The following, from the New York
Tribune, speaks for itself. All must
acknowledge Mr., Greelcy's ability to
elucidate this or any other political
subject. We hope that all who be.
lieve in, and advocate, tariff measures
different from those advocated by the
Tribune, will read these essays and be-
come cognizant of the arguments by
which tariff men enforce their views.
"The Tribune will commence on or
about June lst, the publication in
weekly chapters of a treatise by its
Editor on PoL1rlcAL EcoNoMY, designed
more especially to eluci,late aud dc
tend the policy of PRorEcrloN TO Howe
INDUSTRY. He expects to bring the
work within the compass of twenty to
twent! five chapters of three or four
columns each, and to treat the subject
With such simplicity and dircctness
that few can read those essays without
at least realizing that the Protective
policy is either grossly misunderstood
or deliberately misreprcsented by the
champions Of Free Trade. The public
shall, at all events, realize that we, who
stand for Protection, habitually read
and try to comprehend our adverse
ries, while they ignore our writings
and grossly carica,ure our arguments.
These essays will ultimately be
printed together; but, in vi, W OF the
desperate efforts of the Fro. Traders
to iorcstall opinion and try to wrest
verdict from public which has not
heard the case argued we ask the
friends OF Protection to and lis IN Civ
ing these essays, as they originally fall
from the press, a general diffusion
We shall print more than Two Hun.
dred Thousand copies of each in our
regular editions; but We hope they will
receive a still wider dissemination
the formation OF New clubs
(Which We supply at fraction over
the cost of white paper) for the Week
ly Tribune. Whoever would have
these essays from the outset must
transmit their orders by the LIST OF
June.

A COMMERCIAL Convention was late
ly held in Chicago, wherein the Boards
Of Trade Of the various cities on the
line from Chicago to New York, were
represented. The object OF the con-
vention was to adopt some means of
throwing obstacles in the way OF the
successful shipping of grain now being
made down the Mississippi. While
nothing in that line was accomplished,
we have to thank that convention for

grain is subjected in its transit from

WASHINGTON, May 14.-Thc Navy
Department, to-day, received a highly
important dispatch from Admiral Hotf,
dated Havana, May 9th, as follows;
"As l am to be absent from this
port for few days, to relieve the
United States steamer Narragansett at
Key West, and for change OF air for
the officers and crew, shall give the
Department few items upon the po-
litical status OF affairs. | have Just re-

here is remarkably quiet. The Span
ish authorities seem confident of sup
pressing the rebellion before the expi
ration of the year. The rainy season
now coming on precludes the possibll-
ity OF any active operations from the
interior. Of the movements of either

that the revolution has not been con-

our Consul General, and the Commo-
dore Of the English feet, seem to
think that the instruction is being
crushed; and, in a few weeks, it will
consist OF nothing but irregular bands
of outlaws scattered through the intc-
rior. The Peruvian monitor, Nance
Capac," reported as lost, has arrived at
St. Thomas, and the crew OF the con-
voy Monterey sank some time since
bycollision, sailed from this port, yester-
day, in French steamer, bound to

This table is worthy OF study, and
We hope all Our readers interested in
grain, in any manner, will not fail to
examine it. 1t costs as much TO ship
grain the first two hundred miles as it
does for the other thousand and odd
miles. Chicago, whose "enterprise' in
business succeeds in preventing all
successful attempts to ship grain d.
rectly through without stopping at
that point, exacts tribute from each
bushcl to the amount of four and one
fourth cents. Buffalo exacts tribute Of
three and threc-fourth cents more, ami
New York City must have three cents
tor her share. After the indisputcd
proofs that gram can be carried to
New York, tia the Mississippi river, at
very much less rates, there is no won
der that Chicago is frightened half out
Of her wits.
