THE SOUTHERN STATES
1882 AND 1872
EDITOR
Down to 1860 Southern statesmen, cap
italists and planters were free traders.—
Congressmen from that section ofthe Union
invariably opposed every measure that fa
vored a system of protection to manufac
tures. They were opposed even to the in
troduction of manufactories in the South.
In a work of nine hundred pages entitled
"Cotton is King," by E. N. Elliott, L. L.
D., President of. Planters' College, Missis
sippi, published in 18G0, and embracing
the writings and views of Cartwright,
Stringfellow, Hammond, Harper, Christie,
Hodge and Blodsoc, it is stated that '•lf
manufacturing could be prevented, and a
system of free trade be adopted, the South
would constitute the principal provision
market of the country." And again : "If
they could establish free. trade it would
insure the Am<rican market to foreign man•
ufacturers, secure the foreign markets for
their leading staples, repress home manu
factures, force a large number of leading
Northern men into agriculture, multiply
the growth and diminish the price of pro
visions, feed and clothe their slaves at low
er rates, produce their cotton at a third or
fourth of former prices, rival all other
countries in its cultivation, monopolize the
trade in the article throughout. the whole
of Europe, and build up a commerce that
would make us the ruler of the seas." And
We must prevent the (now:
once more
into agriculture, promote the cultivation
of our unimproved Western lands, until
provisions are so multiplied and reduced
in price that the slave can be fed so cheap
ly as to enable us to grow our sugar at
three cents a pound. Then without pro
tective duties, we can rival Cuba in the
production of that staple, and drive her
from our markets."
In theca quotations we have the South
ern theory of political economy and of the
road to prosperity. It not only involved
the perpetuation of negro slavery, but was
calculated to lead directly to a system of
slavery not for the negro alone, but led to
the degradation of every individual upon
the soil. It was a mutual consent. to be
comq, the 'glowers of wood and drawers of
water" for English manufacturers. Carey,
in his "Social Science," says, very justly,
and his decision is confirmed by other em
inent writers on the subject, that "The
raising of raw produce for the supply of
foreign markets is an employment fit only
fire the slave and the barbarian." The
slave was always at the foundation of the
"raw material policy" of the South, and
the barbarian was rapidly filling the land.
There is a class of human beings in all the
Southern States known as "poor whites."
Dixon, a close observer and truthful report
er for the Boston Advertiser, traveled over
the Southern States in 1865. He says :
"Whether the North Carolina 'dirt-cater,' or tilt
South Carolina 'sand-biller.' or the Georgia 'crack•
er,' is the lowest In the soile of human existenec
would be difficult to say. The ordinary plantation
negro seemed to me, when I first saw him in any
numbers, at the very bottom of not only probabil
ities, but also possibilities, so far as they affect hu
man relations; but these specimens of the white
race must he credited with baring yet reached a
lower depth of squalid and beastly wretchedness.
o a a Such filthy poverty, such foul ignorance,
such idiotic imbecility, such bestial instincts, such
groveling desires. sorb
yurstion my veracity as a man if I were to paint
the pictures I have seen ! Moreover no trick of
words can make plain the scene in and around one
of these habitations; no fertility or language can
embody the simple facts for a northern mind; and
the case is one in which even seeing itself is scarce
ly believing. Time and effort will lead the negro
up to intelligent manhood; bu' I almost doubt if
it will he possible to over lift this 'white trash' into
respectability."
J. R. Gilmore. Esq., "Edmund Kirke,"
a popular author, in -a lecture before the
Jersey City Literary Association, estima
ted the number known in the South as
the "mean whites" at four millions; and
described them as "herding together in
sparse communities and gleaning a sorry
subsistence from hunting, fishing and
poacting in the mountain districts of Vir
ginia, Upper Georgia, Alabama, Mississip
pi, and in the sand hills of North Caroli
na, the barrens of Tennessee, and through
out the rest of the South ; as hovering
around the borders of large plantations,
quartering themselves upon the 'chivalry,'
stealing the deer from their forests and
the hams from their smoke-houses. They
are far below the slaves in morals and civ
ilization; are indolent, shiftless, thieving,
lying; given to whisky-drinking, snuff
dipping, clay-eating, incest, and all man
ner of social vices. Not one in a thousand
of them can read ; not one in ten thousand
of them can write." And he had "met
many who had never seen a book or news
paper, and souse who had never heard of a
bible or a spelling book."
This is one of the results of free trade,
repudiating manufactories, and devoting
attention exclusively to producing raw ma
terials for export to the manufactories of
other countries. Carey says : "The nation
that begins by exporting raw products
must end by exporting men." But here
is a class of men reduced so low in the
scale or civilization mat tney are unfit for
exportation, excepting as a class of coolies
or slaves of less value than the negro. Yet
the policy of free trade was clutched as
firmly in the South as slavery itself, and
for years the Southern influence held
Congress in check and defeated the policy
of protection to our manufactures and pro
duction of home markets for our farmers
and cotton planters.
Bat with the emancipation of the slave,
introduction of a protective tariff, this
Southern policy of free trade has given
place to a spirit of manufacturing rivalry
that promises most beneficial results.—
While the supply of cotton for export is
fully equal to the demand, a considerable
portion of that important staple is now be
ing manufactured in the South, and other
large manufactories are going up every
year• in many of the cotton States. In a
few years every Southern State will have
its factories and produce cottons, delaines,
and mixed cotton and woollen goods for
home consumption and export . .. These es
tablishments give employment to both the
male and female population, and draw
around them villages and towns, and thous
ands of consumers, These in turn create
a market for agricultural products, and
bring the farmer into the country, in place
of importing provisions as was the case
under the old Southern policy.
Under our present system of protection
to home industries the South will become
one of the most important manufacturing
sections of the Union. Capital will be at
tracted from the East, and the North and
largely from Europe, and the thousands of
weavers unemployed in England, and
France, and Germany, will here find re
munerative employment and a home for
their families. Then King Cotton, de
throned, will become an obedient subject
and contribute to the wealth of its produ
cers instead of being carried away to enrich
other nations; the crop will no longer be
mortgaged before it grows • the four mil
lions of "poor trash" will be provided with
employment, and lifted up from their pre
sent degradation ; the colored population
will be afforded opportunities for diversi
fied branches of labor, includ , ng farming.
manutiicturing, and the various trades.—
Men and women, colored and white, will
obtain useful and remunerative employ
ment, and at the same time contribute to
the general wealth and prosperity of the
country.
OUR WASHINGTON LETTER
A PROTECTIONIST TRIUMPH !
TEA AND COFFEE SCOTT" FREE !
No Reduction of Duty on Metals !
"Business Men may Govern Themselves
Accordingly."
WASHINGTON, D. C., March 25, 1572.
Congressional Energy— T h!? Texas Fron
tier—Coloring in Whisky— Tobacco--
British Clabits Commission—New I•on
Clods—The Fisheries Treaty with Ja-
pan—The Horde Orrotna - Outlairs—
No Jurisdiction—Polo de Barnabe—
n..., autnis his Seat—Louisiana Pol
ities—No Increase of Salaries.
On Friday in the Senate Mr. Scott
achieved a triumph over the opponents to
protection that will bring joy to the mil
lions of our citizens who believe that the
tariff should be so adjusted as to secure a
sufficient revenue, and at tile same time af
ford protection to our home industries against
the products of half-paid labor in Europe.
His amendment to the Senate tariff bill
called for the transfer of tea and coffee to
the free list, and the omission of that part
of the bill which reduced the duty 10 per
cent. on metals. His amendment had been
previously debated, and when it was called
up on Friday every member had probably
made up his mind how to vote. The ques
tion had been fully examined. Nobody
was taken by surprise. The vote was call
ed for. The following is the result:
VOTE TO PLACE TEA AND COFFEE ON THE
FREE LIST.
YEAS—Messrs. Alcorn, Anthony, Borman, Cold
well, Camoron, Chandler, Clayton, Cooper, Corbett,
Davis, of West Virginia, Edmunds. Ferry of Mich
igan, Frelinghuysen, Gilbert, Goldthwaite. Hill,

Hamilton, of Maryland, Hamlin. Johnston, Mor
rill, of Vermont, Sebum, Sharman, Sumner, Trum
bull, and Wright--13.
Absent 25. Cole, nay, and Pool, yea,
paired off.
The people of the country at large have
secured by this vote much more than is
implied on its face. It is true, the remo
val of the duty from tea and coffee is in it
self a boon to every workingman and me
chanic, and to all classes depending upon
fixed salaries; but the reduction this will
cause in the revenues, of about $17,000,-
000 per annum, will for the present, secure
the country against any reduction of duty
upon articles which curter into competition with
similar goods produced at home, and pre
serve the rates of wages at their present av
erage. Senator Sherman, in a speech after
the decisive vote, s tid :
colilertioltrehttp,MtgAsightavtorie
try might as well understand it and prepare their
business for it, because the House of Representa
tives have twice, by a very large majority, decided
to repeal the duties on tea and coffee, and the
Senate has to-day by a very decided vote agreed
to repeal the duties on tea and coffee. The com
mittee, of course must acquiesce in this action, and
base their recommendations hereafter on the re
peal of the duties on tea and coffee. I, for one,
do not intend to resist it; I do not intend to seek
to reverse the decision, because, I take it, such a
decision having been made deliberately in the
Senate, is final, and I, for one, shall not hereafter
contest it, but shall accept it as settled that - tea
and coffee are to be put upon the free list. This
being so, we cannot go any further in the reduction
of duties on imported goods, unless we intend to
leave the stamp taxes and the other taxes imposed
by the internal revenue laws remain."
CONGRESSIONAL ENERGY.
Both branches of Congress continue to
dispatch daily a commendable amount of
business, mainly of a miscellaneous char
acter. There is a general desire mani.est
ed, especially among the Republican mem
bers, to avoid lengthy debates during the
remainder of the session, and by this means
bring their work to an earlier close,
The Senate has passed the Chicago re
lief bill . amendments were pro
posed and lost, and the bill finally passed
as it came from the Finance Committee,
20 to 17. They have had the tariff bill
of the Finance Committee under debate on
two occasions; but so far without final ac
tion.
In the House, the question of subsidies
to steamship companies has been very fully
discussed, and that r. 147 has met with
much opposition, the vote against the
increase of the subsidy to the Pacific line
being 87 against and 62 in favor of an
increase. The question of subsidies is not
yet disposed of in tl.e House.
THE TEXAS FRONTIER.
Raids from Mexico into Texas have
become quite too frequent, and thousands
of cattle, together with other property, are
carried off.without compensation. The
Secretary of War has laid the correspon
dence upon the subject before the House.
It is believed that prompt action will be
taken in the matter. The President has
-nnw.o ,seic ... L . ,_mPeration the propriety of
sending an additional rertimPnt. of envalry
to Texas to guard the frontier.
Many parts of Texas, settled 20 years
ago, are now uninhabitable, owing to In
dian raids. The people all along the fron
tier are daily living in terror for the safety
of their lives and property.
BURNT • SUGAR,
The Commissioner of Internal Revenue
refuses to accede to the urgent request of
distillers, who ask that the order prohibit
ing the use of coloring matter in whisky
may be withdrawn.
TOBACCO,
Delegations continue to come to Was&
ington asking for a uniform tax on tobac
co. They will not succeed.
BRITISH CLAIMS.
The British-American Claims Commis
sion are laboring with commendable indus
try. The time for putting in Claims has
expired. The Commission hope soon to
close up their work,
NEW IRON CLADS.
The Senate Committee on' Naval Affairs
have been discussing, at length, the con
dition of the navy, and a sub-committee,
consisting of Senators Cragin, Nye, Alcorn
and Stockton, has been appointed to con
sider the subject of creating ship-yards for
the construction of iron dads.
TIIE FISIIERIts,
That part of the Treaty of Washington
which referred to the regulations of the
fisheries was not called up in the House
on the 19th, in accordance with previous
arrangement, but was postponed to a future
day. It is believed that the question will
not be acted upon at all ; and that the
fishing interest will undergo no change, at
least for a year to come.
TREATY WITII JAPAN
Vice Ambassador Ito and Okubo, of the
Japanese embassy, accompanied by their
secretaries and attendants, have left Wash
ington for Japan via San Francisco, ex
pecting to sail from that city on the lst
proximo. They are bearers of the pre
liminary draft of a protonl fma new treaty
with Japan, and expect to return to Wash
ington the last of May with the approval
of their Government to the protocol. The
other embassadors will remain in this city
until the business far which they are here
is dispatched.
THE NORTH CAROLINA OUTLAWS.
The New York Herald r e it a corres
pondent to North Carolina to write up the
operations of the Strongs and Lowrcys, a
hand of outlaws who conceal and defend
themselves in the great swamps of Robeson
county against all efflirts to capture them.
A number of grapicletters were written up
concerning these characters, and published
in the Herald, when the correspondent
announced his intention to visit and in
terview the outlaws or perish in the at
tempt. He started ostensibly for the
swamps • hut. turned up in Washington,
D. C., While Wilmington, N. C. is alarmed
for his sifety and the Herald publishes
long letters from there stating that their
correspondent is in the hands of the out
laws. G. A. Townsend wrote "The Swamp
Angels" correspondence for the Herald,
and he is now in Washington, but the
Herald is careful not to say 59, as that
would spoil a carefully planned sensAtion
story.
NO JURISDICTION
The U. S. Supreme Court has decided
that it has no jurisdiction over the Ku
Klux cases appealed, and therelime cannot
hear arguments as to the constitutionality
of the law.
POLO DE DARNABE.
The new Spanish Minister has arrived
in Washineton. He denies the charge
made by the press, that he is unfriendly to
the United States.
lI:',IVEN CLAIMS lIIS SEAT.
Ex-Representative C. C. Bowen, from
South Carolina, is now in Washington,
urging his claim to the seat iu the House
now occupied by the colored member -De
Large. The House Committee on elections
have decided that Bowen is entitled to the
seat.
LOUISIANA POLITICS.
Governor Warmouth, of Louisiana, is
now here, and accompanied by Senator
West has had an interview with the Pres
ident. At the conclusion of the confer
ence a delegation of colored men from New•
Orleans, with Senators Kellogg ; Packard,
Carter and others, also had an interview
with the President, by appointment, the
subject discussed being the political affairs
of Louisiana and the divisions of the repub

Notes from the State Capital
HARRISBURG, March 22, 1872.
All is bustle and business at the Capitol.
The Legislature is to adjourn in two weeks.
A great deal yet remains to be done in this
short time. Bills in number as the sands
on the sea shore, yet remain to be acted
upon. Bills of Local Option for every al
ternate ward, street., county, township and
borough within the confines of the great
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Bills in
corporating banks, machine shops, gas
companies, saw-mills, bridge companies,
and railroads, of every conceivable grade.
Bills offering rewards fir theof
killing
Cies:, lions, tigers, and elephants. ISair
permitting all kinds of corporations, offi
cers and pa ,ple to barrow money. Bills
permitting the removal of churches, the
raising a , d removal of the dead.and the sell
ina. of "the same." Bills imposing fines and
imprisonment fin. swearing. lying or steal
ing, or for looking at anybody. Bills to
appoint additional notaries public. Bills.
recounting subjects as numerous and vari
ous as are words in Webster's Dictionary,
or the articles of an Encyclopitoia. Those
who have not served in Legislature of a
great State don't know of the amount of
work to be done.
It is feared. that by adjourning so soon,
the books of laws fbr this year, may not
reach more than fifteen hundred pages.;
while it was confidently hoped that it might
be made to reach two thousand—thus plac
ing this Legislature ahead of any of its pre
decessors in the race for large books. If
they fail this term in this laudable effort,
their constituents should attribute their ill
success, not to want of application, but to
the great prevalence of disuse in Hariis=
burg during the past winter, which unfit
ted many members and senators from at
tending to duty half the time.
During the past week, the Appropriation
Bill has received particular attention in the
Senate—while in the House. the Military
Bill has caused much ado. The Bill is too
long for publication at present; hitt when
it has been sufficiently amended, trimmed
down, and passed, we may give an abstract
of it.
Meantime, we may be excused if we say
something in regard to the place known as
Harrisburg; and the subject is more suit
able at this time, as a bill has been intro
duced, proposing the appointment of a,
commission to look up a site, (probably
Philadelphia,) for new Capitol buildings.
Harrisburg is a town of magnificent pre
tensions; and contains a population of 115,-
000. It is a great railrord centre—and
ought to be double as large as it is. Not
having examined Mitchell's Geographies
lately, We do not know what it is noted for.
We have not as yet seen anything very
uoialo about it. its churches are ordina
ry; its hotels infra•ordinary; its theatres
nil; its monuments non cat contatibus. Its
water works came so nearly putting an end
to a large number of its own citizens, as
well as to some of the law-makers of the
Commonwealth, that we don't wish to speak
further of them. Its railroad depot wait
ing -rooms, are execrable, and cause a great
amount of profanity, inasmuch as but few
persons wait over ten minutes in them
without giving expression to numerous
oaths.
Its whiskey is pronounced bad. It now
goes under the name of pump-water. In
the winter, when the idea pr3vailed that
the hydrant water was impure, the inhab
itants took to drinking pump-water. Ac
cording to the report of eze medical inves
tiouting committee, the result was worsa
than if they had continued to imbibe the
thrice pure waters of the Susquehanna.
The city guide books mention Fort
Washington as one of the curiosities to be
visited by travelers. Fort Washington is
an earthwork, which was made on the high.
hill opposite the town on the west bank of
the Susquehanna. It was probably the
tbrmidable appearance of this work which
caused Gen. Lee to desist from his pur
posed descent upon Harrisburg, in 1803,
and to wander away to Gettysburg, where
he got the squelcher caricatured in Roth
ermel's "great painting." Great ! It is
forty feet long. And this mention reminds
us that the whereabouts of the said "great
picture," is now as little known to any offi
cial at Harrisburg, so far as we can learn,
as was known to Hooker, the position of
the army of Lee, some time previous to the
battle in question.
Harrisburg has one redeeming point.
It has euellent school buildings, and its
schools are well conducted. With goad'
schools, and thorough and careful educa
tion of the rising generation, all wrongs
may be righted.
We understand that there is a Mayor
and police force, but in a residence of three
months in the town, we have not seen
more than three or four policemen. It
may be possible that they only put hi an
appearance during special emergencies.
No special emergency has arisen during
our residence here, so for as we have been
able to learn.
At the close of the "late unpleasant
ness," the citizens of Dauphin county felt
'very patriotic. In the fullness of their
hearts they determined to erect a monu
ment to the memory or the brave sildiers
of Dauphin county, who, in the late wor,
had lost their lives in their country's ser
vice. At the corner of Second and State
streets, in Harrisburg, was begun the erec
tion of a massive, square stone tower.
When it had reached a height of fifty feet
perhap3, the funds became exhausted, and
the workers ceased. To this day the work
has not been resumed ; and the un , ightly
shalt, with derrick pendant, still stands to
mock the city's pride. A short time since
the city council pissed an ordinance look
ing to the removal of the said shaft as a
nuisance. For shame !
If there is a time when the wind don't
blew almost unceasingly in Harrisburg.
that time does not occur during a session
of the Pennsylvania Legislature. We wish
a calm would come occasionally during the
session, or at least the streets were cleaner.
The said streets abound in toad dust, coal
dust, and ashes, and a man who wishes to
. preserve his eyes for future use, dare not
walk on the streets with his eyes open,
This may be why we have not seen any
thing notable in the town. TELASCO.

WARNING,
s VERY oest,
MANY CriIZENS le; . this county who, had been
persuaded to buy other kinds of Sewing Machines,
which seemed at
. firet to work well on a tolerable
range of work, have expressed to me their reyrete
that the genuine original Eli. Howe Sewing Ma
chine—the Lest in the world—had not been brought
to their notice heron. purchasing. And judging
from the number of offers I have, to trade Howe
machines for all other kinds, I estimate that the
people or this county have lost more than 520.000
by foiling to get, at the first, the genuine Howe
Machine. It is Made on sound mechanical
avoids rickety cog-wheels, and is FO con
structed too to have perfect control by adjustment,
and provision made to restore lost motion when it
wears. thereby enuring extraordinary durability.
and adaptation to the greatesLyange of work. Now
as iny traveling agents may not be able to visit
every person in time, and as many inferior ma
chines of different kinds are still being urged en
the public. I hereby GIVE NOTICE, that before
you event your time or money on any other ma
chine, the safest plan is, either to write to one di
rect, or inquire of agents for the famous Elite
Howe, machine, from Brown's Carpet Store, Hun
tingdon, Pa.. and take no agents word for it, that
the machine is genuine, unless it has the medal
lion at the bend of this article, imbedded in the.
bed plate of every machine.
