In the use of this right strangere are bound to observe the laws of the country through which they may pasa, and to respect the persons, property aod rights of the inbabitents; while, on the other band, it is the duty of the government of the territory to ‘exterd to them its protection against local attack or hindrance.

Before the local government appeals to tax- ation of the transit trade for the purpose of enabling it to perform its duties, it shouid ex- haust all the means resorted to by well-governed | pations to sustain the barthens of the State. Let it reestablish ite tariff upon merchandise im- ported for consumption ; Ict it organize a mode- rate and equitable tax upon real estate ; and Ist it impose those just contributions which are laid purposes, If it does this it will not find that the presence of cowmerce and travel in its territories The concourse of trade brings with it employment for labor and | the means of obtaining supplics of articles not produced, while it affords a market for the pro- | other nations.

When Mr. Oliver failed, some moaths ago, not only the Liverpool papers, bat several of the merebante alro came out with certificates to prove mercantile public at large could find out how matters really stood. ‘The intelligent reader will at once be struck by the striking reeemblance between the policy of the Liverpool papers and that of our priaci- pal cotemporarics in New York. They abuse us for teiJing the truth about the railways and the sheet abuses the London 7imes for daring to dis- close the fact that a Liverpool merchant has cheated his creditors They, like the Liverpool papere, would bave a charitable cloak thrown over the shortcomings of New Yorkers, and the merchants of the West and the South and the East and of foreign countries left to find out the troth in any way they cold. Commerce is thus perceived to be a long way bchind politics and the administration of jastice. There was a time when it was believed to be quite Imporsible to govern a country safely if “licentions presses” were enffored to speak their mind about public affairs Even at the preeent day— though the example of this country and England has rather shaken, public faith ia the doctrine—the Emperor Napoleon would not consider hie throne rafe unless he had all the editors mozzled ; but in this country no politician in bis cane mind would object to the fullest and freest dvscnesion of public affairs in the journals of the country It helictod to be imposible to attain the So in the courte of justice. one ends of justice if the press were allowed to re- port trials, and severe penalties were inflicted on bold editors who insisted on supplying their readers with truthful reporta.

Tbe commanding officers of the squadron, the engineers and clectricians engaged in the enterprise, have made reports to the directors which established the most satisfactory resulta, By reference to these reports, which will be found in another column, it will be seen that there are no nautical or pbysical obstacles in the way of asvectesful issne to the und-rtaking. No under currents have been found to exist on the plateau upon which the cable is to rest, The cable has been proved, according to the evgineers, precisely suitable in material, con- struction, gravity and flexibility for the intended purpose. The electricisns pronounce, as the result of their experience, that the immense pres- sure of water to which the cable was subjected in the deep sea did no injary whatever to the | insulation, and they would suggest no improve- ment in the form of the cable. In the eecond attempt it will be neceseary to have three thousand miles of cable on board the vessels; that is, five hundred miles more than before, for it has been proved that on the last occasion two hundred and fifty-five miles of cable were paid out while the ship was traversing two bundred and fourteen nautical miles, showing a waste of forty-one miles in one-tenth of the whole distance. An impression was abroad in Eagland that the Tclegraph Company had been induced to sell the cable for the use of the telegraph line from Malta to Alexandria, by the offer of a large price and a promise to lay down the Atlantic cable at government expense next June. This statement is the latest news we have, aud we suppose, therefore, that the report of the London Times of the 24th ult, that tbe cable would be laid next month, is incorrect. We cannot but view the postponement for another year in the light of a calamity. THE LATEST NEWS. Affairs in Washington.
