.HEDAILY TIMES. 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. The North Review. The August number ol this Review’ from Messrs. Leonard, Scott &Cos., of New York, is on our table. It contains reviews and criiicisms on the following subjects: Chateaubriand, by M. Villemain. Gladstone’s Homer. Biblical Interpretation—Epistles to the Corin thians. British Art—Painting and Sculpture. The Modern British Drama. Egypt and Syria—Western Influence. Researches on Light—Sanatory, Scientific and iEsthetical. Our Army in India—The Literary Fund. Political Parties, Recent Publications. Any one of which is well worth the price of the Review for one year. 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. *0 *< j ‘Tne Edgefield Advertiser of yesterday publish j es the speech of Gen. Bonham at the dinner given ; in his honor at Edgefield, on the 2d ir.st., accom | parried with letters from prominent gentlemen, 1 including Gov. Hammond, Gov- Adams, Gov. j Allston, Hon. Wm. Porcher Miles, Hon. L. M. ; Keitt, Hon. James L. Orr,Hon. J. D. Tradewell, Mayor of Columbia, Col. Maxcy Gregg, and Col. A. P. Calhoun, ot South Carolina; Hon. Robt. Toombs, of Ga.; and Hon. Thomas Wil liams, of Montgomery, Ala. Giddings Politically Defunct.— -The nomi nating Convention recently assembled in the “Liberty District,” for the purpose of selecting a represemive to Congress, laid Old Joshua upon the shelf and nominated in his stead, J. Hutchins one of the same political “stamp. ! fgsF’Soine of the Illinois farmers agree in j saying that the amount of Sugar raised in that j State this year from the Sorgham Sugar Cane wiil exceed ‘in amount-including of coursejthe molasses made in the same proportion—that of | any other one product of article of export grown and manufactured iu the State. 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. —Athens Banner. Political- Ge H. Pendleton and Wm. S. Groves beck have been renominated for Congress by the Democrats of the first and second districts of Ohio. The Democratic State Convention of Michigan was held at Detroit on Thursday, and w ? as presided over by Hon. Robert T. McClelland. The following nominations were made : For Governor, Senator Chas.

Resolutions were adopted, declaring ad herence to the Cincinnati platform, asserting the right of every people to vote upon their constitution, if they so desire, expressing confidence in President Buchanan’s Ad ministration, and congrarulating the coun try upon the settlement of the “Search and Seizure” question on the basis of Gen. Cass’ protest. Troops Ordered to Oregon.— Orders have, been issued from the War Department selecting the 6th regiment of infantry, now 7 in service in the Department of Utah, for service in Oregon and Washington Terri tories. The regiment will be provisioned W’ith three months supplies. The equip ments will be completed at Fort. Bridger. The commanding officer of the regiment is directed to see that no wagon is loaded heavier than 2,000 pounds; rapid move ments being essential in the Indian country. As soon as the necessary supplies and transportation are furnished, the regiment will march from Camp Floyd, situated 30 j miles from Salt Lake City, via Soda ; Springs, Humbolt river, Ac., to Benecia, | California. The commanding officer is re | quired to report to Gen. Clarke, of the j Department of the Pacific, the probable j time of his arrival at Benecia, that water j transportation to Oregon may be in readi— I ness. i j Ex-Gov. Mcßae.—The Mississippi State Gazette, in announcing the nomination, of ex-Gov. Mcßae by the Brookhaven Con vention, to fill the vacancy in Congress oc casioned by the death of the lamented Quitman, says: “The district is overwhelmingly Demo cratic, and the choice of the convention will be ratified by the people at the polls. The nominee will make an able, efficient, and popular Representative of the fifth district. I An accomplished gentleman, an able de- j bater, a wise legislator, and an open foe, he j will win fresh laurels in the new field of la- j bor assigned him, and reflect honor upon . his State. A Democrat of the most approv- j ed State rights sect, he will adhere with un- i shaken devotion to the tenets ot h:s creed, ! and faithfully represent the interests of his I party and his section. He will be true to j the South, but will not jeopard the success . of her cause by a zeal which is not temper- j ed and controlled by sound judgment” Cheap. — A letter from Burlington, lowa, predicts that grain, corn, beef, and ail pro visions, will be very cheap this fall. The writer says: ‘‘Lots of beef will go from this section, and more especially from Illinois, eastward. The over-labored ox is being treacherously entertained by the owner with corn nubbins tender prairie grass, to fit him for an early trip to New York,” BT THE OCEAN LINE.
