Leaving the Crumbling Edifice

Capt. e. S. Williams, of Smith county,
the leader of the Stokes wing in the
late split convention, and the strongest,
and, by odds, the ablest advocate that
Stokes had in that convention, has
abandoned the "Bald Eagle" and come
out fair and square for "Senter and
Universal suffrage" We commend the
gallant Colonel to hasten across the
mountain, as his interests in that direc-
ton are suffering terribly. His slight
majority in East Tennessee won't do
him any good.

Whatever may be our lot or condi-
ton in life, it issnot without ats sorrows
as well as its joys, its advantages as well
as its disadvantages. So also is it with
parties, as may be seen in the tortuous,
course of the Democratic organization
It's aim is supremacy by which is meant
the privilege filling all the offices; as for
having any other, We acknowledge freely
that it is entirely innocent Of such thing.
For more than eight years our Democrat.
ic friends have been shut out from the Of
fees, with not even shadow of prospect
of being able to get single one of the
national tcats between TIER lips for the
next four. But they, hopeful creatures,
indulge in the vain illusion that they may
carry Pennsylvania at the coming State
election. 1t is discomfort to be out of Of
fee it is comfort to hope, and very pleas
ant to be free to find fault when you please,
to denounce what you please and to do
generally whatever irresponsible parties
may DO Win inquiry AheIO StO ae
present two cries Justify beloved by the
faithful ofour State The first is the cry of
corruption, and thesecond of niger equal
ity" because of the rattle alton of the
XVIII amendment. Tho immaculate De-
mocracy of course has been incorrupt and
incorruptible, bashful as virgin and pure
as saint, and is not it the party of the
people, especially of the poor man, as is
plainly manifested in its intention to nom
mate for Governor that very poor man,
Asa Packer, CT that other poverty stricken
soul, Geo. W. Cass And then wherever
you find poor men you find Democrats.
All the hard listed sons of toll are of course
Democrats. For insta nee the workingmen
of the mills and factories of Allegheny are
al dyed in the wool Democrats rolling up
some 10000 Democratic majority On
the other hand, isn't rich old Berks with
its rich old German farmers good at any
time for 5000 Republican majority Sure
ly all the rich are Republicans and all the
poor Democrats.

Dom es:Ic Industry.

We publish in another column for the
benefit of our readers statement in the
shape of seven propositions put forth at
public meeting of persons friendly to the
protection Of our domestic industry held
in Philadelphia on April 29th of the
present year.
Our readers we'll know our views in re-
gard to the necessity of affording adequate
protection to all those industries which we
have the means of prosecuting, yet in do
ing which we are thrown into competition
with the cheap labor of Europe. If any
of our patrons, however, are in doubt as to
the .Wlsuom or necessity OF protection, we
commend to their attentive perusal the
document to which we have referred =
They will find it little, if at all, short Of
demonstration.
Some persons friendly to protection per-
suadei themselves that the policy of the
country relative thereto is settled, and the
discussion of the question, at this day, is
equivalent to riding dead horse. We
differ from such, and doubt not that the
revision of the tariff laws now in contem-
plationby Congress will develop the factthat
the friends Of free trade and Great Britain
are as active as ever. We do not mean to
say that all those who adhere TO free trade
desire the prosperity Of European indus
tries at the expense of our own. But we
do affirm that is the tendency and result
of their action. The opponents of protec-
ton come from three quarters. The most
virulent and active are those interested
directly or Indirectly in the importation of
foreign manufactured goods. The next is
small but increasing, and includes that
class Of persons in New England who
through the aid of protection in the past
and American skill have succeeded in
bringing machinery to such perfection as
to enable them to compete with cheap for
eisn labor. The last class is composed OF
agriculturalists, chiefly resident in the
west, who are led astray by the supposition
that because protection makes them pay a
greater nominal price for their manufac-
tured goods, that it is SO much taken from
their profits.
The action of the committee was timely
and wise, and their statements irrefutable
