A son of Thomas Little, of Berkeley
county, West Virginia, died a few days
ago from the effects of vaccination and a
severe cold.
A mass of 150 tons of alleged tea.
whifh had gone through a large fire in
New York, was purchased by a Norwalk
man, to be used as a fertilizer in the
New Canaan nurseries.
The Philadelphia Press thinks that
Percy Bysshe Shelby Pinchback’s health
is no reason why he should not have
been appointed U. S. Surveyor of Cus
toms at New Orleaus, but that his char
acter is.
England and France have assumed
authority to dictate to Egypt as to its
internal policy. But now come Russia,
Germany, Austria and Italy, who de
clare that any modification of the status
quo in Egypt will require the assent of
all the great powers.
It Is pretty generally admitted that Mr.
Shipherd, of Peruvian Company fame,
was rather promiscuous in indicating the
Alebrities that he alleged were parties to
the guano deal. If the dual inquiry,
which has been ordered by Congress, into
the proceedings of this now famous pool
should prove at all successful, something
like the bottom facts may be gotten at.
Until its results are made known the
public may continue to discount largely
Mr. Shiputrd's revelations.
It is stated that the House Committee
on Coinage will report a bill providing
that the silver coin of the United States
shall be a dollar, half-dollar, quarter
dollar and dime, the dollar to contain
4121 grains of standard silver, and to be
the unit of value. Holders of gold or
silver bullion may deposit the same tt
any sub-Treasury, branch mint, or assay
office and receive the market value
thereof in silver certificates of not less
than five dollars and of corresponding
denominations with national bank notes.
These shall be receivable for customs
duties and internal revenue taxes, but
Bhall not be legal tender for other obliga
tions.
The census report will not be com
pleted for several months, the work on
the specialties being very laborious. The
last report was contained in 3,500 pages
of printed matter. The census of 1880
will comprise 30,000 quarto pages. The
special subjects treated are thirty-two in
number, including social statistics of
cities, defective, delinquent and depend
ent classes, forest wealth, gas, quarry
ing, orchard fruits, meat production, in
surance, debts, wealth and taxation,
etc., etc. The work of collecting fac's
has been done by 1,500 employes and
31,382 enumerators. The first census
.report was contained in a volume of
fifty two pages, and was issued in Octo
ber, 1791. The contrast between that
volume and the report which will ap
pear m a few months will be startling.
The McKinley bill, formulated in the
interest of the steel monopoly, proposes
to increase the duties on steel blooms
from #l2 63 a ton to #SO 40; steel wire
rods from #l3 47 to #SO 40; iron cotton
ties from #l4 41 to #33 60; iron hoops
for casks from #l4 84 to #33 60. This
bill is designed to crush all small steel
manufacturers for the benefit of the
monopoly, and will saddle an additional
tax of nearly #600,000 on Southern
planters on the ties they buy. Com
menting on this, the Louisville Courier-
Journal says: “Let Southern cotton
growers reflect on this gouge game of
the protectionists and then decide if they
are willing to be taxed thus outrageous
ly to support a monopoly. These very
tariff monopolies are, through their or
gans, calling upon the Southern people
to advocate the continuance of this rob
ber protective tariff, while making ar
rangements to saddle additional taxation
on them for the monopoly’s benefit.”
The Philadelphia reformers are re
joicing-with enthusiastic joy over their
triumph of Tuesday last The Press de
clares it means the regeneration of every
department of the city government, and
says: “We congratulate the Citizens’
Committee of One Hundred upon this
brilliant triumph, which is the reward of
its patriotic labors, the vindication of its
popular support, and the confirmation of
its great influence. We congratulate the
honest and earnest Republicans of the
city upon a result which goes far to re
deem their party from the selfish, cor
rupt and autocratic control which was
crushing out its real life and moral force.
We congratulate the patriotic Democrats
who have risen above unworthy parti
sanship, and we congratulate all the peo
ple of Philadelphia upon the promise of
better days and the assurance of a more
honest and upright government”
About a year ago Vermont enacted a
severe listing law in aid of tax assess
ments, which required every one to “list”
all their possessions, real and personal,
on pain of a heavy fine. The result has
been to raise the valuation of the State
from $100,000,000 to $163,762,000, the
increase being evenly divided between
real and personal property; but while
the former rose from $71,114,000 to
$102,437,000, the latter was trebled,
rising from $15,000,000 to $46,897,000.
Some property has been taken out of the
State, about $1,000,000 in all from
Burlington; but taxes have been greatly
reduced and the burden on real estate
lightened. In two towns, six of the
wealthiest residents, acting as assessors,
have been indicted for perjury in failing
to list certain property; but it is claimed
that the first year’s trial has done all that
was expected fer the system on its adop
tion.
The apportionment bill, fixing the
number of Representatives at 325, re
quires the division of the total popula
tion of the country by that divisor to
ascertain the number of inhabitants to
the Representative. The population of
the States, exclusive of the Territories,
is 49 871,340. This, divided by 325, gives
151,917. This quotient represents the
number of inhabitants which would fall
to each Congressional district if it were
possible to divide the whole country into
districts exactly equal in population; but
Btate lines interfere with the division, so
that remnants or surpluses fall to each
State. Dividing each State by this quo
tient give3 full districts to only 309
members, and thus 16 members are left
4o be provided for by the States having
the largest surplusage. The bill names
the States that are entitled to these, and
assigns them accordingly. This modulus
fixe* the allotment to States till the next
decimal census. Therefore, in 1890 the
representative basis will be 151,917 and
the 16 largest fractions.
Protection and the American Laborer
. The speech of Hon. Zebulon B. Vance,
of North Carolina, on the subject of a
protective tariff, which was delivered by
him in the United btates Senate on Tues
day, the 14th inst., is one of the finest
and most exhaustive replies to the
sophistries of the advocates of such a
tariff which has ever been uttered. It
attacks the protectionists on both flanks
and in the centre at the same time, utter
ly and completely routing them, and
leaving them absolutely no ground upon
which to make a stand. It literally
drives them into their old recesses, from
which retreat they are powerless to do
more than fire blank cartridges of dog
matic assertions, and old, worn out, oft
repeated arguments, so called
The Senator bases his argument upon
four propsitions: (1) “Money levied
upon the people for the support of the
government is taxation.” (2) “Money
levied upon the people for the support of
the government in proportion to the
ability of each citizen to pay is just taxa*
tion.” (3) “Money levied on each citi
zen for ihe support of the government m
proportion to Lis ability to pay in such
manner as to put most money into the
Treasury and with least direct and indi
rect waste, is both jus ? and icise taxation. ”
But (4) “money levied on the people not
for the support of government but for
the benefit of a particular class of men
at the expense of another is not taxation,
but robbery." Then having made these
axioms the foundation of his argument,
the Senator goes on to show that the
term 4 ‘robbery” as applied to protective
legislation is not his, but that of the Su
preme Court of the United States, which
in rendering its decision in the case of
4 The Loan Association vs. City of To
peka.” 20 Wallace, uses these words:
“To lay with one hand the power of
the government on the property of the
citizen, and, with the other, bestow it
upon favored individuals to aid private
enterprises, and build up private fortunes,
is none the less robbery because it is done
under the forms of law and is called tax
ation.”
Here it is seen that the Senator is justi
fied in the apparently harsh term used
by the highest legal tribunal known to
the country, for while a protective tariff
is not, perhaps, literally understood as
taxation, it is, nevertheless, strictly so.
It imposes a tax upon foreign imports
so as to enable domestic manufactures
to command higher prices than the same
articles would command without such a
tariff, and so every purchaser and con
sumer of such articles are directly taxed
in the exact proportion of such protec
tive tariff, for the direct and sole benefit
of the protected manufacturer.
After, in this way, conclusively jus
tifying his position, the Senator next pro
ceeds to attack the protectionists in one of
their favorite strongholds, viz.: that a
protective tariff protects the American la
borer. He admits that protection ena
bles the manufacturer to pay his laborers
apparently higher wages in dollars and
cents than he could do under a tariff for
revenue only, but asks does he do it?
The census of 1860, when there was no
protective tariff in effect in the country,
and when the average tariff duty was 19
per cent., showed that the ratio of the
cost of labor to the cost of production
was 20 per cent. In 1870, under a high
protective tariff, and when the average
tariff duty was over 43 per cent., the
proportion paid to labor was only 18j
percent., while at the present time a
tabulated statement as to woolens and
cottons for 1880 shows that labor in
cotton is only about 22 to 23 per cent, of
the cost of production, against 16 2 3 in
1860, and in wool not so much, while in
iron it is less than 19 per cent, under an
average tariff on iron articles of 75 per
cent. There is, as the Senator well says,
no getting around or evading these
stern figures, yet he does not stop at
them. He shows that by the tariff of
1861 duties on imports were more than
doubled, and yet the ratio of the
cost of wages to the cost
of production was less that
year than under the tariff of 1846, and
since then the slight increase made does
not begin to keep pace with the increase
of the tariff. Thus it is shown by facts
and figures that the protected manufac
turer, while doling out a mere pittance
of hi3 gains to the laborer, so that the
latter may be induced to howl against
competition with “the pauper labor of
Europe,” plethorically lines his own
pockets, and with his gains builds lordly
mansions, so palatially furnished and
decorated as to make “the plain homes
of the unprotected look so picturesquely
shabby in the far off coutrast."
But neither does the Senator from North
Carolina stop here. He continues to
expose the sophistries of the protectionist
on this subject most unmercifully. He
shows that even if the protected laborer,
who is himself a consumer, received his
fair proportion of wages, he is really not
benefited thereby. Every item he con
sumes is raised in price by the protective
duty, so that in the end the apparent
increase in his wages is consumed by the
increase in price of the necessaries of
life, and eventually finds its way to the
pockets of the manufacturer.
While, however, the protected laborer
may receive some slight benefit from
protection, or, in other words, is not so
badly oppressed by it as is his unpro
tected brother, he is a very minute pro
portion of the great army of American
working meD, who derive no benefit
whatever therefrom. As the Senator
says, according to the idea of the protec
tionists, no man is an American laborer
“unless he stands at a New England
spindle, or in a Pennsylvania iron forge,
or at some cotton or woolen loom.”
Where,he asks.are the masons,carpenters,
joiners, railroad hands, canal diggers,
workers in the cotton fields of the South,
or in the grain fields of the West, the
teamsters, herders, millers, shoemakers,
printers, tinners, tanners, hod carriers,
painters, carters, draymen, and others
too numerous to mention, which consti
tute seven-eights of the laborers of the
country? All these, so far from being
protected by a protective tariff,are suffer
ers thereby because they are taxed heavily
through such tariff for the benefit of a
fortunate class.
This is but a faint outline of a speci
men of the forcible and convincing man
ner in which the Senator from North Caro
lina lays bare the sophistries and asser
tions of the protectionists. It is only one
point upon which he touches, however,
for he does not rest until he has fully
exposed every one of the iniqui
ties of protection and the spe
ciousness of all the arguments
advanced in its defense. * We
regret that we have not space to produce
his remarks in full. They ought to be
generally read, and if the Democrats, as
they certainly should, and we believe
will, make revenue reform vs. a protec
tive tariff the main issues in the Presiden
tial contest of 1864, they could not
possibly do better to advance their cause
than to scatter this admirable speech
broadcast throughout the country as a
campaign document.
Florida’s cotton crop for 1881 averaged
higher than that of any other cotton
State, her average being ninety per cent,
of a full crop.
Col. William K. Wadley-
General E. P. Alexander may have a
great many friends in this State who
admire his abilities, and are willing to
believe that what he proposes to accom
plish with his new policy in regard to
the Central Railroad is both justifiable
and feasible, and will, if successful, re
sult in no damage to the road or its
stockholders. It is very evident, how
ever, from the rapid decline which Cen
tral stock has experienced, that his
friends have lost confidence in the move
ment which he inaugurated, and that
they are now strongly inclined to believe
that he will not be able to accomplish
what he has undertaken.
The cause of this loss of confidence is
not to be attributed wholly to the fact
that the legality of the proposed issue of
interest-bearing certificates, based on the
earnings of the Ocean Steamship Com
pany, is to be tested in the courts. That
may, it is true, have something to do
with it, but if his schemes are practi
cable—that is, if the Central itself can
easily make 9 per cent, dividends, and
the earnings of the Ocean Steamship
Company can be counted on to in
crease those dividends—then, whether the
present injunction is sustained or not,
the stock must be intrinsically valuable,
and would advance. This all parties in
interest well know, and therefore there
mast be some other reason why we have
seen the stock, since General Alexander
inaugurated his movement, fall in value
nearly #2O a share.
This reason is to be found, we believe,
in the opposition to General Alexander’s
scheme by Colonel William M. Wadley.
That gentleman’s name alone is a tower
of strength, and he has made it so him
self by his own merits and exertions.
He has been so long identified with the
great corporation of which he is the
head; he has labored so faithfully and
persistently to advance the interests of
the road and of Savannah; his labors
have been crowned with such marked
success, and he has proven so conserva
tive and faithful to his trust, in season
and out of season, that he has won the
entire confidence of by far the greater
number of permanent investors in Cen
tral stock.’
This, we believe, is why there is such
manifest lack of confidence in the final
success of General Alexander’s plans.
So great, indeed, is the trust reposed in
Colonel Wadley as a tried, true and
faithful steward, that any opposition by
him, and any movement in connection
with the management and policy of the
Central of which he does not
approve, must necessarily find his
disapprobation and opposition a seri
ous obstacle in the way of its success
ful consummation. Wise, prudent and
conservative holders of the stock will
always prefer to rely on a policy they
know by experience to be safe, rather
than trust to one new and untried, and
which may eventually culminate in dis
aster. .
Hon. Wilkinson Call, United States
Senator from Florida, is in favor of the
United States acting as mediator between
Peru and Chili, and he also favors Mr.
Blaine’s idea of a congress of the vari
ous American governments in the inter
ests of universal peace hereafter upon
this continent. On Monday last he in
ti oduced in the Senate the following
resolution:
Resolved, That the interests of peace
between nations, the obligations and
rights which are reciprocal between the
United States of America and all the
other peoples and governments of the
Americas, as well as the commercial in
terests of the people of the United
States, render it proper that the Govern
ment of the United States should, in
some proper form, adopt measures to
settle the controversy between Chili and
Peru, and prevent the forcible dismem
berment of Peru.
That a congress, to be convened in
Washington city and composed of rep
resentatives from the peoples and gov
ernments of the different States of North
and South and Central America, for the
purpose of agreeingon some just method
of settlement of all questions now exist
ing or that shall hereafter arise between
these governments, would be a wise and
beneficial measure.
T. W. Smith, a Chicago Mormon
preacher, has written a long letter to the
New York Herald, in which he de
nounces polygamy and declares that
there is no revelation on record to justify
the twin relic. He says it was simply
one of Brigham Young’s personal inno
vations upon the true faith.

Removing the Capitol.
A few years ago it was the fashion among
a certain clique of politicianp, whose utter
ances were echoed by a portion of the press,
to clamor for the removal of the Capitol
from Washington to some representative
Western city near to the geographical cen
tre of the country. The topic seemed to
prove a seven days wonder, however, and
was soon forgotten in the rush and require
ments of the Nation's urgent business. Now
whether the Capitol will ever be removed or
not Is not near so interesting a question to
some people as whether rheumatism can or
will be removed from their bodies. The sub
ject of the removal of this disease from the
system has very successfully interested my
riads of people, and from the extended ex
pressions conveyed by the almost Innumer
able statements received from representa
tives of every class of the community, we
append the followed brief selection—pre
mising for the benefit of the reader that the
disease referred to is rheumatism or neu
ralgia and the remedy is that grand oldDaln
panacea—Bt. Jacobs Oil. The Rt. Rev.
Bishop Gilmour, Cleveland, Ohio; “Ex
cellent for Rheumatism and kindred dis
eases. It has benefited me greatly.’’—Hon.

time was such as to make me dis
regard the evidence of my own

could get along without St. Jacobs Oil.”—
Mr. D. W. McDonald, Sergeant-at-Arme of
