The credit of Lincoln county as
county ceased yesterday morning.
The bondholders won their case,
and now county scrip is not worth
the paper upon which it is written. As
no one will take it and furnish supplies,
the meals of the prisoners Of the County
Jail ceased last evening. All supplies
for the County Hospital will cease on
the first day of March. The County
Commissioners have some business to
transact; after which they will adjourn
sine die. The above are facts that can be
relied upon-oply not near as bad as the
reality will be before the first day OF
March. By tonight the prisoners will
be bowling for grub. and county officials
yelling for a thousand dollar scrip certiG-
cate to pay for one square meal. That
such should be the case we regret very
much, but there is now no remedy. and
the best thing that can be done is to
have no Jail, hospital or anything else,
as their keeping cannot be paid for.

desire to correct an error made in the
notice of yesterday morning in regard to
the Amateur Performance that will come
off in couple of weeks, under the su-
pervision of few ladies' and gentlemen.
for the benefit of a little girl, Fanny
Clements. We stated the performance
would be given for the purpose of send
ing her to school, and SO We were in
formed at the time. but since have been
corrected in regard to that error. The
purpose of the performance is to use the
money to pay physicians for the correc-
ton of the deformity under which she
now labors. and which can only be done
in New York. It is believed a. she
is young this can be easily corrected, and
various ladies are anxious to see it done.
Mr.. and Mrs. Goldthwaite do not wish
to part with the child under any circum-
stances. and it was only at the earnest
solicitations Of numerous friends that
they consented to this performance.
When the performance does take place
it is to be hoped that q crowded house
will greet the performers and help them
in the path of charity.

Wendell Phillips Oh the Dangers
OF the Republic.

! apprehend two great dangers in the
coming century. TIE first is the power
of incorporated wealth. l see that it is
indispehsably necessary for the man
agemrnt of great. enterprises, but how
shall you preserve the independence of
legisl lures against it? The whisky
ring, the railroad ring, and all the gi-
gantie rings, sit at Washington and
enact. laws. The other great danger is
the Government of cities. All the
nineteenth century has been consolidat-
ed into the great cities. ALI civiliza-
tion, enterprise, journalism, is cOncen-
trated in the great cities. Europe can
goveta cities ON the principle of despot-
ism, but we have never governed q
city. All our governments in every
large city from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific are elected by the criminal classes.
The government has failed i'm New
York, in San Francisco, in New Or
leans, ih Baltimore, and that of Boston
is failing. No man can analyze the
elements that go to make up Boston,
and cipher out any other result. May
or Cobb knows that, if he should exc
cute any law, license or otherwise, it
would be political suicide. The open
liquor shops make my taxes heavy,
and they make murder twice as likely
to occur, and, having settled that, 1
want to bring the great police power of
the government to bear on them.

EOrney on Blaine.

l have often heard Henry Clay de-
Scribed, when he narshaled his party
in the House of Representatives, both
before and after ne was Speaker-his
brilliant dogmatism, his powerful rhet-
oric, and the fascination of his manners;
and can well Imagine Blaine during
the present Congress, with all his own
rare advantages, mental and physical,
as fair Likeness of the great Whig
statesman who lOrded il in the Nation
al Legislature between SO and 60 years
ago. 1t can BIZ said of Blaine, with
truth, that he has all the requirements
for the first Office in the gift of the peO-
pie. He is a fine schslnr, superb Or
ganizer, and do not know anywhere
better writer or spsxker. He is tenn
perate aud gOOd-tempered, full of hu-
NOR, q natural statesman, and genu-
inc good fellow. Added to this he is
full of pluck, as every body recollects,
when he dressed off Roscoe CoDkling in
the celebrated controversy, few years
ago, with that Sir LOTUS, now of the
Senate; and still more memorable and
recent instance, when he took issue
with the administration on the Louisi-
ana question. 1t deserves to be said of
Blaine that he Is not a coy candidate
for President. 1t il an honorable as
piration, and he indulges it like man;
and if he gets the nomination he Will
arouse young America from Canada TO
California, and pat a rapture in the
strife that will once more make the
public heart throb with joy under
great intellectual leadership.

A Remedy for Hard Times.

The need of more attention to agri-
culture is not sufficiently considered
by those who are contriving ways and
means by which the hard times may
be brought to an end. An editorial
article in the Philadelphia Inquirer
presents the following startling statis-
tics:
The census of 1870 shows that only
15 per cent of the population was en-
gagged in agriculture, and that while
the general increase throughout the
United States was 27A per cent, the in
crease in the cities was 75 per cent,
showing a tendency to flock to the ci-
ties in search of the artificial sources of
wealth and to forsake the natural, the
true, the solid foundation of all riches,
the farm. We raised 1000, 600 BUSH
els of corn less in 1870 than we did In
1860. We had 1,000, 900 oxen less in
1870 than in 1860. We had nearly
5000, 900 hogs less in 1870 than in 1860,
while the general increase of live stock
from 1850 to 1860 was 100 per cent.
From 1850 to 1850 the increase Of cows
was 35 per cent, and from 1860 to 1870
it was but per cent.
That agriculture is a profitable en-
ployment ought to be apparent to all
who have supplies of farm products to
buy, but the annexed statement by
the New York Tribune presents the
fact in a very impressive lighi:
Taking the farmers and planters as a
class, we do say that there is ample
statistical proof OF the fact that they
are better { # than they have been any
time for three years past. We point
in the first place to the quanti-
ties of wheat, corn, cotton, beef pork,
cheese, hams, and bacon exported; In
the second place to the prices obtained
for those articles, not at the port OF
New York, but at the places where
they were produced, for the farmer has
had the advantage for over a year ol
the internal freights low beyond pre-
cedent; in the third place, to the lower
rate of wages at which farmers and
planters have this year procured thei'
labor; and in the fourth place, to the fact
which naturally follows from the thee
already mentioned, that the imports
of tea, coffee, and sugar have been
much larger in the fiscal year ended
with June last than in any previous
year in the history Of the country. lu
her dealings with the United States
Great Britain has proved good Gus
toner. While our imports from the
British Isles have been enormously
curtailed, our exports to those regions
have greatly Increased since the Gloss
OF the year 1872. In either one Of thu

Revenue Reform.

AS long and regular reader of the
Commercial, have generally admired
its leading editorials. The subjects dis
cussed are usually treated in such
fair, candid, intelligent manner that
even captious opposition is disarmed.
On the financial question, during the
past season, its reasonings were uDan-
swersble, its conclusions overwhelm-
ing, and it was largely used by the
friends of a sound currency as d text
book. As "Liberal," l have found
myself so completely in accord with its
utterances upon the political questions
discussed in its columns, and have 80
thoroughly Endorsed its vigorous at
tacks upon the Rag Baby the Third
term Spook,' the 'Pope's Big Toe,'
nepotisin, personal government, and
the Canal, Whisky and District Rings,
that have sometimes thought it was
thoroughly reliable upon all questions.
But whenever it gets upon the 'Op-
pressive Tariff question, it either loses
its usual clearness and force, or have
too much of the ignorance and ava
rice of which 'the protective delusion
Is begotten,' to allow me to appreciate
its re;isonings or conclusions. As l can
not ugree that my ignorance or avarice
has anything to do with the matter, l
must be allowed the privilege OF con-
Guiding that upon this question the
Commercial is not as fair, clear and
convincing as upon the other questions.
In carefully reading the two leading
editorials in Mondays issue Of the Com
mercial, in which the tariff question is
presented, ! Was surprised at what
seemed to me an unusual lack of reason
ing and asuperabuDdance OF invective.
1t is very easy to attribute the pros
trate industries of the country to the
pernicious Influence of this oppressive
tariff but the Commercial, and all the
advocates of sound currency during
the last campaign, attributed the panic
aHd its results TO the decentralization
that grew out OF an inflated and depre-
ciated currency was responsible then
the tariff wasn't. II the tariff was re-
spOnsible, then the Commercial acted
unfairly in attributing the results to an
inflated currency.
lift is true that 'the protective de-
lusion is begotten of Ignorance and av-
arice,' and that 1T is kept alive by the
credulity of the people, ia it not little
singular that the people have invaria-
bly, demanded a return TO protective
duties whenever for a short time they
have been permitted to enjoy the bene-
ficence of the revenue tariff system?
If it is true that the history OF the
peruicious influence of this oppressive
! tariff is told in the PROSTATE industries
of the country how has it happened
that the productive capacity In nearly
every branch Of manufacturing indus
try has been more than doubled since
the enactment of this oppressive tariff ?
Ifit is true that Congress can afford
to take off least twenty-five per cent.
from tho tariff duties on the great
leading staples, with an assurancel not
only Of DO diminution of revenue, but
of positive increase then is 1t not
equally true that there must be more
than double the present quantity ol
goods imported, and corresponding
