AMERICAN MANUFAcTUREs.-The gross
product of manufacture in this country in
1910 was S200,0O0,000. In 1860 they
reached the enormous aggregate of $1,000
100000. The population of the United
States in this interval of half a century has
multiplied four and half fold, but our
manufactures ten fold.
As appropriate to this subject, we quote
from two world-renowned philosophers, Jno.
Locke and Adam Smith. The former says
In places wherein thriving manufactures have
erected themselves land has been observed to
sell quicker, and for more years purchase, than
in other places.
The following testimony of the dlstin-
guished author of the Wealth OF Nations, y
is to the same effect:
The most opulent nations, indeed, generally
excel all their neighbors in agriculture as well as
in manufactures; but they are eminently more
distinguished by their superiority in the latter
than in the former.

NEGRO KIDvAPpING IN THE SOUTH

Referring to the rumors that have been
sent North, by Yankee correspondence the
South, that negroes are being kidnapped in
Georgia and Alabama, and shipped to Cuba
and then sold, the Augusta Constituencies
says:
The parties engaged in removing eolered people
from Georgia are not Southern but Northern men,
perhaps from New England. II profitable ven
lures have been made as the Nations correspon-
dent asserts, then the people of New England have
turned to their old trade that OF kidnapping those
unfortunate people whom they once stole from
Africa and sold into slavery; but now that the IN
stitution is abolished here a new Held has been
discovered for their philanthropy. The South, IN
place of Africa. supplies the game and Cuba re-
ceives the plumber. This is all new to us that Is
the existence of a traffic being carried on between
Georgia and Cuba in the late slave population OF
the South
1t was reported to us. and stated in our paper.
that colored people were being moved West from
the interior of Georgia to WORK on plantations;
but the parties having them in charge were ORTIZ
ern men, who were reported to have purchased or
leased land from Southerners. If then, as this
CORRESPONDENT asserts, the slave trade has been
revived our people have no agency in the trafhc,
and those Northern men who have been hiring
labor in Georgia must come forward and prove the
Nations correspondent n libeller We suspect
that the report was gotten up, like great many
Others, for the purpose of defaming our people;
but it has fortunately happened in this instance
that curses, like chickens, come home to roost.

FADING AWAY OF THE NEGRO. -The
Chattanooga Gazette contains the following
1t is frequently observed that negro wo-
men have rarely been troubled with chill
dren the past year or two. This is an omi-
nous fact. Few negro women have chill
dren, and when they do, their increase soon
returns to the dust it was. Formerly, These
women had comfortable homes, regular en-
ployment, plenty to eat and lived in
families. Now, they wander about almost
outcasts. When their children are sickly,
they neglect them, and most of them die
When grown negroes are sick, they have
but little feeling for each other. If they
have no money, they need not send for Q
physician, and they die by thousands and
tens of thousands all over the South. The
daily mortality among the negroes is equal
to the ravages of an unsparing pestilence
This is what we hear on all sides, and it ii
probable the African race will soon go where
the Indian race went before it.

THE following protest was signed by two
deacons and ten pew-holders of Dr. Sunder-
lands Church, in Washington, remonstrat-
ing against the use Of the building for the
lecture of Douglass
We. the undersigned officers. members and
pew.holders of the First Presbyterian Chuch of
this city, do hereby solenniy protest against the
church being occupied by promiscuous gather
ing of whites and colored persons to listen TO a
lecture from Frederick Douglass On subject not
religious in its character but calculated to destroy
the harmony of the church. and to bring 1t into
great disrepute; the lecture. although ostensibly
TO obtain funds for the benefit of colored orphans,
being in reality TO enable certain political parties
10 promulgate their peculiar doctrines in opposi-
ton 10 the piers Of the President NJ the United
States and large majority Of the american people.
We therefore respectfully request the sexton not
TO permit the church to be thus desecrated.
No attention was paid to this, however,
and the negro orator was permitted by

the rest of the brood of destructionists, to
abuse at will the Chief Magistrate of the

WE are informed by the Geographic dis
patches that the reading of the Presidents
message in the Senate "created intense feel
ing on the part of the Senators and members
of the House, as well as the spectators In the
galleries. but without any open manifesto
tions, except at the close of the meeting,
when loud applause shook one section of the
gentlemens gallery, mingled with determin-
ed Kisses and emphatic blows of the Vice
Presidents hammer" The Vice President
said the message would be entered upon the
journal. and moved the Senate now proceed
to the consideration Of the bill. Mr.. Lane
moved the message be printed, and that
consideration of the bill be postpon-
ed till tomorrow at 10 o'clock. The
motion to print was agreed to. Upon the
question of postponement the yeas and
nays were taken, resulting yeas, IL; nays,
%. Mr.. Lane said he felt warranted in
using parliamentary means to secure post
ponement; he moved that the subject be post
poned till 5 o'clock, yeas, IL; nays, 20. MIR.
Lane then moved to adjourn, but this was
disagreed to. After other other desultory
motions, Mr.. Sherman, who had voted with
the majority, said it was hardly fair to re-
fuse opportunity for discussion to those who
had expressed desire for it if four-fifths OF
the body should determine to consider the
subject. Seeing that it would be in the
power of two or three to keep the Senate in
session all night to no purpose, he therefors
moved to adjourn, which was carried without
| division.
In the House, as will be seen from ouI
dispatches, Stevens became exceedingly bill,
lious, and gave limitations that he felt there
was danger of terrible upheaving around

II is reported that vaccination has been
resorted TO in England as a prev enfive
against the terrible cattle plague, and that 1t
has proved efsica cious in almost all Instances.
All the cattle ow ners not having resorted to
this measure, ofcourse the disease continues,
but the introduction Of vaecinati on as pre-
ventiye will have the effect Of lessening the
disorder and finally banishing it from the
British Islands. Some intu nations have
been given that the disease b as appeared IN
certain portions of this country, and that
cattle have exhibited symptoms leading to
reasonable belief that they W ere affected with
the dreaded and deadly disease. Upon this
subject the Philadelphia Age suggests that
whether this be true or not, it will do no
harm to try all possible means To put our
cattle in condition to escape this malady.
This can be done by the agricultural socie-
ties in the different counties and States ur-
ging upon cattle owners the obligation of
trying vaccination at this early period. II
can be done at a trifling cost, and if it does
no good, it will certainly do no harm. 1t is
our duty to use all possible means to guard
against the cattle plague, and now that sci
ence has pointed out reliable safeguard, it
should be tried by all the stock owners of
the nation.
A plague among the cattle of the country
at this time would be attended with pecu-
liarly distressing consequences. The war
diminished the number of cattle North and
South. Cattle being needed and bringing a
high price, they were eagerly disposed of
for feeding the army. Then, again, hay
commanding hitherto unheard Of figure
per ton, it was sold, and the stock of cat
tie allowed to decrease. In this way the
price of butter and beef has reached its
present height. The mechanic and
laborer can scarcely afford these luxu-
ries. To be sure, the number Of cattle is in
creasing but it must be slowly, and should
the plague visit us with anything like the
fatality it has exhibited in the Old World,
beef and butter will be banished from
almost all households. To avert such
calamity, the voice of science should be
listened to, and the experience of the cattle
owners of Europe needed. Addresses upon
this subject from those who have made rails
ing a specially, would at this time arrest
public attention and lead to practical results.
