DR.. FRANKLIN'S OPINIONS ON
FREEDOM OF TRADE.

Mr.. Webster has recently claimed DR..
Franklin as an advocate of Protective
Tariff, enormously attributing 10 him a
paper written by Mr.. Tench Coke. The
following extracts from his works will
show what his opinions upon this subject
were.
Note respecting Trade and Manufactures.
London, July7 1867.
"Suppose a country, X, with three man.
ufactures, as cloth, silk, iron, supplying
three other countries, A, b, C, but is desi.
rous of increasing the vent, and raising
the price of cloth in favor of her own
clothiers.
In order to do this, she forbids the i'm.
porta,ion of foreign cloth ftom A.
A, in return, forbids silks from X.
Then the sik-workers complain of a
decay in trade.
And x, TO content them, forbids silks
from B.
B, in return, forbids iron from X.
Then the ironworkers complain OF de-
cay.
And X iorbids the importation Of iron
from C.
G, in return, iorbiJs cloth from X.
What is gotten by all these prohibitions!
AnSmer: All four find their common
stock of the enjoyments and convcnences
of life diminished.

AMERICAN STOCKS.

The following extract from Messrs.
Barings' London Circular OF the Sd Febru'
ary, will be found interesting, as lndlca-
ting in some degree the feeling among
English capitalists IN relation to Amer'
can securilies:-Iropic.
At the close ofthe last year the aggre-
gate amount of American stocks held IN
England must have been reduced to some
extent below what it was at the COM
mencement of lS43, by purchases Tor the
United States. Instead of, as was form
erly the case, our prices guiding those In
New York and Philadelphia, it is now the
quotations from those places which intiu-
ence our rates: and if more confidence IN
the stocks is entertained here, 1t is be-
cause such confidence has originated with
and has been felt by Americans them-
selves. Each fall in the United States,
although temporary, renews, apprehen.
sions here, permanent decline would
produce a corresponding fall here, without
Increasing the number of purchases, and
we can only look for an increase of solid
investments in Europe TO an immediate
return to regularity in such States as
Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Louisiana.
and a cenyiction that such regularity VIII
be scrupulously adhered to. In the three
last months of lS43, transactions were nu'
nerous and extensive, in the month just
expired they have been ,rifiing, and Ou'
prices may be considered nominal.

Hints Ols Ma:risnOny.

/ No woman will be likely 10 dispute us,
when We assert that marriage is her des-
tiny. n man may pos ibly ill up some
sort Of an existence without loving but
a woman wNh nothing 10 love, cherish,
care for and minister to, Is an anomaly
in the universe an existence without
an object. 1t is as natural for woman
TO have some one thing To cling to for
proicctlon-soine one To look up TO for
advice and assistance, AS To breathe
W ,thout II no woman ever was or ever
can be happy. IL is tho grand want Of
her nature: and nothing can satisfy her
heat with such void untitled.
Now, with the exception Of some oc-
caslonaI irregularities in the relative pro-
portions of the sexes, produced by cir
cumstances, such aS the settlement OF new
countries, there is no reason why every
man should not have wife, and every
woman "a husband and this would be
easily brought, about by the exercise Of
more common sense, and less ambition.
Each sex IS looking up for something
above us own sphere. The son OF an
industrious and successful mechanic must
be prolessIona! man or a merchant, in
stead OF following in his fathers foot
steps this is folly the first. When
he looks around for wife, the neat, in
dustrIous daughter Of mechanic like
his father, Is net good enough for him 4;
he must make love to some fine lady
who IS one generation in advance tbat
is, her grandfather was mechanic, in
stead o.! her Iaiher-a very aristOcrailc
distinction. On the other hand, the cir!
who works for her living, earning it by
her honest labors, would not deign TO
encourage The addresses of aborlng
man she would set her cap for Il gentle
mar; iorsoo,h !! The mechanics daugh-
ter, educated upon her fathers hard
earnings, to be a fine lady, encourages
The attentions OF a set OF tops and dang
Iers, who drive sensible and honest men
away from her IN disgust, and she be-
comes the victim Of some sorry sharper
or shallow fool.
Now this is all wrong deplorubly,
wreichedly wrong. Girls should know
that men, superior to themselves in edu-
cation and position, do not associate with
:hcm for any good. Men should know
that, by marrying gIrls educated IN habits
of iiie above their lorIunes, ihey are not
likely to have good wives
ii requires but the exercise of o little
sound sense, 10 have every person suited
to their minds Ii men but knew It, il
is better to have wife grateful for more
than she expected, than grunblng at
less. 1t is delightful going up the hill of
fortune, but horribly Joltng aud aggravat-
Ing work To come down.
For man to say he cannol afford To
marry, is absolute nonsense. ANY man
can afford to marry who is not afraid to
work 1t takes less to suprart two to-
gether than two separately, and for every
mouth 10 feed comes from some source
additional energy Married men earn
more money than single ones, and spend
less. For the comparative happiness OF
married aud single life, we may appeal
To the experience OF all who have tired
both, and to the observation Of those who
are suffering the horrId discomiors Of
celbacy.
