THREATENIaa THE PRESIDENT.

Some blackguard or blackguards have been
sending postal card to President Arthur,
threatening him with death if he does not
recall Minister Lowell at once. The tenor
of the threat makes it possible that it is
not the work of an individual fool, but of
organized folly. Such things however ought
not to surprise anyone. The Fenians in
New York have been encouraged 80 much
that it is no wonder if they think they own
the country, or if they think to apply to
the Administration of the United States
the tactics which they are most familiar
with. 1t remains to be seen whether
President Arthur will comply with the
modestrequisition of the Fenian postal card,
but it is probable that he will take little
time for consideration first. even at the
risk Of being sent to join Cavendish and
Burke by the patriots who glory in assas-
sination.

SPAIN AND FREE TRADE.

And now Spain is waking up to the
folly and disadvantages of the Protective
system, and is taking steps to introduce
the Free Trade policy. That is the most
significant piece Of news that has come from
Madrid for half a century. If Spain has
really advanced 80 far as to be able to
slough off the Bourbon Protection system
it will have to be admitted that she may
yet be restored to prosperity and to her
former proud place among the nations.
Should she adopt Free Trade, however,
the United States and China will be the
only thoroughgoipg Protectionists in the
world, and as persistence in the silver coin,
age will surely force us to adopt the
Chinese currency system also, perhaps this
is only part of the general tendency of the
republic. With Chinese monetary and
fiscal systems, however, it will be very
difficult for US to hold out against the
fraternal relations with China which our
Eastern compstriots already wish to force
upon us

RECRUITING IN EGYPT.

The enthusiasm of the Egyptian Fellahs
for the so-called Irrational movement is
we'll illustrated by the statement that the
attempts to procure recruits for the army
have been so unsuccessful as to compel the
bringing to Cairo in chains of the few
poor wretches who had been kidnapped for
this purpose. Evidently the Fellahs have
no desire to fight for the alleged principles
which the alleged patriot, Arab Bey,
represents. They prefer to be left to their
humble and simple occupations, and if
they are taken to Cairo as recruits, it is
necessary first to put them in chains. We
do not think that while this spirit con.
tinues among the masses from which the
army must be recruited, there is much
danger of a sanguinary revolution, or of
serious attempt to overthrow the power
of England and France united, or to re-
pudiats the sovereignty of the Sultan.

STUPID aREEaRAcKERs.

The National Committee of the Green
back Party has issued an address in which
it jumbles together all the craziest ideas of
the day, and appeals to Ignorance and
demagogism and socialistic tendencies in
a very wild and incoherent way. As an
example of the lack of intelligence which
always characterizes the action of this or.
ganization we may point to the fact that
while it demands "equal rights for all !;
Especial privileges for none, it in the
same breath declares In favor of protec.
ton. If its leaders were fit for the
position they have assumed, if they were
capable of thinking for themselves, they
would have discovered long ago that there
cannot be such condition as "equal rights
"for all, special privileges for none,
while the country tolerates q protective
tariff. For protection involves special
privileges for many, and absolute robbery
of many more. It has built up privileged
class. whose wealth has been taken from
their countrymen IN tnc uoss al oihfaiy
way. 1t has robbed the vast number of
producers to bolster up few man.
ufacturers. It has not protected
American labor in the least degree as
is proved by the fact that at the
present time the American mechanic is
actually worse off than the English artisan.
Protection has not increased the comforts
and the resources of the workingmen. On
the contrary it has made living more ex-
pensive to them. No organization, there
fore. which is true friend OF Labor can
deliberately propose to sanction this sys'
tenn, unless it is guided with SO little WIS
dom as to be deserving of no consideration.
In nothing is the need of greater insight
shown than in the relation Of the working
classes to the Tariff. If they compre-
bended their own interests they would be
Free Traders to y man, and would tolerate |
none of the mendacious can't with which !

politicians seek to make them believe that
it benefits them to have to pay four prices
for everything they buy that is the handi.
work Of man. The farmers, too, who fur
nish the sinews Of war for the Protection
lists, yet never obtain one iota of protec-
ton, are as much in need of light as the
workingmen. Neither, however, will get
any useful information from the Green
hackers, for these people are themselves
blind leaders of the blind, and can only
grope their devious way to the nearest

IT has been supposed by many that the cost Of
living in France is less than in the United States
Consul H. A. Taylor, in his last report to the State
Department, gives contradiction to that idea. He
says that fruits and wines are little cheaper, but
most necessaries, four beef mutton, eggs, poul
try, fish, potatoes, etc, are much higher in the
United States. Servants wages are much less, and
rants about the same as here
