More imports under protection by 81, 5,336,633
per month.
1t will be seen that our imports are not de-
cliniDg-that they have been much larger in
the last four years Of peace than in the four
preceding years of war; and our revenue
therefrom also keeps up. In the eight months
ending with February of the present and two
preceding years, the cash (gold) paid into the
Treasury as duties on imports at our city are
officially reported as follows:-

We trust our correspondents apprehen-
sion that revenue from imports will be de-
stroyed by protection is by this time dissi-
pated.
His apprehension that sthe consumer
would not get 1t cheaper il we grew our own
tea is at war with notorious facts. We have
naturalized many branches of production
among us by the help Of protective duties;
and that our people are now generally sup
piled with metals, wares, and fabrics far
cheaper than they would be If we produced
none but imported all, we hold as demonstra-
bly, true as that we drink cheaper water than
though we imported our entire supply from
Europe. II any one doubts this, let him COM
pare the prices paid by us with those paid by
our grandfathers sixty to seventy years ago.
Doubtless, we might buy some salt, iron,
blankets, sheetipgs, ETC., cheaper If we had no
tariff: but let us attempt to draw our entire
supply from abroad and the prices wOuld..ris
far above those We now pay.
II our correspondent thinks 1t smart to com
pare the growing of pineappes in hot-houses
with 1.-THE growth of tea in South Carolina oil
Tennessee, very WE'LL but we assure him tha
is not argument. We do not propose to grow
coffee, simply because we have not the proper
climate; we do wish to grow tea, because we
have q climate substantially identical witt
that In which the tea we now drink il
grown In China or Japan. And we hav,
every reason TO believe that tea, after few
years of ignorance and experiment, woulC
be grown here far cheaper than we now OBJ
tain 1t.
We hope this sim pie, easy lesson in frs
principles will not be lost on that large clas
who are more ready to ask questions than T.
give careful heed to the answers.

The few words uttered by General Grant in
response to Mr.. Blodgett's delegation, Thurs
day afternoon, are full Of Significance. 'He
wanted to see one thing very much, and that
was, all classes of the people protected in their
opinions everywhere. He desired TO see the
speedy establishment OF law and order in the
South"
This is q repetition, obviously, OF the formal
and pregnant idea Of the Inaugural Address: -
.'Seeurity Of person and property, and security

part of our common country, without regard

SAFE BLowIxG.-On Thursday
night-of last week, the office of Can.
field d Geeseman, at Fremont. was
entered by a burglar, an opening
made in the door over the lock, by
means of a chisel which was eyidelaSy
stolen from some stone mason, 4
charge of powder inserted, and the
lock blown off. The hammers used
were taken from a blacksmith shop
near by. The burglar obtained but
very little for his pains, there being
only about seven dollars cash in it:
The amount was, however, appropria-
ted. To show his disgust at the mea-
gre amount of money obtained, the
crackman obtained a sheet of paper
from the desk, and expressed his feel.
ing thusly: "You old dog. Why
didn't you put up a sign that thay was
no money in the safe, and thin I
wouldn't crack it"-Pgmoaa Adser-
tiser.

ADvERrIsISa.-It is a poor argu-
ment that a merchant brings forward
in support of his plea that advertising
does not pay, when he tells you that
he never did such a thing, and does
not care about beginning now Dr.
Campbell says of advertising: "The
farmer plants his seed, and while he is
sleeping the corn is growing. So with
advertising. While you are sleeping,
or eating, ~conversing with one set of
customers, your advertisement is be-
ing read by hundreds and thousands
of persons who never saw you nor
heard of your business, nor never
would had it not been for your ad-
vertisement appearing in the paper"

The EIGHTH OF JANUARY FEsTI.
vAL.-The meeting of the democracy
of Ashland crunty, to celebrate the
time honored anniversary of the 9Th
OF January was a grand success
Nearly every township of the county
was represented by large delegations
and the democracy Of our town turn
ed out n msasss. We have been
promised a report of the proceedings
bad on the occasion, which, if received
in time, will appear in this number
Of our paper.
Waiting this report, however, we
cannot refrain from noticing the mag
nificent manner in which the host and
hostess of the Miller House discharg-
ed their duties on the occasion. As
soon as it was. known that mike"
was to be the caterer for the occasion.
expectations ran high, and every BODY
knew that "there was a good time
coming" but to say hat every BODY
was astonished at the munifcence and
taste displayed at the tables, would
but feebly express the feeling evinced
by gourmands and connoisseurs, who
were there TO do justice to the good
things" so beautifully provided. Il,
preparing for the feast, the host had
laid the country around under ~trib-
ute, and the forests of the west and
the mar cts of our neighboring cities
were made to provide the materials.
while the ininlitable Cuisine of the ex-
cellent hostess provided a repast, fit
for the Gods-or what is better yet
the democracy of Ashland county, to
partake of.
Never was a compliment more
woIthily won, han when the toast OF
"Our host and hostess" was read, it
was proposed that the entire audience
RESPOND, and three deafning cheers
were given.
Long may the 9Th of january wave.
Long may the proprietor of the Mil
Ter House and his amiable wife live
to provide for the future festivals /; and
may we be there to see.
