New Yorx, Sept. 12 —Mm-Joh# Roach continued his testimony before the Senate Sub-committee on labor and education. He leave to correct some misapprebensions witich hé sald seemed to exist In the minds of the public regarding bis pre- vious testimony. He det e testified that ships could be built as cheaply m this country a3 in England. He stated that the materials were as cheap here asin England, but that the cost of labor was greater, which increased the cost of duilding. ‘This was because labor was better edu- cated ahd more intelligent here than in England and could demand and obtain better wages. He also stated that It was not the first cost of the ship that made {timpossibie to compete with Great Britain in this industry, but the increased cost of capital. The witness believ'd in the protection of labor in order todeveiop properly the resources at the country. Withou protection he declared that no person would have an opportunity of de- veloping his genius unless those industries existed. in waicn bis talents could be exercised, He claimed that without protection no industries except farm- ing and mining could be carried on. In the cases of three commodities, namely—cotton and woolen 00d8 and fron, the ave value of the yearly importations for the last 10 years was $1,178.000,000. This state of facts Mr. Roach considered a danger- ug sign as they existed under the present tariff lawa. Something was wrong. It was infamous that this large amount of money should be pald every year to foretgners, and & sbame that, while America could f her population, she could not clothe them. It was the result, no claimed, of a great war which was going on between foreign italists to get the control Of the American mar- kets. It was the means of bu'lding up great for- eign monopolies, whose only object was to get as great an advantage as possible in the markets of Of other countries. In order to compete with Brit- ish manufacturers the American workman must consent to degrade bimself to the condition of the laboring classes abroad. In speaking on the sub- Ject of free ships, this witness sald that at the present time Great Britain had one thousand mil- Mons of money invested in the shipping business. It was her most profitable industry. THE ENGLISH MARINE. Ten years ago Encland had 142,000 men engaged in the sailing merchant service and 8,700 in the Steam merchant vessels. ‘To-day there were 104,000 men in the sailing service and 166,000 in the steam service. During the past year the earnings of this Immense merchant feet was four hundred millions of dollars. This enormous stride of British people was accomplished at the expense of this country. ‘The interests of the workingmen here were neglected by those who ought to have guard- ed them. ‘This was the secret of the DECLINE OF AMERICAN SHIPPING. Great Britain had subsidized her snip-bullders and placed) them in a position where here could be no opposition. Twenty- five per the capital invested in ship-bullding was drawn from the English treasury and pald to the English ship-bullders in order to enable them to b down American competition. Between the years of 1848 and 1852 the sum pald out of the Engiish treasury in subsi- Hes was $148,000,000. England’s foreign trade to-day was seven hundred times that of this try. — Witness claimed that he ha ked for a subsidy, but ls great griev- ince was that he did not get pald enough for car- rylng the mails between New York and Havana. He claimed that he paid more for tug service in bringing the malls ‘from quarantine to the post Mice than he obtained from the government for carrying the mails, On the questions of THE HOURS OF LAHOR, Mr. Roach belleved that if an eight-hour system was established by the government it would be necessary to increase the protective tariff In order to counteract ‘the influence of the increased cost of production. The only way to beneft the condition of labor in general was to give it achance at the land. oe gee American Pomological Society. BIENNIAL SESSION IN PHILADELPHIA.

The whole was under the management of a committee of Indies Of the neighborhood. Mra. and Miss Nesbitt, Mrs. Mahal, the Misses Hutton, Riggs and Magruder, Miss Burke, Mise Janney ind Nelson were among those most active in the accomplishment of the many details which accom) such an undertaking. The fatr the first day was thronged lacque a young lady of the neighborhood, really @ work of art, and should have been‘sold a& auction. The flower-girls, the lemonade vende and the charming atvendants at_ tne retresiment tables were taxed to the limit of their resour: tomake no mention of the patronage bestows Upon the fish ponds, and the votes for the prizes which it was not bribery and corruption to pay for. ‘The entertainment upon the second evening, at which there was not even standing room for tbe audience, also met with high approval.

The orchestra, composed of young men of tno county, opened the performance, Mr. Scott upon the violin and Miss Brooke, the Misses Hutton and Mrs. Nazro upon the piano, furnished the instra- mental music. | Vocg! solos by Miss Stevens, of Washington; “Mr. Nelson, of Annapolis; Wiss Avert, Miss dnd Mr. Miller, of Montgotuery county, were applauded. The financial success of the Uwo evenings was beyond the higuest hopes of all con- cerned.
