in tho course of his remarks, says :
"In the name of common sense, is it
not time that we lifted from tho hacks
i>f tho people a burden of taxation
that makes the cost of woolen blankets,
clothing, harness, furniture, drug-,
books and almost everything else far
in excess of its real value, for the
benefit of a few shrewd interested pro
| tectionists, who pocket the proceeds
and spend asmall share of it in hiring
men to preach to th . rnloloii" labor
ing man the old exploded theory that
were it not lor protection every labor
ing mau would be turned starving on
to the community ?
' The Democrats should collect
enough revenue to run tin (iovern-
I merit economically. They should not
roll up millions in the Treasury lor
the benefit of protection!-K Every
unnecessary dollar that i- now wrung
from commerce bv an outrageously
bigli tariff would under a tariff for
revenue only go to the benefit of the
whole people through cheaper com
modities, cheaper rents, cheaper house
hold implements, cheaper transporta*
lion, cheaper clothing. The people
would find under this system that
wages would be better and that there
would be fewer of tho**- jx-riods of
depression in manufacture mid trade
that form so conspicuous a feature
under the present syste m of high pro
tection."
j "How will our "hipping be effected "
"I nder a low tariff", admitting raw
materials either fie*- <r with a very
low duty, and with the privilege
granted our no rchants | urchasing
ship- in the rh*nj-t market. I Is
lieve that our old foreign commerce
would revive, aiid that the maikets of

"I do not think that tin* election of

I "If the Republican party should

elect a President upon that issue it
would he a declaration of commercial
war against European commerce, and
Europe would retaliate by shutting

AeiITATOIt.
Di nt. IN, Dec. 11.—At the banquet .
to I'arnell to-night the room was
crowded. Davitt, in response to the
toat, "Ireland a Nation," said that,
led hv I'arnell, they might believe
themselves on the threshold of herald
ing in the Irish nation. Mayor ,
Dawson read an address to I'arnell. :
I I'arnell was eheeicd for several
minutes. He referred to the forma
tion of the Land Iycague and said :
"Never wa there a movement form
ed to contend against such a system of
robbery and fraud, in carrying out
, which there was so much moderation
displayed ami such nbseuce of crime.
There were 30,000 soldiers and 3,000
police in Ireland. The law of htAeat
cnrpit* ha*l been repeatedly violated.
The most significant example was
when a thousand Irishmen were im
prisoned hy "Buckshot" Foraier. If
Liberals wish the Irish to co-operate
with them, there must he no more
coercion of emigration. We regard
any system of emigration we have yet
had in this country w a murderous
blow against the life of our nation,
being accompanied by untold sutfer
j iogn on the part of the victim*. Three
fourth* of tlie emigrants from Ireland
during the lat y<-ar or two have been
I compelled to find home* in garret* in
New York, Bo*ton aud Montreal.
Proceeding* of the Tukea Committee
rtnnd expo-ed an indecent attempt to
a--i-t the Government to get quit of
the Irish difficulty by getting quit of
tin- Iri-h people. If we are to be
emigrated or eoerced we prefer to have
(be dose demonstrated by Tories rather
than by wolves in sheep's clothing.
The pr-M nt Iri-h Executive is eharae.
teri/ d by greater meanness and in
capacity than any of his predecessors,
liar! .-'p'-necr carne to Ireland as a sort
of inferior bottle holder to Ponder.
We are not surprised Spencer should
do if- het to imitate the biggest coer
'•ioiiit who -ver came to Ireland, and
that he -lioulii desire to give full play
to tin- unbridled insults and passions
of a foreign garrison in Ireland.
"All our experience with Kuglish
dealing* in Ireland results in the con*
c'.u*ion, the I.ngli-li arealwavs willing
to employ force to the fullest extent
aguiu-t the rnas-cs of the people. With

AN exchange says that farmer*
would do well to look out for a slwk
looking individual, who has victimised
some of the farmers in the neighbor
j ing countieaduring the past few weak*.
His plnn is this: "He has a rolt to
-ell, or hn sold one to a well-known
jor well-to-do neighbor. In the latter
| case lie always has a note, and being
. " nw-d of tnoncy is willing to dispoac
of it nt a discount. The note is din
' posed of. and the sleek looking indi
viduals moves on to perform on some
other victim. In the course of a few
days the holder of the note meets bia
In iglilmr and presents the note. The
holder is informed that he has not
purchased a nag or given a note to any
person; that the not© was a forgery.
He now realizes that he haa been
swindled out of his niuuej. l'armtxrs
should look out for this scoundrai and
buy no notes.
