the attention of your readers teethe ad
vertisement of the . Pittsburgh Leader,
and recommend it as a proper paper for
support.
The editors of the GAZETTE have shared
in their correspondent's feeling of indig
nant ,surprise at the appearance of the
offensive paragraph. It found its way
into our columns without first meeting
the supervision of the responsible Editors,
who would not have failed to suppress it.
When we say that its terms of laudation
were wholly unmerited, and in point of
firia. untrue in either amoral, political, or
a business sense, and equally at variance
with the known opinions of the editorial
,_
management of the Gazxrrs, we need
scarcely add any other expression of our
own regret for the publication. We
thank our correspondent for this oppor
tunity to disavow it altogether.
BUSINESS WITH THE PACIFIC.
The first through train, from the West
ern coast, reached Omaha on Saturday
with five himdred passengers. We do
not suppose that the regular business of
the next twelve months will show a daily
average of more than one-tenth this
amount of travel. But it is' as equally
certain to show a daily, weekly and
monthlydncrease, and with each returning
year, a rapidly swelling tide of traffic
which ere long will tarthe utmost capaci
ties of the great Continental artery. With
the fatigues of the transit alleviated,its per
ilsaltogether dissipated, and the formida
ble interruptions from the wintry elements
obviated, the railway must ultimately mo
nopolize a very large ehare of the business
of our North-west coast., winch has
hitherto been conducted across the Isth
mus of Panama. Much of this business
has pertained to the interior districts of
our Pacific States, with an expensive, and
often tedious, transit between such points
and their nearest sea-ports. For so much
of it, the railway route will be preferable
at once, while Its greater speed; and the
lower cost by which it is to be
marked, will also commend it to - the
travel, and trade
. oohe maritime cities..
The Panama route" in 1867 transported
property valued at 01,000,0001 twoethirds
of which was Eastward bound, and more
than half of it in the precious metals There
were also thirty-five thousand passengers
in the same year, which wwild average

way will stimulate - as speedy and litige
an increase of this travel, as ;we hare In
v& tY l l:494seen to - follow the development
of that system in our inter-State business
nearer home. - It is not all di our
readers who have an adequate Idea .
of the . great changes which have
thus been brought about, even
in this generation, in ' the in
tacommquicatiou of our own States and
neighborhoods. But there are many who
will remember the stagelines which,
twenty live years , t sinee, were ample for
the carriageof a score of daily passengers
fro/ the West, Pittiburgt, eastward
across the Alleghenies. -It is not so long

daily trains bearing twice az many bun- I

any one to see a daily transit of at least

railway within Liffey, years time. And

REAPOI4BII3ILITT FOR, GEORGIA.
Georgia fa - rnishes us with a . ally re
mi. ort e. of T he citisen y s ic as ura sass is in al ate i d ay fo s r
an opi tr ni n o i n o ' n s
man, and sometimes it is his dark skin
which renders his presumption, in daring
to rise above the prescription of men who
are no longer his masters, an unpardon
abiel and fatal offence. Georgia is the
1
one remaining black blot upon theother
rise regenerated face .of the South.
And why? Whose fault is it? What
party is answerable to just censure, for
a condition of things in that State, which
ah
'regates constitutions, defies all law,
tramples npitn' every personal right, and
fractically blasts for that people all the
good fruits of a great struggle, in
which it is the popular idea that
Liberty and the Law triumphed
over all opposition. • The lesson taught
to intelligent observers by current events
affords I a palpable answer. Murder,
whether by secret assassination or with
the open defiance of mobs, is as much a
legal crime to-day in Georgia as it has
ever been, before 1861 or since. The
laws of that State furnish the same clear
definition of indiVldual rights, in life,
limb or property, as they ever did, and
the same penalties are still' prescribed for
any violation thereof. The theory of
their local government is as perfect in
these respects as it need be, for the
amplest protection of the humblest,
or even of the most obnoxious,
citizen, so long as he himself obeys the
Irecti -- "• which he looks for his own safe
guards.' Yet, persOnal outrages, for po
/lltical causes, and of every deep shade of
villainous atrocity, are daily perpetrated,
and go daily unpunished, in a State
which has nominally two governments,
and cannot realize the shadow of those
benefits which either one of them should
confer upon every individual citizen. And
this state of things, if left unchecked,
promises to be-worse before it Is better.
Where is the fault ? Where is the rem
edy ?
We have always regretted the failure of
Congressto settle the muddle in the polit
ical status of Georgia. That which is now
neither a firmiand impartial military con
trol as over an unorganized State with a
confessedly still rebel population, nor an
energetic, faithful and responsible State
Government, duly chosen and cordially
snirported by' the people themselves.
might have been converted, by twenty
well'ehosen words of Congressional in
tervention last winter, into either one
or the other of the needful and sufficient
farms of public .autherity which should
be felt, respected and obeyed. But
Congress flinched from its clear
line of duty, and Georgia experienced a
condition of things which verges closely
upon a social and political anarchy. Be
cause Congress might have prevented
this, it does not follow that Congress Is
to be held wholly responsible for the con
tinuing disorders. The greater fault is
decidedly to be attributed rather to the
incompetency pf a State authority which
may be - the government de jure but is not
so in fact—because, although it has legal
ly the requisite preroi main
tenance of the last local
laws, it must look dary
aid of the Federal I t the
authority which is I by
the people—and Got ;it has
neither the nerve Weal
honesty to ask for tl ,e Con
gress did what it slit done
in partially admitting ) Un
ion, and did not do what it ought to
to have done in prompt turning out
its half reconstructed rehels upon the
discovery of their blundering duplicity,
there is no law to-day under which the
Federal Administration can interpose
for the protect* of her peaceful citizens,
- except upon the reguide red the bastard
State government over laich Butd.ocir
'presides. And this Gove or has not,prob
sly dare not, make tha requisition for
military aid which axis big formalities
prescribe. The Fres dent is, help
less, and the Govern° is worthless,
because he can but will of put down the
lawless violence which now rampant
throughout Georgia. ' e responsibility
foithis state ot thingsroperly belongs
therefore to Governor B moused'y.
So long as he remains , e Chif Magis

A DIRECT ROAD i DENVER.
The Kansas Pacific ' . ilway--formerly
known as the Union l' sale Railway,
Eustern Division, bu • the name Wail
changed by act . of Oen_ • at the last
session—now terminate. at e, little impro
vised town on the p 1 . called Sheridan,
four hundred and Ave rettles west of 'XVI'
Ball city. At that point ihaerongreisidop l
subsidy of $lB,OOO per mile in national,
bonds ceased, and the-work had been ma
ipended for abenia*r. Neve** _ ld '

commercial centre or even 'settlement,i
its operation during the past year -has
been profitable, its gross earnings having
amounted to $1,910,162; - its operating ex
penes, repairs, &c., to $1,036,494; leav
ing a net revenue of $873,668. Of the
gross earnings, $487,920 were for gov
ernment transportation, consisting of
freight, troops and mails, and $1,422,242
arose from the ordinary railroad business
of freight and passengers.
Such a degree of success on a new and
unfinished road, in a new country, pens
..
trating the 'Veins nearly two hundred
miles beyond the present border of popu
lation, is a most triumphant vindication
of the wisdom of the location of this
road to the Pacific, and attests the amus
ing progress of population and business
in Kansas.. Yet Congress, having lay- 1
Ished millions and scores of millions
;
upon the more northern line by way of
the Platte and Salt Lake, has shut down
open this. road and left it sticking fast in the
very heart of the great . II
plains. But na-
tional generosity or enterprise, like the
ocean, has its floods and its ebbs; and per
haps Congress in this case but responded
to what was the popular sentiment forthe
moment, and did right in so doing.
At all events it has happened to turn out
well; for) now enterprising capitalists,
seeing that it is a first-rate enterprise,
have stepped forward and taken the work
in hand without Congressional aid,
other than a grant of lands along the line
of the road—lands which, without a road,
are absolutely worthless—and the work
will be immediately resumed and ener
getically prosecuted. ,
We do not
an say that these capitalists 1 1
are going to pick up this gigantic enter
prise and push it on to the Pacific; but' ,
they are prepared to carry the main line I I
from Sheridan to Cheyenne Wells, a dill-
tance of about sixty.miles, and then, from 1 1
that old trading point, construct a branch I I
road t to Denver, a distance of about 175 1
1
miles. This branch will pass through the I
best part of the territory of Colorado, and
through or near to extensive coal fields
and pine forests, and terminate at the em
porium and centre/of the great mining
districts of that territory. The Omaha or
Platte road runs near to the northern bor
der of that territory, but does not touch
it; while this road will penetrate to its
centre, and through its richest and most I I
1
productive part..
Prom
Prom Cheyenne Wells the main line to
the Pacific will bear off in a Southwestern I I
diiection, through New Mexico and Ari
zona, over a route that has been carefully
surveyed and tound to be good, and in a 1 1
climate than which there is none more ea.
lubrious and delightful in the world. It
is a route that will never be interrupted
by snows, and every past of which will
be enlivened by 'agricultural or mining
activity, and consequently the road, like
that through Kansas, will have a large
and ever-increasing, way traffic. No road
of any considerable length can he ope
rated profitably withoutthat.
But it II not to be expecteilthat private
enterprise, unaided by government, can
for a long time to come grapple with this
greater enterprise; yet it is a great point
gained to have the Kansas road extended
to Denver, and to an immense area of the
richest part of the Rocky Mountain range.
There is gold-bearing quartz enough in
that region to give profitable employment
to many thousands of men, and there will
soon be a marketAhere for food, clothing,
machinery and a thousand other things
which will give prosperity to many other
thousands. - We, here in Pittsburgh, with
our water and railway communication
direct with Kansas City, have a deep in
terest In this work; and the day is not .
distant when .our commercial relations
with that , neiir l est of our great gold fields
will be close, intimate, and immensely
remunerative. ,
This Denver branch runs • directly to
that part of the Rocky Mountains in
which is found the rarest combination of
the grand and the beautiful in natural
scenery, and probably the most salubrious ,
atmosphere to be found in the world.
When the road is completed it will be
come a favorite resort of summer tourists.'
The North, Middle and Synth Parks lie':
just back of Denver, like i)olished emer- 1
aids in the very heart of the mountains,
eight thousand - feet above tide, surrounded
by chains of peaks crowned with perpet
dal snow. , •
The same parties who pushed the Kan
sas Pacific road as far as it has gone are
carrying forward this Denver branch en
terprise, and the effect of the extension
of this great road to that:point will be to
render the entire tansfuiPaCitio road, so
far as it has been made t t one of the most
profitable in the,country. Its :local trade
in •Stinsas, together with the trade of I
New Mexico—now carried on from its
'western terminus in wagons—has already
made it a good paying road; bat with the
Denver trade superadded, together with
the lumber and coal .of the mountain
slope, and the rapidly increasing business 1
alprig its border in 11.10}18, it will very
soon be one of the most profitable roads
in the country, and convince Congress
and the people.ethat the greater work'of
pushing on through to the Pacific will!be
not only a safe butsvery profitable ope
ration..
It is the way trade, and the develop
ment of the vast wealth of the great but
hitherto 'almost inaccessible interior! of
the continent, and not the trade of China,

TILE TRUE. *RUE AMERICAN SYSTEM.
Forty-five years since, Gen. JAcksoN
wrote to D'Comrateri, of Penneyh i rania,
a letter so replete with patriotism and
common-sense, as to secure for him the
immediate adhesion and steady support
of ourlpeopielo the last remaining hour
of hie: , , political career. The exed
paragr a ph from the letter will allow the
reader Old Hickory thought of the
Amerlcan system of protection for home
industry. He said:
Takb from agriculture in t.lit United
Stater( 600,000 men women, and children,
. 1 4,1 p
and yon at once give a home market for
more readstuffs than all Europe now
Duni:tikes. In short, sir, we have been
too long subject to the Policy et British
merchants. It is time we should become
a little -more Ammicanized. * *
It is, therefore my opinion that a care
ful tariff is mu ch wanted to pay our na
tional debt, and afford us the means of
that defense within , ourselvesit which
the gaiety and li berty of our co un try de
pend, and last, though not le ast, give a
proPer,distribation to our labor,, which
mustprove beneficial to the happiness,
independence and wealth of the commii
nity.'
Faithfully in consonance with the
opinions and policy which Gen. Jackami
,
thug, Imported, the friends of protection
o
for our own labor, and of a home-market
,
for home-productions, are laboring at this
moment to expose the sophistries by which
theadvocates of s foreign competition in
these markets are, striving to embarrass
and defeat the only pound Americana
trine. For example, at a large p oc blic
meeting of the triends of domestic judos
.try, held in Philadelphia, April 29, 1869,
the following resolutions were unani
mously adopted:
Winne-as, the Congressional Commit
tee of Ways and Means is instructed to
consider the propriety of revising the
Tariff laws, and to recommend to Con
ere s 4 at its next session such legialation
upon that subject as may seem to be ex
pedient: therefore, Resolved that the fol
lowing statement be presented to the said
Committee as embodying the views of
the'productive industries of this country:
1 Ftral, That the development of our own
resources and the , firm possession of our
own markets are much more important
than foreign commerce to the welfare of
all the people of this nation, to the solv
ency of the Government, and to the at
traction of the better class of immigrants;
rind that by no other method can a dura
ble resumption of payments be at
tained than by increasing American pro
duction and checking importation.
"; Second/y, That to maintain such posses
idon of our own .markets, and thus to at
tain financial independence, we must be
able to produce at home nearly all the
Manufactured articles needed by our
people, including those which require'
;the facilities of great establishments of
;many workmen trained GO special arts,
an con s tantly pital, and we must also
b e ndertaking those new in
dustries which the advances in the arts
and the progress of civilization require.
Thirdly,- That it; is impossible for such
great establishments to prosper, for small
er ones to spring np, and for the new in
dustries to take root under a fickle and
sometimes unfriendly policy which
holds them constantly in fear of revul-
Mons. 1,
Fourthly, That las a means of promo
ting regular growth in the productive
powers of our wbotry, it is the duty of
Pthe government to announce, adhere to,
and steadfastly act upon the policy of
1 defending its citizens in their industrial
conflict with foreign nations, of assuring
to those who are supporting the govern
ment a marked preference in our markets
over aliens who are our rivals in peace
and our foes in war, and of obliging for
eigners who wish to reap the advantage
of, the better markets created by our in
stitutions, to pay toll upon the goods they
send here, andthus share the expense of
maintaining those institutions.
Fifthly, That - a - policy of firm and stea
dy protean= to American industry being
distinctly announced, ageneral tariff law
should be framed embracing the entire
range of imported goods and superseding
all former tariff laws, the duties being
made specific so far as conveniently pos
sible and high enough to afford fair
wages and reasonable - profits to such
Americans workingmen and employers
as apply themselves with assiduity, skill
and intelligence to industries suited ,to
our condition and rescUrcelif , ' 1
Sathly, ,That in order to,;diminish the ,
labor of Congress, and to expedite those ,
future modifications, in tariff legislation 1
which the development of new industries 1
or the changes of trade may from time to I
time render desirable some department, l
bureau, : or - commission , should be ;
created, specifically charged with the
duty of keeping watch over this
subject, with, authority to examine
Whammies, make 'investigations, hear
statements, and to submit to Congress at
the opening of each session a brief re
port, accompanied, when necessary, by a
draft.of a bill embodying suchlegislation
as may seem expedient.
&vent/ay, Experience having clearly
shown that the maintenance of domestic
pmduction is the only sure method.. for
reducing the prices of manufactured
goods, it is growl* unjust to the employ

lam surprised that the canard of the
triple alliance between England, France .
and Spain, should have received any cre
dence or consideration in this country.
England 'may desire allies 'against
America; disturbed Spain may grasp at
any floating straw; but the French wish
that the peace which has so long remain
ed unbroken between France and the
United States should" be continued.
These two great Powers fought side by
side against oppression and freedom in
the bud; and while serfdom darkened
the broad lands of Russia, and the black
inheritance of slavery blotted the fair
folds and dimmed the brightness of the
Star Spangled Rift - her, France could and
did foresee, as part of a new creation, this
bud of promise bursting and blossoming

destined to bloom in America. The
Emancipation Proclamation of your ev

from civilization. If that, was one of her
deatines' can she not yet claim a higher
one? Is there ncit, one awaiting her it she
extends her hand for a true triple al

Century, proclaim to the world,. 'Peace

out of a distinct purpose. We hive •

ation of bad taste and with every possible

destitute of architectural fitness. A Greek
temple stands for a custom-house, a col

by a Norman keep or anEgyptian temple;
a court-house resembles a barn or factory;
and so most of our public buildings might
be interchanged without sacrifice of or
detriment to any rule of architectural

GOVERNOR SEWARD having gone into ,
retirement at Auburn, has been strongly
pressed to improve his leisure by writing
the records of his time, and a political
history of the State of New York. The
Governor has decidedly retusedi hoiv
ever, though the publishers offered: most
liberal inducements. He says the only
literary work he will perform is the pre
paration of something in memoriam of
his deceased daughter a woman of won
derful promise, who died last year.
THE REASON WET
Dr. Bevser's Blood Searcher is the beat. It is •
computed that a man's system undergoes three .
limes a year, that is every four months, a radical
andthorongh change, that is, that at the end of
that time nothing remains in the syf tem of the
material of which it was composed before that
time. The eliminating organs carry out the
worn-out and used-up material. and new matter
is made to take its place and carry on this wfirk
lugs of the human organism. The cost offour
months treatment in this witi would 'Hot at the
outside be more than ten dollaj and frequently
the functions of life have an activity and vigor
mparted sufficient to renew them by the use of
one bottle, costir g only one dollar. No organ of
the body but will be bent:fitted by such a process.
The liver, the stomach, the kidneys, the skin,
the lungs, are all. as it were, made •over agate
by the Impetus given to the and diges
tive system—old and prostrated people whose
systems bad begun to languish and decay. have
been restored by DR. KEYSERiS BLOOD
SEARCHER to youthful health aid vigor.
Especially' is this medicine suitable at this
swoon of the year, when the dormant
powers of life, Ilse all the rest of • nature are
emerging from the chilling and torpid state
usual to the cold and wintry month!. We
know very well that all advertised medicines are
apt to be regarded as useless and nuraterY.
bat
with D. WETSER'S BLOOD SEARCHER we
feel perfectly secure la the promise tl3 at it must
do good. Country merchants and those who sup
ply others with needful things' for their wants
cannot confer a greater service than to keep :a
few bottles of tail valuable medicine on their
shelves to supply their wants. Dr. 'Keyser will
take back every half dosen that remains unsold.
It at the flame time affords the merchant a
good profit. and to those who need it, it is of
more value than sliver and gold, for what can be
of more value to man than a medicine which car•
ries health and life to the suffering Invalid?
:We earnestly entreat all who read this to try
one bottle of Dr. Geyser's Blood Searcher If they
neod such a medicine, and we will guarantee sat
isfaction. In order, howeVer, not to be disap
pointed,let them buy none but that whichhas Dr.
Kevser's name over the cork and blown in the
bottle, and in that way the Doctoi will hold him
selfresporudble Ittr its results when the directions
are closely followed.
