actually calls for. If they have such ad
vantagitrfor producing any article as makes
competition with them actually. impossible,
they are ready to reduce or ain)lisli duties .
thereon; just as they are ready to admit the.
free import of. breisdattiffitin case of. famine,
or whenever,by force of other considerations,
the protection of agriculture has ceased .to
heimperative. On all , other articles, their
tariffs , are as stringent ta: at sny former
period. .. • • . •
Among these nations, at the present time,
stand conspicuous England and France.
Boasting ofliberality, thesystem they actual
ly enforce against each other and against all
other nations, is as essentially protective as
any system ever existing either in those na
tions or elsewhere. The pretense of Free .
Trade they make, is a transparent sham.
In like manner; 'there 'are hi the- trzilted
States thinkers who espouse Free Traders
in accgdance both with the Inculcations of
philosophy and the results of experience.
Theirphilosophyls =sound and deceptive,
and ifthey have exPeriencem the line of their
professions, they have none to show—only
the mostbarbarousnatioimising Free Trade,
imdif their. barbarism did not result there
frOM, dief Can; Never he lifted ont.of it ,tuk
til they establish the protective policy.
So, a political party exists In this country,
Which nominally adheres to Free 'Trade;
but has never . yet essayed to' -abrogate the
custom-house system. It uses the word
Free - Trade with wonderfill dexterity in or=
der.to deceive people. who do not diserhni
rialto closely, but carefully avoids all efforts
to carry the theory that word expresses into
effect.. So long as it held possession of the
I government it maintained impost duties and
exercised as wide a,range.ofdiserirolnations;
protecting fully every interest it had a mind
to, and they were many, and slighting such
interests as it had little or nothing to hope
from, or had grudges against.
This speciee of jugglery is not without
certain forms of profit. It yields , some of
the advantages of avowed and consistent es
pousal of Protection, and, at' the same
time, enables those who resort to ik to , reap
many of the fruits of genuine Free Trade.
To be more cx.phcit-this sort of game ena

'would not stay with theni but forPrictical

• Standing brake doctrine and practice of
Protection, not equivocally or under false
imeteniei, iikat we soli' of those who profess
advrocate Free Tiede, is that they they
discaid dissimulation and' match liquatai
toward titat which Free Trade necessarily
- tet "the
abrogation of all cnstoms.end duties, with
the whole train of offices and plowmen es
sential ta system ofievenne, and.the
addition to the literwil levies of sums
sufficient to • meet the deficiency. That
would be Free Trade, • . and nothing short of
it is.' EverYineasure this slde ofthat which
proposes to be Free Trade, is a fraud and a
snare.
AsProtectionists we insist that, in a 11.4
Judi:Jews of tbditienue laws--vihether ei
teni' or internal--Congress shall adopt un•
hesitatingly . mph_ discriminaiiPlis, as wijl
foster domestic inthiAty, 'l4iversify em
ploytnents as widely as possible, and thus
enrich the nation. We held, t his duty to be
, .
subordinate - only to the rePelling_of foreign
invasion and the securing of domestic tran
quility. For no other ends ought this ob
ject to be postponed. Hence, the senior ed
itor decidedly dissents from an article which
recently appetired in these columns, in his
absence from his post, justifying the post
ponement of a revision of the revenue laws
until the next session. The proller Commit
tees have had abundant time to settle all
necessary details; and in this particular,
their labor has been fUcilitated by the delay
of general business occasioned by the Im
peachment proceedings. '
In expressing ourselves thus strongly on
this point, we do not want to be understood
as being ready to concede any grade of
Protection persons engaged in any -particu
lar pursuit may suggest or dernand: Far
1
enough from it. Men in each callirg ought
to be heard, and their sentiments impartially
weighed; but it belongs inherently and ab
solutely to Congress to determine, and upon
a large view of matters, what thu amount of
the impost shill be in each case. In all ex
cise levies the producers of any article wish
to have the dnty fixed as - low as 'possible;
and not unfrequentiy through a false con
ception of what their welfare actually re
quires. In like manner, men engaged' In
any,branch of manufactures seek to crowd
the impost *duties upon the
_highest possible
point, often to their own detriment Upon
Congress; evolves the duty of looking upon
both sides, of weighing all the considera
tions, and striking the balance in accord
ance with its matured judgment. _
The proper action Cif' Congress in this
regard is impeded by reason of the fact that
80 many of its members are lawyers'and so
few men familiar with practical affairs.
Lawyers are needed in both _ Houses, and
there is no lack in that direction. The de
ficiency consists in haYing so few . member s
who are familiar with the details of com

business Callings.
THE GREENBACK DEMOCRACY.
The Clinks Democracy submit to the pub..
lie'the latest authorized statement of their
platform as follows: .
_Universal suffrage is a recognized Demo
„erotic principle, the application of, which is
to be 101-, under the Constitution of the
United Stites to the States themselves.
Universal amnesty and complete removal of
all disabilities, on account 'clpatioil

necessary to a benefidal administration of
the goveniment in the States recently in

and to a full,_ satisfactorY re.catablishment
of the practical relations of those States
with die other :15tates of the American
Union. No military government ] over any
State in the Unio n
,in time of peace is com
patible with the principles of civil liberty
cstablish - ed by the Constitution, ner can the
trial of private citizens by military com
missions betolerated by a people -jealous of
their freedom and desiring to be free.
Taxes should be reduced as far, as practi
cable, collected impartially. and with-strict
economy, and so apportioned as to bear on
wealth rather than upon labor, and while
all national obligations should be honestly
and exactly fulfilled,-. no, special privilege
should be allowed to any class of Individ
uals or W. corporations,
'lt appeara that the platform of this origi
nal Abolitionist, which was at first entirely
too bittef for the Democratic palate, is now
sweetened up to suit the taste. _Universal

FACTS FOR 'THE DEMOCRACY.
The New York World re-asserts,• in the
most emphatic and positive manner, its
opinion that negro suffrage at the South is a
fact which cannot be denied nor lawfully re
sisted. As such, the World has treated it,
and, in connection with the possible nomi
nation of Hr. Cuitsz upon a platform in
which it should constitute a conapicuons
feature, has submitted the matter to its Dem-
ocratic readers. That journal admits that its
party have "promptly and vehemently re
jected" the idea that negro suffrage is to be
considered as a fixed, established institution,
but, proceeds as follows : _
We believe in and stand by every word
we uttered on the subject. If the Conven
tion does not indorse it, time and experience
will. Democrats are quite pardonable for
the soreness and indignation they feel on
this subject. But will indignation at a bru
tal murder restore the victim to life? Facts
are none the less facts because we detest and
abhor the means by which they became so.
We do not wish to abate the just indigna
tion of the party, ifut to prevent its anger
from clouding the intellect.
Can negro suffrage be mprooted within
the next four years f Most assuredly not,
unless the Democratic party carries the Pres
idential election. This is so evident that
we suppose we need not argue it, although
inpositions have been disputed which are as
contestible as this. Will an avowed in
tention to uproot it assist us to gain over
fromthe Republican party the votes we need
to gain in order to elect the President?
That depends ahogether upon the possibil
ity of our making the change at once and
giving the country repose alter eight years
of conflict and turbulence. his demonstra
ble that; instead of making it at once, we
cannot make it at all within the four yeah+.
The Senate; now four fifths Republican,
is.to.he increased by, twenty_new Republi
can Senators. It is cerUkin.,,therefefe, that
that body will be Republican = throughout
the whole of the next Presidential term s ,
and that no law can be either repealed or
passed except by Republican consent. It is
absolutely certain that no relief, can.,come
from Congress the- ensuing- four
yean. • _
• From whatiource then•cm: it be expect,:
ed?, Not from the Supreme Court, although
there is good reason for supposing that that
tribunal regards the Reconstruction acts as
unconstitutional.. ~These acts will expire
by their- own limitation before the'vlintireme
Court sits again, and -the competency of the
resulting State -governments Is a question
of which - it - has no 'jurisdiction. -It was de
cided by the Supreme Court, in- the Doti
case, that it belongs to Congress to decide
upon the validity of a State government;
that, the decision of Congress is made by
the Omission of Senators and Representa
tives; and that the Courts are bound to fol
low it. It is thus, proved, by reasoning
which is as conclusive as mathematical de
monstration, that no relief can crime' from
the Supreme Court. This conclusion is as
distasteful to us as it can be to any object
.
or; but indignation is not logic, and the ar
gument does n \ pt Admit of:refutatipn..
Bin& negro suffrage can be hpilet during
the nest Presidential term neither by Con.
gress nor the Supreme Court, by what
agency is it to be overturned ? Not
surely by the negroes, or by the goyerns
meats in which they are voters. if done
at,all it will be done by the - white citizens
erthe South actindontside the new State
governments. But what shall prevent the
new government trying them for treason
against the State, as Rhode Island tried and
sentenced Dora..? Or who can doubt that
they - would do it ? It is too 'evident that
the negroes can be ousted from the suffrage
only by a successful, insurrection of the
white citizens against he new State govern
ments; and the [World has too deep a sense
of responsibilityend too clear a foresight of
consequences, to advise the Convention to
recommend t his methbd of redress. The
effect of such a recommendation would be
to-repel Republicans. who are on 449,g:round
ready to join us, - and whose • aid must
have if we are , to elect a President. If any
of our Democratic contemporaries think
the party already- as z biro as tlieyi `wlsiilt,
we do not share their,sentimente. -
Does any sane man, of !whatever political
party, suppose that the Now Tot* Conven

the Fetid has put with sticky ainries.s • and

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.
A. correspondent of the American 'Church
man, writing from Boston, refers erTecially ,
to the late movement of the Massachusetts .
Diocese Convention in regard to' the Evan
gelists. This class of-men he writes, are to
go at large up and down 'the land, doing a
work which it is pretended will be a sort of
compromise.between the ranting "revival
ists" of the sects and, the Jesuits or Paulists
of the Catholic Church. This writer seems
to be very much disturbed by , this
progressive step, and thinks its promoters
have not 'stopped to inquire whether it is a
legitimate church movement. He thinks
the orgonization la an utterly new thing
within !improver/lid eoneerratiee cotnmun

Fears are expressed by this movement. A

some. The selection of Evangelists to do

is a matter of record that since the last , an

it desirable that Christian Aisociations should
undertake it ? 2.; Under what regulations
should it be undertaken , ? - .3. What should'.

receive attention from all the leading de
nominations ere long.
