DOES PROTEC7TvN PROTECTP

The following is from the highest Re-
publican authority in the country, the
Chicago Tribune:
We have received some circulars from
the "Anti-Crisis League" of Philadel-
phia A.-C. League declares that our for
eign debt, owed by the nation, the States,
corporations, etc, is somewhat between
81 ,200,000,0OO and $2,O0000O,00O. The
interest on this debt is alleged to be from
$72000,000 to $l20,000,000. We must,
therefore, export this amount Of specie
every year to pay interest alone. Nor is
this all. We have "bought, annually,
during the last eleven years, on an aver
age, $l00,000,000 worth more merchan-
disc than we Sold" This surplus must
be paid for with gold. "There is neces-
sary demand" says the Anti-Crisis Cir
cular, "for from $l72,000,000 to $220,000-
600, with an annual production of only
about 100000 of coin and bullion"
Our annual product of specie is some
what greater than the figures given, but
the difference does not affect the sub
stantial accuracy of the argument. The
"Anti-Crisis League" is quite right. Dur
ing eleven years, that is, during the time
since alhigh tariff gotinto full operation,
we have been steadily 1piling up our for
,eigh debt, until now our interest pay
mGnts to Europe far exceed our annual
product ofspeeie. Pennsylvania has bad
the tariff raised nearly a dozen times
since 1861. Her boasted theory of "Pror
tectionn has had "a ffairIand a long trial.
Now comes the confession from Philadel-
phia,, the, headquarters of Protection"
that While the tariff, which was to make
us rich and independent of all other na1
,tions, has been in existence, our ydepeh-
idenS6 On foreign I!fations has constantly
increasedl What, indeed, has the high
tariff done for Pennsylvania? Her fur
naces are blown out her factories are
idle, her mines are abandoned; Tom
Scott declares, in his printed plea for a
subsidy, that he ordered iron from
number of Pennsylvania works simply
to give them chance to eaploy their
men; and the whole State groans and
walls over the depression OF her busi-
ness and prays the National Govern
ment for help. Let the condition of
things in Pennsylvania to-day answer the
question, "Does Protection protect "

IN 4 STRANGE LAND.

We havea Mahometan among us. His
name is Mira Mohammed Ali. His age
is somewhere in the middle period, and
his appearance is strikingly foreign, He
arrived here few days ago from Wash
ington, bringing an Introductory letter
from Albert Pike, stating that Mira Mo-
hammed Ali was q Master Mason, be-
longing to Lodge in Constantinople,
and giving some other interesting par
ticulars of the stranger. He is Persian
and Mohometan of the sect of Ali, He
was early in life a dragoman, and become
later attached to the Persian Embassy at
Constantinople. He lately made the tour
Of Europe with the Shah of Persia, and
acted as interpreter, for which his wide
acquaintance with European languages
eminently qualified him. During his
travels, or in his European reading,
Mira Mohammed Ali seems to have
been bitten with liberal principles, which
untitled him for Asiatic life; for, when
in Constantinople, he wrote several lib
eral articles, which brought down upon
him the ire of his patron and sovereign,
the Shah of Persia, who forthwith ordered
him home; but thinking it would not be
wholesome for him to go, he came to the
United States, intending to remain.
He is very intelligent man, and
speaks the German, French, Russian,
Turkish, Persian, Armenian and Circas-
sian tongues with fuency. He is full of
languages and capacity for work, but has
nothing to do. We understand he is
seeking employment as translator, or
in any other capacity in which he can
make his knowledge and will available
for bread. 1t looks as if his foreign
tongues ought to plead his cause anu
make place for him somewhere in our
city as polyglot teacher. Such talker
in library would be better than die
tionaries and encyclopedias. A knowl-
edge of English, which he might soon ac-
quire, would be key to open to him
place, but his German ought to do it in
st. Louis.-[S Louis Republican.

But turn the topic on things to wear,
From an opera cloak to robe dc null

Tosee how fluent the lady can be,
Her laugh Is hardly the thing to please;
For an honest laugh must always start
Prom gleesome mood, like sudden breeze
And hers Is purely matter of art

What nature designed TO lie beneath
The finer mouth but what can she do,

THE GREENBACK CONTENTION

The Convertible Bond Scheme hdOrSed
CLEVELAND, o., March l2.-The Inde-
pendent, or "Greenback" Convention re-
assembled at 10 o'clock a. m. A special
committee Of five was appointed to re-
port plan for forming National Cen
trail Committee.
Mr.. James Buchanan, Of the Indian
apolis San, from the Committee on Reso-
lutions, reported a preamble and declara-
ton of principles, which, after some dis
cussion, was adopted. The preamble re-
cites that our Government is founded on
and derives its power from the people;
existing evils have resulted from repre-
sentatives setting party above popular
interests; evils were chiefly displayed in
our monetary system and the monopo-
lies which it has engendered, this system
being monarchical in its principle and
subversive of republican government.
To resist the enCrOachmentso ofthe money
power, to stay the tide of corruption and
extravaganza, and to place the control of
the resources and finances of the country
in the hands of the people. it has become
duty to organize an independent party
upon the following basis, as no reliance
can be placed in the existing parties:
The notes of all national and State
banks should be withdrawn from circu-
lation, and paper money issued by the
Government directly to the people in
payment of Government obligations,
without the intervention of any system
of banking corporations, this money to
be interchangeable, at the option of the
holder, with registered Government
bonds bearing rate of interest not ex-
Ceeding 365 per cent. per annum.
AS the public domain is the rightful
heritage of the people, it should not be
distributed to spectators or corpora
tions, but reserved for actual settlers.
1t is the duty of the Government to
equalize the bounties of soldiers, and to
bring to speedy settlement all other
just claims arising from the late war.
All rights, privileges and immunities
based upon the fact of citizenship equal
rights before the law being secured by
the Constitution.
We insist upon and demand severe
retrenChment and economy in all the
branches of public affairs.
The rivers and harbors being under
jurisdiction of the Government, should
be by it improved when necessary for
the commerce of the people.
AS special privileges, immunities and
powers conferred on corporations of any
kind or nature are granted at the expense
of the people, these privileges and pow
ers must be held subordinate to the rights
of the people and subject to the super
vision and control of the power granting
them.
A National Executive Committee was
then appointed. Mr. E. A. Olleman, of
indianapolis, was chosen Chairman, and
Mr.. 7. B. Buchanan, of Indianapolis,
Secretary. The committee then adjourned
sine die.

FOREIGN NEWS,
PRUSSIA AND THE POPE.
THE MAIN CLA USES OF THE ECOLESLASTI,
CAL BILL SIGNED.

Berlin, March 19.-In consequence of
the petition of the Archbishop of CO.
logne to the Landtag against that part Of
the Ecclesiastical bill which gives the
people participation in the control of
local Church property, the Government
has had the bill altered so as to deprive
priests of any share in the administra-
ton of such property.
In the Landtag, to-day, the main clauses
of the bill Withdrawing the state grants
from Roman Catholic Bishops were pass
ed by overwhelming majorities.
An Ultramontane member, amid loud
protests, read the Papal Encyclical.
Prince Bismarck took part in the dis
cussion. He insisted that it was the i'm
perative duty of the State not to pay foe
menters of instruction. ..I.'
