ceye and to the nonprolected who pay
it, 1t is tribute from the many to the few.
It is legislative robbery, which is as much
robbery as any on the highway, when
committed contrary 10 the constitutional
compact. The preteXt is as shallow, in
the pretence that it is solely to protect
American industry, as that the object is to
raise revenue according to the provisions
of the Constitution.
Protection implies also, that those en-.
gagged in the pursuit 10 be protected are 10
be unproitably employed, and for the pub
lie advantage. Are these manufacturers
entitled to it onlthese considerations Are
they unproftabIy Employed Are diyi-
bends of from 10 to 80 per cent. evidence
of in Should all other interests, in good
or bad seasons, with good or bad crops,
paying nothing, or only 3, 5, and per
cent be made tributary TO them, and Gun
bono--where is the public benefit In
these manufacturers pockets, and in them
only.
DO they benefit any body else2 Do
they even pay more TO the American
hond.Iabor they profess to be so anxious to
foster and protect Do they pay more
wages under the tariff of 1912, when
their profits ranged from 10 to 30 per cent
than they did under the previous act
when they were from 7 TO 20 per cent?
Let the operators answer. II a laborer
from Europe, equally competent, 60 to a
manufacturer, and offer to do the work for
rs Cts for which he previously paid 81,
would he not reduce the price of the
American, or turn him off and take the
other2 Let all the world answer.
1t is we'll known and admitted fact,
that the act of 1912 grants more protec.
ton than the manufacturers themselves
had the hardihood to ask. Their commit
Tee asked for only $l7 ton on iron, but
the Congressional committee on manufac-
lures said, put it down $25, and we will
be able to pass it for $l7. So of bagging,
also; they asked but 81 cts. per yard but it
was entered at cents per square yard,
equal to Ga cents yard, and passed. And
so also of many other articles; and yet
this is the act Mr.. Clay promises shall not
be repealed if he is elected forgetting
his solemn obligations to the Compromise
act Of 1888, and the years of patient
endurance of the protective system borne
by the South, under the assurance of Mr..
Clay and the whole nation, (Mr. Webster
and a few discontents only excepted,) that
nothing should, after July, 1916, be taxed
higher than 90 per cent, and remembering
his of.repeated assurances that he meant
to adhere to the Compromise bill, will any
Southern man TO agree to vote for him

es the cheaper kinds at higher rate. 1t
does this by minlmums and specific duties.
the effect of which is not apparent on the
face Of the law, but will be illustrated by a
few instances.
The apparent rate of duty on undyed
cottons is thirty per cent, upon their va.
lue. But 1t is provided that all such ma
nuiactures, not exceeding in value 30 cts.
per square yard, shall be valued at 20 cts.
The effect is TO impose uniform duty Of
six cents on the article, whether it be
worth cents or 20 cents the yard. Tho
real duty is estimated by the Treasury De-
partment to be, on the average, equal to
40 per cent. BY the statement of mer-
chants of this city to the House of Repre-.
sentatives, il appears to have been in eff
feet from % to 100 per cent. OF the gross
inequality of its operation, there can be
no dispute, A shifting costing 30 cents
or over, is taxed thirty per cent. one
costing l0vcents, is taxed sir,y per cent. I;
and one costing 8 cents, is taxed 100 per
cent
.Calicoos, not exceeding in value 30
cents, are valued at 80 cents; and those
not exceeding 80 cents, at 80 cents. A
fine and costly calico is taxed but 80 per
cent, while one of the more common kind
in general use among the poorer classes,
and worth ten cents, would be taxed 30
per cent

For the behavior of The Democrats toWards

lnasmuch as the omens of Mr.. Folks
election become more suspicious with
every successive day, it is time to bethinI
ourselves of the manner in which we shall
behave towards our political adversaries in
the hour of their defeat. A friend of ours,
person of great magnanimity of feeling,
and possessed of that highest kind Of good
breeding, which springs from natural hui
manity of disposition, has taken the pains
to draw up few rules concerning the de-
meanor proper to be observed on this &C.
casion, which we herel lay before our
readers.
"When you meet wing next Novem.
Der, after the elections, it is your duty to
treat him with great consideration and
tenderness, for you should not forget that
when the wings are defeated they have
nothing to fall back upon for consolation ;
whereas, if the case had been your own,
you know that it would have been differ
ent. Wink at the errors of those who
have transgressed through Ignorance, or
the preiudces of education. But there
are also among them some who, while they
condemn Mr.. Clay's declared policy in
every particular, will yet vote for him at
the coming election. Such ought not to
be permitted to vote for any other person,
whether he be a candidate or not, during
the whole of their unnatural lives. Es-
chew them; bar the gates of the democra-
tic party firmly against them.
"When Audubon's new work on quad
rupeds Of America comes out, recolect
that you. cannot discourse freely in the
presence of a wing, concerning all the
animals described in it. If you happen
to be turning over the pages that belong
to it, ascertain beforehand in what part OF
the series the engraving of the animal
called coon is to be found, and when you
approach 1t dexterously turn over two or
three leaves at once, so as to avoid the
sight Of 1t altogether. When you have
occasion to speak of Vice Chancellor Nc.
Coun, drop the name, and call him mere
ly Vice Chancellor. If you happen to
like hard cider, do not say so. 1t will be
eSPedient to express your meaning by the
phrase, al prefer the soft juice of the ap.
pIe,' even though you abhor circumlocu-
ton.
There is one jest of which you must
especially beware, Never, unless wing
should call you horse, say anything about
that carriage which was built and sent 10

ington. 10 the case supposed, and in that
only, simply say that, if you are a horse,
