TOE l)AILYf EVENiNQ TELEGIiA PH PHILADELPHIA,' ' THURSDAY, 1 APRIL 20 . 8 CITY mTEIXIGEriCB. PROTECTION. ' ' i ! Mettinff ef Merrhnntfl and Mnnofinctiirein lU the Hoard of Trade Koomn. . Tfctn morntng at 11 o'clock, in pursuance of a call namrronsly signed, a large mooting of merchants, anofacturem, and others interested in American rodnction, and protection thereto, was hld at the Hoard of Trade Kooms, Fifth and t'hesnnt streets. The call alluded to states that the nieetltm was ar ranged In view of the persistent, active, and publicly announced efforts of (he "Kree Trale league" of w York to throw open our American markeW to the European manufacturer by decreasing or re novlng the present inadequate protection to do mestic industry. The meeting vm organized by the calling of the lion. Morton McMlchael to the chair, and the elec tion of Cyrus KUler, Esq., aa Secretary, on motion of jMr. Wharton. The Chairman then stated the object of the moot ing to be for the purpose of taking counsel together relative to American Industry, which, at the prenont time, more than ever before, Is threatened by the advocates of free trade. The call for the meeting was then read, after which the Chairman announced that the introduc tion of business was In order. Tbe Secretary then, ou motion, presented and read a report as follows: Hon. Morton McMichntd, Chairman Rlr:Th Indna trial League of Penrmylvania bi-Knii iu work under a jir-r Tifiional orftanization in Juno, lwi7. at. a titno whon fintrome d.prmsion of manufacturing tndimtry dinheartonod 0111 4oyr and oauaod much quftVnna anions workinRmcn, and when political inane ahwirbed the at lent ion of the pns and of men in puhlin ntatinn nueh an extent that, it win difficult to raise the qneMion of pmtvr.tinn to home in durtrj and to make it prominent before the citizens of tiie (State and the country. It waa determined at the ontant. to (five lis labors nynta matic character, and, if pniwiblo, to enlist in it aofviee the workinimien in ditlernnt iuduRtrinn, tho orficera and aiembera of trade and labor union, and, if pottaihle, to wak them axenta of the Iniie, To this ena mon of baracter and intluence among their follows, not connected with the manafrement of buniiiHiw, were nought ont. tiy an. an of confidential circular letters addrottHed to their employers, and they wore then directly addrenaivl from ttue office. A corpa of correspondents reprexonting every important Industry of the Btato, of different political opinions, and sympathetic, inditferent, and in many instances hostile to our purposes, was thus (rradually en rolled, and it baa been constantly extended into other States. An agricultural list was also formed from enrres- Rondents nominated by members of the Pennsylvania enat and House of Representatives, and members of tkintrrens. The lairae has now more than twelve hundred workingnien on its books, residinft in the States of Penn sylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, North Caro lina, Iowa, Tennessee, Georgia, and lxiuisiana. Most of them act as agents for the League, receiving papers and docamentsin packages for distribution among their fel lows, and all are believed to bo heartily in sympathy with ite objeota and purposea. By persistent efforts this office has also succeeded in put ting itself in communication with the secretaries of about two hundred associations of workingmen, and haa been greatly assisted by them in many ways.and it is believed t hat their organization could be very effectively used in fur ther agitation for revision of the tariff in the interest of American industry. After the permanent organization of the League wae effected, by the confirmation of its provisional President and Secretary, the election of a Treasurer, and the for mation of a Representative Council, its work assumed tbe two-fold character of educational and practical, and under the immediate direction of an Executive Commit tee consisting of Messrs. Wharton, Lea, and Hellers the labor of forming public sentiment was supplemented wit h that of giving it such practical direction as might result in favorable Congressional ant ion. It is gratifying to state that the plan of operations adopted at the outset accomplished more than was expected, and the very con siderable work of circulat ing pet itions for a revision of our tariff laws in the interest of American industry was per formed mainly by laboring men, in many instances with little sympathy or aid from their employers, and often with out their knowledge. These men are all known to us, and stand ready for further services. It is to them that the League is principally indebted for the intluence it baa wielded, and its present resources for efficient labor. Their letters, preserved by this office, show that they are fully alive to the importance of industrial and financial questions as affecting abor and its rewards, and the honor and prosperity of the ountry. In the opinion of the writer, the only hope of exercising a watchful and efficient guardianship against the encroachment of foreign trade lies in close alliance with the men whose brains and hands are operating our home industries. What are called tbe educated classes are being gradually but surely brought over to the side of tree trade through the intluence of our principal colleges, which, even in tbe State of Pennsylvania, are not known to teach any other system of political economy. This state, went is made after personal inquiry into the subject, and it is confidently asserted that the absurdities, sophistries, and platitudes of the free-traders are all found in the work of which Francis Wayland is the author, and which is tbe principal if not the only text-book upon the subject in use in the Htnto of Pennsylvania. It was taught in the Phila delphia High Hcbool until within a year past, and no other book replaces it. It is now taught in Girard College. A gentleman connected with the League lately endowed an educational institution of tbe State most munificently, and it was not a surprise but it was a mortification to learn, upon inquiry, that the money would be used to spread free ' trade doctrines among the youth of tile country. It is not necessary to do more than advert here to the labors of the Representative Council of the League in agi tating tbe turiS question in Congress. A general schedule which aimed to reunite conllicting interests, granting only such turers nrgi -und nrr-vv members of the committee were personally most active, while this office brought to their aid the farmers, me chanics, and manufacturers within the scope of its influ ence, and also secured the helpful support of the press of Pennsylvania. The league has made gratuitous and systematic distribu tions of 34.U00 copies of tbe Satinnul Anurintn and 19,KK) copies oft lie lmiwtrial American. Over a page of this latter paper this office has editorial control. It has dis tributed many thousand speeches, letters, circulars, etc., relating to the interests of labor and revision of the tariff. Petitions and journals of nearly twenty-five thousand fanners, mechanics, and business men were received, arrangod, and forwarded to members of Congress by this office. It prepared and published a Far mers' and Mechanics' Almanac, which gives in a plain and, it is believed, interesting manner an explanation of the tariff question, and such facts and arguments as will enable its readers to combat tho sophisms of the Free Trade League, and the journals edited in the interest of foreign tsaders and manufacturers. Many thousand copies of this document have been dis tributed. The work of this office has been performed with the services of one assistant clerk and the occasional era nloyment of extra labor. The onerous and responsible 1 duties of the Representative Council have been performed mainly by tbe sub-committee, who have, aa occasion re quired, obtained the aid of the most competent statisticians it the country. ... The League is very greatly indebted to the Dress of the ' States, and to a large number of members of Congress, for intelligent sympathy and very effective support. Whoever may be appointed to carry on its work in the future, the present management confidently claim for it tbe active co operation of employers and. employed, and the helpful uuninul hv .if all ffOOO oiti.onO. The following preamble and resolutions were then nnantmouHly adopted : Whtrea. The Congressional Committee, of Ways and Means is instructed to consider the propriety of revising the Tariff laws, and to recommend to Congress at its next session such legislation upon that subject as may seem to be expedient ; therefore, A'wiofwrf, that the following state ment be presented to the said committee as embodying the views of the productive industries of this country : First. That the development of our own resources and 4.bA Hrm nrMHAKHion of our own markets are much more im portant than foreign commerce to the welfare of all the ' people of this nation, to the solvency of the Government, - ... .1... . . n 1 .., ( nr aIiuj. nf i 1.1 ... i ..-.... . . and that by no other method can a durable resumption of specie payments oe nuaineu iimu uy inureasiug American prodoctiop and ohecking importation. Hecoadly. That to maintain such possession of our own . markets, and thus to attain financial inileendence, we must be able to produce at home nearly all the manufac tured articles needed by our people, including those which require the facilities of great establishments, of many workmen trained to special aits, and of large capi- industries which the advances in the arts and the progress of civilization require. Thirdly. That it is imDOSAihle for such great establish- lishments to prosper, for smaller ones to spring up, and for tne new inaustries to uikc root unuer a ncaie anu some times unfriendly policy which holds them constantly in fuu r gtl rAvulHifins. Fourthly. That as a means of promoting regular growth In tbe productive powers of our country, it is the duty of tho ii,,vrnmnt to announce, adhere to, and steadfustlv act upon the policy of defending its citizens in their indus trial conflict with foreign nations, of assuring to t hose who . u,i,iwrtiii0 1 lie Government ti marked preference in our markets over aliens who are our rivals in peace and our foes in war, and of ouiiging foreigners wuo wisu wi reap h. udiininm nf the liet.ter markets created by our iiisn- ' tin ions, to pay toll upon the goods they send here, and thus .Iiun tfia ndmnuiri iiiHiutAiniiur those Institutions. Fifthly. That a policy of linn and steady protection to a rinn inihiutrv heinir distinctly announced, a general tariff law shoald be framed embracing the entire range of imported goods anu superseuuig ui ionner lurni iuwb, job duties being made specific so far as conveniently ixissible, and Uign enougo wi anoru uur wnKp ami iwwm . ..,... tj such American workingmen and employers as apply themselves with assiduity, skill, and intelligence to industries suited to our condition and resources. The schedule preparod by the Pennsylvania Industrial Leugiie, which is founded mainly nnon tha legislation (unfortunately not concurrent) nf both bouses of Congress, and upon the Henortnf the Commissioner of the Uevenue. and which, while largely increasing the free list and converting numerous ad valorem into specific duties, reduces the rates upon many articles, and proiKises but moderate increase in aiiycase, is worthy of attention as a serious effort by competent i to frame a symmetrical system ot duties on imports. roxtbly. That in order to diminish tho labor of Con- gress, and to expedite those future modifications n tariff legislation which the development of new industries or ihLh.iuMMof trade may from tune to time render do- sirable, some department, burouu. or commission sUould k....',. ...,e.Hllv charged with the duty of keeping watch over this subject, with authority to examine wit nesses, make inveMigauunp, oo -nut to Congress at the opening of each session a brief re port, accompanied, wnen necessary, ujr a ui,u u... embodying such legislation as may seem expedient. Seventhly. Kxperience having clearly shown that the maintenance of domestic production is the only sure method for reducing the prices of manufactured goods, it is grossly nnjuiit to the employers of operatives t; charge them, when seeking for the legislation needful for keeping their hands employed, with endeavoring to aggrandize themselves at the expense of the public. They 4o not desire or expect for themselves or their employes to escape from the toil and strife which are the common lot of man, but they protest tmiiist being obliged to follow the employers of other , ountrie in eiperuueptinft on the degree of starvation and 4egradatt4a which cm be endured by a laljoring popula tion, aud they elaun that our national legislalieo should be will as to pernurt uur iiroduoiutf class ut to njuy civilizing Hindn,iln iiMkiantinn att Wi n lit nrAEapvo ship muiiiifux. r:iT." .".... t(iin ?::::;r:. through, rrom city to wiy, tne receipts ul nnon lh. .It.nllnn n I linirrnu In nmiuinut YVCfC ia,OZ,oao.

Kolvi, That a committee of be apiiointed hy the Chairman to present tho foregoing statement to tbe Committee on Ways and Moans, with power to oonfer with that committee, and to take such action in the premise aa may eonduee to the common welfare. Upon motion of Mr. Fraley, the blank In the last resolution was ordered to be lllled by the executive committee of the Pennsylvania Industrial League Messrs. Joseph Wharton, Ueury C, Lea, and William (Sellers. Mr. Wharton then, on behalf of the Industrial League, made an appeal for funds to further the ob jects of that association. Mr. Stebblns, Secretary of the National Industrial League, read a report exhibiting ie progress of tho National Association since the date of Its organisa tion. He aontrasted Its objects with those of the Free Trade League of New York, showing how this latter association is employing lecturers all over tho country, and making every endeavor to disseminate their views. Tho "Kree Traders" raised lfl,000 In tne course of an hour at one of their meetings, and can now raise alnmst. any amount. From this we can see how much wo have to do to combat them. Ntill we have not been idle. We have published and distributed "tariff tracts to the number of at least n.ivio.mK). and their intluence has hern Invaluable. We now propose to follow the example of the "Free Trade" Leagne. and also Bend out lecturers. Mr. Htebblns then read a number of letters and telegrams from prominent: gentlemen In various part of the country, Pledging tbe support of thelrnections to the objects of the National Industrial League. Mr. Lee, a member of the Kxee.iitivo Committee of the Pennsylvania League, st sited that In speaking for his colleagues he wished the discontinuance of that particular association, ns it would naturally merge Into the National League. ' Mr. Fraley, however, did not think that the Penn sylvania League should be abandoned; that the strength of the National Industrial League would consist In well-organized smte associations.- In this way we make a powerful effort In tho State an euortwnicn in the past has uniformly proven a success. . Mr. Fraley then reviewed the history of previous attempts to rear national leagues, and showed that they must depend upon the mate organizations. He moved, in conclusion, that the "Pennsylvania Industrial League" should lie continued on Its pre sent basis. Mr.JamesMllllkensuidt.bat he thouifht the ques tion belonged to members of the convention, und as this was a public meeting, culled In the Interest of protection generally, he would feel some embarrass ment In voting upon It. Hi; believed that In protec tion the foundation of the Government rested. In a recent meeting of the free traders In New York, Greece was presented tw a country devoted to the principles of free trade, and tho speaker thought no better argument than the present condition of Ureoco could be adduced In favor of protection. i ne cnairmau then stated that, in his judgment, any person present wh entitled to vote on the reso lution. Mr. Fraley's resolution was then nut. and it was unanimously carried. Adjourned. CAMDEN AM) AM HOY RAILROAD. Annual Meeting of the Storklioldern of the t onifiiinv. Yesterday afternoon the annual meeting of. the stockholders and the election of the olllcers of the Camden and Amboy Jtiillrnaa Company were held in tho city of Camden. After the organization of tho meeting. Ashbel Welsh, Ksq., President of the com pany, read a lengthy and extremely satisfactory re port, In which he recorded another year's progress in the history of this great enterprise. Some of the facts and statistics embraced in the document pos sess great interest. The canal which is used in connection with the railroad la Blxty-nve miles In length, which, besides forming a link of Inland navigation from the Chesapeake to Long Island Sound and to the Lakes, connects also with the great Pennsylvania coal fields,' and is navigated by vessels of 260 tons. Tne company has two main lines of railway between the two largest cities of the Union, which, with their branches, cover 168 miles of roadway, 104 of which Is double and 61 single track, with 60 miles additional of sidings ; and holds controlling intercut in 2o miles of auxiliary railroads in all 680 miles of track. Over anu uuove ail mis it nas terminal property or the Value of six millions of dollars, and a vast amount of rolling and floating stock. Tho cost of the companies' Investment, not including cash und materials on hand, was, on the lirst or January last, thirty and a nail millions or dollars, of which 1' millions was In stock, a little over la minions in loans, aim tne rest mrniBiicu out of earnings. The receipt of tho four companies In 1808 were T,8ao,f2. The number of passengers carried exceeded six millions, 6tw,ooo of whom were from which of p asse ti ll ve per cent, per annum, which, if continued, will give an annual Increase of passenger receipts of 1180,000, with little additional expense. Tho whole number of passenger trains now operated dally is more than a hundred, of which twelve, each way. run through from :lty to city. Upwards of a million of tonnage was moved on the railroads, the freights on which amounted to $2,:(92,017. The ton nage annually Increases at an average of 15 per cent., or a little more than doubles every five years. By reason of the greater increase of low-classed ton nage, the increase or ireignts does not Keep pace with tonnage, and doubles in but about six years; at that rate the Increase should be $300,000. Tho re moval of transit duties heretofore imposed by tho Legislature is made the subject of much gratulation as a relief from a burden, and a cnecK mat nas nitncno interposea to uura uack freight. The tonnage by the canal last year was over 1 millions, and the receipts 012,10T. Tho average increase is ubour, i per cent, per annum, giving 165,000 increase, with little or no Increase of expenses. The receipts of the companies are largo and steadily Increase. Occupying the most favora ble around between tne two largest cities oi tne country, and forming a link in the great through line irom JNortn to Miutn anu rsouinwesi, n is claimed tliat, if railroading can anywhere bo made prolltable. it should lie by this company. Within the coming three years, its annual receipts are estimated at over ten millions of dollars. To accommodate even tually this rapidly growing trade, the company has bargained for what Is known as llarsiraus Cove at Jersey City, opposite New York a tract of 70 acres, witn 1300 leet or river rrout ana nearly nair a miio Inland. The report warmly commends this pur chase, as not only cheap, but as Indispensable to the company's future business, though it is not proposed to go lmmeuiateiy ou witu its improvements, u no Legislature, at Its lute session, authorized tho companies to increase their stock sixty per cent. This privilege it Is not proposed to now nso to an extent of more than ten or twenty per cent, on the present stock of the companies, to oe onereu iiro raw to tho stock holders semi-annually in 7 per cent, scrip, converti ble into stock. Thbi, however, has not yet been de finitely determined. The death, within the past year, of three prominent managers of the company was announceu. AppropnitTO resolutions passed, being feelingly seconded by Messrs. liatzmer, Brad ley, and Welch.

To-diiw iu Pittsburff, Lewis Lane, the neirro who was convicted of wlfc-polouing aud sen tenced to be hung, is to expiate his crime on the aallow8. Notwithstanding the reports which have been in circulation for the past few weeks iu regard to his being unwell, he appears to be in tho best of health, nnd will probably stand upon the scaffold a sound man phj'sically. As the time for the execution approaches, there are a large number of requests to see him, the most of which are refused, from the fact that Lauc has repeatedly expressed the wish that none should bo admitted except his eouusel, attending priest, and the Sisters of Charity. By these he is fre quently visited and always appears to be glad to sec them. ' Yesterday several of the members of the press were admitted to the cell of the prisoner, but the interview, as nas been tne case with all ionner ones, was -not- very satisfactory, so far as the procuring of news was concerned. Hen the party entered tlie cell Lane con signed to their use. aa seats, ' the chair, tho trunk, and the bed, and quietly seated himself on the etetim-pipe which ruus through the apartment, in a style which plainly said, "iientle men, if you have come here out of curiosity you will not be very well satlsticd." The ouly car peting which the cell contained was n rng, winch tne prisoner naa extemporized, una Hi shape it bore a striking resemblance to a coflln. Lane yesterday appeared more nervous than nt any time fcince his confinement, and moved about as though he was ill at ease, and was beginnlug to realize tne terrible doom which aw aits uim. After some general remarks as to the pri soner's health, and his being resigned to his fate, in wuicii the talking was all done by the visitors, the following question was asked, with a view of obtaining some facts concerning his early life: Question Some of the papers have stated that you wore born iu Kockinghuin county, Virginia, ana oiners mat you were ooru in ixiudon county; which is correct ? Answer I don't know. Question Bo vou still urotust vour innocence of tho crime of whicli you haw been convicted? Answer I have nothing further to say about that; I am going to huug for it, and do uot tare to uiscuss tne mutter. Question Do you not think that you had a fair trial? Answer Certainly, I do nut. (This was said in n scornful and derisive maimer.) Question Wo have understood that there was some diilleulty about obtaining witnesses; that there were some gentlemen of respectability where you formerly resided who would have testified as to your good character, and this might have had weight with the jury as the ease stood. Answer Yes, that is perhaps the case, but it is of no use now; it is too Into too laU Question It is the desire of tho press of this city to do you justice in tho mutter, and if yu wish to intike any statement of your side of the ease, it would bo cheerfully published. Answer I have no statement to make tho siatcmeiiU have all been made. It don't make auy dill er euco about the mattar now. Question It would bo natural to suppose that a person In the situation in which vou aro placed would be anxious to have tho public entertain as favorable an opinion us possible concerning your case? 'Answer J. don't care what tho people think, it can inufco no difference- with ine, and I don't care what tho papers suy ubout me. The parly soon after withdrew, assuring the prisoner that they did not visit hint out of curiosity, but simply as a duty. He was evi dently pleased to seo them depart, and shook hands with them more cordially when they left than when they entered. WEDDING INVITATIONS, ENGRAVED IN th newest, and boat manner.

M The negro Lane was executed a few minutes after 12 o'clock. He was convicted on the charge of having caused the death of his wife by poison. It transpired during the. trial that I.ano was a male Borgia, he having poisoned no less than four wives previous to the last for which he was tried. During his imprisonment he has been apparently indifferent to his fate, but last night ho was completely unnerved and cried for some time. His spiritual adviser, a Catholic priest, has been unceasing in his ministrations, and to all appenrances finally brought the extraordinary criminal to a realization of his position. He was tip nt an early hour this morning, and appeared cheerful, almost to exuberancy. He did not entertain the slightest hope of reprieve, and seemed to be of an easy conscience. So great was the care exercised by tho officials that everything should bo in perfect order, that the execution was delayed longer than expected. The condemned ascended the scaffold with a firm step, and after the cop had been placed on his head, was, for the second time, asked if he had anything to sny to those assembled, ne answered no, and continued to follow the priests in recitation of the litany. A son by one of his former wives refused to visit him, saying that he poisoned his mother, and lie justly deserved to die on the gallows. Laue died easily, scarcely a struggle being perceptible. , , FROM NJSJt" YORK. Brooklyn llan n "llnerty" Cane. New Yokk, April 39.

"The stork market was ajraln excited to-day for t lie shares which have been the prominent features dur liur the past few weeks, and for one which Is compa ratively fresh in the speculative fever.

The price uuder the first sales declined from loi to 99', but reacted later Iu the day to 102 V, amid considerable excitement. It Is said that the Michigun Southern Company, by an old resolution, were empowered to convert and sell 2,'KXI,0i0 of their convertible bonds when the stork should touch par. This value was reached vesterday, and by some It Is thought that tho first saicswere made as a 'short' speculation, but later the Impression Ruined a foothold that the stork house referred to were merely the agents of tho coin iianv in placing the new stock on the market. Inas much as the total amount of liabilities of the corpo ration is not changed by the conversion of the liomls, the reaction iu price towards the close Is more clearly understood. Indeed, as tho bonds havu borue a flxed annual rate of Interest, and were a first lien upon tlie road, their conversion leaves the aiuuut of tw0 niHllf subject to receive such rate of interest as the earnings will allow. Hence the addition to tiio capital stock Is apparent ooiy which again account for ihe upward turn in the price of stock. New York Central was also ex cited and irregular, selllnj?

GHOST PHOTOGRAPHY. How the Hon. Colorado Jewett Kneeled and i-myeu ivr a i.iioni 10 l onie. , The New York correspondent of a San Fran cisco paper writes what follows: Years ago a man was in the employ of Bigc low & Rennard, a great jewelry firm in Boston, in the capacity of engraver. He was an inge nious fellow, and bought among other things a photographic apparatus, and went to taking pic tures for amusement. Mr. Kennard tells the story that one day he took a plcturo on a plate that had been previously used and rubbed out, and when he developed it tho original picture came out more faint and shadowy. ' As a Joke he showed it to a spiritualistic friend, and told him it was tlie work of a spirit. The latter readily believed it, called some of his friends in, all wondered at it, and some sat for their pictures and were perfectly taken, and taken in. 80 the business started up, and the artist was doing well. One afternoon the Hon. Colorado Jewett called at the artist's studio, and said ho wanted the spirits of the great men of the past to come to his aid, and inspire him to do great things, lie wanted his picture taken, with tho spirits of tnese men in the background, and asked the artist to put h lin through in that lino. Tho artist told him he could not do it then, but if he would come again he would acctuimodutc him, or at all events would make tho effort. In the evening tho artist went out and pro cured tho portraits of Webster, Clay, Calhoun, Benton, and Napoleon, and the next morning before Jewett arrived ho had tho plates properly prepared. Jewett eat for five pictures in suc cession, and one alter another the great men gathered around him. Jewett was delighted, but he wauted Washington, nnd begged tho artist to bring tho Father of his Country to him. The artist conUI not do it, as he had no Wash ington in the house, and finally Jewett knelt upon tlie floor and pntved to have Washington come to his aid. But Washington didn't come; the artist thought it would bo carrying the loke too far, and so the great American diplomat de parted without him. For additional Marine Newt tee Inside Page.
