A Competitive Tariff.

In last weeks issue of the Athens Jour
nal, the editor of that paper endeavors to
define his position on the tariff question,
and gives us his idea of competitive
tariff" which he is in favor Of. Here is
about the gist of what his idea of this
kind of tariffs:
"With too high a tariff, foreign man
features are prohibited from our markets
and without competition, the people, the
consumers are absolutely in the power,
and at the mercy Of our home manu-
facturers.
His notion seems to be to place just
enough tariff on foreign manufactures as
to allow their Importation into this Coun-
try on terms of perfect equality with
our own-neither let the tariff be high
enough to exclude these articles nor low
enough to allow foreign manufactures
to under sell our own. That is his po-
sition, and his idea of competitive
tariff'-all of which is clearly wrong
The danger to the consumer from a
protective tariff, is purely imaginary, as
sufficient amount of home capital will
be invested in any paying branch Of
manufacture to create competition and
supply the consumer with the article at
fair rates. What we require is absolute
protection 10 home industry, and the en-
ployment only of home capital in that
competition which is requisite for the
protection OF the consumer against the
extortionate demands of unscrupulous
monopolies. We do not need the em-
ploymsnt of foreign capital in this coun-
try to keep down prices. We have mill
lions of surplus capital of our own now
lying comparatively idle, which would
gladly seek these new channels of trade
if the products of foreign capital were
excluded from our market. Right here
in the valley of Hooking, our manutac-
turers feel the effects of this suicidal free
trade policy, and will continue to feel
it more and more each succeeding year,
so long as they are brought into com.
petition with the products Of cheap la
Dor and foreign capital
We, too, are in favor af a competi-
tive tariff, but we would have our own
citizens as the competitors, and our own
capital as the competing medium. We
believe this to be the kind of tariff the
people want, and we are very sure it is
the one which will best inure to their
interests and save them from the grasp
Of the extortioncr-Athens Messenger.

On Friday morning last, a gentleman
dressed in the height of fashion, and
who had arrived at the Northern Cen
trail Depot from some point North, rush
ed up to the baggage-rOom, and in a
peremptory manner demanded that his
baggage should be given him in pref
eranco to all other customers. His man
ner was somewhat offensive, and when
informed by plainly clad but humor-
Gus looking son of the Emerald Isle
that he must have patience and wait
his turn, he turned upon the advisor
and imparter of knowledge with: "Sir
you are an ass" The honest Irishman
gazed at him an instant, and then re-
piled; and you, sir, are an ape and
what pity it is, that when we two
were made bastes, that ye wasn't made
an illiphant, so that ye could have yer
blasted trunk under yer nose all the
time" The impatient trunk owner
could not withstand the roar of laughter
which was indulged in by the by stand
ers and handing bis check to the hack
man, beat hasty retreat from the depot.

Interview of Rear Admiral Porter
with the Haytieu Au tborities.
New YORK, March 2.-The Worlds
Port-au-Prince correspondent says that
Rear Admiral Porter, commanding the
United States North Atlantic squadron,
entered the harbor of Port.au Prince
on the 9th inst, with the flag ship Sew
ern aud the irOn-clad Dictator, and
upon landing had an interview with the
Hsytien authorities. He announced
that the United States had formed an
alliance with President Baez, of San
Domingo, and that he had been sent
there to say that any aid given to Ca
bral would be considered as an act OF
hostility towards the United States aud
would provoke hostilities in return: that
the United States Government was de-
Lermined to use all its power to
prevent any aid being given to Cabral,
and he had been sent to these waters
with sufficient force to carry the deter
mination into execution and that he
would carry out his instruction where
this succor was carried to Cabral under
the Haytien or any other flag. This
measure created much excitement in
Hayti aud was regarded in. some quar-
ters as an act of war. The Admiral,
after the interview, steamed off to Cape
Haytien. The Haytieus assert that
English vessels are conveying support
to Cabral with the concurrence of the
British Admiral and that if Admiral
Porter is consistent in warning off all
sympathizers with Cabral he will neces-
sarily come in conflict with the British
in those waters.

DISEASES OF THE BLOOD.

1.-THE life of the flesh is in the Blood" is a
Scriptural maxim that science proves to be true:
The people talk of bad blood. as the cause OF
many diseases, and like many popular opinions
this Of bad blood is founded in truth. To say
nothing of those humors that are hereditary, we
can easily see how the Blood may become bad
from the imperfect Digestion or failure Of ex.
erection, and how this may influence the process
of Nutrition, and thus influence all the func-
tional activities Of the body.
The symptoms Of bad blood are usually quite
plain-bad Disestion-causes imperfect nutri.

condition soon shows itself in rOuJhneSs Of the
skin, then in ERUPTIvE and LUCRATIVE diseases,
and when long continued, results in serious
LESSONS of che Brain, Liver, Lungs, or urinary
apparatus. Much, very much, suffering is caused
by impure blood. 1t Is estimated by some that
one fifth Of the human family are effected with
scrofula in some form.
When the Blood is pure, you are not 40 liable
