By the courtesy Of Mr.. J. M. Weston, we have

dates to the 18th inst We find nothing particu-
larry important.
The steamer Philadelphia visited Kingston on
the 18th inst. The cause is given by the Standard
as follows
We are indebted for this visit to an act Of humane
galantryi alike honorable to Capt. Pearson, and to
the brave hearts, his numerous passengers, who
unanimously concuFred with him in its performance.
II appears that lady passenger became SO danger
ously i'll after leaving New York, that her life was
considered in great danger, and that if she should
even survive the voyage, to land her In such con-
dition among all the discomiortS, and In the deadly
climate of Chagres, would be to cut of every chance
of her recovery. Therefore, as soon as 1t was
known that it was desirable to land her here the
passengers unanimously petitioned Capt. Pearson
to alter his course and bear up for Kingston which
he most willingly complied with, and we sincerely
hope the lady will soon be well again.
The works and other buildings on Simon Hill
Estate, were completely burnt to the ground on
Wednesday, the 24th ult, through the carelessness
of four laborers who were employed in carrying off
some bush in a swamp close to the works, and
who had, contrary to directions given them, placed
fire thereto.

KossUTH Nor CoMING.-The New York Sun
day Times says: alt is said that Mr.. Marsh, our
Minister at Constantinope, has applied to the
Porte for permission to Kossuth and his associates
to retire to the United States at the expense of our
Government, and there remain on their parole of
honor not to leave this country for year. This
proposition was agreed to by the English, French
and Austrian ambassadors, but was rejected by
the Hungarians themselves 1t is impossible for
us at this distance, to divine the motives acuatng
Kossuth and his companions in this refusal-proba-
bly, determination that their enemies shall not get
rid of them so easily perhaps Interior views con-
nected with another attempt on the part of the
Hungarians, and a desire to be near the scene of
action to take advantage of all favorable opportun-
ties and, perhaps, Though last not least0 the gal

there is not a shadow of doubt as to the true
answer to be given to this question.
To our tongrowing friends it is one of Sc
rious Importance. 1t is time that they should
rid themselves of the errors resulting from the
idea of incidental protection, and examine for
themselves what would be the effect of an en-
tire repeal of the whole tariff system, and the
establishment of perfect free trade, as it is the
fashion to call the maintenance of the English
monopoly system. If such an examination
should, as it woud, result in satisfying them
that under such system the domestic manu-
facture of cotton goods would be here as impos-
sible as it now is in Ireland, Canada or India,
let them then reflect what would be the price
after Great Britain had secured monopoly of
our market, and then determine for themselves
who it is that now pays the duty. Having so
done, let them seriously ask themselves for an
answer to the question: SIS there any road to
perfect freedom of trade except that which leads
through perfect protection %

LAKE SUPERIOR CoPPER.--The Cliff and Mime

mense masses OF copper ore and the great difficulty
appears to be in getting it from the mines in pieces
small enough for shipment Seven pieces taken
from the Cliff mine weighed 29,S52 pounds, and
four from the Minnesota IL Gal. The masses arc
heavy that it takes teams Of ten, twelve, and
sometimes fourteen horses TO haul them the dis
lance of three quarters of mile from the mines to
the Lake. The copper is too tenacious and com
pact to be broken in pieces in blasting, and IL has
to be cut up with long chsol, three fourths OF an
inch in width by chipping off piece after piece with
a heavy hammer. BY this slow and expensive pro-
these large masses of native copper are cut up

The total repeal of the tariff would close
every mill in the Union. Many may doubt
this, yet such would be the fact, although we
can now manufacture heavy cottons at lower
prices than any people in the world. The first
effect Of such measure would be to close the fur
naces and the mines, the woollen mills and the
hatters' shops, and thus diminish the market for
cottons. The discharged workmen would be
unable to purchase their usual supplies of food,
and thus the power of the farmers to purchase
cloth would be reduced. The price Of cotton
would fall heavily, and the power of the plan
ters TO purchase clothing would be reduced.
The price Of wool would fall heavily, and the
power of the wool-growers to purchase cloth
would be reduced With this immense diminu-
ton in the domestic market, there would be an
immense increase in the supply from abroad, and
the result would be, as we have said, to close
every mill in the Union, north or south, east or
west, not to be reopened until wages should have
fallen to the European level, if even then,
which we deem most unlikely.
The effect Of this would be TO diminish inn
mensely the supply of cotton cloth in the mar
