All the boars for miles around according

Chinese Tradesmen.—The Oakland

Chinese cheap labor there. As soon as
the Chinamen learn the trade they will
inevitably control it, and end by monopo
lizing this important industry. It is in
this way that they have secured absolute
possession in San Francisco of the manu
facture of boots and shoes, throwing mil
lions of capital and hundreds of iwhite
workmen out ot employment. As; soon
as a Chinaman learned the trade ou£ and
out lie would quit working for the manu
facturer and set up in business on lib own
account, Chinese capitalists mmislilng
money to pay the cost of machinery, and
In a short time his goods would be in the
market, underselling those of tlie man
who had taught him the manner of work

Mongolians now have nearly the whole
of that branch of trade, the former white
employers having been bankrupted or
driven out of business by this kind of
comp -tition.”

'" 1 PAlNrtfiC.—Il'ls painful to discover the
bad refutation borne by politicians in
this’ country; In Chicago; it is gravely
stated that rooms in her hotels during the
session of the Kepublicafi National Con
vention, are held at fifty dollars per day,
and no abatement allowed. In Cincin
nati, during the session of the Democratic
National Convention, the per diem- charg
ed delegates is eight dollars—a. lower
personal rate than that fixed by Chicago,
unless delegates will pack themselves at
the rate of six or seven to the'room. Tak
ing the tebret tieio of these Convention
delegates possible, we can hardly'allow
that the risk of loss and damage from
them can be even three times as mucli as
from other people (as Cinciifnatl makes
it), or ten times as much, as Chicago as
sumes it to be. Chicago; it is true, has
had twenty-four years’ experience with
delegates to Republican Conventions, and
should, therefore, understand their “tricks
and their manners,” and be able to set an
approximate valuation ch them,' hut re
ally, we are not prepared (o'say that a
Republican delegate to a National Con
vention Is necessarily ten times more dan
gerous than other people.
Op the seventy Democratic editors in
the State of New York, who replied to the
Oswego Palladium's interrogatories, fifty-

does not look much like a Tilden boom,
even in his own State. To force such a
candidate upon the , party,- merely as a
sentiment, growing out of his foul treat
ment at the hands of the High Commis
sion, might prove a fatal error. We trust
the attempt will not succeed.

The Terms of the Great Railway
Combination.
Gradually, all the particulars of the late
Newcombe-Wadlcy combination are com

amalgamation into one line, so far as
through freights are concerned, of the
Louisville and Nashville, and the Central,
and Georgia railroads. Thecharges will
be pro-rated according to distance,and the
’contract is to continue in force for ten

An Atlanta special to the Cincinnati
Gazette says “the result of the conference
was a final arrangement for tlie combina
tion which lias been under consideration
for a week past. All diiliculties were set
tled and a contract for ten yearn was
signed by the Presidents of all the roads
affected, i ,-
It provides for the consolidation of the
Louisville and Nashville, Western and At
lantic and Georgia and Central, with all
its branches in through freight business.
All through freights are to go as over one
road; and tariffs are to he pro-rated ac
cording to mileage. All other business of
the roads is undisturbed, and tlieir inter
nal management remains intact.
This arrangement gives the Louisville
and Nashville railroad .cpntrol of every
leading line in Georgia, and also captures
the South Carolina railroad through line
from Louisville and St. Louis thus estab-
llshed.Savannah and Charleston will be
the.porta. Fort Royal and. other harbors

' The arrangement is not favorably con
sidered here, and there Will be much dis
satisfaction among stockholders, of the
Georgia lines. This combination will les
sen competition and will deprive Atlanta
of the Georgia and Western, which the
Lonistille and Nashville would have been
compelled to.build iftlie combination had
not been made. This line would have
furnished cheap coal,Atlanta’s great need.
To Conciliate opposition, It is agreed inthe
contract of the combination, to bripg coal
here as cheap as if the Georgia Wes
tern were built.
The new line In construction from Chat

there is-a grow ingdeeling in favor of the'

could pieet the Macon andDrunswick ex

their money to build connecting lines.
And this, will he "no calamity to them.

The Cincinnati Commercial, also, con-
,tains a Nashville dispatch which explains
the hitch between the presidents of the
Louisville and Nashville road and the
Central. We quote as follows;
It’ is nndeistocd here that ore of the
main points for which Brown and Wadley,
of thff Western and Atlantic and Georgia
Central, contended was that freights which
were formerly sent via Chattanooga and
subsequently changed around via Monfe

made by Cole in attempting to inaugurate

definite understanding arrived at.

therefore, b« allowed to encroach upon

naturally belongs to the roads mentioned
This is an important point gained for

to hear of . important modifications in

The English Elections.—The Her
ald’s London telegrams of Friday show
the following result so far: Liberals, 321;
Conservatives, 20S; Home Rulers, 39; 678
elocted. Liberal gain 97; Liberal majority
over all 74. The Queen was expected to
to arrive at the end of this week. The
Times of Saturday morning says:
If Mr. Gladstone remains outside the
Ministry it will be impossible to oonsti-
tute in on a thoroughly sound basis. The
Times estimates the Liberals in tlie new
House will number about 340 and the
Home Rulers from 60 to 65. The Con
servatives ean hardly count on more than
250. The Liberals will thus find tlieir
position in-the new Parliament nearly the
same as that of the present government in
the late Parliament.
•The memorial which is being ad
dressed to Queen Victoria in support of
the legalization of marriage with a de
ceased wife’s sister, by tlie mayors and ex-
revenue it yields,is grossly in excess ofthe
wants of the country. The New York
Daily Bulletin, (a highly intelligent and
non-partisan paper) says it produces fifty
millions more than is needed. And if it
produces that excess of revenue, tho
amount of lax actually collected out of
the people—first on foreign merchandise,
and secondly in the way of the increased
cost oi domestic manufactures, is alto
gether conjectural. We know it must be
something enormous and incalculable.
The other day, Mapleson, the English
opera manager, commenting on the rela
tive cost of carrying on his business in
London and New York, mentioned one
fact as an illustration of the whole. Says
he, “I this day paid a hill for a bonnet for
my wife, the amount of which was sixty-
five dollars. The Jasi, bonnet I bought
was very similar and made for her by the
milliner of the Princess of Wales—the
charge for which was fifteen dollars.”
No man nor woman, without long an^
careful study, can have. the faintest idea
of the grinding eifeebof this protective ta
riff taxation,pn tlie people. It may be
compared to the application of the lancet
to every part of .the human body.' The
loss of vital strength is felt, but tlie escape
of blood from np 4 put is sufficiently great
to clamor for instant suppression, whije
tbe supply of new blood consequent on the
generous resources of the country is lib
eral.
There is- scfurcely an article within the
.range of human wants which is. not com
pelled to pay its tribute of about fifty per
cent, or an average to this enormous gulph
of taxation for government and for the
protected classes. If it were for Govern
ment alone, and the proceeds were devo
ted to the legitimate,expenses and liabili
ties of government, no complaint would
be heard.
But only a small part. goes to govern
ment,. and there is no reasonable doubt
that these excessive duties, by- operating
as a bar to importation, largely diminish
revenues, though they enormously swell,
prices on competing articles of foreign
manufacture. The tariff,as it now stands,
is not laid primarily for revenue, hut pri
marily to give American manufactures the
benefit Of a higher price, and this price
must come out of the. American people-
This is what protection means, and it
might find apology in a new country,
where it wa3 necessary to stimulate man
ufactures," but in a country like ours, witii
a manufacturing skill and outfit actually
superior to any other, It Is intolerably, ab
surd.
Anfl its effect upon our manufactures is
oftentimes unwholesome. A few months
ago, owing to the long prostration of busi
ness, prices took a sudden rise and de
mand outran supply. Then came a con
stant succession of strikes, and the cost of
production was largely increased. Then
followed a diminution of demand, and the
next step is the stoppage of the mills in
order to reduce the supply, |
There is nothing healthy in such a trade
—nothing natural. It Is like the labor of
a man stimulated by frequent potations
from the whisky bottle. He is working
with fury one hour and asleep the next.
The trade of a country built upon snch a
system is in a blue way. The system is
Itself so false and unnatural that it must
be abandoned, and then must come a long
and extensive readjustment. Whateveris
wrong and false in principle cannot en
dure.
But what is most particularly offensive
to the people is to find In this present Con
gress that they Are utterly powerless
against this folly and injustice. A few
manufacturing representatives of some of
the silliest, most offensive and Iniquitous
of these tariff extortions," really outweigh
all the reason of tbe case and all senti
ments bit; public justice. Weleur it is
necessary for many Congressmen, in this
connection, to pnrge themselves of preg
nant suspicions of sinister motives. The
mass ofthe American people don't like to
be outweighed before committees by half
a dozbn bounty-fattened manufacturers,
although testifying in store-clothes.
And then, A© to what is made out of
these exorbitant protective diitiel, the use
of it in bounties to steamhoits, and rail
roads, supplementing unlawful deficien
cies in appropriations, granting absurd'
pensions, chartering traveling .committees
to visit watering places in the summer,
and so on—we say the way the surplus is
spent don’t help the cause of truth and
righteousness. !„• > .„.-, j j ) .’f

An Appeal fbr a Worthy Object
Our readers will remember that a short
time ago the pleasant village of Lumpkin,
Stewart county, was so unfortunate as to
lose by fire its principal and much cher
ished educational institution, the Female
Masonic College. The people of that
community are making strenous efforts,
however, to rebuild the College, and have
made an appeal for help to their fellow
citizens of Georgia. Committees have
been appointed in different portions ofthe
State to solicit funds for that purpose.
As already announced, Colonel Thomas
Hardeman, Jr., and Messrs. Flanders
Brothers having been designated to act
for them here, have accepted the commis
sion, and will gladly receive and turn
over into the proper channel all snm. ; do
nated for the above laudable object. We
trust there will be a liberal response not
only from the members ofthe Masonic or
der, but by many others of our public
spirited citizens. /.

seen elsewhere, the name of Mr. D.
N. Speer, of Troup county, is an

the LaGrangc Reporter, and a number of
influential members of the three last Leg
islatures endorse him very warmly. We
have no doubt that, if elected, he will
make an upright and excellent officer.

California Wiirrisf‘For Europe.-
The first vessel ever chartered to cany

for Bremen with a cargo of 100,000 gal
lons, which was ordered by one of the
largest firms in that" city,"and which is in
tended for the'German market exclusive
ly. This seems something like carrying
coals to Newcastle until we recollect that
by the destructive visits of the phylloxera
apd other plagues the German wlue-grow-
ers are sadly crippled and the dealers find
it necessary to import wines from some
other quarter. The San Francisco Chroni
cle believes that the experiment is one of
great future moment and that if success
results, as there is reason to believe will
he the case, an immense market will be
opened to our wine producers. The vin
tages from which the cargo in question
has been selected are of a character to en
dure a long sea voyage. The experiment
will be watched with much interest, par

The Tribune makes this comment: It

of course know how to build railroads.
This will give Cincinnati a direct line to

Drs. Starkey & Palen—Gentlemen:
It is contrary to my rules to give certifi
cates to the many healing remedies that
are advertised, but my experience with
Compound Oxygen has been such that I
feel it my duty to recommend it to all my
acquaintances suffering from overwork
and a tendency to pulmonary trouble, In
October, 1878,1 was in very poor health.
My system had been much overtaxed, and
a cold contracted in the spring seemed to
have taken permanent hold on my lungs.
I had had several slight hemorrhages, was
troubled with a cough, and was much re
duced in flesh. I was discouraged and
my family alarmed at my condition. A
friend in Boston sent my wife one of your
little books, strongly recommending your
remedy. I was besought to order the
Home'Treatment, and did so. I followed
instructions faithfully,and in threa mouths
was a new man. My troubles had almost
entirely disappeared. The improvement
had been quiet, hut certain and sure from
the time 1 first began its use. I feel very
grateful to you for it, aud wish that I
could persuade all suffering in a similar
way to perseveringly use your very sim
ple and effective remedy. Business is very
confining and exacting, and when I take
cold and feel myself running down, I re
sort to Compound Oxygen, and it is al
ways prompt in its results. I feel like
commending it to all. It is not a ktll-or-
cure remedy. If it does not cure, it surely
does not injure. Yours truly,
