lecturs continued,
eft is impossible to avoid oil reference to
the lsbour question in treating of the
affairs of Jamaica ; but. 10 fact, now it
ceases to be the great question, sicce the
recent arrangements in respect OF Indian
immigration, which enable coolie labour to

can be procured 10 abundance, ut rates
Qnite % moderate as there is reason TO
expect from . system which, il it is to
be governed by the ssregulations which
humanity demands, cannot be otherwise
than expensive.
The Sugar planters disadvantages, how
ever, have rot been limited to the labour
difficulty alone. After the removal of all
protection q severe struggle had to be
maintained against the competition of
the production of other sggar.growing
countries like Mauritius, or the large guam
titles OF the beet-root sugar. which have
oil been brought into the market since the
sbolition Of slavery.
More reseotly still they have been sub
jected to the yet more unfair rivalry OF
refined sugar protected by q bounty oa
export from the Continent, rivalry OF which
it is scarcely too much to say that it is
dishonest o the par Of the British con.
sumer to avail himself OF it for the purpose
of obtaining cheap sugar. The ~chespness

the foreiRc exporter to un dersell British pro-
Luce in English markets, is extracted by
foreign Governments from the pocket OF
the general foreign taxpayer for the Ibene-

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
The Empire.


The Altoona Sun contains two column
sketch of Henry Fettinger, the Oldest
BUSINESS man in Altoona, which contains
this local history: On the occasion Of the
dedication of the soldiers monument in
Fairview cemetery, July 4, 1867, there was
grand tiremens parade, in which the
Empire hook and ladder company of Lam
caster, Pa, participated. Mr.. Fettinger and
Mrs. Fettinger during the stay of the
company presented splendid and hand
some white wreath, beautifully ornamen-
ted with silver, about five feet in diameter,
with the word Empire across the centre
in silver letters, to the Empire company
of this city, with instructions to present
the wreath to the Lancaster company.
This was done, and E. B. McCrum, of the
Altoona Tribune, made the presentation
speech on the morning OF the visitors de-
parture. The Empire of Lancaster have
the wreath in their truck house, in ex-
cellent preservation and highly priced, to
this day. A band from Lancaster was
engaged on the same occasion, and it was
owing to Mr.. Fettinger's individual exer-
tions that $500 for their pay and entertain
ment was collected -

THE PRESIDENCY.

Mr.. Seymour VIII Not Accept If Nominated.
New York Herald Interview.
called his attention to an article in the
Utica Observer, which was published by
the associated press, in which it was said
that Governor Seymour deemed it i'm
moral to seek any public position when
his health was unequal to the performance
of its labOrs.
Governor Seymour stated that the ar
ticle was dictated by him and published at
his request. He had at no time supposed
that there was any probability of his nom-
ination, nor did he think that his name
would be presented at Cincinnati.
"Did Senator Herman come from Wash
ington for the purpose of seeing you about
the action of the Cincinnati cOnventiOn?"
l inquired.
The governor replied: "NO; he was
called to Watertown, jefferson county, to
attend the trial of case in which he has
been engaged for long time, stated to
him what have said to you. do not
know if he has written to any one at WASH
ington on the subject, but have written
letters there and elsewhere in answer to the
question to my correspondents in which I
have said what l now say to you. In ad-
dition to the reasons l have already given
l have have also stated others to show that
my nomination would be unwise, even if
sought it. have already written letter
to the delegate from my district to Gin
cinnati in which my purpose to neither
seek nor accept nomination is distinctly
stated"
