable Ecmce. The alhed companies repiescnls a cash outlay of 22,000,000 iu laud aud ocean hues, and enters iute competition with the Western Union representing a capital of about 210,000,000, and meets it ou equal if net superior footing throughout a territory from the big capitalized corpor ation h.n in the past derived by far the greater p rtieu of its revenue When Gould endeavored te induce Maeky te draw out of the busiuess ami turn his orermous wealth iute ether channels, the benatizi king quickly turned upon the ngents of the great speculator aud declared that be could afford te lese all the cash he had put into land Hues and cables, but he uiuld net afford te seli te Jay Gould. Se far as Bennett is concerned, he may he sa'ely quoted as fully ngreelng with Mackay, and, were he te personally ex prers himself, would doubtless be much mere imphatie. Ganott, with the halt century record of the Baltimore cc Ohie c-rnpany for net felling out auything te anybody, completes the trio of magnates who, tu the new and concentrated move upon the Western Uuieu monopoly, may be predicted te render things interesting in telegraph circles, representing interests gienter in extent of class and capital than the whole stock aud bended iudobtednoss et the Western Union and its eight ocean cables. It would be idle te talk of selllug out, or of ene company lenger concentrat ing the cutiru telegraph busiuess of the country within its own control. , The Held liucc.tuenr, Texas Sittings.
