A PACIFIC REPUBLIC
The New York Herald and some other eastern
papers have a remarkablo faculty for getting ap
startling news. One day they will tell us tka*
an autograph letter has been received by the
President from the Emperor of Russia, commu
nicating intelligence of a grand conspiracy of
European monarchs for tho utfer destruction of
this country. The people aro expected to bo
overwhelmed with alarm at the announcement.
After waiting a few days to allow ns to recover
our senses, and get calm again, out comes the
equally astounding disclosure that a great aid
powerful party has been formed in California
and Oregon, having for ita secret and principal
purpose the dismemberment of tho Uoion, and
tho formation of a Pacific Repnblio, to be com
posed of Washington, Oregon and part of Utah
Territories, California,'and Lower California,
Bonora, and, in fact, tho whole Pacific slope of
the continent, from tho summit of the Rocky
mountains to the Bhorcs of tho great ocean.
Tho territory described as thus destined to be
come nn independent and rival republic, is
larger than tho whole thirty-ona States of the
Colon now organized. This, of course, is
starling nows, and is expected to take excitablo
people “light out of their boots. M Whether
there is any foundation for the report; —■
whetber it carno from California, or w is manu
factured in the Herald office or at Washington,
Is another matter: and a matter, too, that ii
takes some time to,settle.
That there are some people in California tl at
talk of and even propose such a thing, is true;
bat that any considerable portion of the popu
laticnof that State entertain any serious thought
or wish of tho kind cannot be believed. Some
of the California papers pronounce the project
•visionary and absurd, and no paper that we have
seen or heard of favors tho idea. This Is pretty
satisfactory evideneo that no largo party there
entertains any such desiga.
Bnt the Herald's announcement may have
be 2D got op by interested parties to promote a
purpose the Californians have In view. Lirge
appropriations of money have been already
made by the federal government to be expended
in California. The sea coast and the ports of
that State need expensive fortifications- The
harbors need coßtly improvements. The &ca
port cities want custom houses, bonded ware
houses and post office buildings. The channels
of the rivers need clearing oat; and post roads
and liberal mail facilities arc demanded. Above
all, the Californians want a railroad across the
continent, terminating at San Francisco. As
we receive forty or fifty millions worth of gold
from that State annually, they claim that the
government 6ball treat their great and rich
State with special liberality that it shall give
money with a bountiful hand for all the pur
poses above mentioned ; nod especially that it
shall give liberal material aid to tbe construe
tion of tbe Paoific railroad. The last Congress
granted very large sums for somo of these
objects ; and tbe next Congress will be called on
for still larger sums. A threat of secession—
some talk occasionally about an independent
Paoifio republic, may very materially aid in ee
curing these appropriations ; and the New York
Herald \b just tho right medium for such an
nouncements. Congress will give bountifully if
the members can be frightened with the idea of
gnoh a dismemberment of the Union.
Too Booth has played the eamo oard repeat
edly, and with great success ; and we may ex
pect an occasional repetition of the stratagem
from the West. No one will object to large ap
propriations for California purposes. It is dea
tined to become one of the greatest and
wealthiest States of tbe republic. It will at no
distant day contaia three or four million people ;
and San will rival New York. The
coasts and harbors of that State arc exposed ;
and in the event of a war with a maritime na
tion, they wotfld have no protection but the
strong arms of its people. Stroog fortifications
are needed, and should be supplied at any cost.
The F&cifio railroad is needed ; and if a threat
of seoession will hasten its commencement and
completion, the country will be benefitted by the
stratagem.
From ail accounts, however, there is no danger
of aotoat secession. Tbe Californians know
their interests too well to seek a separation ; and
public sentiment there is said to bo averse to
the project.
AN AUSTRALIAN REPUBLIC
The Australians have taken advantage of old
mother England’s occupation in the war with
Russia, and have resolved to set up for them
selves. There is a large republican party in
that vast region, aod they are now in arms for
independence. The English papers treat it as
a mere “ local disturbance but it looks very
much like a “disturbance” similar to that
which commenced at Lexington eighty years
ago, and ended in founding a new nation, and
inaugurating a new era in tho politioal history
of our race. Whether tbe Australians are yet
stroog enough to triumph in tbe contest for in
dependence, as the Americans did, is doubtful.
But the independence of that country, and the
establishment of a free Australian republic, can
only be delayed for a time, not ultimately pro
tented. It will be free, and beoome a great na
tion. Tbe Island of New Holland is, we be
lieve, nearly two thonsand miles long, and some
ten or twelve hundred in width. Van Dieman’s
Laud and other large islands lie near to it; and
they are destined to be ouvered with a hardy
and free population of tbe Anglo Saxon stock.
The climate, the soil, tbe goldmines, and all the
natural products of those vast islands invite
settlers; and tbo population is rapidly in
creasing.
There are causes now at work that will tarn
the tide of emigration to a groat extent from
Bngland, Ireland and Scotland towards Austra
lia, »nd even from the United States. Australia
U on the opposite. Bide of the globe from us ;
But even there our freo political principles have
taken firm root; and the example of our repub
licanism will soon be followed in that far off
r**lm. Sueoew to the—* 4 rebels.”

The Empire St&io being “hardup," Is looking
about to see in what way the needful oan bo most
easily raised. Ilcr expenses this year alone are
$171,0311 above her revenues, and this is expect
ed to be largely increased dating the next fiscal
yoar. In 1851, through a mistaken spirit of
liberality, the New York Legislature removed
the imposition of tolls upon the groat through
lines of Railroads, and thus put them upon an
eatire equality with the Erie Canal. The result
of that more was a steady decrease in tolls on
the Canal, while the Railroads on the other hand
is increased in an even greater ratio. In 1552
the reveoues of the Canals were $3,179, 145 ; In
1873 do do $3,108,540 ; in 1854 do do $2,088,-
Go'». L'Aat year the actual touunge oa the Canals
daring that period dicreaif-i 81,901 tons, and
their revenues uecreaafd $431,1 u 2, while the too
nazo on tho three great through Railroads alone
inertaud 810,452 tons, and their revenues from
, freight alone increased $1,520,088.
In view of these facts and to provent the State
from being thrown in the market as a borrower
to pay the interest on her debt, Qov. Clark re
oimroonds a re-imposition of the tolls on Rail
road?. It is only to be in force while canal navi
gation i? open. Whether such a law can bo pass;
ed in opposition to tho wishes of threo such
mammoth corporations as ibe Railroads in ques
tion remains to be seen.

is to be located in Meadville—should tho bill

Bov?rnor Nos. 4, 5 and 0 have already passed
the Senate, and the York County Rent merely
ftskd an increase of capital. It is whispered
among the knowing ones at Harrisburg that tho
Governor will undoubtedly apply the veto to a
number of these institutions, shoold they be to
fortunate as to pass the Senate.
A Fpneral Tutxt —A piece of sharp praotice
of a novel kind was perpetrated in Philadelphia
tin other day, by a youth of sixteen. He went to
the house of a gentleman where a funeral was
taking plaoe, and made himself very offioious
in taking charge of matters —bringing in chairs
from tho neighboring houses, showing people
where to be seated, &0., &c. The family thought
he had been sent by the undertaker, and the un
dertaker supposed he was employed by them ;
so, between them, the young scamp had it all
bis own way. After the faneral oortege had de
parted, he weut up stairs and helped himself to
sundry articles of jewelry. He was subsequent
ly identified, when ho confessed he had previous
ly played tho funeral game with euooess, on ono
occasion obtaining two twenty dollar gold pieces.
This is certaiuly tho last “ dodgo ” out.

Peace not Desired*
[From the London Times of February 27th ]
Mr.. BrigUt-most-oloquentiy expressed tlie.
other night in the Iloasc of Commons bis earn
est hope that advantage would be taken, of tbo
earliest opportunity afforded by the negotiations
at Vienna to concert a suspension of hostilities,
to oonclnde an armistice with the CDcmy, and to
stop an effuaioit'.of blood flpon the field nf bat
tle, or within the walls of .Sebastopol. "Wo re
gret that we cannot share neither his expecta
tion or bis desire. The question is not what
feot the negotiations at Vienna may have upon
tbo events of the war, bnt, on the contrary,
what effeot tbo events of tho war may have on
the negotiations at Vienna - From tho moment
that tho groat objects of this coulee; are attain
ed and tho preliminaries of peace are signed
on honorable and satisfactory tormß we yield to
no man in tho desire that hostilities may ba ar
rested in their dreadful and sauguinary courso
But the neoesßitiee of war compel us to look as
well to the objects we are pursuing aa to the
means by which they can be obtained. Wo
knew beforehand that war cannot be carried on
without enormous sacrifices, not only of wealth
and power, but of life and cf ull that consti
tutes the happiness and welfare of man. But
when the nation resolved to engage in war, it
had in view objects which it conceived to be
worthy of these great efforts and of this costly
price; and it would be puerile to stop short or
to suspend our exertions in mid career, simply
because the losses and tho hardships of the al
lied armies had been far greator than had been
anticipated. That, indeed, would be the worst
mennß of permanently rescuing the world from
the horrors of war, for it would dermnatrato a
weakness of purpose which has never bn*n im
puted to t .is uation. Wo require, on the con
trary, success to give effect to our effjris, and
to sccuro tbo results of tho heroic Übors rmd
sufferings 0/ our army, and we believe that the
cause of peace will be more 1 Heolually served
by an energetio renew,il of military operations
than by a temporary nod illusory suspension of
hostilities.

We hereby certify, that during the lust twelve xont]
we bare used Hopper’ * Pat nt Piune, aud do not hesitate
to recommend It to Cabinet-Makers and Carp-ntcrs as su
perior .o any other Plane In us-*. We couslier it peculiarly
adapted to planing oak, cherry, walnut, nod ail sorts of
hard wood, aud for planiug vene ra, it n fkr superior to
tbe old m d* • f scraping, besides being a great saving ol
time. One man, by uslLg tt.is plnoe, will j-lane note
veneers than bve men cnt» do by any oilier nlune or m thod
in use. ' H. 11. Ktan A Co.
To Mcres F. Eaton, Kfq :
Dkclt Sir —I have examined Hopper's Patent Bench
Plane, and believe it to be a most excellent article for the
use for which it i» intended, aa a combination Oi plane and
scraper.
It ia particularly adapted to planing veneers, and it does
not rcqui. e one-fourth the time or labor cf the old method;
and I have no doubt, when its properties become generally
known, but that It will entirely upersede the iormer te
dious and laborious custom.
I moat cheerfully reoommend it to all persons engaged in
the Cabinet business, as from my knowledge of it, there is
nothing us well fitted to give a smooth ami oeaatlful finish
to veneers as the Hopper Patent Bench Plane.

preserve the youthful color and appearance of the hair,

such recommendations In its favor, wo hardly perceive how
any lady .or gentleman should be without to valuable an
adjunct to the toilet. Persons who have used it trom the

From the Editor of the Real Estate Advertiser, 27 School at
Boston, March 20, 1854.
Prop. Wood: Dear Sir—Having becomo prematurely
quite gray, 1 was induced some six weeks fince, to make
triblot'yoar Hair Restorative. 1 have used less than two
bottles, but the gray hairs hare all disappeared; and a!
though my hair has not fully attained its original color,
yet tho process ot change is gradually going on, and I have
great hopes that, in a short time, iay hair will bo as dark
os formerly. I have also been much groiified at tho healthy
moisture and vigor of the hair, which before was harsh and
dry, &sd it has ceased Co come out as formerly.
Respvctfully Yours, I>. CM. RuPP^
Pnor. Wood: Dear Sir—My hair commenced falling off
Fome three or four pears since, aud continued to do so until
I became qaite bald. I tried ati the popular remedies of the
day, but to no effect; at last I was induced to use your cel
ebrated Hair Restorative, and am very happy to say it is
doing wonders. I have now a fine growth of young hair,
and cheerfully recommend its use to alt slmilurly afflicted.

I have used Prof. 0. J. Wood’s Hair Restorative, and have

thought, prematurely pray, but by the use cf hl3 Restora

permanently so. Stdkxt Bsiexsx,

Restorative, I will state, for whomsoever it may concern,
that I have used It, aod known others use it; that I bavo
for several years been in the habit of using otbur Hair Re
storatives, and that I find yours vastly superior to any other
I know. It entirely cleanses the head of dandruff, and
with one month’s proper us* will restore any person’s hair
to the original youthful color and texture, giving it a
healthy, soft, and glossy appearance, aud all this without
discoloring tho hauls that apply it, or the dress i'll which
it drops. 1 vroniJ, therefore, recommend its use to every
one desirous of having a fine color and texture to hair.
