course. Such obstruction and isolation would
effectually do the work of protective tariff,
by giving the manufacturers of the west
monopoly of the homo market. But the West
has always acted, and will always continue to
act on the idea that free and cheap inter
course with the outside world is the main Gle
ment of its prosperity. Their section has
been developed in proportion as means MS Oh
intercourse have been multiplied. Ihey
have always felt that the greatest OF their
wants is easy access to distant markets; and
it is all the same to them whether intercourse
is obstruoted by physical barriers or by pro
tective tariffs, the operation OF Dotn Deing
precisely alike.
The chief industry of the South admits OF
no protection. There is no part OF the world
which can compete with it in the production
of cotton. The South produces this great
staple In such abundance that it supplies the
consumptjop of q great part of the world.
This bounty of nature, this unrivalled advan-
taoe Of soil and climate, would be of compa-
rafivelv little value without free access to
other markets than our own. When you talk
to the Southern people about the necessity of
protecting home industry, they will deride
YOU. When they send cargo of cotton to
England, will industry be employed and pro-
tected by compelling the ship to come back
in ballast instead Of earning freights on q
the shippers of the cotton be protected or
benefited by paying fifty per cent duties on
the return cargo, and losing that proportion
of the fruits of their industry? The goods
which they import in exchange for their
cotton are as much product of home in
dustry as are the same kind of goods manu-
factured in this country. If seventy hands
employed on cotton plantation can bring
into New York warehouse as much cutlery
as O hundred hands employed in making cut
lery in the United States, there is no sense or
Justice in taxing the plantation labor for the
benefit of the factory labor. They are equally
home labor, and the country is most benefited
by that which yields the largest returns in
consumable articles. At any rate, policy
will never find acceptance in the South
which prevents Southern industry from re.
ceiving the full price of its products. And
with the South and the West combined in o
solid free trade phalanx, the days OF protection
are numbered. Its total overthrow viii
speedily follow the reapportionment under
the census of this year.

RELATION OF TARIFFS, IMPORTS
AND CURRENCY
From the N. Y. Tribune.

From the NJ Y. Tribune.
Senator Fenton, in his speech on the Cur
rency bill, delivered on the 25th of January,
places great stress upon the remarkable con-
currence of the quantity of foreign imports,
and the amount of the currency in circulation,
as they are shown in our financial and COM
mercial history, furnishing statistics in proof
of the close connection in the two most nota-
BILE periods of expansion Immediately preced-
ing the revulsions Of 1887 and 1857. In his
tabular statement he embraces both circulation
and deposits, and his imports also embrace
specie. Even with this complication his
figures sustain his general averment that
there is close relation between our imports
and the volume of our circulation, when no
such causes as the necessities of the Treasury
in war and the recent vast expectation of
public securities disturb the affinity between
them.
The relation of concurrence has held won
derfully in our experience from the close of
our last war with Great Britain to the begin
ming of the Rebellion; but the Senator, we
think, is somewhat in error in holding that the
| expansion of the currency is the cause OF, or
| preeedes, excessive importations; and espe-
| cially in error in saying that "the bearings of
the tariff do not touch this point" We pro.
pose to show, on the contrary, that, from the
year 1928 down to 1860, through the periods
of two protective and two free-trade tariffs,
in regular alienation, first, that the rates oi
customs duties rule the volume of the foreign
imports; second, that the volume or value OF
the imports rules the amount OF the currency
and all its consequences; ana thirdly, tha

RICKETTY LEGISLATURES IN THE
SOUTH.
Efonn The n. Y. Herald.

From the ~ Y. Herald.
The reconstructed Legislatures in the South
are not a source of pride to the Republican
party. Ben Butler himself could not look
upon them and say truly, in his benevolent
way, ''Bless ye, my children" Greeley no
doubt execrates and curses them in his heart
Of hearts, while Sumner alone, whose heart
delights in war and strife, may be able to
look on with inward satisfaction. The
Louisiana Legislature is engaged, it would
seem, in general game of grab. The Gov
ernor from his own statement, seems to be
the only honest public official in the State,
and he is so unexceptionally honest that he
refused one ndredthousand dollars in bribes
merely for signing bills. The dusky men,
bers, besides, have licensed all sorts of Sun
day games, of which Southern darkies are
SO fond, until it is reported that the prin-
cipal streets of New Orleans are lumi-
nous with signs of ''Faro, Keno, etc.,
Played Here" In the Florida Legisla-
ture the little game of impeachment has
been played again, the Governor being the
party on trial. He was acquitted, but he
telegraphed Immediately to his representative
in Congress to say that all the Federal radical
Office holders worked solidly against him. The
Alabama Legislature, with heavy carpet-bag
majority, has been quarrelling with the Gov
ernor over the proper mode of spelling; the
North Carolina Legislature and her Governor
and Auditor, between them have placed the
credit of the State in danger; Mississippi
threatens to put the Senatorial radicals in q
| dilemma by sending a colored member 10 the
United States Senate; the Arkansas Legisla-
ture and Governor Clayton had to carry on a
| guerilla warfare for months before they could
secure their positions, and Georgia-well,
when we speak of Georgia even Philosopher
Greeley's capacity for swearing fails to do
justice to the subject.
This is a very poor showing for four years
of reconstruction. The system pursued by
the radicals aimed especially at bringing the
States back so thoroughly Republican that
they would never give us any more Demo-
cratic trouble. But even this has not sue
ceeded. The States are only Republican for
the moment. The present Legislatures are
enough to blot out all the Republicanism in
the South, and the radical leaders in Con-
gress seem to know it, for they have tried to
patch Virginia together so as to be sure Of
her, and are still trying to patch Mississippi
in the same way. In fact, the whole recon
struction system has resulted in q thing OF
shreds and patches that the radicals cannot
trust They fear that Reed, of Florida, is 6
broken Reed; that the radicalism of Smith
of Alabama, is mythical; that Holden, o
North Carolina, does not feel much beholder
to the party; that Bullock, of Georgia, il
likely to gore his own friends, and that War
mouth, of Louisiana, like Dawes, is talking
too much out of school.

The secret OF profitable advertising Is to adj
vertise regularly, but to change the form of the
advertisement frequently 50 that IL may be con-
finually attractive An advertisements which In
Inserted for three or six months soon becomes
familiar with the regular reader, who passes IL
by without notice. But If a fresh one il often
presented 1t catches his eye and is read. 1t Is a
great mistake to suppose the advertisements in
paper are never noticed unless they cover
large space 1t is the short paragraphs which
are the more attractive and are read three times
where an advertisement column In length is
read once. And ss rule, ninety-fve readers
in hundred nowadays read the short sharp
business advertisements in a live newspaper
just As regularly automatically as they do the

There Is good ground for congratulation in
'ne iset That the best and leading ladies in soci-
cry IN TINS country, and in England and France
rs vel, have united in a determination to resist
tne EFFORTS just now made by dressmakers to
discard the cleanly and convenient short walk
ing Dress, and bring into use again the long,
nitn-coilectine trains formerly in vogue. Not
only this, but, while they are at it, they propose
10 resist also the extrayagant demands OF the
modstes IN other directions, and will move for
p iainer skirts and less elaborate trimming than
nave heretofore been required; 50 that there
viii be substantial saving, not only I'm the first
Cost Of dress material, but also in the expense
