protection arguments possess much force;
and when we look at our silent cotton mills,
and our extingulehed iron furnaces. when we
see crowds Of would-be workingmen all but
begging from door TO door, and when we
hear that the revenue Of the country is fall
ing on, whilo taxes augment, II is difficult
to believe that the adoption OF protection by
other countries is really that unmixed bless
ing for England which those would have us
believe who hold that everything should
give place TO the interest OF tho consumer"
The desire Of English manufacturers TO
got the advantage Of protection lie shown In
the discussion Of the advisability Of sending
English capital TO Canada to build up indus
tries under the fostering wing OF high duties,
for 1t is pretty well known that the future
Government OF Canada is pledged to adopt
protection to very considerable extent.
English capital has before now fed to the
embraces Of protection" says the Engineer.
For example, the Sandorson Steel Works.
Syracuse, U. s., were established by Messrs.
SANDERsoN Of Sheffield. The late Mr.. WHIT
WELL and other English lronmasters constl-
tuted the Southern Iron and Coal Company,
in Tennessee, and other instances might be
cited"
There is nothing In recent political his
tory more suggestive than these evidences
Of tho sudden rise in England Of a wide
spread doubt Of the advantages OF free trade
and of disposition to again grant ro-
spectful hearing to the arguments in favor Of
protection 50 lately scouted.as unworthy the
consideration OF intelligent Englishmon.
Our esteemed contemporary the Evening
Post, has now an opportunity to start free
trade propananda In England Itself.

Some OF our contemporaries have gone TO
the trouble to trace up tho genealogy OF the
new Governor General Of Canada. The Mar
quis Of LoRNE Is respectable and promising
young man. son Of a father who has made n
name in literature and politics. and whose
career compares favorably with that Of more
remote representatives OF the family. The
name Of ARGYLL was not held In esteem in
Scotland in times past. outside Of the de-
pendents OF the house. for its chieitains were
noted for the facility with which they changed
their political views to suit political revolu-
lions. and one Of them lost his head by falling
to make his last turn-about with sufficient
celebrity.

Gen. Crook has been explaining one Of the

been constantly losing them until their number must

about year ago and The Indians called on me for as
tancc and said they had been quiet and peaccahe aud

over the loss
Very likely. People who are robbed usually get
excited about 1t. Stealing horses from white
men out West is often punished by death. but
il appears to be no crime TO plumber the In
dams OF animals which arc rs necessary 70 them
as their moccasins. Gen. CnooK states that In
dian ponies have been sold openly at ogalalla

Indians. and there will be no need Cor SHER-

Of the treaties by which the Indian Territory is
