"WR CANNOT MANUFACTURES IN THIS
COUNTRY, LABOR is TOO HIaH!' 1t IS
well to give to the opponents OF the Amer
lean System occasionally few hints to
digest. They used to tell us that the price
of labor would be bar to our ever manu-
featuring cotton goods. The last Edin-
burg Review attempts 70 show, that the
manufacture of cotton can never succeed
in the United States. Great Britain has,
it is said, got too far the start OF US.
Looking over Messrs. Burritt & Clayton's
valuable Shipping g. Commercial List,
published in this city, for the amount OF
American cotton goods shipped the last
month from the port of New York to for
eign ports, find they were equal to 500
packages. had the curiosity to look back
and see the yearly progress this new trade
had made.
In 1924 the shipments from New York to
foreign ports, were 163 packages.
1875 1880 do.
1896 1857 do.
1922 viz. months pre-
ceeding Aug. 81, 2077 do
Should the shipments of the remaining
four months of 1897 keep pace with the
previous part of the year, they will amount
to 3I25 packages-about 100000 dollars
value, and from single port be it remem-
bered. The kind of goods exported, it
should be also remembered, are those thai:
have been protected by Government. The
finer goods we do not export, nor even
manufacture our own supplies; our imports
of these goods in 1925 and 1926 amounted
to 20,857 $50 dollars; the avails of our ex-
ports of coarse cottons and all the means
we can scrape together, are required to pay
for them.-.N. Y. Statesman.
Whatever may be thought of the high
tariff theory, no American observer can
visit the noble factories, such as those of
Waltham and Lowell, in the neighborhood
of Boston, without being gratifed by their
existence in our country. Not many weeks
ago, we surveyed the establishment at
Waltham, with pleasure which we can
not adequately express, derived from the
excellence of the machinery, the healthy,
comfortable and respectable appearance of
the numerous operatives, the convenience
of the structures, and the beauty of the
prospect on every side from their windows.
It is combination of objects, eminently
fitted to inspire ideas of the greatest intel
ligence and productiveness in mechanical
processes, and of the most salutary and
least oppressive industry.

WE MAKE THIS SOLEMN APPEAL TO THE
PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA. Suppose President
Adams and his cabinet had pursued the
Virginia policy? Suppose they had de-
clared war against liberal construction !;
Internal Improvements Domestic Manu-
features and Naval Observatories? Sup
pose they had chimed in exactly with the
slang of radicalism, and had protested en-
tire coincidence with Gov. Giles and John
Randolph? Should we have heard then
this cry of corruption? Would any thing
have been said about bargain and sale :?
Not one syllable. Not single whisper of
the kind would have been breathed. All
would have been harmony and confidence,
and honor. We put another
case-suppose Mr.. Clay and his friends,
by their influence, had made Crawford
President, and the latter had appointed the
Secretary TO the station he now occupies ?
Would the welkin have rang with the
shouts of intrigue and bribery? No! Mr.. |
Clay wonld then have been Virginia's "a
vorite son. In this land of chivalry. ga
thousand swords would have leaped from
heir scabbards, to avenge even look that
threatened him with insult"

MURDER. We are informed that on
Saturday week, Robert Bush, of Westfeld,
committed one of the most attrocious acts
ever perpetrated in this part of the coun-
try. The circumstances, as related to US,
were as follows Bush was an intemper-
ate man, and often quarrelled with and
abused his wife, and she had separated
from him and was living with her friends.
He had several times threatened to take
her life, and on Saturday last he loaded his
gun, went to the house where she resided,
entered the room and discharged the gun
at her head. She fell upon the cellar
stairs, and survived only few hours. He
then attempted to kill himself by taking
opium, but did not succeed. He was i'm
mediately secured, and has been commit
ted to prison. Mrs. Bush was of re-
spectacle family in Westfeld she has left
three children.-Hampshae Gazette.

CANADA ELECTION. The Quebec Ga
zette gives list of the recently elected
members of the Provincial Parliament, with
designation of their political character:
Vi the fifty members, fOrty-six are opposed
to the executive administration OF the prov
lnce, or to that Interpretation OF the constl-
tional powers of the assembly which caus-
ed the late dissolution OF the provincial
parliament by the governor in chief The
number OF members who support the adj
mlnistratlon, which in the last assembly
was nine, is reduced to four.
Four members are chosen by the city of
Quebec, four by Montreal, two by the Dor
ough of Three Rivers, one by the borough
of Sorrell, and the remaining 80 by twenty
one counties, three of which choose one
each, and the rest two EACH The men,
bers serve without pay, and their disburse-
ments amount to one or two hundred
pounds per annum. Forty-two are Roman
Catholics, five Episcopalians, and two Of
the church of Scotland. The population
of Lower Canada is about 100000, of whom
nine tenths are Catholics.
KENTUCKY ELECTION. The Frankfort
Commentator proves, by the acknowledged
returns of the late Congressional Election
in Kentucky, that there were eight thoats-
and Sir hundred and eighty-SeUen more
votes given to the Administration Candi-
dates than to those who avowed themselves
for Jackson. There can be no mistake in
the calculation. Every candidate on each
side of the question is named, and every
vote given to each is computed. The returns
are undisputed, and show the majority for
the Administration to be 1867 The Adj
ministration majority in the State Legisla-
ture is established at sixteen, or II to 81;
and yet people are to be found so "ineffa-
bly, stupid" as to assert that General Jack
son will get the votes of Kentucky.

Statistical comparisons are a favolite
pursuit with the French Economists, and
they generally conduct them with great
fairness. In one of these, recently made
we find the following facts In 1896, $3.50
English vessels entered the Baltic, 81
French, and not single Spanish. There
are in England about $4,000 public car
riages for travelling in France $4,000
Spain. fUe 1.-THE public roads in England
are in extent about 100000 miles. In
France with twice the territory 10000;
Spain about $500, half of which are not
traversable. England has $4,000 steam
engines; France 1900, Spain four The
annual productiveness of an English labor
er is rated at 500 francs a French do. 225
francs, of Spaniard at so. The popula-
lation of the three Kingdoms is-France
England land Ireland) 22,000,-

of England is palpable from this statement

LARGE Turtle. The following advertise
ment is copied from Philadelphia paper:
There is now at Harrowgate, at the honse of
Mr.. Woodruff, miles from this city, an Amer
ican Land Turtle, which will weigh $50 lbs .
It can be seen any time without charge. This
monster, which he undoubtedly is, has carried
a gentleman with case, whose weight is 235
lbs. ANY person who weighs 300 lbs, NAV
have pleasant, sure, but slow ride on his back,
at any time. IL is worth while for those who
aro fond of natural curiositics to see him.

RUM, MURDER, AND THE GALLONS. A
corporal in the Kings 10th regiment, sta
toned at Grand River, Upper Canada, who
murdered his wife in the most inhuman
manner, in November last, after having
drawn his weeks rations of rum and drank
the whole the same day, was tried on the
9Th ult. at the Niagara Assizes, and con-
victed. His daughter, aged 10 years, was
present when he commenced abusing her
mother, but her father dragged her out in
to the snow, and, as it appeared in evil
dence, finished the murder with bayonet.
His only excuse was, that "he had been in
liquor, and awakened and thought himself
fighting with an enemy, and it turned out
to be a woman" He was found guilty,
and was executed on the 10th ult.
