The Tariff-Farmers, Reflect,


The tariff act, as proposed, will levy a
tax often cents Fer bnshel on foreign corn
Think of that, sturdy farmersi And tax
of one dollar per tun on foreign hay Think
of that, tool
These prohibitions will surely intimidate
France and Germany and Egypt from
rushing upon our Western farmers their
superabundant corn. While Paraguay,
Brazil, Peru, &c, will scarcely have the
temerity to crowd upon our barns and
stack-yards their spare hay crops.
How grateful our agricultural friends
should be for the protection which New
England influence has thus vouchsafed
them. And ESPECIALLY should they not
fail to observe how faithfully ScHRNcK has
taken care of their interests in this line.
While on this topic we will offer to our
readcrs-especially the farmers and me-
chanics-a contrast between the protection
which Republican policy is pursuing

cents per yard. The calculation Is easily
made by any one having acquaintance with
the cotton manufacture what the profits
must have been in those days, Immediately
ai,or the last war with Great Britain.
Cotton was then about 25 cents per pound,
and the goods very thin and loosely put
together, weighing not more than A ounces
to the yard, were sold for n long time at
80 to 40 cents per yard, wholesale, and
generally by retail at 90 cents. The cost of
the goods did not vary much from 10 cents
per yard. Now 1t has been well establish
ed by long experience that in the manu-
facture of staple mHslins say brown sheet
ings, one centa yard, clear profit, pays
about % per cent. on the capital stock or
cost Of the works, and consequently IL
cents profit is made, the dividends are 100
per cent, aud SO on l00additiOnal foreVery
additional cents profit ON the yard. The

Foran hour there was fine display of
fireworks from the top of the building.
Each OF the party were introduced 70 the
crowd from the balcony ON Washington
street and were received with prolonged
cheers. When General Meredith COM
mcnceG the welcome address to the Presi-
dent, II was evident there was nn organized
gang of rOwdies, led by prominent Repub-
licans determined to prevent the President
from speaking. When he commenced re-
turning thanks, cries of all descriptions
We're uttered by the Republican rowdies,
who said he should not be heard.
The President spoke short time not
withstanding the confusion, aud then re-
tired. General Grant came out and said
"FoR THE CREDIT on YOUR CITY. HEAR US ALL
sPfAk." But the reSDonse came, I'VE
WON'T HEAR AN$OF your
SECOND DISPATCH.
When General Meredith introduced Cen
cral Grant from the balcony he said:
FELLOW -CITJZFNs, ferries for "Grant"l u Is
not my intention, cries of "Stop" AGo
on to make a long speech if you give me
your attention for five minutes. fCries of

Let me appeal 10 you, citizens of Indian
apolis and of Indiana [The confusion
still cOntinued.l Let me appeal to you
again. But the crowd was unrelentiug and
would not be quiet.
Pistol shots were fired. by which one
man was wounded In the eye and another
on the knee. According to the best infor-
nation attainable marshal on horseback
was seen riding along the line of torch
lights aud evidently giving directions as
the men soon thereafter stretched out their
ranks. Persons were observed knocking
down with clubs several Of the tranparen-
cies. one of which bore the inscription,
Johnson-Welcome the PRESIDENT ~ The
holder OF this transparency was thrown
down and shot fired at him. A friend
came to his relief and fired ut the assai-
ant. ..
At least Il dozen or more shots were fired
in quick succession. The result is that one
man was shot in the heart aud several
wounded.
The President received few friends, and
retired to bed at an carly hour
