Tho Jackson Mineis the best known of the Marquotto district, and bas & great commereial value. There are no mines of tho district that will better repay the visitor for a casusl examination, which he can easily make under the kind direction of Captain Morry. The operations are carried on principally by gonuine mining,—quarrying having be- come noxt to impossible 88 & great ef depth was attained. Thore are threo levels,—tho Jowest soveral hundred feet below tho surfaco at its highest point,—and about five miles of underground tunnels, or ¢ drifts™ as thoy are called in miner's technology- Orie of the longest of these passages is 1,200 feet. Thewholo mineis properly a series of mifics'connected by shafts, drifts, and adits, un- derlying many acres of country, having many openings, and intersected npon the surface, by the Marquette & Ontonagon Railrond, which thanders with its heavy trainamany times & day over_the honescombed earth beneath.

Ho s2id he came liere, not because the abilities of the State's Attorney wore distrusted, but as the attorney, neighbor and friend of Mr. Johnson, the heart- brokon father of » murdered boy as he believed. e proceeded to review:the avidence at great length, claiming that it had been clearly and un- mistakably shown that Johnson died a' violent dealh ; that ho was s young man of exemplary Dhabite, in whom his father, & carefal, cou- tions, pradent man, placed enficient confi- donce to entrust him -with o vast amount of monoy and sond him to Chidago upon sn_im- portant business mission; that the story of in- toxication waa unworthy of belief,”sa was also that of his intimate relations ‘with Mrs. Boyco; and that the finding of the bonds in the latter's possession was proof positive of her complicity of the death of Johnsou, All of the woman's subsequent acts had boon such as to stamp her vith guilt, and the conclugion conld not be avoid- ed that if thero was o womar on tho face of the carth capable of committing a crime of thismag- nitudo, that woman wea thie oner at the bar, The jury bad scen *her Billy” on the stan and if ho wasn't an epitome of perjury, couns didn't want a cent. His evidence waa manufac- tured for the occasion. During Br.

VAN BUREN, A, VanBuren lod off for the defence, expross- ing his belief that he should convinee tho jury that tho prosecntion was ferocions, malicions, and unrelenting,~hounded on by 'implaceble vongesnée aganst an innocont woman; poor and friendless, = Magdalen who had’ submitted to the embraces of thig yonng man, and perhaps of others, - He should admit, for {he time, that the young man w2s murdered, but he ghould ask the ‘jury if there was any evidence conmect- ing ‘hor with- the murder. It was mon- strous and” ‘absard to claim - that the defenco must show where the balance of the money was that Johnson's father gavo to him in Olean ; ‘it was for them to show that he had this money when he reached Chicago. In r:Enrd to the one missing bond, the law forbade the jury from inferriuy that the defendant stole it. They must fnfer that s had spent it because the oth: er side had failed to show that he had the bond. He waa Ioth to touch nmu the subject of tho moral charactar of the naed, who had been ~| turned the | of tho farm, for overy.cent added to freigit is so held up as s paragon of propricty, but he was mmpeflux to denounce the atterapt to use the moral perfections of the dead to place the living upon ilie sealfold. “Attontion was called to. tho conflicting teetimony of the ‘medical experts, es creating an insurmountablo doubt as to whether -the man was murdered at all. Counsel alludad to the mennerin which Professor Thever had t langh on Lim " by hur- ing the *cow-catchor" when asked abont ‘fatty degencration of the brain " and thereapon procoeded to show thet thore was-- such a thing as *fatty degeneration of tha brain,” and aleo that such a_dizonse had been Xknown to kill man in twolve Hours, The Court interrupted the counsel by -that hesupposed this was introducod a3 ment, and not 8s evidenice. Mr. Van Buren replied that it was for the urpose of argument only, and remarked to tha ury that though he should read a wirole library of anthorities showing that there was sach o thmF 28 fatty degeneration of tho brain, they. would etill be at liberty to bolieve Professor Thayer when ho eworo hak there was no such | thing. Counsel refuzed to beliove that Dr. Ben. | ). lor was any less profound'and learned in ofessian than Prosessor Thayer. 4 - The Court adjourned until 9 o'clock thia morn. ing, at which hour Francis Adams, Esq., will epenk in behalf of the prisoner. : PROTECTION. A National Evil, Disastrous to Labor and Agriculture, and an Obstacle to the Development of the West. JaxesviLL, Wis., Ja o the Editor of The Chicago Tribune: “Sre: Now that the bittor struggles of . the Presidential campaign are over, and the passions of the people hive subsided, and the country become settled for another four years, it woald seem to be & propitions time for considering other matters of vital interost to tho people, and of o mighty importance as to brook no celay or evasion. First and foremost among them is the unjust and dangerous system of logalized robbery, which, under the name of *Protec- tion fo American Industry,” is so rapidly impoverishing our farms; burdening our sgricultars; © prostrating our commerce ; building up “and enriching monopolies ; 1Tastening upon our widest industrics an incabus that retards and blights; aund oppreasing the mighty multitude of Iaborers, until, if -allowed to continuo, they will relspse info a condition little better than servitude. Upon a carefal con- sideration of our status, in genoral and detail,— the startling increase in power. and wealth of some industries, and the rapid " decay of others; tho aggrossiva activity of vast monopolies, that have combined liko magic, prosenting o defiant tront to both State and Federal authority, swal- lowing up millions of acres of the most fertile Innds belonging to the poople, and dictating" prices and profita to ~the produ- cors; while an appalling paralysis hds fallen upon the farming industry of the country, making it; cspecially in the West, scarcely re- munerativo,—wo seo much to startlo us, and to awaken fearful apprehensions with regard to the fature. The tendencies of to-dsy 170 certainly undemocratic and non-republican, and, with this bitter reality before us, we should be awake and active. The tempest of war so familiarized us with extravaganco, corruption, nad power, that wo have become deadened to their portending dangors, and, a8 is alwaya the caso after & dos- perate enconnter, 8 lethargy has fallen upon the ‘| nation, which, if not soon broken, will develop wide disaster. i i That great balance-wheel of tha nation; that sturdy, indestractible foree ; the element slowest to movo, but the most powerfal when in action, and the lenst influenced by political -aspirations and_preferment,—the American farmer and his colaborer,—may et hold within their grasp the destiny of the Républic; yet it is this ciass that is now sabjocted to the worst form cf extortion, to foster industries that Liavo bacomo 80 power- ful a8 to bo rapidly absorbing the main bulk of tho National wealth. It is high time that theso factsworo presented, in oll their startling reality, to the peoplo, and sgitated until reforms aro secured discriminating in favor of no clasa or industry. Paticulurly fntho Wost is this policy producing its most disastrous cf- focts, where the agriculturist finds, after dedu ing Lis high taxes and expenses for labor, & sur- plus barely suflicient to_sccure him the neces- Baries and comforts of life; lnxuries are entire- 1y out of the question: and inno caso’ hna real cstate a productive power suflicient to -psy the Iawest rate of interest upon the capital invested. Thile, on the other Land, those industrics, clamoring for protection in_order to_exist, are paying large dividends, and rolling up wealth with n cnormous rapacity. It is_but necossary to show’to the peoplo the' injustiée of this bar- ying argu- , 1873, barous policy, to inaugurato & _move- ment for ifs’ overthrow that will be irresistible. The utter fallacy of the assumption, that Protection, in fostering tho growth of manufactures, will increaso the profits of the farmer by securing a home-market for his products, is patent to every thinking man,~—for in the past, at present, and in the future, so long as wo have unoccupicd and undeveloped h.nfis, the prico of every bushel of grain is, and will continue to b, dgavumnq by quotations trom Liverpool or- London. This the farmer will from his farm to thosc great centres deducted. Yot the freights will be bigh or lowin proportion to the dutics on matcrials that enter into-the useand consumption of the various modes of transit. Railroads, to be ablo to pay tho high duties on- coal, iron, oe., which thoy Use 80 ox- tensively, must incréaso their {reights nzcording- Iy, and_obtain compeneation irom tho proeccds much deducted from their velue; cvery manu- facturer of sgricaliural implements, on sccount of the tariff on Lis mechinery and the-materiels Do uses, must incrense tho cost of the manufac- ‘tured article, to which is added tho exces- sive froights,—thus actaslly doubling tho duties, all of whith must be . paid by the farmer; ' ‘and - -the lsborer, £ meet the high dufieson clothing, wares, and othor needs, must have higher wages for his Iabor; in fact, avory jncreaso in the cost of labor occasioned by oxcessivo dutics, whethor in the workehop, manufactory, railrosd, or farm, is drawn from the now overburdoned industry of agriculture, It is utter folly to protend that they aro paid by tho capital and wealth of the coun< try. Itisa falso sssumption. The farmer alone pays this onormous taxation, and without a ro- ciprocal advantago, while all other intorests poagess the power of restoring every dollar ad- vancod,—tho importer, by adding it to the prico of bia ‘morchendiso, togsther with 8 pércantaga for tho money advanced; the merchant; by in- croasing his profits; the practitioner, by adding to the value 0f his services; and so o, to every branch, profession, and -industry, except the farmer, who; in all ita ramificstions throughout tho businoss world, is compelled to disgorgo the hard-earned fraits of his laborinto the capacious maw of Protection. Not only does he paythe froight upon his awn productions, but also npon tho products of the manufactory. In fagf, so completely is i hommed in by the toils of this ‘monster, that ho cannot feed hia stock, gathor his crops, or improve his farm, without paying tribute to it, and all withont relief. - Protection i3 an incumbrance upon every. farm,—s mortgage Leld by the - wealth,of the country "upon the farms and. fertile Jands belonging to the-laboring masies:- Its tondency is to “make tho rich richer and tho, poor poorer,"'—tazing tho West for the bencft of the East,—until we find the normal financial condition undor its eway to be, a plethora of ‘money and low rates of intorest in tho East, and a scarcity and hi‘}h rates in the West. Wo aak that the Great West bd aroused to n sensc of thess living facts, for she is tho great taz- payer to this infamous syetem, and in yearly filling the coffers of the already oo rich manufscturers of the -Esst.” It is rapidly impovorishing our rich prairies, and,. if not overthrown by tho virtue of tha paoplo, will, sooner or later, givo & blow to agricalture, and precipitate a_crisis too extensive and disas~ trous to bo regarded indifferently. A grea fal- Iacy obtains among many bf our public men, &nd a Iarge proportion of tho mesges, Which bos beon, and is, taken advantage of by ‘the advocates of the ““ American Bystem,” go called, to perpetuate its existonce, and, extend snd increaso its rami. fied evils,and that is, that money, or gold, consti- | tutes the'wealth of o Nation, and that our policy shonld be to hold it, by all possille means, within _our own borders. Yet it would seem that the experienco of ths past, Tecaive, with the cost of fraight and handling [ lyzing the em on' the othnr; and it loes ‘scem incomprehensible that it.'shonld bé reserved for the American' Republic t> establish,’ in fnll vigor, ono of thd most barbaxous-policie’| of- tho past,—an invention of- the« worst and most intolersnt Court that ever ryled Franco, which, after having imvoverished ‘the people, and_driven_from _the. Empire.its ba st workmoo a0 artisans, attempted to reviwes hor desd manafactories by this, then unexauipled, expe- diont, but which, at oven that early day, brought down upon it tho indignatitn of " thio Ia-"| boring classcs, . It stands, -to-day, condemned: |_by the whole iistory of civilization, and by the Tocord of its effects in our -land, to- say nothing, of the sad spectacle'of 96 per- cent: of 'oir” pro- *ductions taxed to support only, 4 pir cent, and -873¢ per cent 6f all tha laboring men and woman of tho'country honvily taxed for the special ben- efit of the onfy remaining 214 per cent. Another claim of the Protectionists isgoth.«_t this .policy .induros increased wages to labor, 28 shown by the Ligher rates obtsining in this country .com- pared with Europe, It would b strarga, indced, " ware not m\&:s higher here, with free’ homes and froo Iands to all of them, and with ité mill- ions of squarc miles of -unoccupied lands await- ing cultivation. Yet facts and a little reflection will: shovs, taking " into consideration ~the pur- chasing power of money, that this policy is ou- siantly, decreasing, 'ins of enhancing, the ‘wages ‘of the laborer; for, were it not for Pro-- tection, the purchasing power'of & dollar - for | clothing, honechold wares - and utensils, &c., would be increzaed 50 per cent, whils it - would 1ift from sgriculture the heavy burden under which, it is now _struggling, making, it moro remunerative, aud, by stimalating- & faller development ' of . its. _resources, incresse'. tho demand for Ishor, besidées induc- ing hundreds of thousands to secure farms. for themselves,—thus creating an unlimited and perpetnal demand for mare labor. It isnot tho amount of money paid to'labor that improves its condition,. but purchasing power of the money paid. 'If o repeal of the high duties now oxisting wonld increaso the valuo of a dollar 50 por cent, then 50 per cont loss wages than at_ _present would be preferablo, as thero would be" .an actual saving of G0 per cent in interest. - Revonue-Reform—which means a rapeal of all dnties imposed for Protection—is of parsmonnt importance to the pooplo of_the West, who feel, in the Kecnest seues, tho oppression nnd accomu- Iating ovils of tho existing polioy.” ‘Tt is high timo stops wore taken for, roform, to ensble agricultural intorest~tho- bulwark of the Em- Fu—o—u? securo its just rizhts and equal privi- eges with other industries. No clasa of people rushod ta tho, rescus of the Nation's life with ‘more heroic fortitude, or more patriotically Iaid down their lives in her defenco, or poured out their tressuro more uncomplainingly, than the agricultoral masses of tho Great West; and, with the same fidelity and patriotic davotis have they divided -the small - profits of their "hard lsbor towards -lignidating the heavy indebtedness. of the Nation, while s band of insatiate vultures, taking advantage of the necessity of the hour, and .under the pre-/ tonce of benefiting those whom ' they despoil, have swooped down upon themto gobble up their Temainitg profits, For some unaccountable ros- son, onr pablic men and political losdars aro criminally indifforent to these demands ; and it ‘behooves the farmer, the laboring man, and the grezt mass of the pooplo, Who_constituto tho ac- tive West, to sot in motion tho rejuisite forces that will destroy theso political fraunds, which are growing stronger with “every revolv- ing. year..
