A Yankee shoemaker.

"You hain't no occasion for iur, nor nothin,
'spose," saida jolly son Of Crspinfrom the land
Of wooden nutmegs, as he entered shoe eslab-
lishment with his kit nicely done up in his apron,
'WonderifI hain't," was the reply of the boss
"Why, should like dozen, if could get themi
but what kind of shoe can you makeW
''Oh, as to the matter ofthat," said the snob,
Isl reckon how as can make a decent sort of a
craft"
''Spread your kit then" said the boss, "Tll give
you pair TO try, and if your work suits me, !
can give youa steady seat ofwork."
Crspin was soon at il, hammering and whist
ling away as happy as dam at high water, and
the boss was called away on some business, which
detained him two or three hours; meanwhile the
tamperng jur had produced thing which bore
some faint resemblance to a shoe, and feeling
somewhat ashamed of it, hid it in pile Of leath-
er chips that lay on the floor, and proceeded to
make another, which he had barely time to fin
ish, when his employer entered, and began to ex-
anime it.
''Look here, Mister" said he, 81 guess you
Incedn' make the mate to this; it's the greatest
botch that ever was made in my shop, that's a
fact"
"P'raps you'd like to bet trihe on that said
the snob,
"Bet," respondedthe boss, "why, I'll bet ten
dollar bill against hand of tobacco, that there
never was shoe made in this shop half so bad
as this." 8
"Done," says Crispn, at the same time casting
a sly wink at his shopmaes; but stop, let me see
Iif I've got SO much of the weed with me. Oh,
yes, here's whole hand of Cavendish," }" and lay
ing it on the cutting board, he ventured to sug-
gest the propriety of having the suet skin laid
along side of it, which was no sooner done, than
be proceeded to draw from its hiding place the
other shoe.
"IIere, boss" said he, "you must decide the
bet; say honestly, which of the two shoes is the
worst"
"Well guess Pm fairly sucked in this time
said the boss, pushing the Cavendish and shin.
Iplaster towards the rightful owner, and throwing
a nine pence towards the Youngest apprentice
The boy needed no farther instruction as to his
duty, but was off in the twinkling Of bedpost
and returned with quart of black-strap.
After all hands had sufficiently regaled them
selves, the shrewd Yankee put his sticks togeth
er, and bidding the bossa hearty goodbye, starteC
again on a tramp, very we'll satisfied with the
| forenoon's work.

Powers of the general Government.

at is we'll known there have always been
those among us who wish to enlarge the powers
of the general government; and experience
would seem to indicate that there is a tendency
on the part Of this government to overstep the
boundaries marked out for it by the constitution.
Its legitimate authority is abundantly sufficient
for all the purposes for which it was created; and
its powers being expressly enumerated, there
can be no justification for claiming any thing be-
yond them. Every attempt TO exercise power
beyond those limits should be promptly and firm
ly opposed. d."-Jackson.
''But its real duty that duty the performance
of which makes a good government the most
precious of human bessings,-is to exact and
enforce system of general laws commensurate
with, but not exceeding, the objects of its estab-
lishment, and to leave every citizen and every in
tcrest to reap, under IFS benign protection, the
reward of virtue, industry, and prudence. Yam
Buren,

Home market huntbuggery.
FACTS FOR FARMERS.

Much is said by the wings about furnishing
"home market" for our western produce. To
show the utter absurdity of such an idea, the E.
lyra Republican adduces the following conclu-
sive facts and fgures:--
According to the census of lS40, there were
81 ,342 persons in the United States engaged in
the manufacture ofwoollens Many of these are
women and children. Allowing ten bushels of
wheat to each person, land the estimate is lib
eral one,) they would consume 2l3,342 bushels.
By the same census we find that Franklin coln-
ty raised 243,99l bushels of wheat, and Colum-
biana AS, 1874 bushels. Now let us look at fig
ures.
Amount consumed by woollen manu-
factures 2l3,342
Amount produced by Franklin Co. 243,991
substracted leaves surplus, so,671
Thus ONE COUNTY in Ohio can supply all
the manufactures of woollen goods in the Uni
ted States and have 30,67l bushels to spare!
But further. The total numcer Of persons en-
gagged in the manufacture of cotton, as appears
from the same census is 49, Allowing
each person TO consume, as above, 10 bushels, it
would amount to 72I, 100 bushels per annum.
The surplus wheat Of Ohio alone amounts annu-
ally to over 100000 bushels. This is wheat
raised to SELL Now let US look at it.
Amt used by woolen manufac'rs, 2l3,342
Amt used by cotton do 72l,l9O
Total amount, 1884, ,532
SuDstract this from 100000 and we have
IL ,065 ,468 bushels SURPLUS!
And where is this grain to find market if
not abroad? Talk of ''HoME CoNsUMPTIoN.n 1t
is absurd. Ohio can twice supply all the home
market in the Union. We must export grain or
be ruined. This cannot be done with prohi-
bitory tariff, such as we now have. Farmers,
what shall be done?

PENNSYLVANIA ALL RIGHT.--In addition to the
news from all parts of the Old Keystone State,
we extract the following from letter ordering a
list of Statesmans for subscribers in Somerset
county. The writer says:
"The cause is prospering in this county, and,
Notwithstanding Harrison and Ogle had 100 OF
majority, we can elect our candidate to Con-
gress this fall, and reduce their majority 800 or
900 The cry is all for Polk, Dallas, Muhlen-
burg and Texas, and Pennsylvania for 10000 for
the whole Democratic ticket"

triumphant progress Of the Democracy

"The various occurrences of national exis-
tence have every where turned to the advantage
of Democracy; all men have aided it by their
exertions: Those who have intentionally labored
in lis cause, and those who have served it unwit-
tingy; those who have fought for it, and those
declared themselves its opponents,-haye all
been driven along in the same track, have all La
bored to one end, some gnoran1y and some un-
hand of God. The gradual Development of
the equality of conditions is therefore provden-
tia fact, and it possesses all the characteristics
of Divine decree: it is universal, it is durable,
it constantly eludes all human interference, and
all events as we'll as all men contribute to its
progress."-De TOcqucriIe.

The SeditiOn Law.

The Bennington, (Vt) Gazette of the 9th inst
says
"Forty-four years this day, our grandfather,
ANTHONY HASWELL, Editor of the Vermont
Gazette, was liberated from jail, after having
been confined two months, and paying $262,23
fine and costs, under the Sediton Law. This
fine has been refunded, with interest, at the late
session of Congress, to the heirs of the said
HasweIl As theie is to be an attempt to re-
vve the Alien law of John Adams, if the feds
come into power, may we not anticipate the re-
val of its twin sister, the Sedition law? 1t is
well to keep these things in memory, in order
to understand what Federalism was, and what
modern whiggery would be, if it could have uH-
divided sway. In 1900 it was fine and impris-
onment 10 speak disrespecilully of the powers
that were, and 10 canvass freely the acts of gov
eminent exposed one TO the inconvenience of
loss of property and incarceration in dungeons.
"A glorious land of liberty this in those days of
federal rue--denominated ''the reign of terror"
much like the liberty enjoyed in the banner
Wing State of Rhode Island, where they inn
prison man for life for suffering himself to be
elected Governor under Constitution adopted
by an undoubted majority of the adult male ci-
tizens of the State, in place of royal charter!
Would we restore "the reign of terrorw Then

Low prices of Farmers Produce.

The Argus did not assert EEthat the Tariff re-
duces the price of produce" This is one OF
those fancy sketches so frequently found in the
Eve. Journal, but the Argus did say that the pri-
ces promised to the farmers in 40 have not been
the hardy tillers of the soil are
more poorly remunerated now, than ever. On
the contrary, we also remarked that the promise
of"better times" to the manufacturer, had been
realized. He is dividing 10 per cent by the op-
Grafton of that law when the farmer IS dividing
but 3. This inequality we pointed out, as seri-
ously unfortunate, and extraordinary even in the
past history Of agricultural abundance in this
country.
With the assumption of recklessness the Eve
Journal insinuates that there would be no manu-
featuring ,rhaterer, unless the Tariff remains
precisely as 1t is. Was there no manufacturing
in '32, 49, '3S, '39 and 40, when the tariff was
lower than now, and when farmers received far
better prices than they do in IA? These facts
are history, yet we cannot say that manufacturers
divided as much then, as they do now. Profits
were moderate. Yet it is certainly important
that the farmers should thrive as well as the man
ufacturers. The present inequality in their re.
muneration, is seriously to be deprecated The
action OF congress has confessedly added to the
profits Of one, while il has not added to the othel

A USEFUL PLANT.--The Hon. MIR. Ellsworth
says the sunflower isdestined peahaps to become
one of the most valuable agricultural products.
One hundred pounds Of the seed afford forty
pounds Of oil. The refuse ofthe seed after ex-
preston furnishes an excellent food for cattle;
from the leaves Of the plant cigars are manufac-

The Ohio Democracy have taken tho
Charging Step.

Never since the days when Old HICKORY was
the favorte candidate of the people, has the
Ohio Democracy displayed so much spirit and
determination. Polk, Dallas and Tod will sweep
the State by majorities of thousands, if not tens
of thousands. Ohio need no longer be set down
as doubtful--she is democratic aud will 20 prove
herself at the ballot-boxes.

MR.. BANCRoFps LETTER.

We give (says the Globe) the admirable con
densation of the questions in controversy be-
tween Federalism and Democracy, contained in
DIR. Bancroft's letter accepting the nomination to
the chief magistracy Of Massachusetts,, with ex-
olting pride. Let US compare the lofty, liberal
spirit which anmates this letter--the fine aud
convincing reasoning which is happily interviewer
in what seems to be simple sentiment-the
chaste elegance and brevity which characterize
the style-the kindly patriotic feeling which per
vades the whole; ;--compare this short letter with
all that the champion of federallsm,. paniel
Webster, has said and done, and we see the con
trast, which, while it must endear Democracy to
every human heart that is honest, must exalt its
pride in the man who is now called forth in Mas
sachusetts to sustain its cause
