Geobok Frederick*, the brother of
Charles D. Fredericks, the photogra

suicide last Thursday. His dose of

that, employed him.
Suicides have become very frequent
since the late panic, it seems to us.
Wo fear that this mode of getting rid
of trouble is literally “jumping from

Mr. Nordhoff, Bpccial correspond

please the central aud chief orgun of
the Republican party, the Washing
ton Motional Republican." This was
inadvertently printed "the Waihiny
ton Chronicle, and the remarks which
have so excited the journalistic cour
tesy (?) of tho Chronicle were based
on the letter of Mr. Nordhoff. Mr.
Nordhoff usod this language :
But the orgun thinks differently.
Speaking in the name of tbo Republi
can Administration, whose mouth
piece it, is, it bus tho folly to ussert
that if a man is a German by blood:
tie is, therefore, not to bo believed; if i

unworthy of confluence.

If not, is it prudent In you to ullow
your orgun to offer such a wanton in
sult to a very large number of citizens,
Germans aiid Jews, who mostly vote
the Republican ticket, and whose
votes next year will be absolutely in
dispensable to the success of the par
ty ? You ought to muzzle your dog,
tne National Republican. A recent

THU CREiai OF Flliai 111 UIE.
[COSTIHfXn.i
WII.I, EH EE TRADE TEND TO DIMINISH
THE OPPORTUNITIES AND REWARDS Ol
DOMESTIC INDUSTRY?
Upon no one argument have the
advocates of protection relied more,
. in support of their system, than the
assumption that, if there were no re
strictions on trade, the opportunity
of labor created by protection and
the results of the expenditure of the
earnings of such labor would be di
verted to other countries to their
benefit, aud to the corresponding
protection bj' reason of a necessity
for paying higher wages or other in
dustrial inequalities, abandons it;
or, to speak more spcclflcullv, it is
assumed that if the United States
wro *endopn poirey of free rmrtc,
England would supply us with cot
ton aud metal fabrications, German v
with woollen goods, Nova Scotia with
coal, the West Indies exclusively with
sugar, Russia with hemp and tallow,
Canada with lumber and Australia
with wool; that thereby opportunity
to our own people to labor would be
greatly restricted, aud the wages of
labor be reduced to a level with the
wages of foreigners. Specious us is
this argument, there could not be a
greater error of fact or a worse soph
ism of reason. None of the commod
ities mentioned will be given by the
producers resident in foreign coun
tries for nothing. Product for pro
duct is tho invariable law of ex
change, mid wo cannot buy u single
article abroad save through the medi
um of something that must be pro
duced at home. Hence the titter ab
surdity of that assertion which, to
Protectionists, seems pregnant with
such dreadful meaning, namely,
“that-, under Free Trade, we should
bo deluged with foreign goods;” for
if move should be really im
ported under a Free Trade than
under a Productive policy, then one
of two things would bike place:
eit her we must produce more at home
in order to pay for the new excess of
imports, in which case domestic in
, dustry would be stimulated and not
diminished ; or, not producing more,
we must obtain more in return, or.
what is the same thing, a higher
price for what we already produce—a
result manifestly conducive to na
tional prosperity. It would also seem
1 to bo in tho nature of a self-evident
■ proposition, that, nothing under any
circumstance can or will be imported
unless that m which it is paid for can
. bo produced at home with greater
final advantage. Again, the favorite
i protectionist argument that, if trade
is unrestricted and the people of a
' country, under the inducement of
greater cheapness, arc allowed to
supply themselves with foreign oom
■ uiodittes, the opportunities for the
> employment of domestic labor will
i be correspondingly diminished, is an
Argument identical in character with
i hat which has in past times often
red individuals and whole communi
ties to oppose the invention and in
troduction of labor-saving or “labor-1
dispensing” machinery. But to sirt!
thoroughly this sophism, it is suffi
cient to remember that labor is not;
exerted for the sake of labor, but l’or'
what, labor brings, and that human
wants expand just In proportion to
the multiplication of the means and
opportunity of gratifying human de
sires. If the wages of a day’s labor
would purchase iri the market one
hundred times as much as at, present,
can any one doubt that the demand
for the necessaries and luxuries
of llfo would be increased u
hundred-fold ? If the people
of tills country could obtain the pro
ducts of'the labor of other countries
for nothing, could tho labor of the
whole world supply tho quantity of
things we should want? In short,
the demand for results of labor can
never be satisfied, and is never limit- j
ed except by Its ability to buy ; and j
the cheaper things are, the morei
things will be purchased and con-;
sumed. Nothing, therefore, can bo
more irrutional thun the supposition ;
that increased cheapness or increased
ability to buy and consume dimin
ishes or restricts the opportunity to;
labor. If by the Invention of m-;
chlnory or the discovery of cheaper!
sources of supply the labor of a oer-;
tain number of individuals In a de
partment of industry become* s<i|>er-;
lluous or unnecessary, such labor j
must take anew direction, and it is i
not to be denied that in the process
of readjustment temporary individ
ual inconvenience and perhaps suf
fering may result. But any tempor
ary loss thus sustained by individuals
Is more than made up to society, re
garded from the standpoint of either
producers or consumers, by the in
creased demand consequent on in
creased cheapness through greater
material abundance, aud therefore
greater comfort and happiness.
About the time of the invention and
Introduction of tho sewing machine
into Europe the benevolent people of
a city iu Germany, where tho indus
try of needlewomen was a marked
specialty, formed uu organization to
lessen iu a degree the injury which
it was believed the use of the machine
would inevitably occasion to tlie
poor by supplanting the necessity
for their employment. After the
lapse of a few yours, however, when
society, as represented by the whole
people of the city, obeying the na
tural instincts, had determined to
have, and had obtained, a cheaper
source of supply for their needle pro
ducts than before, the organization
referred to found that their further
existence was wholly unnecessary,
inasmuch as the result of their in
vestigations showed that by reason
of a greater consumption of sewed
goods, consequent on their cheaper
supply, a much larger number of
persons were engaged lu the operat-1
Ingot sewing machines than former
ly found employment by tiie needle,j
and that wages had increased rather,
than diminished. From these prem-;
isos, therefore, the following deduc- j
lions may be regarded as iu the ua- !
turn of economic axioms: First -A!
nation or community can attain the I
greatest prosi>erity nnd secure to its j
people the greatest degree of mate-1
rial abundance only when it utilizes j
its natural resources and labor to the |
best advantage and with the least
waste and loss, whatever may be tiro
nominal rate of wages iiid to its la
borers. Tho realization of such u re
sult is hastened or retarded by what
ever removes or creates obstructions
or interferences in the way of pro
duction and exchanges. Second The
exports, on the whole, of any country
must ami always do balance its im
ports, which is equivalent to saying
that if we do not tiuy we cannot sell,
while neither buying nor selling will
take place unless there i* a real or
supposed advantage to both parties
to the transaction. Third Asa na
tion exports only those things for
which it possesses decided advanta
ges relatively to other nations in pro
ducing, it follows that what a nation
purchases by its exports it purchases
by its most efficient labor, and con
sequently at the cheapest possible
rate to itself. Hence, the price paid
for every foreign manufactured arti
cle, instead of being so much given
for the encouragement, of foreign la
bor to the prejudice of our own, is as
truly tho product of our own labor
n* though wo hud directly manufac
tured it ourselves. Free Trade, there
fore, can by no possibility discourage
1 home labor or diminish the real wu
i ges of laborers.
DOES PROTECTION ENCOURAGE DIVERSITY
OF INDUSTRY.
The averment that prohibition or
restriction of foreign imports encour
ages diversity of domestic industry is
answered by saying that when any
trade can be introduced or underta
ken for fiscal or public advantage,
private enterprise is competent toils
accomplishment. “To ask for more
is only to ask to have a finger in the
public purse.” It may be possible to
conceive of specific eases In which it
might bo politic for a Government to
give an advantage for a limited time
anti for a definite object. But protec
tion, as an economic system, cannot
rightfully claim any support from
such an admission, Inasmuch as its
demands is that public shall be
obliged to support all manufacturing
enterprises iq>on no other ground
then that they cannot support them
selves.
DOES PROTECTION TEND To CHEAPEN
MANUFACTURED PRODUCTS ?
Protection, it is alleged, has a ten
dency to make what are termed man
ufactured products cheaper. Avery
tlt nnd cogent answer which has been
made to this assertion of the oppo
nents of Free-trade is, that if protec
tion is to be recommended because it
leads ultimately to cheapness, it were
best to begin with cheapness. An
other answer is to bo found in the
circumstance that not a single in
stance can be adduced to show that
any reduction has ever taken place
in the cost of production under u
system of protection, through the
agencies of new inventions, discover
ies and economies, which would not
have taken place equally soon under
a system of Free Trade; while, on the
eotitrary, many instances can be re
ferred to which prove that Protect ion,
by removing the dread of foreign com
petition, has retarded not only inven
tion, but also the application and use
of improvements anu inventions else
where devised and introduced. Tims,
referring to the experience of the
United States, where the system of
Protection has in general prevailed
for inniiv years, it is a well-known
fact thut tlie department of industry,
which has been distinguished more
than any other by the invention aud
application of labor saving machinery
is that of agriculture, which has nev
er been protected to any extent; and
forthe reason that in a country which
raises a surplus of nearly all its agri
cultural products for sale iu foreign
countries it never cau be. On the
other hand, in that department of
industry engaged in the primary man
ufacture of iron, which has always
been especially shielded by high re
strictive duties,not only from foreign
competition, but also from the neces
sity of the exercise of economy and
skill, the progress in the direction of
improvement has been so slow that,
according to the report of the geolo
gical of Ohio (.1871) there is hardly js
furnace iu that great iron-producing
Suite that cau be compared with the
best English furnaces, in respect eith
er to construction, management or
product, and that “there is scarce auy
art practised by onr people so emi
nently progressive.” which Is “so far
from having reached perfection as
this one" of simple iron-smelting,
(commitneo is nu issrr.)
Every day we have some new evi
dence of the sincerity of the South in
the desfro expressed by Geri. Fitz
bugh Lee and others at the Bunker
Hill celebration fora restoration of
complete fraternity between the once
estranged sections of tho country. Of
late South Carolina has taken the
lead in manifestations of zeal in this
direction. The proposition now mude
by the Washington Light Infantry of
Charleston that a Centennial Legion
composed of military organizations
from the original Thirteen States of
the Union shall he organized us a
feature of the great celebration in
Philadelphia next year is a happy
conception, and wo have no doubt
that it will receive, as it should, hear
ty responses of approval and co-oper
aiion from nil of the “Old Thirteen.”
