Telegraph announcement brings the sud-
den news of the death of Mr.. Thomas
Brown, who died in Brooklyn, N. Y, of
typhoid fever.
: MIR. Brown, as is we'll known, was for
some years connected with the Cleveland
press, and was the former owner of the
Ohio Farmer. After retiring from news
paper life, Mr.. Brown was appointed, by
Mr.. Chase, then Secretary of the Treasury,
to investigate the condition of the Treas
ury Agencies on the Pacific coast, and
passed some months, in and about San
Francisco, in discharge of that duty. While
thus engaged, Mr.. Brown made himself
very conversant with our Revenue system,
ana has been retained in the Treasury De-
partment since his return, making New
York his headquarters. Mr.. Brown had
become so proficient in matters of revenue,
and finance Herewith connected, as to be
the prominent person spoken of in con-
nection with the responsible position of
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury.
Mr.. Brown was a man of great kindli-
ness of heart and manner, generously i'm
pulsive, very confiding, of strict integrity,
and most affectionately held by those con-
nected by social or domestic ties, and his
death will leave many sincere mourners.-

Workings Of she Protective sy--

Workings of the Protective Sys-
Kiln Tenn. -zE. p a-is
The Cincinnati Commercial thus forcibly
sets forth the bottom of the doctrines of the
tariffites: .-.. ....,..s- ..-.-..-
ssThe protectionists are getting things a
good deal mixed. If it were fairly admit
ted that the protection given by tariff in
American industry, is simply the taxation
of the consumers of manufactured articles
for the benefit of the manufacturers, there
would be nothing to do but to make such
an arrangement satisfactory to the consum-
'ers. But the protectionists pretend that
they are going to benefit all classes, and
every body, therefore, want little pro-
lection while it is to be had. The wool
manufacturers wanted protection, and
were succeeded by the wool-growers;
and now they are doubled and twisted
and tied in knot. The manufacturer of
woolen goods, demanding that the peo-
pie shall pay him twice the value of
the goods in order to protect him, de-
sires ofcourse to get his raw material cheap,
but is met by the wool-growers' demand
for protection of wool. And the manufac-
turers generally want cheap labor, and at
the same time be protected from competition
with the pauper labor of Europe. This is
being answered by the working men, who
want protection against the Importation of
foreign labor-that is, immigration. Some
of the Pennsylvania tariffites who howl
forever to be protected, having a strike on
hand, sent to Europe for men and brought
them over. SO the Pittsburgh laborers see
that it is perfectly logical to demand that
foreign emigration shall cease, and they do
so accordingly. They might also enter
protest against the too rapid multiplication
of the human race in America, and thus
carry out the theory which limits the num-
Der of apprentices. 1t is fine thing that
the protectionists are getting toward the
bottom of their doctrine"

Velocity.


The speed of our ocean steamers in cross
ing the Atlantic rarely exceeds IL miles per
hour; the speed of river steamers is from IA
to "a miles per hour; of a race-horse from
20 to 80; of bird 80 to 60; of high wind
20, and of hurricane so miles; of sound
s04; of mechanical force in air 750; of the
earth around the sun 6S 600; of light, as
demonstrated by Foucault's apparatus &C.,
000,000 miles, and yet this inconceivable
speed is little more than half the velocity of
static electricity. which latter Wheaton has
shown to be 1,040.000000 miles an hour. Ii
the earth were acannon- shot at the sun
from its present distance, and with the We
locity it now travels, and if Simultaneous
with the explosion a telegram was sent to
the solar inhabitants, the electricity would
pass the intervening space of So, O0O, 900 miles
and the message be received in five min
utes; the earth would be seen coming to-
ward them after the lapse of eight minutes;
the Inhabitants would have nearly two
years to prepare for the shock, which would
be received over ten years before they heard

Hints to EmigranIs.


Under the caption editorial Jottings,"
the Petersburg Inder humorously takes off
some features of the popular furore for
Brazil. We quote: ~, -..-.-.. ..t ...
"There is a delightful region in South
America, accessible by steamboat, which is
not only pleasant to live in, but affords
charming prospects for all who wish to

who look forward for support to public
offices and confiscation.
The vegetation OF the country is peren-
nial, and the splendor and elegance of ma
ture are, beyond description, fine. The
emigrant, like the native, has only to step
ashore, go into the woods and be happy.
He reclines, with dignitied ease, under
meath the first clump of trees. On looking
up he discovers the bread-fruit growing,
and above that the pendant branches OF the
cocoanut. -... ..--..
In the same woods the shirt-tree grows,
described by the celebrated traveller, Hum
boldt. The tree is felled by an ordinary
knife, the skin is taken off, two arm-hOles
are cut into it, and there is the shirt. A
work of five poor little minutes, and one
may get through with it lazily in an idle
spell, whiting off the small end of moth
ing from chunk of soft pine.
To vary the diet one need only whistle
for native, who will come, and for the
consideration OF nal1 cent Will produce
from his traps two dozen woodcocks, which
are plentiful there, and as we all know are
most delicious eating. For one cent you
may obtain bushel and half of sweet
potatoes. The yam, indeed. grows almost
spontaneously, and is brought to its high
est state of perfection by being simply
poked in hole and covered over with
sand, an operation requiring no more en-
ergy than is necessary to dip up gourd
of wafer and drink. lrr Hr-. 20. = Z
All sorts of fruit grow in the greatest
abundance, and force themselves into OBJ

are her seniors in our city's history, or
who have witnessed so much of its wonder

S5N1SSAOAAs
In letter to the Washington Chronicle,
Mr.. Thaddeus Stevens recommends the
holding of July session of Congress. He
says that 1.-THE opinions of the Attorney
General seem to require some explanatory
or supplemental acts" This refers to the
first opinion given by Mr.. Stanbery upon
registration. He charges the Attorney
General with usurpation in acting at all in
the question, and says he had no more
right to interfere than the President to re-
construct. His opinion is as good as that
of any other lawyer; it is the attempt to
treat it as official that MIR. Stevens objects
to. The Washington Chronicle of the 14th
also makes the same opinion the ground
work for an appeal to Congress to meet in
July, and charges the President with med
itating a practical notification of the mil
itary reconstruction laws. -......
The country will regret to see this un
necessary renewal of political agitation. A
general calm had succeeded the last session
of Congress, and the South has been quietly
adapting itself to the situation. Even the
Radical leader; who have visited the South
speak tavorably of the temper of the peo-
pie. The South has done nothing to i'm
pede the operation of the reconstruction
law. bIt, on the contrary, has shown gen
eral disposition to conform to its require
ments. Just as thugs have begun to move
smoothly, and an era of repose and good
feeling seemed at hand, it was proposed
that the doth Congress shall reassemble and
set the caldron of strife boiling again.
Whilst the hearts of the people are begin
ming to rejoice in the prospects of bounti-
full crops, and the creative energies of ma
ture are put forth to efface the traces of
war and contribute to the happiness ana
prosperity of the nation, the destructive
passions of party are invoked to mar this
cheering prospect, and impose new bur-
thens and exactions upon country which
is just recuperating from civil strife and
exhausting taxation. The immense eX-
penditure in the five military districts of
the South, the heavy cost of the Freed
mems Bureau, the prospective expendi-
lures OF the Indian wars, will make suf-
ficient drain upon the resources of the peo-
pie. A more economical administration OF
public affairs is needed. The national debt
ought to be diminished instead of in
creased. If Congress will permit political
questions to be settled, the promising har-
vest of breadstutfs, and the cotton of 1867,
expected by good Judges to be three mil
lions of bales, will do for reconstruction
and return of old business and social re-
lations what July session canuot effect.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

Money continues very plenty in New York,
but is growing closer in Chicago, owing to the
large amounts required in the coustry to buy
and forward the grain crop which is large thro'-
out the west and at the present high prices 1t re-
auires large amount of money to supply 1.-The
dealers in it. These good crops and high prices
are very favorable for the western farmers and is
filing their pockets with greenbacks.
The money market in Ottawa remains about
the same. The National Banks are short, owing
to the approach Of statement day, and borrowers
generally fail in getting accommodations ana
will have to wait until after the LIST OF October
Money on long time is scarce, and those borrow
ers who are unwilling to pay commission fail
to get loans on long time.
We understand there is some talk OF organlz-
inc a Savings Bank corporation under the char
fer obtained last winter entitled the "Ottawa Sa-
wings Bank Charter 1t provides for a capital
of $4,000 and would be u safe institution for
the deposit of small large amounts ON interest.
We understand it would be patterned in every
respect after the Eastern Savings Banks, and
would afford every one having from 81 to $1,000
a safe place of deposit, where their money would
be earning them something. We hope it will be
started, and shall refer to it again.
Exchange on New York and Chicago remains
the same as last week. Foreign drafts are selling
for $3.50 per pound sterling.
Government bonds remain about the same. Fay
Il Sherwood, who deal quite largely in bonds,
