and eight from all other diseases, —making thir
ty-six in all.
In another part of our paper we give a copy
of the Japan treaty, which Was communicated

SENATOR BRODHEAD AND TBE
HOMESTEAD BILL.
We have received from Senator Brodhead, a
copy of bis Bpeeoh in tbe Senate, on the 15 th
insL, on the Homestead bill.
While we differ with that gentleman in his
views on that subject, we can willingly accord
tojhim great .credit for the clearness and ability
with whioh he has presented all the main objec
tions that can be urged against the measare that
is how exciting such general interest.
Mr. Brodhead sustains the President’s veto
ofjtho Indigent Insane and thinks that
some of the President's to that bill 4
apply with equal force to the! Homestead bill.
Ha considers such a disposition of tbe publio
lands as giving them, awsly without any equiva
lent or compensating benefit, which Congress has
ncj power to do. He considers the bill unjust
towards the old States whose! population, he ar
gues, will be drained off, and whose property will
be depreciated in value by the operation of such
a law. He considers it unjast towards all classes
ofl the people except tbe agriculturalist, who
alone would, under the law, take possession of
the lands which belong to the whole people;
while all the other olasses would lose the benefits
of the revenues which may bederivodfrom their
sale.
The bill provides tb&t only alternate quarter
sections' shall be given free to actual settlers.
The settlement and cultivation of oao half, tho
public lands in alternate quarter sections wou Id
certainly enhance the value'of the other half,
and the government could fiz such prices upon
the last half as it saw fit, withhold it
from sale, if it ohooses, until double the present
prices oonld be obtained. The same revenues
would thus be obtained from the lands ; nor is
the time distant when all the lands will be want
ed for settlement and cultivation.
; The settlement of onr Western domain, and
formation of now and populous States, would
necessarily inoreass importations, and the reve
lines derived from that source. It does not ne
cessarily follow, then, that the public revenues
would be diminished by, the operation of the
Homestead bill.
Frequent grants of alternate sections of the
public lands are made by Congress, to Railroad
.Companies, to aid in the construction of their
roads. This is justified on ( the grounds that
such roods, and such'disposition of the lands,
encourage settlement of the wide regions of the
yet unoccupied. Will not ibe Homestead
bill equally encourage each settlement; and pre
sent by that means the strongest inducements to
eonstruot each roads.' They will all pay good
dividends when the whole western regions are
settled. .
All classes of the people are benefitted by the
general prosperity of the country. And those
classes who would not avail themselves of the
benefits of the Homestead bill, by taking up a
quarter section of land, will yet be benefitted by
the general increase of public prosperity; by the
increased production of food, and consequent
diminution of price; and by the increase of en
terprise, pablio works and commercial activity;
and the increased demand for the manufactures
of. the older States.
It is argued that offering land at the West to
settlers and cultivators without price, diminishes
the valae of every aore of land in the older States.
Would not the same argument have had equal
force fifty years ago, before Ohio, Indiana, Illi
nois, Michigan, Wisconsin and the other western
and south-western .States were settled? Tet
who doubts that the wealth of the old Atlantic
States has been doubled by the settlement of
those western States? Snob, at least, is un
doubtedly the truth in regard to snob of the old
States as have engaged in oommerce, manufac
tures, and nearly all other occupations. , Shall
. we retard or obstruct settlements at the West for
fear those settlers and cultivators should oome in
competition with those of the Atlantio States?
- Do not the farmers at the and of the whole
country, now find ready markets at high prices
for all their surplus products ? What more can
be demanded ?
The details of the Homestead b.ill it may be
difficult to adjust' But the principle of the bill
we believe is right, and its polioy sound and safe.
That feature of the hill whioh exempts the
lands, and improvements thereon, taken up by
settlers, from being seised & D( ] Bo ld for debts, is
objected to as; unconstitutional, it i a argued
that it is in effect a bankrupt Law, applying only
to thoso lands, and the improvements made upon
them; whereas, Congress has only the right to
•j establish uniform bankrupt laws. Are all exemp
tion laws, then, bankrupt laws? Is the three hun
dred dollar exemption law of our State a bank
nipt law, or unconstitutional, on the ground that
individual States cannot enact bankrupt laws?
We do not think so. But if this objection "to the
Homestead bill is well founded,, let that danse
be so modified as to meet the spirit and letter of
." the constitution, and the requirements of justice.
The whole bill need not fall for want of one tri
fling amendment s .

Doctors Disaouesiuq.— The New York Po*t
has an article on cholera preventives, and in
the course of which it expresses what la well
known, viz: that in times of distress and anxi
ety there is more necessity for - amusement and
recreation. It says, further, that a well-con
duotad and woll-ventllated theatre m&y be looked
upon as one of the best prevent!* is of Chole

and good ventilation in a theatro is possible in

Tailing. j
We notice, on the other hand, the editor
of a paper in a Western city, where the disease
has been very fatal hitherto, some Iweeks since
recommended the Board ;of Ileaith to prohibit a
oirous exhibition; as, arjgned the eqitor, it may
superinduce Cholera, by causing; nhnatural ex
citement! He spoiled his argument the next
day, however, by publishing a call a meeting
to get up an exoitement about an .imaginary po
litical evil, and was only thwarted id his choleric
design by the difference of opinion between him
self and his subscribers. The meeting was a
failnre, —no and no cholera, —but
whether in consequence we will not say.
After all, we are rather inclined to the opinion
of the New York man, that harmless reoreation
and amusement is a preventive in. epidemic dis
ease. But exciting political gathferingg—par
ticularly of the anti Nebraska stanip, where ill
feeling is stirred np by demagogues for a bad
end,—shoald be eschewed. (
Tell toe Truth, Neighbor.—' ihe editor of
the Gazette says “the iW designates those
members of its party who ?annot| endorse the
Nebraska bill as ‘sore-headed Democrats.'
It will be obserTed that the Gazkte uses the
three lost words as annotation from our paper.
We would thank the editor of tho Gazette to tell
us where he finds those words in ouf paper, ft e
have used no such language towards those Demo
crats who do not like thq Nebraska bill. Demo
crats hare a right to think as they please on that
sobject. Bat they have no right toj distract and
injure the party, becanae.the great mass of its
members differ with them in opiniqu on that or
any other single question. Neither* have disap
pointed office-seekers a Tight to divide the party,
becaoso they were not snooessfnl inj their appli
cations. If any coaid be called “ it
is they. But wo have not used ths term. So,
th a Gazette editor’s “ democratic friend" will have
to find some other “term of opjjrobinm ” to
complain of. We belong to ,no faotiou. The
entire democratic party is the only we be
long tO. ; j
The story is a sheer fiction of the editor of
the Gazette. No democrat would i9e such lan
gcage as that editor ascribes to h a “friend.”
Does the editor of the Gazette wah to know
wliat a whig said to us about his paper, a few
days ago?
Running it into TUE GaorsD.— f-For several
years past none in New York have seen makiog
money more rapidly than the b itel keepers.
This being the eure way to wealth, a succession
of palatial bouses, certainly not exceeded and
perhaps not equalled in magnificence by any in
the world, sprung up as if by magic. The St.
Nicholas, Metropolitan, La Farge and the Pres
cott House, were all erected within tbe last three
years, and owing to tho Crystal Palace exhibi
tion and some other nnuiial causes, for awhile
did a paying business. .But these causes have
evaporated and consequently we have the report
that they are now nearly* all losing money. The
truth of tbe matter is New York Went ahead a
little too fast in tho hotel line, for some years
past, and she will have contract. People will
only indulge in the magnificence cf her hotels
while money is plenty; whenever tbe market
becomes “tight,” or there Is tho least commer
cial depression they will retrench, and hotels,
will be the first to suffer.

considered notbiog more than a “ d rty dog.”

Atmospheric J-gxEUBAm rou the Transmis
sion or Packages;— Some time ago considera
ble attention was directed (o an ingenious inven
tion for the conveyance of packages through a
tuoe, of any length, by the force of atmospheric
pressor*. At the present session of Congress
the inventor, a Mr. Ithiel S. Richardson, pre
sented a petition asking on appropriation to
construct a line between Wnshiogton and Balti
more, to test the value of the indention. A
special oommittee on the subject was appointed
by the Benate, which, after duo investigation,
has reported a bill autborizing'iho construction
of a line of this telegraph between the cities
namod, under tbo supervision of the Postmaster-.
General. It is now so late in the session, and 4
there is soimuoh other very important business
before Congress^'that it is doubtful whether this
bill can meet the consideration whioh it deserves;
but the experiment is well worth trying, as the
plan has be'en examined by scientific men and
prouosneed feasible. The electro-magnetic tele
graph'was tried between Washington and Balti
more in the same way ob is proposed in this
instance,-.and its usefulness being thus demon
strated, it was immediately extended far and
wide over the Union. Properly speaking, the
new invention is not a telegraph, but a machine
for/the conveyance of packugca The plan con
templates tbo transmission of tho mails, and
should it bo adopted for that purposo, it will
render tfae government independent of railroads,
at the same timo that far greater speed is at
tained and all danger of mail robberies during
transmission avoided.
But Two Great Pauties.—The Washington
Union says :—There are but two parties in this
country—the democratic party and the opposi
tion to that party. Tho present is ono of
those oocosions when the whig piriy passes al
moat out of men’s memory. Other names su
persede the name of whig. Other influences
rise above it. Some are for giving it up because
it has an odor of suspicion about it, others, bo
cause, liko an old garment, it has served its
day. Every little section, heretofore banded
under the name of whip, is dow setting tip for
itself; and there aro almost ns roauy. names as
there are organizations. Meanwhile tho demo
cratic party and upwright, and no
body thinks of |he overthrow or of tbo dooay of
the democratic party. The odds and ends of
faction, however, like the little peoplo in Gulli
ver’s Travels, who bind this bago prisoner with
multitudinous but tiny bonds, think that by one
common attaok they may crush it to pieces. We*,
shall see. '
Cuba and its Wealth.— Cuba, at this time
comprises a population of about 1,400,000. Of
this aggregate 800,000 aro black, 600,000 of
them being slaves, the balance free ami com
paratively a nuisance. The whole island con
tains an area of 32,000 equare miles—equal to
more than 20,000,000 acres every three of whioh
are capable, with proper cultivation, of pro
ducing one hogshead of sugar annually. In
1838 the exports of Cuba amounted to $20,000,-
000 ahd e , her imports to $25,000,000; she
yielded a revenue of $18,000,000 and the
property of the island was estimated at $BOO,-
000,000. And yet only about one-fifth of
the Island was supposed to be under cultiva
tion.
The Directors of the Baltimore and Sosqne
hana Railroad Company have removed Mr. Win
chester from the post of Superintendent, on ac
count of the late aooident.

An LCfijimu liw Was lately tried id cue of
tbe London Courts, in which Douglas Jerrold,
the nav«liit,was'defendant, and whioh has giv?n
rise to a little gpsaip,' Jerrold, It appears, is
father-in-law to Henry Mayhew, the author of
V London Labor and London Poor,” and in con
sequence of having introduced Maybew- to a
tailor, was summoned to pay for eertain gar
ments obtained by Mayhew from the “Knight of
the Goose."
TREATY
r '• - ' l .
±'A<i+*-*/".
Mayhew is very extravagant, and at the time
be contracted the debt, be wa* engaged on the
.Morning Chronicle, furnishing articles on “Lon
don Labor and London Poor," for which bo re
ceived from thirty-five to fifty dollars per week.
This waSrnot sufficient for bis purpose, and in
1862 he found bimselftn Queen’s Bench Prison,
for. not paying his creditors. This did not hurt
his'feelings, and he consoled himself with tbe
reflection that nobler and better men than be
had been there. Jerrold has paid several hun
dred pounds for him since, and vows he’ll pay
no more. In this oase, the defenoe was, that
having paid large sums of money for Mayhew
before tbe debt in question was oontraeted, he
was not likely to assume the responsibility of
this, and that he did not pledge his word, (os
the plaintiff swore,) to pay if Mayhew did not.
Here the issue turned npon a question of per
sonal veracity, and the jury took the novelist’s
word in preference to the tailor. In the course
of the trial; Jerrold was Bharply cross-question
ed, and gave some pungent answers. He was
asked his age, and stated it fifty. Mayhew is
hot eight years his junior, and is generally be
lieved to be anything but a chicken of a son in
law. He is a portly bald headed man, and evi
dently takes the world easy. A person looking
at the two, would be likely (if he did not koow
to the contrary) to take Jerrold for the son in
law, instead of Maybew, and such was the de
termination of the tailor. This makes the sec
ond case, in which a noted literary character
has been in a Westminister Court, in a suit for
money, during the past three months.

The Homestead qnsatlon la the Senate*
The friends of the Homestead principle were
very sanguine last evening that there is a ma
jority in the Senate dispoar * to pass the bill to
that end now being considered by them, with
amendments which shall not violate its main
feature of accordlngland to the landless who
will work it, on easier terms than the Govern
ment will dispose of it to others. They certainly
regard the vote of eighteen ayes to thirty noes on
tbe motion for the biU’s indefinite postponement,
as, in considerable; measure, a test question.
Few of them seem to believe it possible that the
bill will pass the Senate precisely as it went op
from the Houso] the prevailing impression being
that an Amendment oharging the actual aettler
perhaps thirty oents per acre, peyabie in a term
of years, will prevail. If so, the bill will still
embraoe the distinctive feature of makiog favor
able a distinction between the laboring settler,
and the person baying a portion of the pnblio
domain for speculation.
German Emigration.— -A writer in the Paris
Pairie, discusses at some length the subject of
;be Otman emigration from Earope to the Uni
ted States. At first, he says, the German States
saw with indifference the departure of the peas
antry and mechanics; ere long, however, the
municipal authorities and governments became
alarmed, and soon it was seen that labor and cap
ital were moving off to an extent which must be
seriously felt at home. “In 1818 the German
rulers thought of diverting, and thus lessening
the current They looked to Huogary—to the
Moldo-Wallachlan provinces—bat fonnd invinci
ble obstacles.”
The writer in the Patrie, believes that it is
possible to reoder Algeria attractive, aod tbns
secure to a colony of France tbe benefit of that
v&at tide of emigration which now sets across
the broad Atlantic to our shores.
Thieves ox the River— Daring the last trip
of tbe Highflyer to Louisville, on Friday night,
a passenger named M’Knight was robbed of a
go! J watch, $4O io cash, and a draft for $6,000.
M’Knigbt in an agent for a banking house in
.Philadelphia, aod was traveling oq busioesa con
nected with the bank. His state-room was en
tered by means of an “ootsider*” On the return
trip of tbe same boat, a gentleman uamed Smith,
from Vicksburg, and traveling cast, was robbed
of a gold watch aod $7O in American gold. It
is thought that the thieves left the boat at Law

Embargo ox Bibles—Trouble for Naugut.
—Recently tho British Foreign Bible Society
went to considerable troable and expense to
have \bc Bible translated and printed io the
laoguago of the Mongol Tartars; but the Czar of
Russia, who is the master of the Mongols, having,
in advance, forbidden its ciroalation, the whole
edition remains useless on the Society's shelves
in London. The Ctar evidently does not want
Christian civilization among .bis Tartar subjects.
Religious light Is ho’part of his system.
The Sale or Russian Vessels Nugatory.—
According to a statement made by the French
Consol at Baltimore, it is the intention of the
French Government to treat as nugatory all sales
of Russian vessels to subjects or oitizens of any
of tho tbe allied or neutral powers, during tbe
pending European war. Notwithstanding Buch
sale, tbs vessel will still be treated as belonging
to the enemy.

BALLY’S ANTIDOTE AND LOTION.—Those persons who
wish for a safe, speedy, and permanent cure, should uso
the above celebrated and unrivalled FRENCH PREPARA
TIONS. Tbey have now been in use for five years—have
been thoroughly testod in thousands of the most obstinate
cases, and invariably have given satisfaction. They are
not composed simply of Balsam Copalva, but are entirely
different from all other preparations, both lu the nature of
thuir ingredients and the manner in which they operate
upon the patient Hence tbe wonderful success attending
their use.
A gentleman connected with the Western Railroad says:
“ l have expended for other people during the last three
years over for remedies of this description, and have
never found a single article that gave such universal satis,
faction as your Antidote and Lotion does. Ido not recol
lect of their ever falling to cure Inaslngle instance. Many
have been cured in two or three days.”
Price, Antidote $1; Lotion 60 cents per bottle.
Invented by M. Bally, Physician to tbe Paris Hospitals,
and prepared from the original recipes, and sold wholesale

A. Matthews, and C. B. Lock, Esq., of Richmond, Mr.
F. Boyden, Exchange Hotel, Va 4 and a host of others, who
have seen cases of the worst description cured by Carter's
Bpacish Miftgre. They all certify that it is Urn greatest

every vtsuge of this dreadful disease in less time than any

The thousands of certificates fn the habds of the proprie

and beyond ill donbt,that Kim's Pxraoucic is a medicine
of no common value, not only as a local remedy In Rnralf

internal remedy, inviting the Investigating physfcians, as
well as the suffering patient, to beoome acquainted with Its
merits.

medicine is purely natural, and is bottled as it flows from
