THE DALLY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA; FRIDAY, JANUARY 13, 1871, 8 OUR JUSUFACIBIIES. Tke rvrcs Made In Tea Years Ura pari an f th Census Iteturaa 1800 aad Ve published yesterday afternoon a prelimi nary statement of the manufactures of the city of Philadelphia for the year ending Juno 1, 1370, according to the returns of the recent censu. These returns are subject to revision, and the aggregates will doubtless be considerably In creased before they are incorporated in tVe final' oOicial report of the Census Bureau. Below we frire the aggregates of the table published by us yesterday, lo comparison with the returns for the year ending June 1, 1SX), according to the official report of the census of that year: i 1870. 1800.

A decrease of 200 in the number of establishments is shown, as compared even with the imperfect returns of 1800, while it is apparent to every nna that thorn had hfiftn a Inrfa incrflimn dnrincr the past decade. But the returns of the 0000 establishments, in round numbers, given at the two periods show a most gratifying increase. The amount of capital invested has been almost trebled, the number of employes has Increased more than one-fifth, the annual cost of labor aud raw material has almost doubled, and there Is shown almost a corresponding increase in the annual value of the products manufactured. The returns of 1800 do not give the horse-power of the establishments, and do not distinguish the ages of the employes, which omission accounts for the blanks in the above table. A large proportion of the increase exhibited is confined to a few leading industries. Under the bead of sugar refineries, the returns of 18i0 give 8 establishments, with an invested capital of $ 1,540,000, an annual consumption of raw material valued at $4,841,050, and an annual product of $6,350,700. In 1870 there were 11 establishments with an invested capital of $3,494,000, a consumption of raw material worth 1 18,206,063, and an annual product of $19,581, 374. The manufacture of carpets likewise shows a great increase. In 1800 there were 84 esta blishments, with a capital of $1,757,800, employ ing 2111 hands, consuming raw material valued at $1,194,622, and producing carpets valued nt $2,601,325. In 1870 there were 205 establish ments, with a capital of $3,863,650, employing 4715 hands, consuming $4,798,253 in raw mate rial, and producing annually carpets valued at $7,397,630. This Fxckbn Shooting Case It will be re membered that last February a wealthy sugar refiner of this city named Ficken shot an inno cent little boy for leaving a valentine under his door, and the youth will be a cripple for life. The perpetrator of this cruel deed gave $12,500 bail for his appearance, and then fled to Europe. In the usual course the bail was forfeited, and an execution was issued, but Fickea's private counsel, Messrs. Caesidy aud William B. Mann, are now seeking to have the judgment of for feiture stricken off, and for that purpose they some six weeks ago entered a rule, which stays the Sheriff's writ. Evory Saturday since this rule has been npon the list, but his never been answered to, and yet the District Attorney, not withstanding his recent action in regard to for feited recognizances, has never insisted upon the rule being disposed of. Why is this ? Tub Old Dodge. Daniel Gallagher, a cab man, has been committed to prison by Alderman Bonsall to answer the charge of extorting money from a drunken citizen. It seems that Gallagher was engaged to drive the citizen from the Baltimore depot to the upper section of the city. Instead of carrying out his contract he stopped at Ninth and Christian streets, and told the citizen that he had arrived at his destination, lie then gave him a piece of paper, which be said would answer for his fare in the city rail- i- . ft.. t i i way. VHMiuguer buuu aiici micsbcu auu committed, as above stated. Libel.

Commissioner ParUer'n Defense. Commissioner Ely S. Parker has addressed to the Secretary of the Interior a long defense of his administration, from which we takehis sum' ming np of the question: In conclusion I desire to express a convie tion which has forced itself npon my mind, that these gratuitous charges upon the Indian Office are but a determination to carry out certain theories put forth by Mr. Welsh in 1809. It will be recollected that in April, 1809, President Grant appointed Mr. Welsh as oae of the Indian Commissioners authorized to be appointed under the act of Congress of April 10. 1869. He then claimed that the expenditure of all Indian appropriations was also Intended to be placed in the nanus oi said commission, lo this propo sition Hon. J. D. Cox, then Secretary of the In terior, and myself, dissented, and in this we were ftiifttalnAH hv tha ProciHant ITa than ..ativndfl from the commission, and has since labored as a voluntary agent, it seems, keeping a watch ful eye upon the transactions of tha Indian Office, with a view to detecting irregularities and exposing them, and thereby taking from it the management oi tne maian tunas, ine de termination of the President to call in the rell clous element of the country to aid in the man ageraent of Indian affairs, and the Episcopal Society, of which Mr. Welsh is a prominent member, having had assigned to them most of the Dakotah district as their special field of labor, has opened the most plausible pre text to renew the attempt of 1869, at least so far as that society has acquired jurisdiction in Dakotah, notwithstanding the Indian umce has maintained the peace and kept the Indians com paratively quiet there and elsewhere. I will not assert that he and his associates, or any other religious organizations, are not as com petent to manage and disburse Indian funds as the Indian Bureau; bnt there being at present no law authorizing such a course, the bureau is bound to repel all snch attempts. Since the accession of President Grant to the office of Chief Executive of the nation the Indian Bureau has been conducted solely and wholly with a view to the maintenance of peace and the avoidance of expensive and horrible Indian ware, the amelioration of their condition and their advancement in civilization. I also think it proper to remark that during the past and preceding year tne communications irom .Mr. Welsh relative to Indian affairs have not always been couched In those terms wLleh might be expected Jrom one not authorized to dictate or control; but as there was a probability that his motive was a desire to promote the welfare of the Indians, his wishes have, as far as the same were practicable and not incompatible with ex isting laws, been complied with. Very respect- iniiy, your obedient servant, Ely S. Parkeh. N.Y. MONEY MAKKErOFYGHTBHDiY. Fforn the Eerald.
