How Protection Ruins The
Farmer.

FARMER,
1t is a favorite resort of the
advocates Of foreign manufac-
lures to decry against Protec-
ton to American industry, on
the ground that it is oppressive
to all classes except the ore
enjoying the benefits of the
system, and especially to the
farmer. In other words, that
the tariff levied upon foreign
manufactures, is ''a tax pure
and simple" coming out Of the
consumer, without any com.
pensating equivalent. Hence
this class Of theorists held, that
whenever the tariff is increased
the burthens of all classes not
directly benefited are saddled
with just so many taxes, to be
made out of their business.
A. Maine correspondent OF
the New England Farmer has
given this theory a practical
test, which ought to be salts.
factory to anybody but a Free
Trade dreamer He compares
the profits of farming in that
state, under the Democratic
Free Trade policy Of 1S49, and
under the Protection policy
of 1866; stating that twenty
years ago he paid $25 tax; for
a hired man six. months, $50;
board for man, $50; newspa-
per, $3.50; total, S126.50 In
1869 he paid $50 taxes; hired
man, $3.50; board of man, $7s;
newspaper, $3.50: total, $780,
so. BY taking the ruling pr.
ces of his market he estimates
the amount of each of the
products named required in
1s49 and 1869 respectively, TO
pay his taxes, his hired man
and his paper, showing the diff.
ference in favor of 1869 as iol-
lows:
If he sells potatoes to pay
the bills, it will take 1913 bush.
els less now than in 1S49; if
corn is sold, II bushels less; il
hay, 2 tons less; if butter, 356
pounds less; if COWS, the price
OF 81 less. We thus see, that
so far from being injured, the
farmers are materially benefit
ed by the tariff. And yet, the
Free Traders would have the
farmers think that they are
ground to death by oppressive
duties, for the advantage of no.
body but few capitalists. '

OUR CAMPAIGN RATES.

We are very glad to state to our friends
that, thus far, our efforts to make the
CHRONICLE an interesting and acceptable
paper have met with unprecedented sue
cess. We do not think a paper was ever
begun under more favorable auspices than
have surrounded the CHRONICLE. We
make these statements not in a boastful
way, but because we know them to be
true. But in view of the importance of
the approaching Judicial and Congression-
al elections, and desiring to place the
DAILY CHRONICLE within the reach of
every voter having the advantages of the
daily mails, we have concluded to offer
our DAILY from now until after the Con-
grcssiORdi election, neTt NoUember, for the
sum of TWO DOLLARS. This is lower
than our daily rates, and we adopt it only
during the campaigns now near at hand.
The sum is so small that most of our
friends can well afford it, and we hope
they will respond to our offer by sending
us promptly every name they can, accom-
panied with the cash--two dollars.
We offer the WEEKLY CHRONICLE for
the same time at the small sum of fHy
cents

LETTER FROM CLINTON.

CLINTON, Tenn, June %, 1870.
Dear Chronicle Since my last, we have
had quite sensation in our town That sensa-
ton came in the shape of smallpox. 1t is said
that it came here from Campbell county, where
it is prevailing TO some extent at this time, or
was on the last report. You may imagine
the CONSERVATION that pervaded our village
when the unweicOme news first spread Bust
ness, for the time, was suspended, the country
people being afraid TO come to town, and the
citizens of the village seeming to suddenly dis
cover something very attractive at home which
demanded their immediate attention. Even the
grocery corner that prominent feature of our
town, seemed almost deserted Now and then
q lugubrious-faced passenger would be seen
standing wistfully upon the corner, for few
minutes and then would disappear. In fact the
conclusion arrived at by the thinking part of
our community, vas that the Clintonions 1.-THE
sick excepted We're resting from their la
bors,n O. fully expecting their works land the
smallpox to follow them After about week
of domestication, which some of our worthy
citizens really needed in order TO become ac-
quainted with their families, the excitement
abated somewhat Veteran loafers, whose
rubicund faces are one of our corner institution,
might be seen shaking each other cordially by
the hand and congratulating their escape
just as have imagined sailors recovered from
a wreck, or soldiers coming out of battle
The merchants faces no longer reminded one
of a yard-stick. Business again commenced on
the corner, and trade generally seemed working
up with new GHinius for its slight repose. But
now comes the richest part of the story After
all this excitement; after Esquire Cross had
been summoned TO make sanitary provision, - as
the law directs; - after every sinner had solemn-
ly taken himself to his home and perchance
had rubbed shameful amount of dust from the
lids of his Bible; after every house where there
was any sickness, had been adorned, not with
black Grape, but with "A red flag and everybody
had settled down the conclusion that we
were going to have quite time with the small
pox then it was concluded that the majority
of the cases were nothing but measles. 1t is
now very doubtful whether there has been
more than one case of smallpox in the town,
and it is said by some that his is only case OF
udrioLoid.
l suppose that most of our citizens are glad
that they have not had It, but / confess that |
am dubious whether 70 be glad that / have es-
capped or mad that have had so much trouble
for nothing, but L rather think | am
One more item of minor importance. During
our excitement We forgot 10 read the news. 1t
was rumored on our streets, just ut the out
break Of the epidemic, that our present Legsla-
ture was about TO cut the Gordian knot which
is holding Cuba in "durance vile" by hitchb,g
