The national era. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1847-1860, 1856-11-13
CANNOT DO IT!

A friend suggests, that if we could only put
the Era at 81 a year, the list could be doubled.
Very likely; but, if trebled or quadrupled at
such price, it would be ruin to us. Once for
all, We say, the Era at 81 year would not pay
its necessary expenses. The Tribune, Times,
and Post, are furnished TO clubs of 90 to one ad-
dress, at 81, but only because the ample adver-
tisements in their Dailies more than cover the
loss thus sustained. We have no such sdver-
tisements; and as to the advertisements of the
Executive Departments, they are denied TO US
In violation of law. Besides, as we have often
said, the cost of printing in Washington is
higher than in any other city in the Union.
Not a cent less can we take than the terms
printed below. If the friends of Freedom and
Free Labor cannot come up to these, in sup
port Of such paper as the Era, the only one
representing Republican principles at the Cap
ital of the Nation, there is no use in attempt
ing to support any such paper here. II news
papers elsewhere will answer all the demands
of the cause, be it so. Let the ground that we
have gained here, at this central and COM
manding point, be Observation-Disclosures be-
cause the Era cannot be afforded in clubs at
81, instead of Sl.50. The masses have eleva-
ted ideas OF the importance of our movement.
Who, for the sake Of fifty cents a year, will con-
sent to the abandonment of a paper which
pioneers the way to Free Discussion in the
District of Columbia, and is the only organ in
Washington City, on the soil of Slavery, through
which the representatives of Freedom can be
heard and INDICATED?
Meantime, we ask nobody to subscribe for
the Era, who thinks he can spend his money 10
better purpose elsewhere. So long as it shall
be generously supported by those who know its
worm, W. shall continue it. If the time come
~hen IL snai. Il to command sufficient ON
port through It's lep' --I-Orfpi Sns, --..u a
sufficient circulation to make il a positive, de-
cided quantity in politics, we shall stop it, and
leave the field here to be monopolized by the
organs Of the Pro-Slavery Interest. Our friends
must Undergo great change before that event
can happen.
Hitherto the Era has commanded a far larger
permanent circulation than has ever been Sc
cured by any newspaper in Washington city, of
course much more extensive field of infu-
ence. 1t remains to be seen whether. with the
sudden and unexampled development of the
Republican movement, its sphere of action is
to be circumscribed. We do not suppose that
such is to be the case but, should it be. il will
not be the first time that the pioneers of
great movement have been forgotten and thrown
aside, in the day of its power.

THE SUGAR MONOPOLY.
From the New York Journal of CONNER

From the New York Journal Of Commerce
Sugar Crop Of the SOtah.-It was wise and
prudent legislation in Congress which brought
about the appropriation of some seventy. five
thousand dollars to procure fresh supplies of
sugar cane for planting in the sugar States
irsxt season (; for, while our demand for the
article has increased with the great increase of
our population, the extent of the sugar crop

with dozen or fifteen seamen, constitute the
ships company. The object is an important
one, and we are assured that it has been placed
in the hands of a young and efficient navy of.
hcer, who will accomplish it in season for next
years crop.
This is the style in which pretended advo
cate of Free Trade talks about an abominable
monopoly. The price of sugar is going up,
up, up, because the few sugar planters in the
South cannot supply the demand, and because
Congress, controlled by miserable Class In
terest, will not repeal the taxes which reduce
the supply of foreign sugars. The obvious,
honest remedy is, to take off the duties on
sugar, and let it come in free, just as coffee
and tea. The poor then could obtain their
sugar at reasonable prices, without paying
an enormous tax to the fifteen hundred gu
gar planters. But, instead of this simple and
effectual policy, the Federal Government, in
defiance OF all sound maxims of political econ
omy, keeps up the taxes, plays into the hands
of the Planting Monopoly, appropriates money,
and even uses the Navy, for the purpose of
supplying the want of thrift in the planters-in
other words, takes the money of the People to
keep up monopoly which levies a tax on ev-
cry pound of sugar they buy!
When the so-called Democracy shall set it's
face against this abomination, we will give it
some credit for its pretensons to Free Trade
but not before.

insure the permanence of their rights in the
newly-discoVered islands.
The evidences are abundant, and to all ap.
pearsnces entirely reliable, that these islands
really contain large deposits of this valuable
fertilizer. In few months, at latest we NAV
expect to receive further evidence, in the shape
of cargoes of the material itself The whole
country is deeply interested in the success of
this enterprise, which can hardly fail to largely
increase the crops in all the Atlancic States,
BY furnishing more abundant supply of an
article which is every year more and more
necessity to the agricultural interest. 1t is ex-
ceedingly unfortunate that the carelessness or
perversity of Commodore Mervine thwarted
Secretary Dobbin's purpose of giving to the
world an authentic survey of the American
guano islands. But why will not the Secretary
order this duty performed by some more enter
prising officer, in a vessel better adapted to the
purpose than the Commodore's steam frigate !?
Surely the small force required could nowhere
else be employed to better advantage.
