Railroad Company, making ten cargoes that
have been received"
| 80 the thing goes on, and so il will continue
to 90 On, while our evasve and delusive sys-
tenn Of protection continues. Great Britain,
reactlng from her plethora Of production In rail
road iron, which had been stimulated by the
railway mania prevailing there not long ago,
can now send her superfiuous stock to the Uni
ted States; and as the duties under our present
system fall in proportion TO the fall Of prices in
voiced abroad, our own manufacturers Of iron
find themselves liable to be swamped under an
avalanche OF these importatiOns, and they have
found. To their bitter cost, that the frai barrier
of the tariff of 1876 affords nothing more than
the mockery of protection.
Every cargo Of iron imported into the United
States from England or Wales represents what?
1t represents all the labor employed in the pro-
duction of the iron ore from the native mines;
it represents all the labor employed in the man
ufacture of the iron; it represents all the bread
stuffs and provisions necessary to the susten-
ance of the aborers in both branches of labor !;
it represents all the profits derived from all
this preceding industry, all the profits Of
freighs, all the profits of commissions, all pro
fits of whatsoever kind that may accrue from
the employment of agricultural, manufacturing,
and commercial industry in connexien with the
production and the transportation Of the iron
forming the cargo which comes 10 our shores TO
be used in the construction of a railroad which
may run through region Astounding in iron ore.
All the profits of labor Of every kind embodied
and represented in this imported iron are not
only realized in Great Britain, but such reali-
zation involves also displacement Of American
industry to an equivalent extent.

Fatal ARRAY nj memphis, Tennessee.

On Saturday evening, June Sth, the case OF the
Farmers and Merchants bank came up before
court, the part of DR.. j. Fowkes and others, that
the assets of the bank should be placed under their
control The motion resisted by General Coe,
as attorney for a portion Of the creditors. The
general read communication, previously, signed
by King Trigg, To the effect that such resistance
on his part would be treated by them as private
and personal matter. The argument deferred
TO some other day.
Messrs Coe and Cornell left the court room, and
were met by Trigg and his friends when per-
sonsl assault occurred. Pistols were fired, and in
the melee Coe shot and killed Trigg. A general
fight followed, when Coe attacked by three diff
ferent parties and shot in the back. He fell NOR
tally wounded. Others became engaged in the
ARRAY, and man named Gaines closed in a contest
with Connel, both falling TO the ground, evidently
seriously injured. The greatest excitement pre-
vailed.
Such is the account we find in the newspapers
that have come TO hand. While we are panied by
its perusal, cannot suppress the indignant emo
tions that arise within us. Why should life be in
securei Why should the laws ofTennessee be out
ragedi We call upon the good men of Tennessee
to arise and demand that the laws recorded upon
their statute books be respected and implicitly
obeycd. They owe il 10 their own security, to the
welfare Of their children the fame Of their Com
monwcath, TO the principles of humanity, and to
the laws Of God. few rash and wicked men are
permitted 10 do such deeds would disgrace an
age of barbarisD and because forsooth, they boast
Of chivalry and honor, they must go unpublished.
