TILE NEW HAMPSHIRE ELECTION
The result of the New Hampshire election is
complete surprise to both political parties.
The Republicans had counted upon a smell
majority upon the State ticket and upon the
election of at least two of the three Members of
Congress, and the Democrats had conceded the
success of their oppOnents. The canvasses
which have preceded the annual elections in
New Hampshire for the past ten years have
been proverbial for their minuteness and accu
racy, and the figures of both the Republican
and DemocratiC State Central Committees
showed a Republican majority of between one
and two thousand on the popular vote. For
once, however, these figures have proved un
reliable, and both parties are surprised and
astounded by the result—the Republicans at
theirdefeat and the Democrats at their victory.
And Fell they may be, for from 1830 tee 1871
there was an unbroken line of Republican vic
tories at State and National elections, and there
was apparently no reason to anticipate a rever
ml of the usual verdict of the. New Hampshire
yeomanry this year. Of seventeen State and
National elections carried by the Repulelicans
the smallest majority Was 1453 and the largest
was 11,638, and the Democrats considered their
defeat last year as a decisive one. They had
made every possible exertion to carry the State,
and they were aided in their efforts by various .
local causes of dissatisfaction which were re
moved this year, and the Republicans entered
upon the last campaign with better prospects of
victory than they had in 1870. Bed the will
of the people," as expressed et-the polls, is not
always to lie relied upon in advance, and the
election returns tell a very different story from
the figures collated by the canvassers. The
victory which the Democrats have. won has
been by a very close vote, and js indeed rathe'r
accidental than otherwise. But it is a victory
nevertheless, and the election of a Democratic
Governor or Congressman by a single vote has
the same general effect as though he had ten
thousand majority. It is useless, therefore, to
endeavor to belittle the victory which the. Dem
ocntts of New Hampshire gained at 111 e ele'ction
on Tuesday, but it will lee profitable tee consider
the causes which caused the &filet of the Re
publicansond to estimate the probable effect of
this result upon the future elections in New
Hampshire and elsewhere.
No so complete a reversal of the usual popu-•
leer verdict in New liampshilc could have been
brought about by II single eause, but it must
rather be attributed tee a variety of causesone one
of which would have swept away the. Republi
can majority oflast year but all together combin
ing to produce the result which has taken place.
Se many consecutive victories leave caused
many of the Republicans to feel that their in
dividual votes could be dispensed with, and
so when election day canto they quietly staid
at home and supposed that the candidates of
their "choice would be elected without their
assistance. There es gettileg to be too much
of this personal indifference, this trusting that
other men will be more faithful . and earnest
than a person 'Oneself cares to lee, in the lie.
publican party, and we hope that the repeated
warnings winch have been given doling the
last few months of the value of singleeetes
considered in their aggregate relations will
not be lost. Republican apathy and
indifference are responsible fur several. of
the Democratic Congressmen front Pennsylva
nia, and the sooner the Republicans make it
a cardinal principle of their political faith to
get out "the last man" at every election Unit
takes place the better it will be for them. It
ought not to be considered a very great hard
ship to go to the' polls once.a year and deposit
a vote, and if the New Hampshire Republicans
,
haVe elected their candidates for State officers
and Congressmen without any trouble. Aside
from the indifference engendered hey a long
succession of victories, et is unquestionably
trite that the situation of matters at Washing
ton has had its effect in producing this radical
change in New Hampshire, and we trust that
those gentlemen at Washington, whatever
their position, who are inclined tee make aelvo•
cccy of the annexation of St. Domingo the
test of Republican orthodoxy will be convinced
of the imprelicy of their position by the returns
from New Hampshire. The old platform of
the Republican party, the one with wide"' it
has secured three successive glorious national
victories, is not yet obsolete, and It is not wise
to ignore the policy which has successfully
directed flee party in the past and force upon
it a new issue, and one too on which there is
no unanimity of opinion. In plain words,
it is not timely nor wise to Make the annexa.

question of the clay, and We say here, what we
have sald before, that the removal of Sumner

mistake. It is too late now to undo the mis

but it is not too late for the persons who coin
mitted that mistake to take warning for the

from thee Republican defeat in New Ilampsleite
than could possibly have been gained from
the success office Republican candidates, and
eve hope that the lessons of this tempter:oy

AT a recent ineeting held at Madrid, Spain.
r the purpose of forwarding measures for
to abolition of shivery in the Spanish colonies,
en. Daniel E. Sickles, United States Minis
r to Spain, was present as a spectator and
as invited to deliver an address. A Madrid
tier has the following paragraph in relation
his response : " I came here as a soldier—
American soldier, with my family, to tes.
y my interest in the object or this meeting,
.mely, the sacred cause of negro emancipa•
tn. I know not your language well enough
express myself elegantly, perhaps not with
.priety ; but to that sacred cause I have
en my body and my blood—and 2.0 w there
nothing left to me but a y crutches. (hold
them up a midst terrific applause.) These:,
should necessity ever again require it, are
he disposition of the slave owners." There
uld not seem to be anything very bad in
so remarks, and we should be glad to have
our iiational representatives at foreign
its give utterance to as brave and . hopeful
Ms as did Gen. Sickles on this occasion.
New York World, however, completely
a its temper , over Gen. Sickels' little
eh, and endeavors to
. iveaken its effect by
ng a review . of his past life. There arc
. o very vulnerable points in Gen. Sickles'
al and personal record, but it is unjust
unutanly to bring those things up to Lis
redlt at this late day. Gen. Sickles fought
ely and gallantly during the war, and
if the truth were told, is the head and
t of his offence against the World and
t whom It represents. Had he fought for
on instead of loyalty, the World . would
be persistently harping about that

has but little effect.

SOUTHERN LAWLESSNESS.
The Republican members of the United
States Senate have resolved to prolong the
session of Congress until some measure has
been adopted for the protection of loyal mon
at the South, and the wisdom of this decision
will be generally Indorsed by the loyal people
of the country. Precisely what this measure
will be has not yet been decided upon, but
there is no difference of opinion among the
Republican Members of Congress as to the
desirability and necessity for some measure
which shall secure the protection of the loyal
people of the Southern' States from the out
rages which have become so common in that
section. The report subMitted to the Senate
last week by the Special Committee appointed
to investigate the condition of affairs at the
South lies completely demolished the Demo-
erotic theories that the reported outrages a
the south were fabrications designed to pro
duce political effect, and even the Southern
Democratic journals are loudly calling for
sure and swift vengeance upon the murder-
ous diu Klux. The Louisville Courier Journal
is particularly outspoken In its denunciations
of the Ku Klux, and says that whether they
be Radicals in disguise, as has been claimed
by some, or whatever they may be in politics,
they are certainly villains of the worst stamp
and deserve a corresponding punishmen
The Courier journal is right in its estimate t
these fellows, and it Is high time that the bet
ter classes of people nt the South, without re
gard to their politics, should combine to froWn
down and suppress this organization which
has so long been the terror of the loyal people
of that part of the country. The Special Sen
ate Committee which was appointed to inves
tigate this matter made a full and careful ex
amination of witnessess, selecting them from
both political parties, and the main points of
the reriort submitted by Senator Scott of this
State, the Chairman of the Committee, were :
that time Ku Klux organization has an exis
tence ; that it seeks to carry out its purposes
by murder, violence and intimidation ; that it
binds its members by secret oaths to carry out
its decrees of crime ; that it protects them
from punishment by the civil laws, aud that
not a single one of the whole number of of
fenders In North Carolina lets been convicted
of violation of the laws. These points form a
strong Lill of indictment against the Ku Klux,
and when a calm and thorough in
vestigation has revealed these facts it
is certainly time that some action should be
taken which will prove effective in accomplish
ing the desired purpose. It would not seem
that such a question as this, the protection of
loyal citizens of the United States front the
1 grossest outrages and from death, ought to be
considered ns a political matter, for all parties
1 should have a common interest in the execu
i lion of the laws of the land and the protection
of the lives of citizens. It is stated, however,
in a Washington dispatch that the Democrats
in ,Congress have determined to oppose any
and every measure which any be proposed
for the suppression and punishment of the
I • Kit Klux Klan, and the Congressional pro
ceedings of the next few days will show
whether this report is correct or not. It is
fortturtte circumstance that the Democrats
are in a minority in both Houses of Congress,
I and although the Democratic Senators and
j Representatives may be a unit in their oppo
sition to hating the property and lives of the
loyal citizens of the South protected they will
not he title to carry their point. They may
be aide to delay legislation in this respect. but
they cannot prevent it; and if, they array
themselves upon the Ku Klux side of this
question they will not only go contrary to
1 the general sentiment of the loyal people of
- , tae North, but they will directly oppose the
1 wishes and purposes of the better portion of
1 the Southern Conservatives.
SENATOR SCIIIN ER
'the removal of Senator Sumner front the ,
( i.ilifiri r c l ßill i lli tt tliMfitniC .'- rle " int . d held the
place for twelve years, and was admirably
qualified for it by the habits of his mind and
by the results of study and travel. There is
probably no doubt that his removal was made
on account of personal reasons, and that one
of the leading causes was his opposition to the •
annexation of St. Domingo. It has been
stated that Sir Edward Thornton, the 'British
Minister at Washington, demanded Mr. Sum
ner's removal from the Foreign Committeemnd
that the removal was made in compliance with
this demand: This statement has since been
denied, and we hope that the denial is true,
for there is no propriety in the British .Minis
ter dictating es to the composition of our Sen•
ate Committees. Mr. Sumner is a strong man,
and his removal from the Chairmanship ofhe
FMeign Committee has in no way lesse led
his strength or weakened his slam : Ling be 'ore
the country. Indeed,he stancls stronger with
the people than he did before the removal
was made, and if those who desired and caused
ilk removal hoped to in any way lessen his
' prominence by the removal, they have coin
'
opted a grievous mistake. Mr. Sumner has
rendered invaluable services to the Republican'.
party in the United States, and that party is
not disposed to hirget or ignore those services.
Ile has been a thoroughly honest and faithful
Senator throughout his twenty years of public
life, and his bitterest political opponents have
never been abb.' to say anything worse of him
than that lie was unflinchingly devoted to the
cause of equal rights for all classes of loyal
citizens. This has been the central and lead
ing feature of his public life, and his official
reputation has never been stained with even
1 the breath of any charge of improper or dis
honest action. lle is sometimes unpleasantly
persistent in the advocacy of his own opinions,
and he sometimes seems to think that those
who differ with him are less honest in their
position than he is in his. In the St. Domin
i go annexation matter, for instance, he has .
taken the strongest ground in opposition, but
we think that the sentiment of the country
has more fully sustained his view of the ques
tion than the opposite. But for his position
on this question he would undoubtedly have
been continued in tine place which he had so
long and so ably filled, and we have no hesita
tion in saying that, If his removal seas intended
as it punishment or a rebuke to his opposition
to the annexation of St. Domiego, it was a
great political thistalmoind one which is likely
sometime to seriously trouble those who were
most active in bringing it about.
At,lllNteroN dispatches state that subscrip
tions to the new Qovernment loan are being
made quite as rapidly as was expected, and
that the indications are very favorable for its
successful , reception. In response to an in
quiry made of Secretary lioutw•ell whether
banks may substitute their six per cents. fur
the ❑etc five per cent. bonds, without the risk
of hereafter being required to put in for a
portion thereof of four and a half per cents.,
it is stated by the t*.;ecretary that such ection
on the part of the banks, so far ns he is con
cerned, will not render them liable to have
any change made in the manner of the sub
seeiptions,'but that they should remain limbs
torbed until the'end of the ten years required
for the maturing of the 'new bonds.

TTIE LT TtIGII REGISTER, ALLENTOWN, WEDNESDAY. MARCH 2
GOV. GPARV UPON TINE COAL
TROUBLES.
Harrisburg is pretty well filled with repro
sentatlyes of the three parties who arc ammo- (
; diately interested In the present coal troubles
—the carrying companies, the operators and
the miners. A legislative committee has been
appointed to investigate the whole question,
and that committee is, now engaged in taking
testimony. The two points which are being
specially investigated are these : have the
railroad companies gone beyond the law in
their recent action in advancing the rates of
toll, and, if they have kept within the law,
have they used their powers to do injustice
to the public? This covers the whole ques
tion, so far as the recent action of the railroad
companies is concerned, and the investigation
Is one of great interest and importance, not
only as relates to the present but also to the fu
ture of the coal trade. If the railroad compa
nies have the right to advance their tolls to a
prohibitoryfpoint whenever they please, it can
readily be seen that they have a great and
possibly dangerous power placed in their
hands, for the whole anthracite coal trade of
the .tote could at any time be stopped by the
concerted action of three or four railroad pres
idents. Possibly it may be no worse to have
the coal trade in their hands than to have it to
depend upon the mandates of the managers of
the NVorkingenen's Benevolent Association,
but it is not for the best interests oh' the public
to be at the complete mercy of the one or the
other...
A Harrisburg correspondent, of the New
York Tribune sends to that journal a detailed
statement of Gov. Geary's views upon this
question, and as the question is the all absorb.
ing topic of conversation and thought in this
section of the State we give the report of the
Governor's views, which represent him ns
using the following language : "It is a t Han
gular duel, each against the other, and no two
avowing a grievance in common. In 1869 1
spent weeks at the mines, examining the whole
subject. I then saw that the miners and ope
rators, at a certain period of the year, found
it beneficial to "strike," and when carefully
arranged; the consumer only was the sufferer.
As, for instance, In '6B, the operators, when
the market was stocked, quietly stored away
their surplus tuns at the general market, end
when the proper time' came ordered the mi
ners to strike and, to afford a pretext, an
nounced a scale of prices so low that they
were obliged to strike or starve. Straight
way coal shot up in prices in New York—and
the operators pocketed over $5.000,000 and
$250.000 was divided among the miners. I
know beyond the shadow of a doubt, where
the mischief arises. The collusion of the ml
ners'and operators in 1868 exasperated the
railway men, and they agreed among them
to put an end at once and forever to the
vicious system of plundering, known as sus
pensions. So when the new war was sprung
upon the public, the railway men put the
screws upon the operators' cabal, and hence
the present imbroglio. Our mines produce
25,000,000 tone n year ; under no circumstan•
ces is there a demand for more than 15,000,000
tuns. The problem then with the coal loon
is, to dispose of the superfluous quantity at a
profit. The strike system was good for them
so far as it went, but now it is brought up
roundly, and we have to readjust matters so
that all parties shall have satisfaction or jus
tice. I cannot cut the present knot by execu
tive action. All the men involved have so far
kept ivithin the bounds of the law, and I ant
powerless in framing special laws for the ad
justment of these difficulties. I have sug
gested measures that will compel the compa
nies to reduce their unreasonable tolls, but
\Vail the Legislative Committee now in ses•
sion, lies the . duty of curbing the prime mov•
ers in these injurious schemes against the peo
ple."
Whatever the causes of the present dead
lock may have been, the evil effects of it are
every day becoming more and more apparent,
effective remedy should be devised, Tlic dif
ferent parties are so widely apart and codeter
mined each to carry their points that the only
chance for a settlement is in the complete vic
tory of one party over the others or in a com
promise. and it seems to us that the latter is
more probable and that its effects would really
be better. Why not resort to the system of
arbitration which Las been so successfully and
satisfactorily used in the manufacturing and
mining districts in England ?
THE ST. DOOM INGO 411A:slaw;
Senator Sumner has not been prevented
from exhibiting his opposition to the annexa
tion or St Domingo by his removal from the
Senate Committee en Foreign A Ilhirs,and the
probability is that he will be quite as active in
his opposition as he would have been hid he
remained upon t h at Committee. On Tuesday
he presented to the Senate a remonstrance
against annexation, which was dated at Porto
Rico. The remonstrance was written in the
Spanish language and Was signed by several
Prominent civil nod military Dominican offi
cials and other Domincan citizens. This docu
ment alleges that "President Baez, for the
purpoSe of , accomplishing the annexation of
St. Domingo to the United States, a deed for
bidden by the CidFtit talon of the Republic of
Dominica, has caused many patriots opposed
to the project to ho sentenced to death and
executed, and has put others in • chains, im
prisoned many more, and imposed a rigorous
ostracism upon the majority of the most influ.
initial and notable citizens of the country.
That, for the same object of realizing his in
tentions, and in order to delude the Govern
ment and people of the United States with an
appearance of legality, he has forced Domini
cans to assemble for election, and :Aim
pellet], with threats, the greatest part
of the citicens to vote for annexation
against 'their convictions and the interests
of their country ; that the majority of the peo
ple are opposed to all foreign domination ; that
the sole object of Baez in the project is to con,
vent into specie large amounts of bills againsi .
the treasury.of the Republic, by their pay
ment to himself and ussociates by the United
States Government; that the annexation 'of
Dominica would result in grave ciimplications
for the United States, and in fatal consequen
ces for the sons of the soil, and that it would
be a violation of international law. There
fore the memorialists, in the name of them
selves and their count rpm n, solemnly protest
ngninst the treaty of annexation which has
been presented by the government of Presi•
dent Baez to the Cabinet at Washington."
The allegations set forth in this protest are
strong once, and they are entitled ton respect
tul and candid hearing W lieu the question of
annexation comes up fornction. It is report
ed that the Commissioners wile were sent to
St. Domingo will lie unanimously In favor of
annexation, but if the allegations set forth in
the protest presented by Mr. Sumner are true
it can lewdly be possble that they can have
been kept completely from the knots - ledge of
the Commissioners. And if the,Dominicatis
do not want to be annexed and life United
States is to lose rather than gain by' ntmexa
lion, there is certainly no haste about carrying
annexation through.
Tim Centennial Commissioners appointed
by Gov. Geary and the Pennsylvania Legis
lature met at Harrisburg on Tuesday evening
and elected Governor Geary chairman of the
commission and Colonel McMichael secretary.
Speeches were made by the Governor, and
others, appropriate to the occasion, and the
Governor, as chairman, was directed to repre.
sent to the Legislature the importance ()Dunk
ing a preliminary appropriation of 050,000.
A committee, consisting of the Governor,
Speakers Wallace and Webb, and Representa
tive Johnston, were appointed, to report on

ALASKA.
The Secretary of War has recently submit
ed to Congress some reports which contain
considerat& valuable information in regard to
Alaska. The reliable information which has
been furnished to the country in regard to the
practical value of our . Alaska purchase has
been very slight, and we arc glad to find in
these reports some facts which can he easily.
stated and understood. To our mind these.
facts do not quite sustain the rose colored
statements which were made in regard to the
resources of Alaska at the time the purchase
was under consideration, and as a money
making rnterprise we should not regard the
purelmee of Alaska a complete success. One
of these reports, submitted by Maj. Luding
ton, presents the following statements in re-
gard to the resources and inhabitants of the
country : The resources consist almost en
tirely of three articles—fur, fish, and lumber.
The former is by far the most Important, and
furs are obtained only by trading with Indi-
ans. The supply of fish is unlimited, and
companies have establish d depots at several
places, where fish are cured and packed, In
dians doing the work. Timber is very valu
able, but so far from market as not to be
available. The agricultural resources are
very scant; with great care a few potatoes,
turnips, and radishes have been 'grown. It
is sold there are places in the interior where
grain can be raised, but this is not certainly
known. Settlements are few and distant
from each other. There arc no roads and no
ovailablemilitary resources. Major Ludington
enumerates various tribes of Indians, his list
[feting in some respects from that obtained
4' Vincent Collyer duting his tour. Most of
1 , se tribes are friendly, and some of them are
partly civilized. They subsist on the profits
of the chase. Citizens at Shim are now on
comparatively friendly relations with the mil
itary. They are described as a low class of
serfs of most corrupt moral character. The
trouble formerly existing was caused by thq.
employment of citizen interpreters who were
personally interested in making unfair repre
sentations. The women are represented to be
degraded by vice, and the presence of the sol
diers tends to the further degradation of both
sexes. The priests of the Greek Church do
not do much for the elevation of the people,
us they arc not above appearing in public
grossly intoxicated. The Russian inhabitants
are anxious to be transported to some portion
of the Czar's dominions, and Major Luding
ton thinks it would be better for all parties if
they were sea away.
Another officer, Major Tidball, gives some
equally interresting statements concerning the
industries Of the country and the sources of
income. According to his report salmon Is
the principal fish taken, and of these 1,100
barrels were taken with nets around Sitka
Buy last year, and 700 barrels around Prince
of Wales Island. Arrangements have been
made to take 2,000 barrels in the latter vicini
ty next year. The fish is worth $8 per bar
rel, or $14,400,f0r the year's work. In addi
tion to this the fisheries yielded 4,000 gallons
of seal and dogfish oil, worth $2,400. The
salmon fisheries arc inexhaustible. The fur
trade has decreased every year since the
United States occupation. During the first
year of American rule this trade amounted to
$35,000 ; during the second, $20,000 , and last
year less than $40,000. The cause of this
decline is the better prices which the Hudson
Ilay Company pal : the Indians for skins. The
cost of occupation by the United Slates is
$9,388 n month, besides supplies, and is divl
ed as follows: army, $3,000 ; navy, $3,598 ;
revenue cutter, $2,200 ; custom house, $7OO.
The yearly expenses therefore of occupying
Alaska arc about $120,000, and the fish and
trade last year amounted to about $35,000.
At that rate of annual income find expendi
ture it will take a good while to wipe out the
national debt by the profits of the occupation
of Alaska. Major Tidball reports that there
are but two kinds of timber in the Territory,
row in quality to ~thnt of Washington and,
Oregon. The yellow cedar is valuable to
make chests, bureaus, &c., as it possesses
qualities destructive of moths. Some coal
has been discovered, but not in sufficient
quantities to be relied on for fuel. • The re
ports that rich mines of gold, copper &c.,
have been discovered are denounced as false.
The ice of the Territory is too porous to be of
value for export. Though not cold enough
to produce good ice, it is not warm enough
to make agricultural pursuits successful.
Wheat, rye and barley will grow, but pro
duce no heads. Corn will not grow at all.
The potatoes are too watery for table use, but
a few good turnips are raised. Cabbage and
cauliflowers, as well ns onions, grow, but
do not bulb .; an'd stock-raising cannot be
made profitable. The number of Americans
and Europeans in Sitka—more than , half of
all there are in Alaska—is 39 The Indian
population of 'the Territory is estimated at
about 8,800. The Indians are described as of
the most degraded kind, malicious and trou
blesome. The great want of Alaska,- accor
ding to this report, is a gunboat to keep these
Indians in order, and a strong garrison at
Sitka. According to these statements Alaska
is not a very inviting place to go to for settle
ment, and as agriculture cannot be prosecuted
there and the lumber trade cannot be profita
bly carried on it is difficult to see how the
country is to be developed and built up.
We are not surprised that the Russian inhabi
tants are anxious to return to Russia, and we
should judge that the first thing any one who
Iqund himself there would want to do would
be to get away. On the whole it seems to us
that we did not'get the greatest bargain in the
world when we bought Alaska, and we think
that a good degree of caution is advisable be
fore we enter into any more national real es
tale speculations.
RATHER a curious suffrage experiment has
lately been tried in lowa. The Registers at
Clarendon decided that women were entitled
to vote at the city election, and the names of
all women who had reached the voting age
were placed upon the voting lists. Some of
the• •• tyrannical hosbands" forthwith went and
erased from the lists the names or their "en
slaved Wives," and sonic of the women erased
their own names. The 511111 of the whole inat
ter mac that when election day came not a
solitary woman appeared at the polls to claim
the privilege of voting for city officers, and' the
men had thin,gs all their own way. Evidently
those women who had the right of suffrage
thus thrust upon them did not understand how
grossly they had been wronged in having been
so long kept away from t h e polls or they would
have hastened to deposit their votes. Mrs.
Stanton and Lucy Stone should ftt once go on
a mission to Clarendon, lowa, and endeavor to
get the women of that place in a &aline of mind
in which they will be willing to vote when
their nanu•s are placed upon the lists.
Tim. Washington dispatches mention a re
port which Is current there that Gen. Sickles,
United States Minister to Spain,has succeeded
in persuading the Spanish Government into a
willingness to sell Cuba and Porto Rico to the
United States for 4 , 100,000,000. " Such an ar
rangement would be a fortunate one for Spain,
for Cuba has not been a very profitable pos
session to Spain since the war commenced.
Formerly Cuba was the source froni which the
Spanish treasury was kept filled, but latterly
the Spaniards have had to strain every nerve
to raise money enough to keep the Cuban in
surgents from getting control of the "ever
faithful isle." It has cost Spain quite an ef
fort to become willing to sell Cuba at any
price, but that Is no especial reason why the
United States should purchase the Island. It
strikes us that we have land enough for the
present, and thatn better use for the national
loose change will be to apply it to the reduc

Tani estate purchases,
TARIFF TINKERING.
The House of Representatives on Monday
passed the bill for the repeal of the duty on
bituminous coal by a considerable majority.
The proposition will undoubtedly be defeated
in the Senate, and so the matter will remain'
as it is. We hays already spoken of the design
with which the "free coal" clamor has been
entered into, and of the effects which the re
moval of the ditty would have, and we are
surprised that our Congressmen should have so
little regard for the best interests of the people
of the United States as to carry through such a
mpasure. No other possible effect could result
from the removal of the duty on bituminous
coal than the depression of American industry
for the sake of building up the coal trade of
the British Provinces. The ruinous effect of
such a policy has been often dwelt upon in
these columns, and we should hesitate to refer
to it at this time lint tin• our desire that our
readers should fully understand
. the insidious
means by which the Free Traders are endeav
oring to undermine the Protective systent.
The men who have proposed the repeal of the
duty on coal have taken this means of getting
nn entering wedge inserted in behalf of Free
Trade, and although their plans will be blocked
for the present by the Senate, it is of the great
est importance that the friends of Protection
should show themselves !dive to the exigencies
of the situation. Pennsylvania has&t t een accus
tomed to stand as a milt in Congress in defence
Of 'reasonable and judicious protection to home
industry, but she stands so no longer. Two
at least of Our Democratic Congressmen, Dr.
Acker of this District, and Mr. Myers of the
Bedford District, voted on Monday with the
Free Trader,, and we suppose tliat, they will
always lie found upon that side of this great
and vital question. In voting as they did they
have expressed their willingness to see the coal
dealers of New Brunswick and Nova ScOtia
built up at the expense of American coal ope
rators and of American manufacturers who are
large consumers of coal. That is the logical
effect of the position which they have taken,
and the vote on Monday, although it will not
be able to effect anything, shows the spirit and
animus of the opponents of the Protection sys
tem. If the Congressmen can take no more
sensible action than this the sooner they ad
journ and return to their constituents the better
it will be lbr the country and all its industrial
MEM
lIENny D. Moont; has lately resigned his
place ns Collector of Customs at Philadelphia,
and there is considerable interest in political
circles in regard to the appointment orhis suc
cessor. The Philadelphia Congressmen are
understood to have presented the name of I).
P. Southworth for the appolntment,and Senn
tor Cameron favors the nomination of John

construction of the Rome,Selma and Dalton R.

urday and Sunday in Philadelphia ns the guest
of Mr. A. J. Drcxel,nnd it is supposed that his

lINALTD ANT) HOME: is the title of a new
monthly magazine published by W. R. De
Puy & Brother, 805 Broadway, New York.
The objects of the magazine are well indicated
by its title, and the Grst number is a very
valuable and readable one. It has a varied
and inviting table of contents, and besides its
longer and more elaborate papers there are
many very valuable hints and suggestions for
the 119ime circle. The announcements made
by tti publishers for future numbers promise
a good magazine, one which will be richly
worth the $1,50 per year which is the sub
scription price. The publishers promise "a
high toned, practical health journal, edited
not in the interest of any medical party or
clique, but which shall seek aid from all in
telliient accessible teachers, and if they make

one hundred miles further down the river Is it po . nt
Willett l would prefer to Palatka, ax the temperature is
more even and the air dry and braclog• Jlcllouvllle and
Eutarpriso aro located there. I should given decided
preference to Mellouville. It Is two miles arum river or

The blues to Florid might be better, out patients com
