For ourselves, we look upon the abolition of
slavery in the South as one OF the greatest curses
that could fall upon us as nation, and to them in
particular and, so far from It's being an evil, we
look upon it as having done more towards happi-
fying degraded race than all the missionaries
that philanthropy aud religion have ever sent
FORTH
That is taking The position which pro slavery
men every where ought TO take. Let them dis
c'lss slavery; let them bring forth their strong
reasons, they have any; let them show the right
if they can On that ground alone the ground
of right-can they defend themselves. If they
fail there, then they bound TO give up at once

THE LOAN.

The Secretary of the Treasury has advertls-
ed. as our readers have seen, for three and a
half millions Of the loan lately authorized by
Congress. Accounts from New York, received
Yesterday, are favorable to the prospect of
this portion of the loan being subscribed for at
reasonable rates. We cannot but hope that the
condition of things has reached its lowest point,
and that Congress will now follow up the Loan
Bill with such other efficient measures as shall
Immediately bring the credit of the Government
to its usual high state. To this end nothing
can be wanting but suitable provision for reve-
nue.. How eminent will be the service, and
how enviable the fortune of that man, or those
men, who, by spirited and cordial efforts, shall
redeem the consequences of past delay, and give
to the country, before June expires, not only
substantial and ample revenue. but well con-
sidered plan of finance and currency All this
service is practicable; all this distinction easily
attainable. -a

DAGUERRE'S MAGICAL PICTURES

No exhibition has ever been more justly appreciated
and universally admired. There has been added q
new Picture representing the highly trimmed Coffin
Of Napoleon in the Church Des Inualides at Paris,
also from the pencil Of Mons. Daguerre, and which
has equal claims to regard with those before noticed
The magic effects of these Pictures cannot be wit
messed without creating astonshment and delight, and
no who has them but must concede that they
form the greatest curiosity of art ever shown to the
American public. We would recommend every con-
nosseur of the fine to visit these Pictures without
delay as the propretors M. M. Marley & Lonat will
shortly close their interesting exhibition.

should the present mad policy be persisted in,
the gentlemen who are so devoted to Bank
will be permitted to retire to the shades of pr-
vate life, there TO contemplate at their leisure
the surprising loneliness of their idol. They
may hope to effect their object before they re-
tire, bat in this they will be disappointed, as
their terms of service will have expired with the
next session, and then farewell long fare
well to all their greatness. In the meanwhile,
what is to become of the country? Why, it
must continue to suffer, unless the energies of
the People can enable them to rise superior to
their wrongs, under the guidance of prudence,
frugality, and perseverance.

commerce and commercial marine. Upon IN
vestigation, however, we find that of the capital
and labor employed in producing piece of sa-
tinet and negro cloth. only portion has been
seen in the factory village. The entire fleece
of several of the large focks of Saxony sheep
selected with great care, and now whitening the
hills of Vermont, of New York, or Pennsylva-
MA is destined for the satinet factory of Massa
chusetts; and the cotton is being picked and
gnned in Alabama, for the warp of the future
satlnets and negro cloths, to be ie-shlpped in
Boston or New York, combined with the wool
of the North, to clothe the planters and laborers
who produced it, Two ships fiom Smyrna and
South America are loaded chiefly with course
wool for this satinet factory, and but for the de-
mand created by it and similar establishments
for this article, these ships and numerous others
engaged in the same trade could not find en-
ployment
We might easily trace through numerous un-
seen avenues that vital connection existing be-
tween the three great branches of national in
dustry, agriculture, commerce and manufac-
lures; but it would seem only necessary that
reasonable man should direct his attention to
the subject to become satisfied that no perma-
nent advantage can be enjoyed by one Of them
without participation by the others; and in con-
siderIng single case like the one we have sup
posed, others will be suggested to his mind in
which this reciprocating connection is still more
apparent.
Whenever the Tariff question has been made
subject of discussion, hitherto has been claimed
by the Jealous champions offree trade, thata scale
of duties which should, in It's operation, serve to
protect in any degree the manufactures of the
country, must, to the same extent, depress the
agricultural and commercial interests-as if
these great interests were, in the nature of
things, antagonist to each other. The fallacy of
these opinions is proved as we'll by reference to
the past, as by every days observation; and we
are happy to know, that many who have been
utterly impracticable on this subject are now
ready in considering it to be guided by the sure
lights of experience and to discard any theory
however cherished-which is opposed by facts.
Even in regard to important principles of gov
eminent, honest men are often mistaken and
there is perhaps no better evidence of true great
ness than readiness to change even these,
when the judgment becomes perfectly satisfied.
that false ones have long been valued as true:
Opinions-they still take wider range
Find if you can, in what you cannot change.

THE PROCESS OF THE WEST.
ST. LOUIS AND ITS TRADE.

We recently alluded to the wonderful progress of
ST. Louis. We have since been furnished by the st.
Louis Chamber of Commerce with much valuable sta
tistica information in relation to the growth of that
CITY and the Western country generally. In 1880,
the population of St. Louis 1852. 1t is now
rising 10000. During the year 194l, 300OOO 900 of
bricks were made in the city, 25,000000 of which
were sold and used in that place There are steam
saw-mills there, mills for planning boards, white
lead factories 3 oil mills and hour-ms. The first
Insurance Office was established in 1881 There are
now offices, the total marine risks Of which amount
to upwards of S5S000 000 In l84l, the receipts Of
lead from the Galena mines amounted to 425,OOO
pigs valued at more than $1,0O0,OOO The growing
crops of Tobacco will, it is said, range at from
Il, 600 to 1900 hhds. The importation to ST Lou
is, of cloths blankets &c., intended for the Amer-
can fur trade, is set down at 5000 per annum
and the exports and home consumption OF buffalo
robes, peltrics, SC. at 900. The American Fur
Company employs several steam and other boats ana
several thousand men. Their boats at least once a
wear. ascend the Missouri to the mouth of the Yellow
Stone. Hemp is another staple of Missouri. 1t is
estimated that the crop for 1912, will in Illinois and
Missouri amount to not less than 10000 tons. This
hemp is worth $780, 900 in raw state. But the most
valuable exports from ST. Louis and the country con-
nected with it. are bacon, pork and lard During the
present winter, 47,0O0 hogs were slaughtered at
Alton and 10000 at Peoria while 1T IS SAID that
the Illinois river, with the Alton trade, sends out
annually, not less than 5000 tons of pork The value

wheat are also important items, and show an annual
aggregate of nearly Sl,O0O,OOO About l5oo horses'
1900 mules, and 600 head of cattle, were shipped
during lS4l to the South. The imports are estimated
| in l641, at S20,OOO,OOO
These are but few of the facts grouped together
by the Board of Trade, but they are calculated to
convey forcble impression as to the onward pro-
press of the West. 1t is estimated that IN lo4l, Slo
| 600 900 in exchange were sold in st. Louis Last
wear, the number Of steamers the Mississippi and
its tributaries was 437, about $50 OF which were
employed in the st. Louis trade during the whole or
a great portion of the year. AS more fully Illus
tratng the character of the trade at this point we

T. lie GLOBE, COMMUNICATED, AND UO.
The Globe attributes some articles recently
published in the New Y ork Commercial Adver-
vertiser to the same pen that produces articles
on the same subject (currency) for the Madiso-
MAN, and both to Mr.. Webster. 1t makes a
column and half OF the material. Now it is a
pity to dash its curiously wrought fabric down.
But really our contemporary is wide of the mark
this time. We must solemnly insist upon 1t
that the article copied from this paper, was writ
ten by the editor, whose name is on the title
page, and the others-in the Commercial
were written by concerted Loco F0co! The
gentleman is here to answer for himself. Will
the Globe call for his name ?

CONGRESS.

In the House of Representatives, yesterday
Mr.. Dean, from the Committee on the Terrific
ries, reported bill for the relief of the inhabi
and referred to the Committee of the Whole on
the state of the Union.
The Civil and Diplomatic Appropriation bill
was then taken up, when the amendments adopt
ed in Committee of the Whole were concurred
in by the House, and the bill was engrossed fol
third reading.
| Mr.. ]. r. Ingersoll, from the Committee OF
Ways and Means, reported bill to fix and pro-
vide for certain incidental expenses of the Co.
vernment and for the compensation of officers
connected Herewith.
The bill providing that one term of the Cir
| cult Court of the United States shall be held at
Columbus, and the other at Cincinnati, Ohio,
instead of both terms being held annually at the
first named city, as heretofore, was read third
time and passed-yeas 100, nays AZ.
On the motion of Mr.. Fillmore, the House re-
solved itself into Committee of the Whole on
the state of the Union, (Mr. Allen, of Maine, in
the Chair)
Mr. Fillmore urged the necessity for taking
up the illmaking appropriations for the support
oithe army and the military academy at West
Point for the year 1912; and made motion to
this effect, but it did not prevail-ayes 70, nays
78.
Mr. Gushing moved to proceed to the cons-
deratlon of the bill to establish Board of the
Exchequer but the effort was Intellectual, and
The House then took up the Apportionment
bill.
Mr.. Stuart, OF Illinois, moved to strike out
$4,000, which was proposed as the representa-
tive ratio. The motion was agreed to, and
So, 900 was inserted in lieu thereof Should this
bill become law, as thus amended, the
number of Representatives, we believe, will
be two hundred and sixty-one.
The Committee rose, and the Speaker, hav-
ing resumed the Chair, laid before the House a
communication from the Secretary Ct the Ma
Wy, inviting the members to visit the steam
ships Mississippi and Missouri.
On the motion of Mr.. Wise, it was ordered
that the House will adjourn at twelve O'Clock
on Saturday for that purpose.
The House then adjourned

Mr. SIMMONS replied that that would depend
upon the pleasure of the Senate.
