p Il. LAIRD ON FREE TRADE.

P. B. Laird, formerly in the granite
business here but now of Syracuse
N. Y, asks and answers these ques-
lions in the Home Market Bulletin
for December:
"Who wants free trade ?" Do the
laboring men? No; they are flock
ing from every free trade country to
reap the benefits of the tariff. Do
business men want it? No; They
understand that they cannot make
money with labor pauperized. Do
manufacturers want it? No; Eng
land is sending millions here to en-
gage in our manufactures. Do the
farmers want it? No; they want
more protection Who, then, want
it? England, the importers, the
bondholders, the misguided South,
the democratic politicians. They
want anything that will give them
the loaves and fishes. They want it
regardless of the prospect of pauper-
ling the laboring men and driving
our children from the schools to the
mines and workshops, and making
this, like England, a government OF
classes"

week the house adjourned and the council
took a recess till to-day. The house adj
j%ournsd because it had a democratic ma

transact. The council took a recess be-
Vause it had a republican majority and
wanted to confirm the nominations Of the
new governor. The council is doomed to
another disappointment or another recess,
for the senate has as yet neither confirmed
nor rejected the nomination OF Wolfey fol
