Prospective Financial situation.

An English journal of high standing
takes this view of the prospective tinan-
cial situation: "In very short time the
United States will again be in position to
command the money market here. Fur
thermOre, the maize crop in the United
States this year is exceedingly large, and
very late. 1t will now, however, be
sent to market in large quantities,
for the price is high enough to
encourage exports to Europe; and the
movement of this crop will create a
demand for money in the United States.
The cotton crop, too, is now being sent to
market in large quantities. 1t also is both
late and very large, and the price encour-
ages exports. Both these large crops will
give rise to demand for money in the
United States; and at any moment, there
fore, we may see rates rising in New York
and the sterling exchange falling. 1t does
not appear to us, then, as clear as to the
market generally, that New York will
take no gold this year."

Our Republican brethren are very anX-
ious to steal Democratic thunder this win
ter in Congress, but it is by no means
likely that they will succeed in doing so.
In the first place the session will be very
short, and so much necessary work will
have to be done, that the majority will
hardly have time to get down to tariff and
tax reform. In the next place there is so
much division in sentiment among the
members of the ''grand old party on the
subject-sOme wanting the tariff materi-
ally modified and others advocating a
sweeping reduction in internal rev.
enue taxation - that it is not
probable they will agree upon any
concert of action before the time for the
expiration of Congress arrives. In the
third place, the Democrats will probably
see to it that the Republicans-after they
have thrown away their golden opportuni-
tv and refused to listen TO Democratic ap-
meals to do something for the welfare of
tbe country during the unusually long ses-
sion last spring and summer-shall not
now. at the eleventh hour and after they
have been whipped out horse, foot and
dragons, be permitted TO pose before the
country as model refOrmers.

Revenue Reform.

The Radicals in Congress last winter
made weak pretensiOns of their willing
ness to reduce taxation. Their profess
siOns took shape in IA bill which proposed
Il beggarly reduction that would have
still left the greater part of the burden
of internal taxation upon the Shout
ders of the people. This the
Democrats successfully resisted. The
terrible defeat of Radicalism on
the 9TH inst. has impressed the party with
the necessity of doing something to tighten
public burdens. Accordingly Judge Kel-
ley, of Pennsylvania, acting for the pro-
tectiOnists, processes his willingness to
consent to the total abolition of internal
revenue taxation. This, in itself, would
wipe out nearly half of the taxes annually
laid upon the people.
But this is not enough. Reduction OF
taxation should not stop here. Gradual
reductions should be made in import du-
ties until our tariff system shall have been
placed upon a strictly revenue basis.
but, SAY numerous Democratic journals,
1.-The abolition of the internal revenue will
necessitate the maintenance of the pres
ent tariff to supply the needs of govern
ment." Proof of this is lacking and can
not be furnished. The main prop of pro-
lection is the internal revenue. That
withdrawn the duties or impOsts must be
lowered to such a standard as viii give
the needed return to the Federal treasury.
Within certain limits the higher the duty,
the lower the revenue, and rice rerSd.
1t stands to reason that, if nearly half
of our annual income from taxation be
wiped out, there can be no increase Of
import duties, but rather there must be
reduction. The position of the protection
lists comedies that American manufac-
lures can compete successfully with
those of other countries, for they admit
that the wants of the government can be
met even with the withdrawal of the vast
sums wrung from the people by internal
taxation. While it would be desirable to
have the horde of placemen employed
in the internal revenue service
relocated to private walks of
industry and thus deprive the Repub-
lican party of their services, the people,
when it came to a choice between the
taxation of tobacco and spirits, and a
reduction of import duties, would choose
the latter, particularly since the retention
of the former would justify greater re-
ductiOn of the others.
To our view, the internal taxes can be
totally abolished and import duties re-
duced to a strictly revenue standard with
out inconvenience to the government.
But, if a choice has to be made, retain the
taxes on spirits and tobacco, and make a
prOpOrtionate reduction in import duties.
The Radical professions are insincere.
The country expects and can stand a gen.
uine and sweeping reform of our entire
revenue system. The internal taxes are
not needed, and our industries are able to
stand upon their merits.

We publish elsewhere a circular ''tO
the press and people of the United States"
issued by Mr.. 5. a. Wheelwright, general
agent in this country of the proposed
international exhibition to be held in
Amsterdam, Holland, from May 1st to Oc-
tober 31st next, setting forth the scope and
objects of that exhibition, and appealing
to the people of this country TO take an
active interest therein. This appeal is of
special interest TO our people, as large
amount of naval stores and lumber as
well as cotton is shipped to the Neither
lands, and it might be to the advantage Of
our merchants and others in this section
interested in such products, to take part
in the exhibition. Application for space
should be made to Mr.. II. de Brun Hops,
Consul of the Netherlands in this city.

No work has been done in the steel de-
partment of the Lackawanna Iron and
Coal Company since Wednesday night of
last week, and more than four hundred
men have been idle. The reason assigned
for this is that the demand for steel rails
has been very light. The manager states
that they We're waiting for orders, and
that they could not 90 on and manufac-
ture stock of rails for the reason that
hardly two roads in the country use the
same size, weight, and shape Of rail. The
orders have to be received before the rails
can be made. If sudden demand springs
up the works will be kept busy until the
demand is supplied but, in view Of the
fact that the demand for steel rails has
fallen off very much of late, it was the
opinion of the manager that full time
would not be the rule right away. And
vet we are constantly informed that pro-
lection keeps up prices and keeps men
busy.

a Rrace of Important Questions.

The advance in the necessaries of life in
spite of the abundance of most articles Of
consumption, and the decline in wages in
spite of our protective system, which, ac-
cording to the advocates Of protection,
'.keeps prices up has led our able con-
temporary, the Philadelphia Record, to
examine into the questions, ''What pro-
lection really means?" and .'How much
does it protect the American laborerE'
On the first point it truly says that a wise
Frenchman prayed that the Lord
would deliver him from two evils, the
devil and the spirit of metaphor. Away
back in the middle ages the phrase pro
lection to industry was invented as a
neat metaphoric substitute for the PLAIN
word taxation. 1t is impossible to calcu-
late how much mischief and confusion of
ideas have been caused by applying a
pleasinglv false and deceptive figure of
speech to a selfish system of taxing the
masses of the people for the benefit of a
few favored classes. strip the system OF
the phrase protection to American in
dustrv'' and it stands in its nakedness
mere greedy scheme of taxation.
So much for what real protection means.
Now as to how it protects the American
working man, our contemporary discusses
thus aptly: This pretended protection
never has raised the wages Of labor, and
never can, for rates Of wages are deter
mined by causes far beyond its control.
But it does constantly, Systematically
and remOrselessly eat into the wages of
every wOrkingman in the land. Working
men must pay in the name Of protection
high prices for their sugar, their salt,
their coal, their clothing and their blank
cts. The heavy taxes upon iron and the
materials used in the construction Of
houses come out of the wages of the work
ingman in the increased rates Of rent.
Not only must the protective taxes be
paid by them for what they consume
of foreign impOrtations, but for
all that they consume of the
same class of articles produced at home.
The tax enters into the cost and deter
mines the prices of the articles produced
at home and abroad. If such We're not
the case protection would be of no use to
those for whom it has been enacted into
law. When the markets are gOrged under
this false system of protection the manu-
facturers can suspend production for
space until the surplus stock is exhaust
ed, but there is no such escape for the
workingman. His wages may be low
cred or his employment may cease, but
the taxes which this system imposes upon
nearly all that he consumes are gathered
from him with memorable regularity"
These are plain words well spoken.
viii not our American wOrkingmen give
them the consideration their Importance
so well deserves?

An "UnavaIlable Homicide. /"
AeIc York World.
.lsas

Another personal difficulty is reported
from Lynchburg, Va. There is in it the

spirit that prevails among the SOutherners,
and deters peaceably disposed persons
from settling in the Southern States. 1t
was a brutal affair, as usual, one COM
Blatant using spade and.th other a razor
The moral value of the incident is, per-
haps, slightly married by the fact that the
fight was between negroes, any
violence of the black brother being
VIGOROUSLY unavailable as an occasion Of
instruction in righteousness. Why is not
every homicide in the South committed by
a white MANI Many Southerners are I'M
pecuniOus, all are fond of fighting. There
must be many of them who would gladly
urn an honest penny by acting as cham
pions for negroes with quarrel, and
society of Massachusetts, Republicans
formed for the purpose might supply the
necessary funds. In this way the lives of
MANY negroes would be saved, the supply
of available outrages would be kept up,
the Southern whites would be slightly
dim nished in number, and articles in
