greatly higher, and the great staples are
so much higher that when the difference
Of price between 1860 and 1872 is ap-
piled after the fashion of Mr.. Burch-
ard, to the whole product Of the country
his laundering and mistaken indict-
ment Of the manufacturers, if admitted
to be true, would be so trivial as not to
be worth mentioning. The hounties to
agriculture under protection immensely
overbolance the petty sums he has falsely
charged up against its patrons-the work.
men employed in native industries.
The prices in the following table are
taken from the New York Weekly Tri.
bune of November 81, 1872, and Deem
Der [, 1860, except WOO. for 1860, which
is the price in New York as given in the
Finance Report of 1868; and the grain
prices of 1872, which are from the Daily
Tribune Of November %. The amount
of product is taken as that of the census
year, though it is largely in excess Of that
year.
In looking at this exhibit one can I'M
derstand why the country makes extra
ordinary progress in spite of d. A. Wells
and his lugubrious disciples in Congress.
1t is because the agricultural interest," up
on which all others depend for subsst-
ence, is in the enjoyment of the most I'M
exampled prosperity.

rhe Tables Turned.

The theory that custom duties imposed
upon such commodities as we can pro-
duce 10 the United States are tax not
only upon what may be imported but al
so upon the ertie home product, and
that The price o! the whole mass Of such
commodities entering into consumption
whether they be of foreign or native orr.
gin, is increased by precisely the amount
OF the duty, eau claim a respectable an
tiquity. 1t is as old as the debates on
the first Tariff BILL and has been employ.
ed in the debate on every Tariff bill con-
sidered by Congress yet it has never been
submitted to the test Of observation or
experience, and no effort has been made
to prove it.
The Revenue Reform party, under the
lead of d. A. Wells, revived this theory
and endeavored to make it popular, and
it may be said to have been the principal
argument employed by the Free-Traders
in the Tariff debates of the past five
years. In the last Congress more than
dozen members Of greater or less ceebri-
ty, used this groundless assumption in
opposition to the protective features Of
our existing Tariff laws, and several gen.
tlemen elaborated it into ingenious alb
surdity, of which the following statistical
table. taken from speech by Mr.. Bur-
chard Of Illinois, is fair illustration.

his Celebrated Family Medicines, is
probably one of the largest medical estab-

personally at the above establishment,
many more are successfully treated at a
distance by letter, the necessary medi-
cines being forwarded by mail or express

In this statement we have included ev-
erything of which comparison can be
made, and it will be seen that with the
exception Of pork and corn the advantage
is very greatly in favor Of present prices,
many things being from fifty to hum
bred per cent. higher now than in 1850.
1t appears, too, that the benefits of the
good times we now enjoy are very evenly
distributed the truck patch and the grain
field, the dairy and the rancho, are alike
prosperous, and it is cheering to see that
the greatest proportional advantages are
enjoyed by the agriculturists of the South
ern States. There is not manufacturer
in the country who will grumble about it.
There is not a workman mean enough to
denounce his brethren of the Western
grain field and the Southern cotton field
as monopolists, robbers, and pensioners,
because under the existing system ofpro.
lection their industry is reaping great re-
wards. The workmen make no claim to
craftsmanship, but they can understand
that the prosperity of any great industry
is common benefit, and that under
freedom of production all profits are
eventually equalized.
Mr.. Burchard and the bakers dozen of
Western and Southern members of Con.
gress who have adopted the same statisti-
cal absurditics, may plead as an excuse
that they were imposed upon by the high
authority of d. A. Wells, who brought
this slate-and-pencil craftsmanship into
fashion. That distinguished gentleman,
as part of his official duties, undertook
the espionage Of our manufacturing in
dustries, which he proposed to regulate,
and if need be repress, and he was re-
solved that profits should be made odious
and prosperity punished. He is to blame
for the largest part Of the sectional feel
ing which is displayed by narrow minded
members of Congress, and for a. least
half of their stupid jealousy or hatred Of
every manufacturing industry which they
suspect to be guilty of criminal prosperi-
ty.-InduStrial Bulletin.

How about all this back tax? We
understand that there is about fifty
thousand dollars OF umcollected tax in
this county, and from present appear
anccs should think the most Of it
was due from near here. What we
would like to know is this: How it
comes that SO much i any Of this de-
linquent tax is against men ,rho haze
receipts Also. what becomes of the
money paid into the treasury Of which
no account ,c0s tah,en.' Have our
county officers all been SO honest that
it is ungrateful to ask them to give an
account of their official duties? We
in this part of the county have begun
to grow si,yhtly distrustful Of the
honesty of some of our former County
TrcaslNcrS.
Probably the oit;xcns of Upton VIII
be panied to learn that very serious
but not fatal, accident occurred to the

wisdom have sent to us. He STOP

been taken to prevent another such an

McDoNoUGH, N. Y, Feb. II, '..a
FRIEND LoNGLEY:-I have not for
gotten the promise made to drop |
line from this foreign land; and, il
pursuance of that agreement, propose
to infict letter upon you now.
Didn't leave in good time? One
day more and your big storm would
have locked me up, without any
chance of habeas corpus. What a
country to live in! the mercury skulk.
ing away down below zero for months
at time. How can people be con-
tent to live and move and have their
being in such a climate. when New
York is only forty hours away?
Its true we have our little incon-
veniences to put up with. The snow
banks take Excelsior for their motto.
and soar as it to pierce the infinite;
and the mountains, their tops reach
unto heaven.
Rome rests upon her seven hills.
but McDonough can boast many more.
Snow and cold and winter last about
six months in the year; but we have
no such weather as to freeze cattle,
pigs and men-go West for that.
This is little country burgh, away
from the railroad and the world. Shut
up by almost impossible hills; no ar
rivals but the stage, no departure but
the hearse.
People go TO the Corners once a
day, when the stage comes in, and
then subside. All the interest CEN
tiers in the daily mail. They cling to
that thread Of communication as if it
were the single hair which formed
Mohamet's bridge across perdition.
But if it were western village,
thepwould petition the Legislature
for a charter, elect mayor. call it a
city, and start newspaper.
City is word OF quite different
meaning in this part Of the country.
it is fortunate that there are Men
of many minds as the copy books
have it. The animated fossils who
live on these hills, seem as contented
to work and eat and sleep, year in
and out, getting all their reading from
an almanac, and their .'ncws" from a
neighbor, as if there were no better
things.
