THURSDAY. MARCH 22. 1800. Philadelphia and No lolk. It ia announced that iho Delaware R'ilro i'l is about to be put in comple e running onl-ir to a point on the ChesapBake B.iy, wboro a line of steamers will connect with if, an J opn a direct communication between this city an J Norfolk, rii'liidelphia will tlim ba pit ia relation, by a short route, with the whole rail road system ol Southern Virginia and North Carolina, as well as with Richmond and the railway ystcm contring Ther This will prove a most important addition to our means of Internal trade. Prior to the construction of the Delaware Railroad, or bo much of it as was first opened lor travel and freight on the 11th of December, 1856, only a small part of the trade of the country traversed by it came to tbii point. New York monopolized It by means of vessels which took the grain, ship timber, etc., ol that whole region, from several landings on the waters of the De'aware and lower Chesapeake Bay, directly to that city. These vessels re turned freighted with goods purchased in New York with the proceeds of their cargoes. A largo part ot the grain and timber thus sent to New York, was actually carted at great expense acrosB the line of the Delaware Railroad to the points of shipment, simply because it had not then any other outlet to a market. All these products, however, can soon bo brought here at a cost very slightly exceeding what was required to deliver them by teams on the waters of the Delaware and Chesapeake. They will thus Increase the exports of Thiladelphia and enlarge Its trade witli the people of Delaware and the Eastern Shore ol Maryland, who will be attracted hither to exchange their produce for our merchandise and manufactures. So much for the probable extension of our commerce with the communities immediately adjoin ing us. But a still more interesting field will be opened to us in those portions of the South where New Yoik has hitherto, by means ol bcr splendid steamships, had no rival with Whom to divide the trade and travel of that section. The direct communication soon, we trust, to be established between this city and the entire Southern quarter of the Union by way of Norfolk and Richmond, w'll divert in this direction a considerable, If not the major part of that travel and commerce which have hcietolore gone round us by sea to a more remote market. Witlr the facilities ot access made equal, Philadelphia has an advantage over New York, as regards the Southern trade, in her superior manufacturing resources and Industry. Iler Iron, machinery, Jewelry, leather, boots and shoes, carpets, wall papers, hats, and so forth, offer supplius to the South which cannot be procured as cheaply and abundantly in any other American metropolis Moreover, as most persons prefer Inland navi gation and railroad, where they are as direct and expeditious, to oceans, it may be presumed that the route by boats from Norfolk to Nan ticoke city, or some point In that vicinity, and thence by railroad to Philadelphia, will become the liavorite channel of communica tion between the Southern and Eastern States. There is another important view to be takf n of the Delaware Railroad, as affecting our mercantile interests. The line runs to a joint wiihin a few milei of Lewes, lying at the Breakwater, and always accessible to shipping. To communicate quickly and cer tainly, at all times, with vessels at the spot named, would prove to bean invaluable ad vantage, especially at thos stasons when the Delaware is closed or obstructed by Ice. It would not be extravagant to say that the utility of a branch road to Lewes, which would unite tLis port with the Capes of the Delaware by railway, would be more than sufficient, in the money saved to our commer cial clashes in one winter, to pay lor tho Dela ware Road and the branch to Lewes into the burgain. Indeed, without such a connection with the Breakwater, Philadelphia will never . realize the full benefit of the Im mense outlay in building th various lines of railroad converging here, and designed to give us command cf the trade ot the South and Southwest. In order to secure that trade, we must have a medium of access to and from the ocean, for exports and Imports, not liable to be closed at any season. Tbo Dela varc Road, with a 1 nk connecting at Lewes, would supply that desideratum, and with It the convenience of intercourse and facilities of transacting business with til's port would scarcely be excelled by any other on our coast. AYl en brought within three hours' ride by railroad of a point of arrival and de parture for Europe, right at the Capes of the Delaware, Philadelphia would answer all de mands of commerce, without the delays and interruptions which now turn trade and tra vel away from her. Latest. The last effusion of Mr. Comp. troller Clarke is addressed to the editor of the New York Comme) dal Advertiser, and is so far an improvement on its predecessor that It Is terse: "Washington, March 20, 18(.0.-Oonts! I am informed that jou have publixbtd a won m lamoiib, slanderous attack against me. Ilium correctly informed, vou seo the necessity of a proper ri-tructiou. Respvcttully yours, "i Clarke." To this vigorous assault the astonished edi THE DAILY EVENING TELEGKAPn. PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, tor replies that faWo have no Idea what the Comptroller's driving at; but as his letters are of great Interest about these days, we pub lish the foregoing as a sample of go id, strong writing, without a trace ol foundation whereon to stand unless it is 'infamous' or. Slanderous' to publish," without comment, Mr. Clarke's letter on financial topics,whlch is ubout the extent of the notice taken of that gentleman for sonic time past." If it is Mr. Clahke's Intention to demand rc iprtlon from all those journals which have condemned, most uxquallfledly. bis course, we should suggest a circular letter, as even to write on manifold such a number as would be needed, would consume too much time. "We are surprised at such a i outburst. Surely, whm the Comptroller has exposed himeeli to public criticism by attacking, in a mist wanton and unjustifiable manner, his superior, he must not now expect that tho icurnals of the land will hide their true senti ments for fear of provoking his wrath. "Per sons who live in glass house"," etc, is an applicable proverb Just now. Cheap Literature. We have spoken of tue cost of newspapers, and yet have something more to say upon the subject. Why should the price of a sin gle copy of a daily Journal be so high why should the public be required to pay two or thras cents for it ? This is a question which many put to themselves, but which they are not competent to answer. We may as well throw some light on the matier, if for no bet ter reason than to gratify an unintelligent curiosity. I a the first place, the wages of labor in this country have greatly advanced since the civil war began, and they have not yet declined, though the war is closed. The cost of all materials, also, has increased In like proportion. But that increase has been most felt in the rise that has taken place in the price ot the blank paper on which the daily journal Is printed. The very same arti cle which but six years ago cost eniy six or seven cents a pound, now costs from eighteen to twenty-two cents. That is a very serious difference, when it is considered that the blank sheet costs more than the printed sheet is sold for. We are in favor of protection to 1 omo in dustry, and we earnestly desire to have the Federal Government exercise, judiciously, all its power in the encouragement and defense of home labor and home manufactures. But there is a limit beyond which, the protective policy should pot pas, and cannot pass with out injurious consequences. In a word, there are some branches of industry In our country which an injudicious tariff will either utterly destroy, or compel, in self-defense, to.adopt a course which mut defeat entirely the object of a protective tariff. This is especially true of the business of those who print newspapers and books. The price of paper in this country, and the wages of labor are so high, that it is found to be act jally cheaper to have Ameri can books published in Great Britain aad im ported into the United States', than to print them here. An exchange paper says : "On account ot the exorbitant price of p iper in tnis country, the Ari'LETONS liave found It I ecceary to send tho plates of 'Webster's Kpellintr Hook' to England, and to order one hundred thousand copies. Ou rhe same account, LirriNCOTT, ot Pn.iliideloo.in, haB seat the plates of the fine 1'rayer Hooks and Bibles published by him to Great Bri'iiin, where the books will be printed, and afterwards imported to tnis country." We are not prepared to say whether the above statement is true or false. But if it be true, it Is full of significance for those who favor a protective system that is so extrava gant in its provisions as to compel American publishers to get their work done in foreign lands in order to gave expense. We should be sorry to have our national tariff so arranged as to drive employment away from our own printers to those ot Europe. And yet it would seem that, under the present law regulating this matter, It is cheaper to have American works published In England and imported into this country, than to print them at home. This can only be explained by the fact that the wages of labor and the price of paper in the United States are so much greater Juan, they are in England, that our publishers can have their printing done abroad, aad their bocks imported afterwards, cheaper than they irnn nrinr tlipim in 'Philftdp.lnhlft or New York. This is not a very agreeable revelation, it should startle and alarm those who advocate a protective tariff that is so extravagantly high as to. protect foreign rather than do mestic lubor. And yet that would appear to be already the effect of the protective system, as, applied to foreign paper and foreign print ing. But there Is another fact in this connection that is worth the serious consideration of Congress. However high, or prohibitory even, the tariff on foreign fabrics may be, the tax on literature should be kept as low as possible. Not only should the least practica ble restriction be placed on the Importation of foreign books, but it would be highly bene Ucial to admit free of duty unprinted foreign paper, which would cheapen the price of Ame rican books by materially reducing the cost of their publication. And this is especially desirable In this country, in which the Intelll gence and virtue of tho people are the basis of government, and where good editions ol the works of the best native and foreign au thors should be cheap enough to be within the means of all, Instead of the rich only. Wherever the masses generally are enlight ened by reading and reflection, there liberty and loyalty are usually found to co-exist in the highest degree of perfection. "In Eng. land," says Goldsmith, "where there a as many new books published as in all the rest ol Europe together, a spirit of freedom and reason reigns among tho people ; they have been often known to act like fools they are generally found to think like men." The War Claim of Pennsylvania Against I the United States. In the LTouso of Representatives, yesterdv a general debate occurred on the question of reimbursing the State of Pennsylvania the sum of 1 800,000, expended by her lor the equip ment of United Hates troops. The facts con nected with this special claim may be briefly Btatcd. In 1802, when the invasion of the State occurred, New York and New Jersey, lurnished troops to repel it. When the apwo- priation for the payment of the one hundred davs men was made, it was all absorbed by theso twe States, Pennsylvania waiting until they were paid. The consequence was that none of her soldiers received any compensa tion. At the request of the President Gov ernor CuKiijf borrowed from the banks of this city nearly 1700,000, which was guaran teed to the State through the Chief Executive and his Secretary of War. The banks have been repaid by our Commonwealth, which ha9 assumed the debt herself. She now asks for its payment. That the claim is Just will not be denied even by those who oppose Us settlement. Tho objection raised is an insidious one, and only cloaks the evident design to slight the in terests of our State. The reassn. say the opponents of the motion, why it Is unjust to make a payment, Is that other States have incurred like debts, and to' neglect them would be to show a partiality for a particular Commonwealth Inconsistent with justice. The proposition submitted by Mr. Blaine, of Maine, to amtnd by inserting the war claim is merely an effort to stave off the main question. -'' The provisions of this war cla'm are, as was well stated by Mr. Leonabd Mykks, to pay to our State $1,400,000, or twice the sum asked for by the law. We do not desire such a bribe in order that the main question may be avoided. If the debt is indeed due to our State, as there can be but little doubt but that it is, then we are entitled to and demand not as our share of a war appropriation but us a special debt contrac ed in the national cause, at the national instigation, and which should be paid by the nation. It is no favor that our representatives are eloquently peti tioning lor it is a right which they are setting forth, and asking tor acknowledgment. Should the House refuse to assent to the aeked-ior amount, it will be guilty of a gross injustice, and stain the fair name of the Govern ment. Upon assurances of the highest offi cers in the land our patriotic istate cheerfully assumed a large debt, and now, when a repay nient is asked by us, to have it carped at, examined, and staved off by side Issues, re flects discreoit upon the Representatives of other Mates, especially those from New York and New Jersey. We generously allowed all the fifteen million appropriation, which was designed for three, to be divided among the two, in order that their claims might be liquidated; and, it is an act of ' reciprocal generosity and common justice that they now should join and see that we are not injured by our voluntary kindness to them. "Ir. Brandagee, of Connecticut delivered labtevminir ou exceedingly able and couviuo ing argument, before the House Naval Commit tee, on the subject o' a nrouer site for the new Iron-clad Navy Ynrd. The araumeut lasted nearly lour hours, anil wss listened to with close attention. It was shown that at New Loudon, by a peculiar natural formation, a lock can be so arranged as to float the largest iron clad upon ways which shall leave theua entirely out of water when the water i let off, and the iron ship is not in use. This will save an enormous expense In- the construction of machinery to Beeure this end, which naval experts now decide as the only sure way to save them irom corro sion." Yes, If the iron-clads are Ie't in the kind of water which abounds near New London, it is probable they will be obliged to be held mid air between heaven and earth, but the pure soft water ot the Delaware renders any such necessity useless. Imagine the appear ance of the Navy Yard from the sea, should the scheme of Mr, Bbandaoee succeed. We can picture in our mind's eye the Jutting cliff i from which are let down Iron hooks, pulleys chains, and so forth, and as the vessel is slowly towed past she is suddenly grappled lifted from ber native element and suspended like Mahomet's etone, midway between heaven and earth a curious' spectacle for foreigners to see a long row - of these iron cradles dangling in the air and swinging by the wind, for the gales on the Sound are enouch to rock even the New Ironsides.
