CHIEF among the blessings which the
American laborer must recognize as flow
ing to him from the policy of the National
Republican party is PROTECTION TO
HOME INDUSTRY. Powerless alike have
been the attacks of the schemng allies of
foreign manufacturers and the selfish argu-
ments of importers, who might be tempo-
rarily benefited by unchecked introduction
of foreign goods, reinforced by others who,
honestly perhaps, but not less mistakenly.
advocate the free-traders' theory-to ''buy
in the cheapest market and sell in the
dearest" The Republican party has
steadily refused to remand the United
States to the commercial conditions which,
under former low tariffs, made this country
a mere tributary to Great Britain, and
brought want to the home of the artisan
and ruin to the counting-room Of the mer-
chant and capitalist.
Diversified industry has been encour-
aged. improving the condition of the me-

THE latest authentic accounts from
North Carolina continue favorable to the
Republicans, who are working quietly, dill
gently and effectively in all parts of the
State. There has probably never been a
more thorough organization or more sl<ilful
canvassing than the Republicans have had
since the contest began. The unexceptional-
ly high. character of their candidates, espe-
cially of those who are contesting the Con-
grcssional districts, has told greatly in their
favor. The intelligent correspondent of the
New York Times, who has travelled
through the State recently, has authentic
assurances that the Republicans will have
a majority Of from 1000 to 10 900, which
might be raised to 10000 if their resources
were not so limited. The best informed
correspondents claim majority of at least
10000. 5 rasf T

LETTER FROM PRESIDENT EwELL

A few days ago we took occasion to refer
to William and Mary College, and to the
interest which President Grant had mani
tested in the restoration Of that institution
to something Of its former prosperity in the
way Of material means and resources. We
expressed the belief that President Ewell
had it in his power to enliehten the public
on this subject, and that the facts would
show that while the President favored the
measure before Congress for reimbursing
that institution for its losses during the
war--those occasioned by the direct action
of the Federal troops-the paper controlled
by Mr.. Greeley at the time strongly OPP
posed it; as it has opposed all remuuera-
ton for losses by the people Of the South,
however justly the claim for particular re-
endorsement might appear upon its face.
As William and Mary is not run as polit-
ical institution, its worthy President gives
no facts that would bear. politically upon
the present canvass, but he fully substan-
| tiates our statement in its most important
particular. We give his letter in full:
| ~. WILLIAMSBURG, VA, July 26.
To the Editor Of the State Journal:
Dear Sir--Haying just had my attention
called to an editorial in recent issue .ol
your paper, IN which you refer to sacrifices
made by the faculty Of this college to sus-
tain and restore it, and appeal to me to be
informed what General Grant has done in
aid of its restoration, | state that feel
bound in justice to reply, and give my
testimony with pleasure; and here say /
see nothing political in the question, and |
mean nothing political in the reply. The
college of William and Mary, the witness Of
and the sufferer by revolutions and politi-
cal changes which have upheaved CONT
nents, knows no politics. It's teachings are
catholic--among them mental philosophy,
logic and right ethics ; and these, l venture
the assertion, lead to right politics.
First, as to the labors of my brother
professors, their devotion and disregard Of
self have been and are above praise. More
than two hundred and fifty have been
taught, gratuitously by them, since 1865,
who, without such help, would now be as
ignorant as the surrender at Appomattox'
found them. ..saj1 ss.se

in aid of the restoration, on this site, of one
of the few "consecrated localities in Amer

ACCORDING to the Philadelphia Press,
proposition has been made that President
Grant issue a proclamation Of pardon and
amnesty for convicted and indicted Ku-
Klux. This is urged on the ground that
the organization is really broken up, and
that those who are already punished are
victims to State terrorism. as well as those
whom they wronged. There is reason and
justice in this proposition, and we hope the
President will see the wisdom of acceding
to it. His magnanimity to Lee and his ar
mics would be fifty crowned by this last
act of real reconciliation. IF the Ku-Klux
are revived his strong arm and stern policy
can subdne them again with equal facility.
