Tho cauro is found in tho exporienca of the shoo factorios in Californis, which havo horotoforo employod Ohinoso cheap 1abor, but have now xeturned to tho employmont of white mon.

Soward thus: Dut tho memory of ifm who gulded éur courso through tho most appalling tempeat yot oxperionced 1n our anuals can scarcely fall to confront all futare appirants in tho samo honorable carcor, as an oxsmplo which every ona of them may imitats to hia advantage, ut fow can hope to bs 50 fortunnte as to excol, Tho scopo of this euloglum could Ladly be wider if Divine Providence hnd boen the “him " reforred to a8 having guided our course throngh tho most nppalling tompest yet oxperionced in our opnola. Did Mr. Bowmd guide our course through that sppalling tempost? Mr. Adams docs not show that ho did, —docs not,come anywhoro near showing it. Tho only considerablo ovent which ho points out as Diving boen wider tho ospecinl dirootion of Mr. foward was the swcronder of Mason and Blidoll to the British authoritiea aftor tho Tront affair. This affair foll under his special jurisdiction a8 ‘Rocrotary of Btate, and was undoubtedly well ad- vised and wollmannged. But it comos far short, ovon whon coupled with Mr. Soward's general managomont of foreign affairs, of justifying the pontiment_thot Mr. Soward guidod our course through the appalling tempeat—a sontimont that cannot bo acquiesced in without grave in-_ justico to other actors in that tromendous drama, Mr. Adams, spparontly auticipating this ob-’ joction, snys in anothor place : ‘Lot me not bé understood s desiring to’ say o word 1n a spirit of derogation from the memory of Abreham Lincoln, Mo proved himself boforo the world a pure, brave, honest man, faithful to his ‘arduous task, snd- Isylog down his lifo ot tho last us tho pennlty for lis country’s eafoty. At tho samo timo, it {s tho dutyof history in dealing with all human action to do strict Justico in dlscriminating Letween persons, and by no means to award to eno honors that clearly bolong to another. To gay that Mr. Lincoln was & pure, bravo, honost man, faithful to his arduous task,” loav- ing it to bo inforred that ho was an intellectual nonentity ss comparod with Br. Soward, ad, in- dood, ho protty roundly asserts in auother placo, proves that Mr. Adams, however familiar with Mr. Beward a8 & mon and o etatcsman, was totally unacquainted with Mr. Lincoln in the formor capaeity and very little in the Initer. Boro is tho contrast he draws botwoen them : Mr, Lincoln could not fall soon to percelvo tho fack {hat whntever cstimatohe might put on lis natural Jndgment, hio had to deal with a suporlor in nativo in- tellectual power, in oxtont of acquirement, in breadth of philosophical oxperience, and 1n tho forco of moral Qscipline, Ontho other liand, Mr, Seward could not havo been long biind to tho deficienclea of tho chicf fn thioao respocts, howover highly ho might valuo his in- togrity of purposo, hia shrowd, notural judgment, and Lis genorous and smiable dlsposition, ‘' That Mr, Soward was tho suporior of Mr. Lin- coln in extont of acquiroment and broadth of philosophieal exporionco must bo admitted ; but that ho was his suporior, or his equal, in nativo intolloctual powor, or in the forco of morel die- ciplino, wo firmly deny. Mr. Soward was bo- lioved to bo, along with Mr. Adams and many othier ablo and oxcellont moen, a compromiser at tho boginning of the socossion movement, and opposed to the employment of forco in order to provent sccession, Wo nffirm, asan historical fact, susceptible of proof, that every mombor of Mr. Lincoln's Cabi- net, excopt Montgomory Blair, was in favor of surrondoring Fort Sumter in the first instanco, and that overy membor of tho Cabinot, oxcopt Blair and Walles, was opposed to tho nttempt to sond provisions and supplies to Maj. Andorson,’ When it was dotormined to sond tho supplios, M. Soward spirited away (porbaps not design- odly) the steamor Powhatan, containing Capt. TFox's launches and the snilors to man thom, and sont hor off to Pensacola by means of an order which nevor wont through the Nuvy Doport- ment. On the 13th of April, 1861, if we recollect rightly, Mr. Boward addressed o dispatch to Mr, Adams, directing him {0 sssuro the Dritish Government that there would be wo resort to arms to matntain the Unlon, but that re-union wonld bo offectod penconbly,—thus conceding that tho Union was in fuct thon dissolved. At o 1ator period (in 1803), in anothor dispateh (por- haps not to Mr, Adams), ho claised tho robels and tho omancipationists togothor as oqually standing in the way of n rostoration of the ‘Union, showing thet ho was Limeolf opposod to tho emancipation policy, Was this a slip of the pou (Mr, Adama tells us that such elips aro to bo found in his voluminous diplomatic corrospond- ence), ordld it ot forth hia deliborato convietions at thotime? Our rocollection is very cloar that Mr. Boward was thon rogarded not only by the country, but by nemly all tho publio mon st Washington, as tho resolute foo of thoso who sought to give to tho Unon cause tho moral bottom and strangth of anti-slavery prinoiples’ nud purposen, Bo strong was this conviction that tho Republican Sonators form- ally roquostod Mr., Lincoln {o romove him from tho Cabinot as an obstaclo and a hiudranco to the Union causo. Wo advort to theso circumstancos not to do- tract from Mr. Boward's well-onrnod ronown, bub to onter our protost ngainst Mr. Adame’ broad assortion that it wos Nr, rathor- than Mr. Lincoln, who guided our courgo through tho appalling tompost. In our opinlon, nofthor of them guidod it wholly, but Mr. Soward gulded ib far less than Mr. Lin- coln, M. Lincoln wae himeolf .guided chiofly by publio opinion nud by ovents, sud in tho.Cab- frict hio was gulded lead by Mr. Howard than by Mr. Btenton. 4 POLITIOB AND THE FARMERS® MOVEMENT, In & journal callod’ tho' Grange, published nt _Washington, Tows, and ropresenting the organi- zations of farmora nudo.r tho samo namo, wo find tho following : " * Now, wo think tho crisia domonds that thio farmers and laborors forgot or jgnoro all party faoliugs or prej- udices, Thoy must go calmly and carneatly forward, their oyen ateadily fixed on thotr own interosts and tho intorests of {ho counlry, 'Thoy must do tho work thomsolves, nor trust 4t to tho hauda of protended frionds, ‘hey must seloct men from thelr own ranks—mon thoroughly identified with thoir ine torosts—men of back bomo, who . canuot- b bought with o rnlivond pasa or n penslon sgoncy—men who havo not Loretoforo committed thomsolves to ofther political party, norhedgod thom- solves by parly influences; menof stroug personal in- tegrity and honor, who will carry theso virtues with thom to publio statlon; men pledged to oternal and unflinching opposition to monopoly abuscs, oxtrava- gant appropriations of tho people's monoy, and to all salary stoala, Such men nre to be found, Let our Granges and Farmors' Olubs look thom up during tho nost two months, nominato them, and eloct ther, If that 1 #golng into politics,” mako tho most of it. Tho last sontonco of the oxtract rofors to & hue and cry that has beon raiged in cortnin quar- tors, warning the farmora of dangers nnd proba- blo dofeat if thoy pormit thomsclves to bo drawn into *politics.”” It is notablo that this tocsin of alarm bas boon sounded by the party pross, and that it Was suggested mainly by the decidod op- position to tho protettion swindlo which hns boon exprossed in ovory couvention and moeting. of farajors of any consoquence, Tho dangers which thronton tho intorosts of tho farmors by making their grievances the basis of political netion avo not half so numerous or formidablo aa thoso which threnten (the existing parties from tho' samo cnuso, Ionce theso tears! Tho farmers, it npponrs, hinve not beon deceived by tho plausi- o disintoreatednoss of the advice. * ‘Pho Grange furnishos o tolorably comploto ‘bisls for a political platform when it acvisos tho furmors to unito in * oternal and unflincliing op- | position to monopoly abuses, extravagant appro- pristions of tho poople's monay, and to all salry stoals.”” Whonevor they shall ‘so unite,. tho dangers will not be on their side, but on the side of tho political hacks of all kinds that attompt to deludo tho pooplo with bygono igeuos, and old politieal wnr-crics, Tho dangers will then threnton tho monopolists, whother they bo rail- roads to extort unressonable rates, or protectod manufacturers who livo and thrive upon tho sub- sidics which o high taiff takos out of tho pockots of an unwilling people. Defeat’ will thon attend, not thoe farmors’ movement, but tho porty that is rosponsiblo for *oxtravagant ap- proprictions of tho people's mioney and for all salary stesls.”” The agriculiural community of this country represents-ns largoan intorost an all tho othor purenits of the country joined togothor. ‘Whonever that community shall decide to cut looso from uselesa and antiquated parby associa- tions, nnd wrotohed old - political shells of ovary kind and breod, sud concontrato its enorgles aud resources upon tho single purpose of broaking down monopolics and rooting out corruptlon, thon it will bo timo for the men who make ex- travagant approprislions and perpetrate salary steals to stand from under. As the Grange otrtly says: “If that ls going into politics, mako the most of it.” Tho Republican party will probably make thom somo temporary and unimportant concos- plons on the tariff question, and endeavor to rally them with the old war-whoop: “Btand by tho party;e no divisions in tho faco of tho onomy.” The Democratic party will como out of its shell just long enough to tell tho farmors that it has been fighting monopolists and cor- ruptionists ever. since it has boon out of power. TEach will wami tho tillors of tho soil against tho decoits and tricks of tho ofher, and g0 far both will do right. If tho farmors will heed the warning of both, and do what the Grange advises them to do,—cnt off from tho old partios,selactnow mon identified with their own interests, and makovigorous war upon all mouopolics, subsidios, stenls, and imposi- tions,—tho farmora will havo nothing to foar from tho bugbearof * politics which protec- tionists and monopolista aro holding up boforo thom, When the farmors kuow their own power and concontrata on thoir own common‘intorests, “politics” will havo more to forr from thom than thoy from politics. OUR INDIAN POLIOY, Recont ovents on the Wostorn frontior havo shown vory conclusivoly that the much-vaunted policy of the Administration in its denlinge with lostilo Indians is a migorable failuro, and that it ia costing many livos and an cnormous amount of inonoy to carry out tho sentimental theorics of tho Vincont Colyors, besidos affording an op- portunity to & long rotinuo of spoculntors and thioving Indian-tradors to onrich thomselyos, by golling whisly and fire-arms to tho Indinus, and gwindling thom out of thelrannuitics, Tho easo of tho Modocs is exaclly in point, For o wholo yoar, the DYonco Commission- ora liave Deen having ‘big talks " "with fifly-throo murdering outlaws aud squandering presents upon thom, oud the rosult has beon tho murder of ouo of tho noblest officers in tho ormy and of one of the Peace Commissioners, ond an expensive war to drive thom out of the Lava-Bod, which may last, no ono knows how loug. ~Durlog this trifling and dilly-dallylng, the Modocs hnve fonnd opportunitics to send thoir runtiers nmong the tribea of Nortlorn Cali fornia and Southorn Orogon, urging thom on to war, #o that now u general outbrenk is fonred. A conflict rocontly took placo on tho Uppor Platte, in which tho Governmont troops wero routod by n band of Ohoyennes, and it is only fow dnys ngo that throo suryeyors wero killed by snothor baud of Cheyounes in the Indlen Torrl- tory, In the faco of such outragos ns those, the Prepklont is calling upon tho Govern- or of Toxas o pardon two Klowas, Hatanta and Blg Troo, who'woro sontenced to imprisonment for lite, throo yoors ago, for murder, Thoso two flends wore caught In tho act of murder, nnd woro proved to havo beon gullty of numorous murdorous outrages, and yot, upon the potition of the represontativos of tho Quaker policy, it Is proposed to twn thoso tigors looso agaln, with 10 ofher moourity than the declaration of the Beward, | Tend mon of tho tribo to which thoy bolong, that they aro sorry for thoir conduct, In tho caso of awhitoman who had committod hundreds of murdors, this plon would havono offect. Whoro- fit do theso two Indinn murderors, who havo boon tho torror of tho Loxau frontior for yoars, do- sorvo mich distinguishod considoration ? Tho folly of temporizing with Indians in arms {sshown by tho succows of Gen. Orook in his donlings with the Apachies, who have dofled the Govornment for twenty years, and who undoubt- adly hiavo boou the wornt and most envage of all ‘tho tribes, Gon. Crook was attonded by no Quokors or Ponco Commissionors. e had no “ big tnlls," nnd no prosonts to give. His only doalings with tho Apachos woro through tho medium of ball cartridge. Io gave thom mo rest by doy or night, pursued thom into tholr fostnosscs, 6ud smoto thom hip and . thigh, ond kept up this gort of fighting with such; dotormined vigor and pertinacity $hat at lnst the Apaches bogged for poace, acknowledged iliomsolves do- fontod, surrondered themsolves, nnd gnve up tholr nrmg, and ovon sent out their runners to bring in tho outsido Indinna. Tho Goneral thon sunounced that hie would place thom on rosorvas tions, treat them humanely, and make them no promiaoa which Lo would not fulfill. Gen. Crook hap hiad no diffloulty in subdaing and preifying ono of the most powerful and savage of tho Indian tribos in o vory fow months, How is it thot fifly-throo misorable Modoo outlaws and murdorers bave boon able to dofy the . United Statos Govornmont for over o yaar ? Tho answor is & plotu one, Gon, Grool, in his last bout with the savages, had no Quakors or Penco Commissioners to trip his hools, As long, 0a an Indian was in arms, thoro was no poaco fohim, Ho trontod them ag overy outlaw and murderor would bo troated who persisted in dofying tho authorition. 'The result is, that to-day the peo- plo of Arizons, where the mulitary arm of the. Govornment has beon folt, are -eafo from further outrages, -while tho pooplo of Northorn Oalifornis and Southern Orogon and the Indian Territory, whoro the Penco Com- miesionors are tomporizing with Indians in arms, and tradors and speculators aro swindling those not in arms, tho pooplo are constantly insccure. Merciloss punishment to overy hostile Indian, and humanity to those who submit to thd ordors of the Govornment, is tho only Indian policy which is of any avail. When onco thoy do sub- mit, then it istho dutyof tho Govornment to protect thom againat the rapacity of Indian rings. Undor such o polioy it is possiblo to have peace. 4 PROTECTION TESZED BY RESULTS. Advanco shcots of Consus Btatistics of Manu- facturos presont somo very instriotivo facts, which we advise advocates of tho protective theory to investigato with cara. It will cost them many woary hours of study to deviso ovon o plausiblo reply to tho argument which thoso ofilciol statistics furnish, From 1850 to 1860, it will bo remembered, wo wore lving under n low rovenue tarriff—tho lowost, in fact, which has been tosted in this country at any time sinco the first oxporimont in protection aftor tho war with England. Tho offocts of this long poriod of uninterruptoed low dutles upon our manufactures, snd tho laborers cemployed therein, aro tested by tha census of 1860. 1In 1861, an extrome protoctive tariff was adopt- od, which bas cpntinued in foreo to this day, with many modifications, indeed, tending. gon- orally to increase the obstacles to our intercourse in manufactured products betweon this and other countries, but without auy material chango of charactor. Tho offects of nino succossive yonrs of extremo protoction upon our manufactures and the Iaborers omployed thorein, aro tested by tho consus of 1870. In 1870, tho aggregato valie of products of monufactures was £4,282,625,802; the valuo of matorlals used was $2,488,201,952; and the not product, or addition to tho wealth of tho coun- try by manufacturos, was $1,744,89,940, In 1880, the nobt product was $854,266,684, 8o that tho incremso during tho do- cado of proteotion has been 106 por cont, But the' increase during the provious decado was from 408,082,703 in 1850, to $854,~ 260,684 in 1860, or 84 per cont. On the othor hand, the inereaso in capital invested in manu- factures during tho protective decade was 100.8 per cent, while the incrense in capital invested from 1850 to 1660 was 80 por cont. Deducting in oach cgso yalue of materinls and wages paid from tho nggregato value of products, wo find that tho net proceeds In 1870 were 45 per cont of tho eapital invested ; in 1800 thoy woro 47 per cont, and in 1860 only 40 9-10 per.cont, This sum, in each eano, roprosents much moro than the actual profita of capital, becouso from it must bo deducted all expenditura for taxes, ro- pairs, and renowals of machinery and buildings, and for goods loft on Land unsold.. Bit it may o presumed to bear the samo rolation to profits in chch cnso, oxcoept ns foxes have been incroased since 1860. Tho progress of manu- facturing industry In profit and stability during tho non-protective peried from 1850 to 1860 is thoroforo roprosentod by tho advance from 40.9 por cont to 47 por cent; whilo its progress back- ward under the period of duties falsely called protective is reprosonted by the decronse from 47 porcont to 45 por cont, less the increaso of’ taxation sinco 1860. & Theso changes will bo rondily seen in the followlng tablo: NET VALUE OF PRODUOT, + $463,082,704 854,250,684 Tncronso,, 84 por cont 1,744,303,040 Incronso..104 por cont ‘OATIrAL INVEATED, $ 633,246,351 1,000,855,715 Increase., 80 por cent 116,247,060 Increaso..109.8 per cont THOCEED (PRODUOT LESS MATERIALS AND ‘waazs), 1650, $327,027,329 3 por cent of caplial oty BT0017 c1b por cont of capilal NET 40.9 per cont 4T percont 1870.. 968,712,347 ; per cout of capital,. 45 por cout | It appoars, thon, that manufacturing indus- try, tosted Dby tho consus roturns, has not boon as - profitablo in the aggrogate to the capl- tol fnvested, ‘undor the oxtromo proteotive duties, ns it was uudor the low rovenue tariff of 1860, and that this branch of industry, which advanced in profit fully one-sixth under tholow dutios from 1850 to 1800, Las in that respoot not only failed to continuo its progross, but hoa sotually suffored a matorial loss under the pro- toctive dutios in forco from 1861 to 1870, But it may bo supposed that, while capital has failed to securo larger profits under tho system of protection, tho laborer employed in manufne- tures has boon grontly bonofited. This Is tho commonly-omployod pretoxs of tho advocrtos of tho protective system ; they do not desire largor profits for tho capitalist oxcept for tho ronson that Iabor may recolve higher wagos, In testing thio ndvanco of wagoa by tho consus roturns, wo must romembor that pricos of food and clothing, and tho cost of llving and supporting a family, bave largely inoroasod since 1800, so that, a8 ofclally-gatherod statistica have conolusively proved, €100 doos not go as far to supply the wants of the lnboror ng §100 id in 1860, With this fact In mind, let us oo how tho laboror in manufacturing industry has fard undor the pro- tootivo systom. L . In'1870, according to tho comgus roturns, thoro woro omployod fu manufacturcs 2,075,667 Dbands, and tho cutlre sum paid s wages for 1abor wag 8775,621,603. £070.07 annunlly for every person employed, Dut this is in curronoy ; during tho firat six months of 1870, prior to tho lakiug of Lho con- gug, the promium on gold averaged 162§ conts, and, for tho purpose of comparison with tho wagou of 1800, tho avorago paid must bo ro- ducod to gold valuos, numnoly, $328.24 per capita. Now, in 1860 thero woro paid $978,878,000 to 1,811,240 porsons omployed, an avorago of Tho {ucronto in lhe gold valuo of wages paid to hands cmployed in man- ufacturos los, thoreforo, boon only §84.060 $288,94 per capita. per capite, or loss than 12 por cont. With an ineronso of ouly 12 por cont. in wagos, while the cost of living hos incronsed nenrly G0 por cent in gold, tho Iaborer cannot bo said to have been benofited by tho protectivo poriod. Morsovor, without such on increnso In the cost of living, his wages in- creasod quito ns much undor the. low tarift from 1860.to 1860. For, in 1850, the average paid to hands omployed in’ manufacturos was $257.82, ond tho incronso from that timo to 1800 was, thorofore, n fraction over 12 por cont. Tho official figuros comparo as follows : noarly G0 por cent in his nocossary exponses. In tho light of theso facts, it ia easy to under- stand tho frequent and prolonged strikes of Inborers, and tho obutinate resistunce of om- ployors. Tho laborer kuow that he could not livo on his wages as woll ag ho used to do in 1800. Tho statistics provo (hat ho was right.. Ho bnd boen told by- tho dofendera of protoc- tion that laws making his clothing and othor artioles of nocessity moro costly wero intonded to protect tho Amorican manufacturers—to socure thom bottor profits, so that they could afford to pay larger wages to labor, Bolioving that tho manufncturer had ronlized thoe designed increnso of profits, tho laborers have ropeatodly strucl for tho increaso of wagos which would placo them also iu bottor poeition than thoy had in 1860, aud which had boon eo often promised as tho result of tho protectivo taxes, But tho manufacturer, counting Lis gains, Lis found that Lo hes not ronlized o lorger bub o smaller profit than ho did beforo tho' protective blunder be- gon, Taught to expect o larger, ho hns boen unwilling to yiold largor wages upon n roduced profit, nnd yet in many casos, and in the nvorage to the extont of nearly 12 por cont, has Doon forced to do so. Thus tho laborer, with many strikes and much lous of time, and good teoling and Individual hordships, bas socurod nearly the same increnso which the natural prog= ross of manufactures had givon him in the provious decade, but with an incroaso in tho cosb of living nearly four times a8 groat. Tho protectionist, as 18 his habit when cor- norod by facte, will xeply thint the connus roturus aro not absolutely nccurato, Thoy are at least moro reliablo, sons who have no any - theory, by differont associations of manufacturers. Er~ rors, in inquirios conducted by so-many inde- inierest pondont Marshals, may eafaly bo oxpoctod to noutralizo znd balance onch other, and, more- over, tho consus of 1870 hins boon at loast na ne- curato ns those of 1800 and 1850, with which we have compared results, Whatevor errors linve ocourrod aro much more likely to bo in favor of the manufacturers than sgainst thom, sinco tho statistics are based on their own rotums, and they aro mot likely “to report tho smount paid fn woges ns loss than ¢ roslly is. The difoulty iz that the facts, whon collected " by anybody oxcopt sasociations of interested porsons, always tend to prove tho esmo trutl—that protection bone- fits nobody, but is a stupendous blunder. Under its oporation, the manufacturor has renlized loss profit upon his capital, and tho Inborer less in- cronse of wages, than wero attained under the lowest revenuo tariff, while both bave been taxod, and all Industry embarrassod, by a mod- dlosomo and mistaken luterferenco with natural lawa, —— THE TRAFFIC IN YOUNG GIRLS. The outrago which hag been brought to the notico of tho Chicngo public as Laving occurred in tho MeLuughlin don, in tho West Division, is of o kind whick iufosts all largo cities, and which it seoras partioularly dificult to rorch by tholaw.

Itin fonred that authorizing personal suits for damngos on ac- count of soduction undor the ago of 21 yenra will bo productive of moro ovil than good, by holding out an inducoment to ylold to seduction in tho hopo of seouring a subaequont roward.
