NEW HAMPSHIRE.
Grand Nrenen's Muster.

PORTSMOUTH, September 1.-THE
morning Of the second day Of the grand
tiremen's muster was beautiful. and at
an early hour The city was astir and the
streets thronged with fremen and Wis
itors. The trains this morning brought
large additions, and people from the
surrounding towns poured in, until the
streets were almost impossible. 1t is
estimated that there were fully three
thousand people besides the firemen in
the city.
The mammoth band concert was O
decided success, although few Of the
bands did not participate. Owing to
the preparations for the concert the
trial of engines did not begin as early
as was anticipated. One OF the engines
first in order, the Rhode Island, OF
Pawtucket, failed to put in an appear
ance and the Rollnstone, Of Fitchburg,
was the first to make the trial. A
strong northwest wind arose during the
trial which diverted the stream from
the platform which was so placed that
the engines were able to play against it.
The winners were as follows:
For first class steamers the only
prize, $1,000, was awarded to the steam
er City of Haverhill No. 2, Of Haver-
hill, Mass; distance Of stream lS6 feet
3 inches. For second class steamers
the first prize, $3.50, was awarded to
Eben. Simpson No 2, Of Biddleford,
Maine; distance Of stream 1873 feet 9
inches, and the second prize, 500, to E.
A. Straw No. 4, Of Waltham, Mass;
stream lS5 feet s inches. For hand
engines, the first prize OF 500 was
awarded TO Excelsior No. |, of Win.
chester, Mass; distance Of stream ~
feet ) inches. The second prize Of $50
was awarded to Tiger Lighter No. 4, OF
Lynn, Mass; distance Of stream l70
feet u inches
The Nave Rock Steamer company,
Of Boston, entered a protest against 6 giv-
ing the first prize to the Haverhlll
company, on the ground that the latter
had been originally entered as a second
class steamer At 5 o'clock this after.
noon there were dense crowds at the de.
pots, waiting for the trains to leave the
city. The regular trains were already
full when they arrived, and they were
unable to diminish the crowds in the
least. While waiting for the trains sew
eral free fights occurred, but they were
luelIed without serious consequences.

"PrOtection Cheapsns COinmOdi.
ties"

Such is the favorite text Of Mr..
Greeley AMI his disciples, who would
likewise have us believe in the tender
hearted patriotism OF monopOlies. One
proposition is as rational as the other
and both have received their fittest
comment in the conduct Of Messrs.
Powers & Weightman, and Mcssrs.
Rosengarten, the great manufacturing
chemists, in whose behalf Judge Kelley
retained a duty Of 45 per cent on qui-
nine, at the same time that he procured
Peruvian bark to be admitted free. As
49, -'--- of manufacture j. ppr.
rected, (this is the Greeley doctrine OF
protection,) our manufacturers will he
able to put the article to the American
people cheaper than it can be imported
duty free. The original duty OF 45 per
cent. on quinine was laid to offset the
increased cost Of alcohol, and the duty
of 20 per cent. on bark. Now, these
charges are removed entirely, and the
manu- acturing process for qulnlnr must
be assumed to be as far perfected ~ II
is reasonable TO expect they will ever
be. How stands the cheapne1s OF the
article? Mr.. David A. Wells shall
answer the question.
Previous to the breaking out OF the
Franco Prussian war, quinine could
have been imported from Europe free
of duty for $l.G5 per ounce. The
American price then ruled uniformly
at 81 % per ounce, or at the rate OF
$240, 1000 per annum. on an estimated
annual consumption OF at least lOO,,
000 ounces over and above any foreign
import. When, however, the Prussians
in their seige-opera,ions about Paris,
burnt the quinine factory OF PeletIer,
the largest in Europe, the American
manufacturers, not content with their
already ample profit and advantage,
Immediately advanced the price Of
1uinine, and it is now quoted stiff at
s. 40 per ounce, which, on a consurnp,
ton OF 100000 ounces, the duty being
now practically prohibitive, would give
an additional annual advantage or profit
OF S75, 200.
1t is in this fashion that Protection
cheapens commodities, and monopoly
reveals the gushing wealth OF its ten
derest OF hearts. When its cost on raw
material are cut down % per cent, anc
its tariff advantages amount already tt
a profit OF 25 per cent, it takes occa
sion OF a threatened scarcity, caused by
war, to cheaper" its goods 10y adding
l5 cents an ounce to the already exor
hitant price of an article OF vital ne
cessity, and compels the fever strickeI
people to recognize its tender-hearte'
patriotism to the tune OF SIS, 900 bonus
Such are the American interests W
are called on to protect Such tn
genial manufacturers to encourage,
whom an entire people are being re
duced to poverty-as Admiral Byni
was hung, in Voltsire's praise. "pou

A MOst..Brutal Affair.

CHICAGO, September. "a terrible
event occurred at the New Bridewell
House of Correction, near here, early
this morning. An old man, named
Michael Wrenn, prisoner, was.thrown
from the landing of the lookup, by
an officer named Dresser, and falling on
the stones below was instantly killed.
The prisoners were being taken from
the cells, to 90 TO work, and the old
man, who was upwards OF sixty years
old, wanted to 60 With the others
Dresser told him to get back, but he
insisted on going into the closet. Then
Dresser caught him by the throat and
in eudeavoring to throw him back into
the cell, pushed him over the landing
The affair has created the greatest ex
citement in this city.
There has been considerable trouble
of late in the affairs Of the BridewelI
Commissioners. The management o.
the Institution has been looked upon
with suspicion, and finally the Board
of Aldermen agreed upon three Com
missioners. Twelve OF the best citizens
of Chicago have been secured for the
coroner's jury by Captain Stephens anC
this afternoon an inquest was proceeded
with. Mr.. George B. Mansur, keeper
Of the Bridewell, and six other wit
nesses, testified in the case, showlns
that Dresser had frequently clubbed th'
prisoner and that he was a brutal, over
bearing fellow. At late hour th'
coroner adjourned the inquest until to
morrow. Dresser was for many yearr'
