FOR Or AGAINST PROTECTION.

Mr. Greeley declares that if the Cincin-
of principles, which it will feel called upon
to publish to the country, any sentiment
looking to free trade or the abolition of the
protective principle in the revenue laws of
the United States, he will not support the
nominee, no matter who he may be. This
leaves us to suppose that Mr.. Greeley viii
support the nominee Of that convention
in The event the platform Of principles con-
forms to his notions upon the subject of
the tariff The issue to which Mr.. Greeley
subordinates all other questions Of politics
is thus narrowed down to one, and he is
willing to take any man who processes to
be in favor Of protection, no matter what
his other virtues or vices, in opposition to
a good man who differs with him upon
this important point. This is undoubtedly
his right. But is it reasonable? The
Cincinnati nominee, if elected, can
not decide the question of the
tariff. That must be left to Con-
gress. Mr. Greeley might support free
trade candidate under protest as TO that
particular article of his faith, with the
| object Of securing an unobjectionable man
IN other respects. Taking advantage Of
his protest, he might at the same time
labor with the people not to elect free
trade members Of Congress. If the peo-
pie are in favor Of protection thew will re-
turn Senator's and Representatives pledged
to protection, and the President could do
nothing to irjure or arrest the principle.
If he was a good man, such one. for in
stance, that Nj. Greeley could support
him for his virtues, he would let the tariff
take its course according to the wishes of
Congress, for proper President viii not
descend to do more than state his views to
Congress. and then leave the members
free to act for themselves and as their con-
stituents have instructed them.
Mr.. Greeley, if We mistake not, is op-
posed to the exercise of the veto power.
Suppose the people should elect free
trade Congress and tariff President,
would he uphold or urge the use of the
veto in arresting the passage of law that
reduced the tariff below what the protec-
tive interest demands?
In round terms, is Mr.. Greeley for a
protective tariff above and beyond every
other question? Does he subordinate every
other political subject to this one issue !?

THAT OLD CITIZEN.

There is certainly no Disgusting the fact
that ''our Oldest and most respected citi-
zen is the recipient of more discourtesies
from the police than any man we ever
before heard of. 1t is more especially
strange, too, in view of the fact that ''his
manner is invariably courteous and polite. 3"
But, nevertheless, whenever he accosts the
police, he may count himself in for it.
They pay no more attention to him than
if he was an ordinary citizen. The other
night ''his family were visiting the Varie-
ties Theatre" and the ''oldest and most
respected citizen was out on the side
walken joying chat with an old friend. :"
Just then fire broke out and the police
man On the beat ran to give the alarm.
Stop shouted Old Respected, where's
that fire." Sixth district replied the
peeler, his hat on his head, and still
stretching toward the fre-box in his head
long gallop. ''Insulted y cried the 'old
respectable citizen, and he searched f.
rio,lsly for a Calling gun or shillalah.
But, unfortunately, he had left it at home,
and SO the peeler escaped unscathed of
shot or blow but alas not free
That ''old respected was one of the
''230," and on that peeler's devoted head
fell at last the awful artillery Of the calico
Pic. Before that awful discharge the
peeler fell. No more will he run to fires;
no more can ''old respected" challenge
him. Requiescat IN pace.

a CHANGE OF TUNE.

The Times is throwing oil upon the
troubled waters it has done so much to
stir up and lash into fury. For time
it supposed the Republican party was
irreconcilably split in twain, and that the
Reform movement would. swallow up the
Democratic party as readily as does the
bon ricant his appetizing midday oyster
But in both calculations the would-be
political oracle Numbered as usual. The
Republican party is virtually unit, the
few malcontents and soreheads who have
bolted being relief to it rather than a
loss. This fact the Times recognizes and
admits in declaring that "all Conserva-
tive ii. e. opposition) classes will have to
unite before the next State elections to
save the State" And the Reform "
party, instead of absorbing the Democ-
racy, has scarcely made an impression on
the rank and file of that old and long
tried organization. Now, secretly cha
grined, the Times drops its abusive and
denunciatory style, and "roars it as
mildly as any sucking dove" 1t finds no
occasion for cheated discussion and
angry interchanges Of uncharitable and
irritable imputations, . and calls upon all
the rival factions which are antagonistic
to Republican rule to smoke the pipe of
peace and become good allies.
The one little. obstacle in the way of
this wise programme lies in the leaders.
The ''reformers" bolted from the Demo-
cratic organization because their chances
for preferment seemed better through the
medium Of a new party, while the Demo-
cratic champions, knowing themselves to
be the stronger before the people, feel a
natural dissemination to surrender the
reins to men with scarce corporars guard
Of backing, and whom they look upon as
half way traitors at best. When the Times
can reconcile these differences our party
may begin to consider that it has worthy
foe in the field

, The Bee is childishly innocent. 1t says
that the government of the United States
has never found any fault with the Democ-
racy of the South, because it was entirely
satisfied with the way the Democrats &C.
cepted and submitted to the fourteenth
and fifteenth amendments. Then what
about the congressional Ku-Klux commit
tees that the Bee has denounced as wicked
and oppressiye.to the last degree? Was
the squall of the Bee mere piece of fret
fulness like that which disturbs the nur-
sery when spoilt baby cries just to be
crying?. Or was it a real howl of indigna-

We are merely opening this question
with view to get at fact which it is i'm
portant that the people should know. We
90 not take any position in the controversy,
either for or against protection or for or
against free trade, but are simply DESTROYS
to know how Mr.. Greeley, stands affected
concerning this issue, whether he will
waive all his other objections to General
Grant and support him on the pure and
simple principle that he is in favor of pro-
lection, as against another candidate
against whom he has no other objection
than that he favors reducing the tariff to
a revenue standard?

stationary platform. At the signal to start
the reverse rule is observed. Thus the set
tee is put in motion or stopped by putting
on or taking off the friction. The entire
machinery of this sidewalk can be worked
by engines located at short distances along
the street.
The advantage of this invention, if it can
be utilized, will be that the street can be re
lieyed of the foot passengers in great de-
gree, the ground floors can be useG for the
heavy business and for vehicles, and the
second story floor can be converted into
retail store. Mr.. Speer has so much conf
dence in his invention that he intends to
erect movable sidewalk on one OF the
squares in Passaic this summer.

A Movable Sidewalk.

Mr.. Speers, of Passaic, New jersey has
patented movable sidewalk, which he
suggests will do away with street cars, and
render the second story of the houses on
the street upon which it is built as valuable
as the first. This sidewalk is to be built
ten feet above the ground, and is to have a
continuous motion at the rate of ten miles
an hour. 1t is to be reached by spiral stairs
at each corner, and is to be covered by an
awning to protect passengers in both sum-
mer and winter. On both sides there is to
be a stationary sidewalk for the con-
venience of persons who are not DESTROYS
to move in any direction, or who desire to
wait for the proper time to get upon the
running sidewalk. AS it would be impos
sible for parties to pass on to the moving
sidewalk without great danger of fall,
cars are to be arranged thereon with in
Simultaneous brakes the driver upon which
being signaled, puts down the brake and
allows the passenger to enter by a side
door. The driver is directed where to stop,
which he does by again putting
on the brake, and the passenger is
at his destination, having been trans
ported at the rate of ten miles per
hour. These cars are to move on
wheels Of dimension not to exceed eight
inches in diameter concealed from view in
a groove in the sidewalk, and protected
from any possibility of running Off by wire
fanges. What is here alluded to as cars
are not such as are run upon the streets,
but light settees, containing four seats and
four pair OF wheels, two of the wheels run
ming upon the movable sidewalk and two
upon the stationary platform. At signal
to stop the conductor puts on the brake,
which raises the wheels on the moving sec
ton and lowers those tina: run upon the

and now Performer has got brand
new idea, and effulges in the Times through
a communication signed with this recently
SO much abused term. He thinks that
The Central Executive Committee of the
Reform party in process of organization in
this city aud State, might awaken new i'm
pulse and vigOr, and at the same time en-
couregement for their cause, by extending
an invitation to the presidents of all the
colored Republican clubs in this city to
meet them in conference at an early day.
His simple proposition manifests the
stupid ignorance of Performer" on the
subject, and shows that his ''ideas" con-
corning the Republican party have been
few and of bad origin. For his instruc-
ton we would state that there are no such
institutions as ''colored Republican clubs
in this city" White and colored Repub-
icans meet in amity together and form
their organization on the basis of political
equality. Besides, they are Republican
clubs, and as the Reform party tenders the
colored members no rights or privileges
which they have not already the guarantee
of, tits not reasonable to suppose they will
desert a party in which they have won
leadership and controlling influence, for
one in which at best they could be naught
but the ''hewers Of wood and drawers of
water
If any colored people have been beguiled
with the Reform cry, we hope "Reformer"
will continue to point his ideas" SO that
they may soon have their eyes opened to
the true character of these new and feryent
friends.
