I RED ELL, JR ALLENTOWN, PA., MAR. 13, 1 872 TOE merchants of Philadelphia arc thus far very much pleased with the condition of the spring trade and every indication points to an unusually prosperous season. UPON 1115 Ectirement from the office of Col lector of the Pelt of Philadelphia, Col. John W. Forney was given a complimentary ban quet, Ft iday evening at the Academy of Mus'e, by the merchants of that city. Among the 'distinguished guests present was President Grant, who arrived nt 10:22 and was greeted with the utmost enthusiasin. IN these days of investigations it is a pity that the secretsof that $BO,OOO business cannot In brought to the light of day. Custom hell oes, Quarantines, the Evans Embezzlement, the Missouri Bond Frauds, etc., etc., are all being inquired into and we do not see why Lehigh county might not be fashionable, too. We brag that we are an energetic people, al ways up to the times—but we cannot maintain such n reputation unless we have an investi gatton. We have no It now ledge that Will lead us to suppose that all the County have not been the most honorable men that ever lived. As a general thing they have stood high In the estimation of the people and we should be very sorry, indeed, if an investiga tion should prove that any one of them was unworthy of the great confidence reposed in him. But the fear of such a discovery should not kestraln usfrom having a th.trough, search ing investigation. SOMEBODY has interviewed Ex-Secretary Seward upan the Treaty question between America and England, and the result is that he expresses a national preference for the Johnson Clarendon Treaty which he prepared and which Iteverdy Johnson negotiated. Of the Treaty now tinder consideration Mr. Sew ard says :—I think it miens the door far the Untied States to present claims for direct com• pensmion fur the injury anti wounded pride or the nation, besides the claims for, damages or the citizens of the United States ; hut whether this is a just interpretation of the treaty seems to belong to the arbitrators to decide. I think the British govermuent cannot recede front the arbitration because of the claims we are insi.t• ing .n, nor do I think, on the other hand, that tile United States emild go on insisting or withdraw front !Ito arbitration if a majority of the arbitrators should reject their application for• direct damages to the graver- meat for the wounded honor of the nation." IT is-singular how an nnpretending little news item lon paper WM Failiclitiles coin' tete ly upset a whole year's elaborate argument in its editorial columns. P e r lintance. a %Vest ern paper W hICh, with General Cusiar, ti Neves the Indian to be quite incapable of eivi and which has by no means spokeow it h bated bre th upon the subject, the other day pub• lished in its news columns a brief description of the dedication of a church in a certain Indian village of the Stale, of vi hitch it said : "This community, which is ColaptMed al most entirely of Indium+, is in eminently re ligious one, and that it is so is principally due to the efforts of Mts. Peter Sagatoo, a young woman who left a home of luxury mid r•. fine. ment irt Massachusetts. to marry a young In dian chief." Of course is it not to be exec el ed, nor perhaps, indeed, it is desirable, that the example of this missionary -minded young wife should be gerterally copied ; but it puts a, very strong note of interrogation at the end of the question whether the 1110110,?8 which, with a few notable and encoura4ing exceptions, have until lately been employed toward 11 0 were exactly of the kind calculated to produce churches, Ist ins mid schools, and a thrifty and prosperous community, as the result? OUR TAX-RIDDEN PEOPLE Our Democratic cotemporary, the News, speaks very feelingly about tho " tax-ridden" citizens of Allentown. " Tax.rldden" is a favonto expression among the " outs" ImA a- days, just as though taxes were not necessary to carry on our municipal government. If you want streets opened you must have taxes ; you want property protected from theft or from fire, you must have taxes ; if yon want the streets lighted at night and your person protect ed from assault by ruffians, you must have policemen and they eat up taxes ; if pin want a Mayor to deal out justice, amt a treasurer to take care of the money,and auditors to see that 'he does not steal any ofit,and is high constable, and clerks to the councils, and money to 'pay the Chicago appropriation,ymi must pay taxes. Do they have no taxes in Encland ? If they do not, what a hiessing Royalty must be. There Is considerably more wind than sub stance about our high taxes. Snow u s the city of the same size, having the same advantages, affording Its citizens the same protection, that levies a lighter tax. Our City tax is ten mills and our School and Building tax thirteen mills, making a total of I wenty-three ni ills. The total tax on n $lO,OOO property is $239, while in Philadelphia the tax cn a propiirtyol the same value Is $lOllO. Wi certainly not the Worst taxed people ia the world. TEIE DEMOCRATIC PROGRAMME Whatever the final shaping of the pending presidential campaign 'may be it is plainly evident now that a very considerable portion of the Democratic party is more lama upon success than upon anything else. The ques tion which moat Interests thi men is how to defeat Gen. Grant, whose reneminatien they concede, and to • secure his defeat they are willing to take almost any ticket. The pcsition of this portion of the Democrats is very illustrated by a recent teller from Washington to the Louisville Courier Journal, and the following extracts from this letter ate of general interest as giving "au inside view" of the political situation as it is viewed by the Success Molar. price Democrat s. The writer says :—" The defeat of Grant should he made a sine qua non. All considerations must yield to this, and there is no thought of foul play toward the Liberal Republicans on the part of the Democrats. Precisely how this great ob ject is to be reached is not so clear. There are advocates or a general indorsement of Om Davis-Parker ticket, just; nominated by the Labor Reformers, as an available rendezvous forhe liberal elements. 'I here are advocates of simultaneous Democratic and Liberal Re. publican Conventions, an accommodation and a coalition. Thus far but three candidates have been named. The friends of Mr..lien l Melo, of Gen. Hancock, and of Mr. Grosheck; show the most cheerful readiness to ignore their personal predilections. Judge Davis, of the Stipreme Bench, and Judge Trumbull. of the Senate, are the favorites of the field as representatives of the Liberal Ronald leans ; whilst quite a number of the border State men, Including the Weirs, are fir Gratz Brown, as • the lender who, neat Mier Schurz, originated the movement and achieved fur it its latin•ls. Horace Giceley seems to have Most partisans for the second place on the ticket. In all like lihood the ticket of the Lli,rals w ill be Trum bull and Oreeley„,er Davis and Greeley, or Brown and Greeley. The Democratic leaders here are pretty generally of the opinion that a • coalition is not the thing. It conveys a hail traditional notion. It smells of bargain and corruption. It tines tint appeal In the popular confidence. If it lie true that we can not heat Grant, and the Liberal Republicans can so di vide the 'Radicals as to ; bent him, with . our help, it is thought best to let them manage the whole thing, select their own ticket and put it In the"field, leaving us our local organivit Inn In the States to choose, of Presidential tickets, that Whiehts least objectionable to us." SIMPLE ARITHMETIC. Am't 1 1 `. to r ream. School Food, $1,414 72 pd. of Tax, 1,283 87 " Collecting State and County Tax, 1,892 89 Salary of City Treasurer, 700 00 UIIZZI Total cost of Colleetlng and Disbursing. 1871, 4,991 45 Proposed coat of same, 1873, 1,5(10 00 Saltine. to the people udder pro posed 13111, $3,491 45 The above appeared In a professedly non• partizan sheet, called the Dolly News, on Sa',- urdny. It will be seen that, according to the Interpretation put upon the' supplement, the County and State Taxes were to have been pahl into the City Treasury. By what law of jmtice the County Commissioners were to have. been &limed front saying in what man ner their taxes sho.fiii be collected, it is hard to perceive, and we do not believe such a measure would besubmitted to by them. Tak ing off $1,593.80, and we have a saving of only $l,BOB 59 by the "proposed" supple ment to the City Charter,--lhat is according to the figuring of the financiers who have only recently entered the field. One of the easiest things In this world to do, is to sit in the solemn quietude of one's coun ting house, or amid phew of old papers, and figure out how this and that thing might, un der certain circumstances, be done better and with less expense. It requires four men wLose wages amount to $4000,t0 do a certain amount of work. Now if that wo•k be done by one man at $l3OO n year, there will be an annual saving or $2300. This theory has been put forward, we betieve, only in reference to the collection of taxes. It Its originators will further perfect their theory so that it can be applied to he setting of type, the manufacture Mottoes, or to any other kind of labor, they w ill undoubtedly make a fortune. The manner in wnich this project was started, the men who inaugurated it and those who 11()%11 defend it, Involve the whole thing •In suspicion. If a ll:ceiver and 'rreasurer existed, at certain seasons of the year •he would have in his Posst!sslon, for a period of two or three months, at least $40,000 or $50,- 000. , 'I could be used in bunking and by the .timple rule of simple arithmetic could be nude to yii Id a prollt•of thirty three per cent., —not to the city Dor to the taxpayers—but to the• gentlemen who manipulated it. That is believed to be one or the motives for seeking to make a change iu the present mode of col- lucking the tax. Hut will this theory of economy be sus tained by experience ? ➢lany experienced men think not. $1,808.511 tniulit be saved in salaries and commissions to the City treasury —in fact ii we had no treasurer, no receiver, and no collectors, we might save even more— bet the other side of the balance sheet might suffer seriously by a heavy decrease in the amount of taxes received. We believe, how ever, that no one objects to the cost of a City Treasurer. That officer seems to be held us indispensible. Ile now receives what city taxes people choose to pay into his hands and pays out whatever sums he is directed to pay by Councils, for which he receives $7OO per annum, and no one pretends that it is not cheap enough. A fter the people have paid up who pay floor taxes to avoid the penalty, the balance'outstanding is put into the hands of collectors who receive eight per cent. for do ing the work. True, their commissions are paid out of the penalties added to nap .id !axes, but are not these commissions paid by a large portion of the people, many of whom work very hard for tiled' living? According to the new project the • Receiver and Treasurer was erpected to receive the School and Building 'Fax, keeping both ac counts separate, and pay the orders on these funds ; he was to receive the City and Water taxes, keeping both accounts separate, and pay the orders on these funds ; he was to re ceive the State and County taxes, keeping both accounts separate, and pay them over to the Cou:dy Treasurer. The taxes, provided all the taxpayers settled wit bout being called upon would amount to about to about $120,000, and to be divided into six separate funds. For the not hful performance aids duties he would he required to give a bond tor at least $200,- 000- We would like to see the man who is willing to undertake this work, and give a bend I. so large a sum, for a salary of only $l5OO. If such a man c nal be fimnd, the next greatest curiosity would be the sight of the men who are willing to becrime the sure ties icr a man who would tie fool enough to undertake to do this work, which cannot be done by one man alone, not if he worked day and night. But the Supplement hinted at deputies ! Aye, there's one of the snakes in the bill. The bond of the Treasurer of the School Board is $BO,OOO and last year he received commissions amounting to $1,414.62. It is certainly worth something to the tax payers so have their kinds guarded against loss. In the . future there will be less to pay out, on Sc. mod of the cessation of building operations, and Mr. Saeger's salary will be sensibly di minished. Formsrly the tax collector for the School. Bard received 13 per cent., but the Commissioners raised to 5 per cent. and the School Boat d was compelled to do the same. A cheap collector isnot always the most economical. Perhaps the Board might have procured a man who would have agreed to do the work still for 3 per cent., but the amount that he failed to collect, or the slowness with which he paid the money over to the Treasurer, would have amounted to more that an offset against the difference in the amount paid out for commissions. Our city had some experience inilds matter. Sup pose we had a collector at seven or eigh4hun tired a year, who collected some twelve or tikeen hundred dr liars less tax than Mr. McLean now collects. how much would the city gain by the cheap man ? In Philadelphia all the taxes gn into one fund and the Councils appropriate, not what is re qaired, but what they choose to consider is re. paired, to meet the demands upon the Board of E , lncation. The result is that the teachers' warrants are not paid promptly and In order to keep body and soul together they are compelled to sell their warrants to brokers at a heavy dis count. Some of our Allentown Shytocks would gloat over such a state of things here, but we are certain it would be repulsive to the majority of the cit•zens. Another MI result 's log from the system adopted in Philadelphia I is, that when the 80.. rd of Education attempts to provide additional accommodations for the increasing number of children, their right to do so Is disputed by the Councils, a set of ^ en who never visit the schoo! houses and know nothing whatever of what the schools require. The result is that the public schools of Phila• del phis, which were once the pride of their city and the envy of every other section of the Union, are now far behind the age. "That Is another reason why we do not wish to follow the example of Philadelphia. The State School Law contemplates that the school foods shall be kept separate and apart from all other fonds. We believe the present members of the Board of Controllers have .proved themselves competent to take charge of them and expend them judiciously. Sortie people object to the expense incurred in ing the public schools to their present excellent I g.aplition. When rye remember how far Al. letdown was behind the time In school matters previous to 1866,and look at the progress made since that time, we cannot justly charge that the Board of Controllers has been extrava put in Its management., The Board has the consciousness of having done its duty. Des pite the ernakings of old fogies it has done that which the children will always have cause to bless them fur. They fear no restraint what. ever, and to put thepower lido a greater num ber of hands it was long ago proposed by one of the most prominent members that Legisla tion be tissed for glv ng the Boards of School Directors of Ore different Wards concurrent THE LEHIGH REGISTER', 'ALLEN'fOWN, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 13, 1872. power with the Board of Controllers. Among all the School Directors of the Six Wards and the members of the Board of Control there cer tainly can be found enough men who have the ability to understand the wants of our School District, and to devise the best and most eco nomical manner to collect the taxes and take care of the funds of the District. TOME who have been regarding the Labor Reform nomination for President and Vice President as opening the way for successful opposition to General Grant are bound to be disappointed. In nearly every representative quarter where hopes 'of the Cincinnati con vention and a successful combination of all the "anti-Grant" elements are entertained, these nominations are repudiated and treated with contempt. The Springfield Republican repudiates them ; the Cincinnati Commercial pronounces them a flat failure ; the Chicago Tribune accords them no favor, and in all quarters where there is the most Republican disaffection expressions of displeasure are heard. The Springfield Republican puts the matter in this way : ...Neither by personal experience, by previ ous association, nor by evidence of present personal sympathy have either of them estab lished a claim to such a nomination. On the contrary, their whole education and associa tion and order of mind are against what the Labor Reformers profess to lie after. And if anything were needed to show the inconsis tent and hypocritical character of such selec• lions, It is fouod in the haste. WWI which both gentlemen accepted the nominations, without waiting fairly to comider the platform with which they were accompanied. The flavor of a `put up Job iv, indeed, so strong about the wh o le atikir as to bring dishonor upon the" cause it r. prsents, and to morally weaken the candidates whom it has been made so in I consistently and inconsiderately to put Mr ward. 13oth pa ties to the transaction are I harmed rather than helped by It." It Is entirely certain that the first move by the opposition was a bad one, and that Grant Is all the stronger for it. VERY WELL SAID. Judge Davls,says the Boston Journal,makes a very good beginning for a Presidential cao oidate. According to a Washington dispatch "he hits recently expressed the opinion that the only way to defeat Gen.. Grant is by a combination of disaffected Repnblicans and the D.mocratic party ; but he is not at all san guine that such a combination is possible." The first part of this statement, though a trifle liunsbyish, is eminently thoughtful ; the lat ter part is every way worthy of the "judicial mind" of Judge Davis. Bid what has a La bor Reform candidate to do any way with such speculations as the above ? He is put forward to spread the eight-hour law, resis t the aggressions of capital, crowd the Chinese out of the country, etc., etc. It is ostensibly for purposes like these that the party of which he is the standard bearer have separatzol from the two old parties and formed a new organ ization. And yet we have their candidate al ready talking about affiliations with both of these old parties, or with fragments cf them, and expressing his fears that they will not be able to consolidate ! This implies trickery• somewhere Either the avowed purposes of Judge Davis's nomination were not the real ones, or else he is quickly proving recreant to his position. The people will not be blind to this singular development of an openine canvass, nor will they fail to mete out to its schemers substantial justice. Nevertheless, Judge Davis's observation re tains its force. If there is any way to defeat General Grant, it is unquestionably by a corn bination yf all parties outside of consistent Re publicans. The Democrats are confessedly impotent. They have had the advantage of picking flaws in two Republican administra tions and six Congresses, in the midst of a chaotic crisis, when measures had to be taken promptly, without precedentoftentlmes, with out due deliberation, and when, with the best cf intentions, many things would go wrong— and yet the once mighty Democracy have been all the while gradually sinking to decay and dissolution. They have no hope of tiding over the impending campaign, except by waiving their organization and joining in a general fusion of the' odds and ends of all malcontent factions. What a significant fact is this ! It is equally true, however, that i_is contents and resentments constitute au ex. ' tremely poor bond of union—a rope of sand. It Is barely possible, therefore; that the parties referred to by Judge Davis may be able to unite, but it will only be under the pressure or common fears, with little heart in it and none of the prestige of success. INCONSISTENT LEGISLATION Mr. Edmund Juessen, brother-in-law of Senator Schurz, lately wrote from Germany to the Chicago Tribune, that the temperance law lately passed by the Illinois legislature, has the effect of deterring Germans from emi grating to that State. In fact, the law was almost Immediately reproduced in the Deut sche Allgumeine Zeitung, Prince Bismarck's newspaper organ, as a specimen of the unjust and oppressive legislation to which Republican Americans are sometimes subjected, and there is no doubt, even without the testimony of Mr. Juessen, that upon some and perhaps upon a good many the warning produced the effect which was aimed at in the republication. Though we have ni.faithin the policy of mak ing men temperate either in drinking or in eating by legislation, we cannot but look with sonic indulgence even upon the mistakes of the good men who earnestly strive to arrests() enormous an evil as the one against which the Illinois statute is directed. The misfortune is that such mistakes not only fail to accom plish the objects aimed at, but both directly and in the way of reaction they increase the evil which they were designed to cure, and also work other mischief. One of the greatest calamities that can befall a civilized State or community hi a prevalent contempt of the laws, the popular belief even of a considerable minority that a law to which they are called on to submit is unjust and inexpedient, as the feeling entertained towards one statute is read ily extended to an entire code. Now no sen• Bible man can fail to perceive that the Illinois statute is open to the charge of gross inconsis tency and injustice. While the traffic in in• toxicating drinks Isnot forbidden hut legaliz• ed, the retail seller being required to give surety for conduct, to pay heavy license to the State and thus to contribute largely t 3 its rivenues, he Is at the same time held pi cuniffi rily responsible ffir whatever mischiefs may be dune or suffered by the consumer or the per son to whom he sells. Without professing er I feeling any special regard for the class, we cannot help thinking thatsuch inconsistency is simply monstrous, as It is thally difficult to perceive why, on the same principle, the man who sells firearms, or matches, or anything else with which mischief may be committed, should not be compelled to make compensa. tion for the mischief actually done. The truth seems to he that the British and American sentiment of indulgence for the tippler, and for the man who " takes too much," is at the bot tom of such legislation. We referred to the feeling a few days ago, in connection with the subject of temperance legislation in France. Instead of looking as we alight to do, with disgust and abhorrence upon the drunkard, we grow sentimental over his weakness and the greatness of his temptations, and reserve our disgust and abhorrence for the man who holds out to hiffi the bottle. • While this spirit prevails among us the young will never grow up with wholesome dread and shame of get ting drunk. The French law whose prod'. skins were lately reported, takes the only just and consistent ground, and if we must have legislation on the subject,let us enact a law by which getting drunk even once shall be treated es a crime, the magnitude of and penalty flir which shall depend upon repetition and-. the circumstances of the offender, About the ex pediency of such an enactment there may be doubts, but as to its justice and consistency there coal be no difference of opinion.--a Ftiff4ourgh Commercial. FLINGS AND SNEERS. It is constantly asserted—but constant as sertion does not establish a fact—that the Ile publicans who favor the renomination of the President are bitterly Intolerant of those who do not. Yet It would seem upon a careful reading of newspapers and 'speeches that the Republicans who Gppose the renomination have at least an Equal chance of expressing themselves, and that the chances are improv ed. It is, however, natural that these - who love the cause more than any man, and who believe that the welters of , the country de pends very much upon Republican success, should hear with dissatisfaction unmeasured denunciation of the Administration and of all who support it. Why should every sneer at the President be assumed to b ; sincere and unprejudiced, and every suspicion cast upon the admit.istratlon most justifiable? Nan In. el:illation against the Chief Magistrate is in dignantly challenged or repelled, " What I" is the lofty reply, '• is this a Roman Ctegar, who can do no wrong ?" No, he is not a Roman Creser, but he is an American gentle man entitled to fair play. The people of the country who do not per sonally know the President must judge him by his words and acts. It is a skillful soph istry which charges him with every evil that may appear in the Administration, and refuse hint the credit of all the good. He is a crimi nal or a cipher, as the exigency of his oppo nents may demand. "But why is it that cer tain gentlemen are known as his friends, and certain others as his enemies?" Is a quo scion often asked; "and why, when his policy Is opposed, are some opponents treated as ene- Mira while, others still rernui.. friends ?" The reply is not far to seek. Some of his warmest friends opposed the San Domingo treaty, but they opposed it as friends. They represented it as n mistake of policy, upon which there could be natural and harmonious differences of opinion. The result showed that it Was not mere opposition to his policy which occasion• ed alienation. But whi.n his m o tives and character are impugned in opposition, why should there not be feeling upon his part?. A President must be silent when he is aspersed. Is it not all the more a duty of honor in party opponents not to asperse hint ? So cerodui Senators are warmly, even coo. emPtuously, opposed to civil service reform, which the President facore. But their rela tions probably continue friendly, although it is clear that if they denounced him as the root of al: official corruption those relations could not fail to he disturbed. A President, It Is said, ought not to quarrel. But has a Sen ator, the constitutional adviser of the Presi dent on many occasions, no similar duty ? There are Senators who oppose as well as who favor his policy of civil service reform who are upon friendly toms with the Presi dent. That point is not determined by sytn pat by with his views. There arc other Sen• store who honestly think and frankly say that the President disgraces hts dike. Is it surprising that they are not upon friendly terms with him, even if they are friends of civil service reform? The'country can also easily. understand that a thousand tales are told of the President which are simply false. They are repeated and emphasized and enlarged until they are accepted ns true, and one such fact, as It is called, is supposed to indicate a myriad more of the same kind. There is, for instance, the dull slander about the Sea stone quarry. it represents the President as deeply Inter. ested in a quarryfor which-contracts for gov erntnent works are obtained by his influence, which are enormously profitable to him. This is the story industriously repeated. The fact is that six or seven years ago General GRANT Invested some money—which he believes no body alleged to be dishonestly earned—iw stone quarry, from which he bas never receiv any divalend whatever. We have:heard the same kind of story told of General Looms in in regard to some Chicago lots. "He grew rich in the army, did he ?" asks Mrs. Candour, with a shrug of her moral shoulders. No, madame ; he invested In land game of his small savings from hie general's pay. The BUM was very small and the termsof payment very easy nod the land rapidly rose in value; and, as every man who honors one of the bravest and most skillful soldiers of the war will be glad to know, the general bus the legitimate benefit of I is haTain. We do not believe tltst the people of the United States hear with patienc't these 'laces. sant flings at a President whom the most club orate ingenuity has fail , (I to stain even with suspicion. He is exhorted to conciliate and to " have peace," and we are told that other Presidents did not permit quarrels. How was it with President VIEIICE and Mr. Douoi.as, and with Mr. DOCOLAB and President BUCIL ANAN P Mr. CAL HOUN withdrew from Tres{ dentdsoxsogt.

It may be his misfortune, but we dodbt if the country will charge it upon him as a fatal fault —Harper's Weekly. How Long is Protection Needed ? . John Stuart Mill, with a degree of fairness and candor that we look for In vain among the British organs of free trade in thiscountry is constrained to admit that in a new country like the Bilked States, protective duties for the encouragement of manufactures may sometimes he justifiable (Joy and even Adam Smith make similar admissions), since the manufacturing superiority ()font; country over another often arises from the fact of beitig sooner in the field ; but while he allows of pro. tective duties as an experiment, he urges that protection should not be continned too long, if the manufactory should not provesuccess ful. We are often asked how long a time we need protection in order to ascertain whether manufactures wit succeed her or not. While we do not admit the principle that the indus try of a country has no right to ask for pro tection, except merely as an experiment, we would be willing to compromise with the free trailers on far less time titan England or France require to build up their great Indus tries. Our industry has never been allowed a tariff at all favorable for any great length of time, and it Is really surprising that our manufac hirers have succeeded as well as they have. The favorable protective tariff of 1824 was "Improved" in lour years, and knocked in the head In four years more. 'I he protective tar iff 1842 was allowed to have but four years, when it wes slaughtered by Bob Walker's ; and the protective tariff of 1801, which carried us through the war, wail sadly crippled in nine y ors, and Is seriously threat en. d by enemies and 'Mae friends with total destruction in 1872, In eleven years, thelong. est lifetime enjoyed by any tariff for protection In this country.
