A subject for tbe Opponents Of protection.

A Subject for the Opponents of Protection.
There is a great depression in the iron bust |
ness in Great Britain, and the depression has
been caused by the falling off in the orders
from America. The extent of these orders in
1853 and 1854, gave great activity to the
trade in England, and advanced prices. Dur
ing the past year the demand from the United
States greatly decreased, and although the
stocks are known to be exceedingly low in this
country, the English manufacturers say they
are receiving no orders from America The
prospects Of their trade is very discouragng to
the English iron masters, and they are devils
ing means to recover their former trade from
the United States. They say that at the pres
ent prices of S45 per ton for bar iron, the
American Iron masters are able to supply
their own markets to the exclusion Of foreign
iron. At the present prices Of labor in Eng
land, the iron masters say they cannot afford
iron at less than S45. To reduce the price Of
iron, the cost Of labor must be reduced, and
this is very inconvenint and difficult matter
to accomplish, while food remains at the pres
ent high prices. To enable the English man
ufacturer to supply our markets, they must
they say, bring the cost of iron down to SAC
per ton at least, and this reduction will be
made, it is thought, at the next convention 0
the iron men. But it is the opinion of ship
pers that the price must be brought down tt
S35 to induce an active demand from Ameri
ca. It will appear from this, that by Ameri
can competition the English iron master vii
be compelled to deduct so per ton from hi
iron in order to sell it in our markets, and pa,
the duties-repeal the duties on foreign iron
and the English iron masters would immedi
ately put his price up to the amount Of the du
ties taken off; for the price of foreign iror
with the duties paid on it, is governed by tn
price of American Iron. Repeal the dute
and the limit OF prices would be still the pric
of our own product. All we take off the du
, ties would be added to the price of the iron i
England and go into the foreign manulactul
ers' pockets, instead of the United State
| Treasury.

~ A new project is on foot for the extern
sion Of the provisions of the reciprocity treaty
to the British West Indies, where trade is
monopolized by Great Britain and her colo
MICS. The movement is certainly one Of much
importance.
If the reciprocity principle could be applied
to the Spanish Colonies, and open free trade
with Cuba, it would create new era in the
shipments of produce from the Ohio and Mis-
sissippi. That Island alone would take as
much from the Valley as now goes from it to
all Europe. 1t would double the foreign ex-
ports of breadstuIS and meats from New Or
leans, and make her city second only to n.
York in her commercial importance. The
West should not cease to urge this subject
upon the government. Free trade with Cuba
/ is better than annexation.

CET The first report that Mr.. JACOB LITTLE,
one Of the ruling spirits at the board, was I'M
able to meet his contracts, created great ex-
citement in Wall street, that gentleman's trans-
actions in bargains haying Of late been
on an enormous scale. Acting under the i'm
preston that we should have a falling mar
ket for some time to come, he has been max
ing sales of stocks deliverable at stipulated
dates; and, as his theory proved a fallacious
one, gradual and steady rise having taken
place instead Of his anticipated decline, he had
of course to fulfill his contracts from day to
day at a very heavy loss, SO much indeed that
just prior to his suspension the daily cash diff
/ ferences which he had to pay averaged fifty OF
sixty thousand dollars, with every Indication
of an increase rather than decrease in the
/ future. The announcement Of the suspension
was accompanied with a proposition to settle
all outstanding contracts at the highest price.

upon him variously estimated at from FIVE
hundred thousand to one million dollars
This failure has reference only to Mr.. Little
stock contracts, his other business going on q
usual.

o. The story abont Fillmore men in the
Senate" is q humbug. There is but one,
Mr.. Sage Of Switzerland, and he is as abso-
lutely fixed against giving the BUCCANEERS
their own way, as any man in the Leglsla-
ture. At least, we learn SO from the best au-
thority ind. Journal
David Crane, the Senator from Floyd coun-
ty is Fillmore man, "tooth and toe nail, =
but he is as firmly opposed to going into joint
ballot in the election of U. s. Senator, as any
of your Republicans, And in this he re-
fleets the sentiments of the American party
of little Floyd" They would rather have
the State unrepresented in Congress for two
years than to have two Democrats elected
n. A. Tribune
1t is evident that it is now the deliberate
determination of the opposition party to stave
off the election of U. S. Senators, and all
other officers elected by joint ballot.

0rF Ireland is rapidly improving in her ag-
ricultural productions and in her social and
political condition. Pauperism has been re-
duced nearly one-thrd in Eve years, and
wages have advanced to an equality with the
rates in England This year the country is
blessed with an abundant harvest. The Bel
fast Mercury says:
The harvest has at length been closed, and
will be admitted on all hands that the turn
out of the fields has proved most abundant
There have been seasons OF no less ample re-
turns in particular departments Of Ireland's
agriculture, but certainly the yield of this
season in every variety Of cereal has never
been equalled.

RELIGIOUS BIGoTRY.-An Irishman named
Ward has been held to bail in GAINESVILLE, Ohio,
for putting the infant of fellow Catholic into
the fire, because its father, who was Catho-
lie, had married Protestant wife, and she re-
fused to have the child baptised in the Catho-
lie Church, of which Ward was a bigoted ad-
herent. He thought the child had better be
burned in this world, than suffer purgatory
in the next. The little sufferer, though bad
Iy injured, was still living.

o. Gen. Shields, who sacrificed himself on
the Kansas bill, was lately entertained at sup
per with Mr.. Douglas in Ontario county, New
York. He said that, as a man, he was OPP
posed to slavery, and were he a citizens Of
Kansas should vote against it; but as Dem
-ocrat, he was in favor of the Kansas bill. Mr..
Douglas also made speech, claiming that he
was opposed to slavery, and wished the peo-
pie Of the territories to have their own way
on the question.

From New Orleans.

We are indebted to the famous Rainbow,
for New Orleans papers Of the 9th. We are
not informed whether this old favorite in the
packet trade, is to return to her former route.
or whether, having been fattered by new
friends, she is about to desert her old patrons
The New Orleans papers announce her as a
regular New Orleans and Louisville packet,
for the. season.
The papers speak of the new evidences of
prosperity of the city and announce that the
house of Duncan, Sherman & Co., have estab-
lshed branch of their bank in New Orleans.
Commodore Vanderbilt was expected in the
city, to arrange new steamship enterprise,
and to prepare for starting the new line of
steamers for Texas. Other large capitalists
were coming to the city from Charleston and
other Southern cities. The reports of the
markets have been anticipated by telegraph.

Swamp Land Frauds.

Recent developments seem now to indicate
beyond doubt, gross frauds on the part of the
present State officers, in regard to the swamp
ditching and the sale Of the swamp lands
Public opinion seems to center on the Auditor
Of State as the principal party in the delin-
quencies, but, after all, he may not be as cul-
pable as other parties that could be named.
We hope the Legislature will appoint a
committee to investigate the whole matter,
and if raseality exists, that it will be distinct
ly pointed out to the public. Let John P.
Dunn, or some other competent man be Sc
lected by the committee, to probe the whole
thing and see who is guilty and who is inno-
cent Justice to all the State officers seems
to require this to be done. and to this course
no reasonable objection can be alleged.
Lat. Jour.
If reports are reliable, Mr. Dunn has had
more to do with the swamp lands than any
other man in the State, and has derived more
profit from their management than any one else,
all we presume in a most honest way. If there
has been any roguery in the matter, we will
vouch that our friend Dunn can put his finger
on it, without looking into the books.
