Tho sddress of tho Govornor-General commends the report of tho Commissioners ap- pointed to investigato tho Cansdlan Pacific Railroad scandal, and urges upon Pasliament the importanco of providing immediato mosna for rosumption of work on that road. Tho ostablishment of & Dominion Board of Agricul- turoe is slso strongly urged. In tbe samo con- nection, it is intimated thot the roport of the Commissionora will exculpato the Govornment from all the chargos in the Huatington iadiot- ment, The turbulent political elements in this ity ro rapidiy cloaring themselvos, and after to-day been. The Left Centra of tho Assembly has voted solidly for s Consorvative Ropublic, and govoral doubtful membors in other di- vislous havoe alseo doclared in favor of the TRepublic. Avotbor strong popular movoment has commenced for tho Re- public, in an offort to obtain o ploblscitum pro- tosting againat the reatoration of tho Monarchy without consulting the wishes of thopeopla. The most important intelligence from Spain is tho announcemont that tho Madrid Govornment has sont o strong protest to the French Government agaiust the notion of sonto of the Fronch war- vougels which recently conveyed direct nssistanco and encoursgemant to the Cartagona insurgonts. Nows comes also of un important Carlist victory near Puigeordn, an ovent which has boon very rare of late. ‘Tho King of Saxeny ia roportod in adying condition. A skelch of his life will bo found elsewhere, Tho morning session of tho second day of the Parmers' Convontion was Inrgoly occupled with o carefully-prepared address on railroads and transportation, by Mr. Flagg, of Madison, Wis., at the conctusion of which tho Committee on Resolutions made its report, which sub- stantially cmbraces tho following recom- mondations: 1. That Congress pnss o maximum freight and passenger tari® be- tweon States, and that Logislatures rogulato rates within States, 2, That Congress open watar-routos from tho Mississippl Rivor to the seaboard, 8. That tho peoplo be urged to sup~ port home-manufactures, 4. That the prospect of the carly complotion of the doublo-track froight road from Now York to Omaha ia o matter of congratulstion, 5.

'The second brought out & long discnssion, during which numerous sub- stitutes and changes were made and tablod, the fual rosult being tho adop- tion of tho following substitute: “We domand the copstruction of railroads and the impravement of wator communications bo- tweon the interior and seaboard, the same to be owned aud operated by the Goneral Gov- ornmont for the purpose of affording thioro will bo but two parties in the fleld arrayed agalnst onch other on distinet issucs. Tho Com- mitteo of Soventy met yeaterday and adoptod the ticket nominatod at tho Citizens' meoting a fow daya since, with tho oxooption of the Commis- sfonors from the North and West Divisions. The Committeo alyo filled out tho placo of City At~ tornoy, made vacant on the Oltizons' ticket by the rosignation of Mr, Stiles, with the nomiuatlon of Thomns J. Turnor. Tho Hesing Convontion moots to-day, and, itis understood, will nomi. nato Mr. Colvin, This having beon dono, the 18suo bofore the poople will bo a clear ono, and the campnign will commonco with directness and vigor. The roports of oparations on Wall stroat pro- sent nothing specially nesw, the markots romain~ Ing without fmportant chavge. Tho principal ' ovent of tho day was tho meeting of bank Preaidonts, held ‘to considor ths reported proposition of the President for tho 1oliof of »Iho present stringency, Tho situation 88 summed.up in brief shows that tho President wrata a lottor agreoing to draw on tho logal- tonder resorve for Lhe bonofit of the Now Eng- Jand monufacturers, if necessary, but held the proposition to buy exchange for furthor copsideration, The Cloaring-ITouse Aesoclation rogards the whola matter 88 o farce. Incidontal to the fiunuciel news ia the announcement that tho croditors of Clows, Habicht & Co., Loudon, hnve permitted the firm to go into vorustary liquidation; and that things are looking brighter among the Now England manufacturors. ——e A vacaney in tho Collootor of Customs' office at Cedar Koys, Florida, recently ocourred, and tho Civil-Sorvico Bosrd recommended that tue Deputy, Mr. Woolfort, be appointed. The two Bonators and Ropresentative in Congrosa Irom Florida objocted on the ground that Wool- fort had nover taken an active part In politics, and rccommended one Dlumenthal, who was & politician, Tho President sot asido the rocom- mendation of tho Civil-Bervice Board, and ap- pointed the politician. This act {a tho more marked beonuso the vacaney was causod by tho nooeasnry removal of & man who had boen ap- poiutod bocauso of his party usofulnoss on the rocommendation of tho Congressional delegas tion, and who turned out to have boon an ine dietod smugeler, an ox-Ku-Klux, aud n nogro- whipper, Thia s the way Civil-Sorvico Reform cheap and ample transportation, and to pro- tect the people from the exactiona ot manopo- Wos.,” Tho third, fitth, sixth, and sovouth roso- ludons wore unanimously adopted, but tho fourth was loss. Resolutions woro aleo adoptod urging the importanco of speedy legislation on the transportation question, and recommending Farmors' Associations to furnish the Railroad snd Warehonse Commigsion with information on which to prosecuto saits. At the evoning session, tho ouly busincss of any gonoral importance was . the pas- #ago of two rosolutions, onoadviging the farm- ors to kold back their live-stock products until they could get & fair prico,—&5 per hundred on hogs boing considersd o fair prico ; the other recommending other Statos to improvo upon‘tho Railroad law of this &tato, after which the Con- voution adjourned sine die, The principal topic of intercst in the third dsy's session of tho National Board of Trade was tho discussion of the roport of the Commit- too on ‘Crausportation, which includes the fol- lowing propositions: 1, That the trans- portation quostion is ono of national impor- tance, 2. That freight railroads from tho interlor to tho sonboard should beo chartored by the General Govornment. 8. That Congroens should proveut discrimiuations by any Btato agninst commorco botween Statos passing through it, and that Biato Logislatures whould protect commerce within Statos, 4, Tho improvomoent of water-routcs a8 & por- manent cheok on railrosd monopolies. 5, Tho croation of & National Board of Com- migsionors of Intornal Improvements, Col. Grosvonor supported thoe propositions, and Mr. Baker, of 8t. Louls, camo to the defonso of {lio railroads, and offered a substitutoe for tho second and third resolutions, providing for the construe- tion of & double-track railroad for froight alono from New York to St. Louis, with a branch to Chicago, and urging Congress to grant o charter to any parties who will construct such s road. This substitute, howaver, waa rulod out. Hoveral other delogatos slternatoly advocated and opposed the roport until noon, whon tho Board adjourncd until ovoning, spending the af- ternoon meantimo in riding about tho city, At the evoniug eossion, tho Committee on Fi- nonco aud Danking made ile roport rola~ tivo to tho rosumption of specio pay- ments and tho ourrency, which was made the progrosses., — Tho Chicago produce marlkets wore moro lvely yestorday, and generally firm, excopt in pro- vislons, Mosa pork wan more active, and 10@200 por brl lower. at £13,00 for old, and $12.00 for special oxder for thia afterncon, The dlsous- slon on tho transportution queation Jwas thon resumed, in which tho Canadian delogation tles wonld be given for cheap freights and quick communications, Sovoral othor dele- gotos spolte to tha question, whon a now di- vorgenco was glvon to it by n substitute offered by Mr. §Holton, rocognizing the Importance of water-routes, but leaving the authorization and conduct of ralironds to tho 8tates. Londing tho discussion of this subsliluto, tho Board adjourncd.

Bubsequently, however, Buaxony entored tho North Gor- man Confodoration, and her troops took port in tho Fronco-German war.

MR, HESING'S PECUNIARY INTEREST IN THE ELECTION, In 1863, tho Goneral Assombly passed s Iaw providing that the City of Chicago *‘may, in ils discretion, provide for the publication of ordi- nouces, proceedings, otc., in some newspaper printed in the German language.” In 1806, whon Mr. Hosing firat becamo influ- entinl in pohtics, tho law wes changed 8o ns to provido that tho city ordinances, ote., ‘‘may bo published in tho Gorman nowspeper having the largest daily civculation in tho city.” That lim- 1ted the Couuncil to the Staats-Zeitung. In 1867, when Mr. Hesing was still moro in~ fluential in politics, this law was again amended 0 na to take away all discrotion from the Coun- cil, and to increaso the amount of matter to Lo published in tho German language. Tho sct says: *Tho proceedings, notices, and or- dinanceu of said city and the departments thereof shall bo published in tho newspapor printed in the German language having the largest daily circulation,” and to thelaw wos added this curious provisior: : Provided that in no judicial or other proceeding shall the publication in such Gorman newspaper be called m question, oither ns to tho fact of publication orfo the correctnoss theroof.” Tho law nleo provided that the samo price should be paid for the publication in Ger- man 08 in English, Thus the city was required to publish in Mr. Hosing's paper, and yot neithor tho fact nor tho correctuess of publication way to bo of any consequesnco. Tho Staats-Zeilung availed itself of tho pro- vigo. It would publish asscesmont noticos that required to be published six timos provious to o cortain date from one to throe days beforo tho dato and the balauco aftor that date, so that in fact less than the six days’ provious notico was givon in the German papor. This occwrred al- most, if not evory, wools. Ia not all money paid under such o law & gra- tuity from tho tax-payors to tho Staals-Zeitung? £t will be romerbered thatin 1869 tho Common Council rebelled against this Inw, and undertook to give this German printing to avothor German nowspapor, the Volks-Zeitung. Mr. Ticsing ap- plied to tho Bupromo Court for & mandamus to compol the Council to award tho printing to his nowspaper. Tho Buprome Court rofused the wandamus, but a Judgo of tho Cirenit Court ordoron sho Council Lo award the printing tu tho Slaats-Zeitung, Tne bills ot the Slaals-Zeitung for printing during the two years onding Oct. 1, 1873, under this outrageous luv, smounted to over §80,000, Tiftoon thousand dollars a yoar is tho direct peouniary intorest thot Mr, Hesing Las in tho rosult of tho city election. Uundor this law, this Slaats-Zeitung nowspaper has roceived over 85,000 0¢ tho tax-payers’ monoy. Ts Mr, Hosing nfraid that his gratoity may bo intorfored with if his ticket is not elocted ? 1Is it not vory probablo that it Mr, osing censes to bo influential " 11 politics, some Alderman may inquire whother or not, under the new Consti- tution, the Goneral Assombly can imposo s dobt on o munieipal incorporation without its con- gent ? Probably the City Council might ask the Goneral Assembly to repeal this obnoxiouslaw. We subjoin a tablo showing tho amounts paid out of the City Propsury for printing Council procoedingd, ordinances, and gonoral noticos in the Staafs-Zeitung, whore thoy are of uo legal importance whon pnblished : Billa against Oity of Cuicago on * General Account " (. 0., for publishing Council proccodings, and Ordi- ances, and Generud uotlees)—nol fustudin any advor- Using fur Hoara of Publio Works, Board of Educution, Zioard of Potice, lloard of Healtl ote,, excenting {roul tiie jire of October, 1871, sinco whicl dato the smounta Shisrgod thouo savoral Hoords fefucluded f the Dgurea elow 3 a (Tuken from Complrofler's nunual voports, excent Quring the pear of the fire, which 18 esttmates) ¢ April 1, 1805, to April 1, 1800, Qeneral Ac~ ‘to""April" 1, 1657, Genoral Ac- .. 5,522,51 ral'Acs 0,089,383 connt..uouinn Aprll 1, 1606, Countseve svis April 1, 1807, to Al count, April lt i, coun!

Tho Law-and-Ordor parly has o protty efiiclont ward organization, and ought to seo to it that in each of tho twonty warda thero Is ong rospeotable cit~ izan of ability and integrity nominated for the Board of Aldermon. By n proper effort in this way, and undor an assuranco of support at the polls, respectable men con - bo Induced to tako tho somewhat thankless offico now 80 largoly monopolized by thoso who ought nover to have beon clooted. Horotofore, popular offorts to socure good city governmente have beon oxhausied in tho nomi- nation of candldates for goneral offices, and tho election of Aldormon has boen left to chance. Now I8 the timo to corract this by securing in ovory ward a man who will sorve honestly and officiently, snd not for what ho can mako out of tho place, Thoro i not & ward in tho ety whore such A man cannot bo found. It s possible to put tho wholo charsoter of the Council boyond doubt or question ns to integrity for éwo yoars to como, It ia cssonttal, howover, that the votors of Chicago take an interest in thia matter, at lonst to tho oxtent of goingto tho polls to de- fent improper candidates, — e HELP FOR MEMPHIS. The only compensation great calamitios bring {a now avidenco of human love and charity. For two yoars aud more, fire, flood, and pestilence have stalked about thoe easth, doaling death and disnstor in nearly overy quarter of tho globe. Whonever and jn whatovor form tho destroyer has made his appearance, ho has contemptuously ovorriden the obstaclos that scionce has thrown In his way, and succumbed at Jast only to the sublime and untiring efforts of charity, the grenateat of all vir- tues, In all the inventions of the enemy, ho has nover assumed 6o hidcous a micn a8 in the sconrgo which has visited Shroveport and Mom- phis. It would seom to bo his Iast and greatost offort to weary mankind of well-doing, and ho must bo abashod there as ho has beon in flame, famino, flood, tornado, and plaguc elsewhere. Ono would say that the glorlous martyrdom of & singlo Mattio Stephonson would drivo him off with henging bead. And yot he goos not, Thoe heroica of former days must yiold tho palm to the aimplo devotion and glorious courago that prompt & young girl to plungo hoadlong into o loatheome pestilonco, which makes strong mon tromble and appels tho devotion of tho trucst womanhood. This is what Mattio Stophenson, an obscure country- girl of Iliuols, did. 8ho had no special call to Memphis. There wasno husband, nor brother, nor sweetheart there to whom sho was attracted Ly sollsh or porsonl affections. 8ho left homo with only tho garmonts she worc—porhaps sho thought ehe woull nover mood any more—and without the kuowledgo or consent of her rolatives; sho paid hor own passago to Memphis ; she made no os- tentatious proffer of her sorvices ; hor only am- ‘Dbition was to sorve the sick and sufforing of tho stricken city; eha visited scones which terrifted tho strong hearts of thoso who had had time to ‘become used to the plaguo ; sho accepted no pay for her duty; and, when the horrid diseaso Inid its vielous hands upon her, she died with the singlo regrot that her usefulncss had boon cut short. er first sorvics was the caro of & young wife, with whom tho discase kod precipitated prematuro child-birth. Though such & girl as Mattio Stophenson must have hind the strongest instincts of matornal sympathy and a full ap- preciation of tho double horror of her patient's condition, sho alona was brave enough, among all the womon there, to faco tho situation. No wonder tho City of Memphis forgot tho plague n moment to admiro heroism like hers, No won- dor tho Howard Associntion, and the city ofiicials and tho clorgy, and the nurses, stole away from their duties & brief half-hour to do her reverenco. Tho poor girl i8 described to have been—she must have boon—n shy and gontlo cresture, unconscious of tho good she was doing. Ilers was a martyrdom that tho world eannot nfford to forget; and when, horoafter, tho names of TFloronce Nightingalo, Graco Darling, and tho others are rocalled, that of Mattio Btophonson should head the list, ro- splendont with a glory that is almost suporhu- man, Mattio Stophonson has nob beon alono in the sublimo dovotion called out by the foarful scourge which has vigited tho Southern cities, Thero was a beautiful and accomplished girl of DPhiladolphis, named Agnos Ar- nold, who. hasiened to BShroveport ot the first general call upon humanity. Bho wns the daughtor of a decoasod United Btatoa Navy officor, and the adopted daughter of a citizen of Philadelphin, whose nama she boro. She had & good horo and Lind friends, and was botrothod, Tho pleasures of youth, the attach- mont of friendship, the flrat love of a fresh heart, and all the solfish sentiments of associn- tion and affection wera oxercised in hor caso to Lkeop hor at home. 8ho broke with all theso, and burried away to duty and to death. Her aflanced husband could: not slay Lehind, To followed hor in & fow daye, and, soon after his arnval at Bhrovoport, wag strickon down and died. Agnos Arnold did nob finch ovon at this hard blow, She still went about doing good as & volunteor nureo, till ono night, complotoly overcomo with physieal fatiguo In watching at the bedsido of a sick child, sho could hotd her hoad up no longer, fell down a steirway, fractured a thigh, snd died In great agony, Tho '* Angol Agnes,” ag they call bhor in Philadelphia, and her intonded husband, aro now on thoir way homo in coffins, Mattio Stophengon in Memphls, and Agnes Arnold in Bhrovopott, have surely not been alone in their martyrdom, Thero must be scoros of unwritton Leroes and horolnes who have givon up all the comforts of homo ond all the affoctions dears ost to the human loart to court the most horrible forms of doath for charity’s sake, If it wero not 80, Memplis would ba to-day but ono lugo peat-houso, tho disgrace and torror of & clvilizod country, Wo bave a motive in drawing spoclal at- tontion to suoh herotsm other than that of col- obrating the virtuos that are loft to poor human- ity. It thore are mon and women who dara to sacrifico homes, frionds, lovo, aud life to tho reliof of such sufforing as a noxious plaguo brings with it, which of us can afford to refuso money to pay thelr oxpenucs, to care for tho af~ flicted, to buy broad for the starving, to furnish mediolne for the alok, to clothe the orphany, and to bury tho dead ?

Lec County givos Valo (Anti-Monopoly) 665 majority for Governor and elects o Republi- can Senstor and two Republicans and o Domo- crat Ttopresentativo In the Logislature, How- ard County gives Carpontor (Ropublican) 1,200 majority for Governor, and elects an Anti- Monopoly Democral to tho Logislature by 225, Dubuque gives Valo 1,418 for Governor, and a Topublican Sonator 409, Jackson County glves Valo 764, and & Republican Ropresentative 134, Linn County gives Carpeuter 543, and elacts an Auti-Monopoly Domocrat to tho Houso, In Winneshelk County protty much ol the votes (2,00) aro snid to have boen for Gov. Carpenter, and yot the Legislntive tickets required o closo ofticial canvns, olecting a Re- publican Sountor and two Antl-Monopoly Rep- rogontatives, These are only o few specimens. Nor do the Btato tickets run at all evonly in tho sovoral counties, there being already noted varia- tions of several hundroed votes in some of thom, and a chango of majoritics, botweon candrdates for Governor, Lieutenant-Governor, Supremo Judgo, aud Superintondent of Publio Instruc- tion, Itis truo that Carpontor's own County of Webstor gives 14 majority for Vale, and 128 for Valo's Licutenant-Governor; and if it bo true (o8 rumored) that Valo's own County of Van Buren gives o small majority for Carpentor, but olocts Vale's local ticket by 700 to 1,000, then, in- deod, aro the uncortaintios and the comities of the olection woll mixed. It is not improbablo that tho indignant electors in Clinton County who voted Valo's ticlket ouliro becauso they could not seratch tho other gave, in their locality, tho largest proportion of uaacratehed ballota to bo found in tho whole State. Itisoutof such dobris ag this that the Republican managors ab Doa Moines and Codar Rapids have beon, for a whole week, trying to figuro majorities on Gov- ernor and Logisinture. With tho best they ean do, and allowng all thoy claim, the Iouso is o tie (§0), or, perchiance, only one or two majority Anti-Monopoly, and Carpontor’s majority may bo 20,000, or may not be moro than 5,000. The Inst one of the rural ballot-boxes, in any counnty, has been g spt as not to upsot tho wholo caleulation, and sisteen countios aro as yob wholly unhenard from, on the Govornor voto. Tho Governor vote wns everywhere ostcomed of no importance, and was theroforo counted lnst, and, in a majority of casos, not roturnod for publication with the rest. T'ho people seom to have looked on the 60,000 Grant majority as on abstract torror, but thoy Lkuew thoy could smash tho local majorities, and they did it overy timo. < ® ——re—s THE SALARY-GRAB AND THE NEXT CON- GRESS, Wo understand that some forty or fifly mom- bors of the noxt Congress will go to Washington this wintor with as many different bills in their ppockots for a ropeal of that portion of tho salary Dbisl of Inst session which increased the Congres- slonal pay and provided for the back-pay. Inother words, there sppears to bo & scramble amoug & large portion of tho politicians for priority in appeasing the wrath of an outraged people without removivg the chief scandal and origl- nal design of the salary-grab, which was to double tho salory of the President. Buck-pay was morely thrown to tho retiring members, ag Congrossman Willard shows, to socuro their co- operation. Tboy ean't bo damaged any further. ‘Tho purposo of tho forty or fifty Congressmon who carry in their packeta the forty or fifty plans for modifying thg salury-stoal is not very exalted atthe best; but, oven such as it is, It s to Do hoped that they will not get into such hopoless confusion in their rush for tho first honors that they will upset each other, and prevent the re- peal altogethier, Thoro is shortly to bo a cavcus of the Republican sido of Congress. Itisre- ported that Gen. Butlor will take ground In favor of oxcluding all tho Credit-Mobilier Con- grossmen from prowinent places in the organi« zatlon of the Houso and its committocs. In that case, it 8 more than Ilikely that some Credit-Mobiller Congressman will rotort wilh tho proposal to ox- oxcludo all tho salary-grablers. As theso two classos composo & large majority of the Ropubll- can caucus, it will probably get Into an Intermin- able wrangle of eriminations and recriminations, In this cnsoe, it is to bo feared that the forty or fitty billa now in tho pockots of the forty or fifty ambitious reformors will bo forgotton. Thero s only ono way In which the noxt Con- grosa can dispoyo of the salary question to the sntisfaction of thelr conntituonts, and this is to ropeal tho whole law, {ucluding the iucreaso of. tho President’s salary, If tho objootion bomado that it is unconstitutional to diminish the Presi- dent'ssalary *during the period for which ho was cloctod,” wo auswor that it was unlawful to in- crouso the Prosident’s exlary * duriug the period Cougross fnoronsed . tho mnlary uniawfully, a8 we maiutaly, but thero fs now no ono to tost {hio quoation, .If tho Sorty-third Congrona shsll ropoal tho aot, tho Presidont will apply to tho Courts to ascortaln whotlier such roponl Is lawful or mot. If the Courts decldo, that it was constitutionnl to doublo tho Preal- dent's pny during tho period for which he lad Loen olectod (Gun, Grant having beon clected for both bis first and socond terms beforo tho inorenso), but unconstitutional to reduce it dur- ing tho same period to what it was Leforo tho incrense, thon, and not till then, will he bo entitlod in tho cstlmation of the peoplo to draw bis $100,000 ndditional compounsation. It 18 probable that Mr. Rodorick R, Butler, of Ten- nosgoo, will mnko a pathetio apposl to leave tho Prosident’s salary where it Is, on tho ground that ho will bo reduced to beggary if ho hos only $26,000 o yonr. Wo havo a notlon, how- ovor, that this appeal to tho sonlimont of hu- menity will not bo so potent in dotorring tho smbitlous Congressional roformors from ro- duoing his pay ss the dangor of socing their frionds romoved from office. Gon, Grant holda tho whip, and has beon known to use it freely in cagos of this kind, Honco tho dwsinclination tomeddle with the Prosidontisl pay, oxcept in tho way of a rieo. Wo givo warning that no half-way tinkering of tho enlury-steal will entisfy tho peopla. Any gon- tlemen who expeot to mako personal capital outof propositions for compromise will meet with dis- astrous failure, Tho nction on the salary-giab will bo tho binge on which the other legislation of tho sossion will turn, If Congross shall at tho outsot make o cloan eweep of the most glar- lng iniquity of the last seceston, It will bo an ovidenco that public opinlon has not yet lost its power in tho land. It will bo no- tico to jobbing Congrassmen and lobby thieves that thoy will got themeolves into troublo if thoy attompt to put thoir huuds in tho Treasury in the presont condition of the public mind, But 1t tho Forty-third Congreas shall temporize with the ealary question, look out! It will bo an an- nouacement to tho lobby that thoy are propared todofy publio opinion, Thon Northern Pa- cifio will march its column boldly to the front, and probubly carry tho citadol by storm. Thero Isno surplus monoy in the Trossury, but the Northorn Pacific bankrupts will bo eatisfled with Govornmont bonds., After them will come tho formidabloe array of bankers, headed by Honry Clows, who hold Southern Stato bonds and want the Government to gusranteo thom, and close Lohind will como Commodore Vanderbilt, wanting the Govornment to buy out a tolograph company. They will besupported by tho whole gang of carpet-baggers. Thon tho cotton claim, the Agrleultural Collego swindle, tho Jomes River Canal, and o Lost of lossor schomes for subaidy will knock at tho door and clamor for money. Tho noxt Congress will bo boot with tomptations, ond it will probably stand or fall according to it action in regard to the salary-gral AMERICAN SHIPBUILDING, On Wednesday, the National Board of Trado with groat unanimity rejocted all tho proposed recommendations upon the subject of Govern- ment aid to shipbuilders, Tho three proposi- tions wora: 1. A bounty or subsidy of a fixed sum por ton for each ship built in tho United States, 2. That all vossels bo allowed & draw- back on ol foreign products nceded for thelr outfits. 8, Tho admission of foraign-built ships to American rogistry. These three propositions Havo beon boforo tho country for soveral years, The first and third bave boon considered as somowhat antagonistio, while the second has beon gonerally conceded as just. Tho third proposition, though seemingly in the intercst of froe trado, takon by itself would bo unfair. Bo long as ovorything ontering into tho construc- tion of a ship or steamer is taxed, it would baun- just to compel tho builder to puy taxos on his raw material, and at tho eamo timo admit the foreign ship freo of duty, Novertheless, it is difficult to understand why a vessel built in a foreign land, but owned by American citizens, may not bo allowed to carry the Amorican flag. But the National Board of Trade is to be con« gratulated on tho unanimity with which it as- gorted its opposition to bounties, and subsidies, and special logialation in favor of any branch of industry at the expense of othors. This is an advance towards froodom of trade that is worthy of all commendation. Itis sn assertion of the true principle of goverument, that each industry and occupation should stand on its own bottom. The sbipbuilding iuterest represonted in tho Convention declared that they did mnot want subsidies or Covornmont nid, and if loft alono would soon bo ablo to compete with the shipbuilders of othor lands, Tlus ability to competo with foreign shipbuilders has beon nc- complishied in spite of tha protoctive policy. The groat advance in the price of foreign coal, and tho consequent advauce in tho cost of iron, has brought the prico of tho raw material in England so noar to 8 par with that in the United States that compotition is once moro practicable, and the obstruction in the way ot iron shipbuild- ing caused by the American tariff hae boen over~ come by tho loveling up of DBritish and other European prices, NOTES AND OPINION.
