Bryce ft Cos., dated New York, Novem ber 20, 1888: General Remarks.—The lightness in money and tall of" gold which we noted last w»ok% Jtov»(rh*» J**oo:t«|a state of «um- MAraiiVs e«L, farts# gold Us advanced a decidedly high figure. These movements have produced but little effect on Coltok, fife I market- for »two»s l»efuro.cited, The re-' ceiptß are free, out are not running as high as anticipated by even conservative parties; w 4 good portion of all tbe receipts att the Soffttfenf porta way to this market, where they are offered quite spar i#gj?y rates. We mentioned last Wedk/ tAe proposed action of the Chamber of Commerce of this city in relation t<| the potion tax., and urgad our friemdi to pfetitioir Congress to repeat rh faw or reduce tyte. We sttAe f d . our objections tq tba-daW os JOeisg contrary to the spirit our jn4ittt6oa|, unconstitu tional, unwise, uo|u«| to the interest of labor. .As wo deem the subject J>f 30 mupb. interest, not only to the people Jpf l*e fcut to the people at large, we shall proceed to comi ler the subjectsome what more fully, aiid endoavor t 6 answer ine of the objections made against repea4- ing tbo enactment. ' t * It is urged that .the South shotild pay its share or taxes, and that the Qovern&ent can only £efc this share by taxing rfi w Cotton ; and furthermore, that the profits of Cotton Jjdsing at present prices arp so •great!thd.ft roe fax of three cents per p>dund xe#y small, and net at all a burthen. In we■ will- not urge the Unconstitu tionality of taxing ah Unrepresented por tion of the republic, but will' grant 'that ♦be South should pay its share of taxation equally with the North, East, and West, but in justice Sve insist the four sections should pay every one its share; and until Congress repeal the act, or tax the cdreal products of the Ignited States at least thirty per oent. of their value before the war, we claim that the West, and the North, and the Bast, are *hot paying their share.;- for it mast ho remembered that, before the was 7c. was the average price of Cotton at the Southern ports, say 10c. in present .cnrrency, and if 3c. tax be de rnanded, it is almost one third of the old value, add one third -of what probably wouldbe the price if the crop were not at pr'eerhit a comparative failure, and corres pondingly high in price; and i£ we argue tax is light because the priqc is thus abnormally high, we merely argue that tho less a people have, the more they should have to pay in the way of taxes— an argument more deserving of pity than - cmfihatically that feting Sisjf tjpfel only way of getting revenue fronl' the South; if the profits of raising Cottan are as great as the friends. of the lax assert there is an army of Internal Revenue Assessors and Cullec iors ready to tyk;c the Goverpment’s share out of rtrh ineonie of ihe lucky plantef*. Another argument used by tho friends of the tax pyHfeifct England should bo made to pay a portion "of the debt incurred in the late war, and that she doe3 so by the impo sition of the present tax. In reply, wo will tyalye Ihu coudderatiou of the constitution jjitjr of <witfeßjOn exports, and say nothing about th’e propriety or dignity of enforcing indirect claims, while certain direct ones arc npt followed up with any especial vc hemcico, but’ccrtiliuc ourtfblves to simple facts*:as a thorgugh refutation is afforded. To have Bnglam|hpay the tax, she must pay the price regulated by demand and supply plus three cents. Does any one who knows anything of Cotton contend that Liverpool advanced one penny sterling perpound when (he tax took effect; not at all—their argument was simple and decisive, as follows: *MVe want American cotton, and will pay for it a price entirely determined by the rate of our demand and the supply from that country, *from India, Egypt, Brazil, and the West Indies. The greater the supply tho lower the price; ond-the greater tho per centage of tax America is imposing on herself, the higher tbe premium offered by her for thfe cultivation of the staple iu our East India dependencies is.” This is certainly anew way to pay old debts, and one hardly to be considered satisfactory. While in this con nection we wpolcl parenthetically remark that button has" bsfeon and can again bo raised at a profit t 6 the planter in India and sold in Bombay at 3d. sterling a pound. Another argument of the friends of the tax is, that we must spin up our Cotton at botne, for tbe -policy of this Government is to afford protection against the cheap pro ducts of the pauper labor of over-crowded Europe. No stronger argument could be used in favor of tbe repeal of the tax than this. • If this be tho policy of the Govern ment, let the agricultural industry of the South bo protecied against the pauper labor of India, afid pot be obliged to offer a premium t 6 Indian laborers. There are other points equally strong in favor of the repeal of the law, which we shall diyell udqji iq qur next circular.

Tiie Senate was called to order at 12 o'clock. Prayer was offered by the Cbaplafti./-. The Journal of yesterday was read. On leave given, Mr. Wade introduced a bill lor the admission of the State ol Nebraska. gfThe*i#l sis read a oeg»nd fime, ; kwDlaid oil the table for the time nerag. ” *** Mr. Sherman offered a resolution pro viding that the reporters of the United States and European News Association and the Associated Dross, be provided wi|h.seats op iha floor, . I A., I Mr. Conness asked to have it lie over for the present, and it took that course. Mr. Dickson contradicted the state ments b/ Mr, iu regard tojhe sale of pardons, and said there was nt> truth in it, although he was uot at liberty to state tjje real facts of the case now. He hoped the bill would be, "referred to the .Tpdijiai'y-Cotu-mittee. Mr. Trumbull advocated referring th 6 bill for the present, but hoped it would not thence be supposed that he opposed the bill. Mr. Chandler withdrew his objections to the reference, and it took that course The regular Standing Committees were then appointed by resolutions. On motion, variouß portions; of the President's Message were referred to appropriate Committees. Mr. Sumner introduced his resolution in regard to true reconstruction, and tie-duty relation thereto. He theii«rek<l a letter from Texas, al ledging that the government of that State was a sham, and was in opposi tion to the Union, as well that the State legislation aimed to practically restore the relation of slavery. Laid over. A number of bills, etc., previously introduced, were referred to appropriate Committees. The SjiMue.txweurrrU in <reso lutioif from the If o4se, J ' -rifig the Committeeon Reconstruct! , appointed last session, to continue its labors. The Senate adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. The House met at 12 o'clock. After prayer by the Chaplain, the Clerk read the Journal.of yesterday. The Speaker laid before the House the laws of the territory of Dacotah. Mr. Washburne (Republican) of Illinois, introduced a resolution calling on tbe'Secretary of War to communicate to the House the report of the tour of inspection of Brevet Brig- Gen. Babcock, made during the last season, or such portions thereof as he may deem proper to communicate. Mr. Williams, of Pennsylvania, moved to reconsider the bilfregulating appoint ments to office, which was reported by him last session, and proceeded to state his reasons for making the motion at, this time. The bill lie said was of great national importance. He discussed, elaborately, the policy which shquld govern appointments to, or removals from office, combatting the idea the President has, or should have an irre sponsible power to appoint and remove, and quoting freely from political author ities and legal decision in support of his position. At the conclusion of Mr. Williams' ; speech,dife Said'lie did not wish to press aqiassage o£» the bill at this timje. He demanded the previous question on motion to reconsider. Mr. Schenck, of Ohio, hoped the motion would be withdrawn. If the motion to reconsider should prevail, he dpsired the bill referred to the Joint Select Committee on Retrenchment, to which the whole subject had been com mitted. Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, thought it had better be referred to the Corn- mittee on Judiciary. Mr. Kassau, of lowa, inquired if there had been atiy change made in the first soqtjon of the bijl, which provided that no officer should be removed except by the same agency that appointed him, and also, if there was not a provision excepting heads of departments from operations of law. Mr. Schenck thought it should be referred to the Joint Committee on Retrenchment. • Amendments were offered by Wilson, of lowa, Stevens, of Pennsylvania, and Hale, of New York, and on motion of Mr. Qarfiqfd,, of Ohio, the bill, with the amendments suggested, was ordered to be printed, and made a special order for to-mtnrow. • Mr. Lawrence, from the Judiciary Committee, reported a bill providing that iu trials for offences against the Union, forming or expressing of opin ion, shall not disqualify a juror. Mr. Stevens opposed the billy He was in favor of punishing traitors, but not by ex post facto laws. T lie bill was deferred till Monday. - other unimportant action the House adjourued. Washington, Dec. I—P. M. There is no truth whatever in the report published by the opposition, that Mr. Craig intends to devote: liis best energies to the advancement of news rooms.

The Star says: ■‘The Press Association of Washing ton, embraelng/lhe five daily papers, morning and evening, have decided-'to take their telegraphic news from the U. S. and European News Associa tion-instead of from the York Asgociated Pres, as theretofore. T.hey are actuated in this coarse by the fact that the first named Association has demonstrated its ability to furnish news more promptly, and in better shape than the old Association, and have evinced a disposition to correct griev ances complained of by the Press out side of New York, that the old Asso ciation has nht displayed. A fur ther cause for this action has leen furnished in the rule adopted by the Associated Press, by which the use or acceptance, of nejys from any :;other'aoilfee will eause expulsion of tbe offending journal. > The rule so Arbitrary, having for its object to com pel the purchase of news at one particu lar shop, instead of from the best in the market, has been felt by the Press everywhere as injurious to the news paper business, and degrading in the last degree to the newsEaper publishers accepting it. Xh4 truth is, that jtlie New York Associated PreJs is an institution created ahd worked to gather news for New York, and not to disseminate news from New York. It is an admirable institu tion. for the New York papers, but a very bad one for outside papers. The Craig Association, on the contrary, lqpjcs for its support to, and works for the interest of, the newspaper Dress of the country at large, and papers outside of New York have what they had not in the old concern —a voice iu its management. The New York Commercial says: “Newspapers do not exist for the Associ ated Press, but the Associated Press for papers. So long as the managers of the association proved themselves able to meet the daily increasing demand of the press and the public for news, they certainly could have had nothing to fear from any rival body undertaking to do the same thing, that already -in this city, throughout the West, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Boston, the new orga nization, of Mr. Craig, lias de prived the Associated Press of far the greater part of business. It would seem to prove pretty conclusively, that the latter body, is not, as-now conducted, equal to the work it professes to do. For our our own part, we think it due the press and public, to state that upon sev eral occasions, since the Associated Press has passed under its present man agement, it has entirely failed J.O supply this journal with news. It was under contract to furnish us. On these occasdns, had it not been for faculties offered us by Mr. Craig’s organization we should have been absolutely de prived of that supply of late and impor tant news. One of the leading morning journals of this city has apparently suffered pre cisely as we have done, and announces in the issue of this day, its Intention of taking the remedy in its own hands. Every live newspaper in the country must and necessarily will do the same thing. Monopoly—the news which sup presses. To monopolize is simply ridic ulous—an impossibility, in this age and country.’ Privale--To all Editors. Mr. Craig has honored _me with the duty of preparing dispatches for the Southern press. He desires you to communicate to me your wishes, and directs mo to obey them in all possible respects —avoiding epithets and specu lation, and confining myself to an im partial report of rivets. I will serve you faithfully, aud if there is any honey in thesitualionitwiil .be busily hived for the gratification of the Southern people. I have visited Mr. Craig’s olfice at New York, and can assure you that the ma chinery is perfect and success certain. (Signed) P. W. Parr. FROM NEW YORK. New York, Dee. 5—P. M.
