THE CLAY FAMILY.

The wings are determined to make something GU,
OF the Cays; but the Earring dscords of that family
must first be healed, before they can progress har.
moniously. The last Ohio State Journal has the
following.
&C. M. CLAY.-Goaded to madness by the pro.
ceedings of the enemies who surround him, and un.
der mistaken idea that his feelings and views have
been widely misrepresented and misunderstood
Cassius M Clay has made some illusions to Henry

for him, and his name should not have been dragged
into the columns Of the True American The

the labors of Cassius M. Clay, and they wish him
success-the assurance they have given him on al
occasions"
The following from c. M Clay's late "appesl, =
we presume is the offensive reference alluded to-:
"When at last, however, serious apprehension

however, some clothing such decency required, ssas

to the town; and many father and mother rejoiced
10 find their children, who were dearer to them than
ever from the dangers they had escaped, alive al
though it was impossible to hide from them the fact
that they had been seriously and grossly injured"
"What a frightful picture is this, of town car

Such was the fate from which New Orleans was
snatched, when the glorious old man, whose loss we
now deplore, stood at the head Of his Western
marksmen, and poured storm Of American ven-
geance on the miscreants, whose noblest aspirations
were based upon the vest motives that ever stimu-
lated pirates and banditti.
If any thing can add to the satisfaction resulting
from the victory Of New Orleans, il is to be found in
the fact that two or three of the regiments which
were slaughtered on that occasion formed part of
the storming party at Badaoz! The justice of Heav-
en-, though late, yet was certain.
The foregoing is but specimen of the conduct Of

Boston, If he could there obtain six cents per h. for
the same cotton that would only realize ivc cents II
sent to Liverpool Again: the -four dealer at New
York would not ship his -four to Havana, South
America, or England, il he could procure better
price by selling Il at homo. Competition, therefore,
must always reduce the price to the home consumer to
rate equal TO the nett price received abroad after all
charges are deducted;--if il were otherwise, man
would voluntarily be throwing away portion of his
goods by sending them to distant market. Again:
the manufacturer Of cotton domestic piece goods
will never export such goods to Brazil the Cape of
Good Hope, and China--which they do in large
quantities-to receive lower prices than those which
can be obtained at home. It is, however, seriously
asserted that they do. Were \ true that such a
combination existed TO keep up the home price,
under the protection of the tariff, by Withdrawing
portion of the home produce to foreign markets, and
selling It at lower price, there could no stronger
argument be used to show the selfish injustice of
this protection. Were there only establishment
which had an entire monopoly of the trade of the
States, the East India Company had here Of tea,
then such plan would be possible; but when we
consider that there numerous manufacturers, all
competitors for the best market and the best prices,
il is impossible. If the price at home for domestic
cotton goods was higher than could be obtained in
Brazil or China, what manufacturer would volunta-
rily export his goods to the worst MARKET We
speak of general practice, and not Of accidental
While the American manufacturers then, meet those
Of England, Germany, and France, in Brazil and
China, and in some things successfully compete
with them, what benefit protective duty be in
their own market at home, against those with whom
they successfully compete in neutral markels'
Then what becomes of the proposal Of New
Hampshire to protect all equally' More than ninety
ps per cent. Of the population cannot be protected
by any law that can be made and protection to the
remaining fraction of the community is double in
justice to the great majority But then there is the
question Of revenue, which, with the indirect and
ultimate evil effects of protection to the classes to
whom it applies we will consider in another article.
Meantime, il is clear that protection principle is
either imperative and therefore useless or, if OPP
erative, great evil and injustice.

Now this sugar, which costs on board the vessel,

selling in New York at 9 cents--an advance of 4
cents over the Havana price. Deducting the duty
leaves II cent for profits to the importer. This
is the bona de actual difference between the price in
the country of consumption and that of production.
Il has no reference to past future prices, but is
the actual existing difference between the cost in
New York and cost in Havana. II requires two
pounds of this Havana sugar to produce pound

than the foreign refner. The duty on foreign re-
fined sugar is cents, leaving only cent actual

The consequence has been, that from an export of

the trade has pershed 22l5,5l7 lbs foreign refined
was imported last year The people of the United
States are paying tax of IS, 626 81 per annum, to

Hams and bacon

OF all these articles America produces far more
than she consumes, and has TO find foreign mar
ket for an increasing surplus. The price of these
articles at home must therefore, be determined by
that in the open markets Of the world; and il is
therefore impossible, by any act of legislation, or
by any import duty, TO raise the price Of such arti
cles. But what a small portion of the American
public, then, is 1t possible to benefit by protec-
ton The whole Of the agricultural community
the producers of corn fruit, butter, cheese, provs-
ions, seeds, hops, tallow, and wool; the entire
States, forming by far the most powerful and i'm
portant commercial influence Of the Union, which
produce cotton, rice, and tobacco; and, moreover,
even the manufacturers of domestic cotton goods,
cordsge candles, soap, nails, and naval stores the
lead miners and the o-deaers, ARE all beyond the
power Of the law to protect, by import duties; for
they all depend foreign market for the sale Of
their produce. Who, then, are lefti By the CEN
sus Of 1870, out Of an entire population Of II, 069
Asa, only 791 ,545 were engaged in manufactures
and trades, as distinguished from commerce, and
15,203 in mining. Now, even bx small por-
ton of these are within the pale of protec-
ton. Of this number, all who are engaged
as manufacturers of those articles produced in ex-
cess, and all who under the head Of Trades are
employed in the mere sale, retail or Wholesale, of
commodities, must be deducted and there will then
be left number not equal to per cent of the whole
population, whom il is possible to benefit by pro-
tive duties; and the remaining IS per cent are in

their surplus produce, by the encouragement it
gives to the import of goods from other countries,
which would otherwise be enabled to take such
produce in larger quantities.
But il is commended, by many of the advocates of
protection in the United Siates that even those who
export a considerable portion OF their produce are

THE COST OF PROTECTION.

The population Of the United States is about
20 600 600, to all Of whom sugar is necessary ar
ticle, and for the procurement Of which all Of them
are compelled to part with portion of the proceeds
Of their industry. OF the 90 900 900 people Of the
United States who consume sugar, about 500 are
employed in its production in the State of Louisi-
ana. The sugar they make is of an inferior quail
ty incapable Of refining into loaf sugar; and to pro-
duce that inferior sugar costs actually than to
produce suitable sugar in Cuba or Brazil. That is
to say, on the extent of land, moro labor has
to be expended to produce the same quantity of
weak sugar, than in Cuba to produce strong arti-
Gle. This is owing to the difference in climate and
soil, and can never be altered. Now, in order to
enable 500 men to raise sugar in Louisiana, in de-
spite of the DEGREES of nature the COM
pels 90 600 Of people to pay tax Of ~ cents
per pound on all the sugar they consume. The

gar goes to the planters. The consumption of su-
gar in 1874 was as follows:
