Holland Wird Her Wars. ,
(Cerreepondenceorthe Pittsburgh Copiraerciolf •
It might have been thought, that - some
compensation *mild have been received by,
the Dutch by en exemption frqm the , ex-.
/must've wars of earlier times, •which have :
frequently desolated the more favored por
tions of Europe; for such a marsh as Hol
land seemingly presented no prize to tempt
the cupidity of rapacious neighbors. but
probably no nation has spffered 'more from
war, or, certainly, none has ever surpassed '
it in heroic resistance. We passed a day at
Leyden, *hick is rendered memorable by.
the siege °Nis, Spaiaiards, which it so gal
lantly. withstood. 1 Those of your readers
who have visited the Academy of Fine Arts
in Philadelphia will remember that the
principal picture, in that collection repre
-swats that event. A ft er the inhabit ants ..
its had
exhausted their supplies and MO. bread had
been used for six weeks, a plague brokenut
which carried off six thousand. persons, the
result of using roots and weeds Ito sustain
life. The. Spanish nommander requested a
surrender, but the reply was: ‘lEven when
compelled to eat our left arms, our right
shall-remain to strike for our country."
The inhabitants of Haarlem rivaled this
under similar circumstances. When re
duced to the direst !extremity, they resolved
to cut their way through the ranks of the
besiegers, placing the women and children,
in the centre. Hearing of this the Spanish
commander offered them a general- pardon
and amnesty,,providell fifty-seven of their
- number mere delivered to him to 'be exe
cuted. , Thiswould not have been acceded
to had not fifty-seven of.the principal citi-
tens surrendered- themselves voluntarily,
Noble men!. they'died like true - heroei to
save their fellows;; but alas! that history
must record - how utterly unavailing was
the sacrifice. Two thousand - more were
butchered before fthe fiendish Spaniard
thirst for blood was fully glutted. The pre
sent race, who inhabit Holland, are not un
worthy of , their sires. During the recent
war with Belgium, Van Speke, commen
ter 'of a frigate, applied the match himself
to the powder magazine( rather than sur
render when the vessel had grounded under
the guns of a Belgian fort. Twice in Dutch
history the last resort was necessary in
order to preserve her independence.
THE SLUICE GATES WERE OPENED. ,
Probably!' there' is not in the langnage
-another sentence which conveys so much of
misery, ruin and terror to the Hollander as
this, It _means that "rather than our
country, be . desecrated by a foreign foe,
thereshall remain-no country save what we
shall again reclaim when our assailants are
swept away." No country has so secure a
defence as Holland. Other nations may
-continue to expend millions upon fortifica
tions, and throw away, before they are used
tfie implements - which have, cost so much,
only to replace them with others which the
marsh of events, or the progress of military
science, shall in turn render useless. The
Hollander sits secure. He aspires not-to be
'iron-clad, and why should he when nature
has, ade him water-proof! -
This is certainly an advantage of the most
important kind. There is another,' flowing
from the superabUndance of water, which is
scarcely less so. Having at laand a plentiful.
supply of moisture, as well as the ability to
rid himself of the surplus, he succeeds in
doing that which is elsewhere -impossible;
he can maintain an equable degree of hu
midity at all times. Does it rain, our friend
the. Dutchman starts his Windmills to work,
and while ke smokes his mighty pipe, sees
the surplus waters drained from his fields
and carried into. the canals. Does a dry
season - come upon him, he furls his sails
and his grass has plenty of water. Owing
is this-advantage Holland has become, for
ihilextent, the best grazing country in the .
world. During a ride of a hundred miles
we saw not a field of grain or even of root
'crops,nothing but a continued succession. of
grass fields, fenced by narrow canals, and
filled With cattle and sheep. Dutch butter
and Dutch cheese' are renowned, the world
over. We saw 'ships loading with these
articles. Immense numbers of cattle are
also shipped to Britain, indeed this is the
ehief export trade of the Dutch.
OONTOITE OP THE HOLLANDER.
The people of Holland are decidedly the
best, looking race we have seen upon the
continent, even tile - Saxon-haired German
must give place to the Dutch, who resemble
- the British so .much that apart from their
language, they might well pass for 'citizens
of the Sea-Girt Isle. We speak of the more
intelligent classes, the peasants in remote
districts are less likely to impress the
• traveler favorably; in some measure. - no
doubt, owing to the peculiarity of their
dress. The Government is a limited
monarchy, the present King being univer
sally liked. There is a Senate and House
of Commons, the members of the former,
we were delighted to learn, were elected
like these of the, Commons, for a term of
five years. Universal suffrage does not
exist, but each man who pays a certain
rental has a vote.
The National debt is about two hundred
millions; a large portion having been in
curred in the recent struggle with Belgium.
We were informed that fifty millions of the
debt had been . paid off within tke past three
years.
we have , not acquired as much knowledge
of the histo4 of a nation, and of the manner '
and, customs of the people, in a like period
of time, since we came abroad, as we were
fortunate enough to obtain regarding the
Dutch; they do most things in a way exactly
the reverse of our practice. It is said to be
a country of paradoxes, and one could not
help laughing, several times-each day, at
the ridiculous scenes presented, but we
soon came to entertain an enduring respect
for a peOple who had done such great things.
Whatever changes the future may have in
store for continental nations, and we are
persuaded they are many and far reaching,
we shall' ever indulge.the hope that these
Hollanders may long be permitted to pre
serve their. indepen den ce.
Yours among the Dutch.
Mingles and HIS Friends.
In rtviewing James Buchanan's "De
fence," the New. York Trib4ne says:
If Douglas had been'elected President in
1856, he probably would havtpostponed the
irrepres.sible conflict twenty years. It he
had been elected President in 1860, he might
have been the Danton of revolutionists, and
ended it in two years. He died too soon.
The mistakes (it would be harsh to say
crimes) of his life were nobly.redeemed by
its closing months. The war might have
dwarfed him as it did his peers; but
we think it would have develOped and
strengthened his intense Americanism. It
.is known tl at at the time of his death he
was about to take a command in the army,
Around him were such men as David C.
'Broderick, a Senator from California; his
friend, the pure•minded and gallant Harris,
of Illinois, then- sinking rapidly into the
grave, john Haskin, of New York, and
Robert J. Walker, of Mississippi.
David C. e ßroderick was a qtaint type of
the American character. His life had been
a, stiuggle./ He had struggled with poverty,
and gained a' limited education, a knOw
ledge of literature which rose to the;level of
• I
Balwer, whom he considered superior
to Shakespeare. Born in Washing
ton in 1818, - where his ' father cut
Stone for the Capitol, brought up in
NeW, York, in the school of desperate
and - unscrupulous _:politicians that made
• Tatnmany Hall' a prize-ring, he became a
fireman,*a Ward manager, and sought to
reach Congress bythese agencies. Defeated
by F, A. Tallmidge, he went - to' California - .
with" thefeVerish multitude.of 1849. As he
stood talking to some of his friends on 'the
gangway d the steamer, he 'said, "I .shall
not return until I return as Senator." A
man - With the energy of Broderick was fitted
to command the elements of strife and
.
anarchy that relgned in the new country.
THE DAILY E YENIN
He found Csdiforniai a grand Tammany
Hall, androse rapidly. ,•'• ,' •
In two years he became 'lke -Riasident of
the Senate; in 'seven years he vies- chosen.
Senator, defeating . Me. GAlnit,' but ,v3ith a
melodramatic:idea of revenge, showing'that
v
the Bowery taint was ; still in i . the veins of
the Senator, and that he had ot forgotten
the education of the Ninth rd, allowed
the, election of Gwin as his colleague on
condition. that he".would' write a letter of
submission, and would claim no patronage
from the President. ; A man base enough
to make such a promise was, base enough to
break it. Gwin came to - Washington; and
was admitted to the confidence of the Pre
sident. Broderick became at once the
enemy of the man ' who had broken the
melodramatic oath, and of a President who
refused to be bound iby a contract made in
the legislative lobbies of Sacramento. He
was ripe for rebellion; and went with joy to
antiLLecompton. With his broad, earnest
face, his deep, grey eye, his sad, half-shy
manners, his coarse hands and large bones,
in morals an ascetic,! in scholarship a neo
phyte, in politics a man determined to win,
he was the impersonation of. what Ameri
cans call pluck. $
Among those who stood at his side on the
gangway of the California steamer was John -
B. Raskin, then a ruddy-faced young law
yer, whose name was occasionally men
tioned in the newspapers as a member of
Democratic Ward Committees. /In his
veins ran the blobd-of Dutchmen .who had
lived for 200 years by the side of the Harlem
river. But more pleasing than tending
sheep on his *fathea''s acres was the 'noise
and excitement of New York politics. This
man rose rapidly:l until herepresented the
home of his ancestors in Congr t- -. Brode
rick was energy—Haskin and: ty.. Brode
-1 rick had immense respect for:. ganizationa
Raskin loved to break "rings' and smash
"slates." If there had been no sin in Mr.
Buchanan's course,the tendene • of Haskin's
nature would have sent him in o opposition
before the end of his first term. i
From,the moment be joined the : is . ce,
there was no rest. Others might he•itate.
He went forward like a busy, restless spirit,
hunting up recruits, stimulating the weak,
denouncing the treacherous, going with the
'Republicans in organizing the House. John
W. Forney, Mr. Buchanan's life-long friend,
I and a man of resolute, earnest nature, a
keen judge of the motives of human action,
an agreeable speaker and superb politician,
joined the alliance, as well as John Hick
naan,Of Pennsylvania, an orator and think
er, an earnest, thoughtful man, who never
rose in his seat but, with his haggard,
grizzly face, his incisive, deliberate, dis
secting sentences, commanded the attention
of the llous4'Re went with Forney to the
Republican party without, we think, taking
part in the intermediate comedy of "sup
porting Douglas,"
Hurricanes
The awful hurricane of last Octob, .
which swept the entire Gulf coast and de
vastated the West Indies, was as terrible as
it was unexpected. From the beginning
of August till the equinox, close observers
of atmospherical phenomena had noted all
the indications of a mighty tempest; but as
time flew by, they began to allay their
fears with the persuasion that the elements
had scattered their fury in the remote re
giens away to the north and north-west
ward. At length the storm burst without
forewarning, but with unexampled fury,
along the course of the Gulf stream. The
works of man and the more permanent ob
stacles of nature fell before its giant influ
ence like paSteboard—fleets of merchant-.
men were swept away; rocks that had
towered since the creation, in frowning
grandeur over the ocean tides, left no vest
ige of their existence, and the surface of
some islands was materially changed.
It is a singular fact that hurricanes - sel
dom cross the equator; they prevail more
particularly, and with the greatest fury, in
the torrid zone north of the equatorial line;
and also' occur in the temperate zones,
either independently, or proceeding from
the torrid zone. These terrible commotions
of the atmosphere are naturally objects of
special interest to navigators and to lands
men dwelling in the regions' where they
prevail, whose . lives and property they
endanger. Until the present century, they
were looked , on as destructive currents of
the atmosphere moving onward in a direct
course, exhibiting whirls and eddies anal
agous to those seen in impetuous torrents
of water. Franklin himself did not , un
derstand their nature. Men of science in
every country since 1800 have devoted a
great deal of their attention to
the nature of hurricanes, and amongst
Americans we can mention the dis
tinguished names of Espy and Bache
who have done a great deal towards eluci
dating the mysteries of hurricanes,,and pro
viding means of avoiding their baleful
effects. One of the most destructive on re
cord passed over the Windward Islands in
1858, being of extraordinary violence in
Bermuda, raising the sea into mountainous
waves, which swept all obstacles before
them. Most of the Atlantic hurricanes com
mence east of the Windward Isles, proceed
ing northwest towards the American coast,
curving towards the north and following a
course nearly parallel with the coast. The
great Cuba hurricane of October, 1845.
lex
tended from Honduras ver Cuba and be
yond Newfoundland.
The experience ariner, who under
stands the laws orttraie storms, avails him
self of the outer winds they bring along to
waft 'himself out of their traelt;'but the
inexperienced navigator may be carried
around in their circuits, as in a whirlpool,
for days.
Ofthree hundred and fifty-five hurricanes
noted in Havana, from 1493 to 1855, five
occurred in January,' seven in February,
eleven in March, six in April; five in May,
ten in June,forty-two in July, ninety-six in
August,. eighty in Semptember, sixty-nine
in October, seventeen in November and
seven in' necember.
A easeful captain can; in most cases,avoid
the fury of a hurricane by obeying the
dir'ections laid down by Redfield. Reid,
Maury and others, who have studied the
peculiarities of those phenomena, and
whose books on' that subject are of the ut
most interest, not only to the mariner, but
to. all who . are curious tb penetrate the
secret workings of nature inc her grandest
mood.—.N. 0. True Delta.

ST. Lours, Dec. 16.—The ice gorge in' the
river below the city gave way this after
noon, and the ice swept past the city with
tretnendous pbwer, sinking or seriously
damaging a dozen steamers , and a number
of barges, involving a loss of about $300,000.
The following axe some of the steamers that
were sunk: Geneva, valued at $25,000;
Rosetta, $20,000; Calepee, $35,000; High

at $25.000, both . fully insured; Omaha,

Tbe. Director has the honor to announce a brief
season of the
GRAND (Triple) ITALIAN OPERA cOMPANT,
with the entire Grand Chorus and Orchestra
OPENING NIGHT—MMIDAY, January ist, 1888
The season embraces, the appearance of all the
artists who have been presented in New• York daring
the vast two months. and a once presents
AN EINSEMBLE TO BE NOWHERE EQUALED IN
-
THE WORLD:
Deliberateattention is dlrectod toss comparison of
theirelativestrer gth and repute of the Artists, Chords,
Orchestra and repertoire announced for the season,
with thoseof thegrand Italian Operas of London, Paris
urdthe Vcrettnerit'Of Europe.
To achieve a company of such wonderful excel
lence has required the most astute Pamir de Cimpres
sario MARETZEIC, backed with a financial success
such as has never been operatically-attained on this
umtirrent.
To induce such a company to leave the ground of
its continuing triumph is an essay hitherto haat
tempted.
To-day it would nave been Impossible, That one
should offerinducements to a grand opera, installed in
the largest opera house in the world, with seats
selling for its chief opera at five hundred per cent. pre
mium, appears beyond reason. The Director is, how
'ever, entirely indebted to the good fortune which,
with moderate- foresight, enabled him to close a con
tract with frapressario Maretzek for brief seasons in the
principal American cities at a date of several months
Especial attention is directed to the following
lists of 'grand artists to be presented during this brief
season:

with which it was sustained, but for unusual freedom

has also effected engagements with the following great

Few cons pan ies have possessed morepopolar strength

content to risk a season in any capital in Euriape.
Belying. however, en the well known liberality of the

should lead, father than follow, in the fullness of its
personnil, th e Director has engaged the following

• Ever - y Student
To have an interest in Evert
enterprise as a stockholder,
and to become the patron of an Institution which, by
its character and permanence. shall be an honor tothe
city and its founders.
Proposition.
I hereby propose to issue to all qualified applicants
for instruction In the Full Commercial Course in the
QUAKER CITY BUSINESS COLLEGE,
Transferable Scholarships, _
TO THE NIIMBEICOF
TWO' THOUSAND.
Endoned with a contract to give each original holder
all the privileges of the Ins' itutiont, until he sball have
completed the prescribed cours e , t ivilh the tight after
wards, or before (providing h surrender his' right
thereto),to assign the same for 1 full value to a second
person, who shall be entitled he same course. it
being understood and agreed that I.shen two persons
shall have so received the benefits of the scholarship
it shall then be deemed canceled.
The object of making this proposition is to increase
the facilities and usefulness of the institution, to guar
antee its permanence. and identify it mare closely with
the enterprise and spirit of the City of Philadelphia as
a city of schools and colleges, where general educa
tional interests receive their just appreciation and
liberal support; and I pledge myself to carry oat the
plan and purpose of erectinga building for the accom
modation of the institution, which shall beau that can
be desired in architecture, dimensions and conveni
ences for the object intended.
It is apparent that the success of the enterprise will
depend upon a large increase of patronage, and if the
rate of Increase shall not be deemed sufficient, I re
serve to myself the right to discontinue the issue of
these scholarships at any time yet, without prejudice,
to the rights of any who hold those already issued.

ADVANTAGES OF THE SO EM
First.—linder no Circumstances can it be any disad
vantage to the Student., lnasmucn as he will receive
his instruction at the same price as has heretofore
been charged. and whatever be may afterward re
ceive for his scholarship will be really a gift on the
part of the propriet.is. If he dispose of it at ha cost,
hb.course of Instruction will cost him nothing.
becona.—The echeme is entirely practicably, as int
success - will require lesT th an three timeethe patronage
enjoyed by this Institution during the past ylar.
Third. Whether is be eventually carried out or not,
the student will be equally the gainer, for the contract
with him will remain good at all events, and his
scholarship will be redeemable as above proposed.
Fourth.—Parents and Guardians having sons and
wards to educate-In the future can save money by
taking scholarships for them in advance of the time of
their entering.
Fit oung men without the necessary means to
pay for a course of instruction, can borrow of those
able and milling to aid them, assigning their Scholar
ships as security.
Sixth—Any person interested in the snccemof any
worthy young man who May need assistance, can pur
chase for him a Scholarshili. and reserve to himself
the benefits to be derived from its subsequent sale.
Such an investment would be a very acceptable pre
sent from a Merchant to a faithful employe. Let the
Merchants of Philadelphia remember this at the ap
proaching holidays
Seventh,—The Charter of the Col'ege, and an ar
rangements already made for its continuance In the
bands of Trustees, afford a guaranty of its perms
nence, and at any time during in existence these
Scholarships must be redeemed according toNAgree.
