Proteootin vs. Free Trade. Benjamin Bauman, Esq., editor of the Miner's Journal, published atPottsville, Pa., has issued a pamphlet bearing the above title, a copy of which is before us, and frOm which we make the following extract, which presents facts wor thy of the attention of every workingman :—• "The tendency of high , tariffs and wj►rs is to produce high pricer and inflated values, which excite the fears of those who . are more prudent than wise. Those who fear a fall should never attempt to rise ; and those who dread high prices should be always condemned to small profits, cheap labor and its results, We never can enjoy "good times" except by high prices and protection to labor : the road to wealth, property, and power is through the busy marts of a well-paid Industry ; while the road to crash, crisis and ruin is down the rug ged paths of cheap labor and low prices. Protection necessarily brings high prices at first. Our manufactures have always been in a crippled condition, our factories idle, our exports' scattered, capital diverted, prior to every pro tective tariff or "protective war:' consequently it required the Inducement of high prices to start the ruined furnaces and mills, open the mines afresh, and bring back the labot. But prosperity follows high prices, and the demand for the, jltoducts of labor increases. Want of competition then keeps up these prices ; but, as the doinestic manufacturer is the great pur• chaser of our agricultural productions, the de mand for these increases in the same ratio, and the values, though high, become equal. Domestic competition would in a reasonable time bring all values to a fair standard. This is natural ; example proves it; and that such is the result let our cotton manufacturers, who are now able to undersell even England, testify. Protection never briogs on the crash, crisis, and ruin which the over-prudentand timid fear. These grand and fr;:quent climacterics in our history always follow free trade. Would n no have suffered the crisis of '57 if the tariff of '-12 had not been repealed for free trade? Would we be in danger of repudiation now if the duties on imported goods had been increased in pro portion to the direct tax? It is not, therefore, high tariffs or high prices that we have to fear, but the sudden opening of the flood-gates of free trade, which overwhelms our domestic industry, and drags down prices and values with a quick and ruinous energy at the moment when our labor is high. The timid capitalist, the prudent merchant, the enterprising manufacturer, nud, in fact, the whole domestic industry of the nation, have more. reason to fear the blunders and folly of our statesman than the effect of high prices.— Sudden changes in value from the high prices of protection to the low prices of tree trade should most ho dreaded by all. But why should these ruinous changes be made, when histay,example, reason, and all our best interests admonish us not to make them ? Political economy teaches us that such steps are from prosperity to adversity, and thatour law givers nmst descend from the sublime to the ri diculous to accomplish the fall. It is a greater sin to be a fool than a knave, if wilful ignorance bears the blame. If we vote for pot-house poll ; icians with more "brass" than brains, and elect the mere demagogne to Congress who is incapa ble of making a living in business pursuits, and who is not practical enough to understand the laws of trade, can we expect him to display the wisdom of Solomon or the sagacity of Ulysses? We are a self-governed people, and responsi ble fir our actions. If we make lawmakers of our fools and babblers, sending them to Wa4lll - and keep our business -men at home, we must expect to suffer for our ignorance and want of discernment. The emigrant who comes to this country does it with the intention of bettering his condition, —to save himself and family from the cheap la. bor and dependence of Europe, and to obtain the benefits of free labor and independence in America. Yet how many of them, charme• with the name of Democracy and Its policy o free trod, chap gowie. and Stales' Right&, are cheated by a sham, and made dupes by their ig- norance! It seems to us the workingman of America, be lie native or foreign, should have tact enough to comprehend how free trade must necessarily deprive him of all the benefits to be derived froth free labor, the profits of labor, and the su erior resources of this country. The questions which the working-man should solve are these : 'Shall I vote for freo competition 'with the cheap labor and labor-saving machinery of Eu rope, and necessarily bring down the standard of my wages to the, starvation prices of the Old World, by allowing them to sell their goods in my markets in open competition with my own? I sell my labor to make iron ; and if the pro ducts of my labor sell cheap, I must necessari ly work cheap. The English manufacturer can convey his iron from England to NOw York as cheap as ours can be sent to the same point or to market generally. Ha has more capital than my employers have, and more machinery, and can get as many hands us ho yenta at fifty •cents a day.
