with an aggregate capacity Of 1918 tuns,
having been built by our people during
the four years following the passage of
the Protective Tariff of 1924, against 1885 yes
sells, with an aggregate capacity Of 253,994
tuns, during the four years preceding. The
Richmond Wing did not then believe that Pro-
lection destroyed our Shipping.
But what has caused the recent decline of
our National tunnagef
/. The burning of hundreds of our vessels by
Semmes, Maffitt, and other Confederate cor
sairs;
2. The selling (real or sham of hundreds
more of them to foreign owners to screen them
from o similar fate;
3. The revolution in building whereby
Iron has been largely substituted for Wood as
a material While Wood was used, our mate
rial was much the cheaper; when Iron took its
place. Europe had a corresponding advantage
of us. That Protection is not in fault, IL
proved by the fact that the ship-building OF
British North America under Free Trade has
fallen off far more in proportion than ours
under Protection.

LAW.BREAKING IN HIGH PLACES.

Law BREAKING IN HIGH Places
There can be no more serious crisis In the
affairs of a State than when its highest officer
deliberately, openly, and shamelessly breaks
the laws he has sworn to execute. This was
threatened yesterday. proclamation Shy d.
erection of his Excelency John L. Hoffman,"
Governor of this State and COMMANDMENT.
Chief of its forces, states his preparations to
violate the law. Admitting, in this document
issued from the Headquarters of the First
Division of the National Guard, that measures
had been agreed upon between the officials
of the United States and the State, (which,
cit is confidently believed, will render all
military interference wholly unnecessary" he
yet ordered that the entire First Division, if a
signal from the beethoven be sounded, should
assemble at their aTmOries yesterday, ready
for instant service
The law of the State in this matter is ex-
plict and definite. The Revised Statutes say:
"NO parade or rendezvous of the National
Guard shall be ordered on any day during
(which general or special election shall be
"held, nor within five days previous to such
"election, except in cases of riot, invasion, or
"insurrection, or Of imminent danger thereof;
land if any officer shall order any such pa
"rade or rendezvous he shall forfeit and pay
"tO the people of this State the sum of $780,"
The law distinctly says that not even a rem
devious for the troops of the National Guard
shall be appointed on election day, "save in case
"Of riot instruction, or imminent danger
thereof" Gov. Hoffman expressly said that
measures had been agreed upon which would
make all military interference wholly unneces-
sary. Having thus admitted that the cOndi-
tions required by the law were not at all full
filed he Immediately proceeded to do precisely
what the law says he shall not do

NO. THANK YOU.

The London Spectator, discussing the use of
Z" Prince Dukes proposes among the public
| emplOyments in which the Marquis of LOrne
after he becomes the husband of Royal
Princess, will be peculiarly serviceable, that of
British ambassador at Washington. We most
earnestly hope the young man will stay at
home. We have no doubt that he is an excel
lent person; but an event so portentous as
the introduction of a Royal Princess into
Washington society is not to be contemplated
without terror The efiluence of titled
aristocracy, even of the humber sort, has a
painful effect upon the American character;
and Winter ut Washington, with Queen
VictOria's daughter presiding over the
Inequalities of fthe British Embassy
would be to sensible and thinking people
almost uncomfortable. We hate to be impolite
but the truth is, the women of this noble
Republic are not to be trusted in the society
of the children of royalty. They are too ready
to get upon their knees. What hideOus
arena of ignOble maneuvers the national CAPT.
tai would become when half the fashionable
women of the United States were there
scheming for the favors of the Princess Louise!
What envy would tear the bosoms of the fair,
Nilat NIdth WOuu SuOOt llOl CyCs,
what vulgar elation would follow every social
victory! Going to Washington would be
something like getting presented at court, and
we should have here at home, right
under our eyes, degrading our daily lives and
cOnvulsing our families, all the petty intrigue,
meanness, vanity, and establishment which
distinguished a certain section of the Ameri-
can colony in Paris during the palmy days
of the Empire. We prefer simple gentleman
like Mr.. Thornton to any such gorgeous en-
bassy as The Spectator is kind enough to pro-
pose for us. The Princess Louise would doubt
less be boon to some capitals, but not to
ours. She would, 80 to speak, take all the
starch out of the moral character of the Amer

A general engagement was fought yesterday
near Orleans between the French Army of the
Loire and the forces under Gen. Won Der
Tann The result has not yet been announced.
The French have been on the defensive since
their expulsion from Orleans and it was under
stood that the Germans displayed no DISPOSE
ton to attack them. Since the fall of Metz
the Germans have reinforced Won Der Tam,
and it is probable that the battle was forced
by him.

The riotous scenes at Marseilles have been
repeated, with even more violent demonstra-
tons and painful results, at Perpignan, sea-
port on the Mediterranean, near the Spanish
border. The Military Commandant, the Chief
of Police, the Mayor, and others were assassi-
mated in the most brutal manner by mob of
Red Republicans. At Grenoble, former
General of the Empire was mobbed, and would
have been murdered but for the aid of the
police. Baron Haussmann has been arrested at
Nice. In all the southern cities along the
Mediterranean coast like excuses mark a
change in public sentiment, and presage, we
dread to believe, the total decentralization of
France. The terrible consequences of further
civil discussions in France at this time, when
she suffers from invasion and the want of q
responsible, authorized government. cannot be

The armistice negotiations were broken OH
it seems, by the French Military Commander
in Paris, Gen. TrOchu, and, it is reasonable 10
suppose, from military considerations. what
these were we are left to surmise, with only
the slightest clue to the mystery 1t will be
seen that the German Governments PROPOSE
ton was on the basis of statu qno--the mill
tary movements to cease for the time, but the
STARVING out process" to continue unlnter-
ruptedly. All other points were conceded-the
freedom of the elections was guaranteed-but
the French insisted that Paris should be pro-
visioned during the armistice. When this con-
cession was denied, the negotiations were
broken off. The earnestness with which
this condition was urged indicates that
the city is short of provisions; but
the promptitude with which negotiations
were broken off when the concession was
refused, would seem at first glance to
indicate the opposite. But it betrays really
the desperate condition of the French in the
capital, and suggests the belief that they have
not provisions to last them until the cOnclu-
sion of the proposed armstice. In spite OF
the favorable statements which we have lately
had from Paris, it is more than likely that
this view is correct, and that the city cannot
hope to hold out to the end of the month.

fortresses have succumbed, one after another,

DUB CITY DEBT.

The World plIrpOsely misrepresents us in ask
ing, with reference to our statement OF the
City Debt:
"WilI 1t believed that THE TRIBUNE actually adds the
securities Of the sinking Fund and the trust account
debt to the total OF the funded city and county debt 80
az to mske total OF al 1891 which Is the truth
but OF ~, $40 TAI"
OF course it will not be believed, because 1T
il not true. We take it that if The Worfd
owes $4,000 for paper, $4,000 for labor, and
$4,000 for other services, that the concern Is
in debt $4,000; and that the debt remains the
same, although the assetssmay be millions. we
stated the debt on the authority of the emil
nent gentlemen who certified to the proper
keeping of the books of the Finance Depart
ment. They say that the totals are as fol-
lows:
