Of our wheat, millions OF pounds OF our pork
and millions of other farm produce. The
inference was that the New Eu2auders ate
all this on account of the tariff, and the
natural conclusion followed that, with o

ability, to the level of foreign paupers by a
change of legislation on customs duties, ia
clearly an overdrawn idea, picturesque

which he was president, and as nearly all

From VERIFIED consular reports 1t is
proved that America manufactures are
sold cheaper abroad, sven with the cost OF

this fact alone is sufficient to explode the

factursr can afford to pay the transporta
ton on his products to foreign countries. and
dispose OF them there lrohtabiy at lower
prices than those at which he sells them
here, it is plain TO be seen thst the home

WHIPPED FOR BEING A DEMOCRAT.-in-
formation Just received at Fredericksburg
and an interview by correspondent
with severa, gentleman of unquestionable
veracity give particulars OF most brutal
and fiendish outrage which has been CON-
mitted near Charlottesville, in the upper
end of the county. The facts are that for
some time past an old and respectable color
ed man by the uame of Henderson Briggs,
who lives near Charlottesville. hae had the
enmty of some of his colored republican
brethren because he has advocated and
worked for the election OF all democrats.
About midnight some ten nights ago three
negroes entered his house, and taking him
from bis bed dragged him down rocky bill,
cutting and bruising his body in fearful
manner, after which they administered to
him a terrible whipping With sticks and
switches, and threatened TO take his life if
he did not support the republican party.

not to kill him, and promised them if they
would DO him no further Injury that she
ct ,snd that their visit should never be made
known. Upon this assurance the cid man was
left loan almost insensibe condition. Sever
al days later, however, Henderson told what
had occurred, and stated that he was more
of a democrat then than ever. This remark
revched the ears of the tends who bad per-
petrated the brutal aud cowardly act, and
on last Tuesday night they again visited
Briggs's bonse. throwing heavy stones upon
the roof and breaking the window panes.
They also attempted to break the door IN,
but fortunately were friehtened off before
they succeeded. = Cor Rich Dis
