PIss.--Hunfs Merchants Magazine contain,
a concise history Of the pin manufacture in this
country, from which we learn that the Amer
lean Pin Manufacturing Company" at Water
bury, Conn, and the Howe Manufacturing
Company" at Birmingham, Derby Conn,
now manufacture nearly all the pins consumed
in the United States. There is party at
Poughkeepsie doing a limited business, and q
small amount imported. Since the depression
Of 1916 TO 184s, the business Of the two COM
panies named has been reasonably profitable,
having been rendered so rather by reducing the
cost Of production and the expense Of selling,
than by the small advance in price which ba,
been realized. Both companies manufacture
the wire for making their pins. During the last
year, the two companies have used principally
Lake Superior copper for making their wire
their joint consumption of copper amounting to
about $50 tons per annum. The present weekly
production Of pins by the two companies may
be stated ut about eight tons.
The present price OF American solid-headcd
pins is believed not to exceed two-thirds OF the
lowest price at which imported pins OF equal
weight we're ever afforded before the manufac-
ture was introduced; and for service, they are
undoubtedly better than the article Of which
they have taken the place. 8

cingy at him, the protection Of the Law is

With impunity by him, and the meanest tyranny

We yesterday evening saw on Seventh street a
good and sensible-looking girl, about nine years
old, with . basket on her arm, into which she
was gathering chips and pieces Of wood in front
Of new building, while her bare red feet were
nearly frozen. The same degree of suffering
inflicted upon any person in any other manner
would not have been tolerated a moment. Yet
the shivering child was UNDECIDED, or they who
saw her condition readily explained it by saying
that her parents were poor. Should not the
law and the custom under it make it the duty
Of an officer Of police to 60 to that child's home
with her and ascertain the reason Of her cruel
exposure, and to make prompt report, in order
that either crime, idleness, and hard hearted
ness should be punished, or pinching want re-

dom, its intelligence, and its abundance, the

parents to infict the curses Of their wicked
ness upon their unofending and helpless
childrenf Blessed as we are by Providence
with every good gift-cherished as we are by
the Congress Of the nation, at whose command
vast sums Of money are here annually distrib-
uted, and our city beautifed and adorned-is
it not o burning shame that we do not adopt a
irmer and more decided course Of policy with re-
ference to the poor and helpless and resolve that
there shall here be no suffering from restitution?
Before it is too late we should see to this
Every ward in our city should be subdivided
into districts, and every district should be under
the supervision Of citizen residing within it,
who should be able at any moment to describe
the condition Of all the poor within it. In some
instances it may prove necessary to remove the
father to the workhouse; in others, little fuel,
little clothing little bread, and o few visits
from physician, may save the life Of mother
or her child; while in other cases the separa-
ton Of the children from one or both parents is
demanded by every consideration Of humanity.

RELICS or THE BARBARoUs PAsT.-The State
OF North Carolina is, in some particulars, very
far behind the rest Of civilization. Ear-crop-
ping, whipping, the pillory, and such-ike
means Of punishment, still disgrace her statute
books. We notice that VIM. Tunnel, youth,
was convicted Of forgery in Halifax county last
week, and sentenced to stand in the pillory one
hour, to receive nine lashes on the bare back,
and be confined in jail six months. He is the
adopted son Of Mr.. Isaac Scarborough, Of
Edgecombe county, on whom the forgery was
committed. Why do not some Of the good men
Of that State take up the subject Of reform in
these matters : The cause needs only oou.

ington for his home in Missouri, where he will
remain until after the August elections. It is
known that the anti-Benton portion OF the
Democracy Of that State, comprising about
third OF the party We believe, have proposed to
reunite with the Benton Democrats. Against
this Mr.. Benton protests, and declares they
shall be driven into the Wing party, rather
than effect such coalition. He will attend to
the matter in person, and devote his whole
energy, from this time out, to the success and
publication Of the Democratic party in Mis-.
