A readius,msnt Of prices is clearly going
on, and going on actively. The evidences
are numerous. There are thousands Of la
borers out of employment in all Of the
northern States to-day, and the numbers in
crease rather than lessen. Many factories
have stopped, and many are doing only SO
much as Is necessary to keep the warkmen
together. Everywhere a reduction of wa-es
is going on-not from choice nor from de-
sire to increase profits, but owing TO tie
absolute imposaibility Of continuing bl.i-
ness at current rates of wages
Wheat and -four are lower than they have
been at any time since tie war began. Tli,
depreciation disqualifes the cereal section
from buyin. the goods of the east, and
prices Of goods must fall to fno a market
Strikes are Of no avail against the immutable
laws of supply and demand. and only com
plicate difficulties at the expense Of thas
who undertake them. The lessening Of
prices began with the article oi prime nee
ccssity; anu "a reduction Of fifteen per
cent. in wages can be clunterbalanced
by a corresponding increase in the pur-
chasing power of the residue. The
cost of articles necessary for living almost
invariably regulates the prices Of labor.
That it should do SO when prices are rising,
Is As natural n IL Is inevitable. tlat wage.
must fall when the prices of food and
clothing fall, is perhaps not quite 80 clear
TO all, yet it Is an equally certain rule.
The scale is likely now to be a sliding one
till specie payments are resumed, and gold
returns to It's old standpoint before the war
All but the spectators viii he glad when
6rm bottom is touched, and when the coun-
try resumes the condition of permanence, in .
wages and prices, which is one Of the ele- I
ments of true prosperity.

1t is doub.fal if what may he called the
sentimental argument for free trade ever OBJ
tanned much currency in Great Britain. The
impetus of thu; mighty movement which. a
score OF more Of years ago, swept protective
tariffs from the statute books of the kingdom.
and inaugurated an era Of free trade, was
not furnished by the philosophers. Cobdeu
might have stumpad England fir lifetime
without making converts to free trade, if he
had not shown the voters, by tie most ire
sistible logic, that the corn laws were eco
uomically unwise and mischieyous Peel op-
posed protection, notas the enemy. but as the
advocate Of national selfshness. When he
carried through Parliament the repeal Of pro-
tective tariffs in Great Britain, he had a
keen eye to the interests Of the British Ex-
chequer Even john Bright in a speech the
other day on the subject of free trade, dwelt
almost entirely upon the financial arsu-
ment : 4 fact which shows that the
conscientious Quaker can descend from
the lofty throne Of his Imagination to discuss
the pounds and pence like any vulgar Briton
The free traders in England are less indebted
20 the moral philosophers than to the politi-
cal economists.
If the question OF protection be once taken
out of the domain OF morals. and relocated
to that of political economy, it becomes one
of science instead of casuistry; and as sach
is susceptible of different answers. TIE laws
or economical science are not invariabie.-or
rather their effectiveness is largely dependent
on circumstances. Apples fall in obedience /
70 ,ae laws of gravitation all over the world
the Laws of optics, mathematics, chemistry;
and the other exact sciences are universal. |

propositions for any country, that will an l

swer without modification for every other
country. lie must have regard for national
situations, facilities for business, conditions Of
the countries, extent Of resources and the
progress of their Development. and many
other considerations, not excepting the vary
ing demands Of human nature itself. All
this is simply saying that political economy
Is not an exact science, and that the princi-
pies and laws which apply in Great Britain
may need essential modification when they
arc introduced in other countTiss
If it is foolishness on the part of protec-
;ionists to denounce free trade as a d" British
invention, " it is equally unwise to accept as
universal truths the ut.crances Of Bright and
Peel, or 30 regard the successful working Of
a commercial regulation in Great Britain as
evidence that it would w5.k with the same
success eyeryw here. There i- no doubt, We

profitable to England. But be who argues

cumstances Of the two countries, might nos
