MIR. ATKINSON on Iron.

We print herewith letter of Mr.. Edward
Atkinson-One of our most eminent Free
Traders which deserves and will reward
thoughtful attention. Let us consider some of
its positions.
|. Mr.. A. frankly admits Gas no Free-Trader
ever did before the. correctness of our posi-
ton that you do not prove that an imported
article would be cheaper under Free Trade by
deducting the duty paid from its present
price. On the contrary, he comedies that,
if we were this day to make Pig Iron free,
aud thereupon call upon Great Britain for a
much larger quantity of that staple, her prices
would be sweled Gas we have just SEEM by
this additional demand, so that we should
probaby pay as much for foreign cost alone
as we now pay for cost and duty together.
This is q most important concession, which
we trust will be borne in mind.
III. But Mr. A. urges that though the abso-
hte cost of Pig Iron to our consumers were
not reduced by Free Trade, its relative cost
would be. Our iron workers would then have
their raw material as cheap as their British
rivals, and so could make Bars, or Steel, or
Anvils, or Log Chains, on a footing Of equal
ity with those rivals.
but we reply 10 ths that any Staple lS anu
must be cheaper in the country which pro-
duces than in distant land which obtains it
by importation. And the fact that we import
small quantity of Iron at low freights
(using it as ballast for light fabrics), by no
means proves that we could import much
larger quantity at similar rates. On the con-
trary, it is morally certain that, if we were
importing all or nearly all, the Iron we use,
Iron freights would be much higher in the
average than they now are. And every mile
that the Iron was taken inland from our ports
would increase its cost to the consumer.
Here il q point which Free Traders habitu-

t,e Government, ard Loyalty OF Claimant.
In tbe mean time. under the Constitution and
tho laws OF Congress, President Lincoln
had issued q Proclamation Of Pardon ana
Amnesty TO all, except certain specified classes
IN % doing he pledged the faith of the nation
that those who came forward and took the
prescribed oath should be restored TO the full
rights of citizenship. Multitudes did take
that OATH loyal and disloyal alike But when
they came into the Court of Claims, the only
court where it was possible for them
to reclaim their seized property, they
were met with the "Drake Amendment"
which had been passed for this purpose ana
which finally excluded them by providing tna''
in all cases pending in the Court OF Claims,
evidence of pardon OF amnesty should not be
taken in support of any claim, but should be
accepted as proof of disloyalty. And this
monstrOus enactment was in the face OF fhe
Presidents Proclamation of Amnesty, which
was authorized by act of Congress as well as
by the provision of the Constitution which gives
the President power to pardon tor all OIL
lenses against the United States, except for
impeachment" Appeal was taken to the
Supreme Court of the United States, and,
after many weary years of waiting, the Drake
Amendment, as might have been anticipated,
was declared unconstitutional. 1t IS now
sought to replace this unjust and unwise legis-
lation by similar proposition, differing IN
words, and which, il it does not evade the
ruling of the Supreme Court, shall, at least,
obstruct tho cases which have arisen under
the Amnesty Acts, and so weary out the claim
ants by the laws delay.
Congress seeks to go behind the plain pro-
visions of the Constitution and existing
statutes, demanding that after the loyalty OF
a claimant has satisfied the court, it must be
established by legislative standard. This is
unjust and oppressive because it delays and
defeats the payment of debts which have been
already passed upon by competent tribunal
under statutes which have existed for eight
years. 1t is unconstitutional, because er post
facf0, and it increases the punishment
of the rebel. 1t is constructive repu-
diation, violating the oft-repeated pledges OF
the National Government to those who sur
rendered in good faith. And it is specially
unjust in discriminating against those VINO
have thus been caught between two enact
ments, leaving in possession those whose claims
have been paid already, and cutting off those
who are yet unpaid. Such proposition should
not be entertained by Congress, and we earn
estly trust that the Morrill, Amendment, which
has lust passed the Senate by the casting vote
of the President, will fail in the Lower
House
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1872-05-02
CONCTRVCTIVE REPUDIfTION

The attempt to evade decision of the
United States Supreme Court which has just
originated in the Senate, in the passage of
the Morrill, Amendment, Is another Illustration
of the difficulty with which many gentlemen
in Washington understand that they are not
the entire Government. The substitution
of the Presidents will for written law
in the courts of Utah, the defiance of all
law and Department regulations in the sales
of arms by the Ordnance Bureau, and the
illegal reopening of the Secor claims by the
Secretary of the Navy, are all evidences of
the growing spirit of willfulness with which
our Government is administered by men who
will not, or do not choose to, remember that
they are not The State. OF piece with this
general work Of Capitalization is the attempt to
reGnact the unconstitutional Drake Amend
"ment," Overstepping the boundaries of the
Legislative Department and trenching on that
of the Judiciary. One would suppose that the
failure of that bit Of revengeful legislation
were enough to conclude the whole matter
but it seems that Mr.. Conbling and his allies
propose to legisate above the Supreme Court,
and SO obstruct, if they cannot break down,
the movements of justice.
The sO-called Drake Amendment had its
origin in desire to meet and defeat certain
class of cases arising under the Amnesty
Proclamation. In December, 1894 Gen. Sher-
man seized quantity of cotton at Savannah,
under authority of the Act of March IL, 1868,
relative to captured and abandoned property,
and sent it to New-YOrk, where it was sold,
and the proceeds, less enormous commits
sions to somebody, were put into the
Treasury. Congress, By laws passed previously
to this March 70, 1862 and July Q, 1861 had
given owners of such seized property remedy
in the Court of Claims, where they might
secure their share Of the proceeds. less interest
taxes, and expenses. But they must prove
three points: Ownership, Seizure and Sale by

ENGLAND'S POOR.

A correspondent seeks our answer &c this
question:
"Would England have better and cheaper bread
In twenty years time if duty Of five or fifty per cent
wero laid on imports OF grain and If she did would
her people be prosperousi"
Ansoer.-One should have studied the con-
ditiOn of n foreign country very carefully and
thoroughly before attempting to answer such
a question as the above. That England might
wisely and proiitably increase her average
Wheat crop from % to Sc bushels per
acre. we cannot doubt. This would involve
deeper tillage, more fertilizers, more thorough
culture, &C., and thus give employment on her
soil to twice the present number of laborers.
We Judge that there are millions Of acres of
poor to middling grass in Great Britain. that
ought to grow grain, and under skillful man
asement, might be made to do so with
profit. No people, rs n whole, has ever yet
farmcd so thoroughly rs it should do.
Still, we believe that millions Of British
artisans, factory hands, laborers, &C., ought to
migrate to this country to Australia, and other
distant lands, taking their trades with them,
and so carrying their arts to the oCd-growers
instead of having the food brought to them.
This would insure immense economies OF
transportation and better rewards for both
agricultural and manufacturing labor. And
this IL our solution of the condition Of England

The reform" Aldermen Of our City have
protested against the bill now before the Leg
islature which contemplates the sale of our
disgracefully filthy, rat-hamted, tumble-down,
ram shackle Markets Those Markets are
fever-nests and vermin-harbors, but they are
we'll understood to be profitable to Aldermen.
If they were to be sold at once. and the pro-
ceeds employed to reduce our enormous debt,
