E'en on the edge that wrought her death,

To smile and bless the hand that spurns,
To see the blnw, TO feel the pain,
And render only love again!

New HAMPSHIRE MILITIA. Among the last
acts of the recent session of the Legislature of
New Hampshire, was the passage Of new mi

them according to the old law, except that in

In turning 10 the table explanatory Of the tobacco
trade, we lind most extraordinary coincidence in
al the facts Just explained in relation to the effect o
high and ow duties upon the increased exports and
PRICE OF cotton, and that the identical results attend
the tobacco trade.
The annual average value per hogshead Of tobse-
90 exported from 1921 TO 1924 was $40; from 1925
TO 1889 u fH to S65 per hosshead; from 1888 to
1912 u again rose up TO SO per hogshead from 643
To lo45 1t again teH down TO $50 70 per hogshead
some may suppose that the quality OF the crop may
explain this but IN preparing the tables many years
are embraced IN each period, as to include the
exstence OF high and low tariffs and il is fair TO in
fer that suaes would frequently affect the esti
mates on one side as on the other. The average
number of hogsheads exported, and the average
price during the several periods, per hogshead, all
stand out boldly IN the tables in condemnation OF
the oppression inflicted upon the tobacco planter by
high duties. - '' =
will conclude this view Of the subject by inv-
ting attention to other statistical statement rela
tive TO the Hour trade which Is equally interesting
as those already noticed and fully as instructive 10
The farmers. II will be found, on examining the fol.
lowing table relating TO fsur that nding
the boosted demand Of home market for bread
stuffs, which the advocates Of protection alleged
would be created during the operation Of high du-
ties, yet strange TO say, during their existence we
exported annually on an average greater number OF
barrels OF -four, and reduced prices than we did
during the period Of ios duties.

promise bill, and ths third period, embracing the
operation OF the bill passed in 1912
The year l6i3 was omitted, because OF the change
made by Congress in the fiscal year at that time,
which slightly strengthened the case against the
present law. II is perceived that during the third
period, under the operation Of this oppressive tariff
OF 1892, our Imports have greatly taisn OF, as COM
pared with their condition In the second period du-
ring the continuance Of the compromise bill. The
decrease IN our annual average imporations in the
third period, from what they were during the sec
ond period, is S22,538, $50. Can any impartial
man look at the increase In our imports and ex-
ports as stated ~ table c, and compare them with
tile great decios exhibited Ia table ID, and not adj
nit the blightng effect the high tariff Of Is42 has
exercised upon our commerce., Here are Official
facts, contrasting in the strongest manner the in

elevated in price by this 40 per cent duty on the
foreign fabric 25 per cent This, we think If any
thing, is below what the facts will warrant Then
an addition OF IS per cent TO the $3.50, 900 900 Of
American manufactures would swell their value TO
the consumers up TO the enormous sum of 1912
100000. Therefore, insist that protective duty
OF 40 per cent. upon the $50 900 900 of IMPORTS
which compete with our manufactures will nut
about $50, 900 into the federal treasury and full
y s62 500 900 into the pockets OF the manufacturers
in the shape Of greatly increased prices. This Is
the true reason, IN my opinion, why the manufArtu-
rers enthusiastic In behalf Of protection. But
the community pays this enormous tax, and the
manufacturers receive il. Upon no other rational
ground they contend that reduction OF the tariff
Of i542 will seriously injure their profits But why
should not the price Of manufactures be regulated by
the laws OF trade, like the prices Of all shsr com
moditiesi Why should the latps Of Consyss, be In
voked 10 give them high prices, when The lalcs Or
commerce fail 10 do Il? We propose 10 revoke this
Legislative franchise which they have been allowed
To enjoy very unjustly that is, the privilege under
these protective duties Of reaping legislative prices
In addition 10 what the fair laws Of commerce would
grant them; because laws should be ~sed for TO
Increase prices above what the laws Of trade afford
for that only be done by forcing tho people 10
pay for what they purchase.
Bu, ifit could be demonstrated that protective du-
ties imposed no tax on the eonsumera for the benefit
of those engaged in manufactures, yet there are, be-
sides this, conclusive reasons against the system,
amply sufficient TO condemn it in the estimation of
all just and unparalleled persons. Congress select
ed the system Of mpost taxation to raise rspsmue to
defay the ,rpeass, Of this government, and with
further view of regulating commerce, Bur no one
will contend that TO regulate means TO create the art
ces Of trade, and still less place insuperabe bari
srs across the channels Of commerce.. Yet protec-
tive tariff bill virtually accompanies both In order
TO show its extraysgant character invite the aten-

This table, setting forth the average annual ex-
port value and price Of cotton for the periods indica
ted from 1921 to l845, proves the singular exact
with which this greatest of agricultural staples
rises or falls as the duties upon imports 60 up or
do,on The present very iow prices should induce
the planter to inquire into the that produce such
injurious results II cannot be ascribed to oper pro-
ducton, for that has been progressing since 1921;
and by casting the eye over the table, il will be
plainly seem that though the quantity regularly in
creased, yet, as the tariff policy vibrated from high
to ioo duties, the price Of cotton also vlbrated III ex
act unison, from high to low Look at the increased
supplies Of cotton from 1895 TO 1892, and note the
fall in prices during that time, and then look at the
increased supplies from 1892 to 1912, and mark the
rise in prices in the latter period. But as as
Congress PASSED the high tariff bill Of 1942, behold
how the price of cotton has faiien. From 1925 to
1892 there was an increase the cotton crop OF al
most rs per cent and the price fell from ~ cents
per pound which Il maintained during the four pre-,
ccdng years down to ii cents per pound. But
from 1899 TO 1912 there was similar increase OF
about rs per cent IN the crop, but the price rose,
nevertheless, few mills per pound From ID 70
IS45 there was still about the same increase OF 70
per cent in the crop, but the price again teH TO-
cents per pound Certainly IN both instances under
high duties the cotton CROP as there was about the
regular rate Of increase maintained, should, under
all the boosted advantages Of the home market, al
least have sold as high as il did under the descending
duties from 1888 to 1s42

This Is an interesting statement to the consumers.
We find that, during the administrations Of Jackson
and Van Buren,, S94,2O47 l9 "a of tar was remiited
on ten leading articles That from 1880 to 184l, it
is shown by the next preceding table, that an aggre-
gate amount Of $3.50 062 SAL 80 of taxes were
mtted. Yet in the face Of such facts some gravely
question the salutary influences of the compromise
bill, As natural and certain result OF these great
reductions of duties, commerce revived, and by its
resusctating influences infused life and prosperity
all over the country. Lest there may be some
doubt still upon the point have just argued, will
cite one other evidence from the official documents
in another table prepared at the Treasury Depart
ment:

1925 10 1889, from 1884 10 1842, and from 1643 10

ing the profits made by lhe wealthy capitalists
gagged IN manufacturing, and NOT, as they pretend,
With the sole view of fostering American labor.
No one will question ,hs, the tariff was increased
and reduced at the time and during the periods ind-
Gated. But as the most, sTikipg period--lhat be-
tween 1888 and l042-is the one most likely TO be
assaied, will prove that the duties during that en-
tire period were annually greatly reduced; but to
accomplish this, shall rely upon estimates and ta-
bles made out at the Treasury Department, and
therefore call attention to the following:
