II is measure for the benefit of labor,
and though capital may participate in its
advantages, II is prominently the cause OF
the lahoring man, and by proper appeals to
the interests and good sense Of the masses
il can be carried and sustained. There is no
yegion in the Union so deeply interested in
the development of iron manufactures as
that Immediately around Us.
For hundreds of miles to the South, upon
the waters of Green River-upon the banks
of the Ohio--along the Wabash and all its
tributaries-along the canal-upon the line
of every projected railroad leading from us
through all Southern Illinois with which
we have any intercourse, the hills are filed
with the most abundant deposits of iron ore,
and the richest veins of bituminouS coal,
while their sides are covered with dense
forests, affording the most ample means for
manufacturing iron.
The mosto sanguine imagination can
scarcely picture to itself the prosperity and
wealth that would surround this city by a
full development of the resources of this re-
gion for the manufacture of iron. There is
no section combining so completely all the
advantages for the production of iron as
our own.
Here are conferred all the elements OF
wealth-rich ores and inexhaustable sup
plies of fuel for smelling and steam power,
and limestone for huxes, lying side by side
in every hill. Pennsylvania and Missouri
with all their boosted resources for making
iron-do not compare with the country OF
which we are the centre.
Neither of them has so great a stake in
the tariff question as it may effect the IRON
interest as we. One of the first questions
We should present to our candidates for Con-
gress in Southern Indiana, is-Are you in
favor Of a protective tariff for home labor;
and especially are you i'll favor of an in.
crease of duty on coal and iron2
Let this interrogatory be put to the can
didates for Congress in the First and Second
Districts, if no where else in the State
Judge Hovey has ever been, we believe, ;
consistent advocate Of protection TO home
labor. But let us hear from both candi
dates in this district upon that subject Will,
they are now canvassing for an election.

AN act prohibiting the circulation Of

State Of Kentucky afer the first day
Of June next. The act provides that
upon conviction of violating any OF
it's provisions before any county court
Judge, police Judge, or justice OF the

tense may be committed, the offender
shall be fined not less than two nor
more than five times tho amount Of
the bill, one half Of the fine thus as
scsscd to be paid to the trustee Of the

half to tho person giving the informal
