have ever contended that high protection
tended to the great injury of that section,
whilst its benefits Injured entirely TO the cap
italist at the east, who were engaged in man
factures. And in view ofsuch as its ef
fects, they have ever opposed lis imposition
as unequal, unjust and, in measure, great
eror less oppressive upon the great agrcullu-
raj interests of the country. This feeling
ard appreciation appear TO be spreading and
carrying conviction 10 those who have here
tofore been the advocates of high tariffs
The following is an extract from an article
from the Ohio State Journal, leading wh;g
paper in the west.
H'The capacity Of these North Western
States 10 furnish supplies of provisions, is
yet very inadequateiy understood, even by
our fellow citizens of the East. All that is
requisite, is proper incentive 10 call our
cur resources, aud our capacity for supplying
breadstufis aud provisions, bids defiance to
competition. That capacity is just beginning
10 be developedj and our Eastern neiehbors
regard our present attainments with admira-,
tion. Give US but fair swing the world
for market and no restrctions---and VIC
might almost undertake 10 furnish the world
with bread. Az a producing State' Ohio is
PROFESSIONALLY h advance of her sister states
Of the North West; but she has never been
taxed 10 one fourth, probably not tenth OF
her capacity. What then will be the result
when the whole of this North West shall be
brought inte full culiivationG One thing is
certain; if England does not protect her
own agricultural lntsrests, we will supply her
market with bread But
we cannot we'll efford, merely for her ac-
commodation or caprice, 10 change our poll
cy too frequently"
The "restricttons" have been, 10 consid-
cradle extent, removed by the repeal of the
English corn laws, and by the tariff of 1916.
The beneficial result of these coincident
measures has been felt throughout the world,
and no where with greater force than by the
agiicnlurisis of the West They see more
clearly that their true interests lie in the tru-
ly democratic measures of reform in com
mercial regulations, which look 10 the benefit
Of the whole people, and not to that of sin
gle class.-Bnfalo Pilot.

The INDrAN1ANs AT BuENA VlsrA, ,---Sur-
geon Chamberlain, in a recent letter 10 the
editor of the Sunday News, relate" the fol-
lowing incident, as illustrative of the power
and influence of Gen. Taylor over the troops
under his command. During the retreat of
the Indianians, Gen. Taylor, riding up to the
rear ofthe retiring regiment thus addressed
them:
"Men-soldiers--fellow countrymen-.-I
fought for you and your country before you
were born. have fought for you when you
were boys. Ihave fought for you since you

THE GREAT INTERESTS OF THE
CoUNTRY-PROTECTlvE TARIFFS.

The Importance Of the agricultural inter-
ests in the country, and the vastness ofits
resources, are becoming more appreciated,
as they are developed by the wants and de-
mands OF Europe. 1t would seem from the
volume of bread stutfs which this demand
has set in motion from the west towards tide
water, that its capabilities were equal TO any
draft that might be made, and that the sup
ply was exhaustlcss. Great Us has already
been the production, the. capabilities ofthe
northwestern country have been taxed to but
comparatively limited extent.
In connection with this vast interest the
subject ola high protective tariff, naturally
suggests itself. The democracy ofthe west

AZTEC RuINs.-Mr. Stanly, tie artist, VINO
accompanied Gen. Kearney to California,
writes as follows:
"Thero has been much speculation in re-
gard to the Aztec remains in the valley OF
Gila. That it has once supported vast
population, we could not doubt, for the rn-
ins of their towns and cities are plainly visi-
BILE for hundreds of miles. Stone founda-
tions are frequently seen covering many
acres; hut, with one exception, we did not
find any building in any degree of preseva-
lion. This was about four miles above the
mouth of the river This building is 60 feet
by 45, three stories high. and is constructed
ofthe adobe, similar to that used in the
houses of New Mexico. Whether these ru-
ins have any connection with those of South
America, is not known. The plains in their
vicinity are covered for miles with broken
pottery of burnt clay, beautifully painted and
ornamented; and this was the only clue
which he had TO the advancement Of the
builders in the mechanic arts. The Pemos
Indians have but very imperfect traditions OF
these remains.' gs8

THE COLLISION OF THE CHESA-
PEAKE AND PORTER.

We said in our last paper that the accident
which recently occurred upon the Like, by
the collision between the steamer Chesa-
peake and schooner John Porter, was as we
thought wholly unjustifable, and attributable
to gross carelessness upon the part of iheof
fcers of the boats. We are confirmed in this
opinion, by several statements since publish
ed by passengers on the Steamer. II is due
to the surviving relatives and friends of the
lost in this lamentable affair, as well as 10
ensure future safety in travelling upon the
lake, that the guilty ones in this calamit! be
properly exposed TO public censure; and hav-
ing seen the distress which this most unfor-
tunate accident has caused in most inter-
estins and now disconsolate family, we con-
slider it duty to expose to the public every
one upon whom rests the responsibility Of
this occurrence.
M. Bradbury, Editor of the Cincinnati,
News, was passenger on the Chesapeake.
Upon his return home, he published, State
ment of the collision, and concluded as fol-
lows;
81 can prove by the best evidence, and
have already taken the necessary steps too
prove it before proper tribunals:
lst. That the collision between the steam
er CuEsArEAKE and the schooner JOHN PoR-
TER was the result of the most criminal care
lessness and through contempt for human
life on the part ofthe officers Of tho former
vessel. The night was bright; the Porter
mad lights both at the bow and stern, and the
Chesapeake ran into her, as "a simple matter
of Lake etiquette, just because she did not
chopse 10 change her course, no matter what
might come in the way.
3D. That, after the collision, the officers
and crew Of the boat, with one or two honor
able exceptions, exhibited neither sense en-
ergy, or manhood proved themselves to be
das,ards, by cowardly deserving the women
and children confded to their charge; and
that a sound and safe canal boat, in "calm
summers morning." would be in very poor
hands, if committedto to the responsibility ola
large majority of them.
Sd. That the boat was an DID, rotten, worn
out, and used up concern; that she was badly
appointed, worse managed, and in all res
poets, a burning disgrace 10 her owners, for
all times to come. While it was known, al
most by everybody acquainted with her that
child could have thrown stone through
her hull, she had but single boat, without
oars, and that ,Ous barely sufficient to sauc
officers and crew.
AND, FINALLY, that, taking all things into
consideration, from beginning 10 end, more
wanton and Infamous disregard ofhuman life
IA more absolute yolatio Of The common
est laws Of humanity---has never been man
ifested by crew, officers, and owners, Of any
vessel that ever floated.n- Seneca Adrerti-
ser.

Take them a,cay, sir, they are porse than
Mericans! Well, as the "b'hoys" would say
that is "some." A Washington correspon-
dent ofthe Philadelphia Pennsylvania says
"a gentleman now in this city, just from
the army of Gen. Taylor, related to me an
incident which deem worthy of 'epettion.
The Gentleman was sitting in the tent of
"old Rough and Ready" in conversation,
when they were interrupted by the appear
ance of young officer who ban'ed the old
General a bundle of newspapers. "Here is
one. General, that has your name up for the
Presidency" "Let me see it, sir The
old General looked at it for some minutes,

"This is curious country Its history

human nature, and the ends of government.
What strange fatality hangs over this un-
fortunate Republic! 'Tis painful TO con,em-

and professors, and in word, all things that
constitute national greatness and puwer-ye,
what does this avail US! We are always
wrong-always criminal in the eyes of Heav-
en- and Earth. We have gone through sew
ell contests, fought hard battles, gained glo-
rious victories. We are nevertheless, wrong,
all the time. Wrong in l776, when opposing
the imhecile Tyrant Of Great Bgitain--so
said the Tories. Wrong in 1919, when we
proclaimed Free Trade and Sailors Rights
and fogged the British second time-so
said the Federalists. Wrong in 1884, when
General Jackson threatened France, for the
indemnities. Wrong in the Black Hawk
war. Wrong in the Creek war. Wrong in
the Seminole war. And now again wrong
in the war Of Me xico--so sag many Wigs.
Pray tell us, when will America ever be
right where there is fighting to be done? o
We do really, sincerely, anxiously, eplor-

hope, wish, and crave to see our country
right once before we die."
