THE RESULT AND ITS ISSUES.


as we can now see, neither can be Overstated.
The Protection Of Home Industry, as an
ayowed, conspicuous, leading feature of our
National policy, is crushed-prObably for years
possibly forever Whatever may be done in
that line prior to the next crash of the COM
mercial fabric must be the fruit of chahering
and arrangement-the work Of the Stocktons.
Jameses and Clancy Joneses-the make-weight
in some baekstairs Washington intrigue-the
consideration for so many votes in Democratic
Presidential nOrnnatiOn-with which we have
as little inclination as power to NEEDLE. In an
OPEN manly contest for just and beninant
National Policy, we shall ever gladly do what
we may: in any other sort of struggle, We
should be alike out of place and useless. River
and Harbor Improvement may continue to be
feebly and fitfully prosecuted under the rule
Just erected; but only in that spirit Of equiyo-
cation and timidity which does good only by
stealth and would blush TO find it Fame -
out Of the immediate circle of those locally and
palpably benefited by the act. And as to
the Slavery Propaganda, it has now full
swing, and may touch and take as it
! lists If Cuba is not revOutiOnized and
annexed within the ensuing four years,
the leaders of the PrOpaganda-the Rhetts,
/ Wises and Soule's of the day--deem it the pol
1 icy of prudence to wait till the plan is moro
/ fully ripe. What the Flibustiering rabble Of
the cities who fancy that thy are going to take
/ Cuba, may desire or do is of no more cOnsc-
quencc than the cawiag OF So many crows
but the mastcr-spirits of the Propaganda
have only TO say the word and Cuba will be laid
at their feet, with John Van Buren, and Henry
u. Stanton singing hOsannas to the extension of
the area of Democratic Freedom and Progress
with the consequent enlargement of the profits
and scope of Virginia slavc-breeding Theparty
collar which surrounded the neck in the iron
days Of Jacksonian dictatorship now passes I'M.
der the pocket and over the hips and Slavery
may steal al the rest Of our continent without
evoking whisper OF remonstrance from the
Sub-Treasury vault wherein Barburner profess
sions lie awaiting the last stages of nOsomc de-
composition.
Perhaps no man lMs contributed more pow
erfully to produce this result, than Mr. Joshua
II. Giddngs. He has played in the recent Con
gress the role performed with like spirit and
success by james G. Birncy, in 1914. Birncy as
suredth Anti-SlaveV menthat Texas wasmor,
/ Likely to be annexed under the auspices Of Clay
than under those of Polk Giddings has now
persuaded many thousands Of voters WHO were
always Wings until Is, and are still advocates
of Wing doctrines and measures, that Scott is
Cor was) as much the candidate Of the Slavery
Propaganda as Pierce, and that there is no
material difference in the platforms and views
of the two great parties respecting the Tariff
or River and HarbOr improvements And
all this, though not very true, is yet rather
clever, in view OF it's chief evil Mr.. Gidlings
means 10 remain in Congress as long as pos
sible, though his service there has already
outworn the patience OF decided majority Of
his present constituents. To his continuance
it is essential that he be regarded in his dis
trict rs the II. George who only can cope with
the dragon Slavery. But 10 this end it is
essential that Slavery should be- rampant,
aggressive, belligerent, encrosching as it
will be under Democratic and would not BE-
under Wing Administration The doinss Of
the Propaganda are so essential to Mr. Gid
dings that he could hardly refuse to be scrv-
iceabe to the Propaganda. We would no
Judge any man harshly, bur when We see
States like Ohio thrown deliberately into tho
hands of the bittcrest enemies OF Freedom TO.
All, We cannot but feel that So great wrong
is prompted by something else than peculiar
devotion to Right
The Boston Pilot is kindred example Of
deliberate misleading to subserye party ends un-
der pretenSe of peculiar independence of par
~ and especial devotion to truth. The PHO.
is prOfessedly Religious Catholic journal,
and enjoys vide circulation and great In
fluence among Catholic voters. Ii opened the
recent campaign under a mask of disinterested
independence, which it gradually pushed aside
until it became one of the most INSCRIPTIONS
as well as effective partisans of Pierce and King.
We stop not here to expose It's complete mis-
representation Of the entire controversy re-
specting the NewHampshire Anti Catholic
Test aud the action Of parties and politicians
with regard TO it. Ii never allowed IFS readers
TO know by whom or on which side the discus
sion was commenced nor wha, were the ale
cations respecting Gen. Pierce's course which
il proiesSed TO contrOvert and reiate-but let
that pass. In its issue Of Oct. 3D-eirculated

Tariff Question, and discussed i IS follows:
