REVENUE.

alexander Campbell is writing a
series of articles for the Chicago Work.
lggnlen's AdUocdte, on the National Fl
nances and Currency. In discussing the
effect Of the high rate of interest in this
country upon the shipping interest, he
supposes an English and an American
line of steamers, each consisting of
twelve vessels, to have been constructed
with materials of the same cost, and that
seamen's wages, insurance, etc, are the
same for each, but In the one case En-
gllsh capital borrowed at four per cent.
is employed, and in the other American
capital at ten per cent. Mr.. Campbell
states the acsount of the operations of
these rival lines year by year, starting
with the same capital and allowing each
the same annual profit, and shows that
at the end of three years the American
line would fall SO much behind as to be
obliged to sell vessel, which the En-
glish line could purchase with its sur
plus profits, and like transaction taking
place at the end of the fifth, seventh,
ninth, tenth, twelfth, thirteenth, four
teenth, fifteenth, sixteenth, seventeenth
and eighteenth years. the English capi-
talists would then own both lines, and
have a surplus of over 100000, while
the American Company would own moth
ing, and owe large debt It is strik-
ing illustration of the injurious effects of
a high rate of interest, and so far as we
can see is quite sound and unanswera-
ble."
The same argument is just as applica-
BILE and undeniable in regard to our man
ufacturers as it is to our ship owners !;
the same high rate of interest raises the
cost of their goods in the same proper
ton and is one of the strongest argu-
ments for their protection by the general
government. A duty of three per cent.
on all imported manufactures would only
equalize that one advantage, while the
abundance and consequent cheapness
of labor in Europe would still have to
be overcome in some way by our manu-
facturers. But in spite of these weighty
reasons for protective tariff, and in
spite of the increase of it's debt, instead
of lessening it, our Government gives
away to foreigners millions of dollars
annually, when. it might just as well be
the recipient of these millions as it is
now losing them and miserably crippling
our manufacturers at the same time.
May the stringency now troubling our
public money matters lead the present
Congress to consider such questions and
secure success and prosperity to it's con-
stituents by re-establing duties, whose
repeal has only proven curse to the
highest interests of our manufacturers
and to our people in general

Renegade Radicals Eebuke ed
Werecently copied from the Milwaukee
Herold, prominent Reform paper, the
following DaragraDhs.

PAiNS pms
The Representatives of the Reform movement, at
Madison, have yet to prove that they real Re-
formers That they are not very Liberal, is plainly
Indicated by their appointments at the Capitol and
in the Legislature, which have the taste of the
sold Party" than of Liberalism. You might we'll
ask what claim most of the appointed gentlemen
who have lived life of pure 8ourbonsm, have on
the Reform movement, and that they should be en-
titled to obtain the fit of the broth.
Still we do not wish to open this question for de-
ba e present. but will wait to see how the entire
Jubilee will end. But let say this much to the
men of Reform at Madison, if they too much of
tue S,d party grease" to oil the Reform machine
then the Liberals, who have paved the way to Mad-
son. will no longer be their tools. In short, it
not the intention of the honest Reformer galvanze
the old Democratic party to new life and the I'LL b.
eral Reormer at Madison may take this advice. The
flood may come upon them sooner than they desire
it.
The Prairie du Chen Courier responds
to the above in the following vigorous
style:
The above from the Madison State
Journal shows the impudence and cheek
of the Herold as is characteristic of that
paper alone. The idea of few renegades
sorehead radicals (calling themselves Re-
tormersl' having the presumption to ar
rogate to themselves the credit and spoils
of the RECEIPT DEMOCRATIC victory in
Wisconsin, is the height of absurdity.
During the campaign just passed, it was
impossible to drum up even q handful Of
Liberal Republicans, when they were
needed for political effect. We know,
for we saw it tried Why, in this coun
ty of Crawford, where we Democrats are
united again and a0orhed together, we
gave our OLD fashioned Democratic ma
iorit And yet there is not a dozen
u oHo hor aoIlnIl
all the Republicans of this county.
The Legislature has done just right. so
far. The State officers and representative
members were elected by Democratic
votes. and it was only right that they
should fill the appointive Offices with
Democrats
tits no use for such "Red Republicans"
as Coleman of the Herold getting bis
back up, because his German radicals are
not chosen. He knows all about this
Reform" business himself. And with
out the staunch. old-line warehouses of
Democracy, the Reform Movement
will play out quicker than the Greeley
Humbug" did.
In this Democratic county of "Old
Crawford we worked with Democrats to
get out united Democ: attic vote for W m.
r. Taylor because we knew he was
Democrat aud. therefore. entitled to our
suffrage We gave the Democratic (Re-
form) ticket nearly 600 majority. Let
those men deny that they are Democrats.
and dare to ignore the true character of
the electors whose votes placed them in
Office, and the next chance We get "Od
Crawford" will give them a worse re-
buke than ever the ''GreeleJ Swindle''
received in this county. - Stase Journal.
