The Cincinnati Enquirer puts the great question of America thus plainly and toroi- bly: “Suppose we had a toll gate near the city, through which every farmer had to pass with his produce, and for every dollar in value in his wagon he was required to pay forty-eight cents toll. This toll he would add to the mar ket price, and collect it from the people.— Would not such au oppressive imposition be speedily torn down ? Yet how few people know that we have just such toll gates at ev ery Custom-house in the land. Four hun dred and fifty millions of dollars in foreign goods are annually shipped to the United States. Upon these goods there are levied and collected by the Government no less than two hundred and fifteen millions of dollars in gold. Is not this outrageous? What a shackle is that upon commerce! What a tax it is npoa our industry ! One would suppose that a tax of fifteen or twenty per eent would suffice. But to make it forty eight per cent is unendurable. We have no doubt that with twenty per cent our imports would be six'or seven hundred millions of dollars. This would give ns a sum amply sufficient to de fray (he interest upon the National debt.— Take off the taxes, too, from our home indue* tries, and give ns plenty of currency, and oar exports will keep even pace with onr imports. It was under the policy of free trade that the Administration of Louis Napoleon in France ran up the exports and imports from eight hundred millions to sixteen hundred millions of dollars. At least half of our tariff rates should be knocked off. The first honest Con** gress we get will do it. Who wants a tariff wheu the average tax is forty eight per cent. ? ~~THE~U(Tk6KRS. They Issue a Manifesto to the Ameii -an People—A Non Political Order for the Elevation of Man and the Improvement of Woman—Homely Truths For Farmers. St, Louis, February 11, 1874. The National Grange to-^ty, after the transaction of some minor business, read the report of the committee on the resolution presented by Ward low, of Florida, and adopt* cd it unanimously. It is as follows: “Profoundly impressed with the truth that the National Grange of the United 8tates should definitely proclaim to tbq world its general objects.wc hereby unanimously make this declaration of the purposes of tho patrons ot husbandry: ‘First—United by the strong and faithful tie of agriculture, wc mentally vesolve to la bor for the good of our order, our country and mankind. ‘Second—We heartily indorse the motto, ‘In essentials, unity ; in non-essentials, liber ty; in all things, charily.* ‘Third—We shall endeavor to advance oar cause by laboring to accomplish the follow’* ing objects: *A developed and higher manhood and wo manhood among ourselves. ‘To advance the comforts and attractions of our homes, and to strengthen our attach ment to onr pursuits. •To foster mutual understanding and co operation s. ‘To maintain inviolable our laws, and to stimulate each other to lnbor to hasten the good time coming. ‘To reduce our expenses, both individual and corporate; to buy less and produce more, in order to make onr farms self-sustaining. •To diversify our crops and to crop no more that: we can cultivate. ‘To condense the weight of our exports, selling less in the bushel and more en (be hoof and in fleece. ‘To systemize our work, and calculate in* telligently on probabilities. •To discontinuance of the credit system, the mortgage system, and every other system tending to prodigality nnd bankruptcy. ‘We prepose meeting together, talking to gether, working together, buying together, selling together, and in general acting to" gether for our mutual protection and advance* meut, as occasion may require. *We shall avoid litigation as much as possi ble, by arbitration in the grange. •We shall constantly strive to secure entire harmony and good will, and vital brotherhood among ourselves, and to make our order jer- petual. We shall earnestly endeavor to suppress persona], local, sectional and national preju dices, all unhealthy rivalry, and all selfish ambition. Faitnfnl adherence to these principles will insnre our mental, moral, social and material advancement. ‘Fourth—For onr business interests, we desire to bring producers and consumers, rs and manufacturers, into the most d»- ily relations possible. Dse wit’i -a surplus of men, not that we are unfriendly to them,.but do not need them. Their surplus and their exertions diminish our profits. ‘Wo wage no aggressive warfare against any other interests whatever. On the contrary, all our acts, and all our efforts, so far a* bus iness is concerned, are not only for the bene fit of producers and consumers, but also for all other interests ihat tend to bring th&e two parlies into speedy and ecopomicsl con tact. ‘Hence we bold that transportation com panies of every kind are necessary to onr suc cess, and tbatlbeir interests are intimately connected with our interests; aud harmoni* oua action is mutually, advantageous. ‘Keeping io view tbe firgt sentence in our declaration of principles of action, that indi vidual bappinetts depends upon die general prosperity, wc six a 1! ilieretore .advocate for every Stale the increase in every practicable way of all facilities for Iran.-porting cheaply to the seaboard, or between home producers and consumers, all tbe production* of our country. ‘We adopt it as our fixed purpose to open out the channels into nature’s great arte ries, that the lifeblood of c tmneroe may flow freely. We are not the enemies of rail roads, nor of navagable nor irrigating canals, nor ot any corpora*ion that will advance our . industrial interests, nor of any of the labor ing classes. •In onr fudde orJer there is no coromu- ism, no aggraria*'ism. -‘We are opposed! a such spirit and manage ment of any corporation or enterprise aa tends to oppress the people, and rob them of their jast profits. —*■ -J»- ‘We are not enimies to capital, but we op pose the tyranny of monopolies. We long to see the antagonism between capital and la bor removed by common consent and by on enlightened statesmanship worthy of the 19th century. ‘We are opposed to excessive salaries, to high rates of interest, and exorbitant per cent* profits in trade. They grently our burdens, and do not bear a proper pro portion to tbe profits of the producers. IV e desire self-protection aud the protection of every true interest of our land, by legitimate transactions, legitimate trade, and legitimate profits. ‘We shall advance tbe cause of education among ourselves and for our children by aU just means within our power. We especially advocate for oar agricultural and industrial colleges that practical agricultrial, domestic science, end all the other arts which adorn the home, be taught in their course of study. ‘Fifth—We emphatically and sincerely aa sert the oft repeated truth taoght in onr or ganic law, that the grange, national, State or subordinate, is not e political or party organ ization. No grange, if true.to its obligation, can discuss political Or religions questions, nor call political conventions, nor nominate candidates, nor even discuss their merits in its meetings. Yet the principles wc teach nnderiie all true politics, all tree statesman ship, and, if properly carried out, will tend to purify tbe whole political' atmosphere of onr country, for we seek the greatest good to the greatest number. But we must always bear it in mind that no one, by becoming a Grange member, gives np that right and duty which belongs to every American citizen, to take a proper interest in the politics of his country. On tbe contrary, it is a right for every one to do all in his power legitimately to influence for good the action of any political party to which be be longs. - It is bis dnty to do all he can in his own party to pat down bribery, corruption and trickery; to see ihat none but competent, faithful and honest men, who will uiminch- ingly aland by our industrial interests; are nominated for all positions of trust; and to have carried out the principles which should always characterize every grange member, that tbe office should seek tbe man, and not tbe man the office. We acknowledge the broad principle that difference cf opinion is no crime. r.n«i bold that progress toward truth is made by differ ence of opiuion, while the fault lies in bitter ness of controversy. We desire a r per equality,equity and fairness; protection for tho weak, restraint upon tbe-htrong ; in short, justly distributed burdens, and justly distri buted power. These are American ideas, the very essence of American independence ; and to advocate the contrary is unworthy of the sons aud daughters of an American re public. *We cherish the belief that sectionalism is and of right should be dead and buried with the past. Our work ia for the present.and the future Id our agricultural brotherhood and its purposes we ehall recognize no North, no South, no East, no West. It is rese.ved by every patron, as the right of a freeman, to af filiate with any party that will best carryout his principles. l Sixth--0ur3 being peculiarly a farmers* nong ecia institution, we cannot admit ali-to our ranks'. Many are excluded bylhe nature of our-or ganizatlon, not'beoause'they are professional men, or artisans, or laborers, but because they have not a sufficient direct interest in tilling or pasturing tbe soil, or may have some interest in conflict wita our purposes. But we appeal to all good citizens for their cordial co-operation to assist in our effort*to* ward reform, that we mayteveniually remove from our midst the last vestege of tyranny and corruption. We hail the general desire for fraternal harmony, equitable compromise and earnest co-operation, as an omen of our future success. ‘Seventh—It shall be an abiding principle with us to relieve any of our oppressed and suffering brotherhood, by any means at onr command. ‘Lost, but not least, we proclaim it asm our purposes to inculcate a proper apprecii lion of the abilities and sphere of woir^ * is indicated by admitting her to memi and position in our order. Impli continued assistance of our Divine Master to guide us in our work, we here pledge our selves to faithful aud harmonious labor for all future time, to return by our united efforts to the wisdom, justice, fraternity and politic cal purity of our forefathers.” TIIB COTTON 8TATE3- A memorial to tbe Patrons of Husbandry in the Colton States was also presented and unanimously adopted. It is an argument in favor of mixed husbandry in tlife South’ in stead of expending the tfhergies of the people raising a single crop. It says: 'During the past seven years our ccttoo- fields have added to the iveaUh of the world two thousand millions of dollars, and caused prosperity to smile upon every oue who has handled our crops, save those who struggled for its production. Annually the energies of the colton..planter have been exhausted in at tempting to produce a maximum crop of a sin gle staple*- whilst quite as frequently he lias reduced his means in applying Ins necessary wants. A system based upon such a policy and producing such results must be radically wrong, and, if persisted io, will lead to bank ruptcy and ruin. “No people can ever become prosperous who are not eelf sustaining. Our fertile soil, exhaustless mineral wealth, abundant water* power nnd general salubrious climate avail us nothiug if annually we expend our millions for subsistence. U is generally conceded that home grown bread is cheaper than purchased supplies, and the observation of every plast er ia that those of Southern fanners who live within themselves are more indepdent and less incumbered with debt than those who have relied solely apoji the cotton crop — Were it otherwise, it is hazardous for any people to rely upon others for a supply of those articles which are necessary for their daily consumption ” It then refers to the famine, which ' more than once has occurred in India, owing to the efforts of the people to grow cotton to the ex clusion oMirendstuffs, and adds: mittee on Resolutions, but indorsed by every member of tbe National Orange. *■ i i m » »— Teller from l,t»?»a Fenirnelle Macon, ; Feb. 19/1874 THF MACC.N AND “During the past year, portions Minnesota and Dakota ha grasshoppers, which desti have tro; Hence of Vegetation. Imagine your ci iddle- * similar invasion become Northeast, and coupled with this idea the to tal failure of the cotton crop, either from worm, drought, or any other unavoidable cause Improbable as such visitations may appear, have wo the power to prevent them ? And is it wise to subject ourselves to the pos sibility of becoming tbo «ictims‘of such ca lamities ? Our wisest, and safest policy is as far as practicable to produce'at Lome our necessary supplies. “Is there a farm in tbe South upon which tbis cannot be done, and at tbe same time produce an average cotton crop, as the nelre- sult of the farmer’s annual labor ? * We Be lieve there is not Annually four millions of bales of ootton are produced upon Southern soil; but what proportion of this vast amount is returned to indicate our prosperity ? One- halt of it is expended for nertfs-mry supplies, wl.il-t the remainder in-divided between labor and taxes; hence the cost"of production has exceeded the value of the article piodueed.— Shall this policy continue ? Extensive cotton crops have evinced our unity of purpose, and entailed poverty upon us. ^An equally uni form adhesion to mixed husbandry would secure our recuperation. Cotton is a neces sity, and the extent of that necessity can be calculated with exactness. - If 3.500,000 balep are grown, they will he consumed before an other crop can be gathered, and a remunera tive market price will be sustained by the consequent demand. If 4,500,000 hales are grown, the large marginal excess will control and depress the markets. The alternatives for success are numerous, but we need .rely upon the single one of co-operating ia Ihe determination to subsist at home. With this end attained, there is no reason why we should not be the happiest, mo9t independ ent, and most prosperous people on the earth.” The memorial is signed by the masters of the State Granges of South and North Caro lina, Alabama, Mississippi. Florida, Arksn« saa, Louisiana, Georgia and Tennessee, and wm aot only heartily approved by the Com-: BBUNSWrCK B4ILB0AD AND SW* VCT GOVERNOR SMITH. The special message of tbe Governor pub lished this mbro’ing, dearly foreshadows that in the event the Senate passes tbe bill for the extensio'n of the Macon and Brunswick Rail 5oad, he will return it without his signature With his message he sends n document from the New York stockholders, protesting against the measure, and Calling upon the State of Georgia to protect them In their just inter ests. Also a letter .from General LawtoD the attorney of the Central, proposing to low the cars of the Brunswick to puss over the Macon nnd Western and bring down all through freights *hicb may be consigned 10 - ^ t As is well known, soon after Cue war the President of the Brunswick Railroad appeal ed to monied nun. of New York lor aasva'.aucc ia extending the road from its the* Arniau, Coclirnn station, thirty or forty miles to the sea. It wns favorably received by Dabney, Morgan &„€o., and Sherman, Duncan $: Co , who advanced enough ic.uiy money to quick ly and fcuccessfndy complete the entire line and equip it.Toe 'Sfite of Georgia, how ever, endorsed itB.bonds, nnd took a mort gage upon the road. In these trinsaciions, the original stockholder*, the fi.i-t subset hers, lost eirei.v cent they bad put into it nnd then .held. They, as a rule, accepted the loss cheerfully, sitting Ih t they only wants ed the road »nd cared nothing fer the loss And if the bill joowr passes the Senate in its present shape.,and hfcomes a law, • the hold ers of the stock iu NewTprk and elsewhere, will be cutoff in the fauj way.

This is panic itself. Perhaps in Ibi^is the beginning of the. end of Wall street absolutely controlling the fi~ nances of the Western world; for if money cannot be utilised there, it wiU be sent where it will pay interest, «nd it may be that this crash, like the thunder in the heavens, is sent for the purpose of clearing away tbe clouds, .The tendency; of Capital like that of govern ment, is ta constantly .drift from the hands of the ninny into the few.

Work has already been commenced Upon t he Catholic University of Georgia which has been located just beyond Vineville, about two miles from the city. The ground, about forty acres of really beautiful land, is being pat in order for the reception of the improve ments to be placed upon it. It is said a con tract has been closed to supply 3.000.000 of brick as tbe firnt installment, nnd that 1C : la assured that the institution will start forth with an endorsement of $300,000. Macon gets the benefit of all this for a cisb invest ment of only $4 000 No one need doubt that the powerful religions denomination under whose patronage it with directly he, will sus tain it sell until tho end of time, an I that it will be a mint, of wealth to Ibis city.
