From the London sn,pping Gazette Of Sept IL
The bill lately introduced into the House OF Re-
representatives. al Washington, seeking TO impose
high duties upon various articles imported from
this country, well from the continent of Eu-
rope. appears to have received support from vari-
Gus persons, on the plea that adequate protection
is not given TO native manufactures by the present
tariff laws, and that, consequently, capital, which
might be proftably and usefnlly employed in die
production OF fabrics AZ home, is diverted into chan
nels otherwise than favorable 70 domestic industry.
As regards the article OF silk, it has been urged
that il is impossible for American manufacturers to
compete either with England or France
that the fierce competition the part OF
these countries for the trade OF the world has
completely shut out other than foreign silks in the
whole of the markets in the States. Let us
how far the arguments here used in favor of higher
duties are borne out by facts. Admitting that the
manufacture of silk goods in America is but in its
infancy, il is necessary that should notice its
gradual development and progress during the last
few years, in order that no misapprehensions may
exist on a subject which, unquestionably, has most
significant bearings. In confirmation of the pro-
gress of silk manufactures, we may observe, that
in 1915 the value Of raw silk consumed in the States
amounted to only 1904 ,092. In 1854 it was 81 09i
423. Since then, with the exception of 1855, 1856
and 1857, the increase is an important one, until

IT, then, the trade between England and the
United States is 10 continue 10 prosper let America
at once throw aside all impressions in favor Of re-
strctions. For years the great republic has
fourished under system Of duties which has
taught Europe a most important lesson. That
lesson has, fortunately, placed England in high
position amongst the nations of the world; and
shall America, with her vast resources, seek to
stem the current of trade which, hitherto has been
so profitable 10 her! We trust not; but if ever so
unwise policy should be determined upon, the re-
suit, in more than one point of view, may be
disastrous.

county Of Ingham, is enc 0: the most indeiati-
gable workers in the county. Without preju-
dice to the other sound Republicans whose names

truth to say, that Mr. Hodgkiss has no superior

which nominated him, passed the following reso-
lutions:
ResOlued, That we hail with mingled feelings
of pleasure and delight, the cheering signs Of the
onward progress Of the great principles of Free

by the Great Republican Convention at Chicago.
That in the nominees Of that Convention, AbFa-
ham Lincoln and Hannibal Iianlin, We recognize
two honest, upright aud noble standard bearers,
and that We will do all that in u lies to aid in
electing them TO the highest office, in the gift

The MIX I'm the Cocoa Nut

Every day or two, the Telegraph brings Us a
glowing account OF Union" Convention in
this or that Free State, 81 which Bell and Ev-
ere,t Electors, or State candidates are nominated,
or in some Congressional District where I'm
ion" candidate for Congress is put forward.
Thus, Maine, Connecticut, and Indiana have
been provided with Bell Electors, or with the
means OF presenting such at short notice, though
nobody on earth believes that Bell can possibly
get fortieth part of the vote OF either OF
these States and though nobody imagiaes that
the Electors so nominated will be voted for by
even the handful engaged in bringing them for
ward. Thus. Philadelphia, Cincinnati, &C, have
been supplied with Bell candidates for Congress,
who will be elected Of ever after several
droves Of camels have walked, three abreast
through the eyes Of a whole pack of the finest
cambria needles. The object and the impetus
Of these nominations may be learned from the
following portion of the testimony taken before

Mr. EDITOR While much deserving notice
is taken OF the Colleges in our midst, it should
not be forgotten that We have "a Peoples Col.

| The Union School in the ii Ward, the sum

| two years from an apparently unknown iLstitu.
ton to deservedly popular one. When Mr..
Russell, the present efficient principal, took
charge OF the school two years since, it mum.
bered but sixty scholars, all small, with no At
tention on the part OF parents or pupils. Be
| ing somewhat interested in the success of such
schools, We have carefully watched its progress,
and find it gradually advancing. Before the
end of the first term, the number of pupils in
creased TO one hundred and sxty--at the end
of the second term to two hundred and sixty
the third to three hundred-the fourth and last
| term, being summer term, We fad the roll
| reaching three hundred and thirteen With
this increase in numbers, We find a correspou-
ding increase in interest on the part of parents
and shOlars Many scholars from distant dis.
tricts have awaited themselves of the aivauta-
and by their tuition fees, have somewhat ale
waited the suffering tax payer.
We attended the closing exercises aud found
the regular routine of every day life in the
school room, instead of a gotten up examina-
ton aud exhibition, what go often disgraces
the principals of fashionable schools. Tie
classes that we heard recite on this occasion
acquitted themselves with much credit -eyn.
cling close application on their part, and thorough
drill on the part of their teachers The "Sane
Statesman" an Grafton by Master Thompson,
was well written, aud delivered ia a clear and
forcible manner. Essay by Miss Stanton, on

of her subject, and mastered it accordingly.
Miss Ostrander served Us a dish Of Modern
Humbug," and did it in true modern style, &C.
quitting herself very credtaby. These orations
and essays, We were Informed, are a part of the
every day exercises of the school, and which,
We consider decidedly cOmmendable feature.
In looking over their programme of exercises,
We find the following advanced studies: Geome.
try, Logic, Algebra, Book Keeping, Chemistry,
BotaIy, German, French, Latin and Music. OF
the latter branch, We had good example of the
efficiency of the training, in some of the chorus

students, this being made an every day exercise,

carse Of his now being Negro Slavery ExteIi-
sonist, under the lead OF Mr.. Douglas, permit
NE 10 relate conversation that took place be-
tween Mr.. ii. and myself upon the subject o.;
slavery, by which you will see that the statement
made by you was not in all respects correct.
Sometime last winter, long before any nomina.
ton was made for the Presidency, NJ. II. stated
to NE with much emphasis and apparent candor,
"that the proper and true condition Of the black
man or negro was slavery; that it was what he
was made for, and nothing else; that the bred
Scott decision was correct, and met with his en-
tire approval; that il was right and proper to
extend the institution into all our Territories,
&c. Being much surprised at the speech, sup
po-ing Mr.. ii. to be Republican, | asked him
how he could act with Republicans and entertain
such las considersd) atrocious views. He an.
swered that he could not act with them any
longer; tina, he should hereafter unite with the
Democracy, as he believed they were right on
the negro question. Hence his Partially for Mr..
Douglas, with his 'dOn't care" principles, yoked

power over the subject both from Congress and

BAD METAPHOR FOR HUNr-Metaphors are
dangerous figures to handle. They are ike
edge-tools for children, and are often slightly
"mixed" Mr.. Greeley catches Mr.. Hunt in a
very bad metaphor, when he says: There is
no prophecy so safe as that which is made after
the consummation Of the event predicted. Wis
dom is sure, in such a case, to be justified, and
the foolishness of failure has no dread for the
seer. Mr.. Washington Hunt is a prophet of
this sort. In his speech the other evening, at

any candid inquirer to read the discussions be-

to learn just where these two eminent citizens
stand respectively, and what are really the
matters in difference between the Republicans
and the Douglas Democracy?
Did you ever, in any of Douglass Speeches
land he has sometimes made three or four daily
OF late) find a hint dropped that he would like
to have those discussions read generally, in
order that each voter shall know exactly what
is the issue.
Did you ever hear of Douglas edition of
those joint debates being issued or likely to be ::
Did you ever hear Douglas man-though
they generally profess to hold Douglas mentally
the superior of Lincoln-wish to have any one
read Mr.. LIS Cooper Institute Speech, or ar v
other ever made by him?
We never did. If you have been more for.
tunate, just say it,"
