SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 11.
Furnaces out of Blast.
Ait the iron furnace in the neighborhood of
Marietta Fa., with three exceptions, have been
blown out in the course of the last two weeks !-
The Hartisburgh Telegraph ot Tuesday,referring
to the misfortunc—ior such it really is—com
ments thus:—Seven furnaces, within the space o!
three miles, out of blast! Thus it is each day
becoming more obvious that the present system
of Free Trade is bringing our country to bank’
ruptcy and ruin—our manufacturers and their op
eratives to want —yea, to almost actual beggary.
Seven furnaces stopped,and upwards ot two hun
dred and fifty men thrown out of employment.
Most of these men have families who are depend
ent on them for the bread they eat, and who will
soon .unless there is a change in the policy of our
country, be starving for the necessaries ot life.
Augusta Chron. if Sen.
The authors of the American system, a quarter
of a century ago, contended that the protection
of our government should be given to American
manufactures in order, first,that they might be
born; and secondly, that they might be fostered
and sustained in the first years of their inlant ex
istence. It was argued that without such support
our establishments never could spring into life or
would suffer a rapid decay in their unaided con
flict with the matured skill and pauper labor ot
their European! competitors. It was further pro
mised that when, under the benificent operation
of this system, American manufacture,had reach
ed a period of development, which hy the terms of
the prediction has long been • passed, they would
be able to shift for themselves, or, at would
be independent of further protection than such as
might still bo afforded by the reduction of the 1 a
riff to a revenue stand ird.
In opposition to all this appears the t fact, that
a proposition never has been ‘made to cut down
the tariff, which has not encouotered the stern
and uncompromising resistance of .the monopo
lists. The paragraph which we have quolod above
furnishes one of the many illustrations in point.—
The tariff of 1856 upon iron was fixed at twenty
four per cent, ad valorem. This was a reduction
upon the tariff of 1846 of six percent, or one-fifth
of the whole amount. It fs obvious, therefore,
that for every hundred dollars worth of iron im
ported into the United States, twenty four dollars
are paid into the Government Treasury, and ex
actly the same snm is paid by the consumers into
the pocket of the Pennsjflvanian manufacturer.!
This is the“/ree trade (?) system” which in the
opinion of the Harrisburg Telegraph is to preoip
tate the country into “bankruptcy and ruin.” —
Well, the sooner from that cause the better. If
they cannot get along with the present gratuity,
let them try starvation'awhile. They will find it,
doubtless, a powerful stimulant J,to ingenuity.- -
Two hundred and fifty men thrown out of em
ployment, to change the policy of a govermenf
for twenty five millions of people! Such magna
nimity is rather too romantic for our taste. In the
financial panic, last winter, many thousands were
left without employment in the single city of New
York. Did they petition the government for re
lief? No! They scattered—went where there
was a demand for their labor; some came South;
others sought the West, and, in the broad prairies
and illimitable forests, that stretch away .from the
borders of civilization, found scope and remunera
tion for their energies. Let others do likewise
If it does not suit their taste, the alternative we
have suggested will have a tendency to correct
their fastidiousness. Let us try it.
English Apprentice System.
A correspondent of the New York Journal of
Commerce, writing from the United States ship
Powhatan, which has lately spent some weeks at
the Cape of Good Hope and Mauritius, says that
in August, 1834, when emancipation took place in
the British empire, there were about 80,000 slaves
in Mauritius to enjoy the unexpected boon. Be
sides these, there wa9 a white population of about
9000, and ot the tree colored people above 15,000,
the whole making a population of about 104,000.
The increased demand for sugar naturally led to
an extension of the cane culture, till at length it
has excluded everything else, and whereas hardly
a quarter of a ton of sugar was produced in 1813 f
one hundred and fifty thousand tons are produced
now. The price has also risen with the increased
production, if not in the same ra io ; for instead
of three cents per pound as formerly, it now com
mands ten and eleven. An increased demand for
labor, of course followed, and as this conld not be
furnisned by the island, or the importation of
American slaves,a system wa9 devised and organ
ized with the concurrence of the government of
the island and the government of India, to obtain
laborers from the redundant population of that
country under the name of immigrant laborers.
Agents were appointed to procure and ship
them, and a great depot wa9 established at Port
Luis for their reception, and where they were to
remain till contracts were made with the planters
for their rervices, the contracts extending to five
years. The number imported in 1843 was 31,000
and of late years has ranged between 12,000 and
15,000 annually. But even this is not enough; one
third of the island lies in waste for the w ant of
cultivators; fifty thousand imported this year
would not meet the demand. The correspondent
adds that the average wages of the laborer is only
from $3 to 53 50 per month. They live in bam- j
boo huts, scarcely superior to pig pens, without
bed or pillows, and almost without food or clo
thing. This is the product of modem philan
thropy.
Imports at New York.
According to the monthly statement ot the N. ;
Y. Journal of Commerce, the imports of dry
goods at New York, for the month ending the
2d of September, amounted to $11,574,540, being
in excess of the corresponding month of last year j
#2,108,815, and as compared with 1856, falling
short #118,553.
The imports ol dry goods since the begiumng of
the year are $34,433,120 less than for ‘the same
period of 1857, $30,246,141 less than for the same
period of 1856, but only $1,282,743] less than for
the same period of 1855.
If the imports says the paper, continue at this
rate throughout the season, the government will
not need another loan. Most of onr importers
have been looking for a sudden cessation in re
ceipts, but as yet there'are no ‘indications of. such
a change. Our market, however, will not bear
as great weights as formerly, and the accumulated
surplus abroad is not as large as in days past; so
that some decline in the imports may reasonably
be expected.
The Philadelphia Ledger remarks that the Ca
ble demonstration, or National Jubilee, on Wed
nesday did not extend further South than Phila
delphia. Notwithstanding that the cable is to
“benefit cotton, the Southtrn mind seems to
have a strong impression that it may be used for
purposes of private speculation. Hence there was
■o publie demonstration in that quarter, and the
Southern press say the Northern cities are a little
demented to be making such a fuss over a work
which is so liable to abuse, and the temptations to
mismanage which arc so very strong.
The Main Trunk Hoad.
It will be remembered by our readers, that the j
Legislature with a view of developing Southern
Georgia, passed a bill to establish a great Rail
way through that section of the Slate, terminating
at some point between Fort Gaines and the junc
tion of the Flint and Chattahoochee rivers. The
route has been surveyed and the Directors have lo
cated the road. From the proceedings of a meet
ing held in Lowndes County, it appears, however, j
that the citizens of that county and also Berrien are !
not satisfied with the route as laid out and think j
it violative of the act ot incorporation. They say
in their resolutions, that the road as located skirts !
the Florida line for a distance ot thirty or forty
miles and within twelve to fifteen miles of said
line, leaving a scopp of country north of said line j
from sixty to one hundred mik9 —that the General j
Assembly in passing the act of incorporation and |
appropriating one million of dollars to be taken in
the stock of the Company had in view the devel
opment of Southern Georgia and the Directors
were hound by the terms of the Act to run the line
so that the western terminus should touch at some
point between Fort Gaines and the junction of the
Flint and Chattahoochee Rivers, so as to con
nect with Pensacola or Mobile—that the present
route defeats the object of the act of incorporation, j
They therefore protest against the action of the
Board of Directors—believe the Engineer’s Re
port will secure the route to St Marks, Florida— s
recommend the individual stock-holders to with- i
hold the payment on enstalments until the act is
complied with and that the Governor withhold
the State’s enstalnrent until satisfied that the road
is located in accordance with the charter. This
question was discussed iu the lower branch of the
Legislature at the last session aud we remember
that the Representative from Early County—W.
C- Cook Esq., made a strong argument against
the present route, as violative of the charter.

Falling off xn Emigration— For the first time
in the history of emigration to the United States
from the British Islands, there is now a prepon
derance in the movement towards Australia and
Canada over that towards these shores. The
official roturns made up in England, show that for
the first three months of 1853 the aggregate num •
her of emigrants from Great Britain was 19,000,
of whom 8.200 were bound for the United States,
against 16,726 for the corresponding period of
1857. Of the reel 9,867 were for the Australian
I colonies. Emigration for all parts of the world
has not been at so low a figure for fifteen years
j past as it now is. It attained its maximum figure
:in 1853, when it reached 372,725, This was re
| duced to less than one-half in 1857, when the
j emigration only reached some 180,000.

Crops.
The information furnished below from our ex
| changes, agrees very well, in respect to Cotton
prospects, with the reports of our most intelligent
; planters in this section. We have not yet heard
of one whose crop the rust or wornr, or both i
; combined, have not seriously in jured. The corn i
i crop, however,'is the finest that this country ever j
produced. Twenty and twenty-five bushels to the i
acre on up-lands, and thirty-five to forty bushels \
on the bottoms, are vety common facts. If we
shall have nothing to wear, the idea that we will
haVe a plenty to eat is some compensation.
The Winnsboro’ Register says:
Information as to the Cotton crop, from 1
all portions of our District, gives little hope j
lof even an average yield this year. If!
! there is any exception it is mainly in the j
j Horse River—northeastern section. In the
j Longtown region, too, we hear less than
usual murmurs of drought. The Cotton
crop of the District, we are led to infer from
estimates of intelligent planters, will fall
considerably short of average, perhaps as
much as one-third short. The central, low- I
er, and all the Broad River regions are very
dry. The hopes of a fine corn crop, have
at length yielded, and the expectation now
is that it will fall slightly below average.
An intelligent planter from the Broad
River side of Fairfield District, writes also
to the Winnsboro’ Register:
What think you of the Cotton crop ? In
this section, we have not had rain sufficient
for a season in seven weeks. The Cotton j
is ruined beyond all hope of recovery. If !
the prospect be as bad elsewhere, through* j
out the South, as here, manufacturers and j
speculators may put their figures at two j
millions rather than three. But we suppose !
the prospect is better than here, in this
most unfortunate neighborhood, where, in
nice years, we have experienced but one
good Cotton season. It is, however, a long
road that never has a turning, and we
look for better things next year- We shall
have corn in plenty, but peas, potatoes and
turnips are out of the question.
The Camden Journal says:
The drought has made sad havoc with
the crops. Our own observation and infor
mation, for the past week, assures us that
scarcely a .half crop of Cotton can reason
ably be expected, from present indications.
In some instances the Cotton appears to be
literally parched up, and the prospect is
gloomy enough. With an early fall, many
of our farmers will scarcely realize a third
of the usual crop. Corn is better, in many
cases old corn had been pretty well made,
before the severe drought had progressed
to an injurious extent.
Young corn has fared badly, and we
fear, with many, is a total failure, We
hope that there will be bread enough, and
to spare, in our District.
Thfc Albany Patriot, of Sept. 9th, says:
During the past week we have enjoyed
| pleasant weather, with occasional showers
[ and a constant breeze. Thermometer
! ranging from 80 to 86 degrees, extremes.
The corn, cane and potatoe crops were
never more abundant. The cotton crop
will fall short about one-third of former
anticipations. The health in this country
continues good, and from enquiries made,
we can hear of no sickness, although there
may be some slight cases not worth re
| porting.
Thos. R. R. Cobb, and the State Road.
j An erroneous impression has gone abroad
i in regard to Mr. Cobb’s plan for establish
ing a system of Free Schools in the State.
Some ol our cotemporaries represent him
as favoring a sale of the road for the pur
pose of raising the money for this object.—
He distinctly states in his speeches that he
neither advocates nor opposes a sale, for
the reason, that if he should take either
ground, the question would be mqde a po
litical one and he desires to avoid this.—
His plan is to create a permanent educa
tional fund from the State road : if it is sold,
two million dollars to be thus in vested; if it
is not sold, the inteiest $2,<>00,000, annu
ally to be appiopriated to this object. The
public debt of Georgia is about .§2,000,000;
the State road is worth say #5,000,000. —
The debt of the State could be liquidated
and $3,000,000 still left. Mr. C. asks that
two thirds of the amount Un appropriated
to the education of the children of Georgia.
A million will still be left to the State.
Mr. Cobb lias tears, (and they are not
groundless,) that if something *f this sort
is not done soon, this whole amount will
be frittered away in appropiations to dif
ferent private enterprises, and after it is all
gone, the people will not be able to see ivhat
good it has accomplished. BqJ if it is ap
propriated to educational purposes, the re*
suit will be seen in a few years in the
school house, that will be built in every
school district, and an educated and intelli*
gent population.
Will the Atlanta American, and other
journals place Mr. C. right on this subject.
