On the 10th of last month tho South Wales Choral Union, numbering five hundred amateurs, under their leader, Caradoc, went from their native hills to London to compete with trained choristers and skilled musicians of Liverpool, Bristol and London. The contest was held in the Crystal Pal-acand the Welsh singers bor away the prize, in the midst of en thusiasm which cannot be understood by those who have never been in that immense glass and iron temple of the arts and sciences, and who have never heard the tremendous applause of such an audience as were gath ered on that occasion. The Prince of Wales invited the choir to Marlborough House, and a silver memorial cup was presented to them by subscription of a number of their fellow countrymen. All Wales was boiling over with delight at the triumph, and we know that the natives of tho Principality who have adopted Utah as their home, will be equally pleased to learn of the vie-- , polity. This is our theory; our practice is different. Like some popular parsons wo know something about, wo preach one thing and practice another. Where will an English Lord, a Ilussian Prince or a G erman Count, receive more fulsome adulation than in the great Republic of the Untied States. How many advenf turers, as destitute of principle as of money, have received distinguished consideration from the most radical of our countrymen, upon the solo merit of a pretended title ? And how many American girls have been deluded from homes of affluence by the glitter of a noble name, stolen by 6ome scoundrel to gain a dowry, assisted in his nefarious schemes by dazzled papas and foolish matchmaking mammas ? tory.

In these busy days of speculation the prudent commercial mind will be arrested by the significant facts to be presented in connection with the growth and prosperity ot the Amen can railroad system. It is within the memory of the leading merchants of the land, that anterior to the year 1848, there were only about six thousand miles of completed railroads in actual operation in this country Ten years later, in 1858, there were 27,000 miles ; in 1869, 43,000 miles and on the 1st. of January, 1873 71,000 miles in actual operation, and 8,000 more in course of construction Of this network of 71,000 miles, one half has been built since the late war, and for five years railroad ' growth has averaged i nearly six thousand miles per annum. The amount of capital invested in this vast interest is of such magnitude as ! to stagger calculation. forty thousand dollars a" mile would show for roads already com p!etcd,"a cost; of nearly three billiom and for those now in progress au out lay of threo hundred and twenty mil lions. I To be included in the former sum is 'a large amount of fictitious capital. Tho aggregate is more or less represented by bouds, stocks and oth er evidences ot indebtedness, lhese are to be found in almost every city in tho civilized world. Here an there not uufrequently we witness signs oi renewed indebtedness, in the shape of fresh issues of bonds, an apparently a deeper plunge into the . ; , But slough of' financial difficulty this is not always a misfortune. The railroad must keep pace with populationeven slightly in advance of it, as it requires feeders and must build them. The old iron rail has but a limited lifetime, and must be supplanted by steel. Hence, progress and permanancy are working hand . 11 1 HI r... !.,. 11 it. in nana, eventually mry wui puho one of the grandest problems of the : how to make this monage, ster undertak.ng pay.
