The Protection of Labor.

One of the ablest Republican politicians
Of Pennsylvania is Col. Matthew 5. Quay.
A day or two ago he furnished the Phila-
delphia Times with an interesting inter-
view. In the course of his talk, he said
that. in his opinion. if the Democratic
party were to come out fiat-foOted for free
trade it would lose in the manufacturing,
but would gain in.the agricultural States,
He did not think it would lose more than
it would Gain. 1t must be remembered
that this opinion is from Republican
source. For himself, Mr.. Quay said that
he was in favor of a tariff on labor. What
he meant by this was that the great man.
ufacturimg and coal producing companies
should not be permitted to import cheap
Hungarian, and Italian labor when
labor was commanding good price
in this country. Mr.. Quay has touched
point that has not received the attention
that it should. In all tariff discussions
one of the great arguments used by the
protectionists is that a high tariff is
necessary for the protection of the AM
erican workingmen. 1t is iterated and re-
iterated that if the tariff is reduced to a re-
venue basis American operatives will sink
TO the condition of paupers. 1t is true, as
Mr.. QUAY says, that tariff legislation up
To this time has been in the interest of.
capital. not labor. While insisting upon
A high tariff the capitalists have used
every means in their power to cheaper
labor. Not very long ago there appeared
in the Pennsylvania papers accounts OF
threatened riots in the coal regions of that
State. The mine owners had imported
thousands of Hungarians to work the
mines. They paid these foreign laborers
ONLY a small fraction of what they had
been paying the native labOrers. The
foreigners were not only densely ignorant,
but lived in a way that excited the hos
tilitv of the community. If these Hun
garians had left their country to seek a
home in this country without solicitation,
the rich monopOlists could not be blamed
for EMPLOYING them, but the arguments
of these mouOpOlists in favor Of high
tariff are entitled to no consideration
when they become the importers Of pauper
labor. They cannot defend themselves By
urging that although they are protected
they must have cheaper labor or suspend
business. because the statement would
not be believed. Their object IN Sc
curing cheap labor is to increase their
profts. While there should be no OBJ
struction put in the way of immigration,
there should be a check put on the i'm
portation of laborers who are satisfied to
work throughout their lives for pauper
wages.

THE LATE MIR. NIACKEY.
A Romantic Story Connected with His
Marriage.

A Romantic Story Connected with His
Marriage.
There is, says Philadelphia special Of
January 80. romantic story connected
with the courtship and marriage to his
octOroon wife of Congressman Mackey,
of South Carolina, who died in Washing
ton Monday. Mrs. Mackey's father was
a white man-one of the celebrated stump
ter family of South Carolina-and her
mother, a quadrOon, was Cecilia Preston,
a sister of William Preston, turnkey at
the Nineteenth district police station in
this city. Congressman Mackey first met
his future wife, Vickey Sumpter, when
she was a girl of II years and he man of
%. At that time she was child Of great
beauty, but without any education. Mr..
Mackey fell in love with her at first sight
and determined to make her his wife.
He gained her mothers consent and sent
the girl to Oberlin College, Ohio, to be edu-
Gated at his expense, that she might be fit
ted to become his wife. She passed nearly
five years at Oberlin. diligently pursuing
her studies and corresponding With Mir.
Mackey, but never seeing him until the
dav before she was to be graduated. Her
vacation had been spent in Philadelphia
with her uncle, William Preston, with
whom her mother and younger sister re-
sided. In the spring of 1874, when she
was to be graduated, Mr.. Mackey came
on from Charleston and took Miss Sump-
ter's mother on to Oberlin to witness the
Commencement exercises and to bring
Miss Mickey home. When Mr.. Mackey
met her there after the five years. separa-
ton, she had grown, if possible, more
beautiful. She was highly accomplished,
and received her diploma with hOnors,

and her mother came to Washington, and
stopped at the Continental Hotel. That
evening Bishop Simpson was cent for and
the young couple were married in the par
lor. The only witnesses to the ceremony
were the brides mother, her young sister
Resale, and William Preston, her uncle.

like herself, are blondes. Two of the sons

FROZEN SOLID FOR go MILES.
The Ice Embargo in Chesapeake Bay
New ENGLAND vessels Locked in

The Ice Embargo in Chesapeake Bay
New England Vessels Locked in.
The ice embargo in the Chesapeake bay
has gotten to be quite a serious matter
For sixty miles the bay is frozen solid.
A narrow channel is kept open, but is so
full Of drift ice as to be hardly navigable.
A host of vessels are frozen in and some
are so cut by the ice that it is feared that
they will sink as soon as the ice breaks
up. The ice has nearly carried away the
large iron lighthouse on Seven-foot Knoll
ShoaI at the mouth of the Patapsco river.
Large iron piles, eight inches thick, are
cut into as with a knife. The govern
ment is placing piles around it for pro-
lection. Nine New England vessels, Ia
den with bituminous coal, are frozen up
in the harbor and cannot proceed. They
are the schooners Eva l.. Ferris, John
Proctor and Isaac L. Campbell, for Bos-
ton, Orvai Horaitz, Bertha Walker. VIII
liam II. Walker and Samuel H. Walker
for New Haven, .and Joseph i. Baker and
William Ct. Hart, of Providence. The
united 'cargoes aggregate 10000 tons of
coal. More moderate weather than the
present is needed to break the embargo.

''Women are mostly what men make 'em.
