Last Thursday morning party of 16
Of our leading citizens started westward
as brother Treat said, in search of a rail
road, and reached Appleton about
o'clock P. NJ, where they were heartily
welcomed by many Of the most prominent
residents of that city. The greater part
of the delegation put up. at the Levake
House, the remainder at George Kreic's
Hotel In the evening they were visited
by large number of the business men Of
Appletonamong whom were Mayor Rich
mond, Messrs Gilmore, Hartman, Buck,
Ryan, West, Hutchinson and Blood
these Gentlemen comprise the Railroad
Committee in whose honor the citizens of
Appleton have entrusted the management
of their Railroad interests It would be
impossible to give full report Of all the
sayings at that meeting, but our Dele
gates are fully satisfied from what they
saw and heard. that the people of that
city are unanimous In favor of railroad
to this place, that they are earnest and
undivided on the subject, and ready at
the earliest opportunity to join hands
and means with Manitowoc in an effectu-
al effort for this much desired object.
The people Of Appleton also expressed
very plainly that they have ceased to be-
lieve that the road will be built under the
old organization and peremptorily decline
to offer any aid while it thus continues
The following day our Delegation visited,
under the guidance of the Mayor and
many other friends, various manufactur-
ing establishments and among others the
Touring Mills of Capt. Conkey, the
Woolen Mills Of Hutchinson & Co., the
Barrel mandatory of J. o. Brewster
and the Paper Mills of Mayor Richmond.
The Conkey Mills have the capacity of
making 600 barrels of -four per day, the
other factories employ from 25 to so
hands each, and all of them are doing a
fourishing business and to a much greater
extent, than our Delegates had formed
any previous idea.
On returning. our Commute came by
way of Menasha, where they met several of
the leading citizens of that place but not
the encouragement and unity as at APP
pleton, Menasha seemed to be jealous
of Appleton and not disposed to do any
thing for the ManitoWoc Road until she.
had secured the so-called Land Grant
road to terminate there
Our Delegates left Menasha next morn
ing and reached home in safety, highly
pleased and sincerely grateful for the
kind reception and generous entertain
ment they had received by their new
friends the gentlemanly residents of the
City Of Appleton.

Justice to Publisher and to Printers

It is q remarkable fact, which the.pub
lie at large may, at first, consider I'M
possible, that the United States laws,
SO far as they bear on printers and pub
fishers, actually favor England at the ex-
pence of America. In plain language
Congress pays bounty to English print
ers and publishers, in order that they
may break down American industry, in
the same branch of trade While nearly
every other interest is directly protected,
American printers and publishers are in
directly Disseminated against y
The reader viii ask in amazement, how
this cam be. Theans is, that while every
article used in manufacturing a book is
heavily taxed, foreign books, are allowed
to come In under duty, comparatively
so trihing, that it is cheaper, in most
cases, to make the book abroad, than to
manufacture it here. Not book leaves
the press that does not pay at least, IF
teen separate taxes to the government
The consequence is that book can be
ordered in England and imported into
the United States that will not cost, af-
ter paying duties, freight and all other
charges. more than half of what SINH
lar book manufactured here would cost.

Resumption is certain when the green
backs are funded, Because there will be
no other currency than the $500. OOO. 900
issued by the National Banks, which
being near the natural amount required
by the business of the, country, will be
at par with gold but to make the mat
ter sure, Congress should provide that
the banks shall retaiu all the specie re-
ceived for their coupons until they re-
sune payment, and prohibit them from
any part of their legal reserve It will
be found however practically, that as the
volume OF currency is brought down to
Its natural limit. much of the specie
forced out of the country by the expan.
sion will be returned, 4 as was the
case in 1857 and So, while all our own
gold products will be retained at home,
and thus the banks without effort or ex-
pense will accumulate all their necessities
require. @
ECONOMY OF THE MEASURE. 4
fit be objected that the foregoing
plan obiges the government to pay in
terest on Its own notes-we reply
such result IS unavoidable when
ever the greenbacks are funded at all,
as In form they must ultimately be.
The government has promised to pay
Its notes, and as it Is not able to dischar &c
them with specie, it is bound in com
mon honesty to pay interest until it
can. t-
The government is supposed to gain
about So, DOC, 900 per annum by circu-
lating It's own notes, but as a matter of
fact 1t looses much larger sum annually
because the expense of the army, navy
and other departments of the public SER
vice are SO much increased by the high
prices which the redundant currency
creates, that the loss far exceeds the
gain
Besides all this, when the currency is
restored land not before), will the public
credit be SO established that our four and
half per cent bonds can be sold at par
and thus save over thirty millions of an
nual interest. What is more. unless the
country is to suffer for an indefinite per-
Iod. all the disgrace and loss inseperabIe
from an irredeeMable currency, some
definite and efficient measures must be
adopted to secure the restoration of the
specie standard, and [ submit with great
Difference, but entire confidence, that no

so many desirable elements as the aboye
1t has the full approval of many Of the
best minds in the nation-men in trade,
in manufactures, in banking and other
occupations connected with the business
affairs of the nation-and is more likely
to secure the approval Of Congress than
any other that has hitherto been present
