TIE TARIFF AND THs MASSES.

EDS. RECORD. MON / have had my at
tention called to an article in the Chronicle o.
the 9th inst, under the heading of "Ths
Tariff and the Masses" the glazing mac
curacy Of some portions of which l canno
let go unrefuted. In order to satisfy you thai
l am in position to know what | am writ
ing about. I will state that have been en-
gagged all my life in mercantile pursuits il
England; and until my arrival in this coun
try, eighteen months since, have earned my
living behind a retail grocery counter in
Liverpool. Now, without wading to any
depth INFO the question involved, would like
to enumerate few articles, giving the actual
retail price in England, with assertions made
in the article in question. In the first place
| find the Chronicle stating that the price OF
sugars are about the same in both countries.
Now, in Liverpool, two years ago, myself
retailed sugars as follows Brown or yellow
sugars at four and five cents, cut loaf at
seven cents per pound. But think, to give
you better idea of the purchasing power of
the workingman's wages in the two countries,
it will be best to quote a few prices of several
things that are daily requirements in every
household. For example, in England matches
are per dozen boxes five cents, very large size
SIN CeuL5 , OHe penny JEeTe Will Duy
more than ten cents here, and in nearly al
such petty outlays that occur in workrnan's
family two cent? in England is more than
equivalent to five cents here. / might go on
in this way and fill column. For instance,
American cheese, equal to the quality sold
here at twenty cents per pound, can be pur-
chased in England for ten to twelve cents.
And, again, California canned salmon is sold
here in California at twenty cents psr can
the same can be bought in England at
twelve cents per can. Taking another line
of articles, find that here l have TO pay
fifteen cents for package of envelopes
price in England two to five cents; bottle of
ink five cents price in England two cents.
Coal / am not posted on the prices here in
England two to three dollars per twenty-five
hundred pounds, And in reference to cloth
ing find that for fine suit man has to
pay here about sixty dollars That suit can
be duplicated in England at twenty dollars.
The price of one hat here will buy four hats
there. In conclusion, | would say that the
purchasing power OF the working man in this
country is nearer forty psr cent. than twenty
per ceut. less Than in England. The Clroai-
Gle refers, in support of what il advances. to
the large immigration of English working
men TO this country. What becomes Of all
these men ? A big percentage Of them stay
here long enough to save their passage money
back, and thousands would go back but they
have families. and Cannot get the wherewith
to 60. The question might sugges. itself to
you why l don't myself go back, and SO |
would, bu. can see better field here in
business for a young beginner with a limited
capital the competition not being 80 great as
in the old country. But for man working
for wages. az l am now, why | can do better
in England. ASGLIcUs.

THE SITUATION AT PORT SAIL

PORT SAID, July 27th.-Arabi Pasha hav-
ing sent for the Assistant Governor, the latter
applied to Rear-Admiral Hoskins for protec-
ton, and took refugee on a steamer. When
Arab learned that ne ordered the commander
Of the troops to take the assistant Governors
place. Thereupon the Governor became
alarmed and also took refuge on steamer.
A telegram from Arabi's Under Secretary of
War at Cairo stated that as the Governor
had gone on board an English ship the com.
mander of the troops would be held respon.
sible for order pending the appointment of a
new Governor. The commander of the troops
is known to have stated, after the lombard
ment of Alexandra, that he was awaiting
orders to fire Port Said.

peans continues most insulting, the soldiers
making threats.
