captured New Orleans; who negotiated ex-
changes of arms and ammuni.ious for "rebel'
cotton and sugar, with such marvellous
success; who seized specie and spoons for

Che Song Of the Shirt,

Our protective tariff contains specific
duty of cents per dozen spools of thread
OF 100 yards each, and an ad valorem duty
In addition of 30 per cent, making in ell
an ad valorer duty of rs per cent; or, to
put it in the common phrase, taking three
spools out of every four. Without "proteo-
tion," the housewife would pay for four
spools and get four; with protection" the
worthy lady pays for four spools and Ie-
ceves one. The other three are laid as q
sacri6ce-and Il sacrifice. by the bye, which
does not even benefit them very much-on
the sltars of divers Rhode Island and New
Jersey spool thread makers. These makers
are able to produce what is termed in the
trade three cord thread, by 10 means
desirable article, but are not able to make
the six cord thread which is first class. The
three cord home article can be afforded at
so cents currency per dozen spoo's, ana the
six cord foreign thread rules in England for
the same quality at 80 cents gold, or IN
currency about 33I cents. Now, considering
the much superior quality OF the foreign
thread, our women-i. e., those not taken
away from their sewing by struggle for
their "rights" cheerfully pay this
slightly increased prime cost, with the cost
of importation added, rather than use
the. domestic three cord, which is
really only fit for "sops !" bu. as such q
course would entail very slim sales
upon the Rhode Island and New Jersey
thread men, those worthy persons procure
protection" from Congress in the shape OF
the tariff above mentioned, tariff which
excludes the good foreign thread from our
shores and forces into use the slop.shop
hqme product. Buttons under this tariff
drop Off, seams cape, threads break, many q
man of decorous demeanor generally is
driven inte profanity only surpassed by
Mr.. Greeleys by some untimeous solution of
continuity in his garments, and many a

and bother by unnecessarily difficult sew
ing, Poor thread, with no chance OF better,
is the boon conferred BY our protective
tariff, and about the only benefit in this
regard it does confer. The duty being so
high there are but small importations, and
consequently little revenue foreign thread
being virtually under Chinese interdict
consumers are cut OF from So bstautisl and
forced to g poor article; and, finally, the
competition among the manufacturers is SO
great that they are forced to sell at figure
which yields but the smallest possible profit.
To be sure they are protected bnt the
protection profits them but little, though
robblng the treasury OF fair revenue on the
other entailing very great Inconvenience
