Corn, Cotton and CurTencT.

~ShsS%@ Ss@@sA w. ~&&Sys
Lippincott's Magazine for No
vember, 1871, has "a forcible arti-
Gle from the pen of Amasa Walker
on the subject of .Corn, Cotton
and Currency The price of corn
and cotton, including wheat, is
fixed by their value in gold in
Liverpool and London. What
ever that may be it regulates
values in New York, Boston. Bal
timere and st. Louis. The same
rule applies to the sale of meat,
cheese, butter and other provis-
ions of which we export large
quantities. The great agricultur-
al class sells the product of its
labor by gold currency. By
what currency does 1t hire labor
ers to work on the farm, or on a
cotton plantations By a. paper
currency and a high tariff, that
raise the price of labor about fifty
per cent. above the specie stand
ard of 1860. Here is a govern
ment yard stick that is two feet
long for one class of citizens, and
three feet long for another class.
Farmers who raise cotton, corn,
wheat, cut meats, butter, cheese,
tobacco, and other staples, for
foreign consumption, have no
benefit from a high protective
tariff and an inflated papar cur
rency of some seven handred mil
lion dollars. No matter how
cheap a farmer can purchase
cotton, wooden, leather,
iron, steel and other foreign
manufactures, he is forbidden by
law to touch any article of the
kind without paying an enormous
tax for the privilege. This re,
straint on free trade is exceeding.
ly injurious to commerce; and
while putting one dollar into the
treasury it takes ten dollars out
of the pocket Of the farmer, who
really drags up hill the govern
, ment load, chained to the short
end of the evener. That Amer
2 lean system, which burns corn il

= than coal and fire wood, which

The \. Y. Tribune, of March 9TH,
says: at is doubtless true that
at least four fitths of the white
voters of Louisiana consider the
Kellogg Government nothing but
a violent and illegal usurpatiOn.
They know that no partisan of
Kellogg even pretends that he
received majority of the votes
cast and they know that he was
put in his Office by a decree of a
United States judge, which de-
cree the judiciary Committee of
the United States Senate, compos-
ed of Vehement Administration
partisanS, have declared to be
illegal, invalid and unwarrented.
In other words, the Kellogg Gov.
ernmen. never received anything
more tGan u small traction of the
suffrageS of the people of Louisi
ana; it was extrajudicially and
unconstitutionally put in power
by a drunken and corrupt judge
whose impeachment therefore is
imminent; and it is kept in power
only by the main strength of the
Executive of the United States
Is it any wonder that the people
of Louisiana look upou this usurp
alton, which has risen like an ex
halation from their soil, as a for
eign growth-a thing to be hated
and overthrow n

THE WAY SUITS ARE COMPROMISED.
The extent to which compromises have been
conducted In Now York has hardly boon suepeot-
3D. for tho reason that court officials and United
States District Attorneys lGye carefully con-
cealed tho facts in each compromised case. The
settlements IRE always privately made, and tho
suits are discontinued in tho courts by an in
formal proccss which attracts no attention, md
does not briug out the facts. After q firm is de-
tected, it's books eoizod aud examined, and tho
amount Of fraud determined, tho suit begun ia
compromised, the money paid into the Treasury,
and thon divided among tho officials interested,
aud tho suit B discontinued Without tile RnEhI~
cat interruption to tho business OF the accused,
and without the knowledge Of the public
that there hus been any such process.
Suits aro entered in the books Of tho United
States Courts in such a manner that only Ger
tain officials know thoir character, and thua
firms committing frauds ara protected. It 10
only when firms, like those Of ". E. Dodge d
Co.. oppose the suit that thore is any disposition
to make the case public. Now York Tribune
reporter has obtained tho koy to tho method Of
entry Of such eases, and thua secured from the
official records
LIST OF ALL THE GASES COMPROMISED B1Nox

This list shows that during the past four years
the total receipts from compromised cases IN
this district alone Ia 81, ,48s, G18.95, Of which
Ions than half, or 9717, ,89G.07, went to

tho Collector got for himself and tho
