PROTECTIOBT.
The Prolcctionists nt tbe Eistward are
making desperate efforts bo to change the cur
rent ot opiniou in the Western States as to in
fluence the legislation of Congress. A reac
tion has set in, and the formation of free
trade associations in the cities of the West
have become necessary, in counteraction of
these efforts. The friends of protection not
only dispute the policy of free trade, but as
sail the motives of its promoters. The free
trade leaguers of the city of New York are
charged with interested views in becoming
members of associations intended to promote
the interests of liberal commercial inter
course. Such men as David Dudley Field,
Lncius Robinson, Isaac H. Bailey, Alfred
Pell, William Wood, Charles A9tor Bristed,
Wm. B. Scott cannot be permitted to asso
ciate together for the furtherance of a lpgiti.
mato purpose but that they are classed
among the “importers and British jobbers”
in New York.
It is this low system ot personal imputa
tion pursued by the Protectionists that is
driving all men of honorable dealing from
among them, and is causing the reaction
throughout the Western States, of which we
have spoken.
But this imputation of motive is not limited
to men of business, and who belong to tbe
contemplative classes of society whose pur
suits are not blended with active occupation,
but such is tbe low style of controversy that
prevails lhat the motives of men of science,
on whose characters tbe world has long
since passed judgment, have been arraigned
corrupt. “How intense (says the New
York Commercial Advertiser) must be the
hatred of our contemporary, (the New York
Tribune) against free trade when, he cannot
name even Adam Smith, without casting a
slur on the motives which induced him to
utter the great truths which he first presented
in a scientific form.”
It is very questionable whether the attempts
made by the Protection party to acquire
power in the West will be successful. Tbe
Western States b«?gin to perceive that their
interests are UDitcd with those of the
South and not those of ■ the Ea9t—
with tbe agricultural and not tie
manufacturing States. The grain-grow
ing sections raise a surplus that is not want
ed in Europe; beside, tbe cotton producing
section produces nothing that comes into
competition with the producers of stock aud
provisions. Nature and interest point out
the .couuection. The war has temporarily
interrupted the trade between them. It will
soon be resumed. The commerce that
united the Southwest with the Northwest is
now rapidly beiDg restored to its former
channels.
Can it be presumed that that proiific sec
tion which finds its markets on the shores of
the gulf will seek it on those of the Southern
Atlantic—that the grain which is raised in
the remote West will be made to nourish
manufacturing industry on the banks of the
Connecticut ? Trade will not pursue circui
tous channels when it can be made to take
direct ones. The people who have found it
their interest to exchange their surplus wheat
for European manufactures, by the agency
ol those with whom they are geographically
and commercially connected, will not dis
solve those ties and establish'new connect
ions far less profitable.
Tbe effoits made, therefore, by t'eose who
are organizing societies in the West to influ
ence public opinion and control tbe action of
Congress in regard to protection must be at
tended by failure. It is an endeavor to coun
teract tlie purposes of nature which dictates
a connection between the South and Nortli-
west. x The attempt has led to re-actinu.
The cities of the Northwest are forming free
trade associations. Tiie suggestions of self-
interest have become too powerful for the
schemes ot monopoly.

WILLIAM DURYEA,
J25-ly Gcueral Agent
States, be asks : “Why should the people ot
the South hesitate to accede to any requisi
tion or suggestion implying no dishonor,
coming from such a friend to their interest
and welfare as President Johuson could show
himself to be consistently with his sense of
what is due to his situation as Chief Magis
trate and guardian of a government that has
been so recently compelled to defend itself
against a most formidable and fearful rebel
lion at an immense cost of blood and trea
sure” ?
Mr. Bell is uot sanguine that President
Johnson will be able to consummate fully
the plan of restoration presented iu bis late
message, as we may infer from bis inquiry :
“What man of any experience orobservitiou
in affairs of government does not acknow*
ledge that a President may sometimes be
compelled, by sound policy, to make a pow
erful opposition concessions, 89 modifications
of his own favorite plans and policy, which
his individual judgment may not dictate or
approve?”
Ilis remarks upon the subject of negro suf
frage disclose the fact that, On this point at
least, be is in full fellowship with tbe con
servative Republicans of the North. He says
that the President holds that the regulation
of that matter rests solely with the several
States ;*but “doubtless he would be gratified
by a prompt and liberal exercise of that
jiower by their Legislatures or Conventions
in forming their constitutions, us such a
course would tend to satisfy the North that
the South are not disposed to act illiberally
or unjustly by tbe colored population.” The
opiniou is expressed also, that if the colored
mau owned a freehold of $250, and possessed
the ability to read and write, it would not be
dangerous to allow him to vote. But he is
by no means hopeful as to tbe future of the
African race on this continent, and believes
thet “when all" is done that can be done to
mitigate the condition of tue African rj^ce in
the South it is melancholy to reflect that a
small remnant only win survive the present
generation.”
He denounces with severity the test oath
of 18G2, and characterizes it as one of the
most insidious devices that could have been 1
framed to revolutionize the Government; i or
adopted as a precedent, it would place it iu
the power of any party which might acquire
control of the Government, to apply any
test, whether referable to politics, religion,
color or what not. The opinion of the dis
tinguished statesman onj this point is in ac
cordance with the spirit of constitutional
liberty ; and whoever holds a different one 1
is either unable to appreciate this blessing,
or would ruthlessly sacrifice it for the pro
motion of party or personal objects.

Duath or Rev. Thomas J. Fbsher—A few
days siuce we published a brief paragraph
stating that Rev. Thomas J. Fisher, an emi
nent Baptist clergyman, ot Louisville, Ky.,
bad been knocked down and robbed on tbe
streets of that city, receiving injuries which
it was feared would prove fatal. In the
Courier of tbe 15th inst. we find a notice of
tbe funeral of Air. Fisher, which took place
on tbe day previous. After an account of
the funeral obsequies, which, after the usual
services of his church, were duly solemnized
by tbe Alasonic Order, of which he was a
member, tbe Courier adds:
Tue Rev. Air. Fisher leaves a wife and ac
complished daughter who are plunged into
irreparable griet at their overwhelming loss ;
but we are gratified to know that tbeir pe
cuniary circumstances are very favorable.
During tbe long and successful ministry of
the deceased be was tbe means through
God of the conversion to the Baptist Church
of over ten thousand persons. His last ef
fort in public was an address at Bagdad in
defence of the order uf Masonry.
The Pope, it seems, no longer conceals
from himself the impending doom of his
temporal dominions. In addressing the
French troops on the 1st of January he ex
pressed the fear that tbe enemies of the
Church would go to Rome after the depar
ture of the French troops. So it seems all
parties in Italy are agreed that this with
drawal of the French troops will be very
soon followed by a revolution in Rome and
a detnaud of tbe Romans for annexation to
Italy.
London Times urges acceleration in
the payment of the English debt, and quotes
the proposithm made for the payment of the
American debt as an incentive. The official

success of the American institutions, and
censures the attack made upon them by the
Kreuzzeitung and other organa ot the aristo
cracy.

A Washington telegram to the Philadel
phia Ledger says :
“I hear that Air. Bigelow wrote out by the
last steamer, cautiouiug the Government
agaltist putting faitb in the reports about the
contemplated withdrawal of the French
troops from Alexico.”
The caution is needed. There has been a
good deal of nonsensical newspaper talk for
sometime past—tbe most of it originating
at Washington—about the recall of Nupo-
leon’s European legions, but as we have from
time to time shown, it is utterly without
foundation. Why, this very day, we print
advices troin Vera Cruz direct, showing that
ns Into ns the 7ih inst. reinforcements
(French and Austrian) continued to arrive,—
whereas, if anybody kuows even of a single
regiment being ordered back home, the pub
lic have not the honor of his acquaintance.
