Henry q. Fritz.


HIS PERSONAL HIsroRY-BURIED ON MONDAY NExT.
Mr.. Henry @. Fritz, who was killed almost in
stantly, by the R. R. collision was born in New
York city, and resided there until he obtained
his majority Removing TO Philadelphia, he en-
barked in the manufacture Of morocco, and
Amassed considerable wealth, but through the
misconduct Of his partner, the firm failed and he
was reduced TO limited circumstances.
After the failure, he served in the capicity Of
Superintendent for VIM. Amer in Philadelphia,
until 1866, when he removed to this city and
Acsed "a superintendent in the factory now oper-
ated by John G. Baker. He remained here, how
ever but a few months, when he became Su-
perintendent of Bush, Clark x Co.'S factory,
which position he held till his death.
Mr. Fritz was always a fayorite with the work.
men in the factory, aud he possessed the esteem
and unlimited confidence Of his firm. One Of
them remarked to us this morning, that his
death was q severe loss to them, He was a man
Of strict integrity, genial. knd-heArted, a
man Of honorable Intentions and strictly
moral character. So tenacious was he
to the responsibility resting upon him to dis
charge his financial obligations arising from the
failure OF his firm that he paid every dollar OF
his part OF the firm debt, having made the last
payment about four years ago. This money
was saved from his earnings.
His remains will be conveyed to Philadelphia
on MordAy at 10 80, and be inferred in Laurel
| Hill cemetery. There will be no funeral servi'

Nature seldom produces q man so good, and
circumstances not often place him so itly,
Just in the niche he was ordained 70 nn,n
tAAt on his departure from his position, the va
cAncy cannot be measurably well supplied. Yet
something very near to an exception to this rule
is presented in the case Of Secretary Boutwell,
and the Treasury Department. His appoint
ment, hailed with qualification by the public, has
proved one Of the very best that President Grant
has made. His policy, though criticised by spe-
ciAl financial interests, which might hAYe thriyen
better had Mr. Boutwell, schemed for private ad-
vantage instead Of nobly administering the finan-
ces for the good of the whole people, has endured
the test Of nearly four years and almost outlived
opposition. NosecretAry of the Treasury, those
possibly excepted who had charge during the
rebellion, ever had so tremendous a burden OF
labor and responsibility, and yet has caused less
real dissatisfaction. The opposition to him,
feeble as it is, has been manufactured, facti-
tious, and insincere.
Besides his euccess as an administrator, one
more fact, equally important, stands out in bold
relief. This is the unquestioned integrity of the
man. In all the acrimonious disputes, among
all the many scAndAlous charges against Presi-
dent Grant and his Administration none have
ever been manufactured against Mr.. Boutwell,
that did not die as soon as they were uttered. MOI
one has lived long enough in the public consid
GRAFTON to undergo discussion. The public COD
fdence in this honest citizen has been so grea
that ISLANDERS against him were withered ant
paralyzed before they winged their flight
The loss Of such an officer 1t is difficult to suita
bly, and completely supply. There are .othe
good men in the .coHntry-multitudes thAnl
Heaven as honest as Mr.. Boutwell, and hun
dreds as well endowed by Nature. But wher
can we find the very man in whom We may hAv
the confidence that we. have now learned +
place in him?
These considerations are vital, at this moment
because Mr.. Boutwell, is prominently nAmeC
to succeed Yice-President Wilson, in the Senate
Undoubtedly, he will add weight and ability Il
that body. We shall rejoice to see him there
But he cannot fill both the Senatorial chair, an,
the Cabinet position, and how can the countr
spare him from the latter7

MEETING OF THE MANUFACTURERS NATIONAL IN
CHANGE, IN NEW YORK.
The semi-annual meeting of the Morocco
Manufacturers National Exchange was held in
New York, on the 1lth inst. The following OIL
cors were elected for 1872 -
President, M s. Kerrigan, of New York.
Vice President, James Scott, OF Wilmington ;
B. +. Clements, of Lynn, Mass.
Secretary, Samuel y. Jones, of Philadelphia.
Treasurer, II. M. Warner, of New York.
The most important subject under consider
alton was tho effort set on foot by some OF the
New England shoe-manufacturer to have the
duty on finished leather reduced, if not abolished
This effort was discussed. and Mr.. James Scott
said that in his opinion this was of the worst
blows ever aimed at their trade. He showed
that the present duty Of 30 and So per cent. had
fostered the trade, which was now assuming a
fairly prominent place among American indus
tries, and that the vast improvement in the quail
ity Of this leather since the war was mainly due
to the fact that the protection afforded had
enabled thom to give IL more attention and care.
1t was useless for them to expect to compete on
equal terms with the cheap labor Of foreign
countries, and removal Of duties would force
every manufacturer Of morocco, calf or sheep
skin in the United States to close business.
The following remonsTapce was read. II has
received the signature of nearly every manufac-
tUrer in this line:

from the importation of leather and manufac-
lures of leather is nearly four millions Of dollars
and, in the opinion of your petitioners, the pres
ent duty is the correct standard for obtaining

The One Term Principle.
ALEXANDER HAMnToN's OPINION.
From the Independent.l


Alexander Hamilton, one Of the brightest
stars Of the Revolutionary age, was a member
of the Convention that drafted the Constitution
Of tho United States. He was one OF the writer's
of those memorable letters published soon after
the adjournment of the Convention, and design
ed to explain the provisions of the Constitution
and commend it to the confidence Of the people.
Number seyenty-two Of the Federdlist, written
by Alexander Hamilton, contains his views sin
regard to the re-eligibilty of the President.
The conclusion to which he comes after CANVASS
ing the whole question, ia expressed in the fol-
lowing words:
There III an excess OF refinement in the idea
Of disabling the people to continue in Office men
who had entitled themselves in their opinion,
10 appreciation and confidence; the advantages
of which are at best speculative and equivocal,
and are overbalanced by Disadvantages far more
certain and decisive"
For this opinion he gives five reasons, which
We state as follows, without their application
by the author:
81. One i'll effect of the exclusion (uamely
from re.eligibility) would be diminution of the
Inducements to good behavior.
~. Another ill-effect Of the exclusion would
he the temtpation to sordid views, to peculation,
aud in some instances to usurpation.
-. A third i'll effect of the exclusion would
he depriving the community of the advantage
oi the experience gained by the chief magistrate
in the exercise of bis office.
II. fourth ill-eifect of the exclusion would
DO TIE banishing men from the stations in which
III certain emergencies of the State their pres
enee might be Of the greatest moment to the
lHblic interest or safety.
"j,A fifth ill-effect of the exclusion would be
that il would operate constitutional inter
dietlon of stability in the administration"
These points are expanded, and brought out
in their full force, with the mastery ability and
statesmanlike logic for which Alexander Hamil-
ton was so distinguished. Those of our readers
who feel an interest in this question, and can
convently turn to the Federdlist, will receive no
harm by perusing tins letter from the of one
Of the profoundest thinkers Of any age.
