are frequently questioned as to the condition
and prospects OF this Road. Many are under
the impression that the Company do cot intend
to build it, while Others think it will be seid
out to some Com pany that viii run it in ano-
ther direction. We can give them no inios'
natiori, from our own knowledge. People
have cause to be suspicious of Railroad Com,

and know to be fixed facts. We cannot blame
them; but still, Railroad Companies often
have difficulties to overcome, that it Is not
prudent for them to com municate to the pub

Road will be pushed ahead in the Spring, as
soon as suitable weather can reasonably be
depended upon. They say the contractors
have pntil the first Of June to grade and tie
the Road to White Cloud, and that they will
come up to their contract. With this assu.-

average fully large enough for all kinds
Of power would be Is per cent. Fifteen
per cent of the total manufacturing cap
ital above given would be $15l ,4S8, 1857,
for the wages of machinery in 1860, as
compared with 1878, 878, ,966-the wages
of manuel labor employed in the man
ufacturing business.
But the value of manufactured pro-
ducts was, the same year, 81 1856, ,SG1,-
666. The wages of machinery was
only trife over eight per cent OF the
goods and wares produced. So, that if,
instead of demanding such enormous
wages as the Free Trader would have
us believe, the machines would be gen.
erous to the consumer, and work for
nothing and repair themselves, the re-
duction in the price of goods thus Sc
cured would be only eight per cent.
But as the machines will not work
for nothing and repair themselves, the
free traders have determined on reduc-
ing their wages by removal of duties
on iron and coal. The cost Of iron in
the construction of machines made
wholly Of that material will not aver
age over ten per cent of their selling
price. So, provided that iron were to
be obtained without any cost, machines
could be thereby cheapsned only one
tenth, and as the interest on the first
cost of machines, and the depreciation
which eventually necessitates the pur-
chase of new machinery are items in
the entire wages of machinery, which
perhaps may be estimated at ten per
cent Of capital invested, we find that
the reduction in the cost of manufac-
tured goods consequent upon the re-
duction of the wages of machinery
caused by getting the iron for nothing
at all, wOuld be only one-tenth of one
halt of eight per cent of the entire value
of manufactured products, or two-fifths
of one per cent.
We have already said enough on the
subject of the tariff on coal, about
which there has been such a hubbub.
There is no reason to believe that its
removal would affect the price of coal
in any appreciable degree.
This attempt to show that machinery
is overpaid and that the workingman
suffers thereby, deserves to be ranked
with the attempt to prove that the tariff
on salt-18 cents per 100 lbs.-must
inevitably render the luxury of salt
Goldfish inaccessible to the poor.

ening Congressman, if they don't re-
peal the franking privilege, that the
people will reform them by 'efecting
needed changes in both men and meas
ures, in a constitutional and decisive

affect great pretensiOns, but is general
ly understood that the supsrlatiYe 'we,
they SO imperiously WELD represents on

ment of their 'express-mail privilege
and the monopoly OF the old fogy As
sociate Press kilograms, like 'Haiman,
they seek the obstruction of any who
presume to rest within the shadow Of
the royal gates. But should Congress
obey their imperative orders, and pro-
hibit the free circulation ofCounty news

ton extended to the expreSs-mail, and
require all newspapers, thus forwarded,
to bear the proper stamps. Wed then
hear such squeak Ofanguish and gnash-
ing of tusks as would make Rome howl.
This silly whining and sniVeling, about
a measure more properly and irrevoea-
bly, buried in the Senate, is disgusting,
to say the least of it, and lily becomes
the assumed dignity of the city pwsss. -

From the Scientific Americana
The Wages of Machinery.

There is in the United States about
thirteen millions of laboring men, ,UOmen,
and children. There are also very
large number of laboriDg machines. 1t
is estimated that there is steam ma
chinery in the United States equal to
two million horse power, or more than
fourteen millions of full-grown men.
A large portion of fthis machinery works
day and night. 1t is never sick, never
idle,never goes on sprees, never strikes
1t always works, when required, up to
its full capacity and never tires. 1t is
not unreasonable to estimate the work
of the machinery is equal to that of
twenty-eight millions of full-grown in
dustrious men. It's evident, therefore,
that only one-third of the work of the
country is done by its Iaboring men, and
two-thirds are done by its IabOring ma
chinery. Is it not clear that the wages
of the laboring machinery constitute a
large portion of the cost of manufactured
goods than the wages of the laboring
men? Would not a reduction of the
wages OF the laboring machinery 90
further to reduce the price of goods and
facilitate competition than a reduction
of the wages of the laboring man. OF
course it would"
The above from THE Free Trader is a
fair sample of the ingenuity brought to
the support of the doctrine of free trade;
an ingenuity which expands itself in
concocting sophistical arguments to
mystify and delude those who have not
the time or the facts wherewith to test
their accuracy. We would only add a
single word to the above quotation ,and
that at the very end of il, "Of course il
,cOuM nOt," is the way we would read it,
and for the following reasons:
First, it does not follow that because
machinery does the largest portion of
the labor performed, that it does it at a
greater cost than that of The aggregate
manuel labor of the country. There is
no doubt that it does it OF much less
cost. 1t is not clear that the wages of
laboring machinery constitute large
portion of the cost of manufactured
goods than the wages of laboring men.
In 1860, the capital employed in the
United States, in manufacturing, was
81, ,O09, ,s55, ,7I5. The wages paid for
manuel labor amounted the same year
to SO, 7S, ,966. Twenty per cent of
capital invested will, on the average,
pay the entire current expenses of estab-
lishments driven by steam power, in
eluding the interest on the capital at
seven per cent, repairs and depreciation,
and exclusive of cost of the material
worked and the manuel labor employed.
We have purposely made large aV-
erage for steam-power manufactures.
where water power is employed the
cost Of running is much less, owing to
the reduction in the fuel account. An
