MACON, BEPT. 16, 1870.
Young liRdles* Boarding and Day
MmL
We invite attention to the advertisement of
Mrs. Edward B. White’s boarding and day
school for yonng Indies, at 59 West 42d street,
New York oity, elsewhere found. We are as
sured that no better school of the kind is to be
found in that city, and the list of references
embrace the names of some of the most prom
inent gentlemen in both sections of the Union.
From the South, we notice the names of Gen
eral Wade Hampton, N. R. Middleton, L. L. D.,
President Charleston College, and Bev. W. T.
Brantley, D. D., of Atlanta. Mrs. White is a
Southern woman, and will make a liberal de
duction in terms to pupils from the South.
The Vermont Elections.
It was reported that the Radicals carried this
election by even larger majorities than hereto
fore, but a special to the Boston Post, of Satur
day, tell a different story: “For the first time
since 1853 the Democrats have elected two
members of the State Senate, and instead of
only nine Representatives, have elected nine
more then last year, an increase of one-third.—
In several counties Democratic nominees for
county offices have also been elected, an almost
unheard-of thing for fifteen years.” So it seems
the Democratic tide is rising even up in that
Gibraltar of Radicalism.
Governor Hoffman.
The printers made us say that there is no
man of fewer abilities than Governor Hoffman.
The word used was “ finer.” But Hoffman is
not only one of the ablest men in America—a
remarkably clear thinker and a man of great
executive force—but he ha3 the rare merit
among politicians of sincerity, candor, and
conscientiousness. He thinks clearly, and he
has the nerve to act up to his convictions. It
was so great a blessing to the knavery-ridden
State of New York when they seated Hoffman
in the Executive chair, that nobody seriously
doubts his re-election by a largely increased
majority.
Nominating Ineligible#.
We think there is little or no division of
opinion on this subject among Georgia Demo
crats, and, therefore, it is hardly worth while to
pursue the argument further in answer to an old
Democrat. If we desire representation in Con
gross let us comply with the terms. If we do
not desire it, let us make no nominations and
cease concerning ourselves about the matter.—
That is the whole of the argument so far as we
can see.
“King by the Grace of God.”
The Cincinnati Enquirer thinks that the per
sonal opinions of tho King of Prussia on the
subject of government are of interest at this
time, as they may exercise an important in
fluence upon his dealings with the present au
thorities of France. King William was crowned
on the IGth of October, I8G1. In an address
delivered on tho 15th, he said:
‘The rulers of Prussia receive their crown
from God. To-morrow, therefore, I shall, take
the crown from the Lord’s table, and place it
on my head. This is the meaning of the ex
pression ‘King by the grace of God,’ and there
in lies the sancity of the crown, which is in
violable.”
And he fulfilled his promise. At the appoint
ed time he placed the “golden round of sov
ereignty” upon his own head, with the remark,
“I wear this crown by the favor of God, and of
nobody else.” A Prince professing and aoting
upon this idea, is not likely to regard republi
canism with much favor, in France or elsewhere.
Curious.—We fail to understand the whys
and wherefores of the actions of the Louisiana
Democrats in their convention with reference
to colored delegates. As we understand the
matter the negroes had been invited to send
delegates to the convention, audit therefore
seems to us that when these delegates arrived,
they should have been admitted without delay
or debate. Upon the policy of extending such
an invitation we offer no opinion, as that is a
matter alwaya to be judged and determined for
thomselves solely by the parties interested; but
after the invitation had been given and the del
egates had presented themselves in good faith'
and with tho regularity of their selection duly
attested, we see no reashd at all why there
should have been any hesitancy in giving them
seats in the convention. It has rather a look of
weakness and timidity that does not auger well
for a bold, vigorous campaign, and an assured
vitory.
A “Fbaxmlkax," Gbbeixko.—Hon. A. EL Ste
phens having been invited to deliver the open
ing address at an Agricultural Fair soon to be
held at Norristown, Pennsylvania, the Philadel
phia Evening Bulletin, one of the very shrillest
ahriekers for “loyalty,” and the divine right of
the Radical party to an unlimited stealage, calls
for a “loyal” mob, in the event of his accep
tance, to drive him from the stand. “If Mr.
Stephens aooepts the invitation, and mwVsvfaA.^
to speak at Norristown,” says that paper, “we
hope loyal people will either have nothing to do
with the enterprise, or will attend and hoot the
speaker from the stand."
This, we suppose, is what that crowd calls
“making treason odious.” We notice that the
dose is too strong even for Forney’s seasoned,
stomach, and he mildly rebukes the Bulletin for
its “blunder;”
Current News.
Thx Ocxan Oabub.—The French cable has
been successfully repaired and all three are now
working withont let or hindrance.
Da. Lobd, late President of Dartmouth Col
lege and well known as & courageous opponent
of abolitionism, died in Hsnover, N. H., 9th
insfc. He was bora in Berwick, Maine, 1792.
More Puotests.—Twenty-six German pro
fessors of law and medicine, in Munich, have
added their signatures to the protest of the theo
logical faculty, against the results of the Ecu
menical Council.
TTrr Themselves.—The Union printers in Cal-
iforni have stiu'.kthemselre? entirely ontof work
All the news papers refuse to re-employ them,
and aretow doing business on their own account.
The Iron Glad Captain was a huge ship of
4,272 tons, carrying a battery of six three hun
dred pound guns, and moved by two engines of
900 horse power. Her armor ranged from eight
to three inches in thickness, and it is said the
Invincible, Iron Duke, Swiftsure, Triumph,
Vanguard, Hercules, Sultan, Hotspur and Glut
ton, now in the English dock yards, are more
heavily plated. The fate of the Captain is a
bad precedent for tho rest of them.
Can’t Tbkat with the Republic.—A 'World
speoial from London says it is alleged that
King William has notified Bismarck perempto
rily that he will permit nothing to be said to
him abont treating with the French Repnblio,
and the King insists only on ample indemnity
for the expenses of the war and the restoration
of the Imperial Government. Very doubtful.
Cotton Bdtebs Don’t Wait pot Those Ex-
tbemely Low Pbices.—Smith, Dunning
Woodward’s circular of tho 10th says j “The
past year having been so disappointing to hold
ers that the tendency is to run to the other ex
treme and expect such very low prices as will
probably keep many from operating at the
proper moment, wo would therefore caution our
friends against waiting for such extremely low
prices as some speak of. We may have them,
butatlG to 1G£ cents, and its equivalent in
Europe, the power of the world to consume
cotton can scarcely be estimated, and any prop
we are likely to have this year will be oonsumed
at an average of these prices.”
Accommodation s eob 100,000 Guests.—B. W.
Wrenn, General Passenger and Ticket Agent
of the Western & Atlantic Railroad, in a circu
lar, says that in the various hotels, boarding
houses, and 500 tents to bo erected in the Park,
accommodations will be provided in Atlanta for
100,000 visitors to the State Fair.
Peace.—A telegram to the World says that
Pranee will aooept any terms of peace from
Prussia, short of dismemberment of her terri
tory, and will be backed by Bu&ia in refusing
this demand. She will consent to a large in
demnity—to dismantle her frontier fortresses
and reduce her army to any extent; but ean’t
give up her soil.
Gbamdiloquxnce.—Victor Hugo and Madame
Goorge Sand are engaged in a lively contest to
see who will strut on the tallest stilts in bar-
ranguing the French. Hugo has tried his hnad
at scaring the Prussians with his apostrophes.
But he is wasting his tim’e and eloquenoe. The
Germans don’t understand his startlers. Let
him try them with good lager and schwit2er
and they would know what that meant. But Ms
exhortations will pass for nothing.
Pboehecies.—A crop of old prophecies and
mystio calculations always springs up on the
heels of startling events. Our old friend Nos-
tradamus has been dug up again with averits-
ble prophecy of the downfall of Napoleon in
1879. But more amusing perhaps to the reader
will be the following pieee of oabalistio figuring,
whioh shows sn odd ooinoidence any-bow.
A small printed sheet, entitled “A remarka
ble Prophecy,” and having reference to Napo
leon's fall, is now in circulation- in Germany,
and gives for the modest sum of one kreutzer
a copy of a most remarkable calculation, wMoh
unites in a singular degree of ingenuity and pro
phecy. From an examination of this singular
bit of political ciphering we obtain the follow
ing facts, as thus:
Louis Phillippe was born 1773
His queen, Amelia 1.1782
They were married 1809
They ascended the French throne 1830
Adding these necromantic numbers together, as
follows:
1830 1830 1830
111
7 7 8
7 8 0
3 2 9
1848 1848 1848
we got the number 1848, a year so fatal to Louis
Phillippe that he lost his throne within its 8G5
calendar days. - -
Now, applying this method of calculation to
the fortunes of the French Emperor, we find
that the ominous dates of the most important
events in his life point as adversely to the year
1870.
Napolon ILL was born.......... 1808
The Empress Eugenie was bora 1826
They were married 1853
And asoended the throne .1853
Adding these figures, as in the case of Louis
Phillippe, we find that the result points to
startingly similar conclusion, whioh, indeed,
the events of the last few days have painfully
verified.

Adjournment.—The Atlanta Bun says the
members of the Agency whose consciences are
not made of cast iron mention ihfc subject once
in a while, but the idea is repulsed as promptly
as a cose of small pox. There seems to be no
disposition to consider an adjournment as a
part of the legitimate business. There is enough
business on the calendar now to employ both
houses until Thanksgiving. Yet now business
Is crowding in in every shape and form, and
very soon there will be enough to stretch the
session out until Christmas.
An awful murder and suicide occurred in
New York city on Friday night. Wm. Marsh,
messenger of the United States corps at Willet’s
Point, visitedahousoof prostitution, 1G1 Greene
street, where he proposed marriage to the pro
prietress of the saloon, Minnie Hartedk She
declined, when Marsh drew a revolver and shot
her in the stomach, and then placing the weapon
to his forohead, fired, inflicting a fatal wound.
Both will die.

r From tho New- York Sun, of Saturday, we ex
tract the following scorching indictment of the
Radical party of Louisiana. It is a paragraph
from an address to the Radicals of that State,
recently issued by the ‘Christian Republican
Association” of Louisiana, which organization
was initiated by the colored preaohers of New
Orleans and has srpead all over the State. Its a
capital democratic campaign document.
“It is the doty of all Christians to strive to
advance and build np the cause of piety and re
ligion in the land. This they cannot do by
countenancing, or silently assenting to the
eleotion of men to the Legislature who un-
blushingly accept of bribes. The Legislature
at its last regular session voted away$I,204,670;
at the special ten day session it voted away
$1,230,707, making $2,435,373, besides the
millions which they gave to the Chattanooga
and other railroads, and the expenses of the
State Government. Men who went into office
about two years ago poor, can now boast of
princely fortunes. These extravagant appro
priations have all lo be paid by the poor peo
ple. If this species of extravagant legislation
should continue a few sessions more, all the
property in the State of Louisiana would not
be sufficient to pay the indebtedness. It would
be almost impossible for a laboror to earn
enough to pay his taxes and support his family.
We appeal to ministers of the Gospel in the
State, as well as to all Christians snd honest men
to join with us in electing men to offioe posses,
sed of religions sentiments, or at least moral
honesty sufficient to enable them to withstand
the seductive influence of bribery and corrup
tion, and who will not vote away money for
speculative purposes, or barter away the prin
ciples of equal rights and justice to promote'
their sel$sh purposes. “When the righteous
are in authority, the people rejoice; but when
the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.”

A Remabkadle Escape.—Last Wednesday,
while two negroes were preparing a mine in a
well at Thurmond’s Mill, for the purpose of
blasting a rock in the bottom thereof, the fuse
caught unexpectedly, and the mino exploded
before .either of tho negroes had time to get out.
Singularly enough, neither of the darkies was
seriously hurt, although a sledge-hammer whioh
one of them was using, was blown ont of the
well. The well is a narrow one, and the wonder
is that both the negroes were not literally blown
to pieces. One of the negroes had Ms right
hand very badly shattered, rendering amputa
tion of one of the fingers necessary, which was
done by Dr. Turner. Beyond this, and a few
burns and bruises, the negroes are notmaterially

The Atlanta Constitution, of yesterday, has
tho following
On Saturday night the down freight train ran
over and killed a man namek George L West,
about a fourth of a mile this side of Stone
Motmtain. Mr. West being under the influence
of liquor, had Btarted for home, unfortunately
taking the railroad track instead of the dirt
road. When he had passed Dr. Hamilton’s res
idence fifteen or twenty feet, he laid down on
the track. The freight train was coming down
grade with some twenty-two box cars attached;
and, although seeing the unfortunate man, could
not check up in time to save him. The cow
catcher struck him, and knocked him in ad
vance of the train for some distance, when Ms
right hand was cut off above the wrist, and
right and left leg below theknoe. The right
arm was next torn from its socket with a por
tion of the ribs attached, and the right leg sev
ered at the tMgh. The remains presented a
sickening spectacle, mangled as the body was.
Mr. West was about fifty years of age, a well-
digger by profession, and leaves a wife, seven
daughters and one son In indigent circum

CONSUMPTION.
The takings of the Northern mills from this
crop have been less during the past year than
during the previous year. This is due to the
belief which prevails among our spinners that
the next crop is likely to be marketed at a lower
range of prices; this belief having induced
them to run down a considerable portion of the
large stock they carried over last September.
Hence, notwithstanding they have taken less
from the crop, their actual consumption has
increased, as is more fully explained below.
Our usual summary, showing tho result for the
year, North and South, is as follows:
Total crop of the United
States as above stated... bales 3,154,94G

The foregoing statement indicates that the
Northern mills have taken from this crop 806,-
860 bales. Since these figures were prepared
we have received a preliminary report (more
fully given in our weekly cotton report of to
day) of the actual consumption of the mills dur
ing the year. The report referred to is made
up from returns received from 76 per cent, of
the Northern mills, and the result reached is
that the North has used 807,662 bales during
the twelve months, but has only taken from tins
crop 777,662 bales, the balance, 30,000 bides,
being the amount of old stock oonsumed.
What They Say of It.
We continue below our record of the response
to Mr. Stephens’ letter by the Democratic press
of Georgia:
We tMnk the spirit of the letter is in bad
taste, and indicates that its writer is a man of
little discretion, and the wroDg man for the po
sition of Chairman of tho Executive Demo
cratic Committee. The idea of a man, one man,
advising a course opposite to the one recomend-
ed by the true and tried members of Congress,
advising a disregard of the advice of the Na
tional Democratic Committee, and repudiating
the Bentimest advanced by the Executive Com
mittee of the State, is simply ridiculous, and
savors of imbecility.—Griffin Middle Georgian.
Wo have no room for any lengthy comment
on the aboard and miscMevous letter of Judge
Linton Stephens, accepting the position of
Chairman of the Executive Committee of. the
Dsmocratio party of the State.
As he says, they are “his own views,” and
the Dsmocratio party of Georgia should not be
held responsible for them. They are not the
views of the Democratic party of this State,' and
as conventions will soon be held in all the Con
gressional Districts to nominate Democratic
candidates for CoDgrees, the several conven
tions ought to disavow “the views” expressed
by Judge Stephens in his^letter. This will let
the letter stand os the expression of his individ
ual opinion, and place the party right before
the country.—Monroe Advertiser.
Unanimous!—The sentiments of the Demo
cratic and conservative people of the State, and

Link Stephens shall immediately withdraw from

We are not less grieved than surprised at
the recommendation of Hon. Linton Stephens,
Ohairman of the State Democratio Exeontive
Committee, in his letter to the Secretary of said
Committee, that the nomination of candidates

reconsider and reverse Ms opinion, or, that he
trill resign a position in which he misrepresents

written, just at this time. Judge Stephens’
views are erroneous and impolitic, and if this

DEMOCRATIC KOMINAflOHS for CONGRESS
ELIGIBILITY OF CANDIDATES.
Probably all the Congressional Districts in
tMs State will hold Conventions during the pres
ent month to nominate candidates for the un
expired term of the 41st, and for the full term
of the 42d, Congress.
It is a matter of no little importance that the
Conventions of the Democratio party should
look carefully to the eligibility and qualifica
tions of the candidates whom they may nomi
nate. It will be utterly useless .to nominate
any one who, if elected, will be refused a seat in
Congress on account of ineligibility.
What are the grounds of such exclusion ? To
be admitted to a seat a member elect must not
only be free from the disqualifications imposed
by the 14th amendment of tho Constitution of
the United States, but, as a farther qualifica
tion, he will be required to take what is known
as the test or iron-clad oath, unless relieved
from the same.
It is presumed that no Democratic Conven
tion in the State will nominate a candidate for
Congress who can take that oath, unless it
should be done in the First District, in wMch
there is a gentleman of ability, known to be a
reliable Democrat, who, if nominated and elect
ed, could take the oath and not be considered
offensive to hi3 party. But, as a general rule,
the Democratio party will not nominate candi
dates for CoDgress who can conscientiously take
the test oath. Such candidates would not receive
the support of the party,.if nominated.
The conventions, then, in nominating candi
dates, should be careful to nominate no one of
whom tho test oath will, be required if elected.
That oath will not be required of members elect,
whose disabilities have been removed by net of
Congress.
Tne only safe nominations which can be made
will be of men whose disabilities have been re
moved. They are not only not obnoxious to the
disqualifications imposed by the 14th amend
ment, but they are relieved from taking the test
oath.. . It was in this way that Messrs, Tift and
Young, Democratic members from Georgia were
admitted into the Fortieth Congress without
taking the Congressional test oath. Their dis
abilities were removed before they were admit
ted, and hence they were relieved from the oath.
But it will not be safe to nominate Democrat
ic candidates with the expectation that, if elect
ed, their disabilities will be removed. That re
moval will not be made, if the Republicans re
tain a majority in the House of Representa
tives. The body wMch turns ont members who
are certainly elected because they are Demo
crats, and admits the contestants who were not
elected simply to swell the Republican majority
in Congress, will not be very apt and ready to
remove the diaabilites of Democratic members
to enable'them to take their seats. It is a fit
of liberality and magnamimity which is not
likely to. come upon them. Nor will it be po
litic or safe to depend upon the contingency of
the Democrats having a majority in the House
of Representatives in the 42d Congress. That
contingency may happen, or it may not—and
the latter k the most probable.
With the patronage of the Federal govern
ment at their command, and holding it to be a
matter of immense importance to the Republi
can party to retain control of the Houso of Re
presentatives, the Democratio party has fearfol
odds to contend against to get a majority in that
body, and it cannot be looked for with any rea
sonable degree of certainty.
The safe plan, and the only safe plan, will be
for the conventions to confine their nominations
of candidates to Democrats whose disabilties
have beeu removed. If such should be nomi
nated and elected, there can be no pretext for
excluding them from seals. Any others would
be excluded, either by tho operation of the 14th
amendment, or if not obnoxious to that, the
test oath would he required of them and would
exolude them.
Bat there seems to bo a prejudice entertained
by some against those whose disabilities have
been removed, and it arises from a presumption
that they asked a Republican Congress to re
lieve them. In answer to this objection it may
be said thatitis not known whetherthey sought
relief voluntarily, or whether it was granted at
the instance of some friend in Congress without
their knowledge. But be that as it may. Even
if the relief from disabilities was voluntarily
sought, it should not be made the ground of ob
jection to any one who is known to be a reliable
Democrat. On the contrary, we should be glad
to have it in our power to nominate and elect
Democrats to Congress who are not in danger
of being excluded for want of eligibility; and
it would be fortunate for the interests of the
State if we had more of such men, not only eli
gible to seats in Congress, bnt in the Legislature,
where we most need need their services. . .
It takes ns a long time to learn to “accept the
situation.” By the 14th amendment a diaabill
ty to hold office has been imposed on certain
classes of men, which may be removed by a
vote of two-tMrds in eaoh house of Congress,—
It is there—in the Constitution—whether we
like it or not, and, being a part of the Consti
tution, we cannot esoape its operation. Now, it
is the part of wisdom to have this disability re
moved from as many of our citizens as possible,
in order that we may have their servioes in
whatever station they may be called by their
fellow-citizens. The State now feels the want
of the services of men of experience who, on ac
count of their disability, are excluded from hold
ing office; and we have pursued a mistaken policy
in not getting more of them relieved from their
disabilities. If it had been done when Congress
was in the humor of granting relief, there would
not now be suoh a dearth of wisdom and experi
ence in our Legislature, and when we come to
nominate candidates for Congress and the Leg
islature, we would not be oonfined to so narrow
a circle fromwMoh to make selections.
But we have suffered the day to pass. There
is not much probability that any inoro will bo
relieved from their disabilities who are known
to be Democrats, until there is a change in the
strength in Congress.
Then let us hear no more of this prejudice
against men who have had their disabilities re
moved. If wei cannot use them for candidates,
pray whom oan we use? We take it for granted
that the Democratic party of Georgia will not
nominate candidates for Congress, who can
take the test oath ; and if the prejudice against
those whose disabilities have been removed
shall prevail, we ask where can candidates be
found for the Democratio ticket, who are eligi
ble, and who oan take their seats if eleeted ?
Not those who are ineligible, for it would be
worse than folly to run them. The interests of
the great Democratic party of the country re
quire the nomination of Democrats who will not
be excluded, if elected, by reason of disquali
fication! under the 14th Amendment, and by be
ing required to lake th* test oath.

The illustrious warrior having failed to secure
the Radical nomination for Governor of New

the German vote which he was wooing so ten

he actually gives tho Germans notice that he is
going back on them. In the Tribune, of Sat
urday, ho writes as follows:
When Napoleon, on a flimsy pretext, declared
war against the North German Confederation
tiie sympathies of nearly all free people were
instantly enlisted on the aide of Prussia, because
the declaration was so evidentlyunjust, and be
cause the real objects of the Emperor clearly
wore to consolidate his own family interests, to
establish Cmsarism, and to prevent the unity of
~®. j*® 1 *? 811 nation. But the considerations
which influenced the sympathies of the United
States at first are fast giving place to others,
ihe conditions are changed. Csasarism is over
thrown. The Bonapartes have fallen for a sec
ond time, and their fall we trust is forever.
German unity ia secured. German liberty we
hope is not far off. The viotora oan afford to
be magnanimous, and if they press too severely
upon the vanquished they may lose tho good

look to and obey a better authority, which s
dares that, “in the sweat of thy face ring .iT®’
eat bread.” This ia the law of labor, &
from'the high chancery of Heaven. wa
Labor- intelligent, well directed agticultnr»l
labor, is the substratum of individual and na
tional wealth. No people were ever great now*
erfal, prosperous and independent, who a’idnot
command an abundant supply of alltheneces.
sarie* of life, without buying them from for
signers and paying for them. Wealth consist
otl capital and an abundance of the exchanges-
ble and consumable commodities, which elo'he
and feed the world, and oommand those lam
ries wMoh administer to the wants of a refined
society. AU these desirable acquisitions mav
be ultimately resolved into labor. i
In the, investigation of proof for the estab
lishment of our proposition, it is a matter of
curious speculation to analyze, the grandenr of
Rome and Greece, to trace the sources of the
wealth of those non-prodneiog powers, and to
find that they form no exception to the genenl
rule, that no nation has ever permanently pros
pered whose home labor, did not feed, clothe and
support them in all their neoessary and artifi.
cial wants. It is true, that Rome did not exert
agricultural labor at home, and although she
gathered within her granaries, vast supplies from
surrounding peoples, she did not, for she coold
not, pay for them. Hex system of acquisition
and the sources of her wealth was national rol-
bery. The Latin race founded the imperial
city, and extended its ’ dominions iu all direc
tions, conquering and to conquer, like the ex.
pending cirale on water, until it reached every
shore. Genius and knowledge were power, and
the Eagles were the “emblems of deeds dons
in their clime”—of conquest and contributions
extorted by force. From the Atlantic to tha
Ganges and the Indies, their pro-ConsuIs, Gen
erals and Revenue officers, levied those vast
sums of money and provisions from every plan-
dered province, wMoh fed snd clothed her
armies and people, and made Rome the mis.
tress of the world.
The same may be said of “living Greece,"
onoe great, glorious and powerful—the iundof
the arts and sciences, of poetry,(philosophy and
oratory. TMs system of robbery was the re-
oognized politico-morality of the age; it mi
hallowed by Time, and consecrated by the suc
tion of great names. When Telemachns and
his retinae presented themselves at the Court
of Neatos, King of Pylos, the old “sage” asked
them, “are yon Pirates or Merchants?” Thee*
classes wera equally respectable, and the pro-
Consuls aud Generals were but Land-Pirates;
“all honorable men.” Traces of this system sre
preserved in modem war, both on land and
.water, but more especially in naval warfare,
whose operations constitute unsparing and un
mitigated Piracy.
The feudal system iff the middle ages, a fabric
built upon necessity, was a modified system of
robbery, pioneering tha way to the rights of
labor; and the present governments of Europe,
from the agitation of past revolutions, have
orystalized into oonnrete structures, whose
grandeur rests upon the mud-sills of society,
“the toiling millions,'**• all 1 artistically regulated
bylaw. eaxttop
But the American revolution having thrown
off these tyrannies, having discarded the feudal
and established the allodial right to property,
Labor is enthroned with ns as the source of in
dividual and national wealth. As the authority
to rob and plunder by custom and by law, ia
now denied, it may safely be said, that no peo
ple who do not raise their own food supplies at
home, ean be prosperous and wealthy.
* It is true, that oommero* is one of the great
est of civilizing and christianizing forces, and
should be enoouraged, to the extent of trade
and intercourse with all nationalities. Besides,
the manufacturer and the merchant are proda-
oers of wealth, in this, that they add new and
additional values to tha productions of the earth
or to the materials put into their hands. Bnt
this trade should be wisely oonfined, as far u
possible, to the eurpiut whieh each haatoipue,
one with another, whilst the pabulum of lift,
food supplies, should be raised at home, if J#
wish permanently to preserve the vitality of i
people. Look to the instructive lessons of Eag-
and and the continent of Europe. They an
the manufacturing workshops of the world, tnd
yet they endeavor to feed their people from tb*
productions of the soil. Mark with what in
