Those of our readers who flourished in the early half of the presenjcentury may, per haps, remember a certain Hetfry Olay, who used to endeavor to impress upon this people his convictions upon the subject of American industry, and that fierce debates,in which the daveholdtog interest was mostly opposed to ©ay, agitated the nation and the Congress in those days, upon the question whether or no foreigners should pay toll for the privilege of markets to vend their surplus wares in, . «oung fellows below The generation or »- * h 0 Btn U£TIN forty-five years of age, whom t bringing up in the way they Bm> uld K°- may hardly credit our assertion that many otherwise sane persons then contended that Government owed no protection to the thou sands of men who planned and built our fac tories, nor to the hundreds of thousands whose toil in those various factories, main tained their families in comfort and provided kon and cloth lor the nation, nor to the mil lions of farmers who wanted a near market | and good prices for their grain and meat; but tifatftts efforts should be directed towards giving the enemies’ wolves free entrance into our sheep-iold and free exit with their plun der, by letting their pauper-made goods come &to oar market, duty free, and by farcing our banks to pay gold for the proceeds. Those were lively limes indeed. We were *ot often offended in those happy days with the spectacle of a fellow-citizen becoming and continuing rich by the exercise of inge unity, assiduity and integrity in any indns irial pursuit. Of course, large profits were realized from manufacturing the goods which our people needed; but those profits clearly belonged of rieht to a few dozen Englishmen who bad factories full of under paid white aJaves, and to a few hundred selling agents and go-betweens of those Englishmen in our Atlantic citieß. Our people knew better in those days than to allow any of their own tribe or kindred to grow sleek and comforta ble; they generally took good care to provide American manufacturers with sufficient tol and uncertainty to sharpen them to a lean and anxious condition which effectually pre vented such plethora as their English rival’ coffered from. If cotton-spinners, or cloth-makers,or iron workers made at any time a little headway, and seemed likely to become able to supply ota wants and keep our gold at home, that abominable flying in the lace of Johnny Bull and biß New Toik counter-jumper was promptly rebuked by a lower tariff,by refusal of our banks to touch manufacturers’ paper (their means being exhausted io discounting the notes of undoubted importing houses with English connections, and a specie drain to Europe being threatened),and by bankruptcy, which put their factories into unskilled hands for a term of years. During and since the late ‘•onpleasmtußSs’ With our "erring Southern sisters,” it has al - most seemed as if the logio of such teachers as Clay and Carey and Colwell, and the harder logio of stem necessity, had impressed upon the nation the fixed policy of preserving fhe national market for the national labor, of maintaining such laws as would prevent the Englishman from charging down upon the homes of our American operatives with his legions of hunger-driven thralls, of upholding nch a money system as coaid not he thrown Into min by the Bank of England working in the interest of those British manufacturers who so earned our love and confidence during the war of the rebellion. Their dreams of peaoe and security were,it stems, unfounded; for our old enemies are at York again, with a faith highly flattering to •nr self love in the Scripture that “the dog (hall return to hia vomit again, and the sow feat 1b washed to her wallowing in the, mire.’’ The Free Trade League of New York, a disinterested body, composed mainly of high minded English and German importers, whose little Custom House arrangements may • perhaps be disturbed under the new riglme, conceive that our absurd Custom House ob stacles should be altogether done away with, and they have engaged propuets to preach that gospel to a stiff-necked generation. • One of these prophets advertises in om Columns a free lecture upon “Free Eschang -0 National Kight.” Hia advertisement no falling within the immoral category, we havo received it with that urbanity which we al- ways show to bim who puts money in oar puree,and we modestly suggest that he should pay us other Tees for advertising a course of lectures upoh kindred subjects equally capable of demonstration, for instance: “Free Pro perty a National Right,” “Equality of Aliena with Citizens a National Right," “Indusvial and Commercial Domineering of England a National Right,” ‘‘Taxation without Proteo don a. National Right,” and bo on. . Another of theßo prophets stuns us with a profound and gloomy pioture, from the thock qf which our intellects are still Buffer ing. Tbißunique geniussendsWeachmem ber of Congrees an infant's fine tooth comb, Enveloped in a paper beariiag the motto: “B*- poßition of one ot the effects of the duties, and disciiminaUng duließ on ivory, in re ducing the width and thickness of fine tooth combs, and preventing exportation,” &c. We assure our readers that this traot and Alo tooth comb are no humbug, but are a serious effort of the free traders to impress upon Congressmen the calamitous effects ol our iniquitous protective system. We have pondered long over this effusion, seeking to gather the full volume of its hidden signffi cance, and we have come to the conciusi ju that its author got himself into a muddle by flrat conceiving the idea that Congressmen’s heads were infested with pestilent notions about the dudes of a Government to its pro ducing classes, and by then remembering his youthlul expei ience that fine tooth coinbs were good for getting things out of peoples heads. We fear, we greatly fear, that ‘ the duties and discriminating duties” of his oatrietic employers will require the prompt Removal of this luminary from the post he now adorns, and that his “exportation, &c., cannot be prevented. Tne liberal donations of the New York RlDg to this Free Trade League, suggest the idea that like individuals who have suddenly got money, the League may soon find a coat of aims a necessity: We propose for it A Hog Rampant at the bats of Uncle Sam’s cornfield, Or and Vert.” In conclusion we assure our manufacturing friends that their adversaries mean mischief, and may, probably enough, if unresisted, carry ruin into many a factory and many a h( me which now fancies itself secure. The superior numbers of the friends of American industry, and the jusdee of then cause, will not suffice to overcome the ma chinations of their enemies. An army can only be conquered by an army. A nume rous people, prevented by indolence, or mutual jealousy, or stupidity from combining into a solid body organized for the comtnou defence, has often ere now fallen under the assaults of an inferior but well disciplined antagonist, and such may now be the fate ol our gTeat business interests. Our railroads, bankß, merchants and bond holders are now indifferent, because the I attack seems to threaten not themselves but manufacturers; the prosperous manulaqturers are careless, because the weaker and lea* protected ones must bear the first shock, ana beßideß they will reduce wages; those weake ones, and the laborers, do nothing from mer. inability to command the necessary influence and means. Thus all are inert while the in vader ia landing and arranging his campaign; but the yoke of the impending subjugation will oppress and grind them all. ABOTUA.It «>»«« APPOISTfIEST. The announcement thatthe BenatehaB con firmed Aubrey H. Smith, Esq., a 9 Uuite< States District Attorney, for the Eastern Di* trict of Pennsylvania, will be received in thi community with very conflicting feelings. To the large class of professional and per sonal friends who know Mr. Smith as a gen tleman of high and honorable principles, o large legal experience and ability, and of in- j flexible integrity, the news is very welcome. To another class, it comes as the dismal fore boding of bad times. It signifies “Breaker ahead!” to a set of whisky swindlers and other defrauders of the public revenues, and will be regarded as a decided “onpleasantneea” Mr. Smith is precisely the sort of official that these in teresting rascals would prefer to see any where ra herihah as the prosecuting attorney of the Government H spast experience of their peculiarities, as U. 8. Commissioner, fits him to precisely for a vigorous and successful campaign among the whisky stills and other fields of revenue rascalities, that we are no surprised to hear that there has been great lamentation in the Infected districts, and around the whole circumference of the seve ral Rings, over the prospect of having a man like Aubrey H. Smith to look after the in- terests of the Government. In this, as in some other cases, the office bas Bought the man, not the man the office. Mr. Bmilh 1b a gentleman of independem means and independent feeliDgß and habits; ard now that the great Patron of the Whisky Ring is out of the way, the hindrances which his predecessor, M'- Gilpin, encoun tered, will not impede his prosecution of the dutieß of his office. We congratulate the community upon this good appointment, and anticipate much benefit from it to the public service. jUDOE BUEWNTmi’SCHIBBE. Judge Brewster's charge to the Grand Jury yesterday ought to startle the people of Phila delphia, like a trumpet-blast. The picture which he holds up to public view la one that should arrest the attention of 1 11 thoughtful men ard women. It is a very timely utteranoe from the bench, for it comes at a lime when criminals are being exalted with Boclal and public honors; when officers of the law are refusing their aid to punish crime; when a miserable sentimentalism is pleading for the lives of murderers, heedless of the lives of the murdered. Judge Brewster only declares what he knows to be true when he says : • There are certain men in Philadelphia who cannot be brought to Justice. They can beat down, almost mur der our policemen, secure ball, and. abscond until opportunity permits their re turn Others take life almost with Impunity. It has come to pass that men are shot down or stoned to death upon onr highways, and ibat the law seems as powerless for their vie dication as it was for their protection. Grand juries hesitate to find true bills, and petit juries often refuse to oonvict exceptol inferior gisdcs, frequently coupllog those vhrdlotß With leooxnmentSatioßfl to mercy. And even THE DAILY EV EE IE 6 Dll LLETIK—PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, APHII. 6,1869._^ in an occaelorial caeia of great AUroclty. when a conviction 1b followed b/j a sentence to death, the Executive ia besieged fo* a pardon* It isduring to these eifortß to thwart, justice that it has come to pass In Philadelphia that it i B more dangerous for a man to pick a pocket than to take a life. The thief is much more certain of being punished than the mur derer.” ■■..'‘,.7., Judge Brewster might have gone a step farther, and told the Grand Jury that the Prosecuiiog Attorney Sot the Commonwealth sends bills of indictment to them, or not, at his own pleasure, Sind that some of the,mate rial from whioh he draws his bold and start ling picture is furnished by cases which oc cumd months ago, and which; the District Attorney has never yet sent to the Grand Jury. ■ I ■■ i Li!. V. Judge Brewster’s Views upon the folly or abolishing the death penalty are clear, sound and strong, and the whole charge is one which should make a deep and permanent impreesion upon the public mind. The re forms that are needed must- dome, as the Judge indicates, from an improved public sentiment, and at a time when so much i» being done to dignify crime and to shield and pet and honor wrong doers, the grave truths uttered, yesterday, from the bench should be so regarded by the people that they shall shape ihenißelves into practical and radical reforms. _ . Connecticut did better, at the State election yesterday, than was expected of her. The Republicans elect their Governor by a re spectable majority. Last year a Democrat was chosen by nearly two thousand majority. There is a gain of one Congressman, and there ia a special satisfaction that the defeated man ia < x Senator Dixon, who went over to John soniem and Democracy two or three years ago. The Legislature will be Republican in both branches. This ensures the State’s rad fication of the Fifteenth Amendment, which was made a distinct issue by the Democracy all through the campaign.

Tbe Frlendn and tbe Indians fßccclaiDesMteh to tha PhUadelohU Evening Bulletin.l r/stuisaros, April o.—There soetns to have been a good deal oi misconception about the movement to bave the Friends take charge of the Indian affairs, owing probably to the fact that there bave been three distinct delegations Which have been, at different times, in conference with tbe President and Secretary Cox upon this sob j>cL The first was headed by Benjamin Hallo well, for twenty years chairman of tbe Hltkelte Society of Friends. Next, by invita tion of the President, came James Scattergood, wlih a delegation from tbe other branch, or Orthodox Society of Friends, who, in tarn, wore followed by George H. Smart, with a volnnteer delegation composed only in part of Friends. The Stuart plan contemplated giving tbe entire control of Indian matters to~ tep commissioners, who should serve gratuitously, but whoao expenses should oo paid, and who should have entire control of the selec tion of superintendents and agents and disbarse mintof tbe funds. This delegation al o asked a special appropriation at the oatset of three mil lion dollars. . „ Mr. Hallowed and the Committee of the Hick tlte Society,accompanied by Colonel Parker, bad another interview of a moat pleasant end satisfac tory character, with tbe President and Secretary Cox yesterday. Their plan 1b not so extensive as that of Mr. Btnart, as they desire it to be considered os an experiment. They do not wlßb the entire control of tbe Indian Bureau to be given to their sect at - the outset, but will select a number of men Who may be appointed agents, or who will even take the superlntendency, with its sub ordinate agencies, so tbat a fair trial can be bad of thelfhamanizlug method of solving the ques tion. They propose, also, that a Visiting Com mission ot three or five shall go out once or twice every year to examine into the working of their system. These Commissioners are to serve without pay, hot to have their expenses re imbursed. Both of tbs Societies of Friends will hold their Yearly Meetings about tbe middle of this month, and H has been arranged that they shall then choose commute* s, who will come here, about the eotb Inst, to confer with the President sad Secretary Cox, when a final disposition of the subject wilt be made. Cuba and tbe United suttee. {Bpedjil Utrpatcb to tbe Phils. Erenin* Bulletin.) Wawhiboto-x, April 6.—Kotwiibataudiog the rnneore which are current here about tbe position of the administration in regard to Cub in matter., it la et-rteio tbat President Grant ani bis Cabinet wlllruforce, to tbe beet ol tuetr ability, tbeliws of Amulcan neutrality. It is understood that tbo administration has not lu the least a desire to interfere lu tbe affairs of tbat Island. Tbe atti tude of the Federal authorities is therefore very peaceable, and it things should follow their regular course it is impossible to foresee when tbe Ex* entire will grant to the Cuban Insurgents the rigbisof belligerents. On tbe other baud, It la clear tbat there exists at this lime very serious causes of conflict be tween the United States and Spain, which arlso mainly from tbe necessity on the part of the United States to protect, at all h izards, the life and property of American citizens. It Is well known tbat many Cubans now more or less on- gagrd in the support of the insurgents are naturalized citizens of this couotry, and there are « also many native Americans actios in favor of the same side. If, as it may happen at any mo ment, one of those should be shot by the in furiated mob known as the Spanish volunteers of Cnba, the result would be to involve the United Stales Id a most serious trouble. It may bo 6aid, also, that all the talk which is going on here about the annexation of Cuba to the United States is not considered as serious by our authorities, as it is well understood that the Insurgents are fighting for independence only, and not for the purpose of selling the Island to this country. Strong opposition to annexation would be likely to appear, if it were prospective, from tbotc Btates which are largely engaged in producing sugar. Pennsylvania Legislature. Hariukuciu), April 6. Both the Senate and House were occupied during fte entire morning in consideration of ■omerous private bills. Bach bon»e took up not less than two hundred, and pasrrd them throngb a first reading.
