burglaries, highway robberies, &c.
The offenders walk the streets in open

disputng 1t But, unfortunately, there Is noV
enough Intelligence in this country, or per- I
haps ii any other country, to offset the die
tates of a seeming interest, Temporary profit
transient prosperity, large dividends for few
wears, allure the manufacturers into q net
from which there is, apparently, no escape,
The very "system on which they calculate
to enrich themselves at the expense of the
rest of the community is fatal to them in the
end. And yet they cannot abandon it with
! out tempting the ruin which is sure to over
take them at last
For few years the manufacturing capital
lists of New England have been reyelling in
profits. They have gained unparalleled divi-
dends, and have, almost, reduced all the other
industrial interests of the country to d state
| of subserviency. But their flush time seems
to be coming to an end The New York
Times says th&t there are signs and tokens in
the business world which the prudent manu-
facturer and trader ought not to disregard.
Though speculation is rife, trade generally is
dull, In tine dry goods branch especially the
depression is severe 'tIt has not been so
bad since 1857" is the report received from
/ one quarter; and the statement tallies, the
Times declares, with the current testimony of
those who supply the interior trade, West or
South. The cause of the depression is repre-
sented as very simple The retailers Of the
country are oyer-stocked; they are not buying
because they have not sold the stocks they
purchased months ago; and the stagnation
they suffer reacts upon the Eastern markets.
The failure of a great dry goods commission
!, house in New York is one Of the earliest re-
suits; while the fact that the paper Of the
firm sold at six per cent. after the suspension
had occurred-seller and buyer being alike
ignorant of the circumstance establishes the
good credit it enjoyed to the last moment.
Manufacturing failures are reported from Mas
saehusetts and Connecticut; and agents OF
woolen manufacturers make no secret of then
apprehension of difficulty arising from over
production.
But over-production is not the real cause
Of the difficulty. There would not be over
production in manufactures if the ''protectivt
system" had not deadened the productive en-
ergies and tie purchasing capaeityo of all othe1
/ industrial classes. This must be the conse
quence of the restrictive method; and it il
, fully illustrated in the present condition 0
f the country.
