Double Salaries.

The fact has been commented upon that
Congress not only increased the President
pay to fifty thousand dollars and made an APP
preparation to meet it, but also made an AZ
preparation to continue the former salary
Of twenty-five thousand dollars. The same
error i. made in the legislative, executive,
and judicial appropriation bills, in regard to
each member Of the Cabinet, whose salaries
are raised to $40, 900, Judges Of the supreme
Court, and each Assistant Secretary Of the
Treasury, State, and Interior Departments.
Their increased salary and the former salary
are appropriated in each case. But, Of course,
neither of these officers will take advantage
Of such blundcr, even if the double salaries
could be legally paid to them, Of which there
NAV be some doubt. The same act also
makes an appropriation for the mileage Of
members Of Congress in one part though 1t
abolishes II in another. We refer to the
matter as an illustration of the proverbial
carelessness and laundering Of Congress the
last day on two Of its session.

Annual Product Of lndattry.

This table does not inc!Ude statistics Of
mining and quarrying.
As further proof of the relative import
ance of Washington as manufacturing
point, he states the interesting fact that only
three cities south OF us-IOuisville, Rich
mond, and New Orleans-eqsal Washington
in manufacturing industry. 1t is ahead OF
Nashville, Memphis, Mobile. Montgomery,
Atlanta, Augusta, Columbia, Charleston,
Savannah, and all Southern cites except
those above named.
The entire District, according TO COMP
lation from the census. has 952 manufactur-
ing establishments, using "A steam engines,
with an aggregate of 80 HORSEPOWER, II
water wheels with / 100 horsepower, en-
ploying 4,esj hands, who RECEIVE as wages

Washington Manufacturing In
dustry.

A correspondent Of the Star, who evidently
knows what he is talking about, has fur
nished the readers of that paper with some
facts as to the extent OF the manufacturing
industry Of the District, which will be new
and instructive to most Of them, We doubt
not, as they certainly are to US. He states,
and proves from the last census report, that
the annual manufactured products of the
District of Columbia exceed those of either
of the fourteen States and Territories Of the
Union, which are as follows

American WOODEN Manufa Cfures.

There is probably no branch Of American
and derived more positive benefits from the
Republican policy Of protection than wooden
manufactures. 1t is true that there has been
a wonderful progress in all kinds of manUtac-
lures in the last ten years. But it seems TO
admit of no doubt that in some Of the most
important kinds Of wooden products American
still, stimulated and encouraged by pro-
tective tariff, has proved even superior to
the best foreign. AT any rate, this is claimed
to be the fact by those familiar with the sub
ject. 1t is asserted by competent judges
that in the whole range of fancy cassimeres,
including the mixed goods Of silk and wool,
in style, taste, perfection Of manufacture,
and strength of material, we now excel the
English, and nearly approach the productions
Of France. The same may be said Of the
whole range Of fanncls, colorcd and plain,
and Of the "EsquimauX" aui Moscow
beavers, which have been initiated from the
Germans. In the low cost pilots, used az
substitutes for the beaver, the English are
without successful rival. In all the grades
OF wooden shawls which can be fabricated of
American wool, we successfully vie in quality
Of fabric and cheapness Of price with tie
Scotch, who are confessed!y at the heat Of
this branch Of manufacture. In the Clas, Of
all-wool goods of light weight, also, made n
all varieties of colors known rs sackinqs and
cloakings-the fabrics are now sold in this
country cheaper than any similar goods are
sold in Europe; and this, notwithstanding
the difference, 50 far a. the price Of labor ia
concerned, in favor Of foreign manufacture.

THE Ess.sny Sta, Of Saturday state, that
the total appropriations made lat the last
session Of Congress exceed the amount Of
the previous session about ffty-foUr millions
Of dollars" We think the Star might safely
have omitted the "Afty" before the "four,"
and come considerably nearer the Tact. Our
impression 4. that The appropriations ior the
present fscal year lending June 20) we're
only fraction over sl9l 900, 90, while the
appropriations for the year 1873 amount to
only little over sl95, 900 900.
