Ii is remarkable that in everything which America
has been obliged to supply herself with, she has, other
things equal dstanced Europe So, too in every new
branch Of industry that has been protected she has at
tanned ndisputable excellence. Shpbuidng has been
vigorously protected by stringent laws, supposed to lie
at tie root of our national salvation Look at the mag
nfccn results. The general prosperity resulting from
Il system of protection in branches open TO comPet-
on as also lent greatimpetus to departments where

this may be seen in newspapers. We give as good
a paper TIE TRIIUNE, for two cents as The Tunes
does for ten So also in respect of agricultural Gple
ments America could not borrow them, for the axes,
plows and machines in Europe would not answer
for the woik required to be done by our pioneers
In connection with this subject it may be pernently
mentioned that when Col Colt went recently to Eng
land TO set up mandatory of his firearms, he could
not find the necessary workmen there for the fine
parts of the work and was obliged to fetch them from
the United States The same thing happened to the
patentee of the sewing machine. With such evidences
Of the capabilities Of our countrymen in the face of
difficulties, it seems not presumptuous to imagine that
except for the mistaken policy Of pseudo-democracy
and sham free trade, she would measure her strength
equally by this time in all essential things with the
old world and outstrp precedent and apPal prophecy
