Mr.. Henry Fawcett. NJ. p. Free
Trade writer, in his work on "Free Trade
and Protection, asserts that 1.-THE tariffs
of almost every European country, since
1877, have all become more protective, in
Guiding Germany, Austria, Russia, Italy,
Spain, Portugal and Greece" During
the present year, Sweden and New Zea-
land have been added to the list Of ma
tions once supplied by England with
manufactured articles at prices cheaper
than they could be made at home" but
which have been found quito too dear for
all that. The markets thus closed to
England, in spite of her diplomacy and
less reputable exertions, are not likely to
be opened to the United States without
concessions in prices Of our products to
which our workingmen ought not and
will not assent.
The only market we can certainly con-
troll is our own, and this, from the fact of
being the best in tho world, should be
most jealousy guarded against encroach-
ments in the interest of foreign rivals. If
outside markets really offered the rich re-
ward that Free Trade advocates hold up
before the eyes of American voters, 1t is
quite safe to conclude that those foreign
ers in whose interest Free Trade Is urged
would be less persistent in their efforts to
get hold upon the trade of this country

A Free Trade Admission.

John Wanamaker wins suit against
the government, which, IL sustained, will
require the refunding of large sums paid
10 duty on silk ribbons. The law imposes
60 per cent. duty on silk goods, but nd-
mits hat trimmings at 20 per cent. The
court sustans Wanamaker's contention
that silk ribbons are hat trimmings. The
effect Of this reduction Of 40 per cent. on
American manufacturers of silk ribbons
is thus forecast by an authority quoted
by the New York Times, free trade Dom
ocrat, as follows: eff the ruling shall
finally be confirmed, the manufacture of
silk ribbons will cease 10 this country"
According to the Mills bill advocates, 1t
ought to increase and flood foreign mark
cts with American silk ribbons Utica

GEo. W. Dmys, ESQ:
Dear Sir-Your favor Of the 9Th inst.
is received. In reply to your inquiry I
would say that am heartily in favor
of the passage of such laws as will do
justice to the soldiers who served our
country in putting down the Rebellion
OF '61-65." The Convention at New

ed the following resolution +" We pledge
our active support to every effort made
to secure to the Union veterans of the
late Rebellion, whenever aud wherever
needed, the generous aid of our Nation
al Union, which they periled their lives
to preserve" By referring to my letter
of acceptance, published in the Repub.
lican papers of the District, you will no.
tice that the declaration of principles of
the Convention meet my hearty APP
proval are stated 10 be such as have
commanded my support in the past, and
for the prevalence and triumph Of which
I hope and labor. During the war of

in my power for those who went to the
front and their families, and now feel
thet the generous aid of our National
Union which they periled their lives to
preserve . is due to the Union veterans,
not as q gratuity, but as DEBT, and
while care should be exercised and
abuses guarded against, yet errors, if
made, should be on the side of liberality
and not on the side OF niggardly par
simony. You will please communicate
these views to your comrades, on behalf
of whom you write.

II is significant fact that the most
prominent political speakers at the
North are Roger @. Mills and John G..
Carlisle, men who tried their best to
break up the country only few years
ago. With the power already obtained
by rebel brigadiers in the House, and
free trade leaders stumping for free
trade President, it appears very much
as il the cause lost by The bayonet is to
be revived by the ballot.

the " coolest and wettest blanket that
has been cast on Republican hopes "
was the alleged discouraging talk OF
Frederick Douglass. In his speech at
New Haven, few nights ago, Mr..
Douglass pronounced this alleged report
of his remarks lie, out OF the whole

The County Democratic Convention.
The Hunterdon County Democratic
Convention was held at Pennington on
Monday last. The attendance was large
and there was deep interest manifested
in the proceedings. People who expect
ed to see bitter fight were disappoint-
ed, and had it not been for Lambertville
talent the whole affair would have gone
off as quietly as Quaker meeting.
Councilman Kearns, of the First Ward,
took charge Of the convention from the
first, and, with the occasional assistance
of the chairman, conducted the business
in ship-shape manner. Mr.. Kearns
constantly stirred up the animals "
and kept the crowd from going to sleep.
A great many people asked, Who is
that man 2" but no one that we heard
responded, Hes all right" Some
people in the crowd yelled /" rats "
several times when Mr.. Kearns spoke.
We presume that this was in the inter-
ests Of harmony and squinted at the
Chinese question in laconic and fgura-
tive way, for If the Democrats are divid-
ed ON local politics, they can oil agree
on the Monaghan. Mr.. Kearns was the
best debater on the floor. and stood mp
manfully for his rights and the rights Of
Others that he represented. When q
slate is made, Mr.. X. is a dangerous
man to have around. There is danger
that the slate will be broken.
John Fl. DeMott, of Pennington. was
made chairman of the convention, and
showed desire to be impartial and fair
in all his decisions. Thos. Lugar, OF
Lambertville, Theo. Tinsman, OF Bsthle-
hem, and o. Van Billiard. Of Lebanon,
were chosen as secretaries.
Mr.. John Carpenter, Jr., of the COM
mittee on resolutions, presented q series,
in which Samuel Fowler was endorsed
for Congress. The resolutions were
unanimously passed.
Mr.. Kearns, Of LambertyiIle, offered
an additional resolution, as follows
Resolved, That this convention con-
denim the infamous local option law
passed by the last Legislature, and that
our candidates this day nominated be
pledged to its repeal.
Mr.. Kearns said he represented ward
that was opposed to having their food
and drink regulated by law.
Mr.. Carpenter suggested the striking
out of the word Infamous, which was
done, and he then said the resolution
spoke good Democratic sentiment, and
favored its passage.
The resolution was thereupon unani
mously passed. About two hours there
after the resolution was as unanimously
rescinded, Mr.. Carpenter favoring the
action, as the people Of the county would
have an opportunity to vote their senti.
ments on the question before the ASSEM-
bling Of the Legislature.
Nominations we're then proceeded with
