When und,lt )0 IRK for, American Industry. Df the thirty millions of American people, 'about one-sixth (five millions) are pro ducers. In a year their argregate labor amounts to about the work of fif een hundred millions of days. Now, if through a favor. -able policy of the Government, or any •other cause, national industry is stimu lated, and we have what are popularly termed " good times," the average wages of this great army of laborers are increased at least twenty-five cents a day, which pro iluces in a year $375,000,000, or more than enough to pay all the expenses of the Fede ral Government. If, on the other hand, industrial interests are depressed, many workmen thrown out of employment, fac tories closed up, and agriculturalists "de prived of profitable markets—so that we have what are known as ``bad times"—the average wages sink at least twenty - - five cents a day below their natural standard, and the producers of our country suffer to the extent of $375,000,000. The moral of this obvious statement is plain enough. It proves that in the present financial condition of the country, the na tional credit as well as the individual in terests of its working classes, require that our industrial system should be diversified as much as possible, and that no pains should be spared to provide profitable work for all our citizens. The Government may render very mate rial assistance in securing this end, by pro tecting our manufacturers against foreign competition, and the people can do still more by :skilfully and promptly availing Themselves of such protection, and by se lecting the most favorable fields for their labor. During the continuance of the war the premium an gold and the equipment of our armies developed new industriee that had previously been almost unknown in our country. If possi ble, they should be fostered and rendered permanent, since peace has been established. In each of the four great departments of human labor—agriculture, manufactures, commerce, mining—the boundless re sources of America offer a wide scope for the energy, industry, and genius of our citizens. And most zealously do they, in ordinary times, avail themselves of these advantages, the - workers falling into line at the posts where they can be most useful with as much regularity and precision as trained veterans upon a battle-field. But our past experience has significantly warned us of the danger of financial revulsions and industrial derangements, that for a time destroyed the harmony of our whole system, and put our workers as effectually hors de combae , as if they bad been badly whipped by an overpower• ing enemy. We should exercise the ut most care to provide against the recurrence of similar disasters. 3he very necessities of the Government are, we trust, a suffi cient guarantee of its cordial sympathy with the interests o f its taxpayers ; and, backed by its support, every man should feel that it is a national as well as an indi vidual duty, to work with head, hands, or purse, or all, as effectively as he can. Our capacity for producing the great staples of Northern agriculture is almost il limitable. The return of the volunteers to their homes will supply the aid in harvest ing the abundant crops of this season, which is in many quarters much needed, and will enable farmers to pay such attention to gardens, fruit, and stock, as will make provisions of all kinds plenty and cheap. And yet, it is neither their interest, nbr that of the nation, that the products of agriculture should become too cheap—a re sult that can readily be prevented if manu facturing interests are not too much de pressed, and if hosts of artisan customers and consumers are not thus thrown back to subsist, as competitors, upon agricul tural labor. In the South serious delays and diffi culties will obstruct a renewal of former productiveness. The ravages of war, the destruction of a large proportion of its able bodied white population, and the havoc of devouring armies, have been succeeded by a sudden change in its whole system of labor. Society is disorganized, and time is required to put its new industrial machinery in working order. We do not doubt that, eventually, temporary evils will be reme died, and that the blessings which have at tended Free Labor everywhere else, will be vouchsafed to our Southern States. But meanwhile, our enterprising men should avail themselves of favorable chances for promoting their own interests and in creasing the natiopl wealth by becoming useful, practical agents in the great work of reconstruction. For cotton, rice, sugar, and tobacco, there is an unceasing de mand, and a certain reward awaits all who can supply our own and foreign markets with those valuable staplev. A sufficiently large portion of our people have a natural taste and genius for commerce, to render it doubtful whether much farther assistance is needed in that ddpartment of industry. Great as is our internal and domestic trade, we rarely lack agents to conduct and direct it. But, when we do, they are promptly supplied by the large number of foreign traders and merchants who emigrate _to our shores. Our manufactures are most, apt to la-n -guish and suffer from sudden political 1 changes ; but, as is natural, their depres sion almost inevitably entails great loss upon farmers and merchants—reducing the prices of the former and threatening with ,bankruptcy the latter. A reliable system of protection, that would be founded'upon such a solid and enduring basis as would inspire universal confidence, and ren.der it certain that a fair chance would be given to do all our own work on our own soil that can be well done here, would make this, in less than half a century, by far the greatest manufacturing country in the 'World, and thus ensure prosperity to all bur other interests. Much has already been done. We have passed the prelimi nary stages of skilled industry. We have' demonstrated our, power in arts as well as in arms. No nation equals us in in ventive genius, or in natural advantages for the production of all kinds of inanufac -tures of iron, steel, cotton, and wool. We have learned most of the secrets of Euro pean manufacturers, and have taught them how to make steamboats, telegraphs, reap ing machines, and lightning-presses. it requires but a very superficial view of a few of our cotton or woollen mills, machine shops, foundries, forges, and furnaces, to Baud/ the most incredulous of the wondrous skill of American artisans. All they need is a fair chance, to outstrip the boasted es tablishments of the Old World in every department. The treasures of our mines are literally inexhaustible, and we are learning to make them more productive than those of any - other country. Heaven has blessed IP with deposits of coal and iron of boundless 'dimensions, an abundance of lead and cop per, and with an area of gold and silver beating territory, in California, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Oregon, and Washington of almost fabulous extent. The development of all this vast mineral wealth will furnish in itself pro fitable employment for many millions of men for centuries to come. The great duty of the hour is TO STOICK, and to see that all our citizens have a fair opportunity to exert their strength and talents in profitable industry. We must ad dress ourselves earnestly to the task of re pairing the losses of the war and meeting Its pecuniary responsibilities. Surely, in some one of the fruitful Solis we have glanced at every earnest man cm find pro Stable employment. And When all at busy, we areraure to have the " good tiT..;" that make labor profitable and the nation powerful and prosperous. lligh Prices. A well-founded complaint is made in Peterson's Counterfeit Detector, that there has not been a fall in the price of provi sions at nit commensurate with the fall of gold. It says that when the price of gold tails, "everything else should fall with it. This, however, is not the case. Provisions are as high now as ever. Meat, for ex ample, is retailed at as high a price as when gold was quoted at 285. Beef, which rated at from eighteen to twenty cents a pound before the war, advanced to forty and fifty cents when gold was at its maximum value, and the dealers retain the same prices to-day. It is the same with almost every other article. This is nothing but a swindle, and some means should be taken to prevent it. The public are grossly im posed upon by butchers, grocers, provision dealers and others. The people have con tributed their blood and their money to purchase peace, and now that they have obtained it, they are entitled to one, at least, of the blessings it should bring—low prices of the necessaries of life." This is rather strongly put, but there is much truth in the general allegation. The advance in the price of gold, which reached such a height during the war, was caused by the almost insane desire of the public for foreign importations, which had to be paid for in cash, when we no longer had cotton and tobacco to send to Europe in exchange for goods, and to Mr. Csrase's creating a Government demand for gold, by refusing to take greenbacks in payment of customs' duties, and by, promising to pay the interest of the national debt in gold. Instead of backing up the paper currency which he created, Mr. CEIASE depreciated it, by refusing to receive it at the custom-houses, and by declining to pay it away, as the equal of hard cash, in interest to the public creditor. But, how ever that may he, one thing is certain—the prices of provisions and of ordinary ma terials for wearing apparel are needlessly high, and it is full time that they were equitably reduce& Comedy in Parisian Life One of the Paris journals relates an inci dent which, if not true, deserves to be so ; and, at any rate, reads more like a dra matic invention than the fact which it probably may be. It is said that a Paristan eentleman—who may be called M. Zeno, in the absence of his real name—received, one fine morning, a delicate, rose-scented billet-doux, informing him that if his heart was free, and ht had as much sentiment as wit, he should enter a carriage which would be in waiting for him at nine the next eve ning, close to his house. To the driver he must say " Fortune," and the reply, "Mystery," would assure him that he was right. It concluded with the observa tion that if he did not keep this appointment, it would be because there existed a more fortunate woman, who had won his affec tion. "I shall envy her," the ear writer said, " but hate neither her nor you." This epistle was signed "Gabrielle." 31 . ZERO, who is a married man, read it and smiled—gentlemen usually smile when they have assurance of having made a con. quest. He finished his breakfast, and pro ceeded to the head of the police, with whom lie had an interview. Nine o'clock on the evening arrived, and M. limo left his house, as the clock struck. Near his door stood a handsome private carriage. The driver challenged him—" Who goes there ?"-"Fortune".-"And the counter sign ?"—" 313 stery." "All right," was the word, and M. ZERO entered the vehi cle in, which a veiled lady sat. He desired Jehu to drive to the nearest "poste," or po lice station, and when he arrived there the lady was handed out by a polite police man, who transferred her, for the remain der of the night, to the custody of the per son who has charge of female prisoners. She slept soundly, was liberated next morn ing, because no one attended to make any chsrge against her ' and returned home in excellent spirits. There is a. key to the enigma; Madame ZERO was a jealous wife, who ingeniously had contrived a little plot to try her husband's fidelity, He recog nized the billet-doux as having been writ ten by her, resolved to pay her off in her own coin, had her taken up, under special arrangement with his friend of the police office, for an attempt to disturb his conju gal happiness, and thus delighted his wife, and quietly avenged himself at the same time. Buena would have turned this little incident into a charming vaudeville, and Azesxmine,n, Dumas might have spun it out into one of his eternal romances. It could have happened, if it ever did happen, scarcely anywhere but in Paris. White Millers. After our usual season of devouring wormg, wo are now having a sort of resurrection of then:. The white maths or foiiiers way be seen filing abont.by !wands where the Worms were making their ravages some two or three Weeks since. They are more active in the night than In the day.time. it is with them the season of apparent enjoyment and egg•iaying. There is no evidence that they eat anything, but rather subsist non. what Was eaten in the wom state. As these creatures have become a subjeet gete• ralit.terest to the people of this oity, it may be well icr all yersoM3 to understand their nature and habits. As soon as the millers appear they at once com mence their business for the year to ceme. They are hardly on the wing three days before they have made a deposit of eggs, which will Increase their number many-fold. These eggs ans planed by the female miller upon the under side of the small branches or twigs of, the tree, In clusters varying from fifty to one hundred. Theo can be discovered only by a ,practieed eye, and, as they resemble the balk of the tree, would hardly be noticed at all, un less one wU In search of them. These eggs are of a firm and pearblike texture, and are gined so firmly to the wood as to secure them for the winter. As soon as the spring opens, and the tender leaves be gin to appear, the worms, in size so small as hardly to be diecovered by the naked eye, will begin to ope rate. In three or four days they Can easily be seen, end in the course of two weeks will become the die- Rusting measuring worm, so annoying to every body. These insects have no social qualities; they form. no family and build no nest; but each one starts out, selects hie leaf, and lives altogether upon private acceunt. After feeding on the tree from ten to twelve days the worm Is folly developed, and wins Itself in a smell leaf, where it remains in the chresalls state from five to seven days, and then appeare In its present form. Now, It Is a question as to how the city can get rid .of this vermin. It seems certain that the trouble will Increase rather than diminish. But little, if anything, can be done to destroy the eggs, In the first place, it is very difficult to discover them, and they are so Jar out upon the small branches as to make it almoSt impossible for any one to reach the& Nor is the destruction of the miller any more hope ful. Should there, indeed, come a few days of eGn.- Willem rain about the time they begin to fly, it might diminish the number for the coming year. But should not the elements thus favor us, we can see no other method by which this nuisance may be abated than that we have already recommended. When the worms appear they can be easily shaken .tf the tree, modally early in the morning, when they are a somewhat torpid state. holt if the people will not do this, the city autho rities ehould resort either to penalties or rewards to cure the evil. We think rewards might do better. It would be a good employment for the boys to gather them up, and If the city would offer a pre mium of about twenty-five cents a quart, there would no doubt be a large number of boys raady to oneertelee the business. If the worms are all des troyed there will be no millers; if no millers, then no agile ; and rat eggs, of course, no worms for the coming year. It le to ee hoped that this subject wiitreceive some attention, for it is tot only the an noyance that we suffer from the insect, but the evil that must remit In gradually destroying all those trees which are attacked by them, and which are both an ornament and a luxury to the city.

THE CAMPAIGN FROM ATLANTA TO SAVANNAH. Gen. Sherman's Official Report'. The tillolal report of General Sherman's oam paign from Atlanta to Savannah has been pub lished. It is a lung doomovnt, and as the pith of the whole has already appeared In The Frees, Ire only present the conclusions of General Sherman, wulOh are as follows •` Our former labors In North Georgia had demon" Mateo the truth that no large army, carrying with It the necessary stores and baggage, can overtake and capture an Inferior force or the enemy In as Own country. Therefore, no alternative was 163 Inc but the one I adopted, namely, to divide my forces, and with one part act offensively against the enemy's lesources, walls with tne other 1 should act defensively, and invite the enemy to attack, risking tbe char ces of battle. In this conclusion I have ueen singularly saatniund by the results. Gen. Rood, who, as I have heretofore denormed, has moved to the westward near Tuatumbta, with a view to decoy me away from Georgia, finding hidi• self mistaken, was forced tOMIOoBO, either to parent use or to sot offensively against the other part left In Tennessee. lie adopted the latter course ; and Gen. Thomas has wisely and well fulfilled his part In the grand scheme in drawing ROW well up tom Tennessee until he could concentrate all his own troops and then turn upon Rood, as he has dune, and destroy- or fatally cripple his army. Tnet part of my army is so far removed from me that I leave, with perfect annfidenoe, its management and history to Gen. Thomas. "I was thereby left with a well-appointed army to sever the enemy's only remaining railroad comma nicattens eastward and westward, for over one hun dred 'n'lee, namely, the Georgia State Railroad., which is broken up from Falrburn station to Medi sou and the Oconee, and the central Railroad from Gordon clear to Savannah, with numerous breaks on the latter road from Gordon to Eatonton, and from Millen to Augusta, and the Savannah and Gulf Railroad. We have also consumed the corn and lvdde , r Sr. the region of country thirty miles on either side of a line from Atlanta to - Savannah, as also the sweet potatoes, cattle, hogs, sheep and poul try, and have carried away more than 10,000 Dense and mules, as well as a countless number of their elms. / estimate the damage done to the State of Georgia and its military resources at $100,000,00 ; at least 020.040.04 of which has inured to our ad vantage, and the remainder is simple waste and de struction. This may seem a hard species of warfare, but it brings the sad realities of-war home to those who have been directly or indirectly instrumental in Involving us in its attendant catenation. This campaign has also placed this branch of my army in a position from which other great military restate may be attempted, beside leaving in Tea !Mtn° and Worth Ale barna a force which Is amply enincieut to meet all the o'hanCell Of War in that re gion of our country. F. In the hedy of my army I feel a jest pride. Generals Reward and Slocum are gentlemen of fdl7o.ller capacity and intelligence, thorough sol diers and patriots, working day and night, not fur themselves, but for their country and their men. General Kilpatrick, who commanded the cavalry of this army, bee handled it with spirit and dash to my entire satisfaction, and kept a superior force ef the enemy's cavalry from even approaching our infantry columns or wagon-teeing, RA report Ii full and graphic. All the division and brigade nom mancerS nierit my personal and outlet thanks, and I shall spare efforts to secure them commissions equai to the rank they have exercised so Well. As to too rank and Me. they seem so full of oolifidetnie in themselves that I doubt if they want a compli ment from me; but I must do them the justice to say that whether Called on to fight, to march, to wade streams, to make roads, elearout °Dalmatians, build Cringes, make' corduroy,' or tear up railroads. they Wile done It with alacrity: and a degree of oheerfultess unsurpassed. A little loose in foraging - , they' did some things they ought not to have done,' yet on the whole they have supplied thewants of the army with as little violence as Could be expected, and as little loss as I calculated. Satre of these foraging parties bad encounters with the enemy which would in ordinary times rank as respectable battles. The behavior of our troops in Savannah has been so manly, so quiet, so perfect, that I take it as the own evidence or discipline and tree courage. Never was a hostile. city, ailed with women and children, occupied by a large army with less dis order, or more system, order, and good government. The same general and generous spirit of confidence and good feeling pervades the army which it has ever afforded me especial pleasure to report on former occasions), TERRIBLE RIOT. Outbreak at the -Firemen's Tournament in Flushing, New York. STONES, PISTOLS, AND BOWIE-KNIVES THE WEAPONS USED. SIXTY PERSONS WOUNDED According to previous announcement the Seireral fire companies of Queens county met on Tumidity last at Flushing, L. 1., to compete fer three hand some silver trumpets, which were to be awarded those engines throwing the three highest streams of water. At an early hour in the morning the dela gallons from the Fire Department° of New York and Brooklyn began to arrive, and the usual quiet of the place was interrupted by the stirring sounds of music and the cheers of the Flushing firemen as they marched to the avenues in the outskirts to receive their brethren from the adjoining towns. At two o'clock the procession paraded turough the principal streets, receiving the plaudits of the thou sands who had anembled from all parts of tke Coun ty to witness the tournament. Thejudges adjourned to the Flushing Hotel, at three o'clock, and pro. oeeded to draw for the right of first trial, when the companies were drawn in the following order : Young America. No. 2, of Flashing. Neptune, No. 2, of Jamaica. Protection, No. 2, of Astoria. Enterprise, No. 1, of College Point. The judges having taken their places in the On• pole of the hotel, No. 2 Engine, of Flushing, came into position at the liberty pole, one hundred and sixty-three feet in height, and at precisely hall-past three the signal was given to man the brakes. The t, boys" went bravely to work, when, after Mooed leg in throwing a stream one hundred and forty. eight feet high, their engine was disabled from fur ther duty, and they were forced to retire from the field. The . 4 Twos , "therefore, gracefully gave np their position to the Neptune Engine, of Jamaica. This company has long claimed the palm, and after a few minutes of preparation the Jamaica men ap plied themselves to their task, and in ten minutes forced a stream of the liberty nap surmounting the pole—a distance of one hundred and seventy-nine feet. In the mean time an engineer from the East ern district had offered a bet to a member of the Astoria Company, and In settling its terms, they quarreled over them. Blows were Interchanged, then partisans took up the quarrel, and in a few minutes the light became rsbneral, and almost lin usillately after shots were interchanged. As soon as the report of firearms was heard, the business men of the town closed their stores, and In a Jew minutes afterward the wildest disorder pre vailed. The reports of pistols, the °lashings of bowie.kniver, the screams and curses of the combat ants, the terrtned shrieking of women and children among whom fell showers of stones, rendered the scene one of intetbse horror. The hoose.tope were crowded with men, while the women and children sought refuge in cellars. This state of things lasted for some two hours, when the rain commended to fall in torrents, and seemed to cool the passions of the infuriated rioters, and they gradually quieted down and collected their wounded and disabled friends. . . . It is impossible to state the number of those in. jured, but It is estimated at fifty or sixty. El lady, whose name was not ascertained, received a bullet wound in the breast ; several citizens and children were wounded by stray shots, but the fighters them. mires suffered the most severe injuries. The wound ed brought to W Illiamsburg include : Pat. McGinnis Mtearty. Mate wound in neck; Ed. MEMO, badly injured about the head ; (Marisa Yen Dyke, visitor, badly; F. Kelly, head bruised. The scene of the fight presented evidences of a terrific conflict ; bricks and stones, knives and broken plstola lying around in profusion. THE TITHE.

The low-priced stocks are not Inquired for, and holders show great anxiety to get rid of them, and are only prevented from doing so by the great coneeSelone to which they would be obliged to submit In order to effect sales. Government loans continued very inactive, the sales being con fined to the five twenties, which, however, sold at a slight advance. It Is the general opinion that Gov ernmentS would advance, remarks the Pittsburg Cownarcial, Were It not for the eantinued drain upon bank deposits, which prevents further invest ments, and Often compels the banks to put these securities on the market. We may look for thls drain to continue, unless there should arrive a European demand for our Government bonds, as the balance of trade is now decidedly against us, as Is shown by the shipments of coin by ovary steamer. A great portion Of trils balance &lUDS from the large amewitS carried abroad by our people in their foreign tours. It is estimated that it will probaely require at least from 00,000,000 to 000,000,000 in coin to defray the expenses of our tourists and the Americans temporarily resident abroad during the present year. One of our exchanges condemns this expenditure, and compares it to the "absenteeism" which impoverished Ireland, and ezaggeate that we have now ample field In our own country for tourists to spend their money, bat foreign travel and resi dence abroad is now the fashion, aad, like other suits, must run its course and be cured in the natu ral way.
