Yvby b chooses to Liirrox, to move by dark enhterrauean passages iuatead of walking above tan ground, ia a mystery known to himself, lieirf perhaps a profoundei' Statesman than avy ot the Presidents who bare preceded hiui; we nhould be sorry to think his secrecy is like that cf a quack doc tor. It is more reasonable to suppose that he sees himself hemmed in with peculiar diftioul ties; that he fiods so uiauy of the Beput-lioau leaders restive and fwputionfl, that it ia hia chief Btudy to avoid a bchiern, or, if it cannot be wholly prevented, to postpone and miti gate it. That his BensitivetuBS on this subject ia extreme, and (as he i a inau not to bj deeply moved by trifles) tbat the danger of a rup ture is too real, ia proved by tils breaking hia extraordinary reticence towaida the public on what would seem to be so trivial an occasion as a report of hia private conversations by an anonymous newspaper norretp indent. If, as General Grant avers, tlx us alleged conversa tions never took place, it is itrpo.-sible to un derstand why they liav put hi in into such a flutter. The correspondent did not profess to give the precise language of General Grant, but only its substance. There are cases in which the most positive denials prove no'.hiog but that tbe maker of tbui has strong mo tives for conoealment. S-duey Smith, for ex ample, clergyman thoneh be was, always de nied that he wrote the. "Peter Piymley" letters; but In the preface to hia works he naively eaid, "I have always denied it, but landing that I deny it in vain, I have thought it miht be as well to include the. letter in this collec tion." Walter Scott did not justify his denial of the authorship of the Waverloy novels with such arch simplicity, but resorted to casuistry. ''Either I must have surrendered my secret," he said, "or have returned au equivocating answer, or, fiually, must have Stoutly and boldly deiii'd the fact. Tbe first was a saorifioe which I conceive no one had a right to force from me, since I alone was cou oerned in the matter. The alternative of re turning a doubtful answer must have left me open to the degrading suspicion that I was not Dnwilling to astume the merit (it there was any) which I dared not absolutely lay claim to; or those who might think more justly of me must have received such au equivocal answer as an Indirect avowal. 1 therefore considered myself entitled, like an aooiiswl pei son put upon trial, to re'nse giving ray own evidence to my own conviction, and fUlly to deny all that oould not be proved against me." If the man of arms baa imitated those dis tinguished men of letters, and thinks bim3elf entitled flatly to deny "all that cannot be proved against him," hia plea of not guilty must stand good by the non-appearance of witnesses, lie may justify himself by casu istry as plausible aa Sir Walter Scott's. A private conversation, he may say, U, by the laws of social intercourse, held sacred. If those who listen to it repeat it to a third per son, and be publishes it, he can prove hia etory only by his informants, whose violation of confidence would be brought home to them if they consented to testify. The actual bearers of the conversations would be ap pealed to in vain to substantiate the report. A plump denial is therefore perfeotly safe, sinoe there is no possibility of disproving it. Being safe, it may be held justifiable on the ground tbat a man may pro ect the secrecy of his confidential intercourse. This is the best argument we oau make for General Grant, and it seems to us as valid as that UBed by Foott. But what is the great streps upon General Grant's feelings which impelled him to tuia glaring deviation from hia habitual course ? Here is a person who passes for the most itn - perturbable man on the continent, a person who has never brokeu silence under provoca tions which touched his honor and his military pride, rushing into print to contradict the statements of an anouymoaB newspaper cor respondent on a subject of no more importance than his opinions ef various publio men. Horaoe, in an oft-quoted passage of his "Art Of Poetry," cautions his tuneful brethren against the impropriety of introducing the gods exoept ou occasions of sullicixnt dignity to warrant their awful in tervention. It would violate all poetic pro bability to make those sublime beiuga de Boend from their serene elevation uole&a the occasion were one of first-rate dignity. For General Grant, who has kept silent ou so many occasions when other men would have enoken. to come before the public about a matter which. every other Btaleeman would have rliitbted. is an enigma which admits of no rational solution, extent iu the hypothesis that his relations with thn public men of hia party are so slippery and insecure tbat slight oanf-es of disturbance are of ominous import. If be were not tottering on the edge of a preci pice, why has he made this great ado over a matter which seems ou its face so trivial? It Is only tbe violei.ee of th tempest - that snatches up chips and s'raws and lifts them to a great height. General Grant has been touched in a very sore spot; and the - more this self-possessed- stoiual man cries out at tbe brush of a feather, the more clearly In notifies the public of the lonavou of his wou.nl It Is too evident that be has got to succumb to the Republican leaders or brriik with them and this prospect goes fa'ilit-r to tbakoan l niirn&n him than anything h&i ever encountered. When Ounral Jintler, in a nnblio sceech at J.oU, charged that General Grant had inhumanly Ml our captured eoldiera to starve in 1-M prisons, he mado no contradiction; deigned no reply; treated the accusation with lot'iv contempt. tVhenthe President of the United State and four or 11 7e Cabinet officers publicly iiui'xscued M vera o'ti b bore even that In still, proud sib-nce jav now, when an anony w.ua m-wsuiuer correspondent caihers int he can letru of Genera) (Jrant'a uuhtndied cot, v.-r satinrm, tliM Imperturbable ophvr.x cm no lo.ir restrdu liiinsfelfl So weighty au aii'tlr i-nk -s him abandon all of a sudden tu r5e 0 iwprog- THE DAILr EVENING TELEGRAPIT PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, JANUARY 18 1869. table tat itnrnity which he has bo oonsploa- omly p)d, and hasten into print to save I Ms reputation I The danger that he will be mibroiltd with big party must be palnfally imminent when he feels driven to a course so rut of character for him, and so unexampled in the conduct of any President-elect. IiiipTGTiiiff Condition or the South. From the Jff. T. Timet. Persons recently returned from the South ern States report the gradual growth of a htalthy pro-peiity, and a degree of practical hopeinlnesB to which they have long been st 1 lingers. These representations are not universal in their application. There are two t r thiee States, and portions of others, which have tot yet turned the corner. In these cases the absence of an assured psaoe re presses the confidence which ia essential to systematic industry, and prevents the elforta which are elsewhere productive of manifest advaulr ges. Generally, however, a marked charge lor the better has oxmrred. The bulk cf the people in the reconstructed States Bie realizicg the reward of labor; they are fact emerging from poverty and depression, aid art prepared to profit by the lessons of a p&inful experience. This is more especially tme of the cotton-growing districts, the gains ol which promise far to exoe d anticipations; I ut it 1b measurably true, also, in regard to tie main body of the Sont'-i. Even in Vir ginia, where uncertainty prevails, things wear a greatly improved aspect. 'ibe Increasing value of land ia one of the noticeable evidences of improvement. Ever since the close of the war Southern landa have been absolutely valueless. The more a man possessed the poorer he seemed to be. They were available neither for sale nor as a bans of credit. A few cents an acre were all tbat could be obtained for choice traota in Alabama, Georgia, and adjoining States, and even at these prices buyera were far batween. This condition of tbe land market exists no longer. A general advauce in value has taken place. The ownera are belter able to keep what they have got, and, besides, buyers are increesing rapidly. Lauds which six months ap o might have been bad in large quantities for a dollar au acre are now held at live, and tbe prospect ia a steady advauce towards the leal value, which ia as much beyond tke pre sent figures as they are beyond those of a re cent period. South Carolina fully shares the bent fit of the change. The rapidity and ex tent of it our Charleston correspondent writes "tan only be fully appreciated by thofe who have had opportunities for observ ing end contrasting the present condition of all classes of the Southern people with their condition twelve months ago." The real estate operations of Senator Sprague in the neighborhood of Columbia, coupled as they are with an alleged intention to establish manufactories there, may be ex pected to strengthen the upward tendency. There can be no doubt that the facilities for the protection of manufacturing industry pre sented by the South are vastly superior to thoFe of any other portion of the Union, and it seems probable tbat they will soon be turned to account. Mr. Sprague is not the only Northern capitalist who comprehends the worth of the hitherto negleoted resources ot States which seem designed by nature to verify the combination of "the plough, the loom, and the anvil," in the sense understood by Mr. Henry C. Carev, without the un healthy stimulus of legislation on which he and hia school rely. The laud owners, moreover, are preparing to help thtrmselves. Tbey have learned the importance of attracting population. Georgia and Virginia have both witnessed a beginning in a direction in which associated individual effort is more effective than aught that State machinery can do, and we look forward to large plans for the introduction of immigrauts. A mistake will be made if reliance be placed wholly upon foreign labor. The North waits but for an assurance of honest welcome to send Southward no iuoonsiderable proportion of that stream of energy and wealth, by which, until now, the West haa almost exclusively profited. To attraot this, it will not be neoes ttuy for the South to organize as for exsrtiou iu a ditsant field. Only let it be seen that the Southern people really intend to subordinate politics to material development, and tbat their large land owners are prepared to divide their estates on terms that would be mutually advantageous, and there will be ne further lack of Northern industry or money. That they are doing this to a very large extent may no longer beaouotea, ana already tney Dsgm to count the profits. Old nnd New Methods of Centralizing Curt ltoatl. Trade- Kallroad vs. From the N. Y. Herald. There are certain laws working in our trade development whioh, despite any opposition to them, gain the mastery and shape our future. It is well that these governing trade principles should be well understood, as by a proper knowledge of their workings legislation may give them greater value and direct them iu such a manner tbaV they may make still greater progress under them. v hen the discovery was made that a rail road could transport a ton of goods for one and a half cents per mile, while the cost by a common carl road was and is about fifteen cents per ton per mile, it was a fact that turned old ideas upside down and set the world iu motion. It started looms into new action; it enhanced the value of land throughout the country; it Bet the farmer to producing; it created supplies which demanded exchanges; it made people acquainted with each other utid broke down old notions and jealousies, Distance ceased to have tflVut upon commer c'al honesty, and exchanges became rapid aud rerthiu. Just in proportion to the oust of railway transportation to that upon a common roud was our continent oompreesed, so far as immediate cost is concerned; but in breaking down distances the raving has been far greater. A ton of freight goes rapidly upon a cart road if it averages twenty miles per day. Upon a railroad it may easily average four hundred miles per day that ia to say, twenty limes the speed ot the olden time. If, now, we apply these faota we find that in time and for freighting purposes our continent ia about eight days wide. Eight days of good cart road in old times was one hundred aud sixty miles. Under the best circumstances the distance could not be greater. Here, therelore, we demonstrate that our territory is much smaller in all the great aud govern ing features of poli'ical stability aud centrali zation than that of any first-class power whioh xlrUdin Enrcprf thiny years since. I( to this we add the cntraliz ng force of thd tele greph we i-hall stl 1 more compact the mass, (ud pUce our greatest t-irri'.orial extreme fcbMu Very ea?y reach. Tr.kiu the average widih of onr terr toiy uw at eight days' travel, atd the averagM length at three days, rui comparing this with the year 1830, with twenty utile per day mi a common road, we fli'd that, eo far as distance affects iuterual cou.11.eu-t), we have iu the I'nited States to d;iy but l ine thousand six hundred sq iTie Iii;!e? of triritoty about ohh half the' territo. rii.l i.r iiof pt-umirk and bnt two-thirds thit of the Swii s Coufedra'ioii. Ij the transp.tr ta'ii n cf a man that is, an off usive or defen sive war unit w ate sliil smaller. Uut hew does all this affect internal trade as regards great oentres f It is evident that as the country becomes oompaot in its communi cations there will be a resultant centralization towards certain poinU which must control commerce. These points in the daya of cart roads were neoessarily very numerous aai in size proportioned to trade facilities. Now the great oentres are few in number, but stride onward to immense proportions, making themselves the great foci of exchanges and tbe olearing-housrg for a vast territory around them. As tbe small towns aud cltla require central points of exchange, where they in-'et to regulate commerce, so.io great olties require fcome immense commercial emporium, wnlch tbey elect as a great central point for general interchange of commercial ideas and the mure perfect governing of trade. This point thus elected is New York; but of the commercial centres which are rising to be only seooud to our great city in exterior and interior trad-t, we have Portland, Philadelphia, Charles ton, and New Orleans on the Atlantic Bud Golf oeasts, aud San Francisco ont the Pacific Portland is the natural outlet of neatly all Canada, andcompetes favorably with any seaport forourown Northwest trade, while it is much nearer Europe than any priu cipal port we possess. As regards Charleston, when she learns that she ia as near, if not nearer, the great West than New York, she will commence a rapid march to commercial greatness. Of the interior small and great cities we need not speak. The same laws govern them. They - pay tribute to the secondary centres, and these to New York, which appears to be e-loeted now, not only by tbe United States, but by Europe, aa the world's commercial focus. Herein ia a great lesson for consideration. The recognition of all this is an acknowledgment that legislation should be fitted to it and should be governed by it. Let not legislation suppose that laws should be shaped to govern these principles, but rather seek for the laws that exist iu them, and then adapt our own government t them. This will show true statesmanship, and this is what we now most need, else the laws will clash with material facts, aud the latter, always the victor, will upset the Gov ernment that interferes with them. Feward'a Lutliaunsy. From the 2V. T. World. We fear that Denmark will begin to suspect theie is "something rotten" in other States besides herself. It is tolrrahly plain that tbe Senate will refuse to ratify Mr. Seward's small treaty lor the purchase of the island of St. Thomas, and h is quite certain that the American people will ratify the Senate's re fusal. Of course, this is vry awkward for the sovereign of Denmark, who, believing in the wily Seward as Sniveller believed in Sophy Wackles, actually was at tb" pains to get a certificate from his West Indian lieges that they would be g'ad to dissolve their political relations with him. And sioce tbe St. Thomasites have ceased to be Danes and are not tj be permitted to become Aiuerioaus, we really feel a slight curiosity as to their politi cal future. What with the earthquakes of a couple of years ago aud the plump mitten just given them ty ourselves, the value -of their island in the general real estate market must have Buffered, aud, no royal or imperial bidders offering, we fear they will be obliged to set up as a email republic on their own account. Mr. Seward, of course, will promptly resign his position, now tbat be has at last received the snubbing which he haa so long and so eariestly invited. Suppose he bhonld eim crate to St. Thomas aud set up a little priu cipality there, a kind of small Elba, sui ed to his name and fame i The climate ia genial, the neighboring distilleries of Sauta Cruz are full of cheer and empty ot msei-ou. the island enjoys frequent mail communication with all parts of the world. St. Thomas will not have been vomited up in vain to tbe sur face of the blue Caribbean if it but provide an euthanasy of sangaree aud despatch-bags for the sage of Auburn. Have We a Protective Tariff! tfrom the H. Y. Tribune. In all attempts to improve the existing tariff, we trust Congress will carefully test ail assumptions that can be made to produce more revenue or that it ought to be any less protective. As a revenue tariff none that pre ceded it compares with it. In the year ending June 30, lSbl (in tbe last two moniha of which the tariff enaoled Maroh 2, 1861, was in foice, but in the first tea months of which we had the peace tariff of 1857), we oolleoted $39,582,125 of revenue from $335,650,153 of imports, or $1 of revenue on every $3 22 of merchandise imported. Oar present tariff col lected, during the past year, a revenue of $164,464,59056 on a net importation (1. ., ex clusive of goods reexported) of $351 214,010, or $1 of revenue to $183 of merchandise im ported. As a revenue tariff, therefore, the present one collects 4 49-100 limes the reve nue on the same amount of importations, or is 4 times more efficient thau that ol 1857. That it has not iu the aggregate been excessive, is doubly proved by the fact that our importations have increased on those of 1860 about as largely as our population, and are how $70,000,000 a year iu excess of our ex ports, including bnlhon; and also bv the fact that our gold revenue ia ouly $30,000,000 per annum iu excess of the amouut required to pay the interest on the national debt. So much for its feature t as a reveuue tariff. II id it been less efficient, our bonds would at all times have sold far lower than they have, aud our effort to preserve the Union might have broken down for want of the gold revenue neceseary to maintain our credit. To impair its efficiency now ia to )e-oen our resources for redeeming our greenbacks, paying onr debt, and returning to a currency redeemable in specie. Now let us Bee tow far it ia protective. We bsve brreto'ore shown that more than $112,100 C00 of the entire tariff reveuue are collected from imports which we cannot pro duce, and theie'ore cannot protect, viz., from ce ffee, teas, West India molasses, aud sugars, spices, foreign fruits end wines, etc All this is paid by the consumer ouly, and passes aa a tax upon the labor and indiibiry of the coun try, and ia fell iu a rise in wages, cost of living, rents, etc. For a tariff levied on au article we do not produce aud muht have, differs from a taiiff levi-d 011 au article we can produce, in tbh: While the latt-r may stimulate the do mestic pioduction, and cnse the foreign manufacturer to pny the tariff out of hia foimer pn fits, or even to fell at times below the cost of production, in order to hold his Ameikau customers, aud so our tax-payers escape the tax, and our consumers get the article cheaper Uau ever before no such beneficial eilecta tun 'ollow a ttriff laii 00 au article like tea, silks, cHhmere or coffee, which we cannot produce. The lat ter ia simply nd ouly a tx ou our induttry, and, though collected at our ttutom bouses, ia ultiiii'a ely paid by the Aitieiicau consume riu proporuou to tbe quau tity he consumes. l.'oiiMiiupiiou, moreover, is very accural, ly 111 proportion to popuuuou Kich men hie the ,(junioliaua of vast wealth, but their actual cout.u unit but of food, cloth iiir. etc., is veiy littlM umtH thau that of their ( Mints and of pert-ous hiving no surplus of wealth. Assuming that the ouu-uoipiiidi of impelled goods, and therefoie the payment of the tariff upon them, rests on our eojit population iu proportion to their numbers, we may arrive at the amount of tacatioa ot all kinds which has to be borne by onr tnauufao- loiiitg population. For all economist con cede tbat a tariff on foreign products of a k'nd which we produce ia only protective to the extent of its excess over the tax ou the domestic production. The number of hands, male aDd femal, antnally employed in our niannfo'.ur4 in 1860 ia stated iu the ceunua at 1.311.24 i. As the number has happily Joreased beyoud the Increa e in our population sinoe that date, it is safe to state it now at 1,500,000 of working hands. If these support at the average four persons each, including taemselves, we have a total manufacturing population of 6 000,000, or one-sixth of our entire people. Reducing the $112 000,000 of gold revenue levied on articles ot exclusively foreign production to curren'-y, we have a non-protective tariff of $156,800,000, to whioh add the internal reve nue taxes, amounting to $191,037,589; total non-protective tax on oar industry, $317, 887,589, of which our manufacturing population bear one-sixth, or $57,981,2Jl in enrrenov. Ia other words, the $52,000,000 in gold of tariff levied on the im portation of articles which enter into com petition with our own manufactures are offset as to their protective quality by $58,00i), 000 in currency, the Bhari of natioual taxa tion borne by the manufacturing clas-es as consumeis merely, to say nothing of the special taxes they pay as producers. Re ducing the protective portion of the import taiiff to currency (premium at 40), it amouuts to 172,800 000. From which deduct taxation resting on manufacturers as consumers ouly, $58,000,000, and we have a balanoe of $14,800,000 of apparently protective tariff out of a total tariff of $164,000,000. That ia, a tariff of only $14 000,000, if levied solely ou articles which we do produce and can protect, if there were no tariff on our remaining im ports, and no internal revenue taxes, would be more protective than our present tariff, which levies ten times as much tax; and even this residuum of tariff calculated to proteot American industiy ia subject to still further offsets anting from State and looilj taxation, and trim the special internal revenue taxes levied on our manufacturing classes as pro ducers, viz : the income tax, the taxes ou the manufacture of epirits, cigars, and tobacco, and the tax ou all manufacturers' sales. It is clear that, alter allowing for these additional deductions, almost the entire protective ele ment ia eliminated from onr tariff', aud it be et luea one for revenue mainly, if not wholly. To reduce it on those articles of foreigu pro duction with which we compete ia to give a bounty to the foreign producer. Mr. Wells haa succeeded in showing that some salt manufacturers have made good divi dends. If he had gone into the magnificent tmpoittng palaces ot A. T. biewait, 11. U. Clatlin, and other merchant priuoes whose im perial fortnnts are the greatest ever accumu lated iu a single 1 ietime iu any department of human activity, he would have seen, in their mere than regal aichitecture and lavish pro lusion of expenditure, the evidence of the far greater profits of importing the foreign mer chandize which competes in our own markets with our rising and stiuggliog manufactures, Tbey aie not styled "dividends," because the risk of importing ia so small aud the profit so enoimons, compared with that of manufactur ing, that it does not need associated effort in order to divide the risk, and, on the contrary, dt-dainsto seek cooperation by any agreements to divide the prchta. Mr. S'ewart has reaped a (01 tune, in a single lifetime, such as no ten unanu'actnrers in America continued have ob tained. No Commissioner of the Revenue scouts out bis profits as au argument against free tiade; on the oontrary, alt rejoice in his pros- peiny, and regard it aa part of the prosperity ot the r ation. Secretary McCulloch states in bis report for 1865 that the average earnings of capital invested in productive industries are M per cent. Oar railroads, during the past ear, nave earned zi per cent, on thetr oust try little ef the aotive mercantile capital of New York, especially that invested in retail ing, has earned in gross less than from 4 ) to CO per cent. If our salt springs are reaping larger dividends than the capital invested iu them would be worth in other industries, why do not our capitalists ov en and work tbe salt springs of Virginia, Kentucky, aud Arkansas f It the smelting of iron ore into pig iron la a source of excessive profit, why do not capitalists rush to develop the vast iron de posits of Missouri, Kentucky, Virginia, and of tbe AdirondacKs r tror a hundred years it baa been known that as fine and rich deposits of magnetic iron ore as tbe mines of Sweden and Russia contain, suitable for the highest outlery manufacture and lor railway use, are lying undeveloped within a hundred miles of Albany. If tbe profits of manufacturing pig iron are excessive, why is it that our capitalists so anxious for these profits would never until daring the present year advance the capital re quired to run a railroad into these mines, while any required amount of capital oould be ob tained for the importation of iron, notwith standing the tariff ? Why does noioapital seek with more avidity those avenues to profit whioh in the judgment of onr Ham 11 tons, Washing- tons, jeDersons, jat-Ksons, Clays, Webaters, and Lincolns, are of a national utility as vast as their growth is delicate and difficult, and which have therefore been fostered with special care by the statesmen of England, France, Belgium, Prussia, and Russia f It is because the bnrden of non-protective taxation has so offset tbe protective tariff's as to render our entire tariff system one tor revenue only. Hence Mr. Wells can assert with truth, iu hia leport, that an increase of the tariffs baa not mateiially checked importations. It ia be. cause the non-protective it. ma in our tariff. together with our internal revenue, State, aud local taxes, have so is creased the cost Of our dome f tic manufactures, and other industries wLich be had endeavored to protect, as tooffset the tortiou of the tarilld designed to be pro teclive, aud so preserve for the foreign maun facturtr a hold on the Americau market (.trot ger than that of the American producer lint we rejoice that, in some respects, it baa woikeri to proteot -our industry.
