INDICATIVE FACTS.

"The development of American Manu-
fsctures," says the New York Times,
"must greatly depend upon their success in
competing with those of Great Britain
Well, it never has depended to any great
extent upon anything else. Among other
things, that it does lot now depend upon,
we reckon protection. 1t is the rise in the
cost of producing iron in England,
that now enables American iron
to begin TO enter upon the field
of competition; and but for pro-
lection, which taxes the consumer for the
benefit of the monopoIies, we might hope
to see the United States become at no dis
tsnt day the iron shop of the world. That
great era will come at last in spite of the
temporary perverseness Of. the human IN
derstanding. But there remains no doubt
that it has been long postponed by the sue
cess of protectionists in imposing restraints
and diversions upon the natural course of
things.
We give below some facts which indicate
that iron protection has "outlived its use
fulness, and that a future is dswDing, in
which the American iron-trsde must take
the lead in the world. The average rate
per ton of pig-iron exported from Great
Britain was, in gold value, for 1870, equal
to S13.77; in 1871, S15.4O, and in 1872 it
had risen to S25.22. The increase
in the quantity exported last year
over that of 1871 was twenty
eight per cent, while the increase in
price on certain qualities was as high as 10S
per cent. The cost of building tirst-class
iron steamers on the Clyde has. risen from
Sl20, gold, per ton, in 1871, TO about 100 in
1872. again, marine engine which in
1871 could be butt for $500 per horse pow
er, cost last year $3.50, and this year the
price has advanced to from S2S5 to $500 per
horse power. An ordinary passenger loco
motive which in 1871 would cost S11 900,
would now be charged $4,000. Upon
these facts and others, the New York Times
as follows:
sit is extremely improbable that Great
Britain will have cheaper coal for several
years to come, and the present wages stand
ard is very unlikely to be reduced. The
American manufacturer can, therefore,
safely calculate Ep1n. existing data,
the strength of competition he is
likely to meet with from thst quarter. AL
ready there are indications that we ara
entering upon the arena Of composition. In
the list of exports from New York for the
week ending Oct. %, there are the follow
ing items: For Chill, two steam boilers,
$4,000, and forty-six railroad cars, $4,000.
This is but q slender business to build any
general conclusions upon, but it may fairly
be accepted as an indication of new move
nent in trade"

10 increase the circulation of the country,
whenever we have reached the point when
we can say that there is room for increasing
the circulation, and if we have arrived when
the increase in the circulation Of the coun-
try can be justified, and there should be at
that time no necessity for Increasing the
number OF National Banks, then 1t is more
economical to increase the circulation by a
direct issue from the Treasury Depart
ment, saving the whole interest to the Gov
eminent instead of dividing 1t with the
banks; that Is to say, that the banbing sys-
tenn should be the mears Of furnishing the
circulation only so far as it necessary to
establish banks to promote the business OF
the country, and not for the main purpose
of supplying the circulation
We over estimate public intelligence If 1t
does not demand lmore economical cur
rency than We now have. This important
matter is placed too much in the hands of
few bankers, who can either expand or
contract our currency as suits their schemes
for private gain. Their power over the cir
culating medium is excessively, dangerous
and liable TO great abuses. Our money
should be more independent of all specula-
tors and speculation. Ali business is made
SO much game of chance, that no one can
say where gambling begins, or where 1t Is
likely to end. All that have either proper
~ or labor to lose should go for general
reform in our credit system. Our govern
ment, railways, banks, lands and mines will
soon be under mortgage to European credi-t
tors. * n

JOE soHNsroN ON THE wAR.

1t is stated that Gen. Joseph E. John
ston has written history of his campaigns
in our late civil war, which is soon to be
published by Messrs. d. Appleton & Co,
1t is to be embeilished with portraits of dis
tingulshed officers and maps of the various
scenes of operations. Referring to the
forthcoming work the New York; World
says:
@This is a careful and deliberate account
from the pen of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston,
of the Confederate army, of the events
which preceded his removal from the com
mand of the Southern forces operating
against Gen. Sherman in Tennessee and
Northern Georgia. Military men have long
been aware of the decisive effect CT that re-
moval In favor of Gen. Sherman and of the
Union cause. 1t was the personal act
OF Jefferson Davis, resolved upon and car.
ried out by him in defiance Of the counsel
and in contempt of the remonstrances Of
the ablest soldiers of the Southern army;
and as Gen. Johnston can have no motive
now for Withholding the whole truth in
regard to the matter, the story he has to tell
will have real value for the political as
well for the military history Of the great
American conflict" tt

LOCAL mANAaErrENr.

E We said a Few days since, that, as among
States, local self management is the best
and most satisfactory policy. It is only
when President and Vice-President are to
be elected that The States must come To-
gesher. All national issues are generally
settled in The election Of Senators and Con-
g'essmen. So, on the other side, this
p 'licy of local self management Is best in
adjusting the internal interests of each.
Safe. In discussing Tennessee politics this
offyear, our aim has. been to arouse the at
tsntion of the people In every mock and
corner, and set them to thinking OF the dam
gers and possibilities Of next year. We are
glad that our Democratic contemporaries
have taken up the subject SO freely; and we
are not at all sorry tina the indiferential cas-
cuuses have shown Their hands. Our aim 10
urging harmony and Cancellation, has been
for each division, county and district IN the
State to labor in the work and
contribute its share to the gen.
era result. Thus dividing the
work OF harmony into an immense num-
Der Of local frsgments,i it win be found more
easy, and if our friends are half 60 active as
orr enemies we have no fear for the result.
The first duty of each ward or district is to
see to it that personal piques orthe zpatby
of honest men does not prevent the election
of good magistrates, aldermen, etc. Tne
first duty of each county is to- elect good
court officers, sheriff, ETC., and see to it that
through no ridiculous division of ours
about men, a Radical slips into tie State
Legislature, or the United States Senate.
As to which of the three grand divisions of
the State shall have the candidate for Gov
ernor, it is generally matter of mere Sec
tional pride--a vanity rather to be discour-
aged. Generally sll these divisions present
gentlemen fully able for the position. ALI
this, however, is matter about which we
anticipate but little trouble. What we urge
most strenuously is that each county wake
up and send us good legislators when the
time comes.

Of the tonnage. Ia 1851 this was $S5. "a
per head; in 1851 it was S116.42 per head,
and in 1871 it was 1915 per head. Upon
these revelations the Times sermonIzes in
the following strain: Et Fff7
8 DIT Is not likely that for the next twelve
mouth the new enterprises In railway
building can be carried on. It lie certain
that the weaker roads will find it difficult
to meet their interest, and, in order to do
SO, will require to cut down running ex-
penses and repair to the lowest safe point.
This will reduce the demand for labor in
the first instance. twill also reduce the
demand for those products of labor which
are employed by the railroads. This de-
crease in the demand for labor win compel
a dec ease in general expenditure, and
therefore falling off of the general de-
mand for commodities, and shrinkage of
greater or less amount in prices. To this
shrinkage the country must make I'D its
mind, and there is only one way by which
1t can be met-by steady and prudent econ
omy."

EK-SECRETARY BOUTWELL, ON FL.
NANCE.

NASCEs
The New York Times of the 22d inst,
contains a report of ex-Secretary Bout
Wells address in that city on finance and
the panic, which from the ability and large
experience of the speaker, deserves more
than passing notice. Before the war, he
was Democratic Governor Of Massachu-
sets, and at an earlier date distinguished
as contributing sound Democratic papers to
Hunts Merchants Magazine on CONNER
clal, manufacturing and banking subjects.
As Secretary Of the Treasury during Gen.
Grants first term, he commanded the con-
idence of the country beyond his associates
in the cabinet, and his uSterances in his re-
cent lecture are received with great respect.
Mr.. Boutwell, estimates the present cur
rency st seven hundred million dollars. He
remarks that some want : contraction with
q view to resume specie payments soon;
while others demand more currency to take
the place of greenbacks and bank notes
boarded, as though government paper was
better than other property or security. He
very proberly points to over-tradipg and
speculsting at home and abroad SIS the
causes of the panic and suspension Of banks
to pay greenbacks. The cost Of transport
ing our exports to foreign ports, and bring
ing back our imports is put st one hundred
million dollars year. OF this work foreign
ships and seamen do 70 per cent, and
American seamen and ships q per cent.
If Americans did their own carrying it
would save seventy-tbree million dollars Of
the heavy gold balance every year against
the industry of the United States. Mr..
Boutwell, says that our banks can redeem
their notes in specie, provided the balance Of
trade, including the interest due on govern
ment bonds held in Europe, is not over
S125,0O0,090 year. Solong as the balance
against the industry Of the country is some
500, 100000 per annum, the demand for
gold for export is almost cure to rob our
circulating medium Of its precious metals.
II is obvious that neither banks nor cur
rency can wholly restrain the public
from abusing its credit system.
Habits OF general extravaganza like in;oxi-
cation, are much easier seen and condemn
ed than cured. The ex-Secretary censures
the practice of banks that pay interest on
deposits, as unsafe to all parties and in
furious to the pubic. 1t is said to promote
speculation at the expense of sound legiti.
mste trade and transportation. AS between
National Banks and the Federal Treasury
supplying notes for circulation, Mr.. Bout
well says:

1T appears that one of Grants pets is
about to get into trouble. The Washington
correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette
writes, Oct. &c:
GThe Attorney General has made formal
demand upon Henry D. Cooke for about
thirty-three thousand dollars, funds of the
Reform School of this district, which be held

First National Bank. Unless this money
is returned, it is the intention of the de-
partment TO enter personal suit as against

the institution are appointed and commits

is designated by them subject to the ap-
prsvAl Of the Secretary of the Interior, and

DIR. ROBINsON's LIBEL SUIT.

Our readers may remember that, in Jan
uary of last year, the Erening Post con-
tanned the following paragraphs:
"Rev. Stuart Robinson, of Louisville, who
advocated from the pulpit, during the war,
the shipping of yellow-fever- infected cloth
ing to northern cities, narrowly escaped
death from small. pox last week."
When this was printed, DR.. Robinson
was supposed to be lying at the point OF
death. As soon IS he was well enough to
make it safe for him to talk on such mat
tiers, the paper containing the paragraph
was shown to him, and be Immediately di-
rected bis attorneys, Messrs. Moore & Caul-
field, to commence suit against the proprie-
tors of the Erening Post for damages to
the amount Of 100000.
Suit was accordingly brought in the
United States Circuit Court. Before the
issue was made up, however, manly and
unsolic ted apology appeared in the columns
ofthe Post. The suit went to trial with
out jury, and the court assessed the DANA
ges ct $25, 900, with costs, and DR.. Robin

mitted sill the amount, except six hundred
and fifty four dollars for attorneys fses and

SIGEIFICAKCE OF THE OHIO
ELECTION

A large and enthusiastic meeting of
Democrats was held at Cleveland on Satur-
day evening to celebrate the victory in the
Ohio election. Senator Thurman was ex-
pected to be present and address his fellow
Democrats, but was prevented by illness.
he prepared brief speech for he occasion
which was read, and we extract his inter-
probation of the significance of the election,
as follows:
But the victory we celebrate means more
than the perpetuity of the Democratic
party.
IL means that dead issues shall remain
dead issues, and that no party can succeed
upon any but living issues Of the day.
1t means thst the people can no longer be
moved by near, miserable, false charges
against the Democratic party in respect to
the war.
II means that the Government shall be re-
formed, and that no genius however exalt-
ed, no services however great, can atone for
a want Of integrity.
1t means that The Government shall be
administered in the interest Of the people
aud not in the interest OF schemers and
rings.
IL means that economy shall take the
place Of prOfusion, and equal and exact
justice the place of oppression.
1t means that taxation shall be lighteIed
and its burdens be imposed with greater
equality and justice.
1t means that the Constitution is not sb-
solete and that It's provisions can not be vi
olsted With impunity.
Il u,
shall be supported ia the exercise of its con-
stitutionRl rights, and that notification or
secession shall not be tolerated; DGt, on the
other hand, that local self-government shall
be preserved and the reserved rights of the
States and the people be maintained.
1t means that individual liberty shall be
cherished and protested instead of being
arbitrarily restrained.
All this 1t means, for with these priBci-
pies inscribed on our banner we went to
battle and, fighting for them, won the vic
tory.
The Cincinnati Times, a Republican jour.
nal, takes this view Of the result:
ave are not of the number of those vi o
fed solid consolation in saying that the
Democratic triumph in Ohio was due to the
fact that more Republicans than Democrats
stayed away from the polls. Other causes
than mere indolent apathy kept thousands
of Republicans from voting. Nor is 1t by
any means certain that none of the votes
for Allen, Stewart and Collins were by men
who have heretofore voted the Republican
ticket. We may as well courageously face |
the certainty that without thorough Repub-
Iican reform the party is in bad way, and
will 90 on from bad to worse. Our hope is
in the application of decisive remedies by a
Republican Congress, cordially sustained
by Republican Executive. A prompt and
undertaking Reorganization OF the senate ana
Tonse by voting out Carpenter as President
71ro tempore, and by such construction OF
the committees of the House as will coDsign
an Credit MobiIier and salsry-grao mem
bers to back seats, is the first thing needed
TO reassure the country. The next step, 10
be taken without delay, is the repeal CT The
