THE NATIONAL FOENOBY Great excitement prevails, at present, in va rious portions of the country on the so bp ct of the location oi the proposed .National Foundry. Our neighbors of Cumberland, Mil., have rais ed a perfect furor in their little city, concern ing the matter, and '.ve notice that a number of the inland tou ns of this State are making loud and noisy demonstrations to draw the attention of "the jKjwers tl;3l be" to the "great advanta ges"' presented by their respective localities as sites for the institution. The iide of agitation on this subject, strange to say, has not vet reached our own region, and we doubt wheth er there are six men i:i the whole county that have given any thought to the fact Hint within twenty miles of this borouqh there i\ a section of country combining ait the requisites for an establishment like the one in question. The town of Hopewell, and the country lying adja cent to it.in IheNorth Eastern part oi thiscounty, we sincerely believe, are more eligible as a site for a National Foundry than any ol the places we have yet seen recommended. Iron ore ol the very best quality is found there i:i abun dance. The hiiis are scan:. with strata ol coal, being the well known Broad Top forma tion, and the valleys are v< ined with streams capable of furnishing almost am extent of wa ter-power. The iron ore, we are informed, tias been tested in the making of ordnance, and bas inet) found to be excellently adapted for that purpose. As out readers well know, this region is accessible by Railroad, and therefore, it car.- notbesaid to be objectionable on the score of iso lati >n. As lor health, which is a great desidera tum in the - Ifcti a of a I reality for such an institution as a Nate na! Foundry, there i-. per haps, not another .; ;t in ai! North America where the climate is mire salubrious, the at mosphere purer, 'he water fresher than in the mountain regions of Bedford county. Why, then, should not II ipewell be the site ? L- f the agents of Uncle Sam who have this matter in hand but pay us a visit—let them examine the place for themselves—let them Lot study its geology and learn of its wealth in minerals—and, then, let them make their re port, without "tear, favor, or affection," ami vv: are free to say that they will recommend Hope well as the plate best suited in every respect for the establishment of a National Foundry. DEMAGOG IES SEEi'-i MEALED. It is customary when new .States are aimit into the Union, for Congress to make fin in giants of lands, which was done but recently in the case ol Minnesota. In accordance with this custom, the English Compromise Act pro poses to give the State of Kansas, if she will ac cept Hum, certain lands, salt springs, .Nr., .X.C. This the Abolitionists denounce us a "bribe" to the people of Kansas to induce them to ac cept the Lecompton Constitution. Now, if this be a "bribe, then every Abolitionist in Congress voted tor just such a bribe, for the Crit tenden Bill and the Montgomery Amendment, t-heir pet measures, both contained Ete same of fers if land to the people of Kansas tf fare made by the English Compromise Act. Tile howi ilig of the Abolitionists concerning this alleged "bribe"* is another instance of demagogues im paling themselves.

To as, and we doubt not the great mass of 'he Republicans, it is a matter of little moment where he stands. His position only derives im portance from the fact of his having been the candidate ot the Straight-Americans last fall, having polled 23,000 votes in a poll of some 303,000.

The outrage is the same, whether committed by Spanish or English ves sels. It is not suiiicier.t that the British gov ernment disavow such acts. They should teach their commanders better manners, so that the wrong will not be repeated.

Among al! the conn nit-tit political catch words reli-d upon by the hybrid factions oppo sed to the Democratic party, to dupe an I de ceive the honest and unsuspecting to their own injury, that ol I'rofeeling . Jmeticun L < or is the most specious as well as the most hollow land hypocritical. Those who use this can', phrase so glibly and so frequently, care only for the laboring classes as (lit* farmer d-.es for his beasts of burden, as they may happen to he profitable to tliem as drudges and wealth-pro ducers. What they- me:in by protection, is pro tecting a handful of wealthy manufacturing monopolists, protecting capital at the expense ol labor; this no sensible person will deny.— The leaders of that party have not a single principle in common with the true interests of American industry, no sympathy whatever with the Wealth-Clouting, or producing classes, i his is a fact too notorious to be disputed by any one. \* e prophage to test the sincerity of these gen t ien.en in their professions of h iernlship for the working classes. L■! us have a rati svsfem of protection, it we are to have any at all,"and not a hypocritical sham, a hollow pietence, a mere rnahe-ij lieve. Ja the first place, let the tariff be so modified as that ail duties shall be taken off ol every article of necessity now used bv the laboring classes, and the duties greatly in creased upon such articles of luxury as are ex clusively used by the idle and wealthy classes, who only labor to collect that which the toilers have earned. Tlrn h t a direct tax be levied upon the whole property of the country, (not upon labor, for labor must be "protected" a gaiiist a.l the burdens of taxation as well as by a tariff.) in order to raise an immense fund, out of which the laborer shall receive his quo ta every Saturday night —say four or five dol lars each week for each individual. This would be tangible "protection," and would amount to sometbing*besidey boiiovv cant ami unmeaning professions. Are these advocates of a high tar iff ready lor n "protective system" of this sort? Why not ? Then, if they wish to "protect" the lordly monopolist, the manufacturing, weallhv aristo crat, let toem levy a sufficient tax upon the property of the whole country to pay a direct bonus to a handful of sugar planters in Louisi ana, tne iron-masters ol Pennsylvania, and the manufacturing nabobs of New England. L-t property be taxed directly (and not labor, as it is at present,) and you may "protect" the priv ileged or unprivileged classes to any pn.-sible extent the wealthy lax-payers are willing to go. How do the sham pretenders to friendship for American industry hue our system of "pro tection? ' Are they piepared to show their sincerity by putting such a : lan iut j i mediate practice ? If not— why.' American industry need.no protection; it can and it does protect its -if. It is driving the products of Great Britain out of mirm-i as mar kets where that arrogant nation has hitherto had an exclusive monopoly. It is an insult to An.eiican skill and American enterprise, to sav that America n industry needs protection, it only needs to be let alone—it is 'perfectly able to lake care of itself.
