SECRETARY EATARD DISCKEDITS THE STORY OF A WEEN AMERICAN AND GERMAN VESSELS, A rumor current in Kiel, Germany, Sunday, * an enzagement had taken place in Samoan waters between an American man-of-war-and the German corvette Olga, could not be con- Ermed last night. It was alleged that the favtican vessel fired the first shot. Secretary “Sard said last night that he regarded such a tas nighly improbable, as there was an ierstanding that belligerent action in Somoa to La ibe suspended, pending the conference » fp be held at Berlin.’ He also pointed out that ris hardiy possible that information of such on B street sc the 1 ot affairs would be known at Kiel before '* was received at Berlin or Washington. oo The French govern yer fects of the weibly, if nm government has instructed the Various departments to prevent, ecessary, meetings of committeer Of the patriotic league. | neaamepnacnarcas t the Hamilton.——Gen. | were strongly reinforced by the more im- perative voice of experience. The divergent interests of peace speedily demanded a “more perfect union.” The merchant, the shipmaster, and the manufacturer discovered and disclosed to our statesmen and to the peo- ple that commercial emancipaticn must be ad- ded to the political freedom which had been so bravely won. The commercial policy of the mother country bad not relazed any of its hard and oppressive features. To hold in check the development of our commercial marine, to prevent or retard the establishment and growth of manufactures in the states, and to secure the American market for their shops, and the carrying trade for their ships, was the policy of European statesmen, and was | pursued with the most selfish vigor. Petitions poured in upon Congress urging the imposition of discriminating duties that should encourage the production of needed things at home. The patriotism of the people, which no longer found 4 field of exercise in war, was energetically directed to the duty of equipping the young republic for the defense of it independence by making its people self-de- pendent. Societies for the promotion of home manufactures and for encouraging the use of domestics in the dress of the people were or- ganized in many of the states, The revival at the end of the century of the same pao triotie interest in the preservation and de- vel it of domestic and danse of our working. poopie, agaiaa\ i: furious foreign competition, is an incident worthy of attention. It is not s departure, but a return, that we have witnessed. The protec- tive party had then its opponants, The argu- ment was made as now that its benefits enured to particular classes or sections, If the question became in any sense or at any time sectional, it was only be- cause slavery existed in some of the states, But for this, there was no reason why the cotton- producing states should not have led or walked abreast with the New England states in the pro- duction of cotton fabrics. There was this rea- son only why the states that divide with Pennsylvania in the mineral treas- ures of the great southeastern and central mountain ranges should have been 80 tardy in bringing to the smelting furnace and to the mill the coal and iron from their near op posing hill sides. Mill fires were lighted at the funeral pile of slavery. The emancipation proclamation was heard in the depths of the earth, as well asin the sky. Men were made free and material things became our better servants. The sectional element has happily been climinated from the tariff discus- sion. We have no longer states that are necessarily only planting states, None are ex- cluded from achieving that diversification of pursuit among the people which brings wealth snd contentment. The cotton plantation will not be less valuable when the product is spun in the country town by operatives whose necessities call for diversified crops, and create a home demand for garden and agricultural products, Every new mine, furnace and factory is an ex- tension of the productive capacity of the state kindness and education have been fairly tried, the contrary conclusion cannot be plausibly urged. Thave altogether rejected the suggestion of a special executive policy for any section of our country. It is the duty of the executive to administer and enforce, in the methods and by the instrumentalities pointed out and provided by the Constitation, all the laws enacted by Congress. These laws are general and their sdministra- tion should be uniform and equal. As a citi- zen may not elect what laws he will obey, neither may the executive elect which he will enforce. The duty to obey and to execute embraces the Constitution in its en- tirety and the whole code of laws enacted under it, The evil example of permitting in- dividuals, corporations or communities to nullify the laws because they cross some selfish or local interests or preju- dices, is full of danger, not only to the nation at large, but much more to those who use this pernicious expe} dient to escape their just obliga tions orto obtainan unjust advantage over others, They will presently themselves be compelled to appeal to the law for protection, and those who would use the law asa defense must not deny that use of it to others. If our great corporations would more scrupulously observe their legal limitations and duties they would have cause knowledge as to what they are. The privileges of American citizenship are so great and its du- ties so grave that we may well insist upon a good knowledge of every person applying for citizenship and & good knowl- edge by him of our institution. We should not cease to be hospitable to immigration, but we should cease to be careless as to the charac- ter of it. There are men of alll races, even the best, whose coming is necessarily » burden upon our public revenne or a threat to social order. These should be identified and excluded. We have happily maintained a policy of avoiding all interference with European affairs, We have been only interested spectators of their contention in diplomacy and in war, ready to use our friendly offices to promote peace, but never obtruding our advice and never attempting unfairly to coin the distresses of other powers into commercial advantage to ourselves. We havea just right to expect th our European policy will be the American policy of European courts. It isso manifestly incompatible with those precautions for our peace and safety which all the great powers habitually observe and enforce in mat- ters affecting them, that a shorter between our eastern and western seaboards should be dominated by an European government, that we may confidently expect that such a purpose will not be enter- tained by any friendly power. We shall, in the future, as inthe past, use every endeavor to any friendly nation or the just rights of its citizens, nor to exact the like treatment for our own. Calmness, justice and consideration should characterize our diplomacy. The off- cos of an intelligent diplomacy to the Peaceful adjustment of all internation- al difficulties, By such methods we will make our contribution to the world's peace, which no nation values more highly, and avoid the opprobrium which must fall upon the nation that ruthlessly breaks it. The duty devolved by lawupon the President to nominate, and by and with the advice and consent of the Senate to appoint, all public officers whose appointment is not otherwise provided for in the Constitution or by act of Congress, has become very burdensome, and ite wise and efficient discharge full of difficulty. The civil list is so large that @ personal knowledge of any large number of the applicants is impossible. The President must rely upon the representations of others, and these are often made inconsiderately and without any just sense of responsibility. I have a right, I think, to insist that those who volun- teer or are invited to give advice as to appoint- ments shall exercise consideration and fidelity. A high sense of duty and an ambition to im- prove the service should characterize all pub- lie officers. There are many ways in which the convenience and comfort of those who have business with our public offices may be pro- moted by « thoughtful and obliging SS Lier.

How long will those who rejoice that slavery no longer exists cherish or tolerate the inca- pacities it put upon tneir communities? I look hopefully to the continuance of our protec- tive system, and to the consequent de- velopment of manufacturing and min- ing enterprises in the states,@ hitherto wholly given to agriculture, as a potent influ- ence in the perfect unification of our people. The men who have invested their capital in these enterprises, the farmers who have felt the benefit of their neighborhood, and the men who work in shop or field, will not fail to find and to defend a commu- nity of interest. Is it not quite pos- sible that the farmers and the promoters of the great mining and manufacturing enter- prises, which have recently been established in the south, may yet find that the free ballot of the workingman, without dis- tinction of race, is needed for their defense as well as for his own? 1 do uot doubt that if those men in the south who now accept the tariff views of Clay and the constitutional exposition of Webster, would courageously avow and defend their real convictions they would not find it difi- cult, by friendly instruction and co-op- eration, to make the black man their efficient and safe ally, not only in estab- lisning correct principles in our national administration, in preserving, for their local communities, the benefits of social order and econimical and honest gov- ernment.

The community that by concert, open or secret, among its citizens denies to a portion of its members their plain rights under the law has severed the only safe bond of social order and prosperity. The evil works from a bad center, both ways. It demoralizes those who Practice it, and destroys the faith of those who suffer by it in the efficiency of the law as a safe protector. The man in whose breast that faith has been darkened is naturally the subject of dangerous and uncanny suggestions, ‘Those rho use unlawful methods, if moved by no higher motive than the selfishness. that maintain and enlarge our friendly rela- tions with all the great powers, but they will not expect us to look kindly upon any project that would leave us subject to the dangers of hostile observation or en- vironment. We have not sought to dominate or to absorb any of our weaker neighbors, but rather to aid and encourage them to establish free and stable governments, resting upon the consent of their own people. We have a clear right to expect, therefore, that no European government will seek to establish colonial dependencies upon the terri- tory of these independent American states, ‘That which a sense of justice restrains us from Prompted them, may well stop and inquire what is to be the end of’ this, An unlawful expedient cannot become a permanent condi- tion of government.

A community where law is the rule of conduct, and where courts, not mobs, execute its penalties, is the only attractive field for business investments and honest labor, Our naturalization laws should be so amend- edas to make the inquiry into the character and good disposition of persons applying for citizenship more careful and searching.

But there is nothing in the condition of our country or of our people to suggest that anything pres- sently necessary to the public prosperity, security or honor should be unduly post- poned. It will be the duty of Con- grees wisely to forecast and estimate these extraordinary demands, and having added them to our ordinary expenduturgg, to so ad- just our revenue laws that no considerable an- nual surplus will remain. We will fortunately be able to apply to the redemption of the public debt any smaller and unforseen excess of revenue. This is better than to reduce our income below our necessary expenditures, with the resulting choice between | another change of our revenue laws and an in- | crease of the public debt. It is quite possible, Tam sure, to effect the necesssry reduction in our revenues without breaking down our pro- tective tariff or seriously injuring any do- mestic industry.

INCIDENTS OF THE DAY. a eS At daybreak this morning the streete were filled with moving crowde. Every variety of Uniform, from the sober drab of Quaker city Political clubs tothe sunset hues of some of the pioneer clubs could be seen in the crowd. Long lines of people were streaming from the depots, with gripsacks in their bands and umbrellas under their arms. At this time the rain bed ceased and the sky gave some faint signs that the day might be clear. These signs were exceedingly taint, however. Tho sky was gray and filled with scurrying clonds that tacked and veered with every change of thé shifting treacherous breeze. A little af- ter 8 o'clock @ drizzling misty rain began to fall, which gave s somewhat forlom and disconsolate tone to all the street scenes.
