ECONOMY FROM AN Ex.REnEL "A sagncious
rebel general recently remarked: ave made two
great mistakes. Had we avoided them, We should
have conquered you. The first was that we did
not substantially destroy the protective features
Of the Tariff in the winter session Of 1878 By
mn net which provided rapid annual sliding scale
to free trade As Democratic measure, we could
have passed such q law. aud held 1t tight on you
till II had closed the furnaces, workshops. wooden
and cotton mills and steel and bar and iron works
of the whole North and West, and scattered your
workrnen over the prairies and territories. When
the war was ready for you. you wouldn't have
been ready for the war. You could not have
armed, and equipped, and put In the field, large
army, nor built navy. You would have been
without supplies, machinery and workmcn, and
you would have been without money and credit.
Our second mistake was in Withdrawing our Sem
ators and Representatives from your Congress.
Had we left them there, their yote combined with
the Northern Democratic, would have thwarted
every military and financial measure necessary to
enable you to carry on the war for n sufficient
length Of time to have enabled us to seize the
Government, occupy some of your States, obtain
recognition abroad, and dictate hard terms to
YOU. How the - VIC blundered In these two re-
spects can't understand, except upon the hy-
pothesis Of an overruling Providence"
