Now, what has Henry YVurdJOrady to say to that ? • A okkeual rupturo in the Lanca shire cotton trade may be looked for. The cotton mill operatives have held a crowded mooting at Oldtxuro, and resolved to refuse tho master’s terms lixiug the rates of wuges. Oldham contains 40,tK)0 operatives. This will be the state of affairs all over this country if the Radicals are not ousted and corrupt oftleiuls hurled from power. It begins to look as if the currency question would after all be tho one about which parties must reorganize. It is certainty tho uppermost ono at present, in national politics and in tho general public thought. More letters about it are received at this office than on auy other subject we hud almost, said than on all other subjects combined, the Beecher trial included.- iY I'. Tribune. Eon our own part, we care little whether the candidate of the Demo crats and Conservatives for the Presi dency shall be chosen from the North, the East or the West. All we want is that ho shall be an impartial patriot-, a broad-brained statesman, and in sincere sympathy with the highest and best Interests of the whole American people. Richmond Whiff (I)em.) We endorse that sentiment. Geobok Frederick*, the brother of Charles D. Fredericks, the photogra pher of New York City, committed suicide last Thursday. His dose of morphine which caused his death was taken because ho could not get the money due him by the company 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 the frying pan into the lire.” "Did you ever soo a farmer who was blessed with good season?” asked a friend tho other day. Yes; whenever a farmer plants a diversity of crops the seasons are certain to be passably good. He, may loose on one crop b,ut lie will make on anoth er. Don’t put nil your eggs in one basket, nor risk all you have on one crop. It will not pay to raise one crop In order to buy another, it mat ters not how much figures lie about it. • -♦■ • Wf. want more foreign-born citi zens in Columbus. The presence of large numbers of foreigners in a city identified with its business interests, Is the best index of its prosperity and promisi for the future. We. want the tide of foreign immigration to turn in tliis direction. We want every in ducement hold out to them, so that our foreign-born citizens will induce others to cotne. At present, no town in Georgia can boast of better for eign-born citizens than Columbus. We wish that there were ten thou sand more Etifbpeuns settled here. They come among us to remain per manently, and nearly always pros per? The man who makes his busi ness profitable to himself, is a gain to any community. The benefits ol trade are always reciprocal. The salary of a Georgia Supreme Judge is ouly 93,500 per annum. There are few lawyers competent who would take the position at tho money. But. then, there is the glory of the thing. # Ex-Judges Trippe and MoCay have formed a law partnership, with office in Atlanta. Theyhnve already been returned in a ease with a 913,000 fee nenrly as much as they get in two years on the Supreme Bench. =- “Tho spirit of know-nothlnglsm Is being revived by the Radical party, and as it emanated from the official organ of tho Radical party—the IVaxh iivjton Gfcfonlo/c—outsiders must be lieve that It will boa side plknk in their next Presidential platform.’ Colombo* (Ua.) lluilij Time*. Now, if the Times will indicate tho article in the Chronicle which author ized it to make the above statement, wo shall be obliged to it. Otherwise, we shall bo compelled to say, that It lias manufactured a falsehood out of whole cloth. Having no hostility to foreigners, the “spirit of know-noth ingism” could not have emanated from our columns. Warltinyton Chronicle. Mr. Nordhoff, Bpccial correspond ent of tho Now York Ilerald, wrote a letter to J. M. Edmunds, Esq., Chair man of National Republican Execu tive Committee, lu which he said : “I have boon so unfortunate as to dis 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 be isa Jew by religion lie is thereby i unworthy of confluence. js this really Republican doctrine ? 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 and notorous over-dose of Govern ment [lap has given him an indiges tion, utiu ho is snapping at tho tieols of your friends. If you let him go on he will presently do the party a dam- j ago. We are to liuvo importantelec tious this Fall; aud next year there; will i>e a Presidential election. Have you forgotten this ? Is it riot an in sane folly to lot your offlciul organ under your very nose, fling a gratu itous insult In the faces of several hundred thousand German and Jew ish voters, and this in the name of the Republican party, andae presumably uu official declaration of the senti ments of the purty chiefs ? Hostility to foreigners was certain ly expressed by the National Repub lican in the epithet “Duteh-Jew,” by which the National Republican sought to stigmatise Mr. Nordhoff, and our remarks uro applicable to that paper and all of Its sympathizers with re gard to tho letter referred to. It was, perhaps, an unpardonable error to consider the Chronicle tho “chief or gan” of anything except (lie bitter malice of its editor to the Southern people. • • Then a matron made for kisses, iu the liveliest of dresses, and with eyes that shone more brightly than the diamonds that she wore, spoke in tones of lute-like sweetness, words of such exceeding fitness, phrases of such happy neatness, t hut we clapped our hands for more, as with grace she left the floor.— St. Imu'ih Tinier. She was fitted for a preacher in tho church of truthful Beecher, where the text is spoke In kisses, and the sermon is of blisses, that tho saintly, fervid teacher never, never knew be fore; where true inwardness susjiect ed, when finally detected, is paid a hundred thousand not to do so any more.—AT. I'. Sun. He was fitted fora teacher -he, the pure and saintly Beeoher but he saw tho woman’s tresses, and he sighed tor Such caresses as she never knew before; lo! lie saw her, and she con quered every scruple, for ho “hun kered” for ono kiss, and then for more. Only this and nothing more a hundred thousand for ids kisses, not a cent for liur caresses. That’s what’s the matter with Hannah. 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.” -N.
