Experience and observation cunnrm the-teacliiugs of couiniOQ HJtise in proving the inestimable value of home markets, to farmers, and the saving effected' by them .when consumers can be found near their doors, instead of be ing, sought points thousands of tniles dis tant, j ln,18GU the' Uuited States contained more . than . -2, 044,000 , farms i and .140,4tX) mauufuctories employing .1,040,349 umle and 270,879 female bauds a total of 1,311, 246, ;who, with thq fainilies dependent upon them, feonsumed ah amouut ot fooil and raw materials supplied by . agriculturists that casta into insignificance, Our exports, which after all, are sent abroad ; simply be cause the: neccshities of other countries re quire them and find here thecheapest source of supply, and ,not on account of the extent of our purchases from them. , The free traders; propose to benefit the agricultural interest by destroying the home market fur nished by domestic manufacturers, without seusibly. increasing, the foreign demand and the ; inducement Lthey offer in a slight reduction in the price of some of the arti cles imported, which a reduction of the tar iff would effect.. All sagacious farmers, how cier, will readily see that if, . ignoring tbe general welfare of the country, they consult only their,iudividual interests, a more sui cidal "penny-wise and ? pound foolish" poli cy could not be adopted. -., r In 1810 the gross product of American manufactures .was only $193,614,471, or, making allowance for omissions in returns, ?2(0,000,000. In I860 they reached the enormous aggregate of $1,885,861,676 ; ;or, as minor establishments were not reirted, at least $2,000,000,000. - Our population in the interval had multiplied fbur-and-a-half-fold, but our manufactures ten-fold ! ; At this rate of increase we will soon be in a position'.to. supply all our domestic t wants, and hid defiance to foreign ' competition. Hut as, in the meanwhile, we need large revenues to defray the interest of the na tional debt and our increased national ex penditures, it is vitally important that taxes should be levied in such a manner as will render tlie most effective assistance iu the development of our industrial interests, so that profitable employments for out eitizens may be increases and complete national in dependence ehieved : Letters from ' ofEcers of the freedmen's bureau in Louisiana show that the militia in that State are organized into patrols for the purpose of scouting the country and forcing the freeJmen to remain upen the ' planta tions. Near Shreveport they are enfor cing some of the most odious features of the old slave system. In one instance thor gave ten, in another thirty, and in another three hundred lashes. Three freedmen's shool hou?es were destroyed by a mob in the parish of St Mary and in Thibodeaux. In the parish of Lafourche a lady employed in teaching a school of adult freedmen-was driven from her work by brick bats used by a mob. The civil authorities are Dot pro tecting the freedmen, and the freedmen's bureau is their only source of protection. A country chap who recently visited the city for the first time, gives his views of ladies in this way : "Somewhere in every circumference of silk and velvet, that wrig gles along, th&re's alters a woman, I sup pose ; but how much of the holler is filled in with meat, and how much is gammon, the spectator dun no. A feller marrys a wife, aud fiuds, when it cums to the pint, that he has nuthing in his arms hut regu lar anatomy. .- Ef men ' is gay deseevers, wot'a to be said of the femail .that dresses for a hundred and forty weight, but hasn't reely as much fat on her a. would ' grease a griddle? all the apparant plumpness con sisting of cotton and whalebone. : . . - ; . ; No part of the : Governmental policy of France and JSngland requires greater care and vigilence than that devoted to the main tenance and extension . of foreign markets for their : manufactures. The - loss ; of any important branch of their trade causes great distress and embarrassment.. - In theUnited States there is no- necessity for adopting i a tortuous and troublesome system to secure a similar end., Our artisans need only the opportunity of supplying the- demands of our own country; to make the nation , rich and prosperous, and to have a long line of successful business establishments built up, with will react beneficially upon each other, and upon all American interests . r ; . , . ; ;. .f ;. A five-dollar note of the national currency was detected at the treasury yesterday ; hav ing been transformed by pasting; into a fifty.
